SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING CHAPTERS
The story opens in the trying DAYS OF
81. when the North and South were ar
rdyed in deadly conflict and family ties
were torn asunder over the grave oues-
tions which split the nation in twain.
While at Harvard Philip Grafton, q young
Virginian, becomes the afhanced husband
Of Kathleen kirkwood. whose sympathies
are all with the North. When Grafton
announces his intention to bear arms for
the Confederacy a stormy scene ensues.
and results In Philip being sent away
with no hope OF ever claiming the North
ern girl as his bride.
Heavy hearted. Philip goes back to Vir-
ginia and enlists In an infantry regiment.
with secret hope that there, perhaps,
he may soon md surcease for his sorrow
in a speedy bullet from the enemies
guns. Before Joining his regiment Philip
visits his old home and finds his guardian.
Judge Lewis. In a deplorable state OF
health. The Judge has a bad attack. and
believing that he Is about TO die. gives
his granada lighter Ariadne into Philips
care, with the request that he become her
husband
Although Philip Is unable to obllterate
the memory Of Kathleen Kirkwood. he
consents to marriage with Arisdne and the
ceremony is performed at the bedside OF
Judge Lewis just few minutes before he
passes away.
Philip places his young bride in the care
of an old friend in Richmond and joins
his regiment on the field Of battle.

WOULD BUILD PONDS
UPON KANSAS FARMS
Governor Hodges Plans "Pond
Day. to Save Water Needed
When Drought Comes.

KANSAS CITY. Mo-, Aug. l7.-Gover-
nor Hodges. of Kansas. announced tina.
he is planning pond day for the
last Of this month
The worst situation that has con-
fronted Kansas In many years is with
US now said the governor. We must
take care Of the future by saving the
water that falls In the winter and
spring months This situation should
never confront US again.
Il believe we could have a week Of
pond building in Kansas that would
bring results There ought to be 10000
ponds In Kansas full OF water now
Il know of some good ponds that have
four or five feet of water in them and
there Is no shortage Of water on those
farms. I am going to try to get a pond
built on each farm this fall 10 store the
winter water"
Rains Bring Brief Relief.
Scattered showers throughout Kansas
brought temporary relief from heat. hut
rains were not lasting and the mercury
again rose, but not SC high as before.
In this city there were two deaths
from the heat A shower Of fifteen
minutes duration sent the temperature
down for a short time. 1t was the
llTSI since July
In the north end OF the city, where
poor people live, an ice famine pre-
walls. Many deaths of infants in this
quarter during the last few weeks
have been attributed to lack of Ice. A
fund has been started to relieve con-
ditions. -.-.....
Social Functions Halted.
In Topeka all social functions have
been postponed. and the clubwomen and
society leaders have deserted regular
meetings and gatherings Pastors Of
churches have announced they intend TO
cut short their sermons, and the hours
of Sabbath services have been reduced.

Northern Oklahoma has attained great
relief through showers the past two

Many states have surrounded the in

trust companies of the United States
