CHAPTER XXI
The Mayor Is Welcomed Homo.

It was good story-the story which
the mayor, Max, the professor and
| Magee read with Carrying emotions
there in the smoking-car. The girl
had served her employers we'll, and
Mr.. Magee, as he read, felt thrill Of
pride in her. Evidently the employers
had felt that same thrill. For in the
captions under the pictures, in the
headlines, and in flrst-page editorial,
none of which the girl had written,
the Star spoke admiringly OF its wom-
an reporter who had done mans
work-who had gone to Baldpate Inn
and had brought back gigantic
bride fund "alone and unaided.'
"Indeed?' smiled Mr.. Magee to
himself.
In the editorial on that first page
the triumphant cry of the Star arose
to shatter its fellows in the heavens.
At last, said the editor, the long cam
paign which his paper alone OF all the
Reuton papers had waged against a
corrupt city administration was
brought to successful close. The
victory was won. How had this been
accomplished? Into the Star office had
come rumors, few days back, of the
proposed payment of a big bride at the
inn on Baldpate Mountain. The paper
, had decided that one of it's representa-
tives must be on the ground. 1t had
debated long whom to send. Miss
, Evelyn Rhodes, its well-known special
| writer, had got the tip in question;
she had pleaded to go to the inn. The
| editor considering her sex, had sternly
refused Then gradually ne mad
brought to see the wisdom OF sending
girl rather than man. The sex OF
the former would put the guilty parties
under surveillance off guard. So
Miss Rhodes was dispatcher OF the
inn. Here was her story. 1t con-
victed Cargan beyond doubt The
very money offered as bride was
now in the hands of the Star editor,
and would be turned over to Prosecutor
Drayton at his request. All this under
the disquieting title "Prison Stripes for

Mr. Max was thrust aside, and re

their fresh perpetual smile.
