SLEEP WAS NOT FOR HER
Little One Got What Consolation She

The other afternoon the tot was do
ing her best to sleep. Dutifully she
closed her eyes, breathed rhythmically
and counted sheep jumping over the
fence, as instructed. Sleep would not
come. But 1t would never do to dis

ter?' she murmured slumberously,
"Uh-huh."
But her message was not convinc'

reward for sleeping Time and again
she made the effort, but always 1t was
fruitless. Then she began to equirm.
Finally she sat up in her bed. Her

play truant from business for a day
or two, and wished to see Samson
comfortably ensconced and introduced.
The first day Farbish and Samson
had the place to themselves, but the
next morning would bring others.
The next day, while the mountain
eer was out on the flats. the party of
men at the club had been swelled to
total of six, for in pursuance Of
the carefully arranged plans of Mr..
Farbish, Mr.. Bradburn had succeeded
in inducing Wilfreds Horton to run
down for day or two of the sport
he loved. When Horton arrived that
afternoon, he found his usually even
temper ruffied by bits of maliciously
preached gossip, until his resentment
against Samson SoI-eh had been
famed into danger heat. He did not
know that South also was at the club,
and he did not that afternoon go out
to the blinds, but so far departed
from his usual custom as to permit
himself to sit for several hours in the
club grill.
And yet, as is often the case in care
fully designed affairs, the one element
that made most powerfully for the
success of Farbish's scheme was pure
accident The carefully arranged meet
ing between the two men. the adroitly
melted passions of each, would still
have brought no clash, had not VIII

GUS Tonight marked an exception.
He was rather surprised at the cor
diality of the welcome accorded him,
for, as chance would have it, except
for Samson South, whom he had not
yet seen, all the other sportsmen
were men closely allied to the politi-
cal and financial elements upon which
he had been making war. Still, since
they seemed willing to forget for the
time that there had been breach,
he was equally SO. Just now, he was
feeling such bitterness for the Ken
tuckian that the foes of less per-
sonal sort seemed unimportant.
In point of fact, Wilfred Horton had
spent very bad day. The final straw
had broken the back of his usually
unruffied temper, when he had found
in his room on reaching the Kenmore

Allies OF Shipping Trust.

1t surprises no one that the plot to
defeat the shipping bill should have
been nursed within the Democratic
ranks of the senate. That party. in
the wrong as it seems, is about to
number among its members a few
who cling to the name Democrat"
while false to the traditions the name
implies.
There are usually just enough such
qussi-Democrats to put the party in
the wrong as it seems about to
eectrify the country by being right.
The scheme engineered by Senator
Clarke for recommitting the shipping
bill. and thereby depriving it of its
privileged place on the senate calea-
dsr, had all the qualities of con-
spiracy. Ii was conceived and nur-
tured in secrecy. and sprung upon
the senate after the conspirators had
taken every step to have all the Re-
publicans present and as many DEM
ocrats as possible absent. Tne SEN
ator whom the Democrats had hon
ored by making him president pro
tenn of the senate took the lead in
this effort to betray his party asso-
clates.
The tactics of the stroke at the
shipping bill were characteristic Of
the methods of monop ly when it
desires to defend itself in congress.

who have been persuaded to desert
