My love for Crittenden then and there became mightier thing, grew into possion that was all-compell- ing, that enveloped all, that gave all. And this were a thing worth all it had cost and more, for it remained the while everything else was oblit- erated.
 Vaguely in our consciousness sounded chimes. Then we realized it was the clock in the hallway down. stairs. It struck. We counted the strokes-five! The night had passed.
 I looked at Crittenden in surprise. He smiled back at me.
 "We won't go home until morn ing" he quoted, happily.
 Then later the dawn, and it was beautiful, the dawn of Thanksgiving. We witnessed it together, joyously, with our happy faces turned toward the birth of such a day as this.
 Suddenly Crittenden looked up at me, grinning in good humor, and I knew it was something in jest he would say. I sensed, too, that it would be something at his own ex- pense for he had learned generosity.
 smiled down at him. and waited
 "Bess," he said, "you asked me a question last night. You wanted to know what thought of Betty Lang ley. I think she is wonderful, wonderful girl. But you, Bess," he whispered, earnestly, "are the most wonderful girl in all the world!"
 He had more than answered my question.

Washington, D. C., Feb. 6.-Sen- ator Hiram Johnson of California announced his determination to fight for delegates to the republican na' tional convention from the Easterr
 tates. He will make an especially vigorous fight in New Jersey, where 28 delegates will be chosen at the presidential preference primary ot April 27.
 Senator Johnson announced the se- lection of Angus McSween, for many years Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia North American, as director of the Johnson fight in the East.
 "Mr. McSween at once will open his headquarters in New York, from which will be directed contests now under way in many of the Eastern states," said Senator Johnson. "This move has become necessary because the fight has got far beyond my per. sonal supervision. Wherever there lis an opportunity to obtain decision by the people, there we will have a fight for the Republican delegates"

 I started up in terror, as wild white face was thrust out from the bushes. Whether man or woman maniac or ficnd, couldn't tell. But my very blood ran cold
 Then, just as suddenly as it had come, that wild face disappeared And I---trembling in every limb clutched tight to Jim. It seemed like an eternity-al thou it couldn't have been more thar ten minutes--before the reassuring chug- -chug of motor car came dowr the road and the kindly tones oi Travis Lloyd fell on my strained ears.
 "Here we are at last! This way men! Doctor, here's your patient!' The glaring headlights of the car il luminated Jim and me more power fully than did the moon.
 He led them over to us, and tht doctor knelt down by the roadside and made quick examination O poor Jim.
 "A blow to his head Concussioi probably severe. Considerable los of blood. Exhaustion. No bone broken"
 1 The doctor rose to his feet, an' motioned to Travis Lloyd's two ser wants.
 Lift him into the car" He plac led supporting arm below Jim head. "Gently there! Careful There, that's right" He turned t Travis Lloyd. "Drive to the neares house Lodge your owl place is too far off by the road. Thi fellow must be got to, bed at once!

 Jim's hand began to grope, much as a frightened little boys. I caught it in my own and held it close. His fingers frightened round my hand. His moaning stopped. In some mi raculous way my touch had soothed him.
 "He's mine-all mine," I told my self repeatedly. The wretched affair with Alice Anstruther had only been a nightmare! Jim hadn't really cared <. for her-the empty -headed little yampire! Alice had only cast a temporary spell, Jim would come back to me, his wife!
 Alice's insipidsty could never hold a man. Much less man of my Jim's calibre! Jim was so clever witty, sensible. And Alice hadn't got a thing to recommend her ex- cept her doll-like prettiness.

 The cash register which had money In it was not ditsurbed, nor was the safe. except to have the metal caps on the hinges unscreWed and starewn on the floor.
 The man got away without being seen and 1ea no clue, but there are circumstances that indicate he was well acquainted with premises and that he is an amateur at the game and merely a petty thief.
 As the burglary was committed all so between i and 1.S0 o'clock, which is the time when the policeman cover ing this beat. Officer D. J. O'Neil, is at police headquarters for his lunch time, it is sthpught the burglar had ealcu- lated on the time when he would run the least chance of interruption at his work.
 MT. Morfissey had retired late and had not yet gone to sleep when he heard the saand of footsteps crunch tng on the snow in the yard Slipping on a bath robe and slippers he went downstairs to the back door into the yard and heard the intruder make a rush to get to the street. As MT. Nor
