He paused, checked by the en-
trance of a man through the door
that led into the meeting room of
the committee. The newcomer,
h~esitating in the doorway, looked
casually at Waller, and, from that,
stared at Smith. The mems eyes
met and held for a long moment.
The stranger were q fashy blue
suit that had in it a broad, lateral
stripe of white. Above a wildly
lowered vest he had spread a carl
out cravat of brilliant red. His
derby was slanted to one side. He
looked like a low type Of profess
slonal gambler. There was about
MN nothing striking except his
%vulgarity, but something in his
stare built the encounter into a
real scene. The hint of fear that
had been in his eyes turned to eff
frontery. Standing there, perfect
" still, his dissipated face a con
fession of sin, his clothing an out
rage against good taste, his whole
bearing an advertisement of weak
ness, he finally lowered his gaze
from Smith s and laughed.
The insolence of it was so pro-
nounced, so direct, that Smith
looked questioningly to Waller.
The stranger, a smile of impu-
dence still upon his lips, turned to
Miss Downey.
Where's Mr.. Mitchell he
asked.
Miss Downey evidently had seen
him before.
Hes still with MI. Manners
ley she replied cool1y. She even
forgot to end the sentence on a
high key.
Don't guess I'll wait any long
er, then," he announced going
toward the door leading into the
corridor.
As he went out he tn, ned his
head so that he might see Smith
once more. He laughed again,
this time as if he felt some odd sort
OF embarrassment. He did not
close the door after him, and Miss
Downey rose quickly, asfif by in
stinct, to shut it and keep out some
unpleasant thing. !

asked, turning to Waller.

element.

a low tone, "that that fellow

Smith did not reply. He had
turned to meet Mannersley. who.
followed by Albert Mitchell the
lobbyist, was entering the room.

THE New York World" seems to think
that the suffragist organization should
have taken more positive steps than mere
resolution and asks these questions:
HAS the suFrsgist organization ever sent

to the President its utter dsapproval and
deteststion of the Germany helping tactics
Of the militants?
Has it ever adopted resolutions addressed
TO the President himself repudsting in toto
the pcketing of the White House?
Has il ever called upon the authorities in
Washington to use all lawful methods TO
prevent these highly dangerous demonstra-
tions?
unless the Saratoga conference takes def
mite and positive action in regard to the
White House pickets and the fragrant disloy-
atty of their conduct, il cannot escape its
own share Of responsibility for practices that
will otherwise cost the suffrage amendment
