ii ! in his. His arm swept about
her in a protecting embrace-just in
time, or she would have fallen:
A whisper came from her quivering
lips. Her face was close to his, else
he could not. have caught the uncertain
murmuring. The muscles Of her face
twitched. She rested supinely against
him as Il bereft Of any: strength Of
body or Of soul. Yet, in the intensity
Of her utterance, the feeble whisper
struck like a shrek, Of horror. ..

-. Before he could utter the soothing
words that rose to his lips, Dick was
interrupted byi7a slight sound at the
door, Instantly he was all alert: to
meet the exigencies Of the situation.
He stood by the couch. bending for
ward little as il in a posture Of init
mate fondness. He heard the noise
again presently, now so near that he
made sure Of being overheard, so at
once he spoke with forced cheerful
ness in his infection - '9@@
II tell you, Mary" he declared, "ev-
erything's going to be all right for
you and me. It was bully of you to
come here to me like this ..... s
The girl made no response. Dick, in
nervous apprehension as to. the issue,
sought to bring her to realization Of
the new need that had come upon
them. r.
Talk to me-: he commanded very
softly. They'll, be here in a minute.
When they. come ein pretend you just
came here in order to meet me. Try,
Mary. You must; s:dearest! Then
again his voice rose to loudness as he
continued: why I've been trying all
day to SEQ you. And now here we are

The belligerent' expression of his fase
vanished abruptly as his eyes fell on
Dick standing by the couch and Mary
reclining there in limp helplessness.
>'What are you doing in this house
at this time Of night? r. Dick demanded.
II recognize you, Inspector Burke.
But you must understand that there
are limits even to what you can do.
It seems to me, sir, that you exceed
your authority by such an intrusion as

Inc, for permission tc connect with a sewer on the Spooner estate. The present club house is Io- cated in Fairfield and the club asks permission ito run a six inch sanitory concrete sewer from the present club House or any other one it may build.
 Other petitions referred to the city engineer were: That of Stephen Mu- dak for the repair of a sewer at Mall lette and Jane streets and of G. A. v,rrfe caused by barns and outho usas at 1,25 and EST Central avenue. .F ,sss.

Advance estimates of the profits from
the parcel post for the year 1918 as
given out at Washington. place the
aggregate amount at $50. .OOo, 900, which
is Just double the estimates made by
the postoffice department at the time
the system was installed. IL the claims
of the railways for compensation for
the extra weight now being carried
free were adjusted, the net profits
likely would shrink to about half S20.-
900. 600. which is still handsome sum.
The total income from the service for
the current year is estimated at $780,
OO0, 900. 1t Is an excellent showing.

The family has had more than their

rs osteesnlns Title.
Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Jan. 3l.-While the state
OF Iowa last week, lost case in the SUI
preme court INVOLVING lake bed con.
troversy II didn't lose a lake. In fact.
all that was involved was some fairly
good farm land, in what was noted on
the maps as Boyer lake. but which the
court decides was only bayou. Tho
state was only ncminally in the case.
The title to the land was in doubt. AS
the property owners of claimants could
not sue the state the only way to get
the titles cleared was for the state to
sue the claimants. which was done.
merely to get decision on the sunict-
ency OF the titles.
The bayou had been meandered by
the surveyors and listed as navigable
lake. They sprobably hit the place IN
q vet season Anyway, the bottom Of
the- lake came up years ago and sub
mitted to pasturage and blowing. The
whole of the section in which the lake
was located was conveyed to the state
OF Iowa by the United States as
Swamp land" and in due time the state
conveyed 1t to Pottawattamie county
as swamp land and 1t was sold. Now
the court held that while the United
States conveyed only that part OF the
section which was outside the mean
dered lines, the state conveyed all OF
the section, including the lake: hence
the state parted with any title it re-
ceived that way.
But the state also claimed the land
within meandered lines because Of its
being n lake. The court, however. de-
cided that 1t never was a real lake, and
probably ought not to have been so
surveyed. and that the accretions
should attach to the abutting prop
erty the same as in the case OF a stream
shifting It's bed. So the state loses
both ways.
Also ttss state loses because it had
failed to assert its rights if 1t had any.
and had permitted adverse possession
these many years.
