CHURCHES MAY
POOL COAL and
HOLD SERVICES
Some Churches Exhausted
Supplies Observation-Disclosures
Have Enough for One
Service Left.

Churches Of Omaha held morning
services only yesterday in accord
ance with the orders Of the terminals
coal committee for the conserva-
ton Of the rapidly dwindling sup
plies of coal.
In some of the churches the last
bit Of coal on hand was used to
supply heat for yesterdays services
and until the ban is lifted they can
hold no more meetings. Some con-
gregations expect to worship next
Sunday morning in the homes of
members.
Several big churches have only
enough coal to heat their edihces
for one more service. Among these
are the First Baptist and All Saints
Episcopal churches.
One More Service.
1--WE will hold no more services,
of course, until next Sunday morn
ing and we have just about enough
coal to heat the church then" said
Rev. A. A. DeLarme, pastor Of the
First Baptist church.
Rev. T. ]. Mackay, pastor OF All
Saints Episcopal church, was sick
Yesterday. having taken chill last
Friday. Rev. Carl Worden, assist
ant rector, conducted services. The
, Sunday school presented the pa
geant, Builders of the City OF God"
1--WE can have just one more serv-
ice which which will be next Sunday
morning" said Rev. Mr.. Worden.
! Yesterday was the first Sunday in
Advent, making the beginning of a
new church year. The bitter cold
did not diminish the size Of the con-
gregations present, the fact that no
! evening service was held helping to
bring large attendances in the morn
ing. Sunday schools. however, were
smaller than usual, due to the very
cold weather.
| May Pool Supplies.
Plans were discussed in some
churches for continuing some sort
of services if the coal ban should
remain on for a long period.
| Pooling OF the coal supplies Of
several church in each neighborhood
and the hold of union services in
one church was one plan that re-
ceived large support. This will be
done if the coal shortage continues
There are only very few churches
which have large supplies of coal
on hand, most of them being &C
customed to buy fuel in one to
three-ton lots.

What Mr.. Stockbridge's Note to
Madge Contained. N

II think you ought to- know" Mr..
Walters said gravely, taking an en-
velope from his pocket, that the
precautions with which Mr.. Stock
bridge is hedging the delivery OF this
message are almost entirely on your
own account. He is so afraid that
your name might be connected with
this terrible affair that he would not
send one OF his own attorneys to
you for fear that the visit might be
gossiped about.
"He gave me this note for you
nearly month ago, but cautioned
me not to deliver it until at least
three weeks had passed. Nor will
he permit me to return your answer
to him before a similar period of
time. He chose me because of your
friendship for Esther, thinking that
would minimize the chance OF Cos
sip"
The Smile Dies.
"He wishes an answer them" /
tried not to ,show that l was dis
mayed at the prospect of writing to
Kenneth Stockbridge.
Mr.. Walters shot keen glance at
me.
~ think it is verbal answer only
that he requires" he said stiffly," al
though l have no mixing OF the con-
tents of this letter"
He held the letter out to me
soberly, the boyish look and smile
entirely vanished from his face. l
felt that he had read correctly my
doubt of my former principal, and
my Discrimination to be involved in
his affairs and that he was gravely
Disappearing of my attitude.
But the approval or disapproval OF
this boyish brother of my young
pupil meant little to me. All my at
tention was absorbed by the en-
velope which he held out to me, the
envelope which I could not doubt
held a message of vital moment to
the imprisoned man in the county
Jail.
I took the envelope mechanically,
spoke in stereotyped fashion before
sitting the envelope:
you will pardon me"
"Assuredly," he returned as COM
ventioally, and then for a few mo-
ments l was lost to my surroundings
in reading the strange message
which Kenneth Stockbridge had
sent to me.

''Revelations of Wife

Mrs. Graham" and then broke al
most incoherently into apologies.
Il wish l dared say dear friend"
the letter ran, but I am uncertain
how you look upon the most awful
business of which I am accused.
You may believe all against me, and
if you do you will wish to read no
more than is absolutely necessary of
this screed. If, on the contrary, you
believe me innocent, which I am
afraid to hope, I know your kind
ness Of heart sufficiently to realize
that you could not do enough in
my defense. -
+ "But one thing can count on as
l can on my own soul. and that is
steadfastness Of purpose and your
loyalty to your friends. For these
reasons l am going to ask of you
a very great service.
A Startling Request
"You remember | asked you to
take my private papers from my
desk and keep them until l should
be ready to send for them. My
friend, am afraid that time will
never come. The tolls seem to be
Tightening around me, and l can
see nothing in front of me but an ig-
nominious death, or at best a long
Imprisonment. / also asked you in
the event of my death to turn the
papers to Miss Holcombe. l now
rescind that last request. 1t could
only humiliate her beyond reason
to read those things after the re-
voting death which / must face. So
there is but one thing to do.
will you keep them until my con-
viction, of which l am afraid there
is not the slightest doubt, and then
destroy them utterly? And please,
if possible, never let Miss Holcombe
know that you had them. It might
hurt her to think that I confded in
you, a comparative newcomer, in
stead of in so old and tried friend
as herself
Another thing. As never al
lowed myself to send or to receive
any word from you / never have re-
ccived an answer to the question l
put upon that awful afternoon. Did
you find the secret drawer in my
desk? If so, did you take its con-
tents as l asked?
"You see, have asked three ques-
tions, which l wish you would an
swer by number to Mr.. Arthur Wal
tiers, who will deliver this. l do not
wish Won to write your reply for
obvious reasons.
No. Eyes or no)-Did you find
the secret drawer?
No. 2 Eyes or no)-Did you take
its contents?
No. 5 Eyes or no)-In the event of
my conviction will you destroy the
papers you found in the open
drawer? -..
Zone more caution I must leave
with you. Please do not think it ar,
idle one. Destroy at once all the
packets of tea that you have like
the ones you gave Milly when she
lunched with the teachers that day
at school. Begin to use another
brand and use it publicly whenever
possible, that people may think it
has always been your choice"
The words danced before me so
that could scarcely distinguish
them.
The tea!
What in the world could this far
rago about my brand of tea mean!
