CHAPTER XIII.
Joan Shoots Craps With Her Plny-
mafRs

That rose sweater. innocent enough
In itself, had awakened something
new and urgent in Margaret Hay
den. In proof she had laid II con-
spicuously over the chair which
fronted her dressing table-but not
until Joan had left for school.
All the time she was combing her
hair she could see the becomingness
Of it as she leaned against the rosi-
ness. Just that made her look years
younger, she thought idlyA That
morning when she marketed, she
bought new shades for her candles,
and also for the side lights. They
were of the same deieCtable shade
of rose as was the sweater which
she had again carefully put away in
Joans closet where it belonged.
Margaret had relinquished her
youth, but all suddenly she was
clinging desperately to the attributes
OF youth. 1t shocked. 1t troubled
her. Yet try as she would she could
not shake free from the desire, nor
could she forget the honest admira-

What pretty shades, Mumsie!"
Joan exclaimed, when she came in,

Eyes. especially to anyone little
pale" Margaret returned. Joan was
rather inclined TO paleness, especially
when tired, in which she resembled
her mother. So Margaret was safe
from criticism I'm saying what she
did, although she flushed guiluly at
the subterfuge.
Some way Margaret realized that
between her and Joan there would
be always conflict. She had allowed

START CHAIN GANG
. TO CONTROL HOBOES

Freight trains are being crowded
to capacity by hoboes of every de-
scription, and going every direction,
most of whom get away with It, but
when one of these begins to rebel at
orders issued him by officials of said
trains. he is very apt to meet with a
degree of unpleasantness.
Such was the case of five negroes
who were taken off the train at this
point on Sunday night and lodged In
jail. The five. including woman
dressed as a man. were riding on top
OF car, according to Special Agent
Stith of the w. p, who took them
told to get down into the car along
with others of their avocation in life,
they started to abuse the conductor
and other trainmen. Stith was noti-
fled of their conduct as the train was
passing Red House. and when they
reached this city he took them into
custody, lodging them in jail
They were given a hearing yester-
day before Police Judge Shone, who
placed a charge of vagrancy against
three of them. giving them a $40 fine
each. or ten days In Jail. AS they
were unable to pay the fine. they are
now engaged In clearing weeds from
Bridge street. and acting as an exam
pie to other buns who may think
this good city In which to loaf. The
woman and her so-called husband
whom 1t Is said took no part in the
scrap with trainmen. were allowed to
go their way. after having spent the
night in Jail, and have departed for
parts unknown.
II is reported by officers that not
only men are bumming their way
from one part OF the country to the
other. but also women. and even fam
lilies with small children have been
seen riding the freight trains.
