be seen from the room.
Il don't want too much hight In
here, either" said Arrelsford. AS he
spoke he blew out the candles In the
two candelabra which had been placed
on the different tables, and left the
large, long room but dimly Illuminated
by the candles in the sconoes on the
walls.
Mrs. Varney watched him with fas-
cinated awe. In spite Of herself there
still fingered Il hope that Arrelsford
might be mistaken. Thorne had en-
listed her interest, and he might un-
der other conditions have aroused her
matronly affections, and she was hop
ing against hope that he might yet
urove himself innocent, not only be-
cause of his personality but as well be-
cause the thought that she might have
entertained a spy was repugnant to
er. and because of the honor of the
Dumont family, which was one of the
oldest and most important ones in the
western hills of the Old Dominion.
Arrelsford meantime completed his
preparations by moving the couch
which Caroline Milford had placed be-
fore the window back to the wall.
Nov, Mrs. Varney," he said, STEP
ping far back out Of sight OF the win
dow, will you open the curtains? DO
it casually. carelessly, please, so as
not to awaken any suspicion If you are

They are all at the back OF the
house. They came In tho back way,
and the field in front is absolutely
clear, although have men concealed
in the street TO stop anyone who may
attempt to escape that way"
Mrs. varney walked over to the
window and drew back the curtains.
She stood for a moment looking out
into the clear, peaceful quietness of a
soft spring night The moon was full,
and being somewhat low shone
through the long windows and into
the room. the candle light not being
bright enough to dim its radiance. Her
task being completed. she turned, and
once more the man who was in com
mand pointed across the hall toward
the room on the other side.
Are those women in there YETI"
he asked peremptorily.
Yes"
Where liz the key?'
Mrs, Varney left the room and went
to the door.

Mrs Yarney hurried toward her and
caught her outstretched hand.

the girl.

BODY FoUND-MYSTERY

The police believe there is a mys-
terry connected with the finding of the
body of James M. Powell, freight
agent of the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy, in Kedzie avenue, near the
drainage canal. A bullet was in his
head and a revolver lay by his side.
Though the circumstances lead to
a suicide theory, the police are not
satisfied. Powell was a widower, SO
years old. He lived with his sister
in-law, Mrs. David Mccoy, 1926 Saw
yer ay. She could give no reason for
either suicide or murder. His gold
watch and small amount of coin
were not touched.

One gent, with breath that suggest
ed a nearby saloon, was picked up.
while he was loudly proclaiming that
he was the "only and original muir
derer of the tango girl" After good
nights sleep he was allowed to, go
home and stand trial before his wife.
Meanwhile the police have secured
valuable clues in several postal cards
found in the dead woman's trunk.
The DuPage county authorities still
stick to their bunch that the woman
was killed by hired assassin.

this week and am coming here to
live your life; to be housed, clothed,
fed, treated in all respects like one
of you. I want to see for myself ex-
actly what your life is like, not as
viewed from the outside in but from
the inside out.
"Of course. ] am not so foolish as
to think that I can see it from exactly
your point of view Manifestiy a man
cannot be real prisoner when he
can at any moment walk out; and
spending a few hours a day in a cell
is quite a different thing from the
weary round of weeks, months. years;
nor is prison a matter of clothes. They
cannot make a convict any more than
they can make "a gentleman.

an American may understand some
things about Paris which are not so

Gets Its Name.

Story OF How an Ohio City Came 70
Gets Its Name.
About 100 years ago Il little settle.
ment existed at the mouth of the Mau.
NEE river. Its name. Port Lawrence,
was given in honor of the great naval
commander. The little town was not
prosperous. and FIVE years later Major
Suckney. an enthusiastic but eccentric
man. founded another settlement right
next 10 Port Lawrence and called his
village NiStuia. Both settlements We're
stimulated somewhat by the COMPETE
ton. but neither proSpered sufficiently,
and one year later ii was proposed 20
unite the towns.
Everything was easily arranged ex-
cept the name. and here trouble arose.
Major Stickney insisted that the new
community accept the name of his
part. Vistula. but the citizens We're not
prepared 10 have name thrust upon
them by one whose peculiaritieS led
him to name his two children No. l.
family life was enough to cause any
suggestion from him to be received
skepticaliy.
The discussions were many and heat
ed when Willard Daniels, n merchant
of Vistula. suggested that they adopt
the name of Toledo. the ancient capital
of Spain. He explained that the word
originally was "ToledOth.'' from the
Hebrew. meaning Mother of People,
and Mr.. Daniels said they ought to be
able to come together under such s
title of peace. Another reason was the
remarkable nearness in ATTITUDES OF
both places. in Spain and in Ohio. the
actual difference being only little
more than one degree. Further argu,
ments were that it was pleasant in
sound, easy to pronounce and that nc
city of the western continent as yet
. bore the name
His reasoning prevailed. and the
united towns assumed the name To
ledo. That they remained true to il
is shown in the fact that their first
permanent newspaper was called the
Toledo Blade. in recognition of the fact
! that Toledo, Sapin. was famed all over
the world for the quality of the sword
blades which it produced. - Ladies
