Sandy Learns From Jimmie
Why Friends Stunned
House Warming.
CHAPTER 20

Sandy stepped into Tim
my's roadster, all her pulse:
aflutter. "Why shouldn't ~
she thought hotly. Weak.
ling! Am l afraid to call my
soul my own?" She tilteG
her head with a jaunty, de-
fiant laugh. She was nc
beaten dog to cover at the
fear Of Murillo's jealousy.
Yet her reluctance was great. Al
most as if a leaden hand caught heI
shoulder, pulled her back.
And the first thing she said Il
Jimmy was this: "Nice TO be of
on the sneak again with the dear de-
parted. Take the long way home
Jimmy. Let's go up over the old
ridges She said this tauntingly
but her mind worked feverishly. II
warned her to arrive home later
then Murillo would be draped on the
couch in the living room-aslep. il
she arrived there now he might b
in the garden or at the window. He
might see them.
Jimmy said seriously: do you
mean that. Sandy?"
"Of course, l do"
He swung the car about. climbing
upward over the curving road, leav'
ing the houses and the trees below
them. Then Sandy breathed more
easily. No one passing here; no on,
to see them. She felt light hearted
now, just as she did in those gypsy
hours when Jimmy hid in the grape
vines coming out from the shadow tC
grab her hand and give her that
swift, ardent kiss.
She looked at his blond, youthful
face, very sober now and determined
He was worricd-afraid Sandy should
not be doing this, perhaps.
She laughed: "Oh, it's quite nj
right. Jimmy, old thing. I'm moi
meaning to lead you astray. I'm ar
old, settled married lady and not 9
gay wench any more" ....
I'm not worried about myself
Sandy"
She touched his hand capriciously
"About me, then, Jimmy? About
me?"
His cheeks were red with discom.
fort. and she went on, teasing: "You
think ] shouldn't pass the time Of
day with an old love like yourself,
Timmy:"
He glanced at her pleadingly. And
suddenly she said: "Why didn't you
come to my housewarming? Why
did you all walk out on me. Jimmy
Did you know that not one of the
old crowd responded? You all gave
me the grand snub."
Jimmy took hot, chugging breath.
al wonder why you're talking like
that, Sandy? It's not like you to
STALL"
She was feverishly excited. A dry
holiness burned. her mouth. "Stall
What do you mean by that? None Of
you came"
None of us was invited"

mailed them myself"
Jimmy looked up at the hills, then
down at Sandy's flushed distracted
face. "Oh. why are you bothering
about it now. Sandy? | didn't care.
OF course, / wouldn't have gone
ANYWAY Gee IFS pood to 500 yo,

again. Did you hear about Lupie
Costai"
She would not be evaded. She said
in a low, impetuous tone. Didn't
you get a note from me, Timmy?"
"Yes-everyone got those notes."
"None OF you came. Why?"
"They all knew about the other in
vitations.
rs that the only reason? Please
tell me, Jimmy / was ter
ribly hurt about it,. You surely ought
to be friend enough TO tell me-"
She kept on urgently. Then she
made him stop the car, slipped her
hand over his: "Timmy-please. 1
must know this-I must!"
When she said this, her dark,
storming eyes. beseeching his, Tim
my gulped. Gee, Sandy, you make
il hard for n fellow 7"
She smiled at him winningly /:
"Like old times. Jimmy dear? Now
tell me-tell met"
He ran hand through his
smooth blond hair. He told her
with many frowns, many hesitations.
The day before the house warming
Heinie met Murillo on the street.
Murillo was very cordial. so Heinie
said "See You tomorrow night, Ben. T"
Murillo glanced at Heinie in as
constituent and asked: How is that 2"
Then Heinie said: well. aren't
you giving grand and glorious
shindig?"
"Why. no-I'm having my family
and few very intimate friends"
Heinie was rather staggered and
Numbered: Guess I'm one of the
intimates then. I've got sure
enough invite from Sandy"
Heinie said Murillo then gave him
the dirtiest look. There must be
some mistake!" turned on his heel
and walked off.
Heinie was 80 incensed that he
told everybody. Then they all knew
why their invitations came so late
and why they were written and the
others engraved. They knew they
weren't wanted.
Telling this Tmmy's face took on
drawn, anxious look. He covered
Sandy's hand with a troubled: 1--WE
knew. We just didn't want to make
it hard for You. Say-Sandy-
don't look somebody cared"
II cared, Jimmy. I cared great
come. You see-why-it's just that
Ben's different. He-well he didn't
mean a thing by that. He was just
surprised"
She tried to excuse him. Her lips
trembled pitifully.
Jimmy said.: Don't Sandy-please
don't. feel like this"
But she went on, relentless: 81
suppose Heinie told you about that
dinner at Tahoe?
"Yes. Heinie felt awful about that.
He was afraid you ran away on ac-
count of it,
IRAN away? oh, Jimmy! Jimmy,
who said ran away?"
"0h. / don't know-I thought
MONO! Tell me. do you all
know that. tooT
"Yes-Someone saw you get off the
train alone. There was talk. They
said you were going to sue for n di-
vorce."
Their eyes were fastened on each
others face.
Suddenly Sandy's became calm. a
smile TRANSPORTED the troubled mouth.
She looked off at the mountains, black
under the crystalline sky.
And she looked back with n serene
happiness at Jimmy. That's all past.
Jimmy. Don't be sorry for me. was
unhappy at first-terribly so. I'm not
now. l can't tell you just how it is
but / wouldn't give up things I've
got-not for the world. oh, mean it '
l really, really do"
She laughed: "And I see Ben in a
different light now. He's just a BIZ
hard to understand-that's all. Why
he'd be respondent if he thought he'd
offended Heinz"
Jimmy wac abashed by this

ALA NAz|MOVA
bARES TRAGEDY
Of HER LIFE
Admits Living With Bryant
for IA Years Although
Not Married.

HARTFORD, Conn, Dec. 5.-Cp
The Hartford Courant says today that
ALA Nazimova, tragedienne, has dis.
closed that although she and Charles
Bryant, formerly her leading man,
lived together for fourteen years as
man and wife, they never married.
The admission of shattered ro-
nance. apparently has been made to
save the man she loves from possible
prosecution for perjury and bigamy.
After Nazimova obtained a divorce
abroad from Russian whom she left
years ago, Bryant was married in
New Milford, Conn.,, last month to
Miss Marjorie Gilhooley of Elizabeth,
n. ].
TRAGEDIENNE SAD.
In applying for a license, he averred
he had never been married. Later
when it seemed he might face arrest
because it was thought he had been
married to Nazimova. Bryant insist
ed that his statement in getting q
license was correct.
In 1912, there was an announce.
ment in New York that Bryant and
Nazimova had been married.
HE spoke the TRUTH" Nazimova
told the Courant when asked if Bry-
ant was single when he married Miss
Gilhooley.
HUNTED LIKE CRIMINAL
what is there to say? Every
thing that can be said, has been said.
Why should the matter be stirred
up further? Mr.. Bryant did not
perjure himself. He is now hap
PLY married. Why bother with the
matter!
"All that has happened since Bry-
ant was married that day, has great
ly hurt me. I have been living at
the top of q volcano. l am worried
to death. For the last several days
| have been hunted like an aimal in
the woods. 1t hurts me to talk about
this matter. ] cannot talk about it.
What is it all except something to
worry a woman MORALLY to death. v

Marines Explain Disappearance
 Of UDWin'S Machine

The cases against John Martin of .513 East street and William Quigley of St. Paul, Minn,. were continued until tomorrow morning for disposi- .tion by Judge Benjamin W. filling in police court this morning to give the commanding officer of the Marine barracks at New London, where the young men are stationed, .an opportunity to appear and speak for them. They are charged with the burglary of an automobile from Ia garage in the rear of 125 Corbin avenue owned by Lawrence M. Un- win Of Al Corbin avenue.
 The men were in the city Thanks giving day and spent their time vis- iting friends about the city, thinking that an acquaintance on East street vas to take them back to New Lon don where they were due the follow ling morning. During the early part of the night they were visiting at the UnWin home, leaving about g o'clock to go to skating rink. After the place closed, they went to the Mar tin home and from there to the home of the young man who was go- ling to drive them to New Londan. They waited for him to return and when at 1:30 he had not come home, they became uneasy about getting back to New London In time, so they went to the Unwin home in hopes of getting Unwin to drive them back or lend his machine to them.
 They said they knocked at the door of the UnWin home, but not getting any answer, Martin, remem- bering that Unwin had told him that if he ever got stuck in the city he would be willing to do everything he could to get him back to the bar tracks, went to the garage and took the machine. They then went to the Martin home and brought Martins brother to New London with them to drive the car back. Just as they reached that city, one of the parts of the car broke and they were un- able to proceed.
 Unwin told the court that he and
 Martin have been friends for over
 two years and that if he knew who
 had the machine, he would not have
 reported 1t stolen, as he was willing
 for Martin to take it. Mrs. Unwin
 corroborated the story that the men
 had been to the house before taking
 the car, saying that she heard a
 noise about o'clock and shortly
 after she heard somebody going down the stairs and out. Attorney Thomas F. McDonough represented
 the marines.

Refuses to Honor La Toilette as Republican ''ReSular" at Once

Washington, Dec. 8 LP,-Failure SO far of a number of their party colleagues to fall in line with the plan of senate republican leaders to recognize without issue the repubh" canism of Senator-elect La Toilette of Wisconsin, is threatening to pro- duce some troubled waters for the party conference next Saturday
 Senator Butler of Massachusetts chairman of the republican national committee, is one Of those appar- ently still on the fence on the ques- ton of treating the Wisconsin sena- tor as a party regular in committee assignments and other matters. He has declined to commit himself however, further than 10 say that the matter is still one for consul tatior."
 Leaders who are endeavorng to submerga the issue include senator Curtis of Kansas. the majority floor leader, Senator Moses of New Hanp- shirt, president pro temper Of the senate, and Senator Jones of Wash ington, the republican whip" They have been joined by Senator Edge of New Jersey, who led the fight last wear to read four of the senate in surgents out of the party councils,
 With some senators insisting, how ever, that MT. La Follette's speeches In his recent campaign constituted attacks on the president and the re- publican party. Senator Watson Of Indiana, vice-chairman Of the con- ference, is still studying his cam paign utterances.
 Another Uncertainty
 Another uncertainty in the si'u- stion is whether Senator La Toilette will accept the formal invitation to attend the conference sent him yes terday by Chairman Curtis He has declined so far to indicate his in- tsntion,
 On the house side, while Repre- sentative Nelson, of Wisconsin, as snokesman for the insurgents there, savs they will not perfect a formal organization as they did two years ago, leaders of the group have not indicated their attitude on the pro- posal of speakerpcsignate Long worth that they be returned to the rartv councils if they support re- publican candidates for house otlces'
