Big Siegel- Cooper Stores

stores in New York and one in Bos-
ton; an express company, wholesale
house and private banking house run
In connection with the departments

Siegcl Stores corporation, of which
Henry Siegel, of this city, is directing
head and president. were placed in the
hands Of receivers Thursday through a
suit instituted by the holding company
In the federal courts.
None of the concerns, according to
statements of counsel, is insolvent.
and the action was taken to conserve
the ability to rehabilitate and reor-
ganize them. The assets and iabili-
ties were not given. Curtailment of
bank credit made receivership imper-
alive, 1t was said. Their gross earn
ings heretofore have been estimated
at $40, 900. 600 annually. The Green
hut-Siegel- Cooper company, of this
city, has no connection, direct or
otherwise, with the firms controlled by
the Siegel Stores corporation, and in
Chicago the store of Siegel, Cooper &
Co., although its stock is owned by
the Siegel Stores corporation, is pros
pering. Counsel here issued a state
ment to this effect. which was con-
trmed by Max Pam, general counsel
for the Chicago store. The business
there. he said, would be continued

! Miss Blake flushed.
| Not exactly" She adjusted a
| cushion to cover her confusion, then
leaned back complacently. But he
has suffered dangerously several
| times"
A musical tinkle OF silver spurs
sounded In the distance, and around
the corner OF the cook-house opposite
came Carara. the Mexican, his wide,
spangled sombrero tipped rakishly
over one ear. corn-husk cigarette
dropping from his lips.
TITS that romantic Spaniardl" whis-
pered Helen. What does he want"
ITS his afternoon call on Marie
delta, the maid" said Jean. They
meet there twice day, morning and
afternoon"
"A lovers tryst!" breathed Miss
Blake. eagerly. Isn't he graceful and
picturesque! Can we watch themT
"'Sh-h! There she comes!"
From the opposite direction ap-
peared slim, swarthy Mexican girl,
an Indian watering balanced upon her
shoulders. She was clad in the
straight-hanging native garment, belt
ed in with sash; her feet were In
sandals, and she moved as silently as
shadow.
During the four days since Miss
Blake's arrival at the Flying Heart
Ranch she had seen Mariedetta nit
ting noiselessly here and there, but
had never heard her speak. The pref
ty. expressionless face beneath the
straight black hair had ever retained
Its wooden stolidity, the velvety eyes
had not laughed nor frowned nor
sparkled. She seemed to be merely
part OF this far southwestern pic
ture; bit Of inanimate yet breath
ing local color. Now, however, the
girl dropped her jug. and with low
cry glided to her lover who tossed
aside his cigarette and took her in his
arms. From this distance their words
were indistinguishabIe.
How perfectly romantic" said the
Eastern girl, breathlessly. 'T had no
idea Mariedetta could love anybody"
She is volcano" Jean answered.
why. it's like a play!"
And 1t goes on all the time"
How gentle and sweet he is! l
think he is charming. He is not at all
like the other cowboys, is her"
While the two witnesses OF the
scene were eagerly discussing 1t, Joy,
the Chinese cook, emerged from the
kitchen bearing bucket of water, his
presence hidden from the lovers by
the corner of the building. Carara
languidly released his inamorata from
his embrace and lounged out Of sight
around the building. pausing at the
farther corner to watt graceful kiss
from the ends of his fingers. as with
farewell fash of his white teeth he
disappeared. Mariedetta recovered
her water-jug and glided onward into
the court in front of the cook-house,
her face masklike, her movements de-
liberate as usual.
Joy, spying the girl, grinned at her.
She tossed her head coquettishly and
her step slackened, whereupon the
cook, with sly glance around, tapped |
her gently on the arm, and said:
Mice III gally."
The ideal" Indignantly exclaimed
Miss Blake from her hammock.
But Mariedetta was not offended.
Instead she smiled over her shoulder
