"You forget the dictatorial sheriff.
Mr.. Rushcroft," said Barnes.
'Hhe varleti" barked Mr.. Rushcroft.
1t was arranged that DHlingford and
Bacon we're to go to Hornville in a
hired motor that afternoon, secure, the
Judgment, pay the costs, and attend
to the removal of the personal belong
ings of the stranded quartette from
the hotel to Hart's Tavern. The
younger actors stoutly refused to ac-
cept Barnes offer to pay their board
while at the Tavern. That, they de-
clared, would be charity, and they pre-
ferred his friendship and his respect
to anything of that sort. Miss Thack-
cray, however, was to be Immediately
relieved of her position as chamber
maid. She was to become a paying
guest.
Rushcroft took the whole affair with
the most noteworthy complacency. He

doing Barnes q great favor in allowing
him to lend money to a person of his

"a thought has just come to me,
my dear fellow" he remarked as they
arose from table. "With the proper

of the most stupendous things the the

}"Just a minute" interrupted Put
nam Jones, wholly unimpressed. "a
man just called you up on the phone,
MIR. Barnes. l told him you was en-
tertaining royalty at lunch and
couldn't be disturbed. SO he asked
me to have you call him up as soon
as you revived His words, not mine
Call up Mr.. ODowd at Green Fancy.
Here's the number"
The mellow voice of the Irishman
soon responded to Barnes call.
Il called you up to relieve your
mind regarding the young woman who
came last night" he said. "You OBJ
serve that l say came She's quite
all right, safe and sound, and no cause
for uneasiness. l thought you meant
that she was coming here as a guest,
and so | made the very natural mis-
take of saying she hadn't come at all,
at all. The young woman in question
is Mrs. Van Dykes maid. But, bless
me soul, how was to know she was
even in existence, much less expected
by train or motor or Shanks' mare?
Well, she's here, so there's the end of
our mystery"
Barnes was slow in replying. He
wa2 doubling his own ears. 1t was not
conceivable that an ordinary--or even
an extraordinary-lady maid could
have possessed the exquisite voice and

the day before, or the temerity to

"But l thought you said that Mr..

instructed to tell Peter to meet the

'Well, I'm tremendously relieved

she kept her veil down. If you were

Famous English Novel Dramatized,
Captain Houghton Townleys strong
~ dramatic and emotional novel por-
traying high society life in England,
The Bishops Emeralds," has been
photodramatized by Virginia Pearson,
PhotoDlays, Inc, and will be presented

Screen" and gives her ample oppor-
tunity to display those talents for

ceptional popularity in motion pic
lures will be largely increased by her
splendid acting in this emotional Gre
alton, wherein she fills the eye as a
statuesque beauty and an enchanting
sartoria symphony.

iste--a consummate coincidence who
nils the lighter phases with elegance
and enduring charm and tragedienne
who rises to tremendous climax with
natural and entirely convincing ex-
preston.
The Bishops Emeralds" is pho
toplay which all motion picture fans

REACH AGREEMENT
ON PROHIBITION

After Three Weeks Deadlock Between
Senate and House COnfcrees BrOk-
en. Provides for Strict Enforcement
Of the Federal "Dry" Law.
Washington, Oct. breaking three
weeks deadlock, Senate and House
conferees reached an agreement to-
day on the prohibition enforcement
bill. Quick approval Of the conferees'
report is expected by leaders and
the measure may go to the President
early next week.
The bill, which establishes one-hEIlf
Of one per cent as the maximum alco-
holic content Of beverages, was passed
by the house July 22d and by the
Senate September 5th. The conference
report will be acted on first by the
Senate, to which it will be reported
Friday and then sent to the House.
The bill will be returned from con-
ference without fundamental changes
in it's plan for strict enforcement both
OF the wartime prohibition law and
commissioner of internal revenue
and department Of justice. Provisions
for manufacture and sale of industrial
spirits and Of spirits for sacramental
anu scientific use are retained but rig
ourous safeguards against manufac-
tuer and sale Of drinks for any other
purpose are provided.
The Senate conferees, however, sue
ceeded in retaining virtually every
one Of the 2S5 liberalizing provisions
adopted by the upper house, which
comprise mostly administrative fea-
lures. The principal liberal" amend
ment Of the Senate permitting home
manufacture and consumption Of cider
and light wines was approved as we'll
as another Senate amendment extend
ing application Of the constitutional
amendment to the Panama Canal Zone
In this principal conference dispute
over imposition Of the burden Of
proof III prosecution, tie SENATE man
ayers were successful for the bill as
agreed on provides that the govern
mcnt must bear the burden of proof
that the profits case in prosecuting
those selling beverages by showing
that the beverages concerned contain
ed more than the alcoholic limit Of
one-half of one per cent. Manufac-
turers, however, as provided both by
the House and Senate bills. must bear
the burden Of proof that their pro-
ducts contained alcohol only within
the amount prescribed.
No change was made by the confer
ces in the provision which would al
low a man to have and consume in
his own home liquor acquired before
the law goes into effect.

GERMANY AS TT is NOW

The Common Folks are Nonchalant---Will Make Fair
Crops This Year.

after we had passed; but I never
caught any of these glanccs when
looked back.
"The common people Of Germany,
the women and children especially,
are beginning to hear stories Of the
horrible atrocities committed by their
troops in Belgium and in France, and
it is hard for them to believe the
stories that are coming back. l talked
much with nun in a convent near
which was stationed, a saintly lady
who asked much of me concerning the
Allies and the Americans, our people
back home and our homes. This God
ly woman too had heard Of the cruel
ties by the German boys and it wor-
ried her greatly. She often spoke to me
Of them and discussesd the matter
with me, expressing the belief always
that German lads could not be cap
able Of such crimes as had been charg-
ed to them. You may be sure didn't
do any white-washing.
"The German people are pretty shy
on meat right now although they have
at least enough potatoes and rye to
do them. Horsemeat is mighty good
eating for them now On one occasion
found 1t necessary to kill thirty-six
horses on account of ncurablc wounds
or disease. There was no other way
for it. I gave orders to my assistants
to dig trench, stand the horses be-
side the trench after it had been dug,
shoot the animals and roll them in.
One horse I recall, was suffering
from leg disease which caused great
sores and abscesses. shot the horse
and rolled 1t into trench. An old
woman was watching and as shoon as
tic morse was killed and before il was
covered up, the old soul came running
up with basket, asking that l allow
her to cut off some of the meat
gave orders to my men to cut hind
quarter off for her and this they did.
The last / saw Of the old woman was
when she has slicing that leg into
steaks, all smiling and happy while
she was doing it. A few sores meant
nothing. There is no question but
what even horse meat is at premium
in Germany just now.
mo matter what kind Of govern
ment they have it will be a long, long
time IL ever, in my opinion, before
those people forget their fear OF au-
thority or any semblance OF authority.
Every official in Germany from the
town burgomaster down to the game
warden wears a uniform. Let the
game warden walk down the street or
out into the country and there is such
a bowjng and scraping on every side
as you never saw. Kaiser Bill has GER
tainly planted the fear and respect of
any kind OF uniform or any authori-
ty into ordinary folks.
German military officers and the
higher ups generally realize that they
are licked AMI licked badly, however,
and the way they hate the Allies
great Scott! And they realize that
their own place in the sun has set
for while anyhow. This bunch !
guess IS nov going to have to go to
work since soldering isn't the high
and mighty calling that 1t once was in
Germany. ."-Torkville Enquirer.

No. 12 Hits Drove of Cattle.

Passenger train No. u, eastbound
last Thursday evening, struck a
drove OF cattle at private crossing
about two miles west OF town, kill
ing and crippling 35 head. The cat
tie belonged to Clark Mitchell of
Lamar and the accident was due
to the fact that some one hauling
hay had left the gate open on one
side of the railroad track while the
gate on the other side of the track
was closed. The cattle in the ad-
joining field crowded through the
open gate in great numbers and
started across to the opposite gate
which was closed. Finding the gate
closed the cattle punched on the
track in front of the approaching
train ard before it could come to a
standstill, struck the bunch of cat
tie with the above result.
