progress, step by step, of structural
iron work from the time Harrison
Stuart died until he came back to
life. The man who had been away
during those fifteen years listened in
abstracted concentration, and, now
and then, as he gave his rapt atten-
ton to the speaker, slipped from his
glass, not noticing that he was drink
ing the champagne. That habit came
back to him naturally and without
thought, after fifteen years of alb
sence from banquets, just as the habit
of politeness had come back to him.
That walters passed quietly down
along the table, and set little de-
cantes of after-coffee brandy at close
intervals.
There were other speeches, some
droning and dry, some frivolous and
enlivening, some tensely interesting
from technical standpoint; but late
towards the close of the evening,
when the ladies in the gallery were
painfully fighting off drowsiness, and
Tommy Tinkle was doing everything
he could to keep Tavy and Mrs. Stuart
awake, there suddenly burst q new
voice on the assemblage.
Whisky" The tones were startling
in their coarse nervousness. IT'S the
curse of the world" The voice rose
to a senile shrek. There is no hell
but whisky! Drink! It's the enemy
of man and God! 1t burns the body
and it sears the brain Whisky"
There was a shrek from the ladies'
gallery. 1t was not Harrison Stuart
who swayed there, his face flushed
and puffed, his bleared eyes half
closed, and his lips formless; but a
beast, an animal, a Thing from an
other world. 1t was Bow-Wow!

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
THEIR MARRIED LIFE"

I Helen hoped that the subject would
be dropped, and she turned to go to
bed, thinking that If she avoided
speaking of 1t further that Warren
would forget it more easily But
matters had not been settled for
Warren by any means.
80 you think you would like to
try your hand at a career" he said
sarcastically, as the door closed on
Ned.
Helen considered a moment before
answering. She did not want to an
tagonize Warren, and yet there was
something in her that refused to be
bullied.
Warren looked at her curiously
when she did not answer, and she
finally raised her eyes to him and
spoke.
"I don't know what to say, War
rem; you have such decided views on
the subject | had no idea of ever
having the opportunity to consider
any kind of a career, | never thought
1 knew enough. | still don't, but if
thought / did. it would make me
happier than anything | could think
Of"
You're not interested any longer
in the life you are leading and in
knowing the women you have known.
You must ape these women like
Frances Knowles and her set who
must have career and be indepen-
dent"
81 think every woman should be
Independent" Helen returned.
You are not answering my ques-
ton"
well, Warren, what Ned says is
true. | have the time. Men seldom
come home to lunch. Mary is here
to look after the house; Winifred is
in school all day. There is no rea-
ca 20, I,n
excepting for the fact that you OBJ
ject."
Warren broke out at this 'Then
you are considering it. Well, by
George! before the fellows get
chance to say that l can't support
my wife, and that she has to go to
work, I'll do something, let me tell
you"
You're looking at it all wrong,
dear" Helen said gently. AT first
the idea frightened me; but, now
that have become used to it, it GER
tainly has an appeal. 1t would estab-
lish me on another basis, and / should
feel so different toward our home,
But of course | am not going to con-
slider it if you object to it. | shall
do as you like; you know that"
or course Warren knew it - he
had known it all along - but he was
not content to leave well enough
alone.
You are all excited with the idea
that perhaps you can do something,
aren't you?' he sneered We'll, don't
flatter yourself. Don't imagine for
a moment that Ned Burns offered you
that position because you have talent;
he's just crazy about you,l that's all,
and YOU know it. | shouldn't be a
bit surprised if that fiancee of his was
a made up, too; he didn't seem anx-
ious to talk about her, and l never
liked the fellow anyway"

Slayer of Husband Tells
How She Killed Him

York, Pa, Jan. 81. -- Mrs. Annie
McClaskey Dellinger, slayer of her
husband, Harry, of Chance Ford
township, had preliminary hearing
yesterday.
The woman has maintained remark
able composure ever since January 1S,
when, about midnight according to
her own admission, she shot her hus-
band to death in their home She says
they quarreled and that he threatened
to kill her
At first the woman said stranger
was the slayer.
After killing her husband TIE woman
said she sat through the night with
the body, her 3-year-o son and her
year-old daughter being with her.
The boy says his mother was sitting
on his fathers lap when she shot
him. Mrs. Dellinger says she stood
behind the man.

Neds proposition had left Warren
sarcastic and Helen timorous, al
though she fegned complete conf
dence. Not for the world would she
have allowed Warren to see that she
was frightened at the turn things had
taken.
Ned having thrown the bomb,
waited to see what would happen.
He had not expected that Helen
would come to his aid so quickly.
He had supposed that it would take
some time to convince her after
Warren had heard the news.
so you and Ned have been con-
niving together, have you?" said War;
ren evenly.
mo, Warren, Nor' said Helen
quickly Ned spoke of the posi-
take it. l asked him how he hap
pened to think of me. 1t was as
much of surprise to me as it was to
you"
But you said you would consider
mo, I told Ned definitely that I
would not dream of taking it, but
Eour manner infuriated me, when
You spoke that way tonight. Of
course l do know that plenty of wo-
men who lead happy lives with their
husbands have an outside interest,
even work in offices, but L never
thought of doing it myself"
As usual Helen's impulsive defense
of herself had petered out, and she
was once more fearful of Warrens
attitude toward her.
We'll. if you told Ned definitely
that you would not take the posi-
ton" Warren returned, "why does he
insist upon it? You must have i'm
piled in some way that you would
like it,"
"Ill answer that question if you
don't mind" put in Ned imperturb-
ably. Il thought that it would be only
fair to Helen to get your opinion on
the matter. She seemed afraid to tell
you herself, because she know your
opinion on the subject, but / thought
that you ought to see it from her
standpoint if possible"
suppose you mean that by re-
fusing to consider Helen as an Of
flee fixture l am interfering with her
me- said Warren ominouSly. "Of
course, being her husband has little
weight in a discussion of this kind"
Ned shrugged his shoulders as
though there was no use in argu-
ing, and said simply:
We'll, | really wanted Helen for
this position, and ] thought it would
be good chance for her. There's no
reason why woman with as much
time on her hands as she has and
with so many points in her favor,
should not be given a chance to de-
velop herself, to stand alone. and
think for herself. I didn't think you
considered her wifehood more import
ant than the fact that she is d wo-
man."
And with these words Ned turned
the topic of conversation to some
thing general, and shortly after
went. There was nothing else for
him to do. His words had left War
rem angry, and Helen did not dare
say anything.

Baltimore, Nd, Jan. 91.-Mrs. Mich

left in the tea room at the hotel before
going in to dinner

Washington to visit Mr.. and Mrs. J. S.
Grayden, of Cincinnati, who are guests
at the BelVedere. Shortly after her
arrival she and the Graydens went into
the tea room, where they cnioyed re-
freshments, and Mrs. Longworth
placed the cigaret case upon table.
Later the party went to the main din
ing room for dinner and the case was
left on the table, where it was found
by an employe of the hotel
The clerk through the telephone in
few seconds informea Mrs. Long

Merchant Captain Gets
$4,000 For Sinking U-Boat

Boston, Jan. 81. A reward of
$4,000 for sinking German submar-
inc in the Bay of Biscay some months
ago has been paid by the British
Admiralty to Captain w. r. Miller, of
the British freighter Clan Robertson,
in port here from Liverpool. AT the
time of the encounter Captain Miller
was in command of the British steam
ship Clan Mi.cFayden, bound from
India for London. AS the submarine
approached and prepared to make an
attack the steamship let loose with a
gun mounted on her forward deck.
The aim was fair, for it was said that
she submarine lurcked heavily and
plunged to the bottom bow first.
Investigation of Captain Millers re-
port by Admiralty officials satisfied
them, it was said that the steamship
had destroyed an enemy craft, and
the standing reward for a scalp at sea
was paid.

Close Hundred Saloons
in Mahanoy City

Pottsville. Pa, Jan. 31.-The Rettig
Brewery, of Pottsville, and the Ash
land Brewery, of Fountain Springs,
whose petitions were held up by court
We're granted licenses yesterday. All
other licenses, however continue to be
held up because of the deadlock be-
tween Judges Bechtel and Koch, al
though attorneys for the tifty-two Ma
hanoy City saloonkeepers whose Ii
censes are held up succeeded in fore
ing a hearing on a technical point.
Attorney NJ. j. Ryan moved to dis
miss these remonstrances because
they do not contain any allegation of
any change as to the necessity of
those places since tie court passed
upon them year ago, and does not
bring up any new issue. Judge Koch
heard argument on this point to-day.
The objections to the two brewery
licenses were that these breweries
were interested contrary to law, in
the retail trade. The licenses of all
saloons end tonight and nearly a
hundred will be obliged to close.

This is as handsome a coat as the girl
can wear. Here, it is made of dark green
velours and it is trimmed with champagne
colored broadcloth that is embroidered
with dark but rich colors. 1t could Of
course be copied in velours of any color
or in any other seasonable cloaking ma
terial, but the green is fashionable and
the trimming Of broadcloth is one of the
smartest and best liked. Fur cloth
makes handsome coats of this sort, too,
also burella cloth and bolivia cloth are
desirable, or broadcloth, because warmth
always can be supplied by an interlining.
Broadcloth with fur collar and cuffs
would make a very smart coat, or with
