1t was Henley himself, strange to re-
late, who came to Unity's rescue.
Never. Mrs. Saunders" he re-
marked, with ar edge to his voice tnat
the men recognized, never GOV
the past-here, at least. Only the
other day Saunders was telling me
he often wakes up in a cold sweat, be-
cause he has heard in his dreams, Dig
in, we tarrier!'"
The men all laughed reminiscently.
Unity and Mrs. Saunders exchanged
sweetest smiles. The dinner resumed
its ever tenor.
Now" Mark grimly reminded him.
self, 1--WE let myself in for it,
But anger was surging. He deemed
that, through Unity. he had been made
ridiculous.
The evening passed. Mark handed a
smiling Unity into their carriage. NOT
a word passed between them during
the drive homeward, nor until they
were in their house. Mark led the way
to the library. The gas jets were not
lighted, but the glow from a generous
log fire threw their angry faces into
sharp relief, as they faced eac other.
Well, Unity, l suppose we're going
to have this thing out"
How could you?" she began storm
lily. And on this night of all nights!
Didn't you know she was leading you
on?"
"Yes-when it was too late"
THE sugary jealous snob! She
thinks because she's been abroad and
came from Philadelphia she's so arts
tocratic. And you-you-helped her
to shame me before them ALL"
How could I know that my wife
had been-fbbing about her ante
cedents?"
Would you have me admit them
to her and have her %patronizing me?
Haven't you any pride?"
Haven't you n self-resp-"
But the bitter retort was halted. bit
ten Off by the quick tightening Of his
jaws. When he resumed. he spoke
in a slow, distinct, quiet voice that
Unity had never heard.
ON second thought, we win not
have this out. We couldn't agree as
to where the offense lies. MOI" He
raised a hand. sharply, in protest,
as she began hotly to interrupt. Il
mean that-quite. I'll remind you that
I'm not a culprit boy but a husband
who has at last cut his leading strings.
Also that we have had enough scenes
in our pretty career together; one
more would be too many"
You take that tone-to me?"
Even to you"
She stared, too amazed for anger.
why, what do o mean"
you may take it as a declaration,
of independence"
Are you thinking" she gasped, "of
of divorce?"
Not yet. That may core, though.
It depends-' He even smiled.
She tried a weapon that had been
effective, her pose Of long-suffertng in
jured innocence. But Unity, like all
the pampered, was a coward. He was,
intuition again told her, capable OF
carrying out the cool menace in his
last words. The pose broke down mis-
erably. Forgetting the anger in which
she had come to the interview, she
went toward him with a frightened
whimpering cry.
"Oh, Mark!"
He turned away with a careless lift
of his shoulders and a curt, Good
night"
Alone in his workroom he sat be-
fore the fire, staring ~despondently into
the dancing flames.

have given up enough. Now l will let

Howell Has Self
Punched for the
Political Effect
lFrom q staff corresponaentA


LINCOLN. Neb, Aug. l6.-(special) -
"A pretty smooth trick. 10 II works" was
the announcement made by Lincoln
man this morning when he read in the
papers of the arrest OF II. Il. Howell in
Omaha yesterday for speaking on the
street. The democrats have been loath
to admit that Senator Kemp would get
the nomination as the republican candi-
date for governor knowing, yes. and adj
hitting among themselves that he will
be practically unbeatable, no matter who
is nominated by them. They know that
Howell with all his troubles will be easy
for Morehesd. and so in order to get SEN
timent for Howell they pull off the stunt
OF having him arrested in hopes that il
will draw him enough sympathetic votes
to defeat Kemp
you may be right" replied another,
and your opinion strikes me as good
one, but ! had Il sized up along another
line. 81 know Howell pretty well, and
you have got to give IL to him as a re-
sourceful AMI tricky politician. have
seen him In trouble before and the way
l have It sized up Howell had the stunt
pulled off himself for no other reason
than that II would bolster up a losing
fight in Douglas county and make him
some sympathy out in the state"
These two opinions seem to prevail in
Lincoln, although OF course among How
ellis friends they insist that there was
no frsmeup in the matter, but was sim
ply en- attempt to get Howell and pre-
vent his speaking whichever way Il
may be II has not caused much OF a
furry in the CAPITAL city and Il will cut

were In consultation with government
officials OF the reclamation service.
I'VE met for the purpose Of seeing
what could be done for the irrigators Of
this section in the way OF obtaining i'm
mediate temporary relief" said Senator
Hoagland I'VE showed beyond doubt
that the government reclamation service
had impounded water In June from the
regular flow OF the river which caused
the river TO become dry at Kearncy In
July.
THE only defense made to this by the
officers OF the reclamation service was
that the irrigators who were paying the
government In SCOTS Bluffs county would
object to the government turning the wa
ter down and saving the peoples crops
enst OF bridgeport without paying the
government. In answer we replied that
II the government persisted, that the con-
tracts were illegal and would he can

'As to the equity OF the question, We
said, We think that 20 reply upon such
a question in times OF so urgent need for

can have no claim except for some bene-
flcial use, and there is no beneficial use
TO which It can be applied by the gov
eminent In so far as the quantity stored
Is now concerned Ia puerile and unsound.
THE quantity stored in excess OF any
possible demand during the remaining
part OF this season can be determined by
the project engineer In an hours time,
and such quantity should then be released
In amount to meet the demands OF the
valley and distributed pro rata in accord
ance with established prorities by the
state engineer.
Project Engineer Weiss. admitted that

that now flowing in the river would fur
nish an ample flow TO keep water in the
! river and all OF the bitches going for a
period of two months
This would leave in the reservoir at
the end of this season for next year more
than 6OOOOO acre-feet OF water collected
from last years surplus.
81. II. O'Donnell, supervisor OF the
reclamation service, refused 20 state
positively what his report would be but
when Senator Hoagland asked him II he
had anything to say as TO his report that
might influence our attitude towards pro-
curing relief, he answered that he would
wire the department that night and that
we would probably have relief before any
thing could be done. We have been
practically assured that our bitches will
not be closed during the balance Of this
! season.
The reclamation officials have prom
ised to try and work out plan DURING
the coming winter which viii furnish
