Last evening Dell Henderson had din.

good times Of yesterday. Dell Hender'

directing Owen Moore at the Famous

Jack, mother and Lottie were with an
other company, and Dell Henderson was

the stage and in that particular scene

the melodrama.
That matinee, while I was barnstorrn-

of small boy creep from the wings and

POWER PLANT LOCATION
CONDEMNED BY HUGHES

Charles E. Hughes severely condemns
the action OF the present administration
in permitting the erection of the power
plant Of the government on the edge of
Potomac Park area in a letter to How
ard Russell Butler. OF the National
Academy Of Design.
He says: II am deeply interested in
the development OF Washington and in
the protection Of its scenic effects. I
agree with you that the action of the
administration in placing the govern
ment heating and power plant on the
edge Of the Washington park develop
ment is an objectionable offense. I am
deeply in sympathy with the efforts of
your association to preserve our National
Capital from hostile enterprises of this
description"

And I saw Pierre La Rue come in.
Then, all at once, a second Pierre

then passed his hands across my face.

And promptly at next day Vanya
was on hand. AS she stepped forth
from the dressing-room into the stu
dio, clad In her 'TDelilah" drapertes,
her beauty was so intense, 30 alur-
ing, that Robert Clayton stared,
speIIbound, at her.
She threw the light shawl from her
shoulders and stepped toward the
model throne to take her pose for the
picture. But Clayton. as she passed
close beside the easel, sprang up
from his chair and impulsively caught
her in his arms.
'I love you!" he exclaimed, as he
grasped her in his arms. "Oh, love
you, Vanya! Tell me you'll marry
me. Tell me you will"
Noiselessly the door leading from
the studio to the outer hall was
opened. Mrs. Clayton, during a shop
ping tour. had dropped in for a FIVE
minute chat with her son. To sur
prise him she had softly opened the
studio door instead of knocking.
And-the surprise" was all hers.
AS quietly as she had opened the
door, Mrs. Clayton now closed it,
stepping back into the outer hallway
as she did 80.
