old days to be punished by having a
canting reformer for a son! Well.
why don't you go over to them?"
Just as you say" answered Tom
with philosophic shrug of the shoul-
ders. Good night"
Where are you off to, now?"
grunted Blake indifferently. albeit
there was CLINT of wistfulness in the
half-shut, steely old eyes.

moving away.

hurt your spotless reputation to be
seen dining here with black

and there was a note of hurt in his
voice that somehow reached the far
hidden and tortuous recesses where
Jim Blake's battered old heart was
supposed to be.
WELL" vouchsafed the father
grumpily, maybe that was just a tritie
swift. Look here, lad" he went on, a
soft, almost tender tone creeping into
his dry voice, as he laid his hand on
Toms shoulder, I'm the only father
you've got And you may as well
make the best Of it,
You're the only father l want, dad.

Tom.

Don't worry" returned Tom. smil-

to be wrapped up in politics as he u.s.

"No!" cried Blake. his face alight
with pleasure. Good for her! When?"
AT eight o'clock. But she didn IT
bother to mention whether 1t was
eight this evening or eight to-
morrow morning. Mark was just 60
ing to call her up on long distance to
find out, when we happened to meet
Standish. And suppose the prospect
OF clash with Standish quite drove

You're wrong there" dissented

DANIELS SCORES
REACTIONARIES
"Rsal Trouble With So-Called
Hystsria, IL That Il Hurts"
He Tells Hearers

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-"Reac'
tionarfes who think to weaken the
advocacy Of progressive measures by
declaring that they are the products
Of 'hysteria,' were roundly de-
nounced by Secretary Daniels Of the
navy, In an address at the dinner
Of the North Carolina Society Of New
York.
"A few days ago." Mr.. Daniels
said. "a distinguished educator from
southern state, In speech In New
York, declared that such new and
progressive measures as the initiative
and referendum were revolutionary.
Another distinguished authority, q
statesman and an educator. referred
to certain modern American political
doctrines as wild theories" which
common sense and wise experience
demand be rejected as the result of
hysteria.'
The real trouble Is that this So
called 'hysteria' hurts. 1t keeps party
pledges, it does not take from labor
the bread 1t earns, 1t makes protec-
tion-built wealthy pay income tax. 1t
elects senators direct from the peo-
pie. They call 1t hysteria because It
means we can have no more sena-
tors from the New York Central
railroad, no more senators from the
Southern Express Co.; no more SEN
ators from the New York, New
Haven & Hartford railroad; no more
senator's from the Standard OIL
trust.

$l2 taken from the cash register,
while John Sharp, clerk. and a
Negro cook. were held up at the point
Of the mans revolver.
Police believe that the young men
who formed the target for neatly 20
shots from the officers reYolvers,
were implicated in the recent
hold-ups. and declare that there Is
plenty OF reason for the belief that
the pair may have been the ones who
figured in the killing OF PatrOlman
Thomas F. Madden.
During the gun battle, one OF the
fugitives stumbled and fell, as Sergt.

Koch, of Bethune station, sent a regu-

with two revolvers when he tried to
question the men. He was ordered
to back up to his motorcycle, mount

The hold.up OF Pratt's restaurant
was q bold affair, executed In the
same way as the other recent hold
ups. including that of Rheaume Bros.
restaurant, No. GIL WOodward-ave.,
where SIS was taken from the till.
One bandit walked into the restau-
rant proper, from q darkened cafe
portion, at lis o'clock, and leveled
q revolver at John Sharp, and q Ne
gro cook, ordering them to move to
the front Of the store, or be pumped
full of lead" They moved quickly,
and the bandit helped himself to $12
