While the senator hesitated,
there was the sound Of light, fly

marble corridor, followed by the
appearance OF Elsie Downey in the
doorway.

that he had seen her in the Man

Mallon. HSenator, permit me to

Mallon, realizing the uselessness
Of delaying the encounter, swung
open the door and motioned him

hind the two men, leaving Elise
poised in the other doorway, her

Why She Is Hated.

S
Governor Whitman said at a ban
quet in Albany:
Germany has the whole world
against her because she has attempted
to change the eternal verities. The
eternal verities-that you mustn't sink
q hospital ship, that you mustn't MUIR
der babies, that you mustn't betray
your trusting friends, and so forth and
so on-an these things Germany has
tried to change. But she has tried in
vain.
Germany reminds me of the chap
who used to hold out a dollar or two
from his envelope every pay day.
His wife suspected him, and to make
suspicion sure, she got a ready reckon
er to check him up by.
"The next pay day, after consulting
the ready reckoner, she said:
care you sure that's all, George?'
George turned red.
"'Of course it's ALL he said. con-
fusedly, with a cough.
"'Well, George, I got a ready reck-
oner here, and, according to it, I should
get more.'
Lets see your ready reckoner,'
said George.
He examined the book, then he
tossed it contemptuously aside.
""That amt no good he said. It's
last years."

ance. "He's fighting against
liquor, and he's good-like all
those people out there, like the boy
who sang, like the bishop!'
Elise, for the first time, realized
who the woman was-the Mary
Leslie who had attacked the agita-
tor. And Simpson was there, the
man about whom Albert Mitchell
had questioned her. She grasped
Mary by the arm, and, in her ex-
citement, shook her roughly.

asked sharply. "Tell me! What

Mr.. Smith,"
Mary let her head fall on her
arms.
nYes-Smith,'' she sobbed.
Come on, Mary" Simpson
urged thickly, "let's get out of
here"
Mary shook her head in slow re-
fusal.
Elise spring to the open door
way, banged the door shut, and
stood with her back against it. Her
blue, doll like eyes defied Simpson.
She turned toward the door on
the right, the door through which
the agitator had gone, and, still
maintaining her position, began to
call:

She waited a moment and
shrieked:

After what seemed an eternity
to the girl, the door swung open,
and the agitator, followed by
Edith, Mrs. Kane and Senator
Mallon, appeared on the threshold.

stepped closer to the man. "She

Simpson, stupefed by the whis-

by the whole occurrence, admitted
it.

The woman with her head on her

Smith commanded him again:

Simpson answered reluctantly,
as if the others voice and eyes
cOuld not be denied.
"You told me you were born in
q little place called Wolftown. 1t
is in the Virginia mountains some
where, 20 miles from a railroad.
You had some idea-when you
were 16 years old-some idea of
being a preacher. And you had
read a lot Of stuff about it. After

"And then?" Smiths tone
showed his utter bewilderment.

CHAPTER Xxx.

CHAPTER xxx.
Elise had been in the room hard
" more than five minutes when,
above, the roar Of the crowd at the
capitol, she heard the noise of
shutting feet in the corridor cut
side. There was in the sound of
the footsteps something peculiar,
Us if an afflicted man dragged his
feet or staggered heavily under
some burden. She ran to the door
and looked down the corridor.
What she saw moved her to in
stant sympathy.
Bring her herein here!'' she
said urgently to the person OUT
side, and threw the door wide
open.
Tho shnffling feet came nearer.
Poor thing!' Miss Downey
commented, awaiting the APP
proach. aAh, be gentle with her,
cant yon?s
The man Simpson appeared in
the doorway. He practically car
ried Mary Leslie. He had been
drinking heavily, and, as he
stepped into the room, his grasp
relaxed. His burden would have
slipped to the floor but for the as
sistance Of Elise, who sprang for
ward to help.
The Leslie woman barely could
summon the strength to put one
foot before the other She could
not support her own weight. The
wilderness Of her face was CHASTITY.
There was in it no trace Of color
except that of her carmined lips
and the shadow Of the blue lids
over her closed eyes. Her arms
hung imply at her sides, and now
andsthen q dry sob shook her pitt
fully. She wore a light blue coat
suit, the skirt Of which was edged
with fur, and the plume iii her
light blue hat was absurdly large.
It was al if she had tried to redeem
herself with clothes. As Elise
caught her, she groaned.
Staggering and half falling
between Elise and Simpson,, she
got a. far ID The big table against
the left wall Of the Office and sank

best natured man in the mid Columbia,
has at last had his patience exhausted
by depredations of boys in swimming
on Columbia beach near his ferry
wharves.
"The boys have ripped off boards
from buildings and built fires with
them, they threw q valuable pump in

stroyed valuable lot of material that
