 Here was my opportunity. German had utterly refused to credit my story of secret passage and had ridiculed it. There had been no way that 1 could prove it, nor was it possible for German to have investigated the walls of the Granddeck, even if he had placed any credence in my story.

 Two small rays of sunshine light ened the gloom of my cell-the fact that the newspaper mention of the tragedy seemed thus far to have es- capped my mothers notice and the fact that Barbara still believed in my innocence and trusted me absolutely A day two after my arrest German had managed to see her and had told her that it was my wish that she keep entirely quiet her knowledge of the affair and that she should make no attempt whatever to communicate with me while I was i.l prison He

 had brought back with him hastily penciled note which often in my cell read and re-read:
 Dear Mir. Nelson:
 ''I'm so sorry to hear of your trou- ble and the absurd charges against you. I'll do whatever you wish, of course. trust you absolutely. If anything can tell will aid you at any time, am ready to speak--cost what it may. know you are innocent and must soon be freed. Hoping to see you,
 "With all confidence,
 "B. B."
 Each time read anew the penciled lines, my heart rejoiced. Come what may, felt sure that Barbara's heart was mine jOyed to know that come out of prison to her though I migM. she would be glad to see me. Joyful ly would I have gone to the electric chair rather than have her fair name in the least smIrched by scandal in trying to defend me. She alone could prove an alibi for me, but no one must ever know it.
 What would scandal-loving world say if the fact became public that she had been alone with me in 'my apartment near midnight? If only by the sacrifice of her good name could I go free, then let me stay in my cell. Let me even go to the electric chair. I would not have my life at the loss of my beloved's reputation.
 One other thing had kept from my lawyer-my discovery of the passage way between the walls in my great uncle's apartment. If I could not get German to believe in this secret pass age, which I was convinced had some connection with the mysteries and the whisperings at the Granddeck, there was little likelihood that McGregOr would believe my tale either. Given one single hour in my quarters at the Granddeck and I would have discOv- cred whither it led and who used 1t,

 "Who?" I questioned eagerly. Could it, wondered, be Barbara? Had my sternly repressed longing to see her in some way communicated itself to her through the ether and impelled her to throw caution to the winds and come to the prison to see me!

 A man. Who could it be? In all the mOnOtOnOus time l had bee. be- hind the bars. only two men had come to see me, German and McGregor.

Power Company Buys Interstate
p0Wer C0mDany

The Milbank Power company be-
came the owners of the Interstate
Electric Light and Power Company
when a deal was completed last
week. The Interstate company
furnished power and lights for Re.
vi!lo, Marietta, A!bee and Nassau,
the plant being located at Mari
eta.
The plans of the local company
are to extend a line from here thru
the extention now being used to
the granite quarries east Of the
city to Albee. From Albee the
present lines will be used if pos
sible, or new ones made. The
plant at Nassau will be dismantled
and all Of the power made at this
city. The work Of extending the
lines will probably take about two
months.
The electric light plant in this
city is one of the best equipped in
a city of this size and will be able
to furnish power for all of the
towns and villages on this line. A
new $50 horse power engine is be-
ing installed, for which the found
alton is just completed. A new
engine of the same type was in
stalled during the past winter,
which makes the total capacity of
the plant $50 horse power. This
is adequate not only to supply the
present needs but also for some
time in the future.
