that certain compromising letters she
has written to a judge have fallen
into the hands of a blackmailer. She
visits the office of the blackmailer
and begs him for the letters. He re-
fuses and struggle ensues. He falls,

stabbed to death. In his hand is the
piece of material ripped from the wo-
mans dress. The woman is a friend
of the prosecuting attorney in charge
of the mystery. Shall she tell him
of what happened? She may escape
q murder trial but she will ruin her
reputation and that of the Judge.
What shall she do?

BOr' SCOUTS
TROOP II.

Troop II. met Friday night at 7
o'clock at the office of Scoutmaster
Dan Chappell with % present. He
was two minutes late, but as soon as
he got there we went down to our
new meeting place next to the tea
room, which is being fixed up for us
by the Lions club, and which will be
used by that organization as meet
ing place also. We were all pleased
with our new place very much and
feel that neither of the other troops
will have better place than we will
when it gets fixed up. In behalf of
Troop II we want to thank each and
every member of the Lions club for
what they are doing for us.
We are to have a game of base
ball with Troop III Tuesday after
noon at $3.50 o'clock at the Play
grounds. This is our second game of
the season, and we hope to win this
one as we did our first game. Every
body is invited to come out to see
the game and we feel sure that they
will see a fast game.
We are to go to church Sunday
night in body and every member is
urged to meet at the overhead bridge
at 7:l5 by Scoutmaster Dan Chap
