Jake Preus TeIIs Coolidge

Chills crept up CooIidge's neck
when his luncheon guest, Gov. lake
Preus of Minnesota, told him that he
was a political corpse. Jake was di-
plomatic about it, but Cal cot the
idea. Jake said that LaFoiiette. if
ne lived until November-the "oiled''
guard worries a lot about the health
OF LaF'ollette-would carry Minneso-
"a. North and South Dakota. Mon
tana, Nebraska, Colorado, and mavbe
Idaho and Iowa. That would beat
Coolidge, for the Democrats world
take all the doubtful territory.
At this cheerful meal. the Mime
sofa governor whom Magnus John
son beat by $4,000 in the special sen
atorial election last summer ex-
planned to Coolidge that the Germans
Swedes and Norwegians of the north
west are not pleased with the nro-
French and prO-militarist policy of
Huges and the Dawes commission on
the Rhur. Farmers are for LaFoI-
Iette anyhow, and so is the labor ell
ement. They will beat the repular
republicans and the Democrats, cas-
ly, in this territory, Jake Preus
Knows.

Some time ago, Mir. George was asked by an interviewer: What is your favorite amusement?' The novelist replied ''Loafing about a great city between midnight and dawn" His reason he gave as fol- lows: At night it is the unexpected happens The few people about you would be in bed, were it not for some unusual cause: love, purpose of crime, agony of apprehension, or black poverty. Lonely under the stars, these people seek company; they willingly confide in you; and even enlist you in their schemes" Thus Mir ". l.. George has wandered hundreds of nights in London, Paris, Barcelona, New York, Chicago. etc. He has participated in several ex- citing adventures, which he relates here, altering the names and details for the sake of his strange com panions of the night Three of these adventures actually happened to Mr. George: three are slightly amended. They make up the picture Of dark ness and passion which stands behind the face of every city, and represents a hidden world into which the daring can penetrate.

 I saw and reioiced at the knowl- edge that for this moment every thought save infinite pity and love for the orphaned children had fled her mind, but though l obeyed her command to hurry. my feet were leaden as I went downstairs. It was task I dreaded, this first greeting of children who in an instant's mo- tor crash had been bereft of mother, father and home.
 But my first glance at their faces showed that my fears Of having to deal with deep uncomfortable grief were without foundation. Sober. in- deed, the three older children were but when l furtively had scrutinized them and appraised their expression I found-and felt my throat con- stricting at the revelation---that it was not grief which saddened their faces, but that most terrible of all realizations-especially to children that one cannot feel grief---and that instead there is a guilty sense of re- lief from some burden long borne.

I smiled, for now the fox terrier,
 some little way off, was sitting down,
 wagging its tail vigorously: he had
 something in his mouth. The woman seemed in despair. She made helpless movement with her hands.
 Evidently she wanted to catch the dog: evidently, too. I must help her. I stepped out Of the archway, and, as l so did, pausing uncertainty, she turned to me and said, "oh, there you are, No. 5 mean No. 9. Do help me to catch this dog" I came forward, going toward the dog. No. g? Why did she call me No. g.? She must have expected me at this very spot. Meanwhile, I made att tractiye noises to the dog, who promptly danced about, full of ex- citement, making circles round both Of us: Why" I cried, "he's got a slipper in his mouth"
 ''of course he's got a slipper. It's my slipper. It dropped off as I got out of the taxi, and this this . this dog picked it up. And he won't give it me back"
 I strove to interest the dog, who joined in the game with enthusiasm. Meanwhile my mind was working: she had made a slip; she had called me No. 5, and only after that No. 9. That was because No. was occupy ing her brain. She must be No. s. Anyhow, I'd risk it. Ii wouldn't do any harm. So said. Tt was careless of you, No. s."
 T know it was" she said, sngrily. Perhaps we'd better not move for a minute. He might drop it."
 We watched the fox terrier for while. The girl asked why she had not seen me before and supposed I had drawn the lot by proxy. Mean while, after throwing us a glance of disappointment because we would not go on with the game, the fox terrier had now settled a little way off; far from leaving the slipper, he was beginning to eat it. Then I did a silly thing. Hoping to catch the dog unawares. I shouted and 1eaped toward him. He started up, alas, taking up the slipper. Nimbiy lodging me, he bolted into the arch way. ran into Shepherds market. f one moment I thought l had caught the creature, for l touched him, but he rushed between my legs. then into a corner where he left me, for when turned he had disappeared. Then, in the distance, we heard a clock strike the half hour. The woman made a desperate gesture: .Too lstei We cant go after him now"
 I was just going to suggest finding her taxi to drive her home, for getting the peculiarities of the case. when from the four corners Of shep- herds Market, detached themselves men. They were strange, foreign looking men, in ready-made clothes, except one, who, like ourselves. was dressed in fashionable garb. When they were quite close. the woman in a low tone remarked: NO. g."
 Then men were staring at'me. So determined to see this to the end. l NO. s.s

 number Of smaller dances, in the course of the night, removed them selves 10 Drimning House. while thirty or forty Of the guests brought with them the reinforcement of the complete dinner parties they had at- tended that night. Thus the ball was pandemonium. Things went pretty well up to midnight. but then the clothing increased. At first there was little room to go forward; then we grew reduced to turning round and round on the same spot: just be- fore o'clock, when I was partnering Lady Adeline, even this movement be- came impossible, and the ball re- solved itself into one vast throb under intense heat. We tried to step to the fashionable "waltz Me to Dream- land" but at last Lady Adeline in- formed me that she felt faint, which was not remarkable, and I fought my way in football style through black coats and low-cut frocks, destroying as l went, many yards of georgette and charmeuse.

 Hookie the Goblin laughed. Look here!" he cried as he. dragged the dilspidated Horloon to the window and threw him out. Don't he look as fiat as pan cake?"
 Yes he doesi" Rsggedy Ann said. And you should feel so ashamed of yourself you would so away some place and hide."
 Rsggedy Ann picked up the poor Hovloon. He was made of rubber. so when the Goblin had shipped him pith the scissors, all the air had come out Of the HoVioon and he had grown very fiat and sad looking. We will take him home and patch him right Up," Raggedy Ann said. Then we will return and try to think or a way to fool the Goblin and rescue our friends,"
 'I will run home and get the things to patch the Howloon!" fhe Gingerbread man said. You wait here so you can watch Hookie's house and see whether he tries 10 escapei"
 It only took Raggedy Ann a short time 10 put a patch on the Howloon, but before she did this. Raggedy Ann filled the Howloon with lots more candy covered cookies and Jolly pops. for the gingerbread man had thought 70 bring these along with the other things.
 'I wouldn't be Goblin for any thing" the Howloon said after Rag gedy Ann had blown him up with a bicycle pump and except for the patches was as good as new. Cob lins are surely goor for nothing" and Ragre5y Ann and her friends all agreed with the Hor1oon.
