II see. Rotten luck. poor darling
1 was exhausted. l can't see him
anyway. 1 suppose? Come along,
I'll take you in my car"
But Joan wouldn't leave until she
learned that Sheila wasn't allowed in
to see him. He was sleeping and in
| no condition to see anyone.
In Sheila'S car Joan went to
pieces. The strain under which she
had been working. the shock of
Julian's collapse followed by a sleep
less night were too much for her.
"How can you take it so heart
lesslyl How can you be so cruel!
He loves you. He adores you and
he's dying and you don't even carel"
she stormed. splitting over and say
ing some things she had no right to
say.
I'm not taking it heartlessly,
Joan. You don't know what you're
saying. You're overwrought and
half in love with him yourself. And
I shouldn't be surprised if he's in
love with YOU"
''He isn'tl He told me himself
that he's in love with you." which
wasn't quite the truth but Joan
didn't know what she was saying.
land 1 love someone else. Someone
who Is married to another girl. Oh.
take me home!"
Julian told you he was in love
with me? I can't stand it. Joan. I
tell you, 1 can't stand it'll I've got
my hands full with that mad French
man and now Julian ;"
Joan slept for 10 hours and when
she woke up they told her that
Julian was slightly improved". She
went straight back to exhausted
sleep again. She needed it because
she had full weeks ahead of her.
She had the reins of the household
and his business affairs to control in
her small hands and she ran both
jobs. AT last she was allowed to
see him.
She came in glowing with happi-
ness to tell him that he had realized
his dream. Julian was so weak she
could hardly talk to him without
lump coming into her throat.
But the weeks went by and daily
he was growing stronger For two
hours day she worked with him in
the hospital and the day was draw
ing near when he would be allowed
to go home.
Were all going to have a trip"
he promised her. "WeIl take a boat
south, you and Mrs. Henderson and
I. A vacation for her and work and
play for us. I'm not needed in New
York. Sheila will carry the play"
They were good days to look for
ward to. Or so Joan thought. little
realizing that the drama Of their
lives was drawing to a climax.

Powell Says Club Needs
One Victory to Cop First
Half Honors

According to the standing ladder
released today by Skipper Ed Powell
of the Henderson Tobacconists, the
local ball club needs but one more vic
tory to cop the first half bunting in
the Virginia-Carolina league.
Games tomorrow in the circuit will
find Henderson at Townsville, Clarks-
vile at Oxford and South Hill at Glow
er.
Disagreement among the ball play
ers cost Henderson one of the three
losses chall1ed up against the team,
having to forfeit a game to Clover
The club had not been fully reor-
ganized when it dropped the other
games.
Powell has assembled a winning
combination about him, and expects
to cop the league flag.

library waiting for Mrs. Henderson
She must have dozed for it was
dawn when the doorbel pealed
through the house with deafenine
sound amid it's silence.
1t was Mrs. Henderson, haggarc
and red-eyed from crying.
The two women who were Julian's
employees stood for a moment COM
forting each other. Mrs. Henderson
was incoherent and Joan's nerves
were jangling with anxiety.

They operated at once but they
won't know yet. Joan. Oh, my poor
boy!" Joan comforted her as best
she could and finally convinced her
that she would be needed only after
she got some sleep.
But for Joan there was none. It
was scarcely eight o'clock in the
morning when she arrived at the
Doctors hospital. There was no
word for her-"the patient was
sleeping and resting comfortably"
but there was no assurance.
All that morning, aching in every
bone and taut in every nerve. she
sat in the hospital corridor.
She went out at noon to get some
thing to eat and took up her watch
again. "There isn't anything you
can do" DR.. Holbrook said. Go
home. Miss Spencer. and take care
Of things there"
Doctor, will you please tell him
as soon as you can that his play is
going to be a great success?" The
doctor promised her and she had to
be content. She was leaving when
Sheila arrived.
"How Is he, Joan?"
Joan's eyes filed with tears.

the lowest step of the stairs, dreading
to go above not knowing what she

dreadful thing!
There was a sound in the silence.
IL came from below. For one awful
moment Joan's heart stood still.
She was alone in the house!
"Who is it?" her voice rose to a
frightened screech.
"Kobe, Miss JOAN" the buffers
voice came from below.
Weakly she sat down again.
Come up" she said, and could
hardly hear her voice. She felt as
though every drop Of blood had been
drained from her. Her limbs trem-
bled and when Kobe. in dripping wet

"He applied the culture of the past
to the needs and life of the Ameri-

tory Spurred him to inquire into the
reason and justice of laws, habits and
Institutions. His passion for liberty
led him to interpret and adapt them
in order to better the lot of mankind.
"Shortly before taking office as
President of the United States he
wrote to a friend Il have sworn on
the altar of Cod eternal hostility

JEFFERSON
Thomas Jefferson, in his own age,
was attacked as no other American
has been attacked for his ideas and
ideals, now looked upon as the basis
of democracy. President Roosevelt
may desire, by quoting jefferson, to
draw an analogy.
A revealing paragraph on Jeffer-
son is contained in 1.-THE Rise of
American Civilization" by Charles
A. and Mary r. Beard:
eff reason was to be the guide in
politics, religion and education, it
followed that freedom of press and
speed must be an essential element
in the human scheme of things. This
Theory Jefferson also carried to it's
logical conclusions; utterly rejecting
the tyrant's plea that liberty can be
hest protected by beating down lie
entiousness,' he went the whole
length in asserting that the govern
ment should not interfere with the
expression of opinion until it merged

In my annual outlook letter last
December, I forecast that business
during the early months of this year
would be eight percent better than
the first half of 1886. AS final figures
for the period cross my desk. find
that my estimate was conservative
The actual gain has been 13 per cent.
There are many reasons to believe
that we will cross this normal line this
fall. In fact, I am just as bullish to-
day on the second half of 1886 as I
was last December. At that time I
forecast that the closing months Of
this year would bring a spectacular
gain over the same period of 1885 if
the building and automobile indus
tries made good progress during the
spring.
Tremendous Markets.
My bullishness is based largely on
the great possibilities for industrial
growth in North America. The defer
red demand of the past seven years
Tor machinery, construction and the
like is estimated at $4,000, 900. While
plants have been shut down or run
nlng on a half-shift, decay and wear
and tear have been silently creating
a huge market for new goods and ma
chinery. Statisticians figure that it
will take close to $15,OOO,OOO,OOO to put
American factories back on an eff
cient operating basis. Total deferred
construction adds up to $4,000, O0O,-
OOO Also, fifty per cent, if not more,
of our present railroad equipment is
obsolete, involving several more bill
lions of replacement demand.
Another important factor in the
Coming American Boom" is the ire
mendous opportunity for growth of
new industries. Air-conditioning pre-

RULES POSTED
FOR BICYcLISTS
Members of the Bicycle Safety
Organization to be Quizzed
on Rules Saturday.

At the organization of truck drivers
and bicycle riders certain rules were
promulgated by the safety committee
Of the city. An examination on the
rules will be held Saturday by Douglas
NankerviS, chief of police.
Those passing the examination will
be given check of either card or
metal and those who violate the rules
will lose the check and perhaps have
their wheels tied up for an indefinite
period. Besides the getting and dis
playing of the check, bicycle riders will
be expected to report at specified times.
Those having a check are also ex-
pected to act as a curb on all bicycle
riders and report infractions of the
rules, acting as a closed corporation in
behalf Of the safety of fellow riders.
The rules upon which they will be
examined Saturday are ten in number.
These rules cover all phases of bicycling
and are as follows:
l. Keep to the right close to the curb.
It is much safer to ride close TO the
curb and let automobiles overtake YOU
on the left than it is to try to ride your
bicycle in a line of moving automobiles.
Keeping clear TO the right gives the
driver Of the car behind a chance to
swerve out Of the way in case the bi-
cyclist ahead of him has a mishap.
Turn out when you hear a horn.
2. Give arm signals when you stop

Supervisor Harmon Here
Overseeing the Test
of Machines.
NOT AS SPECIFIED
Arsenate of Lead Mixed
With Water and Oil
Being Used.

Ray .. Harmon, supervisor Of the
Superior National Forest, is in the city
experimenting the assembling of the
spraying machines calculated to min
iulize the inroadS of the army worm, or
tent caterpillar by which the pest is
particularly classified, and which is
very numerous at the present time.
A machine was assembled and tested
at Sandy Point yesterday and while it
did work claimed for it, Supervisor
Harmon is not satisfied and according
TO reports claims the machines are not
up to specifications demanded by the
government, inaSmuch as they are Of
less power than specified and instead
of furnishing 600 to $50 pound pres
sure, are only capable Of furnishing a
400 pound pressure.
The machines are the Hardie Spray
ing Machine and are being given a
thorough test. A representative of the
company will be here today to place
the machines in working order and help
in the test, prepared to correct any de-
ficiencies and guarantee their salts
factory operation.
The spray being used is composed of
u pounds Of arsenate of lead, mixed
with 400 gallons of water and one and
one-haf quarts Of linseed oil The
spraying is in charge Of Ranger Adams
OF the Halfway station and up to date
enough orders have been received to
keep the forces assisting Ranger Adams
and composed of CCC boys busy for
some time
Three spraying machines have been
received here. Only one has been un-
packed and set up for the test. The
machines are destined for Burnside
lake; Bear Island lake and the Stoney
district; the Fernberg and Moose lake
district. Two machines have also been
furnished for the Grand Marais dis
trict; one for the Crane Lake; one for
the Vermilion district and one for the
Cass Lake district of the Superior Ma
tional Forest.
It IS expected that under the efficient
supervision Of the factory representative
here today, the machines will prove all
that is claimed for them and that the
work Of checking the worm pest will
get under way with satisfactory re-
suits.

Pete house boats.
Mr.. Erickson, through whose efforts

June II and enjoy a few days fishing
on Eastwood before the Festival on
Sunday, June q, at which he will be
the principal speaker. In fact, Mr..
Erickson states that he has received the
personal guarantee of Mr.. Hurja that
he will be here on the dates specified.
He will leave Washington by auto on
June Is for Detroit. From there he
will drive to Crystal Falls to spend a
day at his home town with his mother.
He arrives in Duluth on the 17th and
from there comes direct to Ely for the
fishing trip and his address at the
Festival.
Following his address at Sandy Point,
Mr. Hurja will drive with Mr.. Erickson
to Minneapolis where he will board a
plane for Philadelphia where he will
arrive on Monday before the opening
of the National Democratic Convention
in which he will have prominent
part.
