CHAPTER XXI.
A Visit to MaIdonado.

Mrs. Hardins descent on the office
that afternoon was successful, but not
satisfactory. She had found the man.
ager brief to curtness. She was given
no excuse to linger. She traced Rick
ards manner to the presence OF Mac
Lean, and snatched at her cue. She,
too, could be businesslike and brief.
Her errand was of business; her man
ner should recommend her!
Richard had seen her making
straight toward the ramada. It was
not the first time; her efforts to line
| her nest had involved them all and
often. But today, he was in bad
humor.
"For the Lords sake" he groaned
| to MacLean as she approached.
MacLean's grin covered relief. He had
never heard Richard express himself
on the subject before. ''The dead-set
Hardin's wife was making at Casey"
was the choice gossip and speculation
Of the young engineers on the Delta.
MacLean had bet up on the outcome.
He grinned more securely.
II am not going to spare any more
carpenters" growled Richard. 1t was
an inauspicious day for Mrs. Hardin's
visit Things had gone wrong. Vex-
atoms were piling up. A tilt with Har-
| din that morning, telegram from
Marshall; he was feeling sore. Des-
perately they needed labor. Wooster
had just reported, venomously, 1t ap-
peared to Richards spleen, increasing
drunkenness among the Indians.
| Gerty's ruffies swept in. Her dress,
| the blue null with the lace medallions,
accented the hue of her eyes, and
looked deliciously cool that glaring
desert day. Her parasol, 2f pongee,
was lined with the same baby hue.
Her dainty fairness and childish af-
liability should have made an oasis in
that strenuous day, but Richards dis
indignation of temper was too COM
plete. He rose stiffly to meet her, and
his manner demanded her errand.
| She told it to him, plaintively. Her
eyes were appealing, infantile. Would
it be too much to ask, would Mr..
| Richard mind in the least, he must be
perfectly frank and tell her if they
would be in the way at all, but while
this hot spell lasted, could they. the
three of them, eat in the mess tent
| with the men?
"Surelyp Richard met it heartily.
She would find it rough, but If she
could stand 1t, yes, he thought it a
good idea.
And then there was nothing for her
to do but go. Her retreat was grace
full, without haste, dignified. She
smiled a farewell at MacLean, who
was watching the approach Of Innes
Hardin and Estrada. Richard did not
see the aborted entrance of Hardin's
sister and the young Mexican. He
was itching to be at his work.
He let out growl when Mrs. Har-
din was out of earshot.
"Shucks! What in Halifax do wom-
en- come to place like this for!
There's Hardin-brings in two women
to cook for him, and now, please may
they all eat with the menY
His secretary subdued a chuckle.
He was visualizing procession of

boxes of choice Havanas-from Bode-
feldt, Hamlin and the rest OF the
gang. He need not buy smoke for
q year.
Richard threw himself back in his
chair. "Take this letter, MacLean. To
Marshall" Then his worry diverted
him. 'Who In thunder Is selling liquor
to my IndiansT
Hold on; that letter can wait. You

Nd REAL CLUE
To BIC ROBBERY
Keasbey Man Afraid Of Banks
and is Robbed
BIZ Special Correspondent.

KEASBEY, Nov. 25.-The Wood
bridge Police officials are today still
looking for a clue to the $500 rob-
berry which occurred here possibly be-
tween Saturday night and Sunday.
Several persons are being held but the
charges of the theft have not been
pressed against them.
John Gulyas, sixty years old, an m
ploye of the National Ffreproofing
Company, is the victim.
Gulyas, together with several other
men, has been boarding with Mrs.
Kostyu, near the Keasbey Loop, for
the past Several months. He had his
well saved earnings, $500, concealed
in a small trunk, which was locked
with a common lock and could be
easily opened.
While looking for some papers Sun
day afternoon, Gulyas, unlocked his
trunk and discovered his money had
disappeared. The contents Of the
trunk were slightly disarranged and
showed signs of someone having been
meddling with Gulyas's belongings.
The guilty person evidently had a key
to the lock, which was a common
one and could be opened with ease.
The matter vas reported to officer
John Cholar, Of the Woodbridge po-
lice force and IN investigation was
started.
Gulyas stated that his fellow board
ers were aware Of the fact that he
had the money concealed In his
| trunk.
When questioned why he kept the
| large sum of money at home, Gulyas
stated that some years ago he lost
$500 when the banking concern OF
Emil Sameth, went into Bankruptcy
and had since been afraid to invest
his money in a bank.
Several of the boarders who lived
with Gulyas are being held by the po-
lice officials, but Gulyas says he will
not press any charges against them.
The Woodbridge police officials
| have as yet not found any clue to the
robbery of Simon S~choenbrun's store
| last week. Schoenbrun reports the
loss of $500 worth of merchandise.

The Hunt for Hurricanes.

From the New York Herald.
One of the most important govern
ment activities interrupted during the
war was the weather work in the
tropics 1t is reassuring to learn that its
meteorological service in Caribbean and
West Indian waters, which was much
disturbed. is being rapidly rehabilitated
by the return of men OF the weather ,'er
bureau who have been doing valuable
things for the Army in France. Our all
but abandoned southern stations are
now being inspected, renamed and put
in condition to give the earliest possible
warnings Of danger from the region in
which our most destructive summer
storms originate. 1t is none too soon
that this is done. The hurricane season
frequently begins in the early part OF
June.
Tropical weather work takes on spe-
cial interest this year because of the &C
QUESTION of the Virgin Islands by the
United States, the development of our
merchant marine and increase of our
commerce with the countries Of Latin
America. The weather bureau already
has fifteen stations. mostly on foreign
islands in the Caribbean sea, which
furnish the hurricane service by giving
word Of dangerous air conditions there
and over the Gulf of Mexico. To these
points of observation will be added, this
season. a special meteorological station
miles south Of Tampa. This new station
is admirably located and should prove
of great value in detecting 1.-The max
ings' of the terrific blows which, some
times after days of terminating, grow
into the hurricanes that spell wreck fol-
shipping and loss of life at sea as well
as over considerable areas ashore.

Elephants. Peanuts and Bolshevists
From the New York Herald.


Some one suggests that the four ele-
plants which recently escaped from
captivity at Marblehead, Mass, and
later We're captured by their keepers by
the deXterous use of peanuts and bana-
mas are like the bolshevists. who have
moments Of wildness and think freedom
is ;all they want They can be tanned
by peanuts and bananas. it is suggested,
just as the elephants can be tanned.
Can they? Unless all signs fail and
all experience has been for nought, mere
peanuts and bananas. or for that matter
food. will not cure bolshevism. 1t is a
disease OF the mind. not Of the body
although the latter doubtless follows
i from the first. Bolshevsm cannot be
cured by food alone; it must burn itself
out and fall in its own ruins before the
law OF common sense and the majesty Of
national authority ere it realizes it's
madness and folly.
This is not the first time in history
that bolshevism has appeared. Centuries
ago. when Rome was beginning to be
great, the plebeinS met on hill outside
the imperial city and complained to the
consuls that they were hungry. Where
I upon the consulS fed the multitude They
were pacified for time but broke out
all the wealth and property of Rome di-
vided among themselves. and it required
the force of authority to bring them to
terms.
The elephants ate peanuts and bana-
mas. but were ready to break loose again
So it is with bolshevists. Neither pea
nuts nor bananas, nor corn or other food,
will cure their mental strabismus Only
time and inevitable consequences can
cure such disease
