Statement of Howard Citizens

ITO many of our readers the streets
of Howard are almost as familiar az
those OF our own town. and we are
naturally interested to read of happen

from a we'll known and respected
resident will be helpful to numbers
of men and women here in Madison.

That's IT." screamed the Jew, who
had edged to the front and who now
stood c%rouched, menacing, not far
from Halsey's erect and irate frame.
That's What he ISIS. Hess only try

sprang to one side, c%rouching.

curses. There were sounds of blows.
Then came a flash, a shocking repor
after that, a half-instant of silence.
and the sound of scattering and de-
parting footsteps.
There remained only one figure, ly-
ing outstretched on the gravel. To
render succor to this, to offer aid,
there was now only one human being
left In all that place-she who now
came hurrying forward.
Virginia Rawn half raised Halsey
as he lay. Charley" she said quiet
ly. Can you talk?"
He gasped and nodded. Through
here!" He touched his chest. IL
guess I'll not-be able"
She called out, to any back of her,
for aid. The frightened servant came,
and between them they got him some
how into the house, dragging him to
the gold-room library which they had
but lately left. They placed him there
upon a couch. Virginia Rawn rose and
waved the man away. He hurried
after help.
Charley" she said. turning to him;
"can you talkf
"A little. What is It, Jennie?"
You're hurt bad-very bad"
Through here" he said again, and
touched his chest. His breath was
hard. His garments were soaked
with blood. His face was %bluish-gray.
She looked into his soul the query of
her own. Perhaps there was some
thing not wholly unworthy In the
bond between them, since now it en-
abled them to talk, one soul with the
other, almost without words. !.
The great, secret, all-powerful, world
current, in~terstellar, not international,
the one great power-of love, as she
once said-was theirs. Yes,
IL was theirs, If only for a little while.
They've killed me-" he began after
a time-"T tried to do something for
them. He-Rawn-would have used
1t for himself. / didn't want to. =.
Jennie" he said, after a time; Il
beg pardon, Mrs. Rawn-I forgot
would you take the doll, the little rub
Der n on the table there, up to the
baby7 Poor little thingl Oh, welll"
He sighed. She quietly laid him
back upon the couch. She heard the
blood drip, drip, through and across
the brocaded couch, falling at the elge
OF the silken rug, on the polished floor,
eddying there; ~thickening there.

You're drunk or crazy. and we're not
going to stand for that here. It's no
place for this kind OF talk. I tell you,
I've done all | could for you. l haven't
sided with Rawn. II I had, I could
be rich to-day"

We are poor. You eat fat, you sleep

Halsey turned toward Virginia.
They did not again embrace, but stood
silent, almost a~pathetic now. Passion
was far away from them, indeed had
fully seized them. The despair
In human love was theirs; and love
Is half despair. She might have been

who faced her, his anger gone, he him

some sound caught his ear. Whats

He left her and FASTENED out to the
front door. He stood there, outlined
fully by the hall lights behind him.
Those who approached recognized him.
