do not remember much OF the
trip from our house in Marvin to
Lillian's apartment in New York,
which Grace Diapers sister, Mrs.
German. Katie. Lillian Underwood
and / took, following the telephone
message from Harry Underwood.
Lillian had told US all she knew,
that Grace Draper was seriously
hurt, Dicky slightly so, and that
they were at the Underwood apart
ment.
This news. coming upon the heels
Of the letter Grace Draper had writ
ten her sister. and which Mrs. Cor
man had brought 20 US. stating the
girls intention TO kill Dicky and
herself. gave us a fairly good idea
OF what had happened
Two thoughts FLASHED in my brain
constantly in the hurried flight of
the taxi 20 the Crest Haven station.
the interminable slowness of the
accommodate ton train from Crest
Haven 10 the city, and the swift
rush of the taxi Lillian comman-
deered AT the terminal to bear US TO
her apartment One was the ter
rible gripping query, which throb-
bed ceaselessly in my mind. will
Dicky live. or is Lillian deceiving me
as 20 the extent OF his injuries ?"
The other was an emotion Of which
7 was ashamed. / felt that no hint
OF II should have entered my soul
while Dicky was in such danger.
1t was a fierce throb Of JOY in an
swer to the question which had so
tormented me concerning the real
ity OF Dicky's final emancipation
from the thraldom Of Grace Diapers
fascination. She had said in her
letter 10 her sister: by the time
you read this I shall have gone on
a long journey, the longest of all.
There is but one possibility that will
make me defer this journey until
later. That possibility / shall find
out about tonight. But II the an
swer to a question I shall ask is
the one that will make me defer
my journey it is also an answer that
will always separate me from you.
anyway. If the answer is such as
10 make me take my Journey rest
assured I will not go alone"
If her letter meant anything az
ALL it meant that she had made one
final made effort 10 enslave Dicky,
and failing had attempted to carry
out the vengeance she had threaten
ed that she would have "Oh! such
rare company" on her Longest
journey Of all"
''Dicky. Where Is Dicky?"
Dicky must have refused her last
wild appeal He was all my own,
even in death Only a wife who has
been through the living hell of
jealousy that I had endured during
the summer can understand the
paean of wild joy that went up
from my heart. l would rather have
Dicky dead, and know that his last
heart beats were mine and mine
alone than to know that he lived
and yielded 20 the wiles of the beau
tiful siren I so hated.
Betty. Lillian's colored cook, who
was devoted TO her mistress. opened
the door for us as soon as she
heard the taxi stop.
"Fo' de Lawd's sake, Miss Lii
liam" she exclaimed lifting her
hands and swaying her whole pom
derous form in indignation, what

HOWLETT CONCERN
LANDS CONTRACTS

William Hewlett, Moline, head OF
the Hewlett Construction company
Saturday received notice that his
bid for constructing two more
coaling stations for the Great
Northern Railroad company has
been accepted. Each station will
represent an expenditure OF ap-
proximately $4,000. They will be
built in the far west. One is to
be OF 500-tOn storage capacity and
the other will be of 300-ton capac-
tty, each being equipped to hoist
rs tons an hour
The Hewlett Construction conf
pany has built four coal!ng sta
lions for the Great Northern in the
west. Contracts were let for four
stations in 1916, and in competi-
ton with contractors all over thu
country the Moline company was
given the contract to build one of
the stations. Last year the Great
Northern had three more stations
built and Hewlett received the cou-
tract for all of them without any
other construction company being
considered. That the company Is
to build two more this year Is fur
Their testimony Of the satisfaction
given in the past.
