ing. She was one of the big discov-
cries of the past two years. But she
had worked hard for her success.
Ten years of barren poverty and I'M
productive labor lay behind her. Cold
as ice, they called her. Even in
stageland, that prolific center of Cos
sip, her name had never been asso-
ciated with that of any man. And
yet she had temperament, she was
superb in emotional parts. She SEEM
ed to have lived through and lived
down something, so that the fires
now glowed where formerly they had
blazed, and under an exterior that
was faultlessly serene.
There must have been big expert
ences in Miss Clay's life, " said an old
critic to his friend once.
There had been, the biggest of all
experiences, because the most uni
versal. She had been married and
her honeymoon had lasted eleven
days.
They had been days of delirious
happiness both for herself and for
the young painter, Lawrence Muir
doch. It had been almost a runaway
match, except that neither had any
body to run from. He was scene
painter, and had once been spoken
of as a coming man in his profession.
Lucia was then just a stage-struck
girl. She had played the ngenue's
part in one or two productions cred
itably, and they possessed two hun
bred dollars between them. On the
strength of this they we're married.
1t was an old, eighteenth century
cottage in which they had elected to
spend their honeymoon. Lucia would
remember every detail of it as long
as she lived; the clematis over the
door, the patch of everblooming
roses, the perky sweet williams along
the gravelly walk. And their happi-
ness had been intense for eleven
days.

mating that he was out of the political

conducive of desire to remain there.
He has been ignored and Snubbed by

1T is long time off yet, but there
seems nothing so certain in the future
as that Col. Roosevelt will be the nomi-
nee of the Republican party for Presi-
dent in 1916. that is if that party is in
existence at that time, and he will be
permitted to write his own platform.
The leaders know that there is not an
old-line Republican who can stand a
ghost of show for election and they
will take Roosevelt in preference to GER
tain prospect of losing out as before.
Republicans at Washington are discuss
ing the question and it seems the con-
census OF opinion that whether they
want him or not. strategy and chance
for look-in demands concessions. So
therefore we predict that the Colonel
will walk off with the nomination,
which we hope and believe would do
him no good.
