When Marta informed the onicer-
the same one who had rung the door
bell on his second visit-of the family's
decision he appeared shocked at the
idea of eviction that was implied. But,
secretly pleased at the turn OF events.
he FASTENED to apologize for wars
brutal necessities, and Marta's COM
plaisance led him to consider himself
something of diplomatist Yes, more
than ever he was convinced OF the
wisdom OF an invader ringing door
bells.
Meanwhile, the service-corps men
had continued their work until now
there was no vestige of war in the
grounds that labor could obliterate;
and masons had come to repair the
walls of the house itself and plasterers
to renew the broken ceilings.
All this Marta regarded in kind
Of charmed wonder that an invader
could be SO considerable. Her manner
with the officers in charge OF prepara-
tons had the simplicity and ease
which q woman Of twenty-seven, who
is not old-maidish because she is not
afraid OF a single future. may employ
as a serene hostess. She frequently
asked il there were good news.
Yes" was the uniform replyA An
unexpected setback here or resistance
there. but progress, nevertheless. But
she learned too, that the first two
days fighting along the frontier had
cost the Grays fifty thousand casual
ties
in order to make an omelet you
must break eggs!" she remarked.
Spoken like true soldieY-like
member of the Staff" was the reply.
In her constraint and detachment
they realized her conscious apprecia-
ton of the fact that in earlier times
her people had been for the Browns;
but in her flashes of interest in the
progress of the war, flashes from
woman's unmilitary mind, they judged
that her heart was with the Grays. And
why not? Was it not natural that
woman with more than her share OF
intellectual perception should be on
the right side? From her associations
it was not to be expected that she
would make an outright declaration OF
apostasy. This would destroy the value
and the attractiveness of her CONVEX
sion. Reverence for the past, for
father who had fought for the Browns,
against her own convictions, made her
attitude appear singularly and deli
cately correct.
The war was a week old-a week
which had developed other tangents
and traps than La Tir-on the morn
ing that the first installment of junior
officers came to occupy the tables and
desks. Where the family portraits had
hung in the diningroom were now big
maps dotted with brown and gray
flags. Portable field cabinets with
sectional maps on large scale were
arranged around the walls Of the draw
ing-room. In what had been the loung-
| ing-room of the old days of Galland
prosperity, the refrain of half dozen
| telegraph instruments made medley
with the clicking of typewriters Cooks
and helpers were busy in the kitchen;

men; they were to have their morning
baths, their comfortable beds, and

be especially gratifying to many peo-
pie In all parts Of the United States.
The bill also provides for re-ex-
am1nations of several very import
ant canals and rivers, which, lie thor
ouhgly improved, would be most eff
ncient competitors with railways and
regulators of freight rates. Among
these are the inland waterway from
Norfolk to Beaufort Inlet, and the
Coosa. Brazos, Red. Ouachita, Ar
kansas, Tennessee, Fox and Missouri
rivers. The purpose Of these exam
nations is to ascertain whether
there should be any modification OF
the present plan Of Improvement OF
any abandonment of the work. There
are also in the bill, a number Of gen
eral provisions Of much value which
can not be separately described at
this time.
When it is borne in mind that
the Indian appropriation bill. carry
L ing more than s11,0O0.GOO, and the
great postoffce bill, carrying nearly
isS324.000,00 were both defeated,
and provisions for these two DEPART
ments of the government had to be
made by Joint resolution extending
|sexistinE appropriations for another
year, it Will be seen that the rivers

ter than some others.
wish to say also that the disas-
I, ter which befell the rivers and bar-
sboTs bill Of 1914 was not due chief
/ " to the efforts Of its enemies IN
I Congress, but to a series OF untow-
ard circumstances which delayed ac-
ton on the measure for several
months. followed by the outbreak OF
inf
state OF business depression produced
thereby. and the decrease OF national
revenues due to the war. which made
necessary the emergency tax of over
/ 500. 100000. caused the cutting ot
expenditures to the bone and forced

for rivers and harbors.
One OF the most Unfortunate fea-
lures IN connection with the last
two rivers and harbors bills is the
| fact that no new projects whatso-
ever have been provided for. al
though q number or very important
ones. which had received the hearty
approval Of the engineer corps, were
pendinr and ready. for action. This
regrettable result Is due entirely to
the condition of the treasury and in
no sense to any unfrtendliness to
waterway improvements.
