Judge Carrigan Subject to a Draft

In the haunts OF men. where West Texas demo-
Gratis are In the picture. there Is talk OF drafting
Alfred II. Carrigan Of Wichita Falls for the state
senate tbs year. This may be interesting to Sen.
McFarlane. Judge Carrigan IS widely known. He Is
one or the builders OF the Wichita country.
He is not an office seeker, but those who are clus-
tering around the drafting side Of it say that north
Central Texas and the counties on the fringe OF
north Central Texas need an outstanding individual
10 represent their interests and Carrigan has been
picked as the man.
1t Is said there are 100000 qualified voters In the
territory west of Fort Worth and they have their
own program for the future. There Is q Southwest
Texas territory where the list Of qualified voters Is
very large. Political pot-shotting is going to be
real sport in the campaigns OF 1880.

CHAPTER IS
It was just such talk as this. Pat
amusedly confided to Rex one
moonlight night as they stood very
close together In a secluded place
on the top deck while the steamer
ploughed through the waters ada
cent to Bermuda-such talk as
this that frequently leads young
and romantic souls to the altar.
"Ah-h, the atari" repeated Rex
softly, the sentimental heart Of him
leaping at the connecting thought.
That word has a Tilt and a rhythm
that fairly sings Of romance. I've
always had a sort Of vague hope
that Id some day meet you and
'twould be the altar for u.s. How
about it?"
Il wonder" echoed Pat from q
spot close TO the place where he
wore his fountain pen. when he
wore a vest.
Back in New York, at police head
quarters, ii was learned that the
wireless report sent out by Banks,
OF the yachts sinking. had been
published BY the newspapers, with
the added news" that the Blue
birds new owner and her guests,
with the captain and first mate,
had gone down with the yacht.
The two prisoners. now under
government Jurisdiction. had been
taken from the fruit steamer
straight to jail. Pat and her friends
also learned from Sergeant Kelly
that Madame Leclerc and Jean
Bouchard were still among the
missing. No clue of any description
had the police obtained. either OF
them or of Herbert Maxwell. 1t was
just as If. to use the well worn
simile. "the earth had opened up
and swallowed them"
But when the returned voyagers
reached the Lynne home in Brook
lyn TO which Rex. being now. as
Jimmy expressed it. "one OF the
family-almost," accompanied him,
they were furnished with some in
formation By the chauffeur. Bill
Perkins, that stirred them into
quick action.
A man had come to him, Bill
said, three days before at the
garage over which Bill had his liv-
ing apartment. and inquired II Miss
Blair had returned home as yet.
He had. apparently. not seen the
newspaper report. Upon being told
that she had not yet returned the
man. who gave his name as William
Munson and said he had worked as
chauffeur for Herbert Maxwell.
told Perkins he had some very i'm
portant information for Miss Blair
regarding Madame Leclerc. He had
given Bill his telephone number
and had asked that Miss Blair call
him up as soon as possible. Bill
fished a slip of paper out Of a pocket
and handed it Pat.
"A chauffeur Of MaXwellsl' COM
mented Rex. glancing at the phone
number over Pats shoulder. And
he has important information re-
gard Madame Leclercl You'd bet
ter call him up. Pat" he advised.

The Once Over

PADLOCKING THE BIG HOTELS
Copyright, 1880, by The Associated Newspapers)

Before choosing a hotel In which to stop In a big
city you'd better inquire in advance and see II It's
padlocked.
Prohibition enforcement chiefs are now proceeding
against the big hotels and in New York the padlocking
OF several Of the largest hostelres Is threatened as a
means Of stopping the liquor traffic through bell
hops and porters.
This is a lot like stopping q leak in the kitchen
sink by removing ell the plumbing in the house.
-sss
The concern Of the hotel men is. however. nothing
as compared to the nervousness Of the tourists. No
guest wants to wake up in the morning to find he
can't get out Of the hotel because it has been pad
locked for two years.
A"0o Not Disturb" sign on your door may keep you
in a hotel room for the period OF federal court order.
II the padlocking drive Is carried through, q guest
may phone for breakfast in his room and get an ans
wer from q United States Marshal informing him
that he can't cook or run an elevator but VIII take
the matter up with washington and see If he can
get him a soft-boiled egg and a cup Of coffee by 1882
You may phone down to the desk to ask what
time It is and get a reply from a cop saying i ooh'
know; I'm a stranger here myself"
You may even call down for a bell-hop and get q
locksmith.
Nervous ladies are already looking under the notei
beds "a see II there is n Coast G~uardsnan, a Pro-
hibition Agent or a crusading bishop there It's AZ
highly unnerying.
How long do you expect to be with us?' asks the
hotel clerk on Manhattan Island these days

Everything depends on the government.

when they are to be used in making highballs. TINS
