"Oh, no, no." Anne swallowed hard.

1t was not pleasant at Stella House
after that. So suddenly Anne packed
her trunk and engaged passage for
America.
The Rev. Joseph Mason went down to
the pier to meet her. and she flung her.

attentions. And she had stuck to her
text faithfully.
Yet during the long days Of sea voy-
age she could not read all the time or
look at the sea. And she was too shy
to make acquaintances. She had. there
fore, to think. And 1t was odd how
often she remembered that unfortunate
last scene between herself and Douglas
Knight. IF only I could have got
away without that,% she sighed.
But there was all the prospect Of
England before her. She had been
twenty when she came away-fearfully
girlish. she now knew. She was going
back quite a woman of experience. If
some Of her more recent ideals had suf-
fered wreck. at least her ideal Of all
that was English remained intact. She
was glad that she had stood out about
things in America She was glad she
was free to marry one Of her own coun-
trymen.
She carried her beliefs within tho
very walls Of Stella House.

Shots Fired by Caller.

A tall man with gray mustache dis
charged such a weapon in Mrs Hughes
house some time before the tragedy
was enacted Sunday morning, the po-
lice were told. He was caller at the
fuence of liquor and did the shooting
for fun. He greatly alarmed Mrs
Hughes and a companion, the police
were told.
The county authorities have the green
hat. blue sweater and electric fash
light as possible clues to the identity
of the slayers: and spots on the sweat
er, it is believed, are blood stains.

have them thoroughly examined. It
is barely possible that scratches on the
fiashlight were made by a dealer. and
should this prove to be true the i'm

committed by foreigners. but in pur-

Sees One Of the Burglars.
Mrs. Hughes Is unable to recall that
she heard reports of any Of the pistol
shots. She got good look at only one
of the two robbers. He pressed but
ton and extinguished the electric light
before the second man appeared.
IT saw the outline of the second man
in the light" she said, "and could tell
that he was larger than the first man."
She lost consciousness before any
shooting was done. In response to her
calls for "Cabby," her father came to
her rescue, and she remembered that
he asked: whats the natter" She
knew nothing more until she regatned
consciousness two hours later and went
to the house of neighbours for assist
ance.
Detectives say it is reasonably certain
that the two men who boarded a car
at the Mount Vernon station Saturday
night and got OF at Clark station about
1890 o'clock are the ones involved in
the affair. How they returned to the
city is not known. The last car over
the Falls Church line passed Clark sta
ton before the men could have reached
there, 1t Is stated, and they were not
seen crossing Highway bridge. where a
policeman was on duty all night.
The safe in Mrs. Hughes house was
opened yesterday and found to contain
only her personal papers. 1t had been
reported that she had $4,000 in the
safe. but she disposed Of that report

Authorities Unable to Locate
Men Who Killed WaIdrop

EARLY MORNING CRIME
IN HOME OF MRS. HUGHES
Alexandra County Officials Retain
Hope of Success-Search for
Clues in Washington.

Nothing has been learned by the
Alexandria county authorities or the
Washington police that will solve the
murder mystery of Clark station,
Alexandria county, Va. Common
wealths Attorney Crandal Mackey and
Sheriff Barbor and Deputy Sheriff
Palmer feel certain, however, that the
slayers of Isaac Waldrop and Nicholas
Coffinas and assailant of Mrs. Matte
A. Hughes, daughter Of Waldrop. will
be brought to justice.
The deeper the Washington police go
into the investigation, it is stated, the
more impenetrable is the mystery.
That robbery was the motive, MIR.
Mackey does not doubt, but some of
the detectives who have taken hand
in the investigation are inclined to the
opinion that there were other reasons
for the deed.
Cofinas' connection with the AFFAIR
has puzzled the detectives. 1t Is stated
that Coffinas had no money of any con-
sequence, and that he had to stop ana
borrow cash enough to pay for the
hire Of the automobile after he left the
Grand Hotel late Saturday night. The
depleted condition of his pocketbook,
it is suggested, explains his reason for
not returning to the city in the auto
mobile. 1t Is thought Coffinas intended
to walk home after the automobile got
away. He went as far as the door OF
Mrs Hughes house. it is said. and re-
mobile was standing, and, it is be-
lieved, was shot through the back be-
fore the automobile had gone many
yards.

Playground to Be Idle.

that the alley must stand idle until a

can be done. It is too bad. I do not

ought to go out and get up subscrip-

was so well ordered then. Thirty or
forty years ago he said oe children had I'd

time to play and less place to play in.
For Recreation Centers.
DR.. F. A. Mckenzie Of the Ohio State
University, who is formulating a
scheme for recreation here in the cam
paign being carried forward by the
federal children's bureau. deplored the
congested conditions of certain areas
in Washington. and showed maps in
dicating those areas of congestion,
where. he declared, there are more than
100 children to the acre.
He advocated the establishment of
recreational centers Immediately add
joining these congested areas. The
great majority of the children in GER
tain sections of the city, the speaker
declared. are forced to play In the
streets, and figures which he gave
brought out the rather surprising fact
to many that a larger percentage of
the girls who were found playing on
certain inspection trips play on the
streets more than do boys.
"A robbery of the people of Wash
ington Is involved in the failure to
keep the schools open all the time as
social centers," declared DR.. McKen-
zie, and the remark was heartily ap-
plauded.
Besides Mrs. Hopkins, the following
officers were re-elected:
Mrs John Mclaughlin, vice chair
man; Mrs. James c. Pilling, secretary;
Mrs. James c. Frazer, treasurer; Miss
Roberta L Braddock, executive secre-
tary.

Matter of Present Speculation.


Whether Coffinas was shot before or
after Mrs. Hughes was beaten up prob
ably will never be known unless 1t
comes from the lips of one or both of
the perpetrators of the crime. 1t is
thought to be reasonably certain that
Cofiinas was killed while standing on
the road and that he was not running
from the vicinity of the house when he
fell. His feet were some distance from
the fence in front of Mrs. Hughes
property, and the officials are unable
to understand how the chauffeur could
pass there without seeing the body.
Coffinas did not go to the assistance Of
Mrs Hughes when the latter was attacked,
it is believed. 1t is recalled that she
called "cabby" when she discovered one
Of the burglars in the house, hoping the
chauffeur would assist her, but the auto
mobile was speeding down the road at
that time. and Coleman, whose hearing
was not good, was ignorant Of what was
going on.
Continuing their investigation of the
affair yesterday and last night, the au-
thorities learned something which con-
WINGED them that only one pistol was
used during the encounter Sunday morn
ing, and that it was not magazine
weapon. Bullets from magazine
weapon that were found in the house

weapon several days before the killing
