N American fiction; an Italian gen.
tieman who knows the world thor

American girl to crafty her msthelic
tastes and intelligence without making

travels in Europe. A competent man
sger runs the business so as to secure
profits; his methods are dIstasteful to

misdeeds are aggravated later, when
he employs an efficiency expert to

on him like a narcotic. The Socialist
sage tries to avert a strike and is
killed, whereupon the hero takes his
task on himself. He does not treat
the girl to whom he is engaged fairly.
for he poIlfs on her at one sitting all
the sociology he has acquired In year
and, as she neither understands nor
sympathizes with him. she prefers to
leave the management OF her factory

and to abstain from trying to improve
the lot Of the workmen. There 10
nothing to show that she could not

the hero free to marry his Socialist
maiden. while she returns to Europe
and her italian friend. The scene Of
the conflict between capital and labor
Is across the Canadian border.

various heirs of the late Mark Nor
gan were arrayed as plaintiffs and
defendants, was compromised here
yesterday. The case was TO have been
called for trial at the term Of Super
ior court which opened here yester-
day. According to the terms of the
agreement, the estate, which had an
estimated valuation Of 100000, will
be divided between beneficiaries.T These

belonging to Willie Morgan, a grand
child who died last year while a stu
dent at Davidson college, will be di-
vided between Mrs. Mcclure and Mrs.

a score of lawyers were retained on
the opposing sides.
