he swung the bell to and fro, its clang-
ing tones being answered by the
frenZied cheers of the thousands below.
The Final Victory.
The surrender of CORVALLIS was an
nounced by the ringing of the bell at
noon, Oct. "a, 1881, amid the boom Of
cannon and the responsive peals from
the church towers.
On April 10, 1888, the proclamation
Of peace was rung forth, and thence
forth the bell was used on the most
notable occasions, among them being
the visit Of Lafayette on Sept 20, 1924,
and the t1ftieth anniversary of Ameri-
can independence, July 4, 1926.
On July 6, 1885, John Marshall, chief
justice Of the United States and one
Of the most prominent actors in the
revolutionary drama, died in Philadel-
phia, and while his remains were being
conveyed through the streets of the
city en- route to their last resting place
in Virginia, the old bell again sent
forth it's solemn tones in requiem for
the departed statesman, and as if it
had in this solemn duty performed it's
last mission, it cracked asunder and
has henceforth remained silent.
Six times has it left the old building
which is part and parcel of itself, the
first being the occasion of the demon
stration of the British against Phila-
delphia in 17777, when the executive
council ordered the Liberty bell, to-
gether with the chimes of Christ
church and st. Peters, to be moved
to Allentown, Pa. In 1885 it was loan
ed to the managers Of the New Orleans
ed by thousands of citizens. In 1898
it once more left its, home in Philadel-
phia to journey to the Columbian ex-
position in Chicago, where it was greet
ed with a continued round Of enthusi-
astic adulation, and still again in 1895
it was taken from it's glass case in
independence hall and hauled in a
handsomely decorated wagon to the
railway station and started on the
morning of Oct. on its journey to At
lanta, Ga, where it was again destined
to be an object Of interest to the thou
sands of visitors to the Atlanta exposi-
ton then in progress. To the South
Carolina Interstate exposition at
Charleston, in 1902. it was also well
coined visitor. In June 1908 it made a
| journey to Boston to take part in the
| one hundred and twenty-eighth ami
| versary of the battle of Bunker Hill.
Great Ovations.
So careful are the guardians of the
old bell that when a request was sent
that it be exhibited at the st. Louis
exposition in 1904 the request was at
first denied, and it was not until near
ly 100000 school children had petit
toned for it's exhibition where it might
be viewed and honored by millions and
receive special honor upon 1ndepend-
ence day, that the required permission
| for it's removal from Philadelphia was
obtained. TO get it to San Francisco
this year thousands of school children
recently signed petitions which were
sent to Philadelphia.

rTARSH and dull and low pitch
~ ed, a sound so strange and
rumbling that it could not be
called note, was sent rever
berating through Independence hall
from the Liberty bell and across the
country, 5000 miles, to San Francisco
by telephone, after eighty years of 81
lence.
A group Of prominent men and wo-
men stood around and listened in awe
to the dull tone that went coursing
through the ancient building and filed
1t until it beat back in decreasing
waves and died away in their strain
Ing ears.
For a moment the men and women
stood as If petrifed and shiver went
through them as the suspense was
ended. Chief Ball Of the bureau Of
city property, who has direct charge
Of the bell and Of Independence hall,
laid down small wooden mallet with
which he had struck the relic, and
with nod Of his head ordered that
the case which protects the relic be
closed again.
Some might call the Liberty bell a
casting Of metal, dead and inert, but
there was not person who heard it
speak after the silence Of three-quar-
tiers Of century who did not feel the
thrill and portent Of its voice.
The sound echoed forth, coursing
across the continent to San Francisco,
borne on a slender strand of wire. And
It was heard by Mayor Rolph and off,
Gals Of the Panama-Pacihc exposition,
who have all worked hard in the en-
deavor to have it sent to the west this
spring that the citizens there may pay
it homage.
statehouss Built In 1894.
Next to the famous old statehouse Of
Philadelphia, no other object has re-
ceived greater homage by the Ameri-
can people than the famous old bell
that at one time hung about its vener-
able roof, ever ready at all times to
lend its braZen tones in defiance of
oppression and in defense Of the rights
Of the people.
The structure known as the state
house was commenced in 1920 and
completed in 1884, being occupied for
the first time by the assembly in o.
tober, 1875. In 174O two wings were
added, one at either end, and connect
ed by piazzas with the main building.
The entire cost of the structure up to
this point was about $4,000. In 1851
It was determined to. erect a tower and
belfry over the south end Of the main
hall, and this work was completed in
1851, at which time, Nov. 4, the steeple
. was raised amid general rejoicing.
Three days previous to this event,
h. Nov. J., letter had been sent to Rob-
" vt Charles Of London, ordering suit
able bell for the tower.
u The bell thus ordered was forwarded
n from England by the ship Matilda and
arrived: at Philadelphia in August, 1852
It appeared to be satisfactory in all re-
aspects to its purchasers. with the ex-
ception that its price was f19s instead

about her face in straight, clinging
whisps.
And she could not curl it tomor-
row. There was no way to attach
her electric curler. She pictured the
blonde woman, at breakfast in the
dining car, exquisitely coiffured Then
she pictured her own hair brushed I'M
becomingly straight under her hat.
She had no kid curriers', but she
could do it up on hairpins. The next
moment she was cropping in her hand
bag tor comb and pins. When again
she lay back on the pillow, a brist-
ling row edged her forehead
A creaking sound from above, and
Warren's stockinged feet and paja-
mased legs danglcd from the upper
berth.
"Stuffy as the deuce up there" as
he dropped down beside her. why
IN thunder don't they ventiate those
upper berths: Room enough for us
both down here2"
"Why, yes, dear-of course. Do you
want to lie next to the window"
No, this's all right, only don't
root me out. Hello, what's here?"
That's my satchel. just shove it
down to the foot"
Helen lay with her face to the win
dow, staring out at the flying poles
and treetops, obscured at times by
the trailing smoke from the engine
Where are we now" demanded
Warren, as with kissing steam and
grinding brakes the train slowed
down.
Raising on her elbow. Helen gazed
out on long. dimly-lit platform.
ITS big station. They're put
ting on lot of trunks"
"Must be Brattleboro. We're in
Vermont by this time"
A fash of light from a swinging
lantern. shouting voices. a tolling
bell. shuddering lurch-and they
pulled out with gathering speed.
But the swaying motion of the
train failed to lull Helen to sleep. She
was still thinking of her hair. Had
she been doing it too hurriedly in the
morning? Was that the picture War
rem always had of her?
Restlcssly she turned, goadcd by
her ranking thoughts.

"Oh, no, it isn't that love the

his shoulder
Prickcd by the bristling hairpins he
drew back with roar of rage.
"Thunderation! What the: Sam
Hill"
"Oh. IL rolled up my hair. There's
no way to curl it in the morning"
"Curl it? Why in blazes do you
want to curl it,"
"Why, dear; you just said tit
looked So"
Take those blamed things out
I'd as soon sleep with a porcupine!
You leave your hair alone"
"But, Warren, it'll be so straight
and stringy"
"Well, that's darned sight better
than having it all frizzed up. There"
as he pulled out the hairpins and
smoothed back the soft locks.
"What're you always fussing about
your hair foro It's like silk Jove, l
feel sorry for SOL men. Think Of
having a bristly, tousled mop on your
shoulder every night! Now you leave
your hair alone-it suits me-"
And, drawing her closer, he rested
his cheek against Helcn's soft, silky
hair, with a movement that was al
most a caress.

woman, she must take it to her-she
could not leave it there. Helen knew
her section, the last on their side, for
she had noticed her before the berths
were made up.
Stumbling over protruding bag,
and brushing by a bent-over, under
shirted man, who was taking off his
shoes, Helen made her way back
down the aisle
To her dismay, Warren was sitting
hunched up between the parted cur
talns of their section.

out there an hour to give you-"
Il know, dear, but a horrid woman

Helen interrupted this depression
with hurried, nervous:
Look. dear, she left this watch in

it to her-she's in the last berth on
this side"
Take it yourself"
NO, | don't want to-she was too

seemed to re-echo the words.

Sitting up. she stared in the narrow
mirror between the windows. By
the pale moonlight she saw slender,
oval face, and dark eyes luminous
with tears. But her hair-oh, how
she HATED her hair! Already it
