JEFF SAYS:

II Is stated that the report that
the election in Wapello county
would have to be postponed be-
cause the county has no funds
with which to pay clerks and
Judges, is probably mistake.
There are plenty of blank war
rants left even if there isn't any
funds. to cash 'em with.

lfe-that was her only other possession, end of what use was such thing in this city of super- civilization?
 Apparently she was free to come and go about the place she pleased, but the very mockery of such freedom made her real situa- ton pail tho more. Absorbed in the hopeless task of finding of escape she took to having her meals served in her room, eating scarcely anything so engrossed was she with her thoughts.
 On the fourth day, she sat beside the window, dejectedly looking out upon the we'll nigh deserted street, she suddenly aware of shadow falling upon the glass. She sprang to her feet, turned to face Loubeque. The spy was not smiling now. Instead there tender ex- pression on his face, a look of sympathy such as she dimly recalled having seen while she was racked with delirium of fever in the open boat, out there upon the seemingly spanless ocean, In his hands he held newspaper and instantly she divned it held something that would hurt her. She nodded slowly, catching her breath with an effort, fighting back her nameless terror

LUCILLE LOVE. The Girl of Musteru

The blood drop fell upon the paper, carn1in- ing 1t. Lucille gasped delightedly. Her hand seized pin from the writing table and dabbled at the blot. It had dried up. Nerving herself she lightly jabbed the pin into the ball of her thumb, ferverishly writing upon the blank paper: How painful it was! How swiftly the blood dried! But she must-she must

 She swayed slightly. She could endure, the torture no longer It was sufficient. He could piece together what he read, what she had told him aboard the ship. But how to reach him with the fragmentary strip of paper. She braced herself against the dizziness which the writing had caused. Her heart was futtering wildly. AS she rested her hand upon her bosom, the feel of the ruby necklace met her fingers. The contact telegraphed a message to her brain, message which caused her to tear the necklace from about her throat, detaching jewel swiftly and wrapping the strip of paper about it. In one leap she had reached the window. The captain slowly returning.

CHAPTER xxx.
Correspondence Under Dificulties


 TWO days and sign of Loubeque.
 Lucille had feared and dreaded that first meeting. She positive the solitary figure apart from the masked company had been the spy But the formality had been so silent, ominous she had thrust it from her because of the terror it's recollection never faled to induce within her heart. The band of evil-doers cer- tainly could make mistake regarding her identity after that close scrutiny.
 The room assigned her was, to all outward seeming, daintily furnished bed chamber, but trying the large windows, she found they only could be let down from the top ard there covered by thin netting of a metal that re- sisted every attempt at prying apart Looking more carefully she this same flament of wire interwoven with the glass so they could not be completely smashed. The only means of escape lay by the door and, to get out that way, involved flight of steps. which passed many rooms.
 But she must escape. The thought of what Loubeque might be doing unimpeded sdrove her brain tyrannically against worIa-out sbody. She had the mans diary, wherein was evidence against him of such crimes would have appalled, the most Hardened courts, would have set nations at anothers throsts entaled countless deaths. The thing was so deadly that, jealous though she in her object of saving her sweetheart, Lucille knew she could bring herself to the point of making public such document. She had the rubies from the throat of the hideous idol in the subterranean cave. Times without number she regarded the glowing stones shuddered at the bo,od-red rays that mocked her from each facet, imagining the heart of each to have borrowed some of it's luster from the rivers of blood that had been shed through the lure of it's mocking light kings ransom, each one; the ransom of marry nations, was the strand.

Merely cage, elevator had been the boudor where she was a captive. The machinery stopped working abruptly. She fct sudden terror of what could happen next in this mysterious house of ln- stantaneous entrances and exits. She peered over the edge of the room, for she merely standing on flat surface so far as one side was concerned. To her came the insistent ring ing of bell. huddled, black mass showed al- most beneath her. Crouching upon the floor she leaned ever and gingerly groped at it with her fingers, drawing them sharply back as they en- countered human flesh.
 For just second she faltered before inves- tigating her discovery Loubeque must have come from her room in this fashion. It might be that, in some way, Loubeque had fallen and in- jured the machinery. She peered more narrowly at the man. and. her eyes growing accustomed to the thick backness, she made out the grim features of the spy. -T To stoop down, take the papers from his pocket, and hide them between the crack of the floor of the room and the bot tom of the elevator was the work of an instant
 As the glided gently into place with out much a tremor, she leaped down and lifted the grooming mans head to her lap. She had come barely in time for the spy strug- gling feebly to get to his feet. He smiled rue fully as he lighted match and scanned the fea- lures of his companion. For second he ap- peared dazed, then swift consternation crossed his face as his hand shot toward the place where he had placed the stolen papers. Almost smul- taneously his left hand closed about her wrist gripping it tightly she kept from screaming only by the sturdiest effort.
 "Where did you put thecs-tAe packet?" he demanded.
 Her moclling laugh answered him. The grip frightened.
 "Answer" His voice was hoarse with sup pressed passion "Tell me the truth or"
 You will break my wrist, l presume. That quite in your line, sir" The gibing note in her voice made him relax his grip with lit- tie cry of mingled apology and chagrin.
 Come" he said quietly, his tones silky yet dry and cold and hard. "Come, young lady. Of you understand the papers will be found and this is merely delaying the inevitable"
 He did not wait for her to speak, merely touched her arm and assisted her to the plat form. He stirred slightly. Came the whir of machinery, almost immediately shut out Once the room in motion, going upward this time. She closed her eyes instinctively be- fore the mystery of ii all. When she opened them once more she in the place she had left. Everything was as it had been save for g

For moment Lucille hesitated. She must break the window pane and even then the wire netting might be so close she could not toss the notebound pellet of such priceless value to the street. Swiftly she took slipper from her foot, drew back and brought the tiny heel crashing against the glass. It was tough but her third stroke opened it. At the sound of smashing glass she heard rustling without her door. The cap tain looked up at her and, simultaneously she filluped the round missile toward him, watched him eagerly as he stopped to pick it up and then thrust it hurredly in his pocket, passing on without so much nod, watched him with a feeling of terror in her heart as she saw Thompson, the butler, slip hurriedly out of the door and take after him. There something pantherish, something of swiftness, of certainty, of surety about the that awed her. Then slight creaking as of rusty hinges and she stared about her in mute horror. She was nov ing down and walls were advancing forward. She moving down and the room was moving with her.
