had gone straight to her tethered
horse and ridden away. Armitage!
She had heard Parson Kennedy roar
out that name
Armitage with Parson Kennedy!
Armitage one of the eleven? 1t was
not possible. There had been nothing
in his attitude to suggest that he had
recognized her She was dressed al
most exactly as she had been that
night in Richmond.
Armitage was purely an outsider;
and this conviction afforded her great
relief.
That ParsOn Kennedy had spoken
her name did not alarm her. She
knew that he had but taket a chance
shot in the dark.
Why should he hate her whom he
had wronged?
She entered Washington. She had
sworn to run these men down.
Two days later Armitage called up
on Alice Trent. They were to go
out riding. 1t was a glorious Sep
TENDER day, mild and sunny.
"How Is it that you are not with
those beloved troopers of yours"
"Oh, for the present am aide to
one of the chiefs. 1t Is my business
to see that fresh troops are promptly
entrained, that the recruiting officers
are not permitted to get into the dol
drums and sometimes I draw or copy
maps. BY the way, did you witness
the riots in Baltimore at the beginning
of the war;

General Armitage your father, by any
chance?"
"He is-and the finest old chap in
the world too He's Just a man, but
something of a martinez; and to tell
the truth, I'm rather afraid of him.
You see, my company is among his
troops, in the old regiment he was
in command of before his promotion;
and he's an idea that, when I'm
around, / should do double turn so
that no one could accuse him Of show
in favoritism. The boys in irony call
me the old mans pet. Lord, how he
makes me grind. But I like It,"

"Why shouldn't you ask me? But
I'd rather not talk of them"
Armitage had unwittingly opened
the secret door. She was Jeanne
Beaufort once more, with thousand
dollar reward for her, dead or alive"
What was it? Why could she not
play with this Yankee as she had
played with others? What subtle bar
rier was it that blocked each impulse
as it was forming? Was it because
he was virile, good to look at, frank
and pleasant? Or was it because the
heat of her hatred for Northerners
had abated, and that she, naturally
honest and direct, despising hypocrisy,
was beginning to weary of this game
in which hypocrisy was the chief es-
sential? She was cropping blind
alley.
After the ride she gave him tea;
but the zest had gone out Of every
thing. She hated herself, Morgan,
Armitage-hated the world.

WASHINGTON, d. C.-Another
Red plot has been discovered by Sec
rotary Kellogg, according to anthem
tic information received by your cor
respondent today.
Diplomatic circles were stirred by
the report that agents of Moscow are
responsible for the New York sub
way jams. This information was
conveyed to G-2 Headquarters at
Governors Island with the request
that the army's gumshoe experts
watch all wsarers of red neckties and
all subscribers to The d ALLY

thought to be responsible for anti
CMTC propaganda.
Other bulletins given out by the
state department today made such an
impression that several newspaper
correspondents were rushed to Walter

brought on by prolonged laughter.

had been affected, and as to that
only time could tell. They must
keep the patient quiet.
There was a private hospital in
the town; so before long Paul was
lying on a bed, with a bandage
over his eye, and his head in a
sling to avoid pressure on the in
jured place; and Bunny and Rachel
were sitting by the bedside, gazing
mournfully. Womanlike, Rachel
was reading his thoughts. "Dear
heart, are you going to blame your
self all your life because you
didn't rush in and get your skull
broken, too?" No, he couldn't have
prevented the harm, he knew it;
but oh, why did it have to be Paups
brain-the. best brain that Bunny
had ever known! He sat with a
mortified, brooding stare.
But there was another ordeal to
be faced. Rachel reminded him,

fered to attend to it, to spare his
feelings. She got her brother ia
cob on the phone-he had Just got
home from committee meeting,
and now he must call a taxi, and
drive to Ruth's home and bring her
to the harbor.
Two hours later Ruth came run
ming up the stairs, her face like
mask of fright. "How is he? How
is he?" When she entered the
room, and saw Paul, she stopped.
ooh, what is it," And when they
told her-"Is he going to live 2"
She drew nearer, never taking her
eyes off his face. Her hands would
stretch out to him, and then draw
back, because she might not touch
him; they would go out again, as
if they had a will of their own.
Suddenly her knees gave way, and
she sank to the floor, and covered
her face with her hands, sobbing,
sobbing.
Aney tried TO comfort her, but
she hardly knew they were there.
She was alone, in the dreadful cor
riders of grief. Bunny, watching
her, felt hot tears stealing down
his cheeks. 1t wasn't natural for
a girl to feel that way about
brother, Wee had said; but Bunny
knew how it was-Ruth was back
in those childhood days on the lone
ly hills of Paradise, when Paul had
been her only friend, a refuge from
a family of fanatics, with a father
who beat her to make her think
like him. Back there she had
known that Paul was a great man.
and had followed him all these
years; she had watched his mind
unfolding, and learned everything
she knew from it-and now, to see
it destroyed by brute with piece
of iron pipe!

What was the meaning of this
raid? According to the news
papers, it was the patriotic indig-
nation of sailors from the fleet.
There had been an explosion on one
of the battleships, and several men
had been killed, and the newspapers
had printed story that one of the
wobblies had been heard to laugh
with satisfaction. It is an ancient
device of the master press. In old
Russia the "Black Hundreds" were
melted by tales of ritual murders"
committed by the Jews, Christian
babies killed for sacrifice. In Bri-
tain now the government was forg-
ing letters attributed to the Soviet
leaders, and using them to carry an
election. In America the deporta-
ton delirium had been sanctified by
a great collection Of forged docu-
ments, officially endorsed.
1t was a spontaneous mob, said
these law and order newspapers.
But this fact was noted; on all
other occasions there had been po-
licemen at these wobbly meetings,
to take note of criminal utterances;
but this night there had been no
policemen on hand. Nor were there
any afterwards; Bunny and the
other "reds" might besiege the po-
lice department and the city gov
eminent, and offer the names of
the principal mob leaders, but there
would be no step taken to punish
anyone for this murderous raidl
Bunny didn't expect to find Paul,
but there he lay, flat on his back,
with several people bending over
him. His left eye was a mass of
blood, and seemed as if destroyed
by blow; he lay, limp and motion
less, and when Bunny called his
name he did not answer. But he
was alive, gasping with kind of
snoring sound.
A doctor! A doctor There were
several in the neighborhood, and
people rushed away to look for
them. From the days of Bunny's
residence in Beach City he knew
the name of surgeon, and hur-
ried to phone, and was so for
tunate as to find the surgeon at
home. Bunny told what had hap
pened, and the other said he would
come at once; in the case of injury
to skull or other bones, X-ray pic
lures would be needed, so he gave
the name of doctors who did such
work, and Bunny did more tele-
phoning, and arranged for one of
these to be at his laboratory and
await developments. Also he or
dered an ambulance from a hospi-
tai.
Then back to the hall, where
Paul lay in the same condition.
Rachel had laid a clean handker-
chief over the battered eye, and
put a pillow under his head. The
other victims had been carried
away, and the door of the wrecked
hall shut against the curious crowd.
The surgeon came, and said it
was concussion of the brain. There
was evidence of a heavy blow at
the base of the slSull-either Paul
had been struck in the eye, and
had hit the back of his head in
falling, or else he had been knocked
down by a blow from behind, and
later struck or trampled over the
eye. The first thing was a pic
ture; so the unconscious body was
taken to the X-ray laboratory, and
pictures were made, and the sur
geon showed Bunny and Rachel the
line of fracture at the base Of
the skull, running to the front
above the oral cavity. There was
nothing to be done, it was impos-
sible to operate in such place.
1t was question of how the brain
