events of the last hour. She still felt
the encircling strength Of Kenredy's
arms as he held her. A hot flush
dyed her pallor when she glanced at
the folded slip she was neryously
creasing. Her purse. lost in the
wreckage, Kennedy had insisted on
her taking this check. Only her
urgent need had made her finally con-
sent to the loan, for it was only as
loan that she would accept it.
Too excited to sleep, she knelt by
the window until long after midnight.
For months she had been terrified by
the thought that no one in the great
city cared, but now for the moment
her desolation had fallen from her.
The throbbing consciousness of Ken
nedy's nearness, the refuge of his
strength was still upon her.
Kennedy, hurrying home, was re-
lieved that his wife was not waiting
up for him, for just now he shrank
from, the thought Of being questioned.
The sense of Margaret's nearness
the pulsating moments he held her in
his arms, shattered his quiet conserv-
atism of his life.-,.-.,s,s,
Mary was not asleep. Hating her
self for her suspicious, she tried to
Danish them in sleep. Was she be-
coming shrewish, Jealous wife? For
some time there had been a subtle
withdrawal in his attitude. He was
becoming daily more absorbed and
absentminded. She tried to attribute
it to his work, but there was always
the lurking fear that it was something
more.
In spite of her almost sleepless
night, Mary was at the breakfast table
dressed for a weekend. trip to their
houseboat when Kennedy came down.
1t was with increased misgivings that
Mary clung to her, husband as she
told him goodby. She knew there
would be no rest on this trip alone.
AT the housboat time hung heavy
on her hands. 1t was the first time
that Mary had ever come down alone.
Always Horace had been with her.
But now that he was coming. onl.'
for the week-ends, the place seemed
to have taken on dreary emptiness.
1t was with real pleasure that she
greeted Frank Norwood. the ener-
getic editor of Blackwells Magazine
an old friend of the Kennedys, on
one other infrequent excursions from
the houseboat. He was vacationing
at the River Bank inn,
AS they strolled to the houseboat
Norwood discussed his work. He had
a couple of manuscripts.
"It's pretty poor lot" Norwood
lit a cigaret. "All sleep producers
except one-the one you have there.
It's a corking story, His Wife and
the Other Woman By Margaret
Warner"
Mary recognized the name as that
of the girl who helped Horace with
his articles. She volunteered to read
the story and Norwood gave his con.
sent.
That morning at breakfast Mar.

GRAIN And PRODUCE
Wheat Receipts Light and De-
mand is Not Very Active
on the Omaha
Market.
Omaha, May 20, 1917


The cash demand for wheat was moder.
| ately active. but the trade was extremely
dull on account of very light receipts
There was very little off-grade wheat
reported sold, the demand being mainly for
the Nos ? and . hard winter. but sellers
reported good milling inquiry for both Of
these grades.
The wheat market was about steady 70
&c lower, No. hard selling around $3.50
2.s5. while the No. Q hard brought S2.si
and one car of No. . mixed durum sold at
$3.50.
The trade In corn was extremely dull and
while there was some demsn nd for this ce-
real the buyers were bidding several cents
under yesterdays price and tere was very
little disposition on tho part Of the sellers
to let go at such a heavy decline.
There was a few sales OF corn reported
during the later part OF the session and
these sales showed about a 3qic decline.
The premium on white corn entirely dis
appeared today. the better grades Of white
selling from tl.56h @1.6L while tho yellow
brought practically the same price as the
white, and few cars OF No. mixed
sod about one-half cent under the white
and yellow price.
The trade in oats was slow during the
early part of the session. but the buyers
got busy during the last half hour Of
trading and bought up a good part OF the
offerings at prices ruling generally about
lc lower. the No. white selling at Csc.
as compared with CSC, the price paid for the
bulk OF yesterdays offerings
yeNwas about unchanged and barley was
quoted &c lower. but there were no actual
sales OF either Of these cereals reported.
Clearances were: Wheat and -four equal
TO 1,376,00O bushels; corn, 1900 bushels;
oats, 873,0 bushels.
Primary wheat receipts were $4,000 bu.
and shipments OF 1OO3.OOO bu.. against re.
oeipts Of 1900 bu. and shipments Of
$50, 900 bu. last var.

Deliveries Of Building
Material at StandStill

Building operations in the city are
still practically suspended on account
of the lack OF deliveries OF material.
This lack of deliveries is the mystery
of the strike situation. The teamsters
hold it is deliberate lockout OF team
sters and a general desire of the con-
tractors and the material men, COM
bined with the Business Mems asso-
ciation, to suspend work long enough
to starve the strikers into submission.
The contractors and material men say
they fear to send their teams on the
streets to make deliveries because
they fear the teams will be cut up
and the drivers assaulted by striking
teamsters.
A few deliveries are made around
midnight and after midnight by team
and by auto trucks.
Commissioner Hummel declares he
will put some of the city's trucks into
use hauling building material for city
Jobs rather than let city work stop.

ror! Margaret started up almost para
lyzed as a heavy urn from the bal
cony crashed to the floor Just back Of
Kennedy's chair. The whole room
was in an uproar.
Kennedy, not wanting to subject
Margaret to further publicity, paid
the check, waved aside the profuse
apologies of the management and hur-
ried her out.
"Of course, it fell" he treasured
her. "No one would have set it off.
! haven't any enemies bitter enough
for that"
Edgar Doyle" suggested Mar
garet, tensely. But Kennedy dis
missed the subject.
When a little later Kennedy left
her at the boarding house door, he
held her hand in a lingering clasp.
II hope our next evening will be
without any perilous adventure"
At the breakfast table the next
morning an envelope lay by Margar-
cts plate. Inside was this message:
Any woman alone in New York had better
be careful. She cannot run around with .
r,arried man and not get found out.
Who could have written it? What
had been their motive? Her one i'm
pulse was to take the note to Ken
nedy. She shrank from going to his
office. Urged on by her apprehen-
sion, in less than half an hour she
stood at the entrance of the tower
ing trust building in which he had his
office. When, after a moment, Mar
garet was ushered in, she gave him
the note with tremulous, ut came this
morning." She saw his lips tighten
and an angry flush darken his face as
he read it. He took out a similar
sheet, holding them side by side for
her comparison. 1t was the same
paper, the same blundering type:
