st seems Mrs. Marschalk pursued,
that this girl was joint heir and
owner of very fine cotton plantation
near Chattanooga with an older broth

a scamp of the first water He came
on to New York. leaving her living on
the plantation, where she had always
lived. It appears he went it at a pace.
Before three years were over he had
got this poor girl to give him powers

had the decency to dispose of himself
that she found out he had mortgaged
the plantation for more than 1t was

"You did not happen to hear the

asked in queer voice.
"No. nor the name Of the man into

Marschalk was in his mothers pew
on that Easter Sunday. He listened
with a pleasure that verged upon pain
to the rich young voice that swelled
above the grand organ notes in "Con-
slider the Lilies" The voice was d.
vine. And-her name was Withers!
Marschalk's mind Travelled swiftly
backward to the time when Eugene

Withers had been his roommate and
chum at Harvard-a wild. reckless, un-
balanced boy. He got the help he ask

had mildly suggested some sort of
guarantee or security for the large
sums. 1t was then that the mortgage
was given and accepted. A little while
longer and Withers had shuff1ed on re-
sponsibility with the mortal coil.
It was perhaps week after hearing
that wonderful voice in church that
Marschalk called on his sister Cornelta

"Oh, you would indeed. Lloyd. If you

He did see her. He saw her again
and again. Months had passed when
Marschalk, going up the now familiar
steps, met Rufin coming down them.
They stood together on Mrs. Bisland's
stoop. Marschalk extracted ten dol

Two men backed up by Stuart, Gre

Wednesday evening in City hall, and
victory was snatched from them In

One man, always to be reckoned

spectacular games ever seen in this
city. Not only did he shoot four bas-

washington, JAM 2s.-Blair Lee
Democrat, was seated by the Senate
today as the first senator from Mary
land elected directly by the people
succeeding Senator William P. Jack
son, Republican. His commission was
accepted by vote of SO to 49,
Administration of the oath of office
marked the end of vigorous contest
over the validity Of Senator Lees cleo
ton. A minority of the Senate commit
tee on privileges and elections con-
tended that the Governor of Maryland
had no authority to call special cleo
ton under the 18th Amendment to the
Federal Constitution, substituting d.
rect election of senators for the old
method Of selection by the Legisla-
lures. ~
All the senators opposed to seating
the new member were Republicans.
Senator Smoot was excused from vot-
ing, following his statement that he
was in doubt as to the right Of Mr..
Lee to seat.
Senator Lee was assigned by the
Senate to the Craftsmanship Of the COM
mittee on expenditures in the post Of

The vacancy in the Maryland repre-
sentation in the Senate dated back to

is THE EARTH DRYING UP.

Is the earth drying up? In old days
the most dreaded catastrophe was the
end of the world by fire. Ought we
rather to dread not too much fire but
too little water? Prof. ]. w. Gregory
discussed the question at meeting
of the Royal Geographical Society at
Burlington House, over which Lord
Curzon presided. AT the outset the
lecturer quoted the opinion of Mr..
Rowland Thirlmere that Europe is al
most perceptibly Fastening to a mini
~1unl of spring and summer bright
ass, and that before 400 years have
passed there will be no wine made in
Champagne, nor in Burgundy, nor the
Gironde.
Prince Kropotkin, he said, also at
tributed the overthrow of the Roman
Empire to the dwindling rainfall of
Central Asia, which turned whole
tribes into nomads by the repeated
failure of their crops. Similarly,
Prof. ]. L. Myles attributed the vari-
Arabia and Lydia. Prince Kropotkin
contended that if this desiccation of
the earth was to go on it must lead to
further great political changes, for in
time the populations Of the world
would be forced out of the centers OF
the continents and crowded into the
continental margins.
After giving these quotations Prof.
Gregory went on to show, by means OF
lantern slides, that in parts of Central
Asia, of North America, of Australia
and of Northern Africa lakes and
rivers are drying up. But he admits
that the evidence which he has col
lected allows of other explanations.
Dealing with Northern and Northwest
ern Europe, he finds that there has
been no important change in climate
during the past 1900 years.
Archaeological and historical evil
dence also shows that Central Asia
and the coasts of Persia had very
arid climate in the earliest times of
which we have records. Scandinavia,
Germany, Hungary, Roumania, the
eastern and southern parts Of North
America and parts of Africa are char
acterized by an increased humidity,
and there is some evidence of the
same change following dry post
glacial period in England.
So it seems that this world will be
able to go on little while longer with
it's present supplies of moisture.-Lon-
