housed Grant and his staff during the
siege Of Petersburg. Last fall there
was a confederate reunion at Peters

as General Lees cook during the siege
was there; and in that camp. so ap-

bowed low and left the roOEL-
To the avaricious Donna Isabel Cue
to's frank acknowledgment Of theft
was maddening, and the realization
that she was helpless, nay. dependent
upon his charity for her living, fairly
crucified her proud spirit
All day she brooded, and by the time
evening came she had worked herself
into such a state of nerves that she
could eat no dinner. Some time during
the course of the evening q wild idea
came to Isabel. Knowing that the man.
ager would spend the night beneath
her roof. she planned to kin him. At
first it seemed a simple thing TO do
merely a matter OF a dagger or a pIs-
tol, while he slept-but further thought
revealed appalling risks and difficult
ties, and she decided to wait. Poison
was far safer.
Constant brooding over the treasure
had long since affected Donna ISabe1's
brain, and as q consequence she often
dreamed about it. She dreamed about
it again tonight, and, strangely enough,
her dreams were pleasant Sebastian
appeared, but for once he neither
cursed nor threatened her; and Este
ban, when he came, was again the
lover who had cOurted her in Ha-
bana. 1t was amazing, delightful.
Esteban and she were walking through
the grounds of the quinta and he was
telling her about his casks OF Spanish
sovereigns, about those boxes bound
with iron. about the gold and silver or
naments of heavenly beauty and the
pearls as large as plums- AS he talked
Isabel felt herself grow hot and cold
with anticipation; she experienced
spasms Of delight.
Then Of a sudden IsabeFs whole
dream-wOrld dissolved. She awOke, or
thought she did, at hearing her name
shouted. But although she underwent
the mental and the physical shock OF
being startled from Slumber, although
she felt the first swift fright of a per
son aroused to strange surroundings,
she knew on the instant that she must
still be asleep; for everything about
her was dim and dark, the air was cold
and damp, wet grass rose TO her knees
Before she could half realize her con-
dition she felt herself plunged into
space. She heard herself scream
hoarsely. fearfully, and knew, too late,
that she was indeed awake. Then

Letting himself out into the night, he

ITALIAN INVENTOR SEES
FUTURE USE OF AVIATION

Paris AUG H. Gianna Caproni
tha engineer and inventor of the
great aeroplanc which bears his name
said in an interview today that he
expected to visit the United States
as soon as the war is over Mean
while he is giving all his time TO
war planes and is now studying their
development for commercial purposes.
He is in Paris on a mission for his
government
"Within three years, he said,
"aeroplanes will be perfected with a
carrying capacity Of 100 men They
will have motors capable Of a horse
power as great as the middle-scized
steamships The bombing planes in
use today will be like dwarfs beside
them There is a great surprise in
store for the Germans Instead Of
forty or fifty planes being required
Tor a bombing raid, one with as
much power as the whole squadrille
will take their places. 1t win be more
efficient and a great saving will be
effected.
"a flight across the Atlantic could
be made with the machines now in
use. July, August and September are
now the favorable months, with Octo-
Der also possible Atmospheric con-
ditions would be unfavorable the
rest of the year. Thick fogs make
flying impossible. Aviators can not
steer in a fog because they see only
black. A flight across the ocean in
these days should be made from New
York to the azores and Portugal

ed it will be necessary to establish

Will be necessary.
THE rapid development OF bigger
machines is inevitable. At the begin,
ming of the war the biggest bombing
plane was of 100 horsepower, At pre-
sent the largest bombing plane is Of
1000 horsepower.
"The Liberty motors are doing well.
We want them at present in large
quantities. l have seen them work
and regard them as satisfactory for
bombing planes. Finer mechanisms,
made with special parts, like watch
cannot be made in large quantities;
but the Liberty motor can be turned
out in large numbers, and that gives
it great advantage.
"The warfare of he future will be
mense commercial flying machines
have been perfected it will be an
easy matter to transform them into
battle planes. Great Britain has been
ableto defend herself with a navy,
but in the future nations will be OBJ
liged to maintain vast aerial forces.
Warships will be powerless against
the new flying apparatuses which will
revolutionize warfare both on land
and sea. The activity of the fight
ing units will be greatest in the air.
Armies and battleships will not be
able to measure their strength with
the great bombing machines of the
fpture.

limited, while those Of the Europeans
have been almost depleted by long
years of spoiliation and destruction.
