CHAPTER TX
The Blow From the Dark
In short, Monsieur Duchemin
considered convalescence at The
Chateau de Montalais one of the
most agreeable Of human estates.
But now an end. Tomorrow the
detectives commissioned by Mad.
anne de Montalais's bankers would
arrive. Tomorrow Eve would set
out on her journey to Paris. To.
morrow Andre Duchemin must
walk forth from the Chateau dc
Montalais and turn his back on an
that was most dear to him in life,
On the last night, Eve smoked
only one cigaret with Duchemln In
the drawing room after dinner,
then excused herself to wait on
Madame de Sevenie and finish her
packing. II shall miss Won. mon
sieur. The chateau will seem
lonely when l return"
"And the world, madame" said
Duchemin-"the world into which
! must go-it, too, will seem "a
lonely place-a desert, haunted. :.
you will soon forget-cha-
teau de Montalals."
Forget! When all I shall have
will be my memories"
YES" she said I'VE shall both
have memories........' And sud
denly the rich, deep voice quoted
In English: Memories like al
mighty wine.'"
She offered to disengage her
hand, but Duchemin frightened
gently the pressure of his fingers,
bowling over. 1t. His lips touch
cd her hand for a moment; then
he released 1t. She went swiftly
to the door, faltered. turned.
I'VE shall see each other in
the mornnig-to say au revoir,
With us, monsieur, 1t must never
be adieu."
She was gone; but she had left
Duchemtn with singing heart
that would not let him sleep
when he had gone to bed.
TIL long after midnight he
tossed restlessly, bedeyiled, alter
nately by melancholy and exhil-
aration.
He heard the clock strike two,
and shortly after in tit of exas-
peration, lighted the candle,
found his book, and fumbled
valnly for a cigarette.
What greater folly could there
be than TO want a cigarette and
do without one when there were
plenty in the drawing room, 10
be had for the taking? He rose
and left his chamber.
Shielding the candle flame
with his hand, he gained the
drawing room as noiselessly as
any ghost.
The fire had died down till
only embers glowed, faint under
films Of ash.
The cigarettes were not where
he had expected to find them,
near one end Of a certain table.
Duchemin put down the candle
stick and moved toward the other
end, discovering the box he
sought as soon as his back was

Unable To Get Call Through To
Girl, Omega Young Man Has
Row With Male Operator

to murder as the result of an alleged
attack he made on James Wilson,
telephone operator at Norman Park,
is lexpected to go to trial in Colquitt
Superior court here this afternoon.
According to Wilson's version of the
incident the case against Smith is
an aggravated one. 1t is claimed
that Smith became enraged, when. ne
tried to talk to the pirk going to
school at Norman ParE and was told
that the telephone at the dormitory
was temporarily dead, and took
charge. of the exchange at Omega,
calling Norman Park himself. Will

rang he said that he politely informed
him that the dormitory phone was
out of service. Wilson says that

over the phone that "you are double
everything you say | am. %
Smith at the end of the long dis
tance quarrel got into his automobile
and drove to Norman Park some ten
or twelve miles away to look Wilson
up. In the meantime the telephone
operator was called by Omega and
told that Smith was on his way to
Norman Park and he left his work to
hunt up the town marshal. Smith
on arriving at Norman Park went
at once to the telephone exchange.
Learning that Wilson was not in,
he hunted him on the street, A fight
followed and before the officer who
had been found by Wilson could in
tervene the latter had been stabbed
twice. Wilson has about recovered
and will be the states chief witness
in the trial of Smith.

Nor is that idealism of different

1t is to recognize the great princi-
Piles of that master idealist- Wood

his honor is soon to be established,

created by public subscription.
The Woodrow Wilson Foundation
through its campaign, will give to
the friends of the broad idealisnl
which Mr.. Wilson voiced, the oppor-
tunity to establish a fund that may
for all time be maintained intact,
having its income devoted to the
reward of those who have done what
Mr.. Wilson himself has done-ren-
dered meritorious service to democ.
racyy public welfare, liberal thought,
and peace through justice.
In order that there may be def
mite assurance that the purposes of
the foundation will be viewed with
the proper vision in years to come, it
has been decided that the trustees
shall be Is in number and shall be
selected as nearly as possible from
all sections of the country.
The trustees are to disburse the
income of the endowment annually
to the Jury of Awards composed of

BY CLEVELAND Fl. DODGE
Chairman Executive Committee,
Woodrow Wilson Foundation


NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-Are we
idealists?
This question has taken hold uof
the Imagination of Americans and it
is to be feared that sometimes the
too hasty observer has seemed to
see the sunset of idealism and the
dawn of Spracticalism.
Yet both opinions are wide of the
truth. Ideals may have been differ
ent among parties, but they have
been ideals.
Who shall say that an association
of nations is different from league >
And who shall say that the aims of
the present conference on the .limita-
tion of armament are different from
those of Mr.. Wilson, who demanded
that a condition of world peace be
adequate guarantees = = = that ma
tional armaments will be reduced to
the lowest point consistent with do
mestic safety?
1t is only when time is plentiful
that men will stop in the midst of a
task and ask, "Are we idealists?"
They did not propose the question
! during the war, though they were
grateful when the ideal for which
they fought had its expression in the
word democracy"
Yet there was no need of name.
We were fighting for an ideal,
whether or not our vocabulary re-
stricted our ability to express it.
The world and we never doubted
our idealism then.
And now, though the heat of poll
tical strife has often scorched all in

MORE BRUTALITY
IN ARMY RECITED
However, Witnesses Fail To Sub.

Hanging Charges


I WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The
shooting of soldier by firing squad
in France was described to the SEN
ate investigating committee today by
George Yarbrough, of Roanoke, Ala
bama, who said he was an eye wit
ness Yarbrough said the execution
took place near Chateau Thierry in
July, 1918. He said he didn't know
l'whether there had been a trial and
didn't know of any other execution.
James M. Elliott, of Newark, N.
j., who served with the medical corps
overseas, ,told of seeing man show
ed under a faucet fully dressed and
forced to stay there twenty minutes
Testimony relating to alleged bru-
tality toward enlisted men in home
| and foreign prison camps was pre-
sented also yesterday to the commit
tee investigating the Watson charges
that American soldiers had been
hanged without trial in France. There
was no evidence bearing on the
charge of illegal hangings.
Called as a witness, after tele-
graphing Senator Watson, Democrat,
Georgia, that he knew of the killing
of three soldiers, Bruce Bennear, of
Elk Garden, w. ", said he had no
knowledge of his own as to such
crimes. Sharply pressed by members
of the committee as to his reason for
making conflicting statements, Ben
near explained that he had written
the telegram and that small town
operator, rewriting them with the
view ]! of eliminating unnecessary
words, had made him say what he
did not mean.
In concluding the examination,
Chairman Brandegee gave the wit
nesses all the time they wanted, but
in some instances was unable to get
a eyes" or "no" answer to direct
questions as to whether privates al
legged to have been beaten up in
prison camps had been actually killed.
Harry K. Walmer, of New York,
told the committee that while in the
air service in France he was trans
ferred to another station, the name
of which he did not remember, and
in passing through Paris was picked
up and put in prison as "a lost and
