CHAPTER VIII.

Webster's trunk went aboard the steamer early the following morning. and at noon he entered a taxi with his hand baggage and was driven to the ie.ee where La Estrellita lay tugging gently at her mooring lines. Owing to he congestion of freight and traffic the chauffeur stopped his cab little dis tance from the gangplank, where Webster discharged him with liberal tip.
 The latter, however, swung his passengers bag and suitcase to the for the gangplank.
 "Never mind my baggage, lad" Webster called after him. One of the deck boys will care for it."
 The chauffeur turned. You've been generous with me, sir" he answered, "so I think I had better carry your baggage aboard. If you permit deck boy to handle it. you merely have to give another tip. and that would be sheer wanton waste. Why shouldn't earn the one you gave mel"
 'I- hadn't figured it out that way, son, so here's another half dollar for being the only existing specimen of your species in captivity. My state room is No. 34, upper deck, port side" Webster answered, smiling. The man look the tip eagerly and hurried TO- ward the gangplank; the quartermas ter on duty shoulqered way for him and he darted aboard,
 Webster followed leisurely. At the gangplank tine purser's clerk halted

Perhaps I'd better fea6esi my no0T beats also," John Stuart Webster soliloquized, and followed suit imme- diately.
 He had scarcely done so when the men ahead of him paused abruptly. Webster did likewise, and responding -subconsciously, perhaps, to the re- membrance of the menace in the glance of the man with the puckered eye-he stepped out of sight behind a broad oak tree. Through the trees and shrubbery he could still see the lovers, who had halted and evidently were about to part.
 Webster saw the young man glance warily about; then, apparently satis- fled there was none to spy upon them, he drew the girl gently toward him.

The mocking bird trills and sings

And al night he MARBLES his serenadcs

For bride and bridegroom who pligh,ed

And plan for u home In some beautiful

The whole world To them seems world
of Joy
With pleasure and love that nothing

They must learn to give and make

For II n such love that makes n sac

TO REINSTATE
 EXPELLED MEN

Chicago, June 26-W. G. Lee, pres- ident of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, today began work in an effort to bring back to the brother hood ranks the fifteen thousand workers expelled for taking part in unauthorized strikes during the past year.
 With the promise of a wage scale decision before July 20, retroactive to May 1, there is no reason for further dissension in our ranks" he said. Already we have taken back fifteen thousand of the thirty thousand men who were expelled and we will take back others who make proper amends"
 Lee remained here while other heads of the big four brotherhoods returned to their homes. He was in wire communication with leaders of his organization all over the country and declared his belief that efforts to take out trainman and yardnen on strike at midnight would prove futile.
 It is reported that the board which has been in executive session here three weeks, has agreed on a tenta- tive average wage increase for the various crafts of 22 per cent. Mem bers of the board refused to corro- borate this report. -

 There were no passengers in the itney at the time of the accident A call for the ambulance was turned in and when Dr. J. A. Maxwell of the Emergency hospital, responded, he removed Farbas to St. Vincent's hospital . Farbas was reported as resting comfortably at the hospital this noon and that he had suffered no internal injuries.

POLICE . IN HOT
 BATTLE
Thieves Resist Officer
 Taylor But Are Routed.

Ins gun battle between two burglars and Patrolman Chauncey H. Taylor, in the rear of a building at $50 State street at an early hour this morning, the policeman routed the robbers, shot one of the men and prevented the theft of property from the tailor shop of the Sanitary Clean ing company. The unidentified thieves made their escape in an automobile, and when last seen were headed in the direction of Fairfield at a high rate of speed.
 Patro1man Taylor was making his customary rounds in State street at 3:30 o'clock this morning, when he discovered two men in an alleyway alongside the Sanitary Cleaning shop. He ordered the men to surrender, and they started to run. The policeman gave chase and fired a shot at the fugitives. The shorter man of the pair stopped for a second, whipped out a revolver and blazed two shots at the officer. Both bullets went wild, and Officer Taylor, undaunted by the return fire continued the chase. The pursued and pursuer cleared a fence in the backyards between State and John streets, and the officer then fired two more shots at the fleeing men. The smaller man dropped to the ground as if hit by bullet.

DRIVE IS SHORT ABOUT $40,000 Protest By Pastors As sociation Hindered
 Greatly.

The drive of the Salvaton Army for $55, ,o00 to clear the mortgage on their Elm street property which was instituted over a week ago and which closes tonight will fall short of that amount by $40,000, according to Commandant William Dermody.
 Out of the 60,000 books of tickets that were distributed about 10000 have been returned unsold. No of ficial figures on the result of the drive can be given out until complete returns are made which will probably be the early part of next week. The protest of the Pastors Association has greatly hindered the drive and has been the direct cause of many people refusing to handle the selling of the books. As near as could be ascertained the amount realized so far amounts to $6,00O, but will be in creased to approximately $10,000 when the final returns are made.

H0vEY WINS
 FIRST ROUND Lewis Seems to Have Cracked a Bit Under
 Strain.

Reggie Lewis the young golfer of the Greenwich Country Club who has been playing such sterling golf in the matches for the state championship being played over the links of the Brooklawn Country Club seemed to be cracking a. bit under the strain this morning. Playing in the first IS holes of the finals this morning with Roger Hovey of Shuttle Meadow, the present champion, the wonderful short game of Hovey seemed to have a dis tinct effect on him and the honors went to Hovey up.
 Lewis short and long game suffer ed appreciably after the fifth hole when Hoveys sank his ball after a twenty-five yard putt for a two. Hovey went out in 37 and was back in 3S making his score for the round 75. He made a two on the second and another at the fifth. Lewis was out in AZ and improved a bit on the return making it in 39. His score for the round was S1.
 In the finals for the fifth sixteen E. c. Spargo, Brooklawn was defeat ed by H. M. Ridaback up and 4 to go- Play in the championship finals started this afternoon at o'clock and as was the case this morning there was very large gallery following the play.
