did not know what that stride had
been, or what was coming now when
her father saw Eaton.
She went on slowly down the stairs,
and when halfway down, she saw Ea-
ton in the halr below her. He was
standing beside the table which held
the bronze antique vase; he seemed
TO have taken something from the
vase and to be examining it. She
halted again TO watch him; then she
went on, and he turned at the sound
OF her footsteps. She could see, as
she approached him, what he had
taken from the vase, but she attached
no Importance to it; it was only a
black button from woman's glove
one of her own, perhaps, which she
had dropped without noticing. He
tossed it indifferently toward the open
fireplace as he came toward her.
Father wants to see you. Mr..
Eaton" she said.
He looked at her intent.y for ar
instant and seemed to detect some
strangeness In her manner and to
draw himself together; then he fol-
lowed her up the stairs.

1.-THE results Of this census directly

is an organized movement afoot among
certain employing interests to repeal
the present 3 per cent act for limit

scarcity of labor. The American Lee
gion wants to bring the true condi-
ton Of affairs before the country. We
are not alarmists, but we do not feel
that the true business interests of the
country will be forwarded by bringing
in all the cheap foreign labor that Eu-
rope can supply. We want to see
American industries manned by Amer

obtain a court ruling granting the
residue Of war chest funds to the Lee
gion.
His most remarkable victory was
the recent ruling of the Ohio Court of
Appeals, awarding a fund Of $4,000,
collected during the war to supply
comforts for the men of the Eighty
third division, to the Legion.
The court ruled that the Legion Is
the one representative organization Of
veterans of the World war and that
comforts belonging to the men who
served should come properly to them
in their present organization. "As the
G.. A. R. is to the Civil war, so the
American Legion Is and will be the
outstanding military organization rep
resenting the ex-soldiers Of the World
war;" the opinion of the court stated.
Mr.. Bettman has started a. member
ship campaign in Ohio with a goal of
10000 Legionnaires. Ohio posts will
have exceptional inducements to beat
the bushes for new members, since the
war chest fund awarded by the Court
of Appeals will be distributed among
the posts on a basis of membership
on July /.
The Ohio Legion head was warm

braith, Jr., and is chairman Of Legion

memorial to the former Legion leader

the attack on me to the more success
full attack on Warden, twelve days
previous, which had caused his death.
The method of the two attacks was
the same; the conditions surrounding
them were very similar The des-
perate nature of the two attacks, and
their almost identical method, made
it practically certain that they origi-
mated at the same source and We're
carried probability the same
hand and for the same purpo;e.
Mrs. Warden's statement TO me of
her interview with her husband a
half-hour before his murder made it
certain that the object of the attack
on him was to remove him. 1t
seemed almost inevitable. therefore,
that the attack on me must have been
for the same purpose.
Il found that young man-your-
self-had acted so suspiciously both
before and after the attack on me

convinced that he was my assailant,
