There my silent loves strange story
ended A bald, straightforward nara
tive that held us all for some moments
absolutely speechless-one of the
strangest and most startling stories
ever revealed
She watched every expression Of
my countenance, and then, which had
finished reading and placed my arm
tenderly about her slim waist, she
raised her beautiful face to mine to re-
ceive the passionate kiss ! imprinted
upon those soft, full lips.
This, of course, makes everything
plain" exclaimed Jack. "Polovstofi
was a very liberal minded and upright
official who was greatly in the favor
Of the car, and a serious rival to
Oberg, whose drastic and merciless
methods in Finland were not exactly
approved by the emperor. The baron
was well aware OF this, and by in
geniously enticing him on board the
Iris he succeeded by handing that
small bomb concealed In a cigar,
nihilist contrivance that had probabl?
been seized by his police in Finland
in freeing himself from the rival whe
was destined to occupy his post"
Yes" ! said with a sigh. The
mystery is cleared up. II is true. yet
my poor Elma is still tho victim.

again and again upon the lips.

This easy and comfortable-looking
afternoon gown of taffeta with lace
bodice, might lack just the requisite
crispness IL 1t were not worn with
a dashing hat that draws it's inspira-
ton from Spain. This last item in
the costume is decidedly new in style
and one sees this Spanish idea in
evidence wherever the new millinery
modes are displayed.
The hat is made of velvet over a
frame having q fiat brim and a soft,
pulled crown. A narrow band of vel
vet encircles the crown at it's base.
Small silk-covered balls are set about
the brim-edge and two sprays OF flow
ers, in vivid-colored velvet, set in dark
foliage, are applied fiat to the brim.
1t is posed at a saucy angle on the
head by means of a bandeau, which
lifts it at the left side. A scarf of soft
silk is draped over the bandeau
and finished with a loop and two
pointed ends that hang toward the
back. They are weighted with the lit
tie balls set about the point

and implored, but his trembling hands
were upon my throat. First he
dragged me to my feet, then he threw
me upon my knees, and at last, with
that grim brutality which characterizes
him, he directed me to go and get a
mop and bucket from the forecastle
and remove the dark red stains from
the chair and deck. This he actually
forced me to do, gloating over my hor-
ror as | removed for him the traces
of his cowardly crime. Then, with
his hand upon my shoulder, he said:

die a death more painful than that
dog has ded-one in which you shall
experience all the tortures OF the
damned. Recollect, not a single word
or death! Now, go to your cabin,
and never pry into my affairs again.
"a great sensation was caused when
the body was discovered. The squad
ron was lying off Naples about a week
after the Iris had left. and while we
were there the body was washed up

tice was taken of it, but by the marks
on the dead mans linen IT was discov-
cred that he was Polovstoff, one of the
highest Russian officials, who had, il
was said. been warned on several oc-
casions by the nihilists. II was, there
fore, concluded that his death had
been due to nihilist vengeance.
THE real reason why the baron
spared my life was because, if | died
my fortune would pass TO a distant
cousin living at Durham. Yet his
manner towards me was now most
polite and pleasant change that
felt BODIED no good He intended to
obtain my money by marrying me to
his son Michael, whose evil reputa
ton as a gambler was well known IN
Petersburg. We travelled back to Fin
land in the autumn, and in the winter
he took me to stay with his sister in
Nice. Yet almost daily he referred
to that tragedy at Naples. and threat
ened me with death If ever l uttered

The lady's home is not in Chicago,

Chicago An orange-colored horse
absolutely not the scarlet one that
haunted Evanston last February, but
Orange-colored, vivid, like flame-has
been observed lately on the South side
of Chicago, especially, if not exclus-
lively, in the neighborhood of Fifty
third street and Indiana avenue.
A riot call brought wagon load of
police to that corner Immediately after
the first appearance of the oddly
radiant beast. The sleill screams of
a woman who never had seen horse
like that before aroused the whole
neighborhood. But the horse disap-
peared as quickly as it had come.
Have Only Description.
Detectives who have sought to iden-
tify the animal and to question it's
owner if he should be found, say that
they have not themselves seen the
horse, but have obtained an eyewitness
description from young lady, as fol-
lows:

the name sky-blue, the tail a tropic
shade Of green, the tongue jet black
and pointed like a fishhook, and the
teeth-presumably artifcial-are OF

Meat Cleaver in Forefoot.
Questioned more closely, the young
woman remembered that the beast
limped little with its right forefoot,
and that the left forefoot, oddly shaped
like the hand of gorilla, brandished
an ordinary meat cleaver such as may
be observed in any butcher shop. This
item, the cleaver, is believed to be
the only tangible clue to the identity
of the beast. At a late hour last
night, however, the police had not re-
ceived any complaint of missing
! cleaver.
The young lady said also that the
lips of the horse, when she saw it,
were parted in "a sort of leering grin"
But this testimony is not taken at
par, for authorities are agreed that a
horse laugh never is a leer. 1t is
therefore supposed that she is mis-
taken about the lips.
Had Late Supper In Loop.
It was Monday night that the young
woman saw the horse. 1t must have
been nearly midnight, too, for she

suddenly and told me to prepare for a
journey. We we're to cross to Stock
holm and thence to Hull, where the
Iris was awaiting US, for Mr.. Leith-
court and Muriel had invited us for n
summer cruise to the Greek islands.
We boarded the yacht much against
my will, yet was powerless, and dare

were taken merely in order to blind

until her exterior presented quite a
different appearance from the Iris.
THE port Of Leghorn was our first
place of call. and for, some reason we
ran purposely upon sandbank and
were towed off by Italian torpedo
boats. Next evening you came on
board and dined, Muriel and myself
having strict orders not to show our
selves. We, however, watched you,
and I saw you pick up my photograph
which had that day torn up. Then

Although there is no end of variety
in the shapes of hats for little girls,
the small-brimmed hat promises to
continue as a favorite. At least five
out of six of all the hats shown may
be relied upon to carry a soft, moder-
ately large crown upon gently droop-
ing brim. The brims are more or less
wide and more or less flexible, the
wider ones providing the floppy. grace
fully curved lines about the face that
suit girlhood so well.
A hat for daily wear, to and from
school, or otherwhere. and one CT vel
vet for dress-up are shown here. They
are selections from number. of thor
oughly practical hats for little girls.
The hat for school wear is made up
in several novel weaves in wooden
fabrics and has a plain crown and a
flexible brim. Machine stitching is an
important factor in it's makeup. The
brim may be turned up or down at
any position. The crown is quite plain
and finished at it's base with band
of the same material as the hat. Col
or contrasts and novel patterns In the
material are the factors that place
this hat above the commonplace.

vet with soft pulled crown and plain
brim that suggests the poke-bonnet
shape. A full ruching OF tancolored
satin ribbon is gathered about the join.

ruffie and sewed to the upper brim.
There is a full bow with short-stand-
ing loops and longer hanging ones at
the back. One small, metal blossom
rests on the brim at the left side
There is nothing startlingly new or
unusual in these hats although the
season offers some very pretty limo
vations for those who are looking for
them. There are odd four-cornered
brims and hats with crowns made in
sections that are laced together with
silk cord. There are transparent
brims and occasionally one sees birds

Embroidered Dress.

A very attractive dress for child
is made in one piece. A collar and
bolero effect are gained by means OF
embroidery work done in outline
stitches and French knots. II the
work is done with colored thread on
white linen or fine pique, the two
features stand out more prominently.
A crushed girdle of linen to match
the color of thread used for embroid-

velvet extends down the front. Little
pearl buttons, set close together, and
narrow fancy braid at each side,
decorate it.
The skirt is plain and gathered
with a little standing rufile about the
waist line. The bottom is finished
with shallow scallop bound with the
taffeta. II is rather short and, alto

very new hat which is worn to such
advantage with it. This costume Is
an excellent one for general afternoon

TRADE is HAMPERED.
Although Some Improvement Is Noted
in Many Directions.

New York, March 13.-Bradstreet's
says: Poor roads, unsettled wealth
err or small lot buying in larger lines
are probably responsible for the feel
ing of disappointment visible in money
markets. These features contrast with
increased operations in heavy manu-
featuring, diminished idleness; activ-
ity in ship building, a slight improve
ment in spring retail trade at some
few centers; some expansion in mail
wheat crop condition; heavy invest
more cheerful stock market tone and
irregular, betterment in collections.
The tendency to buy often and in
small lots indicates conservatism, and
it is likely that buying at and near
industrial centers will be restricted
until the effects of increased employ
ment are reflected in substantial
improvement in times.
There are some evidences of bet
terment in demand for lumber; textile
mills are taking raw cotton more
freely; silk factories in some centers
are working full time; ammunition
concerns are rushed; at the leading
centers automobile manufacturers are
doing better than anticipated. On the
other hand, coal mining is retarded
short time in anthracite regions is the
rule, and building, though showing
signs of improvement, is quiet.

gregate $2,S69, 772.0O0, a loss of 10
per cent from last week and 11.9 from
the corresponding week last year.

CURTIS in CAPITAL
New q. s. Senator Says Repub-
licans Have Come Back.
And He Predicts q G.. o. p.
President in 1916.

Washington. March Ex-senator
Charles Curtis of Kansas was among
the first of the new members of the
United States senate in the Sixty
fourth congress to arrive in Wash
ington. He came here a couple of
weeks ago to get reaUy in case there
should be an extra session. With no
prospect of an extra session, Mr.. Cur
tbs will go back to Topeka in a day or
two.
On March 4, Senator Curtis was
authorized to drop the word "elect"
in ranking letters, but he must con-
tinue to sign himself "senator-elect
until sworn in next December, or
whenever the next congress may con-
vene, if extra session should be
called. But the incoming new sena-
tors started to draw pay at noon
March 4. Retiring senators can avail
themselves of the ranking privilege
until their successors take the oath.
1t is nothing new for Charlie"
Curtis to take the oath of Office as
member of congress, as he has been
sworn in ten times as a member of
the house and once as a member of
the senate. He is glad, nevertheless,
to come back to Washington, he said.
And, incidentally, many of his old
turn here.
/. Says It's Gratifying.
"It is gratifying to come back to
the United States senate from Kansas
Curtis. After the election of 1919,
Kansas might be said to have been
under suspicion as Republican state,
but in the last election the Republi-
cans proved that they have come back.
"It is true the Democrats elected six
members of congress, but there will
not be that many elected next year.
The defeat of the PrOgresSiveS last
year practically ended the party, and
since November there have been many
Progressives who have realigned
themselves with the old organization.
81 think there is doubt that
Kansas will be overwhelmingly Re-
publican in 1915.
'I have no doubt the next president
will be a Republican. 1 cannot take
the view, however, that the Republi-
can party at this time can make
demand on any individual to be it's
standardbearer- We have a wealth of
material, but sentiment has not crys-
tallized around any man yet.
Perhaps in six months we shall be
able to pick out a likely candidate for
president, and we shall surely elect the
man we nominate"
