1t is known, of course, that Mr..
Hoey is personal and political dry
and has been a believer in and pro-
ponent of prohibition for years. On
the other hand, Mr.. Hoey is under
stood to have intimated at various
times that prohibition has not proved
successful in North Carolina, espe-
cially since the repeal of the eight
eenth amendment and that a strict
system of liquor control which would
regulate sales and discourage boot
Logging might be preferable to con-
ditions as they now are in most of the
dry counties Since the Democratic
platform is regarded being wide
open on the liquor question, it is be-
lieved that Mr.. Hoey will not oppose
anything the 1887 General Assembly
NAVE decide to do with regard to IL
quor control
There is no doubt, however, that
Mr.. Hoey wants the General Assembly
to deal with the liquor question as
speedily as possible and that he has
expressed the belief it will do so. 1t is
understood that Mr.. Hoey already is
convinced a majority of the members
of both houses favor some form of Ii
uuor control rather than a continual
ton of prohibition and that the only
thing necessary is for these to agree
on a definite program and bill and

CHAPTER 80

IN A. BLACh evening gown,
Lady severinge was still a very
beautiful woman. Her pure white
skin and clear complexion would
nave done credit to a young girl.
and her fine eyes still retained
much of the brilliance that had at
tracted Sir Henry when she was a
young girl.
Selden observed it all after the
pleasant dinner James had served
and as he urged Lady Severinge to
take him into her confidence, to
tell him what she knew.
What particularly do you wish
to know?" she asked Selden.
Nothing that you don't wish to
tell; but your late husband led a
queer wandering life, didn't he,
before he returned to this place 2"
He never told me-" she said
with relief, fearing more intimate
questions. He limited at times
that he had been all over the
world, and l never could under
stand his attitude towards
james"
Il think l can understand that"
Selden said. They had been to-
gether for many years, and were
more like friends than master and
servant" He leant forward and
emphasized his words with his
cigar. Let me tell you, Lady
Severinge, James is better friend
to you than you know-I am fully
aware of the position, and it must
be awkward for both Of you, but
remember that for years James
has been occupying a mental posi-
ton deliberately, and has never
presumed on it. Have you ever
stopped 70 inquire what the reason
may have been ?"
Il can't say that I have-I am
afraid we have never hit it off to-
gether. l suppose because, as you
say, he was my husbands friend.
and"-she paused and a strained
look came to her face-"he OBJ
jected TO our marriage from the
first"
Perhaps there were others. into
which l don't propose to enter. to
which he also objected" Selden
said sternly.
Hildas eyes flashed, and then
she dropped her gaze from his
face and flushed with shame.
i am sorry to have to bring
that up, and I shan't mention It |
again, but it is vital to the prob
lem l am Investigating. We have
wandered from the point. 1 asked
you whether you had guessed why
James occupied this peculiar posi-
ton. Don't you think it likely
that he did so to watch over Sir
Henry, and to try to prevent the
very disaster that occurred?"
Hilda started; several obscure
points were suddenly clarified.
But from whom? Where was the
danger? You don't think that
IF I did, should hardly be
talking to you in this way, Lady
Severinge. But that is not to say
hat James may not have sus-
oicions of you."
And Eric has suspicious of
James," she blurted out before she
hought-the words were an ex-
PRESTON of what was passing in

guess-James must have found the
candlestick when he searched the
house. He came to see you. to

covered you were not in your

reason Sir Henry was in fear of

Fortunes aren't made so easily

wealth. have found out all that"
Il wish I could help, but I be-
