FiftY-second Chapter.

MY joy was short-lived. No
MI sooner had l become aware
that l loved Martin Conrad,
than my conscience told me | had
no right to do So | was married,
and to love another than my hus-
band was sin.
1t would be impossible to say with
what terror this thought possessed
me, 1t took all the sunlight out of
my sky which moment before had
seemed SO bright. 1t came on me like
storm of thunder and lightning,
sweeping my happiness into the
abyss
All my religion, everything | had
been taught about the sacrament of
marriage seemed to rise up and ac-
cuse me. 1t was not that | was con-
scious of any sin against my hus-
band. | was thinking only of my sin
against God
The first effect was to make me
realize that it was no longer posi-
BILE for me to speak to Martin about
my husband and Alma. To do this
now that / knew | loved him would
be deceitful, mean, almost treacher-
Gus.
The next effect was to make me see
that all thought of separation must
now be given up. How could / ac-
cuse my husband when / was my
self in the same position? If he
| loved another woman, | loved another
man.
In my distress and fright I saw
only one means of escape either from
| the filthy burden to which | was
| bound or the consciousness of a sin
i ftfl haa RI that
| self of my passion. | determined &c
| do so. | determined to fight against
my love for Martin Conrad, to CON
quer it and to crush it,
My first attempt to do this was
| feeble enough. 1t was an effort tc
keep myself out of the reach OF
temptation by refusing to see Martin
alone
For three or four days | did my
best to carry out this purpose, max
! ing one poor excuse after another
when Gas happened several times a
| day. he came down TO see me--thal
/ was going QUOT or had just come in
or was tired or unwell.
1t was tearing my heart out to de.
! ny myself so, but | think ! could
have borne the pain If l had moi
realized that | was causing pain tc
/ MN also.
My maid, whose head was always
running on Martin, would come back
to my room, after delivering one OF
lmy lying excuses, and say:
You should have seen his face
when l told him you were ill., 1t was
just as il I'd driven a knife into
| him"
Everybody seemed to be in a CON
| spiracy to push me into Martins
arms-Alma above all others, Being
woman. she read my secret, and
| could see from the first that she
wished to justify her own conduct
! in relation to my husband by put
ting me into the same position with
| Martin.
Seen Mr. Conrad to-day?" she
would ask.
| Not to-day" l would answer.

The Manicure

something about it," said the Head
Barber, but I didn't pay no particu-

oh brother Wlfred has gone kind
of looneY over it," said the Manicure
Lady, Il think he seen II, or read a

one OF the verses he wrote down

there,
( But not the mastern knot of Human

To-DAY'S INSTALLMENT.
Fifty first chapter-continued.

Didn't say the river air would dc
you good, deaTest?" she said, and ther
she added something else, which
would have been very sweet if 1t had
been meant sweetly, about there be-
ing no surer way to make a girl beau
tiful than to make her happy.
There was some talk Of our. dining
together that night, but l excused
myself, and taking leave of Martin
who gave my hand gentle pressure
ran upstairs without waiting fol
the lift, being anxious TO get to my
own room that / might be alone and
go over everything in my mind,
! did so, ever so many times, re-
calling all that had been said anc
done by the commander and his COM
rades, and even by Treacle, but
above all by Martin, and laughing
softly to myself as l lived my day
ever again in a world of dream.
My maid came in, once of twice
with accounts of the gorgeous Derby
dinner that was going on downstairs,
but that did not matter to me in the
least, and as soon as | had swallowed
a little food | went to bed early
partly in order 10 get rid of Price,
that might go over everything again
and yet. again.
/ must have done so far into the
night, and even when the wings OF
my memory were weary of their flut-
tering and | was dropping off at last,
| thought l heard Martin calling
"shipmate" and | said Yes" quite
loud, as if he had been with me still
in that vague and beautiful shadow =
land which lies on the frontier of
sleep.
How mysterious, how magical, how
wonderful!
Looking back ! can not but think
it strange that even down TO that mo-
ment | did not really know what was
happening to me, being only con-
scious of a great flood of joy. | can
not but think it strange that though
Nature had been Whispering to me for
months, | did not know what it had
been saying. I can not but think it
strange that, though | had been look
ing for love so long without finding
it, l did not recognize it Immediately
when it had come to me of itself
But when | awoke early in the
morning, very early, while the sun
rise was filling my bedroom with a
rosy flush, and the thought of Mar
tin was the first that was springing
from the mists of sleep to my con-
scious mind, and | was asking myself
how it happened that / was feeling
so glad, while l had so many causes
for grief, then uddenly-suddenly
as the sun streams through the cloud
scud over the seal knew that what
had long been predestined had hap
pened that the wCndrous new birth,
the great revelation, the joyous mys-
terry which comes to every woman in
the world had come at last to me.

KNIGHTS HONOR
COLUMBUS DAY
Banquet By Knights Of Col
umbus Last Night at Fair
mont Hotel Big Success
TWO HUNDRED ATTEND
Strong Addresses Are Made
By Gov. Lister and Others,
Bearing on Day

The big dining room at the Fair
mont hotel was filled by nearly 200
persons last evening at the banquet
given by the knights of Columbus of
Aberdeen and Hoquiam, in honor of
the 422nd anniversary of the discovery
of America by Christopher Columbus.
Slatterys orchestra furnished the mu-
sic, Mrs. Walker sang several solos
in splendid voice and the Chamber
number, all of which was we'll re-
ceived.
To a march by Slattery's orchestra
with Governor Lister leading the way,
the assemblage entered the dining
room and were seated. F. w. Hastert
as toastmaster set the festal ball in
motion with brief address in which
he touched on the significance of the
occasion and expressed his pleasure
in being citizen of the greatest ma
ton on EARTH"
F. H. Lamb First Speaker.
AS the first speaker of the evening
he called upon Frank H. Lamb of
Hoquiam, whose toast on "Citizen-
ship" proved one of the scholarly
treats of the evening. Mr.. Lamb
spoke of the progress in the 422 years
since Columbus discovered America.
and referred to the wars of nations
and kingdoms reaching the struggle
between America and the British and
then the present European struggle.
He brought out the thought that
whether king or people were in con-
troll, it depended on the makeup of
the king or individual as to good or
bad characteristics, whether the gov
ernment was success or not. Edu-
cation, patriotism and Christian citi-
zenship were the important factors.
he declared, in making successful
government.
w. A. Rupp, editor of the Aberdeen
World, gave a breezy address on "The
Press" Mr.. Rupp said if Columbus
had America to discover over again
he would take along with him the
star reporter Of newspaper and
possibly a moving picture man. The
newspaper was a factor in civiliza.
ton, he thought. The responsibilities
of the free press of the country to-
dsy were greater than ever, he de-
clared, and that quality rather than
quantity would be the newspaper
scheme Of the future.

WOMAN KILLED
in MONTESANO
Marie jackson, Colored, Is
Murdered and Robbed
in Her Home

MONTSANO, Oct. 12.-The mangled
body of Mrs. Marie Jackson, colored
was found in her home, on Broad
street, about o'clock Friday even
ing by John Harris, also colored
who had been keeping company with
the woman and says they were en-.
gagged to be married. Harris at once
informed the authorities of the mur.
der and was held for a while on sus.
picion but was released later.
A hammer and an axe both of which
had evidently been used on the WON.
an, were found near the body, and
the house was in the greatest disor.
der, and had plainly been ransacked
for plunder. The bedding was tumb-
led about on the floor and all draw
ers had been pulled out. The body
was cold, indicating death sometime
previous. A heavy gold bracelet the
woman usually wore was missing and
abrasions on the right wrist gave evi-
dence of it's forcible removal.
In the woman's trunk was found
pardon issued by Governor Lister.
The woman had been sentenced to
10 months at Ellensburg for assault in
the third degree. Her marriage H.
cense was also found 1t is under
stood she was divorced
Sidney Stewart, aged about 80
years, who worked for some time on
the ranch of Oscar Smith north of
this city, was arrested Saturday by
Deputy Sheriff Ed. Hoover at Elma,
on suspicion of being implicated in
the murder and is held in the county
Jail pending an investigation. Stew
art was in the city when the crime
was committed, and on Saturday
told Mr.. Smith he was in trouble and
would have to leave, asking for his
pay. Mr.. Smith told him he did not
have the money on hand, but would
get it in the course of the day, but
instead of waiting Stewart left at
once.

INDIAN OIL CO.
RE0RCANlZED
New Corporation With New
Name Proposes to Push e
Work at Taholah
NOW QUINlAULT OIL co.
Present Rig to Be Replaced
With Heavier Equipment
Is Confident of Cusher

TACOMA, Oct. 1.-THE Indian Oil
Company of the Quiniault Indian res
ervation, which has been drilling near
Tahola, on Garfield mound, has been
re-organized and plans to push it's
development work as rapidly as pos
sible. E. F. Gregory of Tacoma and
W. II. Paulhamus of Puyallup are in
the new company. The corporation
has changed it's name to the Queniult
Oil Company. The company is capital
ized for $200,O of which 9S, 200 shares
or a par value of 81 will be held as
treasury stock. The officers of the
company are J. A. Paulhamus, presi-
dent; E. F. Gregory, vice president.
and w. H. Paulhamus, secretary and
treasurer.
The new concern has taken over the
rigging of the old company, which will
be replaced with newer and heavier
equipment. The prospect is now down
to the 550foot level. Mr.. Gregory, who
has just returned from the prospect,
declares that the oil indications are
unusually strong. The well is being
driven alongside of huge gas mud
volcano and has broken through num-
erous small pockets of gas. Work un-
der the new company will be pushed
rapidly.
In speaking of the concern, Mr..
Gregory says:
Some time ago I was approached
with the proposition to go into an oil
company on some leases in the Quin-
iault Indian reservation, just north of
Moclips. While l had no serious in.
tention of going into the oil business
went over to see the property about
three weeks ago. After examining the
land, and later reading what the great
petroleum geologists of the world have
to say about mud volcanoes and their
association with oil fields in some OF
the greatest oil producing regions OF
the world, became convinced that the
so-called Garfield gas mound, located
on the property, is true mud vol
cano, and that it as truly indicates pc
troleum as do the mud volcanoes OF
other countries. 1t was through this
conviction and the desire to see the
state developed, especially along lines
that would bring such great prosperity
as the development of oil fields here
I decided to 60 in with w. H. Paul
hamus of Puyallup and others in the
formation Of a company for the pur
pose Of drilling for oil.
I'VE have secured leases, acquires
equipment, which has already beer
placed, and are now beginning actua
development work. ,aa
