Thoughtfully Lanyard reviewed

I'd suspected its strength, however,

In abstraction he wandered to q
chair over whose back hung a light
dressing gown of wine-colored silk
which, because 1t would pack in small
compass. he was in the habit of carry
ing with him on his travels. Lanyard
had left this thrown across the bed
and he was wondering subconsciously
what use the other man had thought
to make Of it that he should have
taken the trouble to remove 1t to the

without movement of any perceptible
sort; his face more than half turned
to the floor, and masked into the bar
gain.
lncredulously Lanyard stirred the
body with a foot, holding his weapon
poised as though half expecting the
form to quicken with instant and vio-
lent action; but it responded in no
way.
With a nod of satisfaction he shift
ed the light until it marked the near
est electric bulb. which proved, in
line with his inference. to have been
extinguished by the socket key rather
than by the wall switch while the heat
of the bulb indicated that the current

Flight.

Flight.
That wistful shadow of his memo
ries, that covering Marcel of yester-
day, in acute terror of the heavy hand
Of Nine. Troyon, had never stolen down
that corridor more quietly; yet Lam
yard had taken not five PAGES from bis
door when that other. at the far ehd
of the corridor. opened, and Lucia
Bannon stepped out.
He halted and shut his teeth upon
an involuntary oath-truly 1t seemed
as though this run Of the devils own
luck would never end!
Astonishment measurably modified
his evaporation. What had reused
the girl out Of bed and dressed her
for the street at that unholy hourT
And why her terror at sight Of him?
For that the encounter was no more
welcome to her than to him was as
patent as the fact that she was pre-
pared to leave the hotel forthwith. A
businesslike Burberry rainproof en-
veloped her from throat to the hem
of a short walking skirt of rough
tweed, beneath which boots both stout
and brown were visible.
At sight of him she paused with q
nervous start and instinctively stepped
back, cropping blindly for the knob OF
her bedchamber door, while the eyes
that held to his with an effect or
frightened fascination seemed momen-
tarily to grow larger and darker in
her face OF abnormal pallor.
But these were illegible evidences.
and Lanyard ignored them, intent on
securing her attention and silence be-
fore she could speak and so. perhaps.
betray him and ruin incontinently that
grim alibi he had prepared with such
elaborate pains. He moved toward her
swiftly. with long, silent strides,
lifted hand enjoining rather than beg
ging her silence and attention. AS he
drew nearer he was aware that curl
GUS change was coloring the complex
ion of her temper. She passed quickly
from dread to something oddly like re-
lief, from repulsion to something
strangely like welcome, and dropping
the hand that had sought the doorknob.
she, in turn, moved quietly to meet
him.
He was grateful for this considera-
ton, for this tacit indulgence OF the
wish he had as yet to voice, and drew
little hope and comfort from 1t In
an emergency which had surprised
him without resource other than to
throw himself upon her mercy. And
as soon as he could make himself
heard in the clear yet concentrated
whisper that was trick OF his trade,
he addressed her in a manner at once
peremptory and apologize:
"If you please, Miss Bannon-not
word, not Whisper"
She paused and nodded, eyes stead
fist to his. questioning but compliant.
Doubtfully, wondering that she didn't
show more wonder. he went on In the
spirit of one committed to a forlorn
hope:

Great Gathering of Distinguish

at Cathedral

The memorial military mass held at
the cathedral on Fort street yesterday
morning was very largely attended,
Governor Pinkham, Mayor Lane, Gen.
eral. Wiser, Rear Admiral Boush and
several officers of the National Guard
being among the most distinguished
persons present.
The Right. Rev. Bishop Libert was
present in the sanctuary, Chaplain
Lenehan of the 4th U. 8. Cavalry was
celebrant of the solemn mass, Father
Rodriguez was deacon and Father Al
phonse was subdeacon. A special mu-
steal program was rendered by the
cathedral choir under the direction OF
Father Ulrich, stringed orchestra ac-
connpanying the principal parts. The
double squad of United States regu-
lars that presented arms at the more
solemn part Of the service consisted Of
volunteers from the 18th and 10th

sermon, during the course Of which he
thanked all who had lent their pres

and patriotic occasion. He referred
especially to the fact that the memory
of those who gave up their lives II Ho-
nolulu harbor on March 25, 1918; ID the
F-4 was being honored, reminding the
congregation that inasmuch as they
made a sacrifice for precious prin-
ciples that should be appreciated by
every Catholic, so it behooyed every
one who Is able to do so to be ever
prepared to defend those same rights
guaranteed by the constitution, even
at the cost Of life, too.
Finally, he sounded the warning that
nations as individuals are not to be
judged by their advance in material
things, that true imperialism consists
in the empire of the man over his evil
inclinations, and that greater Is ne
that conquers himself than one who

Soldiers Need Clean Amusement.

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin
Sir: In reply to Mr. R. C. Browns
question, What can be done for the
SOLDIER" he seems to have forgotten
that there are something like 2700
soldiers In or near Honolulu who are
very much interested In what can be
done for them.
Mr.. Browns actions in inviting only
Schofield and Cashier soldiers TO reply
to him on coupons furnished through
the Honolulu press and to confine
their views only to an expensive build.
ing erected by the people OF Honolulu
goes to show that the Chamber Of
Commerce only wants to have an ex-
pensiye building, something that will
hook nice to the tourist, 50 they may
say, Look what we have done for the
soldier"
1t is not q question OF club rooms
In Honolulu that appeals to the men
of the service.
In all finished army posts there are
gymnasiums, bowling alleys and IL
braries furnished by the government.
AS long as such is Afforded at the post,
what does Q soldier care for such In
Honolulu?
II the Chamber OF Commerce is so
DESTROYS OF doing something for the
soldier, why do they not get together
with the so-caIled city fathers. and
grant some man who has the capital
and II desirpps OF. erecting nice
beach resnrt. something on the order
Of the Seaside Inn, where the enlist
ed men may 70 70 have q dance, meet.
and associate with the civilians Of the
city, -
Amusement is what the service man
wants when on leave, and that Homo
lulu does not AFFORD. The present
beach resorts are closed to the enlist
ed man, except the bar rooms; he is
not welcomed to the dance hall.
At present Honolulu Is closed to the
service men, except the saloons, the
red lights and the movies, still the
people here call us the drunken sol
diers.
Now what would be more appealing
to the soldier when he comes to the
city than to have q nice beach resort
10 20 TO where he might have the
pleasure of becoming associated with
q sdecent young lady or gentleman
With whom he might spend the even
ing, instead Of hanging around the sa-
looms or restricted district? And how
much less rowdiness would you see
on the streets?

ERECT ST. 500. 1000 HOTEL
ON SITE OF OLD ALBANY
PLANS UNDER WAY FOR MODERN,
UP-TO-DATE STRUCTURE.
Will Cover Half Block on Stout Street
From Seventeenth to Eighteenth,
and Be Twelve Stories High.

A syndicate Of Denver am Eastern
capitalists is negotiating for ninety
nineyear lease of the Albany and law
hotel properties on Stout street and plan
n new structure that will cover half Il
block and be twelve stories in height.
It is proposed to erect here the most
complete and up-to-date hotel in the
entire West and replace the present Al
bany hotel.
All the structure is to be newly built
except the $50 feet of the Albany in the
center erected in two parts-one is 1906
and the other in 1912-and known as
the New Albany. The project will in
volve n cost Of about 81 100000. The
present five-story structure will be in
creased to twelve stories to correspond
to the new construction.
The old part Of the Albany, l45 feet
on Stout street and l25 on Seventeenth
street, will be torn down and rebuilt.
The Law hotel property, which eN-
tends from Eighteenth street, where It
has frontage Of 125 feet, TO the New
Albany, frontage of l25 feet, will be
acquired on a longtime lease by the
company that is to construct the new
hotel. The present building will be
wrecked and on the site will be erected
the third unit Of the hotel.
One of the features of the new hotel
will be roof gardens. which from its
elve-story elevation. would afford
wonderful views of the Rocky noun
tain range.
