were scarcely more than sketched in, i,
though that much had been done with

thought, must be added. There would be

point it was the face of any of those young
women of gentle breeding he met when
at home-the inheritance of the best of
many generations.

taken the girl to educate, although she

cost her life; had never forgiven Stockton
for losing in business her sisters share of
the Doliver fortune.

Chic Warren who had told Covington the
pitful little tale. Chic always spoke of
the aunt as "the Vamp, the abbreviation,
as he explained, being solely out of respect
to her gray hairs. Marjory had received
her education, to be sure; but she had
paid for it in the only coin she had-the
best of her young self from seventeen to
twenty-seven. The only concession the
aunt had ever made was to allow her
niece to study art in Paris this last year.

She held her head bit high, as if in
challenge.

well tell her that she was too confound-
edly good-looking to be alone in Paris.
Yet that was what he thought, in spite of
his belief that, of all the women he had ever
met, she was the best able to be alone
anywhere. There were times when he
had sat beside her. not feeling sure he was
in the same room with her: it was as if he

He was somewhat startled by the ques-
ton, and by her earnestness.
"Just what do you mean?"
"Why cant they leave woman alone?"

"That is possible. He is very clever"

Henri removed their wraps with look of
frank approval. 1t was rather an elaborate
dinner that Monte ordered, because he

a satisfaction.
"Now," he said to the girl as soon as
Henri had left, "tell me about yourself"

asked.
"No," he replied hesitatingly, with an
uneasy feeling that it was one of those
things he should know about.
"She was taken ill here in Paris in Feb

Yvonne, she with the languid Egyptian
eyes, tried to rouse the big American.
Was it that he was bored? Possibly it
was that, Monte admitted. Then another
bottle of wine was the proper thing.
So he ordered another bottle, and to the
toast Yvonne proposed, raised his glass.

again, and, though the music from a
dozen other cafes called to him to come in

the boulevard, deaf to the gay entreaties
of the whole city. 1t was clear that he
was out of tune with Paris.
AS he came into the Place de LOp6ra

big gray opera house, an eager, voluble

She smiled-a smile that extended no
further than the corners of her perfect

sEARLE RECOVERs BODY.
Remains of Hartford Chauffeur Drowned off Madison July 4th Found

K Morgan Searle, son of Vice President F. A. Searle of Landers, Frary & Clark, is credited with the recovery this week of the body of a Hartford chauffeur, who was drowned July Fourth while canoeing with two young women, maids in the family of c. H. Veeder of Hartford, both of whom lost their lives when the canoe capsized. The canoe was never found, but the bodies of the maids were re- covered, one being found off Webster Point and the other near the Guilford shore.
 MT. Searle, who is a junior at the Yale Sheffield Scientific school and is credited with being one of the best swimmers at the Madison summer colony, where his father owns a cot tage, was returning from a trip up the sound in his motor boat when he dis covered the floating body of the miss ing chauffeur. Searle tossed out a looped rope, which caught about the body, and then lowed it ashore. The medical examiner was notified and gave permission for the removal of the body to an undertaking establishment.

WOULD CENSOR PICTURES
But Local Committee VIII Receive First Hand Information from Ma tiOnaI Board.

tiOnaI Board.
 A report recommending the estab- lishment of a local board of censors for all moving pictures shown in this city will be presented by the ordi- nance committee at the July meeting of the common council tomorrow night and the committee will further recommend that the question be re- ferred back for the formation of the necessary ordinances.
 Chairman Mueller of the ordinance committee stated today in regard to the report to be made to the council that it will contain no drastic rec ommendation for the censorship of pictures, the committee having learned that this work is in capable hands under the jurisdiction of the national board. The national board is anxious to cooperate with all local committees and in fact does in many places. The pie lures released each week by the na- tional board are carefully censored and it Is doubtful whether any fair minded local committee could find any fault with them. But the idea is to have the local committees cooperate, receiving each week a list of the pie lures released.
 The work of a local board would De largely to see. that only such pic lures as are approved and released by the national board are shown in the theaters here. This can easily he done and with this understanding 1t is not believed much of a fight will develop in the council against the es- tablishment of the local censorship.
