CHAPTER XVI.
The Crash.

The several days following Dawes
spent in a delightful reverie. She had
so often wrestled with the question of
divorce that she had begun to weary
of 1t. She gave up trying, at length,
and for the time being rested content
in the knowledge that she loved and
was loved. A week passed while she
Rugged her thoughts to her breast, and
then one evening she rode home to
learn that Ed had returned from San
Antonio.
But Ed was i'll, and he did not ap-
pear at dinner. 1t had been years
er's privacy, and now, inasmuch as her
husband did not send for her, Alaire
did not presume to offer her services as
nurse. AS a matter of fact, she con-
sidered this quite unnecessary, for she
felt sure that he was either suffering
the city or else that he lacked the
moral courage to undertake an expla-
nation of his hurried flight from the
ranch. In either event she was glad
he kept to his room.
When Austin made his appearance,
on the day following his return, his
bleared eyes, his puffy, pasty cheeks,
his shattered nerves, showed plainly
enough how he had spent his time AL
though he was jumpy and irritable, he
seemed determined by an assumption
of high spirits and exaggerated friend
liness to avert criticism. Since Alaire
| spared him all reproaches, his efforts
seemed TO meet with admirable sue
cess. Now Eds opinion of women was
not high, for those with whom he ha-
bitually associated were of small In
| telligence; and. seeing that his wife
continued TO manifest q complete in
difference TO his past actions, he de-
cided that his apprehensions had been
groundless. If Alaire remembered the
| Guzman affair at all, or if she had sus-
pected him of completely in 1t. time had
evidently dulled her suspicious, and he
was little sorry he had taken pains
to stay away so long.
Before many days, however, he dis
covered that this indifference of hers
was not assumed, and that in some
way or other she had changed. Ed
was accustomed when he returned ex-
hausted from debauch, to seeing in
his Awife's eyes q strained misery; he
had learned to expect in her bearing
sort of plying, hopeless resignation.
But this time she was not In the least
! depressed. On the contrary, she APP
peared happier, fresher, and-younger
than he had seen her for a long time.
1t was mystifying When, one morn
| ing. he overheard her singing in her
room, he was shocked. Over this phe-
nomenon he meditated with growing
amazement and a faint stir of resent
ment in his breast. for he lived a self
centered life, considering himself the
pivot upon which revolved all the af-
fairs of his little world. To feel that
he had lost even the power TO make
his wife unhappy argued that he had
overestimated his Importance.
AT length, having sufficiently recov-
cred his health to begin drinking again,
he yielded one evening to an alcoholic
impulse, and, just as Alaire babe him
good night, clumsily sought to force
an explanation.
"See herem he shot at her. whats
the matter with you lately?" He saw

intention TO resign the pastorste OF me
Westminster Congregational Chapel,

due to overwork.
Dr.. G. Campbell Morgan is well
known in America, and particularly IN
this city, where he has often preached.
He hos refused many invitations 20
the pastorates of prominent New YORK
churches. among them calls 10 the
Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church IN
1899 and 1910, 10 the Central Congte-
gational Church, Of Brooklyn, IN 1900,
and to the Madison Avenue Reformed
Church in 1913.
In 1900 Or. Morgan succeeded Dwight
L. Moody IN the pastorate st North-
field. during the summer conference
and through the years that followed
attracted great attention by ms
vigorous evangelistiC activities IN inns

last month, Dr. Morgan severely as

SUBTLE perils are threatening US now

Of the President of the American Re

clined to express any opinion as 10 'ne

WILSON URGES
ANTI-PORK BOARD
Wants Commission to Pass
on All Rivers and Har-
bors Appropriations
From rhs Tribune Bureau J


Washington, Jan. S.-Urging the ap-
rointment Of a commission, probably
headed by the Secretary OF war 10
mass on rivers and harbors appropris-
tons jointly with the army engineers
President Wilson indicated plainly to-
day that he had climbed on the anti
pork band wagon.
Representative Spsrkman, chairman
Of the House Rivers and Harbors Com
mittee. conferred with the President
about his bill. which he has pruned
from s14O.O0G,0OO to s3s.Ooo'ooO by
eliminating the gressiest part OF the
rcrk. The President told him that ne
favored the commission plan, which is
acceptable TO Mr.. Sparkman.
There has been no danger that any
pcrk will remain in this bill, or IN the
i,ublic buildings bill either, because the
Senate has been standing by with the
pruning knife. President Wilson, after
learning this, took a similar stand
though last year ne signed the $4,000
600 rivers and harbors bill.
The Endorsement by Mr.. wilson o.
the commission plan. however appears
10 be a move toward permanent elm

that. regardless of the views Of the
Americ; n commissioners, President
Wilson regards the situation as en-
courssing. Whether he plans TO rtaeh
settlement with CaTranza through
the commission or through other chan
nels is uncertain, and is not essential
Ii the commission continues its PAR
lays il will deal with very subordinate
questions, until the American troops
are out of Mexico, and the retirement
will take about two months.
Ir the meantime the Administration s
plans will develop. At resent they
