upon coffee-four cups Of it. which
left nothing of value inside the glls-

later he heard her speaking to some
one beneath his window, and, looking
out, saw her directing the removal of
plants from small garden bed to
the Majors conservatory for the win

ior's gardener over something he said,
and this unconcerned cheerfulness of
her was terrible to her son.
He went to his desk, and, searching
the jumbled contents of drawer,
brought forth a large. unframed pho

of newspaper. put 1t under his arm,

of a siIversmith, where he spent sixty
dollars on a resplendently festooned
silver frame for the picture. Having
lunehed upon more coffee, he returned
to the house at two o'clock, carrying
the framed photograph with him, and
placed II upon the center table in the
library, the room most used by Isabel
and Fanny and himself. Then he went
TO a front window of the long "recep-
ton ROOM" and sat looking out
through the lace curtains.
George looked often at his watch,
but his vigil did not last an hour. At

the curtain, he saw an automobile stop

whispered. "She's down there by her

She moved few steps toward him
and halted, her face pallid and awe
struck, and then both stood listening
for anything that might break the ST.

them; that poignant silence was con-

"Tm going to bed now" he said.
"Good night"
Another silence seemed banker

finally her voice came-it was blank,

"Good night"
After he was In bed his thoughts be-
came more tunIultuous than ever;
while among all the inchoate and frag-
mentary sketches OF this dreadful day,
now rising before him the clearest was
of his uncle collapsed in a big chair
with a white tie dangling from his
hand; and one conviction, following
upon that picture, became definite in
Georges mind: that his Uncle George
Anderson was a hopeless dreamer,
from whom no help need be expected,
an amiable imbecile lacking in normal
impulses. and wholly useless in a
struggle which required honor to be
defended by a man of action.
Then would return a vision of Mrs.
Johnson's furious round head, set be-
hind her great bosom like the sun far
sunk on the horizon Of a mountain

voice. "Without sharing in

would get up again-and again-and
pace the floor in his bare feet.
That was what the tormented young
man was doing when daylight came
gauntly il. at his window-pacing the
floor, rubbing his head in his hands,
and muttering:

of all personality and seemingly part
Of the mechanism.
Eugene himself, as he came up the
cement path to the house, was fig
ure of the new era which was in time
to be so disastrous to stiff hats and
skirted coats: and his appearance af-
forded G debonair contrast to that of
the queer-looking duck caperlng at the
Anderson ball in an old dress coat,
and next day chugging up National
avenue through the snow in his night
mare of sewing machine. Eugene
this afternoon was richly clad in new
outdoor mode: his motoring coat was
soft gray fur; his cap and gloves were
OF gray suede, and though Lucy's hand
may have shown itself in the selection
of these high garnitures, he wore them
easily, even with a becoming hint of
jauntiness. Some change might be
seen In his face, too, for a successful
man is seldom to be mistaken, espe-
cially if his temper be genial. Eugene
had begun to look like n millionaire.
But, above everything else, what was
most evident about him, as he came
up the path, was his confidence in the
happiness promised by his present
errand; the anticipation in his eyes
could have been read by a stranger.
His look at the door of Isabel's house
was the look Of a man who is quite
certain that the next moment will re-
veal something ineffably charming, in
expressibly dear.
When the bell rang George
waited at the entrance of the 'recep-
ton room" until a housemaid came
through the hall on her way to answer
the summons.
"You needn't mind. Mary" he told
her. 'Tll see who it is and what they
want. Probably it's only peddler."
'"Thank you, sir. Mister George, !"
said Mary. and returned to the rear of
the house.
George went slowly TO the front door
and halted, regarding the misty silhou-
cite of the caller upon the ornamental
frosted glass. After a minute of
waiting this silhouette changed outline
so that an arm could be distinguished

as if the gentleman outside doubted
whether or not it had sounded and
were minded to try again. But before
the gesture was completed George abb

A slight change Swallowed the face
of Eugene; his look Of happy anticipa-
ton gave way to something formal
and polite. How do you do, George?"
he said. Mrs, Minafer expects to go

GLOBE MILLS CLOSE
 SABOTAGE TINTED

GLOBE, Jan. 7.-Fifteen hundred men are temporarily out of employ ment in this district through the clos ing of the Old Dominion and Arizona Commercial mines. The mines were forced to close when the electrical equipment of the old Dominion flota- ton mill was put out of commission Monday morning, presumably by some one bent on destruction. A bolt was thrown into the motor of the POO horse power motor in the mill, destroying the electrical wndings as 1t cut its way through the machine.
 Manager Mcbride of the Old Donnin- ion mine refused to make any comment on the shut down, other than that the mine would be closed for several days, as the extra motors were ruined m a like manner some time ago.
 Experts who have examined the damage state that it would have been impossible for the bolt to fall into the machine, and are positive the work was intentional.
 The mines of this district have been troubled with sabotage for some time, and frequent complaints of emery dust in the bearings of high speed machines have been reported here. Several days ago nine sticks of dynamite, fused and ready for action, were found beneath the Arizona Eastern railroad bridge in the heart of the city.
 No clues have been found to any of the depredations thus far committed. The followers of direct action and sabotage have been unusually active in this district during the past six months and have been coming out openly in their agitation to "strike on the job"
 Over 5000 in wages will be lost to the district for each day the Old Do- minion mine is closed down.

tRepubIican A. p. Leased wire]

WASHINGTON, Jan. I.-Senator La Toilette of Wisconsin, republican, speaking today in the senate, criticized the sendin~ of American troops to Rus sia, and denied that the soviet govern ment of Russia is pro-German. lie said a mass of information, with documents attesting the reliability of the bolsheV- ists had been brought out of Russia last spring and repeated efforts to pre- sent them to the American government have been without success.
 'I don't know how other senators feel,' Senator La Toilette declared, but l would be false to the people in my state if I did not exhaust every means within my power to ascertain definitely and ultimately what right there is, that hundreds of men from Wisconsin have been sent upon and continued on such an enterprise.
 Senator La Toilette was interrupted by Senator Kenyon, republican, of Iowa, who asked what had become of the resolution introduced by Senator Johnson of California, asking the state department for information relative to the status of relations between this government and Russia.
