XLI.-S -Suspense!

Then she removed her damp suit and shoes, took off her hat and wrapped her self in a thick, quilted dressing gown. She removed the pins from the masses of her curly hair and started to brush it out, for her head ached just a trifle and the brushing eased it.
 Then she turned the gas up higher and surveyed her reflection in the greenish looking glass.
 Even the cheapness of the mirror couldn't dim Mary's beauty. Tired, wet and disappointed as she was, it glim- mered back at her.
 Over her shoulders flowed her dusky hair, a mass of silken ripples and long, broken curbs. Like a dim cloud, il framed the oval of her pale, pretty face.
 Her smoke-blue eyes, put in with a murky finger held wistful beauty in their depths, the long lashes black against her checks
 And Mary's mouth was all soft curves and sweetness. No mean lines had come to mar it yet.
 Cheer up, old girl!' said Mary to the pretty image ill the glass Even though you aren't going to see him, you ought to be the happiest irl in the whole world tonight. He cares for you-you care for him-Eve Rochester's tales are all tar radiddles!"

UPSHAW DEMANDS VOTE
 FOR WASHINGTON PEOPLE

Washington May 5.-(Special )-Another southerner in Congress has joined the ranks of those who demand a vote for
 the people of Washington. He is the
 impetuous Representative Upshaw of the
 Atlanta (Ga) district.
 In speaking to the Sixteenth Street Citizens association this week, MT. Up- shaw, with a rare oratorical effort, eX- claimed: Does it seem right that the
 children of this city should be taught
 the principles of our government, to love
 our flag, and then, upon reaching tha age of majority, be denied the right to vote have to move into Maryland or virginia to enjoy that privilege? No, and
 no right thinking person will so think. " There are very few southerners in sup port of the Washington propaganda. They are deterred because of the ever increasing and ever-increasingly erro- gant negro population which would con
 stitute the balance of power, take pos session of the constabulary and elect a
 member of Congress. This negro vote, furthermore, would make the district an additional republican asset. and the re-
 publican advantage at the present time is great enough.
 But Galahad. if the very interesting
 stories regarding him are true, often
 sacrificed personal incinations, desires and advantages in that the right might prevail Thus, MT. Upshaw follows in worthy footsteps

Tuscaloosa, May 5.-(Special.)- Love is Jest as likely to come on you at 76 as at 21," qouth c. PS Glow of the county almshouse while waiting for his marriage license to be signed ia the probate office today. Mir. Glow had just given his age as 76 and that of Miss Fannie Greene, the bride to- be, as SS. just half as old as he They were both living on the farm for the poor when this wonderful sensation came upon them. There were those who objected. but they loved each other.
 Judge Brandon performed the cere- m mony, and the groom saluted his bride with smack which started the echoes in that staid old building.
 They have gone to the home from whence they came, where they will spend a honeymoon, and, although MT Glow admitted that he had spent his last S2.50 for his license, he said that they. together, would succeed in life yet.

HARDING ID SEND SENATE DELETED
 COPY OF TREATY
Lodge Will Oppose President In Effort to Secure ASsoCia- ton of Nations for Pres
 ervation of Peace
By HUGH W. ROBERTS Washington Bureau The AgeHerald
 800 Davidson Building

Washington, May 5.--(Special. )-Follow- ing the passage through the House of the Knox resolution, declaring state of peace between the United States and Germany. it Is regarded as practically certain that the President will send to the Senate deleted copy of the much abused treaty of Versailles.
 In this connection, it is an observa- ton of interest and importance that Sen ator Lodge, leader of the republican ma jorty and chairman of the committee on foreign relations, gives indication that he will oppose the President in his eff fort to secure a league or an associa- tion of nations for the preservation of the peace of the world.
 If he carries out what now appears to be his purpose, he will align himself with Senators Borah and Johnson, re- publicans, and Senators Watson of Geor- gia, Shields and Reed, democrats. There is every indication, however, that he will be unable to carry with him his former colleagues who supported him in destroying the scheme of Woodrow Will

ate must refrain from an interference with the duties of the executive.
 Further bearing on the Lodge defec- ton, the Washington Star, republican in tendency, declares in the conclusion of a long and singularly significant ed torial: "On the face of the discourse of Senator Lodge, it would look as If. in guiding the country to ultimate honor and security, the President is to encoun- ter the opposition of the chairman of the foreign relations committee of the Senate. There is however, the satis- faction of knowing that should such opposition develop beyond the stage of impolitic and probably unconsidered sen atorial palavers, the outcome will estab- fish, beyond peradventure of a doubt. that President Harding is, in fact as well as in name, the leader of his party and of the nation"

There are those who are aware of the inordinate fondness of Lodge for Lodge. | But those who think that he regards | himself as capable of winning the presi- dency, even were he the nominee, are l few, indeed.
 But the approach of another senatorial struggle over the idea involved in a league or an association of nations IS viewed with obvious satisfaction by Senator Johnson of California and hi. main supporter, Senator Borah of Idaho. If Harding forces the United States into any variety of "entangling alliances" Johnson. it is regarded as certain. will declare himself a candidate for the presi- dency.

contented army and navy officers raj
lied to this idea and conspiracy was
organized to depose the emperor and
declare a republic.
On November IA, 1889, the palace
was quietly surrounded, and on the
following morning the emperor and
his family we're placed on board ship
and sent to Portugal. A provisional
government was then formed and a
proclamation issued that the coun-

due time a republican constitution
would be framed.
