rhing, Mr.. Barnes-something a long
shot bigger than any of US suspects" ;"
you'll find that it resolves itself
into a problem for Washington to
solve" said De Soto darkly. Nothing
local about it, taRe my word for it.
These men were up to some interna-
tional devilment. There1l be stir in
washington over this, sure as any
thing"
"What time was it that you heard
the shots up at Green Fancy?" ven
tured Barnes.
Lord love you," cried O'Dowd, 1--WE
didn't hear sound. Mr.. Curtis, who
has insomnia the worst way, poor
devil, heard them and sent some one
out to see what all the racket was
about. The man, it seems, made such
devil of a racket when he came
home with the news that the whole
house was up in pajamas and peig-
noirs."
Il think have slight acquaintance
with the chauffeur" said Barnes. "He
gave me the most thrilling motor ride
I've ever experienced. Cad, I'll never
forget it,"
The two men looked at him, plainly
perplexed.
''When was all this? inquired De
Soto.
s'Early last evening. He picked up
your latest guest at the corners, and
she insisted in his driving me to the
tavern before the storm broke. I've
been terribly anxious about her. She
must have been caught out in all that
frightful-"
"What's this you are saying, Mr..
Barnes?" cut in De Soto, frowning.
mo guest arrived at Green Fancy last
evening, nor was one expected"
Barnes stared. do you mean to
say that she didn't get there, after
all?"
"She? A woman, was it?" demand
ed O'Dowd. ."Bedad, if she said she
was coming to Green Fancy she was
spoofing you. Are you sure it was old
Peter who gave you that jolly ride?'
'No, 1 am not sure" said Barnes
uneasily. "She was afoot, having
walked from the station below. I met
her at the corners and she asked me if
knew how far it was to Green
Fancy, or something like that. Said
she was going there. Then along came
the automobile, rafting down this
very road-an ancient Panhard driven
by an old codger. She seemed to think
it was all right to hop in and trust
herself to him, although she'd never
seen him before"
'The antique Panhard fits in all
right" said O'Dowd, ''but I'm hanged
if the woman fits at all. No such per-
son arrived at Green Fancy last night" !"
"Did you get a square look at the
drivers face?" demanded De Soto.
sit was almost too dark to see, but
he was old, hatchet-faced, and spoke
with an accent"
"Then it couldn't have been Peter" !"
said De Soto positively. "He's old,
right enough. but he is as big as the
side of house, with a face like full
moon, and he is Yankee to his toes.
By CAD, Barnes, the plot thickensl A
woman has been added to the mystery.
Now, who the devil is she and what
has become of herr"

Mr.. Rushcroft was furious when he

after the double murder, having slept
like a top through all of the commo-

ADDRESS OF PRESIDENT
TO MEMBERS OF THE
ARIZONA FEDERATION


Following is the address of the presi-
dent, Mrs. Lynn R. Carter, which she
delivered to the members of the Fed
Grafton at the meeting held in this
city. Her address in full was as fol.
ITO Officers, Delegates, Members, Wis
itors of the Arizona Federation CT
Colored Women's clubs.
Time our pitiless master, ever
drives his tireless steeds in their un-
Tagging flight
"The minutes and hours speed by in
never ending succession, and almost
imperceptibly the present becomes the
past, the morrow yesterday. Ere we
realize it, our task is done, our du-
ties over, and the temporary moment
of rest here. And so today we find
another year lies buried in the past
year as years have been and as
years will be, of joy and sorrow and
sunshine and cloucs.
Again your president resigns into
tHOoC uduOS NHlCu COlilClItQ II, AilN
high authority of her office.
In these days of rush and hurry
and go, women are inclined to give
but little thought to the things that
are behind, only looking forward and
pressing forward to the things that
are before; but upon the birth of a
new division OF time, retrospection is
pardonable-and l might say, ineyi-
table, and we of. the Arizona FEEDER
alton, looking backward over the year
just ending, find record of good
works and good deeds.
1--WE have helped our country by
buying Liberty Bonds, worked in Red
Cross campaigns for mercy, sewed for
helpless Belgiums and chief among
them all, we did not forget our poor
and needy here at home in our char
ity work.
During this fiscal year, we insti-
tuted club at Mesa City, Arizona
known as The Glee Club
Though the clubs have been handi-
capped by the great influenza epidem-
ic, they have fought their way brave
ly-showing greater strength fnan-
cialIy and in membership.
1--WE have tried to interest the
women of our race in this great up
lift work throughout the State OF
Arizona
"Three years ago we started build
ing fund and in the near future we
hope to see our hopes realized. Again
will mention the fact that we were
handicapped in our progress with our
building fund as many of us made
sacrifice to purchase Liberty bonds,
Baby bonds and War Savings Stamps,
and endeavored to answer every other
call of our country--that victory might
be ours in the end Our motto Row
ing, not drifting was upheld.
"The success of the Federation, the
highest development of our organiza-
ton is not dependent alone upon the
body, but upon the individuals.
81 can truthfully say the Arizona
Federation of Colored Women's clubs
know no act of retrogression.
"To every member of the Executive
Board, l extend my sincere thanks for
their hearty cooperation and support
during the year.
"In conclusion, tender my heart
i felt thanks to every president, officer
and member of the Federation clubs
for the friendship and excellent aid
given me in our every effort for the
advancement of the organization.
"The Past has had its readlng; the
Present has it's writing; the Future
has its hope"

PLAGUE MADE DIRE RECORD
Reasonable Grounds for Estimating
That Influenza Has Cost the Lives
Of Six Million Persons.

Though estimates of deaths over the
whole world from any single epidemic
are very difficult to form, there seem
to be reasonable grounds for believing
that some 6,O00000 persons have per-
iShed of Influenza and pneumonia dur
ing the last comparatively few weeks.
business has been interfered With Ivy
the epidemic in every country in the
world, and enormous losses both in
earning power and in trade have been
suffered. The cost OF the "inluenza
war" cannot be reckoned, but that Il is
colossal does not admit OF doubt.
This plague, then, generally regarded
with cquanimity, Is, it would seem, FIVE
times more deadly than war. il has
been estimated that the war caused the
death of 2o.000000 persons in four and
one-half years. writes a physician in
the London Times. In the same Pc
Rod at its epidemic rate influenza
would have killed 10S,000.000. The
visits of the raidlng Gothas to Lon
don were but as summer shower
compared with the delugo of germs
which we have just received. The air
raids cost London some hundreds of
lives; the Influenza has cost it up
wards of 10000.
Never since the black death has such
plague swept over the face OF the
world; never, perhaps, has a plague
been more stoically accepted. In In
dla alone over 100000 deaths oc-
CURED. Bombay had $4,000 Of these
Delhi, with population of 100000, had
500 deaths n day. The Punjab lost
100000 persons. South Africa suffered
no less severely. In Cape Town 2,op
children were left destitute as re-
suit of the disease, while the plague
swept through the native areas lik,

Eew Presidents Rich.

The Roosevelt fortune was different.
moreover. in being mainly an inherited
fortune. It's pOsseSsor may have added
TO 1t in his lifetime. but, as in the
case of other presidents, most OF his
personal earnings in a period Of forty
years OF public life were absorbed in
the support OF his family. No other
president has ever enjoyed such adj
vantages Of remunerative publicity as
Mr. Roosevelt, and besides his salary
from official positions his income from
his books and from editorial work
must have been large. Yet It Is n
fair inference that IL these had been
the sole sources Of his support he
would have died poor man, as Clcve-
land did, and most OF their predeces-
sors in the White House.
This has been the common financial
fate of presidents, and the example
Of Mr.. Roosevelt probably merely

ident is not economically productive in
any logical proportion 10 its exalted
state and onerous political Qualilica-
tiOns.
