she muttered, II might as we'll go to
bed and get some rest
This she preceded to dat least
she went to bed, taking as much time
as possible in her preparations for the
night, that she might not have to wait
long in the darkness before Johns re-
turn. 1t was after ten o'clock when
she at last lay down., but she could not
rest. To be sure she did fall into a
little doze a few minutes after she
had put out the light, but she awoke
from this with nervous start as the
clock on the small table at the head
of her bed struck the half-hour. Uu-
sally the striking Of this timepiece did
not disturb her. Now the sound seem.
ed to reverberate through the quiet
room. Half past ten and John still at
the club! Oh, well, he would be home
by II O'Clock.
But eleven struck, and half past
eleven and twelve, and he had not re-
turned. For while Isabel was indig-
nant, then she became anxious. What
might not happen to him coming along
the lonely streets all by himself. Per-
haps he had been sand-bagged and
| thrown into some areaway where he
would lie wounded, perhaps; dead. until
morning, when the police would find
him. They would see by the papers
in his pockets who he was, and would
call her up and tell her. How could
she stand it! Oh, how could she
stand it!
She sat up in an agony of fear. Sud-
denly her mood changed. Was it posi-
that John might be having a good
time at the club all this while? If so,
she would give him piece of her
mind. But no, he would not be so
cruel, SO inconsiderate. Something
must have happened to him. At what
hour had he left the club she wonder
ed In such an emergency as this
there was but one thing for her to do.
That was to call up the club and
make inquiries.
She threw her bathrobe about her
and thrust her feet into her bedside
shoes, then. hurried out into the hall
where the telephone hung. With trem-
bling hands she seized the directory
and searched it's columns for the num-
Der she wanted. All, here it was!
Some man at the club answered,
after she had waited for what seemed
to her long time.
"Hello!" he called as cheerfully as
if it were did-day instead Of mid
night Somehow his matter-of-fact
voice made the wifes' act seem sud
denly ridiculous to her. But 1t was
too late to withdraw now.
"Hello!" she returned in as steady

her. II guess he'll be home pretty
soon now" he added in a tone that
may have meant to be comforting. but
which brought the blood to the wife's
cheeks.
"Oh. I'm not worried about him at
ALL" she said frigidly. Il thank you
for the trouble you've taken"
"Pray, don't mention it." rejoined
her informant. Good night"
Good night" she returned, hang
ing up the receiver with the conscious
ness that she had seemed like a fool.
Then slight sound made her start
and listen. 1t was Johns key turning
softly and cautiously in the lock. The
telephone was in the hall. There was
no time for the wife to disappear be-
fore the front door opened.

It was a new experience for Isabel
Hamilton to pass an entire evening
alone. AS Isabel Davis she had been
accustomed to this kind of thing-be.
fore she became engaged to John Ham
ilton. Tonight, musing over the
events of the past year. she appreciat'
ed that for twelve months her even
ings had been spent in Johns com
pany. She had simply taken his pres
ence for granted. AS her betrothed he
had been at her beck and call. AS her
husband he had been her property dur.
engaged at the office. He had become
a habit in her life. and she resented
his absence.
With a woman's capacity for self.
tortare she wondered if this was the
beginning of the condition Of affairs
of which she had read in lurid tales of
marital infelicities. There had to be a
first time for everything-even for a
mans neglect Of his wife. Was this
Johns first time? Was he going to
attend the club regularly?
She found that she was getting ner-
vous and over-wrought and called her
self silly and fancifll. John had spoken
the truth when he said that, as men,
Der of an organization. 1t was his duty
to appear there occasionally. Perhaps
he would not repeat the visit for
months.
AS a bachelor, he had been fire.
quenter Of the place. but Of late he
had mad attractions in his own home
that had kept him contented. Then
she remembered that his home had
not been especially pleasant this even
ing She had been silent at the dinner
table and had not seconded her hus-
bands efforts to make conversation.
She regretted the cloud between them,
but she had not been to blame.
n John had not been cross at break
fast.or even if he had apologized for
the mornings display Of temper, she
would not have been quiet and sad. 1t
was surely her duty to show him that
he had erred II he was too blind, or
too self-satisfied to see that he was in
the wrong, that was his fault Her
skirts were clear.
When one is alone, self-justificat alton
is not alwayssas much comfort as one
could wish. The book that Isabel had
thought would be interesting proved
less absorbing than her own unhappy
thoughts. OF last she flung the vol
ume down in despair. 80.

FORCE OF ALMOST THREE HUN

FOUR HUNDRED IN WOODS ARE
PUT TO WORK.

AS announced in The News last
week. the big whistle at the plant of
the Yaryan Naval Stores company.
now the Iaryan Rusin and Turpen-
tine company. was heard yesterday
morning at o'clock, and a few min
utes thereafter almost 800 men were
at work in the different departments
of the big plant, while in the woods
nearly 400 men We're busy securing
material for the plant
Everything has moved along as
nicely today as ever" said Superin-
tendent Smith to News reporter last
night. You would never have known
that the plant had been closed for so
long a period. All machinery was in
operation and no trouble at all was
caused by the shutdown.
1t is understood that by the middle
of the week the woods force will
be increased and there will be be
tween $50 and 500 men at work. These
men. however, or the large majority
OF them, are not employed by the To-
cal plant, as the wood is being secured
now or contract, rather than by the
company's own forces, as was pre-
yiously the case. Many of these con
tracts have been awarded throughout

lines.
Mr. Butts was followed by Mr.. Ma
son, who made another short talk, and
when he concluded, President A. j..
Long, of the Macon-Atlantic Naviga-
ton company, took the floor
Mr.. Long stated that he came to
Brunswick to look into the matter and
that it had been his intention not to
say one word but that so many
charges bad been made that he was
forced to rep!T tC at least some of
them.
The business men of Macon" he
said, have tried for years to work in
conjunction with the business people
of Brunswick. RE refuted the charge
that it was the purpose of his company
only to serve Macon, but that Bruins
wick merchants would be given the
identical rates per mile He said that
Macon business men were going after
the business, but thai they were going
to do it fairly. AS to the success of
the river line, he was assured of that,
and announced that contract had
just been awarded for second barge
and that the third would be built
shortly
Mr. Long then read a long CORE
spondence between his company. the
Southern railway, the Strachan Ship
ping company and Macon cotton
company, showing the difficulties that
his lire experienced in an effort to
bring 500 bales of cotton to the local
firm. He said that this correspond
ence showed conclusively that there
was something wrong and he charged
that the great big Southern railway,
by the correspondence he had read,
was asking one individual company
whether or not they should permit a
boat line to use their wharf property
He said that if the Southern had re
fused to permit the Coast Line, or the
A, B. K A. or any other line to use
their terminals, then he did not have
word to say, but when this company
permits other lines to use their wharv-
es then. he said, it became a common
wharfinger and that his company only
expected the same treatment accorded
other lines
After Mr. Long finished his talk, a
general discussion followed, and ev-
erybOdy talked, except the members
of council who only listened. Some
one would make statement which
would be denied by another, and for
time the arguments grew somewhat
heated
