CHAPTER XIV.
A Double Escape.


On Nauset Beach, in the shank Of \
midsummer night, two men sprawled
on the sands, some distance back from
the water, and listened to the heavy
humping of their overtaxed hearts,
and panted
Now and again one would lift his
head and stare out over the black face
OF the waters at little line of red

that remained to witness to the fact
that, an hour since, these two had
been In command of as trim a small
schooner as ever ventured the coast

taken the smaller vessel.
In the course Of time, beginning to
breathe with more ease, one Of the
two marooned gentlemen said:

Mr.. Law said nothing whatever to

second impact of shoulders backed by

tered away from it's socket, the door
flew open with a bang-and Alan into
the room with cry: "Rose!"
His sweetheart met him halfway,
her arms uplifted, her countenance

And Mr.. Barcus turned and slowly
assembled the companionway, his nose
wrinkled with misgivings.

Some ten minutes later a hail from
the deck broke the embrace of the
lovers:

"Right-o Half minute!"
But that stipulated delay was sew

showed up on deck to find Barcus

REGULATION OF INTERURBAN
TINEC

AS representative of the best organ
lied traction systems in the country.
several prominent traction men from
Indiana have appeared before the SEN
ate committee on interstate commerce
to object to any law placing the inter-
urban lines under the supervision of
the interstate commerce commission.
They argued that 90 per cent of their
business was intrastate and only one
per cent interstate, and furthermore,
that Indiana had an excellent public
service commission that was operating
under an effective law to regulate such
carriers. These are moving argume nts
in favor of the omission of interurbans
from federal regulation because it
would certainly seem unnecessary to
take such a step for one per cent Of
their traffic.
But it must be borne in mind that
the proposed law is not merely dealing
with present conditions. AS it will
probably be on the statute books for
some time. it is looking into the fu-
ture, and the future OF the interurban
lines, if one may judge from their
marvellous growth in the recent past,
is a great one. There is every reason
TO believe that their interstate bust
ness will grow more rapidly than their
local business The local traffic posi-
biilties have been pretty we'll covered
now that people in general have learn
ed the advantage of using such car
riers frequently. But the possibilities
of traffic beyond state lines have
hardly been touched. This Will I'M
doubtedly prove valuable business
when proper arrangements are made
for it, and with such possibilities of
profit it would seem very strange, in
deed, if the energetic and resourceful
managers of the interurban lines do
not go after it.
Furthermore. Indiana is only one
state though it is a great state in in

things. Elsewhere. especially in the

THE NILITANTS WIN.

The hunger strike has won its first
important victory in the fight of the
English women for votes. Premier
Asquith has capitulated to Sylvia
Pankhurst
1t is the unexpected that has hap
pened. Few if any believed that the
militants could accomplish their object
with violence and the appeal of the
hunger strike to the passions of the
people. but the combined influences
have compelled the premier TO sur
render. The cause OF votes for women
will have a hearing, dignified by the
premier's chambers and presented
with all the impressiveness of an ap-
peal from a people to their govern
ment for recognition of the rights de-
MED them.
As King John yielded 10 the army
Of God and the holy church" at
Runnymede and gave the great charter
TO the people OF England, 50 may the
women of the same country hope that
out of the yielding of Premier Asquith
King George may give to the women
of his realm the right they demand
The battle for votes for women is
by no means won. but it is no mean
step toward that goal that the govern
men, has consented TO listen. That is
what the militants have been fghung
for. That is what they have acclaimed.
denounced. riOted, assaulted, burned
and slashed for. All they asked was
a hearing. Confident in the business
OF their cause they believed if they
could get that they would be given
their rights.
Apparently the government has been
afraid 10 listen lest it be compelled by
public sentiment to grant what was
asked, and now the very thing it
sought TO avoid has come about.
The militants are to have a hearing.
Much will depend upon the manner in
which they present their case, but in
any event the granting of the fran
chise can only be delayed. 1t cannot
he prevented. Sooner or later it is
inevitable.
