All aglow and atrifle breath
less, she met Darragh Just beyond
the veranda, rested one mtttened
hand on his shoulder while ne
knblt and unhuckled her snow
shoes, stepped lightly from them
and came forward to Eve with
outstretched hand and o sudden
winning gravity in her lovely face.
1--WE shall be friends, surely"
she said In her quick winning
voice-''because my husband has
told me-and / am so grieved for
you-and / need a girl friend"
Holding both Ewes hands, her
mIttens dangling from her wrist,
she looked into her eyes very
steadily.
Slowly EYES eyes fixed: more
slowly Rlcca kissed her on both
cheeks, framed her face in botll
hands, kissed her lightly on the
lips.
Then, still holding Ewes hands.
she turned and looked at stor-
mont.
81 remember you now" she
said. You were with my hus-
band in Riga"
She freed her right hand and
held 1t out to Stormont. He had
the grace to kiss 1t and did It very
well for q Yankee.
Together they entered the
kitchen door and turned into the
dining room on the left, where
were chairs around the plain

Darragh said: 1.-THE new mis-
tress of Harrod Place has select
ed your quarters, Eve. They adj
join the quarters OF her friend,
the Countess 0rloff- strelwitz."
Valentine begged me-" said
Ricca, smiling. "She is going to
be lonely without me. All hours
OF day and night we were trot-
ting into one another's rooms"
She looked gravely at Eve: "You
will like Valentine; and she will
like you very much. AS for
mel already love you"
She put one. arm around Ewes
shoulders: How could you even
think of remaining here all alone2
Why, I should never close my
eyes for thinking Of you, DEAR"
Ewes head dropped: she said
in a stifled voice: "I'll 60 with
you. I want to I'm very
tired"
I'VE had better go now,h said
Darragh. your things can bs
brought over later. n you'll dress
for snow-shoeing, Jack can pack
what clothes you need Are
there snow-shoes for him, too?"
Eve turned tragically to her
lover: I'm Dads closet" sho
said. choking: then turned and
went up the stairs, still clinglng
to Ricca's hand and drawing her
with her.

SHOP CRAFT WAGE
FIGHT OPENS TODAY
Representatives of 100000
Employees Oppose Cut Before
Rail Labor Board.
BY the Associated Pre- 50.

CHICAGO. March 6.-The six rail-
road shop craft unions, representing
100000 employees, were the first group
of railroad workers on the program
today at the opening of the fight
over the present scale Of wages be-
tween railroad labor and the nations
largest transportation lines before
the United States Railroad Labor
Board.
Petitions asking for a<10 per cent
wage reduction have been placed be-
fore the board by ia roads. while
the shopmen have asked increases of
13 cents an hour over the present
scale on eighty-five of these roads.
Increases on more than the eighty
five roads were not asked, 1t was
said, because Of failure to get the
employees petitions in on time.
More than 175 roads have placed
petitions for reductions before the
board, while many groups of en-
ployes have adopted a method similar
to that of the shopmen by making
counter proposals for wage advances.
1t was said that b. M. Jewell. presi-
dent 6f the railway employees depart
representing the shopmen, would be
prepared to ask postponement of the
hearing on technical grounds, and at
tempts to block the hearings were re-
garded as likely in railroad circles.

part of the president to secure the
support of Gen. Chang Tso-Lin, gov
ernor of Manchuria, by appointing his
half brother, Pao kwei-Ching, pre-
mier. have apparently failed of their
object. The Manchurian governor has

action on his part is considered. an
intimation to the president relations
have been severed and that the capi-

cares to do SO.
The president has issued a state

an opinion by Justice Robb, today
affirmed the action of the District
Supreme Court in refusing man
damus asked by the Western Union

ed : that poles and other telegraph
equipment belonging to 1t had been
included in the commissions valua-

The appellate court, affirming the
District Supreme Court, held the Pc
tition prematurely filed. because the
commission had not yet valued the

court suggests the decision bf the
commission will be according to law

" ere constantly employed by the
speakers.
with the exception Of a minor flag
incident, when girls and women tore
down Free State tri-color, perfect
order was maintained by the repub,
}ican police. The resentful croWd
jeered and booed the women for the
flag affair and attempts at Interrupt
tion by q handful of the same women
who remained near the platform were
drowned out by popular protest. MT.
Collins, in a long speech, defended the
treaty. He asserted that once the Free
State was established the union OF
northeast Ulster with the remainder
of Ireland was certain. He expressed
determination to proceed to the estab-
hshment of a police force despite the
warnings Of Eamon de Valera. 1t would
not be a political force to protect any
specfal section, but would be for the
protection of every citizen In Ireland.
1t is reported that the dispute or
the Irish postal employees with the
government over a ten shillings cut
in wages had been settled and the
threatened strike thereby averted.
