dering the Potomac. The houses here
were old, many appearing vacant and
tumble-down, and for the most part
standing each in little garden.
Mark was beginning to think Of
tackling the fugitive, who, unconscious
of pursuit, was about fifty PAGES in
front of him, when suddenly the man
turned In at the tiny garden of an APP
parently deserted house and knocked
at the door, which was opened almost
Immediately.
Mark heard q subdued scream, and
then the mans voice in angry alterca-
ton.
He was talking to the woman who
had opened the door. She looked
about five and thirty years of age, and
her face. distinctly visible against the
light in the hall, was well-bred. IL not
attractive. She seemed one of those
cosmopolitans who frequent the capt.
tai; Mark was still uncertain whether
her house was one OF those residences
that are still occupied In this district
by the original owners, or whether she
was the mistress of one of those gam
bling establishments that flourish of
necessity along the avenues of the
earlier alphabet.
The man seemed to be pleading with
her, his gestures were growing fran
tic. He looked about five and forty
years of age; his face struck Mark
with certain odd familiarity, though
he had never seen him closely before,
and bore traces of breeding, blurred
either by dissolute habits or by mis-
fortune.

mothers cooking and little homesick

Some of the Red Cross chapters are
making hospital slippers for con-
valescent soldiers Of scraps of llnoleum
and wOrnout trousers of heavy wool
cloth. Ii is remarkable the way in
which the war is teaching people how
to utilize things that used to go to-
waste. The soles of the slippers are
cut from the bits of linoleum, the fig
ured side to be the outside. The
linoleum may be somewhat the worse
for wear and still be used for these
slipper soles. The uppers are cut
from the good parts of worn trousers.
They are made in different sizes and
shapes. Directions for cutting them
can be obtained through the Red Cross
chapters. Soft insOles such as are
used for bedroom slippers or insoles
of warm fabrics make them more COM
Portable. Our casualty lists are grow
ing large and English casualties are
much larger. Every woman will be
glad TO volunteer TO do work Of this
kind for the comfort of the wounded.

G.A. 2n7aA,
Egyptian in Effect.

The Egyptian is said to be the DOM
inant influence in the new materials
for hangings. Fabrics with this type
of ornamentation have their use in
certain places, but as in the case Of
the drap de guerre they require
clever hand when the pattern is of de-
cided Egyptian origin. Unless guided
by an expert the average woman
would do well to be satisfied with an
odd piece done in these extreme novel
ties. Frequently they are most effec-
tive when employed as bands on
natural-toned fabric or on a two-toned
stripe. Entire hangings or whole sets
covered with these designs are likely
to prove too heavy, and one soon tires
of them.

JUSTICE ACCORDING TO TURK
Idea OF Fairness Held by Sultan's
Courts on Par With Those Of
Kaiser Wilhelm.

There are many entertaining stories
Of the tobacco smucglers of MOsul. one
of which Mr.. William Warfield in,
cludes in his book, "The Gate of Asia"
In Turkey, as the author explains, the
government farms out the tobacco mo-
nopoly TO a company called the reggie,
which has the sole right of manufac-
turing and selling that valuable com
Todity. II handles the tobacco at
great profit both to itself and to the
government. The company has its
own force of inspectors. guards and
police.
One day the police and guards at
tackled a caravan that belonged to the
leading smuggler of the city as it was
passing through the streets. In the
skirmish policeman was killed, a
fact that could not be overlooked even
by the authorities, who were accus-
toned to receive their cigarettes from
the great smuggler without charge
and without the stamp of the reggie.
1t happened that the fatal bullet was
of peculiar type that fitted only one
rifle in the city. q rifle that belonged
20 the great smuggler himself, who
never allowed it out of his reach.
Furthermore, there were those who
had seen its owner upon n roof that
overlooked the scene of the fracas.
Under such provocation that person
age had to be arrested. But he waA
not kept in durance vile; the police
allowed him to sit at the door of the
coffee house outside the city Jail,
whence he set his friends and adher.
ents to oppose those who came TO
make complaint against him.
At the trial II was held that the
policeman was guilty Of contributory

man seen on the roof, it was ruled

bar, and it was not right that the law
should pry into them.

1t was on that night that Mark felt
at the end of his powers.
1t was early. he had dined and was
sitting discOnsolately in his apartment |;
nothing seemed of any value to him ut
that moment, and his thoughts were
ranging round their eternal subject.
Had it been necessary that he should
have treated Mrs. Howard and FL
eanor boorishly. to protect himself?
He put on his hat and went out,
meaning to pay them a visit, or, at
least, to walk toward their house while
making his decision. He had not de-
cided by the time he reached Massa-
chusetts' circle, and, as he stopped in
doubt, he saw IA man across the road,
staring up at the house.
OF a sudden Eleanors story required
to his mind with vivid force. The man
was obviously watching the house, and
he meant to stay there.
But, as Mark started toward him,
the man seemed to take fear, and
shambled away. Something in his gait
brought back TO Marks mind the recol-
lection of the man whom he had seen
outside the Misses Harpers' school.
And he began to follow him. 1t was
"A role that he had never played before,
| but justified, in his mind, by the neces-
sity of discovering the fellows identi-

in his mind how he was to accomplish
this, Mark made his way after the soli-
tary figure, keeping well behind it.
1t soon became clear that the man,
although he looked like tramp, had a
definite objective. Mark pursued him
| toward Pennsylvania avenue, until he
discovered that he was nearing the
least desirable part of Washington,
whose location, so near the residence
of the chief executive, has always been
the wonder and scandal of visitors.

STATE JAN BUILD
 THREE MORE ROADS

Word was received at the office of the state engineer yesterday of the ap- proval cf three road improvement pro- jects in this state. One of them relates to a road through the Terrified Forest; another to the road between Hunt and Concho, and another to the road be- tween Antelope Hill and Agua Caliente.
 Several rulings of interest to cities contemplating making improvements have been issued by the United States highways council, notice of which has been received at the office of the state engineer, which represents the coun- cil in this state. One of them allows the purchase of corrugated iron cui- verts without the permission of the council, provided the mills from which the culverts are purchased already have on hand the iron sheets.
 Another ruling of interest is one pro- viding that where a city has material on hand for construction. it may put in an application to the office of the state engineer without waiting for au- thorizaticn from the council to pro- ceed with the construction.

B|G RUSH Is ON FUR
 CAPTURED WHISKY

The sheriff's office for the past two days has been besieged with plain citizens, claiming to be almost dead from influenza, and by doctors, re- questing whiskey fer use in treatment Of patients, as a result of an article appearing in a Phoenix newspaper, in effect, that whiskey would be served to persons having the influenza.
 The sheriffs office announced last night that the whiskey is there, plenty of it. but that Sheriff W. H. Wilky is the only living man with key to the whiskey room. and that Dr. O. H. Brown. state health officer, $ the only man who can get whiskey from that room.
 Whiskey has proved to be valua- ble medicine in the treatment of Span ish influenza, medical men say, and in consequence Dr. Brown has been com mandeering whiskey from the sheriffs. In the case of the Maricopa sheriffs office, he has been calling in person and taking the whiskey away in person. according to the sheriff's force yester- day. He then issues the whiskey to doctors for their patients. In other counties he has empowered certain persons to draw upon the sheriffs for what whiskey is needed in the treat ment of Spanish influenza.

It was a good thing for Judge O'Con- nor of Santa Cruz county that State Librarian Con P. Cronin, during the ten years he has been absent from No gales, has retained his legal residence there. Otherwise Judge O'Conncr would not be judge for the next two years.
 Mir. and Mrs. Cronin drove there to vote and took with them another for mer resident and still a legal citizen all of whom cast their votes for the judge. He was elected by majority of 2.
 Perhaps MT. Cronin would not have made the trip if he had had no other business than that of voting He would not likely have supposed that three votes would be so decisive. His chief purpose was to look into the War Work drive in that part of the state, and found it proceeding admirably.
