and you think you don't care for
him.
Il don't. Mother. I hate him to
touch me"
Suddenly Mrs. Bayne was, more
calm. She appraised Holly with her
faded, worldly eyes.
oh" she said. 80 that's it.
Don't You know every girl has a fit
of panic before her wedding day? IT
that's all that's wrong with you--"
But the days anxieties and this
shock had told on her. She leaned
back in her chair.
Get me my smelling salts" she
said. Il feel as though / can't
breathe
Holly brought the salts, and Mrs
Bayne inhaled them, holding the
bottle delicately to her nose. Holly
stood by her, helpless. She knew
these attacks; Margaret had always
maintained that they were temper,
but she knew better now. The doctor
had told her. So she watched her
with the salts, and any hope she had

his terrible situation died within her
She turned down the bed and

familiar homely duties kept her

1t was while she was Strengthening
her mothers dressing table that she
saw another telegram lying there.
She picked 1t up and read tread it
twice, with Mrs. Baynes eyes on her.
"You see, mother" she said, "he
is really ill, if he can't travel"
Mrs. Bayne was propped up in bed.
The reading lamp sent a soft rosy
glow over her, making her look
younger, almost childish.
ooh, yes" she said. IT forgot to
give you that. 1t gives US a chance
to breathe, anyhow"
Holly turned out the other lights
and raised a window. She stood
there, inhaling the cold night air.

II guess that's about it, said
James Cox humbly
And Holly had ignored Margarst's
warning glance and thrown her hat
into the ring.
How do you know my mother
sold the bond?" she demanded.

A + six o'clock Holly came home.
" She dragged herself up the
a steps and stood there to COM
4 a pose herself, but Mrs. Bayne's
sharp ears had heard her, and
she flung the door wide.
We'll, / must say" she said, with
asperity. Didn't you know Furness
was coming?"
Il couldn't make it any sooner"
"But where have you been?"
"With Aunt Margaret"
She looked fairly extinguished, her
eyes dull, her face colorless. The
smile. she managed to summon made
her look appealingly childish; and
Furness took advantage of her lack
of resistance to put an arm around
her
You come in and sit down" he
said authoritatively. That's the girl.
Now put your head back, and I'll
get some tea"
Mrs. Bayne went up the stairs,
tight-lipped, considerably shaken.
Strange thoughts had BEEN running
through her mind, strange and ter
rifying thoughts. But that was all
over now. Holly had been upset by
the telegram and had gone to
Margaret. She had always gone to
Margaret, when in trouble.
All over-unless Holly had got
some nonsense into her head about
marrying Furness. He had seemed

Cheap Appeal for

CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-The
pre-battle atmosphere Of the
worlds heavyweight cham
pionship spectacle, billed for
next Thursday at Soldiers
Field, was enlivened today
with the publication in the
Chicago Herald Of a 'copv-
righted open letter under
Jack Dempsey's SIGNATURE
challenging Gene Tunney to
answer a series of questions
about asserted events lead
ing UP to the fight last Sep,
TENDER at Philadelphia in
which Dempsey lost the
heavyweight crown.
the newspaper story, which
quotes Dempsey as suggesting
the fight may have been framed,
asks Tunney to reveal "all angles
involved in suit which Max
Boo Boo Hoff of Philadelphia.
fired at you," and explain why
a lot of gamblers made q huge
betting plunge on you to win the
fight after you, Hoff, and Billy
Gibson, your manager, had one
of those conferences.
Appeal for Sympathy
In reply to the letter and
newspaper article, the champion
has wired Dempsey saying: my
reaction is to ignore it as a
cheap appeal for public SYM
pathy. Do you think this is
sportsmanlike?"
High lights IN Dempsey's open
letter are: The receipt of a ''tip"
by Jack on the eve of the Phila-
delphia fight to the effect that
there was something phoney''
about it, and that he was told
some sort of deal had been
made whereby somebody was 60
ing to steal my title"
Money Agreement Made
The letter also asks why Man
ager Gibson entered into an
agreement with Hon to borrow
$4,000 on the understanding
that this amount would be paid
back ii Tunney lost, but if Tun-
ney won "Gibson would pay back
to Hoff the $4,000, and as a
sort of a bonus you, (Tunney) i.
were to give Hoff 20 per cent
OF all your earnings as cham
pion."
The letter describes Hoff as a
boxing fan and political power
in Philadelphia.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10. A
dream that had its inception
back in 1915 was realized today
when a caravan of airplanes
started westward from New York
in the first National Air Derby.
Before the event is concluded
on September 81 the racing
planes will have spanned the
continent, from Roosevelt Field,
L. l., to the finish line in Spo-
kane, Wash.
Proposed in 1915
Tentative plans for an air der
by proposed IL years ago. had
to be abandoned when many OF
the military planes that would
have been the mainstay Of the
contest were required on the
Mexican border. The situation
was little changed in TIL. next
year, and in 1917 came the war.
Last year saw the onto Phila-
delphia sesQuicentennial race.
Significant Of the onward sweep
of commercial aviation Is the fact
that this first air derby is not
dependent upon the entries of
military planes. In fact, the twl.
classes into which the event is
divided permitted only Of the en-
try of machines Of the CONNER
cial type.
Glass A is for large planes
capable of carrying two passen-
gers besides the pilot. Glass B is
for planes capable Of carrying
one passenger besides the pilot
The conditions OF the fight are
made to conform as far as pos
sible to the conditions of COM
,nercial navigation.
At about the same time an
other event. the Pacific Coast Air
Derby, was to have started II
group OF planes winging north
ward from San Francisco to Spo
kane. This race is also for COM
mercial planes and Is similarly
divided into two classes.
Prizes aggregating &28,25O are
offered by the National Air Der
by Association In the transcon-
tinental flights. Prizes Of $1,000
will go to the leading planes In
West Coast CONTESTS.
