PolIyop, meanwhile, quite uncon-

she was happy, Polly loved the
storms, but now, with Daddy in Au-

trees as they swung to and fro over
the shanty roof?
She found herself wishing fearfully

of Robert Percival from smiling al

All of a sudden a frightful flash OF

shook the very earth. Mingled with 1t
came a woman's scream. Polly strug-
gled to her feet. Some one was in

Frantically she drew the dazed Pol

was dense, and the torrents OF rain
pelted their faces. Another zigzag
streak of fire ran across the sky, max.

the shanty. He made no effort to get

Polly. shuddering. LET'S lug him in

Between them they dragged the
heavy, inert body into the shanty and
shut the door. Oscar looked dead

was livid. and his eyes tightly shut.

He understood. and Roberts very

had he worked so hard on any one

bad news to Polly Hopkins.

Somehow Robert had expected this,
but her refusal did not make him any
the less determined to help her. For
time he was silent as Polly slowly
rocked Jerry back and forth.
After few moments the boy fell
asleep, and his sister laid him quietly
on the bed again.

queried forlornly, looking straight at
him. Granny Hope says loves all

then she caught the look he cast
around the room.
'I'll always be squatter," she went
on fiercely. 81 love squatters, do"
His face burned at the emphasis on
her words, yet he liked her better for
by her humble friends.

Miserable days passed for the en-

right arm of the Silent City had been
Topped OF when Hopkins was impris-
oned showed plainly In the AFFECTION
Of It's inhabitants. Every countenance
was wrinkled with anxiety; and still
the strange men lowered about the
lakeside.
Ugly rulnors circulated through the
Silent City. 1t was said that to fix a
felony on Hopkins. the officers claimed
that in searching him, before shutting
him up, they had found revolver In
his pocket Every one that knew him
secuted the Idea, but Jeremiah Hop

The only concession Robert had been

Polly to visit her father, and day after

The entrance of Robert Percival

DEMOCRATS WANT AtL
TO KNOWN |N|QU|T|ES
OF THE TARIFF BILL
(By Associated PressJ

Washington, May 18.-Senate re-
pubiIcans and democrats were in ac-
cord today on at leafs one point with
regard to the administration tariff
bill-that it will be before the senate
for a long time.
Formal notice was given by Sen
ator Lodge, of Massachusetts, the
majority leader, that it was the the
intention of those in charge of the
legislation to keep it under consid-
GRAFTON practically continuously until
it was passed irrespective of the time
required.
Announcement was made by Sen
ator Underwood, of Alabama, the
minority leader, that it was the pur-
pose of the democrats to debate the
bill for weeks, not, he said, for the
purpose of delay, but to let the coun
try know what was in it. &.,.', =.
These announcements were forth
coming in the course of a stormy
session of the senate last night
Which wound up with fiery speech
by Chairman McCumber, of the fl
nance committee, in charge of the
tariff bill, who invited republican
senators absenting themselves on
roll calls either to stay on the Job
or resign.
Senator McCumber said he could
not expect the democrats who did
not believe in the bill to furnish a
quorum, but that he did expect the
republicans who believed in the bill
and who could attend the sessions to
remain on the job. If they did not,
he declared, they should resign and
let their states send to the senate
men who would do so.
