Washington, Sept. 15.-The Ger
nan peace treaty, with It's league of
nations covenant, was called up to-
lay IN the senate, bat plans of the
senate and individual senators were
considered as preclui rg any actual
work en- the pact until next week.
While the treaty was put before the
senate to be considered in open SEES
sion continuously until ratified or re-
jected, there apparently was no dis
position to speed it along after the
interruption of business by the Per-
hing ceremonies Wednesday, and
Thursday. Senator Sherman, repu6-
lean, Of Illinois, will take up most Of
he time Of the session tomorrow with
IN attack en- the league covenant and
Senator Reed, democrat, Of Missouri,
who has been speaking in The west
against it, will speak Friday
The reading of the treaty, section
by section, hardly is expected there
fore to begin until Monday. The
league covenant comes first, and right
at the beginning almost is the amend
ment by Senator johnson, republican,
Of California, which would give The
United States the same voting power
as Great Britain.
How much time the senate would
take in considering this amendment
members today declined to say, al
though the general view YVES that
nearly every one on the republican
side might want to express opinions
regarding it. It was suggested that
Senator Johnson, who is on a speak /.
ing tour, might return in time to
take personal charge Of The fight to
equaiize the voting clause.
After Chairman Lodge had form
ally called up the treaty today he pre-
sented a printed text of the treaty
with Austria, supplied him by CHI
cago newspaper and obtained unani-
nous consent to have it read word for
word. Senator Hitchcock, of Ne
hraska, who as ranking democratic
of the committee, will con-
lCct the administration for ratifca-
ion, made vigorous objection to this I
procedure, declaring it "a mere squan- 6
lering Of time" t
To have that treaty read, with a i
Iozen senators listening, would be t
lying in the face of public demand 8
or speed, Senator Hitchcock said in a
ppealing to Senator Lodge to have a
he document printed and let it go at il
hat. This Senator Ledge agreed to O
0, saying he was prepared to ask y
ave to print the treaty before Sen p
tor Hitchcock had spoken, realizing 81
rat it would require more than day W
, finish the reading. il
There were two speeches today for el
ltifcation, by Senator jones, of New
exico. and Senator OverInan, of 4
orth Carolina, both democrats. Sen '~
Or McCumber, Of North Dakota, a r
publican member of the foreign re- =
items committee, who refused tc T.
IN the majority report against the
eaty, filed on individual report op-
sing all amendments and urging
of drastic reservations.
When the senate begins real work =,
the treaty it will be taken up every >.
y at 2 o'clock It's consideration 80
mot be set aside to take up other J (

apartment building halfway down
the block. The entrance door will
be unlocked, and you walk up the
stairs-don't take the elevator~-un-
til you reach the third floor. There
is a corner there, where the stair
way turns, that you can't miss see

tically safe from observation-until
you hear me speak your name
Then bring your lad up. If any
body questions you. flash your po-
lice card or give 'em any stall you
can get away with"
"I'll manage" The mans voice
was full Of quiet self-confidence
"All right then. So long" Mr..
Drake returned, and we turned the
corner and walked to the door of
the tall apartment building which
bore the number 237.
1t was rather a forbidding look
ing place, but its interior had an at
tempt at ornateness, and there was
the usual combination elevator boy
and telephone operator sprawled at
his ease before a switchboard
He sprang up with alacrity, how
ever, when he caught sight of Mr..
Drake. From his manner I deduced
that the two had seen each other
before.
Take us up to the third floor
directly" Mr.. Drake commanded,
and remember what l told you
about that entrance door" /.

The Quest Begins.

Don't be frightened, Mrs. Graham,
we are going to stop in the middle
of this block and walk the rest of
the way. The house is in the next
block"
Allen brakes voice was solicit
orssly kind, but resented the pro-
tectively patronizing air with which
he spoke 1t was the manner a
man would adopt toward an old
woman, an extremely young one or
one totally inexperienced in worldly
ways.
Surely, I said to myself hotly, I
had not acquitted myself SO badly
in the piece OF his work with which
| had been associated during the
war that he should make SO little of
my worldly wisdom now. At that
time he had praised the work upon
the important mysterious code
which | had done, although l sus
pected that he had done so grudg
ingly, and that he had been COM
PEELED to admiration because of the
remarkable memory which some
freak of nature supplemented by
my little mothers training, had
given me.
But before I left Lillian's had
resolved to emulate the well-known
oyster in the matter OF expressing
either opinions or emotion, SO | con-
fined my response to a laconlc SEN
tence. 49,.
II am not frightened" l said in
differently.
"This Way!"
"That's good" Mr.. Drake was
equally casual. He had already
given the signal to the taxi driver,
and the man drew up the car at
the curb in front of dark building.
In fact, the whole block was but
dimly lighted, and as Mr.. Drake as
sisted Lillian and me out of the
taxicab the whole atmosphere of the
locality seemed reeking with mys-
tery-a fit setting for any sort of
melodrama.
"Wait here for u.s." Mr.. Drake
directed the driver. I'VE may be IS
minutes, we may be great deal
longer, but I want to find you right
here when we get back. No scout
ing around the corner for you"
"All right, boss,9 the man re-
Joined, good-naturedly, but l won
dered if he did not inwardly resent
Mr.. brakes rather cavalier manner.
My irritation at Mr.. brakes air
was fast becoming an obsession, one
which troubled me guilty, for |
could not forget that his very pres
ence with us meant that he had ex-
pended valuable time and skill in
nv service, was continuing to give
both. l suppose the nervous ten
sion under which | was laboring
was partly responsible for my cap
tiousness, but the fact remained that
l was rapidly reaching a point where
l feared might openly betray my
feeling.
This way!" Mr.. Drake put
guiding hand on Lillian's arm, an
other on mine, and we walked in
silence down the street to the cor
| ner.
Into the House.
| As we reached it Mr.. Drake
turned abruptly toward a jutting
doorway of deserted office build
ing, where l saw two men standing,
the one farthest away from us,
furtive, Sinking figure, whom / in
stinctively would have feared if |
had met him alone.
The other man, whose type 1 had
seen frequently when l was assist
ing Lillian in the secret service
work, stepped out into the street
as Mr.. Drake turned toward him.
"All right, Watkins?" Mr.. Drake
asked in a low tone.
Everything o. K, sir" the man
replied.

Amelia E. Barr. Novelist.

Despite the fact that the late
Amelia f. Barr left all estate OF
but a few hundred dollars, she is
known to have earned a large
amount of money with her pen. Few
American novelists, in fact. have
met with greater success from a
financial viewpoint than did Mrs.
Barr. During her long and active
career she wrote a total of nearly
100 novels. While no one of them
created a literary sensation, all of
them met with a fair measure of
success and their sale yielded the
author steady and substantial in
come during period of many years.
The first woman pastor to be IL
censed in New Brunswick is Miss
Esther l. Clark, a graduate of AGA
dia university, who has accepted the
offer of the United Baptist congre-
cation at Grangevile to become
pastor of their church.
