Oliver Brync ran his car down 10
the turn in the woodland road. Then
his horn barked greeting TO the blue
clad figure hurrying toward the car.
The woman waved her hand in re-
Spouse.
''Come, help me over the fence" she
called.
With conscious quickening of
pulses the man lifted her over. She
laughed up into his face.
Ibid keep you waiting? l tried to
be on time.
II was afraid"
"For me--or of me?" With the
question her laughter rang out. Her
eyes challenged him.
1.-THE Queen rides out today" he
quoted softly as he helped her into
the car.
"Wnere?" ms she snuggled down be-
side him.
He named an inn some miles away.
But why 20 there?'
swell, one must eat; and / remem-
Der that you love TO dance"
''You wouldn't like it?'
He leaned to her. Not for a single
minute, but"
1--WE won't go, then"
"Well, where?"
She told him and he stared at her,
wondering.
''You told me you never wanted Ia
see that place again-that you wanted
10 forget"
''That was more than a month ago
"You mean that now you DON'T
"What would you forget if you
could?"
"First of all tnat my wife has de-
cided to divorce me-"
You're sorry?'
LAS the devil !" eXplosively. "And
for all the sins of omission and com
mission that made her think she would
be happier without me-"
AMI now she could not look at linn,
though she tried. You say these
things-and To me-" she managed in
smothered tones.
'"To you first of all Allie" lie
leaned to her again, his breath hot on
her cheek.
There's the place!" she cried, con-
scious even as she spoke that it was
a mistake. Then, in rush of swift
confusion: perhaps you can't help
being yourself, but, / should think
you'd get tired of your own wilfulness
at times"

glanced at him with slant eyes. II
got tired long before you showed me"

were saying wonderful things.

And this time he did not resist the
impulse that moved him. His arms

The tennis courts and other play
ground paraphernalia placed in the
city park this summer prove to be the
best thing the park board has done
in years, and is providing outdoor
healthful recreation for large num-
Der of young folks. The tennis courts
seem to be a drawing card, but some
of the players do not seem to realize
that others want to play and have the
same rights that they enjoy. We are
told that certain ones get onto these
courts right after dinner and keep
possession of the courts all afternoon
shutting out others from playing. This
is all wrong and will not be tolerated.
Rules are to be strictly enforced along
these lines and when other players are
waiting those playing at the time will
be given limited time. This is as it
should be, after that everything will
be all right.

FAILURE OF PEACE
PACT MEANSL0NC
RAILROAD STRIKE

Chicago, III. July 15-Railroad shop
men are set for a long drawn out
strike today following the virtual fail
ure of the peace negotiations. Fun
damental differences prevent the
strikers and railroad officials from
reaching immediate peace agreement.
Chairman Ben w. Hooper Of the Unit"
ed States Labor Board who has been
acting as mediator announced. Hoop
err has not given up hope Of the set
Element and is in constant communi-
cation with striking officials. mine
officials will have to break down., he
said. The strikers here foresee a
walkout that will probably last for
months and have begun the selection
of fighting force. This force will
be composed of Is to 20 per cent of
the strikers and will take charge Of
the picketing and other such activities
The other remaining 80 per cent will
take over jobs, other than railroad
work. This, railroad officials believe,
will lessen the chance of violence by
having less unemployed around the
shops where railroads are operating
with strike breakers and will also
build up strikers benefit fund.

F0RD'S MUSSLE
OFFER REJECTED

Washington, D. c., July Is. - The
senate agricultural committee today
was unable to agree on the majority
report in the offer for the develop
ments of the Mussle Shoals power
project. Every offer was rejected.
Ford's offer was rejected by vote of
9 to 7, and Norris plan for govern
ment development of the project was
voted down by 9 to 5. This means
that no offer secured sufficient votes
to warrant majority report. This
leaves the two offers to be given a
minority report to the senate, one ia
voring the Ford offer and the other
Norris plan. This action will leave
the ALLEGATION. of the development Of
the contract entirely up to the sem
ate.

Ross, erstwhile pitcher for the Hi
Liners, has signed up with the Fargo
Athletics and has joined that team at
Aberdeen. Ross did not get away to
very good start with the Hi-Liners
but may show up to good advantage
with the Fargo club. Bell, who was
released by Manager Bachant at Wah-
peton during the present road trip, is
reported to have affixed his signature
to a Sioux Falls contract. Bell has a
lot on the ball but is shy of control
and was a sure loser for the locals.
Practically all of the clubs in the lea
que are short on pitchers and are
grabbing up anyone who happens to
be free agent.

The park board has decided to fix
up the north side of the Northern Pa
cific right of way by the depot. They
are busy getting this space filled with
black dirt and as soon as it is filled
the ground will be levelled and grass
sown so that a lawn may be started.
There will be driveway to the ex-
press and baggage rooms but the rest
of the space will be fixed up for lawn
and flower beds. This action will re-
move one of the sore spots of the
city as the traveller does not get a
very good opinion of the city with
this patch of bare ground to gaze at
from the train window.

Louis Clark says that local apostles
of Isaac Walton need not go to Min
nesota lakes for their fishing as we
have some mighty good fishing right
here. He says he went to the Shey-
enne the other day and brought home
five large pike, the largest Of which
weighed five pounds. We haven't
heard any other local fishermen claim
ing to have caught anything larger
than that SO we can agree with Louis
that the best fish are here at home.
Some of the people in the city pre-
dicted this wave of hot weather on the
strength of the falling of a meteor
two or three nights ago. The meteor
was seen falling across the sky and
was visible for some time. It fell
at about 200 o'clock in the morning
and lightened up the sky almost as
bright as day as it neared the earth,
finally exploding, seemingly close to
the earth. There is an old saying that
the falling of a meteor is a certain
sign of hot weather and the parties
who saw the recent phenomena were
basing their predictions on the
strength of that.

BENUMBlNC EFFECT
OF STRIKES FELT

Washington, D. c., July 13-Be-
effects of the two great
strikes made itself felt in the Nations
systems according to
reports received by President Hard
ing. Trains are being withdrawn in
large numbers from the service daily,
the report revealed Striking railroad
shopmen are responsible for the con-
dition in the east while the coal strike
is responsible for the western condit-
ion. President Harding has received
confidential reports from all over the
country, the report showed. Indica-
lions are that additional trains will be
laid off. A creeping paralysis, one
official says, is now in progress and
if the progress continues for two
weeks more the industry of the nation
will be forced to lay down their tools,
it was said. The post office depart
ment is planning to prevent the de-
moralization of the mails. A vast
fleet of aeroplanes, motor trucks, and
automobiles will be pressed into the
service in the event of the break down
in the railroad systems. Thousands of
trucks are in the possession of the
post office department and if this
fails to meet with the demand the
war department will be called on. If
the combined equipment of these two
departments fail to give sufficient
service, it is planned to enter into
contracts with private concerns.
/ The postoffice department now OPP
crates truck service between points
isolated by the railroad strike. In the
meantime the administration officials
have stated that federal troops will
be used only as a last resort. Local
authorities cooperating with the Fed
eral will be given the first task OF
keeping order. If they can not cope
with the situation state troops will
