Patty answered, and flushed in the
shadows as though she had been tell
ing an untruth. Yet she had not,
though she conveyed an untruthful
impression to the boy.
He stood up to go. She felt, as he
came to her, that he wanted to kiss
her, and drew back
"No-please. You're you're awfully
nice, Basil-but / don't want to be
kissed. You'll fall in love with some
one else-Gladys, probably, and be

have been sacreligious. Paul might

finally left. She shrugged her Shout

something unpleasant.

in surprise.
1t was all easier than Basil could
have hoped.

explained, And his face showed his
relief at having said it at last.

His chance came soon. Jimmy, with
whom Patty also liked to play tennis,
had a position in the one real estate

Jimmy stopped on his way to the
court.
Sure? Want to buy one?" His
tones We're soothing. He wanted to
begin a new game.

Jimmy stopped Business before

Chapter IS.


A week or so after the visitors from
the East had left, Basil proposed to
Patty. Even if she had not been in
love with someone else, she would
have refused. For Basirs methods
were not in the least romantic, and
Patty was one of the most romantic
minded of young women.
They had been playing tennis. 1t
was a hot afternoon in late June, and
after the games, they sat in the big
wicker chairs near the courts. That
in itself would have made Patty re-
fuse-for they were in those very
chairs when Paul had so suddenly
caught her and kissed her goodbye.
81 like playing tennis with you,
Basil volunteered. Patty gave him
her vague sweet smile and remarked
impersonally that she appreciated the
compliment, since girls were usually
so inferior to men at the game.
Three minutes later it occurred to
Basil that this was an excellent open
ing for a proposal-he could have gone
right along with something about lik-
ing to play tennis with her all his life,
and from that to being in love and
wanting to marry her-but meantime
he had asked her if she was thirsty.
"I'll go make some lemonade" he
said, deciding that. he could think of
something quite classy" to say while
he was gone.
But alas! three light headed young
| women talked to him all the time he

Committee Will
Speed Up Work
On Tariff Bill
TRepubIlcan A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Mar. 29.-To speed
up work on the tariff bill, senate
finance committee Republicans held
long session tonight, considering the
question of whether there shall be
duties on dyes or an embargo as
urged by Senator Frelinghuysen of
New Jersey. committee member.
Senator Shortridge. Republican of
California, chairman of the special
committee, investigating charges of
a dye lobby in Washington, was one
of those heard.
Odds and ends in the tariff bill oc-
cupied tn esenators much of the time
today and there seemed to be little
prospect that their hope of complet-
ing the bill by Saturday night would
be realized. In the last few days
number of subjects regarded as closed
have been reopned at the insistence
of senators interested. and commit
teemen said this had caused some
unexpected delay.
While the completed bill probably
will not be ready for consideration
by the entire committee. including
the Democratic members, on Monday,
the expectation now is that it will be
ready for presentation to the senate
before the end of next week.

Another ArbuckIe
Witness Missing
TRepuhIIcan a. p. Leased Wlrel

SAN FRANCISCO, Mar. 29.-The
prosecution in the third trial of Ros-
coe Arbuclxle on a manslaughter
charge won a point just before court
adjourned tonight when Judge Harold
Louderbach granted a motion to
strike out parts of the testimony Of
Jesse Norgaard. Norgaard had tes-
titled that he had once been in jail
and this, with other references to his
former life, formed the portion de-
leted from the record.
Norgaard's principal testimony was
that Arbuckle who is accused of
causing the lth OF Miss Virginia
Rappe, had ol-ered him money for a
key to Miss Rappe's dressing room
at Culver City, Cal, motion picture
studio where Norgaard acted as night
watchman.
Mrs Virginia Warren, Chicago
trained nurse, appearing as a defense
witness, testified that she once had
cared for a patient named Miss Vir-
ginia Rapp who suffered from an
abdominal trouble. This, she said,
was in Chicago in 1908. Mrs War
rem was on the stand when the ses-
sion closed tonight.
Affidavits were introduced by the
defense today setting forth that Mrs.
Kate Brennan, chambermaid at the
Hotel ST. Francis, where the state
charges Miss Rappe was injured by
Arbuckle. had disappeared. She was
an important witness in earlier trials
of the comedian and the defense Of
fered a motion that her testimony
as given then be read into the record.
