The Boardera
Regarding the events OF that rainy

hoarding-house In the far West TWEEN
t1ea OF New York, accounts differ

eonnected story. Until the great event,
they were trivial II was the reflected
Night Of the tragedy which gave them
kheir importance.
Most Of the boarders remained in

early evening for faring out-of-doors
With comfort. After dinner. Miss

Miss Harding and Miss Jones had

young men where they wanted to visit

esphemeral songs of the picture-shows.
Mrs. Moore stood In the hall for a
time. listening. Once or twice she left
smomentarily to look after towels, fur
dnace-heat and other housewifely cares.
One of these tours took her to the top

hndy sick with weak eyes, lived IN
,Aalfdarkened room She was new
conner, this Miss Estrilla. and not yet
well enough to take her meals in the
dinfng-room. Miss Estrilla's brother,
q slim. mercurial little Latin with an
entertaining trick of the tongue. was
geading to her by a shaded lamp, as
he eften did of evenings. When Mrs.
Moore rejoined the others. they were
singing full-voice.
On the stairs Mrs. Moore met Cap

irregular about meals; and this eve

away. Half the clearinghouse liked
Captain Hanska. and half disliked
him. Rather land more accurately
oil half-liked and half-hated him.
Before he started mp the stairs he
paused an instant at the parlor door
and looked upon the singers.
Come on in-the waters fnel"
called Miss Harding jocularly.
Captain Hanska returned no answer.
Apparently one Of his sardonic gibes
was on his lips. but he let 1t die there.
And he turned away.
HE can certainly be crouch when

though apologixing to the young men.

And they resumed their singing. AS
Captain Hanska passed Mrs. Moore

was bent and he gave no sign Of rec

his unsteady figure until It stood
straight and stiff. what cleared his
head so violently that he could think
with all the swiftness OF terror.
On his dress shirt-front was the i'm
print of a huge red hand.
"Whosef" Tommy asked himself
one instant The next, his gaze
bounded from the mirror to his own
hands.
Blood mired his fingers. On his coat
was blood ON his sleeve was blood.
on his knees was blood. on his very
shoes. He looked at the mirror again.
Across his chin zigxagged q dark red
line-blood also.
His first sane thought was that he
had cut himself, and was bleeding to
death. He looked again at his hands.
but saw no wound. Then, drunken
memories lingering a little in his So

the process of wiping his hands. He

In it. And it was widest where 1t
began it's fow-at the threshold of
Captain Hanska's door. In weak
access of real terror. he fell to pound
ing on the wall and shouting:
Murder! Murderl"
Suddenly mastering himself. he
seized the knob Of Captain Hanska's
door. The latch gave way-it was not
locked. But it opened no more than
foot or two-scarcely enough to give
a man passage-when something
blocked 1t from behind. In the tempo
rary weakness Of his will. Tommy
North shrank back from entering
such a place OF veritable horror. He
shouted again; and now Professor
Noll, looking In his bathrobe like a
strange priest Of strange Eastern
rite, rushed from his room gasping:
whats the matter7"
The blood, the pale, gibbering, dab
bled young man, were explanation
enough. He himself opened the door
as far as 1t could 60. and edged into
the room.

within. Tommy North found his

portly man-lay on his back with his
hands lifted over his head as though
he were clutching at the air. From
his breast stuck the haft Of a great
knife; and from the wound the pool
of blood flowed to the threshold. The
match went out; and with common
Impulse Tommy North and Professor
Noll struggled to see who would be
the first to get back through that door.
There followed alarms, screams. the

part OF Mrs. Moore. who had started

Captain Hanska- AS on previous oc-

read: "Mr. Lawrence Wade. Curfew

she recognized him perfectly-she

Mrs. Moore carried the card to Cap

THE CHARMS OF DELAWARE
MRS. MINNIE L. CARROLL

You may rave about the Sunny South.
Or the charms of the Golden West,
But the dear old state of Delaware,
Is the land that I love best
No other spot has charms for me,
Like the dear old Brandywine,
On a summers night when the moon
shines bright
The scenery is divine.
Refrain.
Delaware peaches are luscious,
Delaware apples are hne,
Delaware berries and Delaware cher
ries
AS leaders often shine.
The Blue Hens Chickens" are beau
ties,
Though they may be large or small,
But when all these charms fade,
Here a Delaware maid,
AS a winner, she leads them all.
Although our Delaware may be small,
'Tis the Diamond State" you see,
And that is why she takes the lead.
Though her counties may number
but three.
The biggest and best in the Navy,
Is named for our own little State
SO you see it's not size, that alone
wins the prize
And you'll find that our Delaware's
great.
