introduced that evening. They danced
together, talked together on the
porch. Their conversation, perfectly
proper and platOnic, was unmistaka-
bly, one of understanding.
All that night Harry lay awake,
thinking of Miriam and again Of Nor
ma. He remembered how he had
come into Norma's life six months be-
fore. He recalled how the serenity
of her nature had appealed to him.
There had been a sweetheart of Nor
mas - a young man named Willis.
They had been comrades since child
hood, and, though nothing had been
said of love, most people had believed
that Willis would marry Norma. After
Harry had made his appearance Viii
lis had left town. Harry had suspect
ed that Miss Arbuckle resented his
having supplanted Willis, and that
had been the cause Of her hostility.
Harry became conscious, with
amazement and distress, that he was
wishing Willis had stayed. He found
himself questioning his fitness to
marry Norma. Would their natures
blend any more than light and dark
ness? He knew his weakness, his
constant searching for that ideal
whom Norma did not represent and !
never could represent.
Then the bronze hair and glorious |
eyes of Miriam bIotted out poor Nor !
mas picture from his mind.
He stayed three days at the hotel |
instead of week, and Miriam occu-
pied all his thoughts. They walked |
together, danced and drove together.
Yet, with a mighty effort of viii Har-
~, conscious as he was of Miriam's |
power over him, refrained from any
loVe-making. Only, at the moment of |
parting, he asked permission to call
on her in the city. And he saw an
answering light leap into Miriam's
eyes as she gave him her address.

ACCEPTED AS FACT

Former United States Senator La

while he did not personally see the flag

BY all on board.
While the British Foreign ONCE has
received no official advices that the
Lusitania flew the American flag on
entering Liverpool. and Will make no
formal statement until the matter Is
presented in definite form. a prominent
British official said that. inasmuch as
the British government grants ships
or other nations the privilege OF using
the British flag to escape capture, it
naturally feels that such privilege
would be granted to it's shfps In 5,
similar emergency.
The British merchant shipping act
passed I'm 1894 contains the following.
paragraph:
IF person uses the British flag
and assumes the British national char
acter on board n ship owned In whole
or In part by persons unqualified to
own British ship. for tho purpose of
making the ship appear to be British.
the ship shall be subject to forfeiture

been made for the purpose of escaping

NO OFFICIAL. REPORT
RECEIVED IN WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON. February 6.-Ofncials
tonight had received no official report
OF the use of the American flag by the
Lusitania, but they indicated that in
quiry might be made. Pending receipt
OF full information, comment was re-
served.
1t was regarded by some as not un-
likely that the occurrence would fur
nish a basis for discussion of the en-
tire subject of the use of neutral lags
BY belligerent merchantmen. on ac-
count of charges to that effect made in
the German admiralty's statement
The rules of international law are
clear, in that each nation has the right
TO determine for itself the conditions
under which its flag may be bestowed
on vessel. One authority holds that
the assumption of the flag by vessel
without authority is violation of in
ternational law. claiming that it is
fraudulent and injurious to the honor
of the state. Both the state whose
flag is wrongfully used. and that in
regard to which the use Of the false
flag is made have the right to demand
the punishment of the guilty persons"
NO LAW on STATUTES
OF UNITED STATES
Examination of the statutes of the
United states reveals that there is no
law referring to the misuse of the
American flag by vessels, though the
state Department has in the past or
dcred it's consuls to always communi-
cate full information as to such Incl
dents.
Upon the outbreak of the war with
Chile In 1879, Peru inquired OF the
United States what conditions must
he complied with, in order that a mer-
chant vessel might be considered as
belonging to the United States. and
under what conditions the United
States flag might be used
The American legation in Peru sent
note in reply. which was supple
mented by memorandum from the
Secretary of State, Mr.. Evarts, who
said that there is no prohibition of
the use of the American flag by n for
eign vessel beyond the Jurisdiction OF
the United States. or any penalty pro-
vided therefor"

the report OF Mayor Ainslie's Vice
Commission, filed in the Office OF the
Mayor on Friday afternoon. Failure
OF the Vice Commission to mention
the police board, while commencing

officers sent to testify before it
coupled with the recommendation that
the chief he given sole authority in

indictment of the entire Board OF po-
lice Commissioners
No names were mentioned in the re-
port, and friends of the commissioners
are disposed to resent the general
charge. which, they claim, reflects on

mission knew of any member of the
