American flag in the church follow
ing a series Of petty attacks on this
and other houses of worship In
Omaha, made by unidentified per-
sons, are causing great alarm to pas
.ors and congregations in Omaha.
Churchmen believe the attacks are
Of serious nature and are the out
growth of a deliberate desire on the
part of unidentified cranks or be-
levers in anarchistic doctrines.
"The fact that the American flag
was set afire in our church is sig
in my opinion" said D. e.
Cleveland, assistant pastor Of the
First Congregational. mo American
would have attempted to damage the
flag OF this country"
The incendiary attack was made while
Rev. Frederick T. Rouse. the pastor.
and the assistant were at lunch Friday.
The fire was started In the center OF
the church, practically destroying a large
silk American flag bearing the name
of the church, and a large map OF Pal

the public welcomed 1t after many sue

It was the sudden sight Of the new
dawn gown in a secondhand clothing
shop that finally gave Elise back to
him.
Fortunately for Eric's purpose the
clothing man had bought much from
the wardrobe of Elise and knew her
address. Having obtained it and pur-
chased the frock Eric went his way.
He found his dawn girl bending
over the bit Of fine embroidery by
which she was beginning her life as
a working girl. She was dressed in
simple black and her hair shone like
"a sunrise above the somber clouds.

visitor and realized all that his pres

Eric drew a quick breath, then stepped
forward and crushed her in his arms.

against his shoulder.

his arms, my girl of the new dawn

Docs Hard Fate.

A Gordon setter f~requented the pier
of Hastings, N. Y, where tug boats
Land for fresh water and the animal
had become a favdrite with many of
the tugboat men. Fol three weeks the
boats were not able to land because
OF the ice and the dog, apparently not
understanding, had barked his dejec-
ton as his friends steamed slowly past
him. The other day a tug which the
dog seemed to recognize steamed past
the pier and the animal, first running
about apparently in a frenzy of ex-
element, finally ran to the shore,
plunged into the water and started
swimming toward the vessel. The
ice was thick in its path and at last
h dog was forced to put back. The
animal reach shoal water, but there it
stood, its eyes fixed up stream where
the tug was disappearing. Perhaps
the icy water benumbed the dog SO it
could not move; at any rate it stood
motionless while the incoming tide
sent the water creeping up it's sides
and presently the waves met over its
head. Men who had expected each in
slant to see the dog come ashore real
lied too late to save the animal that
1t could not or would not move and
were forced to see it drown.

Eric knew the girl outmatched her
new dawn gown both in beauty and
the effect on his senses in general.
Eric fell in love with her. He was
Z struggling Journalist. with scarcely
enough Of worldly goods to hold him
securely in the world Of success. Yet
his precipitate fall into the realm of
love was none the less violent.
When he danced a few minutes
later with Elise and felt his hand
touch the back OF the new dawn
gown and realized that the girl her
self was within 1t Eric vowed that
he would write the points of his pen
in an effort to make himself worthy
to win Elise Waterman for his own.
Before the idea for the great play
came 10 him. Eric saw q much as
possible Of Elise. He tried. without
putting Il into words, to conve to
her the knowledge that she vas the
mistress Of his heart and that n
day he would tell her SO. It seemed
dificuit, and yet Eric felt occasion
ally that Elise was sending queer
little telepathic messages of rather
delightful import into his inner CON
sciousness. The knowledge only In
spired him the more, and his senses
reeled In anticipation Of the day
upon which HIS tongue could express
the love he bore her.
When the great Idea came to him
for the play that was to make him
famous Eric made the one false step
In his career. He went on into the
seclusion Of the country to concen-
trate and left NO address behind
