welcome you to our thriving little city,
and, as a friend Of about two min
utes' standing, to warn you away from
It."
Billy's mIen, as he voiced this
warning, was so singularly mysteri-
Gus that Dolores curiosity was
aroused instantly and rose superior
to her grief. "Why, what's the mat
ter?" she demanded.
Billy loked around, as If fearful Of
being overheard. He lowered his
voice. "We're going to have one grand
little first-class revolution" he re-
piled. ITS due to bust almost any
night now. and when It does, the
streets Of San Buenaventura will run
red with blood"
Dolores blanched. sob, dearie me-"
she uuavered. "Do they still have
revolutions here? You know, Mr..
Geary, my poor father was killed In

eyes, and the same old political
gang that shot him is still on deck"
DIZZY NdIltu ltl. II "Oulu NC DISu-
ly dangerous for a Ruey, man or wom-
an, TO show his or her nose around
Buenaventura about now. Besides,
Miss Ruey, that isn't the worst" he
continued, for q whole-hearted lad was
Billy. who never did anything by
halves. 1.-THE city Is reeking with
cholera" he declared.
"ChOlera !" Dolores big brown eyes
grew bigger with wonder and concern.
"How strange the port authorities
didn't warn us at New Orleans!"
Irish Tush FiddlestiCks and then
some. The fruit company censors
everything, Miss Ruey, and the news
doesn't get out"
"But the port doctor just said the
passengers could go ashore"
whats a human life to a doctor?
Besides, he's on the slush-fund pay
roll and does whatever the higherups
tell him. You be guided by what | tell
you, Miss Ruey, and do not set foot
on Sobrantean soil. IF you stay
aboard La Estrellita, you'll have your
nice clean stateroom, your we'll
cooked meals, your bath, and the at
tentiOns Of the st~ewardess. The steam
err will be loaded In two days; then
you go back to New Orleans, and by
the time you arrive there I'll have
been In communication by cable with
Mother Jenks-I mean"
Mother who?" Dolores demanded.
"A mere slip Of the tongue, Miss
Ruey. l was thinking Of my landlady.
l meant Mrs. wilkins"
I'm so awfully obliged to you, Mr..
Geary. You're so kind, I'm sure I'd
be a most %ungrateful girl not to be
guided by you accordingly. You
wouldn't risk any friend Of yours in
this terrible place, would you, Mr..
GearyY
Indeed, I would not. by permitting
anybody l thought anything Of to come
to this city. I should feel guilty Of
murder"
"Tm sure you would, Mr.. Geary.
Nevertheless. there Is one point that Is
not quite clear In my mind, and l wish
you'd explain"

command me. Miss Ruey."
IF this Is such q frightful place,
why are you so anxious, If l may en-
plOy such language. to h~ornswoggle
your dearest friend, Mr.. John s. Web
ster, into coming down here? Do you
want to kill him and get his money
or whatf"
Billy's face famed at thought Of the
embarrassing trap his glib tongue had
led him into. He cursed himself for
a star-spangled jackass. and while he
was engaged In this interesting pas
time Dolores spoke again.
"And by the way, which Is 1t? Miss
wilkins or Mrs? You've called her
both, and when l reminded you she
was a Miss, you agreed with me,
whereas she Is nothing Of the sort.
She's a Mrs. Then you blurted out
something about a Mother jerks. and
finally, Mr.. Geary, 1t occur to me that
for q complete stranger you are un-
duly interested in my welfare. I'm
not such a goose as to asslmilate your
weird tales Of death from disease. It
occurs to me that II your friend John
8. Webster can risk Buenaventura, I
can Also"
"You-you know that old tarantu-
lar Billy gasped. "Why IL came
out to var him of the grass. too"
Dolores walked a step closer to Billy
and eyed him disapprovingiy. I'm 90
sorry I can't believe that statement"
she replied. "Tt happens that I was
standing BY the companion-ladder
when you came aboard and spoke to
the purser; when you asked him II Mr..

alight with eagerness and anticipation.

CHICAGO, Aug. 6~Judge Chas. A. Mcdonald, chief justice of the criminal court, who instituted the grand jury investigation which re- suited in the indictment of the White Sox ballplayers, says that not withstanding the fact the players were acquitted by the trial jury, he believes the great American sport has been purged for a generation to come, and restored to the place it held before the mark of scandal was placed upon it. The result of the trial is disappointing in view of the confessions of guilt, but the grand jury investigation and the prosecu- tion has put the fear of God in the hearts of crooked gamblers and shady players"
