CHAPTER vIII-(Contlnued).

Raoul dressed in frantic haste, pre-
pared to forget his distress by fling
ing himself, as people say. into the
vortex Of pleasure" Alas, he was a
very sorry guest and. leaving his
brother early, found himself, by ten
O'Clock in the evening. in cab, be-
hind the Longchamp race-course.
1t was bitterly cold. The road
seemed deserted and very bright I'M
der the moonlight. He told the driver
to wait for him patiently at the cor
ner of a near turning and, hiding him
self as we'll as he could, stood stamp
ing his feet to keep warm. He had
been indulging in this healthy exer-
else for half an hour or so, when a
carriage turned the corner Of the road
and came quietly in his direction, at
a walking pace.
AS 1t approached. he saw that a
woman was leaning her head from the
window. And, suddenly, the moon
shed a pale CLEAN over her features.
"Christine!"
The sacred name of his love had
sprung from his heart and his lips.
He could not keep it back. He
would have given anything to with
draw 1t, for that name, proclaimed in
the stiffness of the night, had acted
as though It were the preconcerted
signal for a furious rush on the part
of the whole turnout, which dashed
past him before he could put into ex-
ecution his plan OF leaping at the
borses' heads. The carriage window
had been closed and the girls face
had disappeared. And the brougham,
behind which he was now running,
was no more than black spot on the
white road.
He called out again: "Christine!"
No reply. And he stopped in the
midst of the silence.
With a lack-luster eye, he stared
down that cold, desolate road and into
the pale, dead night. Nothing was
colder than his heart, nothing half so
dead; he had loved an angel and now
he despised a woman!
Raoul. how that little fairy OF the
north has trifled with you. Was 1t
really, was 1t really necessary to have
so fresh and young a face, fore
head so shy and always ready to Gov
er itself with the pink blush OF mod
esty in order to pass in the lonely
night, in a carriage and pair, accom-
panied by a mysterious lover? Surely
there should be some limit to by.

She had passed without answering
his cry. And he was think.

years old
His valet found him in the morning
sitting on his bed He had not un.

sight OF his face, that some disaster
had occurred Raoul snatched his let.
ters from the mans hands. He had
recognized Christine's paper and
handwriting. She said:

INVADE
NATIONS CAPITAL
Rights Amendment To the
Constitution.

WASHINGTON, July S1.--An army
of peace invaded Washington today
and laid seige to the nations legisla-
ture. The object of the attacking
forces" was complete suffrage for wo-
men to be granted by constitutional
amendment. The demonstration was
the greatest display of suffrage
strength the capital city has yet seen.
fair invaders had engaged" each
representative and senator in a per-
sonal appeal for the immediate con-
sderation. and passage of a constitu-
tional amendment which will place
women on political equality with men
throughout the United States
Delegations representing every state
in the union were in the line of march.
The paraders were afoot on horse
back. in carriages and on floats in
classic costumes. When the parade
began there was every indication that
the Washington police department
would not repeat the mistake it made
on March 3. last, when insufficient
patrolling of the street permitted
hoodlums to break up the parade by
swarming into the floats and carri-
ages in which young women and eld-
erly women alike We're trampled and
in some cases subjected to insult.
Signatures Secured.
The paraders made the pilgrimage
to Washington by automobile, by
boat and by train Along the way
they gathered thousands of sigma
lures to a petition urging congress to
immediate favorable action on the
proposed measurs to give women the
vote. On floats representing the va
rious states the women and girls
were costumed to represent the fig
ures in the seals of their respective
states.
! Early this morning the suffrage
| forces were modified at the little
/ Maryland town of Hyattsville. eight
miles from the capitol building May
or Harry Shepard delivered an ad-
dress of welcome when the pilgrims
reached the town park where a grand
review was conducted by Miss Alice
Paul and Miss Lucy Burns of the Ma
tional Congressional Committee. The
suffrage co,ors were run to the tor
of a tall Flagstaff the moment the frs
delegation, travel-worn, stepped into
the reviewing grounds An orderly
crowd of several thousand witnessed
these preliminaries.
Among the para Hers were Miss
Jeanette Rankin. president of the
Montana Suffrage organization. with
party which came all the way by
automobile: Miss Harriet May Mills

tion, who has just completed tou1
