A figure stood at the salute in the
door of the tent. Night had fallen,
and the light from the lantern re-
vealed a grisled and mustached vet
eran.
The veteran had been scouting in
the bush, alone. This is great fun.
He had seen a bomb-proof entrench-
ment, new. He had found a new
worn trail. He had seen three Fed
erals in tattered uniforms skuIking
in the bush.
Far away fires one two, three
glowed against the sky. We denied
vehemently that they were mere
charcoal fires. We argued that they
were too large, too bright. Some
where out yonder there was war.
An orderly sprang at us out of the
darkness.
The telephone, sir! Headquar-
ters!"
So headquarters, too, was playing
the game. Captain Hughes dashed
away and back again.

every half hour through the night"
he told US; and added: "And, gen
tlemen, am sorry, but am instruct
ed by the chief of staff to send you

Our horses stepped gingerly along
the twisted trail. Night birds called.
And out of the silence came with a
shock,
Halt! Who's there?"

DEMOCRATS SAY ONE
DAY WILL Be ENOUGH

So far as democracy is concerned
there will probably be but one reg
istraion day this fall, preceding the
general election-or one session Of
the registration board. continuing two
or three days If thought necessary
according to County Chairman Ack-
erman, and IL is hardly thought prob
able that the progressive or republi-
can parties Will demand an earlier
session either. The regular session.
provided for by law, takes place %
days before the election. and may be
continued from day 10 day if five pc
titioners ask il, but in some parts Of
the state party leaders are asking for
an extra session.
The question of whether there shall
be a special session so far as the
considered by the democratic state
central committee at its meeting July
l.
Under the VanAuken-Store regis
tration law, enacted by the legislature
or 1913, only one regular session for
registration of voters is provided for
Section Of that act follows:
The registration board Of each
voting precinct OF this state shall hold
in such precinct a session in each year
in which a general election will oc-
cur Such session Of the board shall
be held on Monday, the 29th day be
fore such election, and shall be desig-
mated the regular session of the
board"
Provision for Special Session.
Provision is made in section "a of
the act for a special session Of the
board In September. The section
reads. in part as follows:
That upon the petition signed by
800 resident freehold voters of any
county, Med with the county auditor
at least so days before such election.
there shall be held i'm each precinct
of such county a session of the board

CITY IS VISITED BY
ELECTRICAL STORM

The electrical storm which visited
nearly proved fatal to Donald Foster,
Il, son OF John Foster. proprietor of
the Foster restaurant on w. Colfax
av. Young Foster was riding with a
companion on the delivery wagon OF
tn Hurwich Grocery CO. and was
holding the aluminium order book in
his hand when he was struck and
rendered unconscious by the lightning.
II is believed that the stroke really
struck near the wagon and the cleo
tricity in the air was attracted TO the
metal which Foster held in his hands.
He was taken TO his home where DR..
Z. r. BOrley attended him and pro-
nounced his condition not serious.
Lightning also struck St. Stephens
Polish church on n. Lincoln street,
Friday and dismantled the tower of
the structure. No one was in the
church at the time.
Telephone service was not badly
disarranged during the storm and only
two or three cases of trouble" were
reported during the afternoon, al
though the repair men were ready for
duty.
Just as a Hill street car was cross
the heavy part of the storm a flash
of lightning burned out the batteries
and fuses on the car and passengers
who were making transfers had to go
the rest Of the way in the downpour,
The car generated enough power, aft
er about 10 minutes, to proceed on its
way TO the station.
A skylight in the Kunstman flats, on
w. Washington av., was reported as
having been struck by lightning, but
it is thought that the wind caved it in
as no other part Of the building was
touched in the least.
The rain which accompanied the
lightning was extraordinarily heavy
and lasted FOR quite a while drenching
many who were caught without UNI
brellas or means OF protection. Many
people, who happened TO be studying
the dark aspect of the clouds imme .
diately preceding the rain, aver tina.
they could see the rain coming several
seconds before 1t struck the ground.

59th day before such election. which
session shall be known as the Sep
TENDER session OF the board"
In some OF the counties democratic
workers think It might be impossible
TO get a full registration Of the voters
at the regular session in October, al
though the session probably will be
extended for the fun time Of three
days allowed by the law. A. c. Sallee,
secretary Of the democratic state COM
mittee. is quoted as saying leaders
there should be an extra session in
September 10 provide against any diff
Guilty Of this kind.
Difficulties in Way.
The law makes provision for the
registration Of absent voters by af-
fidavit. when IL appears that it was
impossible for voter TO appear and
register with the board at the reg
ular October session, but in some
places It is thought even this provi-
sion might not enable all absent vot-
ers 10 make their registrations.
What the democratic state commit
tee will do is a question. 1t could not
go further than to indorse the plan
for holding the special September ses-
sions of the registration boards.
Some of the democratic leaders. how
ever, say the state committee proba-
bly, will decide TO put the question up
to the counties, leaving each TO de-
eide whether il wishes to hold two
sessions OF the registration board. 1t
is pointed out that in some of the
smaller counties it probably would be
impossible 10 obtain the signatures Of
800 freehold voters TO a petition for
the September session.

He's nothing but an expert newspaper
man."
Dear, good, generous old EnochI"
You will never tell him-never?",
Il won't" said Merry.
They sat for a few minutes in
silence. The flush Of the sunset began
to fade from the sky. Seagulls wheeled
above their heads.
I'VE must go home," said Andrew
Crossing these rocks in the dusk
would be perilous."
Dorcas rose and followed him, clasp
ing his outstretched hand. When they
leaped down from the sea wall to the
beach, the girl asked: This is our
last evening here?"
Il imagine So You go to New
Haven next week, don't your"
Dorcas nodded.
Think of me working with all the

There was eager anticipation in her
eyes. When you come l will ask a
favor May play the daughter Of the
convict?"
"You!" Andrew stopped and looked
down at her intently. "You-you-dear
child, you sweet, gracious woman!"
Dorcas lifted her cool hands to her
blazing cheeks.

you know"
Dorcas spoke impatiently. 'Enoch
said that. If should go on the stage
would be no different from what
am today"
Let US go home. There's Mrs.
Hutchins' supper horn"
They walked on in silence. That
evening Merry sat for half an hour
with an idle pen in his hand. At last
he pulled sheet Of paper toward him
and wrote in feverish haste:
Dear old Enoch-Send me 500 to
the Broadway today, please. Don't
ask questions, don't try to find me; I'll
turn up when I've finished some work.
Your slave,
MERRY.

out, it means more to me than fame or
wealth-it means the happiness Of

Andrew! A woman at last"
The actor nodded graveIy. "Yes.
woman at last"
Not Drusilla?"
"Oh. curb your curiosity" he
laughed lightly; you can't have every
thing at once. Now I'm going to read"
Wentworth lit a cigar, leaned back
in leather chair, and turned his eyes
steadfastly upon the man opposite
him. Merry was a singularly dramatic
reader. Across his face flashed each
human emotion as he put 1t into words.
Enoch forgot the outer world when
Merry leaped into the words with
which he had clothed a daughters
greeting to her outcast father-a
father disqualified, hopeless, timid,
stunned, dumb after the long separa-
ton from his fellows.
Wentworth'e cigar went out and he
forgot to light another. He sat In
utter silence, silence which was half
critical, although at moments he was
deeply stirred, partly by surprise,
partly by unconscious emotion. He
breathed half-stified sigh. This task,
such a splendid achievement, had cost
The Southern herald., 1914-07-03

Rush the business, my lord, I'm owing
thee hundred and much else. It shall
be paid with compound interest from
the first nights returns" Then ne
laughed and shut the door.
"A hundred" whispered Wentworth.
He dropped into the chair beside the
fre and covered his face with his
hands. The room had grown dark and
it was 80 silent that when a cinder fell
from the CRATE 1t made him start to his
feet. He searched for small brass
key on his ring, hurried into the
library, and unlocked a drawer In the
desk. He took a slip Of paper from
a yellow envelope and stood staring at
1t for several minutes. His broWs
wrinkled and a curiously startled ex-
preston came into his eyes. He drew
a long breath. put the paper back in
the envelope, laid 1t In the drawer, and
turned the key in the lock. He walked
to a window, which looked down on
the square, and stared at the life OF
the city. 1t was habit of his. He
has solved many knotty problem
with his eyes fixed unconsciously upon
the busy street.
The thought-spell heightened out
indefinitely, then ended abruptly. He
hurried to his den, lifted Andrews
manuscript, and seated himself before
the desk From lower drawer he
took heap of paper, filled the ink
well almost to overlooking, and tried
several pens before he found one that
suited him. Then, switching on the
electricity under a green-shaded bulb,
he began with steady laboriousness to
copy Merry's play. The clock struck
three before his task was ended, He
gathered the manuscript into two neat
piles. One he placed in his safe, the
other he locked in the drawer which
held the bit of paper he had studied so
intently.
He returned to his chair beside the
ghost Of fire, laid his face between
his palms, and fought a battle between
two antagonists, his conscience and
temptation. He felt as If his soul was
in ehackles.
