 REVELATIONS OF A WIFE

"Oh, yes," l returned, laughing ''entirely too much so sometimes For instance, if I had told him the real state of affairs he would immc- diately have refused to go on with the party. and insisted upon going home at Once.''
 II suspected as much,' she Saic quietly. "Now what do you wish tc do, put on the blue when he returns with it or go on with the White?'
 ''Oh, the white, by all means. But we'll not hint such a thing when he returns. I'll make a chance down stairs to whisper to him that We found we could fix the Other.'
 Now for Milly.'
 ''Vcry we'll then, let's hurry. Keep on that thing, so if Milly comes up she won't suspect anything. Luckily there need be no trying on to the other.
 We worked with such expedition that long before Dicky returned the white gown hung in the closet with no trace to any eyes but those sharp and experienced as our own that 1t had been altered. The soiled panel was tucked in the depths of my opera bag with every tell-taie scrap and thread of our sewing. And once more divested of the atrocious pink gown I made a careful toilet for the evening. putting on the white pumps and sill1en hose which were the ac- compartment of the White gown. Dicky arrived just as l had hnlshed, and with an excuse that l was dress ing. Alice Holcombe met him outside the door and took from him the blue gown, But it was the white one into which she assisted me as soon as the door was closed, and when she had finished she held me off at arms length and looked at me.
 II suppose you know you're the prettiest thing going ill that gown" she said.
 '"Thank you. As my Katie would say. you're some shakes yourself.
 She colored She was picture of high bred daintiness in her gown of silver crepe.
 After 35 our one aim is to avoid the whisper, Which old trump IS that?" she retorted bitterly. NOW for Milly."
 Before I could answer we heard Mrs. Stockbridge's voice outside.
 Are you nearly ready, girls?' she called.
 Miss Holcombe threw the door open.
 "All ready" she said. Come in and see the pleasant surprise we have for you.'

Dublin. May 9.-The military oc- cupation of the Mansion House here which was effected by soldiers and police shortly before 5:3O o'clock this afternoon was not aimed at the sup pression of the Irish parliament, whose sessions are held there but was intended to effect the arrest of Robert Barton and J. J. Walsh, Sim Fein members of parliament and others who had recently escaped from Mountjoy prison and were believed to be in the building.
 Dawson street on which the Man sion House stands and all on the adjacent streets were cleared of peO- pie and tramway traffic was 3us- pended.
 Parliament, which had met earlier in the day had adjourned but the building was to be used in the eve- ming for a reception by the lord mayor to Frank P. Walsh, Michael F. Ryan and former Governor rId- ward Dunne of Illinois, the visiting representatives of Irish societies of America. The troops remained in the structure nearly two hours by which time the lord mayors guests for the reception were arriving These guests, including the American dele gates were held up outside the cordon of troops with machine guns which had been thrown about the building.
 Eventually the troops were with drawn without having captured the men who were sought The recep- tion then proceeded.
 Large crowds outside cheered the Sim Fein leaders as they arrived
