It had been at the older mans re-
quest that he was made Eleanor's

Why" he asked. watching Eleanor
narrowly. 'why do you think that I
am not cynical at heart?"
Because you have shielded both

handed me a double line of Chinese

Looking back now, that secret fur

aced by wandering train bands, the

pie, the scaling of broken wall, the
finding of suitable hiding place up
near the roof-it Is all like dream

Now this was what happened: The |
brother. an artist, had gone to Annoy,
one OF the sacred towns Of Tuam ocI |
cupied by an exclusive tribe and 100
miles distant. He had been discover
ed in the temple of the great god,
Honghi, sketching its details. This |
was sacrilege. He had been seized,
imprisoned and was to die by the |
knotted rope on a certain great tribal |
festal day, which was the following
Friday, to propitiate the deyotees of |
the offended deity.
Miss Lisle had appealed to the con-
sular agent, the local authorities.

doomed man. ! quieted her frantic |

rescue her brother.

dubious one. All along the path were
difficulties, risk. danger. I could think
only Of the sad pleading face, of |
the impending doom of her devoted
brother. Ihad to find confidant. 1t

"The Annoy" observed my loyal,

CHICAGO STORES ARE
EXPECTED TO RAISE
GIRLS WAGES SOON.

Chicago, April 3.-A voluntary
increase in wages paid women in big
State street stores may resulet from
a conference next Monday between
merchants an dmembers of the IIIi-
nois Senate White Slave Committee.
A scale containing a provision for a
minimum wage will be presented to
the merchants and they will be
asked to subscribe to it voluntarily.
This plan. members Of the Senate
Committee say, will he more effect
i've than the adoption of a wage
law. Lieutenant Governor O'Hara
decided to call the conference after
several girls under Ia had told of
their struggle to- live on meager
wages. At this hearing Victor Reis-
enfeid, superintendent of garment
making factory, said he believed 81
week was sufficient for girl to
live on.

goods that the inhabitants had been
able to save from their homes.
The river continued to rise today
and by nightfall was near the 59.5
point, ; feet over the high mark of
1851, when 80 persons were
drowned by the snap of the ievee.
With the river still rising, n
swift current played through the
town. A few men. getting about in
boats, fear greater damage. The
worst fear is that the suddenness OF
the current will sweep through some
unexpected section and complete the
work of devastation.
The Ohio this morning was a river
gone mad. 25 or 80 mile gale
sweeping the river churned the wat
ers and billows that approached
oceanic proportions.
A 8 foot motor boat that breasted
the ten mile pool of foaming waite,
from Dekoven, KY, was tossed about
like rubber ball.
No one can tell what part of the
three quarter mile levee stands as all
is under foot or more of water. Il
is known that great section went
out before the water climbed over
the treastworks. The Ohio swept
through the great gap with tre-
mendous velocity. 1t is not i'm
possible that the Ohio river will
form new channel through the
town.
Reports of great destruction
caused by the high water in nearby
towns are received here At Union

tlons amounting to 1900 pounds

river, is wiped off the map. The
town hall and all churches were car
ried down the river. 200 people fed
to the hills, where they are being
cared for.
Dekoven, Ky. a mile south and
normally two and half miles from
the river, is marooned except for
boat communication. Railroad traf-
fic is impossible.

SCIENTISTS ALSO DISAGREE

Washington, d. C., April 3.-Each
spring lessons are brought on the
face of the waters to the people and
to their representa- tatives in Congress-.
There Is always the promise of pre-
ventive action. Congressman indi-
vidually are promising that this
year there will be action to avoid
repetition in the future of such
floods as those which have occurred
in the last 10 days. When Congress
takes up the question it will find a
dozen doctors all ready to disagree
on this great hydropathic subject.
Senator Newlands Of Nevada has
plan, he has had Ii for long time.
1t may be good, but perhaps it will
not stand the pressure of the waters.
The trouble with all these schemes,
men here say. is that they must be
put to the test, and that when the
test comes and then something else
must be tried after the floods have
taken their toll of lives.
Gen William H. Bixby, chief en-
gineer the army. does not believe
that a system Of reservoirs can pre-
vent food disaster in the Middle
West. Gen. Bixbyis one of the first.

put into layman's language is that
the rivers can be prepared to do the
work intended for them by nature
and that they can be hemmed in,

den surplus of water.
Prof. Willis L. Moore, who is still
chief of the Weather Bureau, thinks
that the reservoir system mi ght be
practicable except for the fact that
reservoirs always are standing men,
aces which may through weakness
and in a case of abnormal precipita~
tion give away and pile disaster on
