"The bell?"

minutes before; the porter did not

back again rather strangely.

pale. and that the girl must notice it.

a sense that, by Eaton's admission of
the fact, Connery had been disap-
pointed.
"All right. Mr.. Eaton" Connery
returned to his churge. you are that
man. SO besides whatever else that
means, you'd been in Seattle eleven
days ana yet you were the last person
to get aboard this train, which left q
full hour after its usual starting time.
Who were you waiting to see get on
the train before you yourself took it?'
Eaton wet his lips. To what vas
Connery working up? The probable
that in addition 10 the recognition Of
him as the man who had waited at
Warden's-which fact anyone at any
time might have charged-Connery
knew something else which the con
ductor could not have been expected
TO know-this .dismayed Eaton the
more by its Indebtedness. And he
saw, as his gaze shifted to Avery, that
Avery knew this thing also.
"What do you mean by that Ques-
tiOn!' he asked.
II mean that-however innocent or
guilty may be the chance Of your be-
ing at Mr.. Warden's the night he was
killed-you'll have a hard time prov
ing that you did not wait and watch
and take this train because Basil San
tome had taken it: and that you were
not following him. Do you deny it?'
Eaton was silent.
Connery, bringing the paper in his
hand nearer to the window again,
glanced down once more at the state
ment Eaton had made. II asked you
who you knew in Chicago" he said,
land you answered NO one That
was your reply, was it not?'
YES"
"You know no one in Chicago?"
"No one" Eaton repeated.
"And certainly no one there knows
you well enough to follow your
movements in relation to Mr.. San
tome. That's a necessary assumption
from the fact that you know no one
at all there"
The conductor pulled a telegram
from his pocket and handed 1t to
Avery, who, evidently having already
seen it, passed 1t on to Harriet San
tome. She took 1t, staring at it me-
chanically and vacantly; then sudden
ly she shivered, and the yellow paper
which she had read slipped from her
hand and futtered to the floor. Con-
merry stopped and picked it up and
handed it toward Eaton.
This Is yours" he said.

Harriet, not yet comprehending, stood
staring at the two; then Eaton saw
the blood rush to her face and dye
forehead and cheek and neck as she
understood.

Conductor Connery put his hand on
Eaton's arm. "Come with me, sir"
he commanded.
Eaton thought anxlously for a mo-
ment. He looked TO Harriet Santoine
as though about TO say something TO
her, but he did not speak instead, he
quietly followed the conductor. As
they passed through the observation
car into the car ahead, he heard the
footsteps Of Harriet Santoine and
Avery close behind him.

Donald Avery had come out upon the
platform and vas standing beside
him; and behind Avery he saw Con-
ductor Connery. There was no one
else on the platform.

cIvlTAN CLUB DEBATES
POLICY ON WORLD AFFAIRS

Consideration of a program of
participation in foreign affairs is
being given today by a committee of
the Civitan Club, following extensive
discussion on the subject at a din
ner meeting in the Lafayette Hotel
last night.
The committee is to report at the
Tuesday meeting. with recommends
tons. Delegates of the local club
to the International Civitan conven-
ton here next month will be &C.
cordingly instructed.
The action arose from the reading
of letter from International Presi-
dent O. B. Andrews. asking that the
foreign affairs program of the Chat
tanooga club be made a part of the
entire organization policy. James
Proctor moved that Washington del
egates be instructed to vote for such
a resolution, when presented to the
convention. Oliver Hoyem, however,
warned against hasty action. and
the matter went to the committee
for study. Clarence Harding pre-.
sided.

this year Buckles are plentiful
and of every design. Large Jet and

black satin or grossgrain ruche.
There are also ribbon buckles made
on dainty loops and knots. buckles
of leather like the slipper itself,
cut into fancy shapes, Rosettes
of ostrich plumes make buckles OF
brilliant hues.
One smart bother is making a
speciality OF original wooden buckles.
They are carved into fancy patterns.
