LANGLEY BILL PASSES HOUSE

The Langley bill, transferring
authority to provide additional hos
pital and outpatient dispensary facil-
tiles for persons who served in the
world war from the Treasury depart
ment to the United States Veterans
Bureau, passed the house in the clos
| ing hour of it's session last week and
is now before the senate, where it is
expected that it will receive early con-
sidration.
AS drawn the bill authorized ar APP
, propriation of ST., 600, 900 for the con-
struction of new hospital and outpa-
tient ~dispensary facilities but had no
provision for using any part OF the
funds for reconditioning and fitting
up existing structures owned by the
Government. Congressman William
son of South Dakota contended that
all existing structures which were
suitable for the purpose should be
nut into immediate use and succeeded
in so amending the bill as to make the
funds available for their utilization
when practicable. His amendment
also authorizes the President to trans
fer any available buildings and
grounds to the Veterans Bureau for
disqualification and training purposes.
Under the authority granted in this
amendment it is expected that Fort
Meade, South Dakota, n of the fin
est of its kind in the United States,
will be taken over by the Bureau and
put to early use. This fort has at
least eight fine brick and stone struc-
lures now available for the purpose
and has ample facilities for caring
for a thousand to twelve hundred pa.
~tients. While it has not been occu'
pied by trops for more than ten years
it has been kept in fine condition BY
! the Government.

Wherein 10 One Of the Many Private
PanIcs Which Followed the Bursting
Of the Bubble Of Speculation.

Samson and Harry saw the bursting
Of the great bubble Of '37. Lat. that
night. Disaster, loathsome and thou
sand-legged. crept into the little city.
It came on a steamer from the East
and hastened from home to home,
from tavern to tavern. Great banks
had suspended payment; New York
had suffered panic; many large busI-
ness enterprises in the East had
failed; certain agents for the bonds
Of Illinois had absconded with the
states money; in the big cities there
had been an ominous closing Of doors
and turning Of locks; 4 great army
of men were out Of employment. The
little city was in frenzy Of excitement.
Tile streets were filled with q shout
ing, haIf-craxed throng. New fortunes
had shrunk to nothing and less than
nothing In q night. Lots In the city
were offered for = 1.-THE Of what their
market value had been. Davis had
known that the storm would arrive
with the Arst steamer and In the

wanted 70 sell. He bought two corner

"There are no better men," she an
swered. "When you get back we shall
see what comes of our little romance.
Meanwhile I'm going to pray for you"
"And I for you" he said as he fol-
lowed her into the house. where the
older people sat waiting for them.
Harry gave the papers to Bim to be
signed and attested and forwarded
to Mr.. Stuart in Springfield.
On their way to the hotel Samson
said to Harry:

That night, in the office of the City
hotel, they found Mr.. Lionel Davis in
the midst Of group of excited specu.
lators. In some way he had got across
the prairies and was selling his land
and accepting every offer on the plea
that he was going into the grain busi.
ness in st. Louis and had to leave
Chicago next day. He choked the
market with bargains. The buyer
began to back of. Mr.. Davis closed
his carpet bag and left.

things for u.s." BIN said one evening
when he had called to see them.
"And I cannot help loving you and
doing the little can to express It,"
he answered. " would like to make

way that love you. That's how l
feel and you might as well know it."
"But do not love you. Mr.. Davis"

he pleaded. "Is there any reason why
I shouldn'tr

IL manw BIN exclaimed with tears
In her eyes.
SO he seemed to be, but he was one
of those men who weave a spell like
that of an able actor. He excited
temporary convictions that began to
change as soon as the curtain fell.
He was no reckless villain of romance.
II he instigated the robbery of the
south-bound mail wagon, Of which the
writer Of this little history has no
shadow Of doubt, he was so careful
about It that no evidence which would
satisfy Jury has been discovered to
this day.
On account Of the continued illness
Of her mother BIN was unable to re-
sumo her work In the academy. She
took what sewinA she could do at
home and earned enough to solve the
problems Of each day. But the pay
ment coming due on the house In De-
cember loomed ahead Of them. 1t
was natural. In the circumstances,
that Mrs. Kelso should like Mr.. Davis
and favor his aims.
Mrs. Kelso's health had improved
slowly 80 that she was able then to
spend most of each day In her chair.
One evening when Davis sat alone
with her, she told him the story Of
Bim and Harry Needles bit OF
knowledge he was glad to have. Their
talk was interrupted by the return Of
BIN. She was in q cheerful mood.
When Mr.. Davis had gone she said
to her mother:
II think our luck has turned. Here's
a letter from John T. Stuart. The
divorce has been granted. I am going
to write to Harry and tell him to
hurry home and marry me II he wants
to. Don't say q word about the d.
vorce to our friend Davis. I want to
make him keep his distance. 1t Is
hard enough now"
Before she went to bed that night
she wrote a long letter to Harry anu
one to Abe Lincoln. thanking him for
his part In the matter and telling him
Of her fathers death, Of the payment
due and of the hard times they were
suffering. Two weeks passed and
brought no answer from Mr.. Lincoln.

Late in the night he was awakened
by an unusual movement among the
horses. In the dim light Of the fire
he could see man In the act of
bridling Abe's horse.
Hold up your hands," Samson
shouted as he covered the man With
his pistol. "If ye stir a foot I'll bore
hole In ye."
The man threw up his hands and
stood still.
In half a moment Abe Lncoln and
Harry hed got up and captured the
man and the loosed horse
This is part Of the entry which
Samson made In his diary a week or
so later:
Harry put some wood on the nre
while Abe and led him up into the
light He was one Of the dirty white
men we had seen at the tavern.
"'I'll give-you four hundred dollars
for a hoss in good Michigan money
he said.
"Tf ye can't steal 4 horse you're
will!n' to buy one,' 1 says
"'No, sir. only come to buy says
he.
II Topped him sudden and asked
him why he was putting on the bride.
He owned up then. Said a man
had hired him to steal the horse.
"'That man has got to have hOss,'
he said. He'll give ye any price ye
want to ask. If you'll give me few
dollars I'll take ye to him.
"'You go and bring him here and
TIL talk to him. / said.
II let the feller 60. I didn't sup
pose he'd come back, but he did.
Came little before sunrise with that
well-dressed feIler we saw at the
tavern.
"What's your name? I says.
"He handed me card on which I
read the words Lionel Davis, Real Es-
tate. Loans and Insurance. IA South

"'There's one branch o. your busi-
ness that isn't mentioned on the card
l says.
"'What's that?' says he.
"'Horse- thief says l. You sent
that feller here to steal a horse and
he got caught
"'Well told him " he'd get me a
good horse I'd give him Ave hundred
dollars and that / didn't care how he
got him. The fact is I'm desperate.
I'll give you thousand dollars for one
Of your horses
"'You couldn't buy one Of 'em at any
price, said. There's two reasons. l
wouldn't do business with horsethief
and no money would tempt me to sell
an animal to be ridden to death
"The two thieves had had enough
Of us and they got out"
That night our party camped on the
shore of the Kankakee and next day
they met the contractors. Lincoln
Joined the latter party and Harry and
Samson went on alone. Late that af.
ternoon they crossed the nine-mile prai-
rie. beyond which they could see the
simmer Of the lake and the sunlit
structures Of the new city.
There It is." said Samson. "Four
thousand. one hundred and eighty
people live there. 1t looks like stur-
dy two-year-old."
The houses were small and cheaply
built and Of many cOlors. Some were
implanted. Near the prairie they
stood like people on the outer edge Of
