Edith and Sibyl began to scream in
suits at each other simultaneously,
fronting each other, their furious faces
close. Their voices shrilled and rose
and cracked-they screeched. They
could be heard over the noise of the

They were swept asunder by ban
daged hand. 'Do you want the neigh

There fell a shocking silence. Fren-

mother in the doorway, and she under

slowly toward the door; then suddenly
she began to run. She ran into the
hall, and through it, and out of the
house. Roscoe followed her heavily,

CHAPTER XXI.

The Sheridans dined on Sundays at
five. Sibyl had taken pains not to ar
rive either before or after the hand
was precisely on the hour, and the
members of the family were all seated
at the table within two minutes after
she and Roscoe had entered the house.
1t was a glum gathering, overhung
with portents. The air seemed charged,
awaiting any tiny ignition to explode;
and Mrs. Sheridan's expression, as
she sat with her eyes fixed almost con-
tinually upon her husband, was that
of a person engaged in prayer. Edith
was pale and intent. Roscoe looked
Ill: Sibyl looked i'll, and Sheridan
looked both i'll and explosive. Bibbs
had more color than any of these, and
there was a strange brightness, like a
light, upon his face. 1t was curious
to see anything so happy in the tense
gloom of that household.
Edith ate little. She mover once
looked at Sibyl, though Sibyl now and
then gave her a quick glance, heavily
charged, and then looked away. Ros
coe ate nothing. He did not once lOOl
at his father, though his father gazet
heavily at him most of the time. Ant
between Edith and Sibyl, and between
Roscoe and his father, some bite
wireless communication seemed con
tinually to be taking place Throughout
the long silences prevailing during thi
enlivening ceremony of Sabbath refec
ton.

NEW YORK CARPENTERS
DISCIPLINED BY UNION

Fort Worth, Texas.-Discipline cold
and hard, was used by the convention of
the United Brotherhood of Carpenters
and Joiners against 61 local unions of
that craft in Greater New York, who
were found guilty of violating the laws
of the Brotherhood, of insubordinatior
to legally constituted authority and of
securing an injunction against officers of
the Brotherhood which debarred them
from carving out the constitution in
New York City.
The case dates. from last May when
these locals through the New York Car
penters' District Council, ordered a
strike to increase wages. Later Presi-
dent Hutcheson, of the Brotherhood, Sc
cured settlement, under authority
granted him by the constitution, and
which was rejected by the strikers, and
who later secured an injunction against
this official and associates. The sus-
pended carpenters sent large delega-
ton to the biennial convention in this
city to plead their case, which was con-
sidered by a committee elected by the
convention.
This committee found that on April
90, General Secretary Frank Duffy noti-
fled the New Workers that the general
executive board had considered their
wage movement and had instructed him
to notify them that if no agreement
was reached before May 1, "our mem
bers must not be called on strike until
the general president (Hutcheson) has
an opportunity, through representa-
tive, to bring about settlement"
This letter was not read in the New
York Carpenters District Council until
May s, eight days after the strike oc-
Cured, and IS days after it had been
forwarded from the general office at In
dianapolis.
The committees recommendations
which were concurred in by the con-
vention, included an immediate with
drawal by the New York carpenters of
all injunction proceedings and the re-
chartering of the suspended locals by
the Brotherhood and the creation of a
new district council under supervision of
the Brotherhood's executive board. The
recommendations also provided that the
number of locals in New York City
should not exceed 25.

Switching their offensive from the Somme region in France-possibly as a counter to the advance of the leu tonic allies in the Dobrudja region of Rumania-the French have smashed the German line north and northeast of Verdun over a front of four and third miles, penetrating it along it's entire length, in the center gaining a distance of nearly two miles.
 Preceded by violent bombardment, such as marked the great attacks and counter attacks during the days when Verdun was the focal point in world interest, the offensive was delivered approximately from the eastern bank of the Mouse River near Bras east ward to the Damloup territory.
 When night fell the village and Fort DouaumOnt, in the center, were in the hands of the French, while on their left wing the Frenchmen had pushed beyond Thiaumont and captured the Haudromont quarry and taken up po- sitions along the Bras-Doaumont road. On their right wing considerable pro- gresS had also been made from Dou- aumont to Damloup. More than $500 prisoners and quantities of war ma terial were captured by the French

EPESCOPALlANS TAKE STAND
 ON THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC.
Favors Legislation in Interests of Tax payers and Suppression of Traffic.

St. Louis, Mo-, Oct 24-For the first time in the history of the church, ac- cording to well informed leaders a stand on the liquor traffic was taken here today in the general convention of the Protestant Episcopal church. A resolution adopted by the house of deputies placed the church on record as favoring such action in our legis- Iative assemblies as will preserve the interests of temperance and the repreS- sion of the liquor traffic."
 The action was an outgrowth of a memorial asking the convention to re- cord itself as favoring nation wide prohibition, submitted by the church temperance society through Francis L. Stetson of New York
 The saloon was scored in the report of the committee headed by Rev. James F. Freeman of Minneapolis, Ninn., which considered the memorial. This said:
 Our age is witnessing vast and universal readjustment with reference 10 the manufacture and sale of liquor, and 1t Is generally recognized that the saloon has become more and more menacing to the best interests of our corporate and individual life"
 A report showing that the church has more than 1,080,000 commitments and 5,700 clergymen was presented to the house of deputies by the commit tee on the state of the church. The report also showed that about LOGO of the clergy are not engaged in paro- Chial work and that there are about 53,OO0 school officers and teachers un- der the church with approximately 460,000 pupils.

O'LEARY BRINGS SECOND
 SUIT AGAINST MCCORMICK
Based on a Statement Mccormick is Said to Have Given to Newspapers

New York. Oct. 24.-Vance c. Nc Cormick, chairman of the democratic national committee, was served late l today with a summons and complaint in a second suit for libel brought against him by Jeremiah A. OLeary,
 one of the heads of the American In dependence Conference. The action,
 which is for $100.000, is based on a statement MT. Mccormick is said to
 have given to the newspapers on Mon day. This statement it was asserted,
 was in connection with charges by the democratic national committee that a secret agreement was made between O'Leary and his associates and dential nominee. by which MT. Hughes
 made speeches to conform to 'de-
 mands of the American Independence conference
 O'Leary's first suit against Mir Me- Cormick was based on a statement Mr.
 McCormick is said to have made con- cerning OLeary after the later had sent a telegram to President Wilson
 criticising his administration The
 president replied. in substance, to O.
 Leary that he would feel deeply mor-
 tiffed" if OIeary or anybody Hike
 you" voted for him.
 The democratic national committee tonight issued it's third insta llment'' of charges involving MT. Hughes and
 the American Independence Confer ence. What purported to be "confiden- tial committee reports" were made public and were declared to reveal in detail the secret purposes, plans and scope of the racial. political organiza- tion promoted by Jeremiah A. O'Leary and his associate propagandists"
