"They are back the viscount.

Hand clasping hand they crept from

tavern whence they might peep down at
the road.
A horse cropped the grass before the
inn, while Immediately below the lat
tice wherefrom they peeped stood the
tall, unlovely figure Of Jonas Skag.
Sir Richard peered down, measuring
the distance with his eye and, squeezing
through the easement, had vanished
before Helen might stay him. She
heard hoarse cry, and, looking down,
beheld two forms that wrtihed and
twisted. Shrinking from the lat

For now, as they watched this rap

from the road and without checking his
wild career came galloping straight at
them.
"In-in wi ye!" cried the landlord.
All three tumbled into the taproom
pellmell but when they would have
shut the door there, up-rearing, was a
foam-flecked horse with mighty hoofs
lashing above the very threshold.
Then his rider was out of the saddle
and next moment the little dingy tap
room rang with the sounds of furious
combat, wild uproar that, suddenly
subsiding, gave place to silence. broken
only. by a voice that groaned and a
voice that gasped.

UP the dark and narrow stair.
"Helen!" he called, and was answered
by a cry wildly glad and eager.
Richard! Oh, Richard. pray-oh,
pray come to me! They've locked me
in. Oh. Richard!"
He backed away and hurled himself
against the door, yet thrice thus he bat
. tered the stout oak ere it swung wide.
And then. almost before he knew it,
she was in his arms. laughing and sob

tighter, and he was stroking this lovely
head that pillowed itself upon his rag

delightful humility
"Oh. Dick!" she sighed. "Oh, Dick

NEW DORM|TOR|ES
FOR WOMEN URGED
Blaine Would Amend Plaza
Improvement Bill to Give
Workers Home.

The prospect of completing legisla-
ton at this session for the extension
of the Capitol grounds to Union Station
became somewhat uncertain yesterday,
when Senator Blaine, Republican, of
Wisconsin, filed an amendment to the
measure in the Senate, proposing a
$5000,0 bond issue for the erection
of new dormitorieS for women employees
of the Government to replace the
temporary hotels on the plaza.
The plaza improvement bill, which
has passed the House, was reached on
the Senate calendar yesterday after
noon, and. after objection had been
made to its immediate consideration,
Senator Blaine presented his amend
ment. The bill and the amendment
were laid aside for later consideration.
The Blaine amendment would author
lze the Secretary of Labor to construct
new dormitorieS within a radius of one
mile of the Treasury Building to ac-
commodate from 1900 to $500 woman
employees of the Government. The
rentals would be applied to retire the
bond issue and cover operating ex-
penSes. Any proceeds resulting from the
removal of the temporary wartime
structures on the plaza would go into
the fund for the new dormitorieS.
Plans for the Identification of the
area between the Capitol and the Union
Station have been under consideration
for a number of years, and at the last
session the House passed the authorize
ton for proposed landscaping of the
area. The proposed amendment. how
ever, is likely to lead to extended dis
cussion of the measure in the Senate.
If the bill is not enacted by March 4
it would have to be reintroduced in the
House.

BANDITS CAPTURE
u. S. MISSIONARY
Stern RepriSaI Is Demanded
of Chinese Government
by America.

Strong representations are to be sent
immediately to the new Nationalist
Government of China demanding the
employment of whatever military meas
ures are necessary to bring about the
release of Rev. Edward Young, a men,
Der of the American Catholic Mission in
china, who was captured by Chinese
Communist bandits January % and is
being held for $4,000 ransom.
Ofhcial confirmation of the Ameri-
can miSSionary'S capture was received
yesterday by the Department of State in
q dispatch from Frank p. Lockhart,
American consul general at Hankow.
Mr.. Lockhart reported he had received
a telegram from Bishop O'Shea, head
CT the Catholic Mission. stating that
the Rev. Mr.. Young had been taken
prisoner at Nananfu, Kiangsi.
Death Threat Feared.
The Communist bandit leaders who
hold the missionary captive are Chu
Teh and Mao Chih Tung, reported to
be two of the most desperate and dar-
ing bandit leaders in China. Grave
fears are felt that if the 100000 ransom
they have demanded is not paid they
VIII HOt Ilto4IdCS W pun HAtO CAcSt
threat to kill their prisoner. They have
given friends of the American three
days to pay the ransom, which amounts
to $4,000 in gold.
Mr.. Lockhart informed the Depart
ment of State that he had made direct
representations to Nanchang urging i'm
mediate action to effect Rev. Mr..
Young's release. In addition. John Van
A. MacMurray, American Minister at
Feking. has instructed Mahlon F. Per-
kins, counselor Of the legation, who
now is in Marking, to personally visit
the Nationalist minister of foreign al
fairs, G. T. Wang, and request the Ma
tionalist government to take whatever
steps are necessary to insure the Amer
lean missionary's release without delay.
Military ReprisaI Dangerous.
Fear was felt at the Department of
State that if the Nationalist govern
ment resorts to military measures
against the bandits, they might execute
their prisoner and retire arther into
the hills of KiangSi, where they would
be perfectly safe from disturbance
unless a large and well equipped mill
tary expedition were sent against them.
If necessary. the United States Govern
ment will not hesitate to demand that
the new Chinese government pay the
ransom price to insure Rev. Mr.. Youngs
safety and then employ martial punish
ment against the bandits.
Although the kidnapping of American
missionaries and American travellers by
Chinese bandits is not new. this is the
first to occur since the United States
formally recognized the Nationalist gov
eminent. State Department officials
are watching with keen interest, there
fore, to see how theoretically the new
government will work for the release of
the missionary and his safe return.
