friend. while we're together. and after
we part"
1T doesn't take new bridge to
make that come true" he declared.
She looked at him solemnly. DO
you understand the responsibilities OF
being a friend? A friend has TO as
sumo obligations, just as when a mans
elected to office, he must represent his
party and his platform"
''I'll stand for you'll" Abbott cried
earnestly.
will you? Then I'm going to tell
you all about myself-ready to be sur
prised? Friends ought to know each
other. In the first place, am eighteen
years old, and In the second place I
am a professional lion-trainer, and in
the third place my father is-but
friends don't have to know each 9TH

enough to start with"

emotions, for his face showed moth

girl, a lion-trainer, 1ungler. I'm the
famous Fran Nonpareil and my car
nival company has showed in most Of
! the towns and cities Of the United
States. It's when I'm in my blue silks
and gold stars and crimson sashes,
kissing my hands to the audience, that
I'm the real princess"
Abbott was unable to analyze his
real emotions, and his one endeavor
was to hide his perplexity. He had
always treated her as IL she were old
er than the town supposed, hence the
revelation Of her age did not so much
matter; but lion-training was so re-
mote from conventions that it seemed
in way almost uncanny. 1t seemed
to isolate Fran, to set her coldly apart
from the people Of his world.
I'm going home" Fran said abb
ruptly.
He followed her mechanically. too
absorbed in her revelation to think OF
the cards left forgotten on the bridge.
From their scene of good wishes, Fran
went first, head erect, arms swinging
defiantly; Abbott followed not know.
ing in the least what to say, or even
what to think.
The moon had not been laughing at
them long, before Fran looked back
over her shoulder and said, as II he
had spoken, Still, I'd like for you to
know about it,"
He quickened his step to regain her
side, but was oppressed by an odd
sense Of the abnormal.
Although" she added indistiuctly.
'it doesn't matter"
They walked on in silence until, aft
ter prolonged hesitation. he told her
quietly that he would like to hear all
she felt disposed to tell.
She looked at him steadily: Can
you dilute a few words with the water
Of your imagination, to cover life?

attempt TO rise. "why didn't yea an

called?" she asked with a good deal OF
composure.
"Fran!" Abbott exclaimed. Here all
alone at midnight-all alonel Is 1t
possible?"
mo, 1t isn't possible" Fran returned
satirically. for have company"
Abbott warmly urged her to hasten
back home; at the same time he drew
nearer and discovered that her lap was
covered with playing-cards.
Charlevoix county herald. (East Jordan, Mich.) 189?-1953, 1913-07-26


1t was when he suddenly discovered
Fran In the flesh. as she slipped along
a crooked alley. gliding in shadows,
that the cause of much sleeplessness
was made tangible.
Abbott was greatly disturbed. Why
should Fran be stealthily darting down
side-alleys at midnight? The wonder
suggested its corollary-why was he
running as from some intangible enc
my? But now was no time for intro
spection, and he set himself the task
OF solving the new mystery. AS Fran
merged from the mouth of the alley,
Abbott dived into its bowels but when
he reached the next street. no Fran
was to be seen.
Had she darted into one of the scat
tered cabins that composed the fringe
OF Littleburg? At the mere thought,
he felt a nameless shrinking of the
heart, Surely not. But could she pos
sibly. however feet Of foot, have
rounded the next corner before his
coming into the light? Abbott sped
along the street that he might know
the truth. though he realized that the
less he saw OF Fran the better. How
ever. the thought Of her being alone
in the outskirts OF the village. most as
suredly without her guardians knowl-
edge, seemed to call him to duty. Call
or no call, he went.
1t seemed to him long time before
he reached the corner. He darted
around it-yonder sped Fran like a
thin shadow racing before the noon
She ran. Abbott ran. 1t was like a
foot-race without spectators.
At last she reached the bridge span.
ming a ravine in whose far depths
murmured little stream. The bridge
was new. built to replace the foot
bridge upon which Abbott and Fran
had stood on the night of the tent
meeting. Was 1t possible that the su-
perintendent OF instruction was about
to venture second time across this
ravine with the same girl. under the
same danger Of Misunderstanding, re-
vealed by similar glory Of moonlight?
Conscience whispered that 1t would
not be enough simply to warn; he
should escort her to Hamilton Greg
ory's very door, that he might know
she had been rescued from the wide
white night; and his conscience was
possibly upheld by the knowledge that
a sudden advent Of Miss Sapphire
was morally impossible.
Fran's back had been toward him
all the time. She was still unaware
OF his presence, as she paused In the
middle OF the bridge, and with critical
eye sought position mathematically
the same from either hand-rail. Stand
Ing there, she drew a package from
her bosom, hastily seated herself upon
the boards, and, oblivious of surround
ings. bent over the package as 1t rest
ed in her lap.
Abbott, without pause, hurried up.
His feet sounded on the bridge.
Fran was speaking aloud, and, on
that account, did not hear him, as he
came up behind her. Grace Noir,"
she was saying-"Abbott Ashton-Bob
Clinton - Hamilton Gregory - Mrs.
Gregory-Simon Jefferson-Mrs. JEFF
ferson-Miss Sapphire - Fran - the
Devil" She seemed to be calling the
roll of her acquaintances. Was she
reading a list fran the package?
Abbott trod noisily OH the fresh pine
floor.
Fran swiftly turned, and the moon
beams revealed flush, yet she did not

Atlanta. May 27.-It has turned out
that when the sensational charges
were sprung last week against At
torney 7. B. Fielder. they we're sup
posed TO be followed by Mr.. Felder's
arrest, but that the police lost their
nerve
About the time the affadavits were
given 70 the public, the detective de-
partment, which, with Chief Beavers.
II Is understood, had decided to press
q criminal charge OF bribery against
Mr.. Fielder, found out that A. S. Col
yer, Jr, who had worried up the
charges against Folder, had an al
legged criminal record Of his own.
This KNOWLEDGE, 1t Is asid, caused the
police to abandon thcir idea OF i'm
mcdiately arresting Fielder.
As to whether Mr.. Folder is to be
arrested now or not, the whole Ques-
ton will be- put up to the grand jury
the latter part Of the week.
