One of the Aotilla officers said he had seen some of the big ships of the Russian navy and he gained the impression that they could sink no great ship. Another stated that if the Moltke had been sunk it must have been sunk by a mine. This may be worth mentioning in the light of the denial by Germany that the Nr.f4t.. ,,.~.. l,,tro,,oI

tells Donald that the check was given
TO him by Helen. and adds a few other
remarks, insinuating many nasty things
to have presumably occurred between
Helen and Wainwright. This Is terrible
blow to Donald, who is already prepared
to believe it. There is a big scene between
Helen and Donald wherein he assuses her
or infdelity, and sees plainly by the marks
left by the bracelets which she wore while
posing that all is true. He rushes out
madly, determined to kill Wainwright.
Helen readily understands Donald's mo-
tive, and sets out after him to warn VAIN
wright She gets into a machine and
passes Donald as he is running madly on
the street, and arrives at Wainwright's
In ample time to warn him of the COM
ing of the enraged Donald. AS Donald Is
announced, Helen hides behind the cur

Helen is struck by the bullet and she

wound is not a fatal one, and Donald
at last understands what she did for him

happy end of the story.

realized the monetary value of the pic

abide by the contract he has made with
him. Wainwright arrives in America and
after a short meeting with Dolbeare, who
tells him that 1t would have been better
had Helen married him instead of Dom
aid. goes to Donalds studio to visit his
old friend and the woman whom he still
loves. After a very friendly reunion,
Wainwright, while going over Donald's
sketch book, sees the many drawings of
the nude figure posed by Helen, without
the head drawn in. Wainwright is struck
by the beauty of the figure, and states
his willingness to pay large sum of
money for the services of the model,
Wainwright ignorant of the fact that
the model Is Helen. Donald refuses all
information concerning the model-but
Helen has listened intently. Dolbeare,
after consulting a lawyer and learning
that his case of breach of contract against
Donald Is a strong one, begins to press
Donald to force him to live up to the
contract-to such an extent that when
Donald refuses Dolbeare obtains an at
taohment on all of Donald's personal be-
longings, even causing his furniture to
be removed from his home. That night,

ROUMANIAN WHEAT
GOING TO AUSTRIA
Allies Attempted to Pur.
chase 1t, But Were Too
Slow for TeutOns

London, July 20.-(Correspondenc
CT the Associated Press. THE an
nouncement that the remainder of Rou-
mania's wheat crop Is now going into
Austria at the rate of $50 railway car
loads a day has caused great disap-
pointment here. for 1t was hoped that
England and France would be able to
conclude arrangements TO purchase all
of Roumanias available supply, thus
cutting off the possibility of all this
foodstuff entering Germany and Aus
tria.
According to statement sent from
Paris by Col Edmond Thery, attache
to the French ministry of war, the
plan for purchase by England and
France fell through because the allied
countries are unable to act quickly
enough.
Sometime ago" he states, proposals
were made in France for the establish
ment of an international commission to
which the allies would appoint one del
egate each, to prevent the import into
Germany of any products which would
enable her to prolong the war. While
this suggestion was still being con-
sidered, there came the proposal to buy
UP the Roumanian wheat harvest. We
tried to act on this proposal but
found the difficulties of red tape almost
insurmountable.
For example, when the French gov
eminent directed its ambassador in
London to submit the proposal to the
British government no less than eight
days passed before the ambassador
could get the opportunity of seeing
the competent minister. Negotiations
with Russia involved further delay and
by the time the allies had achieved
harmony of purpose 1t was already toe
late-the Germans had stepped in and
bought up the whole of the crop"

Shark Is Speedy Motor

From the Philadelphia Record
New York.-Peter Bresse, James Pur-
cell and William O'Neill decided to catch
one of the sharks whose fins for a week
have been cutting the waters of Rar-
itan bay. They trolled from a motor
boat There was an abrupt jerk to the
line in short order and then a pull that
sent the cord burning through their
hands. They sent their boat about, cut
out the engine and fixed the line to a
ceat near the bow
Away off they caught sight of the
shark making for the high sea. The boat
followed, speeding through the water
with more power and at a faster clip
than the engine had ever driven it. They
ran for half a mile with the big fish
doing the pulling. Then the line slack
ened for a moment, but again they were
pulled away another course.
For an hour and a half the boat was
dra ~~ed ND and down the bay and across
and back until finally, almost dead from
