name, or acknowledge any other pur-
pose. She had used me to further her
ends, whatever they might be, prey
ing upon my personal interest in her,
and yet refusing to lift single fold
of this curtain of mystery.
What could it mean, but that she
was secretly ashamed TO permit of my
full understanding? The thought of
the stolen money, the murder of Alva,
required to me the invitation / had
overheard for her to accompany him
on his fatal trip, and her accept
ance; the positive assertion of Harris
that she had done so; her confessed
knowledge that the money had actual

weapon with which he had been
killed; her remaining in New York in

did she still refuse to confide in me-?
Surely / had been sufficiently tested
and she knew who was. If she was
the sister of a classmate whom knew

for the concealment of her name?
What, indeed, except shame at the
part she was playing in this sordid
drama of life? Some of my earlier
suspicion had been eradicated, for now
it was clearly demonstrated that it
could not have been her knife which
had pierced Alva's heart. Whatever
else / might believe against her, this
evidence. no longer existed, for she
still wore the dagger in her hat. Pecu-
liar as the design was, the weapon
locked in my valise, which / had
picked up blood-stained ON the floor
of the car, was. not hers; it had been
welded in it's deadly work by some
other hand. But whose? Did She
know? Did she even suspect the as
sassin? Was she even now endeavor-

questions We're unanswerable | could

| watched her through the glass
doors until she vanished among the
crowd in the lobby. / could not per-
NIT her to go away like this; to get
beyond my sight and acknowledgement
| hesitated too long, until she had
merged into the swirling crowd and
was lost.
1t was indeed a strange feeling of
loneliness which swept over me in
that moment. Never before had / felt
such depth of interest in woman, or
experienced such regret at parting.
With no apparent effort, seemingly ut
terly Indifferent, she had nevertheless
become intwined with my life, her
preselce necessity for my happiness.
The soft pressure of her body, the
touch of her hand, was intoxication;
the glance of her eyes sent the warm
blood pulsing through my veins. She
had become to me an inspiration,
memory to dream over, hope no
longer to be resisted
This was strange, so strange as to
be beyond understanding. / argued
1t with myself, but to no result. The
fact would not be denied. Here was
an unknown woman, original and
beautiful, to be sure, yet one whose
very identity was shrouded In mys-
terry. To all appearances she was ac-
lively engaged in conspiracy against
the government of Chile, in a crime
against human life. She was unques-
tionably the authorized agent Of a
gang Of revolutionary plotters-T had
witnessed their reception Of her as
one OF their own, and could not doubt
the evidence of my own eyes. She
had borne them instructions, and stood
in their midst, in secret conclave,
speaking as one having authority.
More than that, even. she had refused

Bolshevism Among Capitalists as Well
as Labor, says Harold Bell Wright

That the only cure for the con-
'nct between capital and labor is
a revival of the Nations war spirit
and its application to industry is the
belief of the noted American author,
Harold Bell Wright.

ilea of the oneness Of all humanity.
VIII come. I don't know how 1t will
come; but somehow, the appeal must
be made to the loyal citizens Of this
1ation in behalf of the humanity that
"a, dependent for life itself upon our
industries, exactly as the appeal was
made in behalf of the humanity that
looked to us for help in time Of war
eve must, as nation, learn some
Aow to feel our work as we felt our
war. The same ideals of patriotism
and sacrifice and heroism that were
40 exalted in the war must be held
up in our everyday work. We must
:earn to see our individual jobs In
the industrial organizations of our
country as we saw our places in the
nations army. AS a people we must
grasp the mighty fact that humanity
IS the issue of our mills and shops
and factories and mines, exactly as it
was the ISSUE in our campaigns in
France"
"The individuals attitude toward
che industries of the nation" says
gMr. Wright, must be a test of his
loyal citizenship just as mans at
fftude toward our army was test.
And Americans dare not continue to
Ignore the danger that lies in the
work of those emissaries who are
seeking to weaken the loyalty Of our
workmen and who. by breeding class
hatred and strife in our industries,
are trying to bring about the down
fall of our government and replace
the stars and stripes with the flag
that is as foreign to our American
independence as the flag of the Ger
man Kaiser himself"
After two years of exhaustive study
covering the entire country. Mr.
Wright has become so impressed with
the necessity Of making humanity the

between capital and labor that he has

day of October when their daught-

Hon. ]. F. Robinson of Tunica,
Mississippi.
The colonial family home was
admirably adapted to the occasion.
The double parlors were thrown
together and southern smilax
trailed artistically from the arch
way. A semicircle of handsome
ferns formed the back ground, in
front of which an improvised altar
had been erected. The front parlor
was decorated with large bowls
and baskets of gorgeous pink and
white roses. y
Just before the entrance of the
bridal party, Miss Mabel Gayden
sweetly sang when Song is

Miss Josephine Cooke at the piano
sounded the opening chords of

tered on the arm of her brother l.
