CHAPTER xi.
An unrecorded Deed.

The Preacher proved to be the
strangest thing in all this strange
country to Sandry as he watched him
In the days that followed He spoke
but seldom and then with quaint pre-
cision, beauty of speech and thought
that amazed the man from the East
But they were old thoughts, Sandry
found at last. thoughts formulated in
the fire and enthusiasm of youth, hence
still burning when youth had ned and
age had brought its empty seeming.
And 1t is there" he said to himself,
that Sletz gets her manner of speech,
though her visions are her own, born
OF her centered soul"
AT the end of the week Sandry went
to Salem. When he returned his face
was drawn as II from loss of sleep.
and he summoned Daily to the office.
Sandry pulled open a drawer in his
desk and took out tho deed to the East
Belt.

While Sandry stood at the block
watching Miss Ordway cantering down

her eyes. which lighted slowly as they
rested on him.

moment she stared at the distant
rider Then she whirled, so swiftly
that one OF her long bralds whipped
across Sandry's face like lash, and
dashed into the lean-to.
When she emerged the dark color
had drawn out of her cheeks and lips
leaving them ashen. Her face worked
and Sandry fell back a step at sight
of her eyes. They were all savage,
flaming with a rage which astounded
him.

passed him, 81 didn't know you felt

But she flung his grasp loose in a
perfect fury and dashed up the steps

"But know Hampden Of the Yel.

as Sandry assisted her to dismount.

"What?" cried Sandry. you did

LITTLE REGARD FOR TRUTH.

~ LG HESAnO fOH ! NJ ".
81 guess we will have to have a
prohibition press agent for the state"
remarked Governor Capper of Kansas
to a representative OF the Kansas City
tMo.) Journal, as he ran through a
big raft of letters and communica-
tions regarding prohibition.
1T is remarkable how little regard
for truth some people have,' said the
governor. For instance, here is a
man in Brooklyn, writing to the New
York Tribune, solemnly stating that
during his residence in Kansas from
1905 TO 1913 he saw more boys under
sixteen years old drunk in this state
than he had seen men drunk in other
states In all his life. Just think Of
such an absurd statement. He also
says that the hotels In all the big
towns of the state pay monthly fines
for handling liquor. AS a matter of
fact there isn't single hotel in Kan
sas paying monthly fines; nor in fact
are monthly fines being charged any
where. The supreme court knocked
that system out nine years ago.
IAN sorts OF arguments are put up
by the vets against prohibition, but
there are two points they ignore.
One 10 that Kansas is well pleased
with prohibition, regardless Of what
others may think OF her: the other is
that II a man can't spend his nickel
for glass OF beer he has that nickel
with which to buy a loaf OF bread for
his family"

Pitiful sometimes in his eagerness.
But he's loved from Seattle to Santa

Sandry, changing the subject; well
