quiet revolution has been going on
In Rockbridge. Once the smoke OF
six distilleries could be seen from
the heights Of Pisgah. near Browns
burgh. Today there Is not a licensed
saloon in the county. Formerly on
court days drunken men could be
seen Keeling on every road leading
from the county seat. Now that is an
exceptional spectacle. This Is the re-
suit of local prohibition acting on the
common sense principle that when
you remove the temptation by re-
moving the open saloon, you make 1t
more difficult to get and at the same
time decrease the drinking. What
that local prohibition has done for
the counties and towns It can do for
the cities and State. That is COM
mon sense argument from the less to
the greater. And mark 1t. this is not
q religious crusade. 1t Is the work
OF the people, but It Is q striking
fact that the home, the school, the
church, the good women and the
bulk of the moral men of the State
are arrayed against the saloon. At

General himself
The spy studied the pattern on the floor. his
brows knitting as he tried TO formulate some
thlng that would strike directly at the old man.
II was an hour before he rose and moved toward
the door, an expression in his eyes which told
the problem had worked itself out.
In the wireless room he wrote out his mes
sage, waiting idly while he watched the operator
adjust his helmet and send the message hurtling
back to Manila. Hugo Loubeque smiled grimly
MS he imagined the CONSERVATION these strealss of
electricity snatched from the sky would create
upon arrival. He wondered at the indifference of
the Wireless man to the import of the message.
Not the aide. General Love sold me papers,
The operator turned ndifferently
''Signature?" he queried.
The international spy shook his head, smiling
at the expression of interest kindled in the young
mans eyes. He must, for do work of the
most difficult sort and do it himself instead OF
trusting 1t to subordinate. To do this he must
ingratiate himself with this man, become so well
acquainted he might have leisure to carry out his
plot.
Versed in humanity as he was. it was simple
enough for the spy to throw off his accustomed
taciturnity and interest the lonely operator. who
evidently thought him special agent of the gov
ernment. That accusatory message must not be
answered. Undoubtedly upon its receipt at Ma
Mia, an investigation would be started which
would open with finding the source of the or
iginal charge. To obviate this, the wireless must
be put out of order, must be wrecked thor

opportunity. the operator leaving his board and
going to the saloon. Hugo Loubeque wasted not
a second. The sound of the mans boots had not
ceased to sound before the box lay open before
the spy. His hands moved like lightning carry
ing out the plan he had conceived as safest and
most effective from the instructions of the oper-
ator In and out his fingers moved, loosening a
screw here. wire there. Within five minutes he
carefully closed the wooden guard and leaned
idly against the window, waiting the operators
return.

CHAPTER VII.
A Second Accusation.

GENERAL LOVE sat at his desk. trying vainly
to figure out what motive there could have
been for his trusted aides taking the desperate
chance of which he had accused him. Cold rea-
made him believe the either n luna
tic or fool, or honest. The first he brushed i'm
patiently aside. He had been provided with many
hides in his long service of thirty-nine years and
of them had equalled Lieutenant Gibson
In point of efficiency. Fool he might be, for the
old soldier knew how mans brains were stolen
from him by love. But the influence of Lucille,
born and bred to the sacred traditions of the SER
vice was the sort to make man go in any d-
rection save that of trading with his country's
honor. Honest
No matter in which direction he turned, the
General was unable to how the young officer
rould be honest. Where had he received the
money unexpectedly that led him to believe
he might be married before his promotion was
confirmed? Why had he done such foolish thing
with the safe combination to leave it in his
room? Why had he been embarrassed? hum
dred and questions all remained unanswered
and all pointed toward the mans guilt Only two
men could have gone in the safe-the General
himself and his aide And yet-always there was
that yet to contend with. He knew the boy
knew him well he had been willing to entrust
his daughters life to him, and he could not be-
lieve that Gibson guilty of the charge.
1t mattcred to him than the possible
contents of the papers themselves He knew his
work, knew the correspondence might be Of the
utmost Importance. still one does not think OF
such things when personal calamity strikes d.
rectly home. strikes at ones own family.
He was reused from the reverie into which
u
man was obviously nervous, bit bewildered by
the rapid succession of startling incidents which
had followed the ball
Briefly he told of his trip to the Empress
with Lucille, the earnestness of her pleadings, the
final words that had his consent.
'For the honor of the man love"
Over and over again he repeated the words
trying TO make something of them OF course she
meant Gibson. but what could she find out on the
Empress relating to the robbery Of the safe in
this Office? Still. she not foolish. hys-
terical girl, wandering off such errands at
tsngents. There must be something she knew or
had found out which she believed would clear her
sweetheart of the innuendo against him. But how
could he find out what it was?
1t was shortly after the thought came to him
that the prisoner himself might be able to shed
light on this mystery and he ordered his aide
brought before him. Cold logician that he was,
master of thousands of men that he had proven
,irnself to be, there was something more than
iere innocence about the young officer that the
enera1 could not deny, to himself More
