A. S. Coody. who held proxies in
the meeting. introduced resolu-
ktion asking w. ]. Bryan to address
the State Convention, but this was
voted down by the adoption Of q
substitute offered by s. L. McLau-
rim, which leaves the invitation Of
speakers in the hands Of the con-
vention itself.
A request from the Mississippi
League of Women Voters to be al
lowed to participate in the elec-
tions was rejected on the ground
that the committee was without
legal authority to act in the mat
ter. The committee, however, a.
dopteed a resolution Of regret
that the women cannot vote.
The fight of the day came on q
resolution by Calvin Wells Of
Jackson, endorsing the admins
tration of President Wilson. A.
| S. Coody, T. w. Boggan and w. A.
Williamson opposed the adoption
though admitting that President
Wilson, was q great man; one or

every act and declined to be read

tion," said Terrence sharply, "that
you are not the widow of the late
Raymond B. BaShfOrd !"
"That statement" said Alice without
ceasing the languid flutter of the fan,
as cOrrect-quite correct"
"Certainly. 1t is entirely true"
affirmed Mrs. FarnswOrth.
"And your coming here as you did
is, if you will pardon my frankness,
susceptible of very disagreeable con-
structiOns. 1t is my painful duty"
He choked upon his duty until Ray
nor spoke smiling broadly.
II find my duty really privilege"
he said. mot only are you not Mrs.
BashfOrd," he went on with the ut
most good humor, 'but you are a very
different person. l should explain
that | represent the American state
department, and that our government
has been asked by the British embassy
to find you and deliver a certain
message to you"
ooh, papa wants me to come home"
cried Alice ITS droll, Constance,
that papa should have thought of
making an affair of state of us. Dear
papa will always indulge me just so
far, and then he becomes alarmed"
Hes certainly alarmed now"
laughed Raynor. "But the ambassa-
dor has warned us to be most tactful
and circumspect. You may not know
that Sir Arnold Seabring is on his
way to this country on a confidential
mission. That, of course is not for
publication"
"Sir Arnold Seabring?" gasped Tor
renee.
"The father of the Honorable Miss
Seabrng," replied RaynOr with an
calculating nod toward Alice.
But how" I began.
"Mrs. Bashford, the widow of your
uncle, is the Honorable Miss Seabring's
aunt. Is that quite correct"
at is all true" said Alice. 81 am
a fraud, an impOstOr. You might go
on and say that Mrs. FarnsWorth is
the wife Of Sir Cecil Arrowsmith.
But all the guilt is mine. 1t was my
idea to come here and play a little,
because knew Aunt Alice wouldn't
mind. She knew just what | meant
to do; really she did, Mr.. Terrence
In fact, have her written permission
to use the house; which | should
have shown you if we had got in a
pinch. But it seemed so much more
fun just to let matters take their
course. It's q pet theory of mine that
life is a dull affair unless we trust
to luck a little. After my brothers
death I was very unhappy and had
gone out East to visit Aunt Alice,
who is a great rOamer. | thought it
would be nice to stop here on the way
home, just for lark, without telling
papa, who was frantically cabling me
to hurry back to England. This isn't
the first time I've played hide-and-seek
with my family. I was always doing
that as a child; and if it hadn't been
for nv general waywardness l should
never have known you, Constance.
Why. shouldn't have known you.
gentlemen 1t has all been SO de-
lightful!"
This naive confession amused
Raynor greatly, but Terrence was
seeing nothing in it but a dangerous
escapade.
"In the name of the Bainbr'dge
