conscientious Peter, with the heart
and the soul and the nerve of man.
Peter had sent her scurrying before him
because of the great love he dared to have

life with him-to buck New York with
him. This was after he had waded in
himself with naked fists, man-fashion.
That was what gave Peter his right.

even love, even fatherhood Like any
quitter on the gridiron. instead of tackling
low and hard, he had side-stepped. He
had seen Chic in agony, and because of
that had taken the next boat for Mar
seilles. He had turned tail and run. He
had seen Teddy, and had run to what he
thought was safe cover. If he paid the
cost after that whose the fault? The
least he could do now was to pav the
cost like man.
Here was the salient nccessity--to pay
the cost like a man. There must be no
whining, no regretting, no side-stepping
this time. He must make her free by sur
rendering all his own rights. privileges,
and title He must turn her over to
Peter, who had played the game. He
must do more: he must see that she went
to Peter.
REATRICE had asked him to use his
influence. 1t was slight, pitifully slight,
but he must do what he could. He must
plan for them, deliberately, more such
opportunities as this one he had planned
for them unconsciously to-day He must
give them more chances to be together.
He had looked forward tohaving breakfas
with her in the morning. He must give up
that. He must keep himself in the back
ground while he was here. and then at
the right moment, get out altogether
Evening star., 1916-11-12

Technically, he must desert her. He
must make that supreme sacrifice. At
the moment when he stood ready to chal-
lenge the world for hcr-at the moment
when his heart within him burned to face
for her all the dangers from which he had
run-at that point he must rclinquish
even this privilege, and with smiling lips
pose before the world and before her as a
gutter He must not even use the de-
Serter's prcrogative of running. He must
leave her cheerfully and jauntily--aS the
care-free ass known to her and to the
world as just Monte.
THE scorn of those words stung him
white with helpless passion. She had
wished him always to be Just Monte, be-
cause she thought that was the best there
was in him. AS such he was at least harm
lcss-a good-natured chump to he trusted
to do no harm, if he did no good. The
grandson of the Covington who had faced
thirst and hunger and sudden death for
his woman, who had won for her fortune
lighting against other strong men. the
grandson of a man who had tackled life
like man. must sacrifice his one chance
as a man. He could have met him chin
up with Madame Covington on his arm
He had that chance once.
How ever had he missed it? He sat
there with his fists clenched between his
knees, asking himself the question over and
over again. He had known her for more
than decade. AS a school girl he had
seen her at Chic's, and now ten wears later
he saw that even then she had within her
all that she now had. That clear, white
forehead had been there then; the black
arched brows, the thin, straight nose. and
the mobile lips. He caught his breath as
he thought of those lips. Her eyes. too
but no, change had taken place there.
He had always thought of her eyes as cold
as impenetrable They We're not that
now. Once or twice he thought he had
seen into them a little way. Once or twice
they had been like windows in a long
closed house, suddenly flung open upon
warm rooms filled with flowers. 1t made
him dizzy to remember those moments.
He paced his room. In another week
or two, if he had kept on,--f Peter had
not come,-he might have been admitted
further into that house. He squared his
shoulders. If he fought for his own even
now-if. man against man. he challenged
Peter for her-he might have fighting
chance. Was not that his right? In New,
York, in the world outside New York,

|VERYTHING considered Monte
should have been glad at the reve-
lation Beatrice made to him. If
0 Peter were in love with Marjory
and she with Peter-why, it solved his
own problem, by the simple process of
elimination, neatly and with despatch.
All that remained for him to do was to
remove himself from the awkward triangle
as soon as possible. He must leave Mar
jory free, and Peter would look after the
rest. No doubt divorce on the grounds
of desertion could be easily arranged; and
thus, by that one stroke, they two would
be made happy, and he-well, what the
devil was to become of him?
The answer was obvious. 1t did not
matter a picayune to any one what be-
came of him. What had he ever done to
make his life worth while to any one? He
had never done any particular harm, that
was true; but neither had he done any
particular good. 1t is the positive things
that count, when man stands before the
judgment-seat and that is where Monte
stood on the night Marjory came back
from Cannes by the side of Peter, with
her eyes sparkling and her cheeks flushed
as if she had come straight from Eden.
They all dined together, and Monte
grubbed hungrily for every look she
vouchsafed him, for every word she tossed
him. She had been more than ordinarily
vivacious, spurred on partly by Beatrice
and partly by Peter. Monte had felt him
self merely an onlooker. That in fact,
was all he was. That was all he had been
his whole life.
He lodged Peter this evening to escape
their usual after-dinner talk, and went to
his room. He was there now, with his
face white and tense.
HE had been densely stupid from the
first, as Beatrice had informed him.
Any man of the world ought to have sus-
pected something when, at the first sight
of Peter, she ran away. She had never run
from him. Women run only when there
is danger of capture, and she had nothing
to fear from him in that way. She was
safe with him. She dared even come with
him to escape those from whom there
might be some possible danger. Until
now he had been rather proud of this-as
if it were some honor. She had trusted
him as she would not trust other men. 1t
had made him throw back his shoulders
dense fool that he was!
She had trusted him because she did
not fear him; she did not fear him
because there was nothing in him to

toward even the biggest of tinanciers lat

the more he enjoyed doing the bossing.

Great Multitude Present to
Hear the Noted Speakers
Closing Sermon.
elFTS ARE PRESENTED
Meeting viii. Go Straight on
under Able Direction of
DR.. King.

One Of the greatest meetings In the
history Of Clarksbnrg, and at least
1000 people present marked the clos
ing sermon OF DR.. Morrlson's revival
ministry in this city. The big First
Methodist Episcopal church building
was taxed to capacity and standing
room was at premium.
The subject text, "Tho Second Com
ing Of Christ" was handled in most
mastery manner and slowed a won
derful knowledge Of the Holy Scripture
and OF history. &,
The sermon was SO powerful In It's
gripping interest with the throng OF
people that the church was a place Of
silence like unto a tomb save for the
words which fell from the speakers
lips and an occasional Amen"
The music was exceptionally good
and brought out the. excellent direct
ing ability of Prof. Hiatt. 3
The meeting will go straight on for
an indeterniinate period; the able ane
greatly beloved pastor, DR.. King, who
is considered a powerful pulpit orator
and great revivalist will conduct the
services
At the close Of the services last
night Dr.. Morrison was presented with
some costly and very useful tokens Of
appreciation. A fiashlight photograph
was taken Of the scene.

Is to Have Lawyers to Guide

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-Inyes-
tigatlon of the fitness of Louis d.
Brandeis. of Boston, for place on
the supreme court bench has so
broadened out that the Senate In
yestigating committee decided We'd
nesday that its work would be ex-
pedited If both sides presented testt-
mony under the guidance OF attor-
neys.
Austin G. Fox. of New York, who
appears as attorney for President
Lowell of Harvard University. and
fifty members of the Boston bar who
oppose Mr.. Brandeis, agreed to take
charge of presenting evidence
against the nominee, and the COM
mittee asked G. W. Anderson, United
States attorney at Boston, to take
charge of presenting evidence for
Mr.. Brandeis. Both lawyers accepted
without pay.
Wednesdays brief session was oc-
cupled by S. W. Winslow, president
of the United Shoe Machinery Com
pany, who charges that Mr.. Brandels,
as an attorney and director of the
company. approved certain practices
which he afterwards condemned as
illegal.

Germany Asks the United Ac.
ton of Wireless Operator
in SURPRISING News.
sy AssoeiArrp PaEsu

WASHINGTON. Feb. 16.-The
German government, through Count
Won Bernstorff. Wednesday formally
asked the United States to explain
why the American wireless censor
at Sayville suppressed the official
announcement of the German adj
miralty of the reported sinking In
the North sea of the british cruiser
Arabs on February IL.
At the navy department 1t Is adj
mitted that Berlin official dispatches
have been suppressed by the Sayville
censors because they considered
them coming under the inhibition Of
Secretary Daniels orders permitting
passage of war dispatches, "provld-
ed no reference is made to move
ments or locations Of war or other
vessels of belligerents.
II is explained that this order was
made n the interests of neuertlity
and the fact that the German gov
ernment itself authorized the Arabs
is not considered to
have altered the situation. ~
