The Vices Chairman remarked: Hon
orabIe Members have heard the remarks
by the Government Secretary and the
Chairman of the Municipal Committee.
The matter is now open for discussion.
1st Member FOR Frederiksted Country
District (AnderSen) remarked: Mr.. Vice
Chairman. If we appropriate such a
large amount we should have ar entire
new line between both towns. If that
will be done, ] will vote in favor OF the
bill.
No tne requesting the word further,
it was put to the vote and unanimously
carried that LIST Discussion be closed.
1st Discussion closed.
Member BI1ckWood would like to know
if it is, necessary to put the matter
through to-day? Furthermore the Mem
Der said, In regard to the question rals-
ed by Member Andersen, he was told
by Mr.. Berg, Manager Of the Telepho !e,
that it is the intention to pnt l~neW
cables and make improvements on all
the lines, and there is no doubt that the
telephone system is going to be put IN
better working condition.
Government Secretary (Tt mons re
marked: Mr.. Vlce-Ch2irman. II view
of the point raised by Member Andersen,
Government suggests that End Discus
sion be left open until the next meeting
of the Council.
LIST Member for Frederiksted, Country
District ANDERSEN remarked: Mr.. Vice
chairman. This telephone system has
been very much criticised. Some say
thew can hear too much, and others too
little. If the Council a%ppropriates such
a large amou t of money we should
get something good for it. After the
hurricane, fifty thousand francs was
appropriated and nothing is known as
to how. that amount was spent. am
glad that Government has agreed to let
the matter rest until the rext meeting
of the Council.

EDITORIAL.

In reference to what a correspondents
writes elsewhere ir this issue, we DO
not find any laws f0c protection Of the
brute creation in the new code OF laws
and presume that whatever regulations
existed before are still operative. AS a
matter of fact very little attention ap-
pears to have been given to legislation
in this respect at any time, the chief &C
t~ivities, and mighty inactive they AVE
been, being society work which con
templated close investigation into the
treatment of animals of all kinds
with the object of bringing cases of
cruelty, neglect etc. to the notice II the
proper authority. The most these socie-
ties have done is, hold meetings and
award prizes to those having well-kept
animals, taking no trouble TO find out
the poor, underfed, and overWorked
brutes that would do No credit to their
owners religion. Much can be written
on the subject of cruelty to animals and
the protection our dumb comrades OF the
animal kingdom deserve, or, at least are
entitled to. We will return to this mat
ter in the near future and treat the Ques-
ton at length.
Apropos u remarks On regard, or ra-
Their The lack Of regard, for thed dumb
animals, it was our opportunity yester-
day morning to overhear a woman re
GREETING that she didn't have a bill in her
hand when some dog or other entered
her house tprobably to steaD.. The poor
canine would not have been enough for
the vengance she would have liked to
wreak. She wound up by saying the
next time the dog came within her do
main she would have & pot of boiling
water and give him that. This is but an
example Of the consideration held for
animals in general by a majority here.
And yet these same people will keep one
or often two or three dogs, and half
starve them so they are forced TO become
a nuisance to others who like themselves
are ever ready to demonstrate the sur
uiual Of the nrimitiNe s. wage IN them.

cloudy, full of sediments, channels

81 say, Miss Otis, won't you come
for a stroll in the corridor? It's
frightfully warm heah."
Il really prefer staying here. thank
you, Mr.. Sparkle, but you CO."
When he knew Artie had gone Fitz-
hugh walked over to say goodby.
But as he drew near she rose hur-
riedly and FASTENED toward the cur
tafns at the rear Of the box, leaving
him with her mother, who, with her
lorgnette to her eyes, was placidly
and studiously ignoring him. Kath-
leen vanished into the corridor, and,
turning, drew the curtains together so
that her face and neck and shoulders
were framed in the aperture. And for
a long moment her soft pansy eyes
gazed into his leaping black ones.
And the smile on her lips was heav-
enly. And the light in her eyes, afraid
yet glad, spoke with an eloquent
tongue.
Then the curtains fell together, and
he was alone with Mrs. Otis.

Healthy Paternalism

The world do move. Following is
the first paragraph of letter sent
by the director of the government
savings organization for the twelfth
federal reserve district to parents of
new born children:
"The government of the United
States is vitally interested in the fact
that you and your wife have been
blessed with the advent of child.
This government is the society of the
American people, and it is fitting that
it should be interested in it's new
members"
The letter goes on to ask parents
to assure the education of their chill
dren by buying war savings stamp
every week.

'Her daughter will be there?"
"Oh, yes, indeed. She was in the
room at the time. She'll be dreadfully
surprised, too"
mo doubt. Sparkle, you've got the
brain of a Napoleon. Going home?
Then I'll take you out in my car"
They left the Union league club to-
gether and entered Fitzhugh's new
90-horse power automobile glistening
at the curb.
The perennial favorite, ia Bo-
heme," was sung that evening. In
spite of Mrs. Otis (who had borne
Artie's surprise" with commendable
composure, sending only one terrify-
ing glance at that rash joker), Fitz-
hugh contrived to sit near Kathleen,
and by the time "Rodolfo" and "Mimi"
had chorused "Amors" he was subtly
making love to her, saying little by
word of mouth but speaking volumes
with eye and mien.
1t was near the end of act two, and
he did not know whether mimi" was
making merry with the Bohemians in
the Quarter Latin or dying Of starva-
ton in "Rodolfo's" attic, and he did
not know whether Mrs. Otis was
watching him or discussing with the
lady next her a corset display in
Michigan avenue, that his hand found
Kathleen's and smothered it In a
burning pressure.
Il have loved you," murmured he,
very close to her ear, ''for three years.

After while he spoke, very softly,

in spite of him, his voice trembled.
'Yes," she murmured, unclosing her
eyes. Still leaning against him, she
asked wistfully: "And are you very,
very happy?"
He held her close.
II never dreamed" said he, "that
any man could be so divinely happy,
least of all myself"
Presently she sat up, with start,
and removed his encircling arm.
"You must remember" she said

voice.

"Once," he mused, looking down at
her with the unutterable Joy Of posses

my egotism. I think, sometimes, I
have right to be egotistical."
Indeed, you have!" she exclaimed,
purposely misunderstanding him.

CHAPTER xI.

Thanks to the dexterity of his
French chauffeur, Fitzhugh was at
tacking his morning mail at twenty
minutes past ten. When running
through the fourth letter of the heap
his secretary had opened and laid out
for him he paused suddenly, then sat
violently back in his chair.
"Now, how in Hades," wondered he,
"could I forget that?"
He meant the first million. While
with Kathleen that morning the
thought of it had occurred and re-oc-
CURED to him, but always at inoppor-
tune moments, and when finally the
right time had arrived it slumbered in
the meshes Of his mind.
'Ill tell her on Wednesday," he con-
cluded; and promptly was swallowed
up in the rush of the days business.
The boy handed him a scrap of pa
per on which was written with a lead
pencil:
Il must see you at once.-Esther."
"Tell her I can't see her!' and he
crunched the paper between his fingers
and shot it angrily out an open win
dow. Before the lad reached the door
he checked him, less harshly, with:
Explain to her, Tommy, that am ex-
tremely busy, and ask her to call
again."
Dismissing the incident completely
from his mind, he gathered up the
sheaf Of letters. An alteration arose
in the outer Office The door was flung
open. Esther entered.
Seeing the stenographer, she held
the door open.
81 want to see you alone. Daniel"
said Esther quietly.
Fitzhugh motioned to his employees
to go, and closed the door after him.
well? What is it?" He remained
standing near the door, the sheaf of
letters clutched with an iron grip il
his right hand. He was striving hard
to control his mounting temper.
Unbidden, she sat down. He did not
