LITTLE ROCK. Ark. Oct. 10.
Running as an independent, Rep
resentative John e. Miller today
was the unquestioned victor in the
special election to fill the United
States Senate seat left vacant by
the death of Joseph T. Robinson.
The Representative deciSively
defeated Governor Carl E. Bailey,
nominated by the Democratic
state committee, who ran as a New
Dealer and with the outspoken
support Of Roosevelt administra-
ton spokesman.
COMEDIES DEFEAT
The Governor conceded his de-
feat during the night and an
nonuced that he would continue
to serve his term as chief execu'
tive Of the State.
With returns from 1855 pre-
cinctS, Miller held a comfortable
margin of 61,985 votes to 4l,978
for Bailey. Out of 1854 precincts
those still to be heard from were
in outlying sections.
During the campaign Miller
was attacked as being anti-Roose-
welt. He, however, in Congress
supported much New Deal legisla-
ton although he opposed the Pres
ident on Supreme Court reorgan-
ization plan.

Rev. r. A. Adams, Pastor

Last Sunday was a banner
day. The attendance at Sunday
school was very good. At the
morning service, the Elks held
their Memorial Service as the
beginning Of their Midwestern
Convention. DIR. Adams spoke
from Exodus II SO, subject,
"What Mean You By This Ser
vice?" From this subject he
preached a fine sermon in that
there were many good thoughts
for the Elks assembled as well
as others Of the congregation.
He brought out that the pur-
pose Of the service and the
works of the Elks was to give
opportunity for the living and
to give testimony Of apprecia-
ton for the living as well as
the dead, bringing out that one
Of their most important works,
if not most important, was their
educational program for young
people and that the order was
based upon the teaching of the
Bible and the love for one an
other.
In the afternoon, Rev, Adams
went to Council Bluffs to prea-
ch for Rev. Slater and his con-
gregation, but the choir was not
able to go as was expected. The
evening service was short and
some Of the congregation went
to Zion to hear the O%ratorieal
contest given by the Elks,

Mr.. Bells had even begun to search
his mental archives for some
precedent and to consider whether
such a payment, if permissible at
all, should be made from petty,
cash or as a loan from his own
pocket, Mrs. Smith had opened the.
door and sailed in.
She found Charles seated at his,
desk; and beside the desk, without
his eyeglass or any trace Of his
usual genial smile-he was, in fact,
scowling and raising his voice as if
he were conducting a heated argu-
ment as she entered-stOod Colonel
Lutman. AS she came into the
room, however, the Colonel sudden

monocle slipped into their accus-
toned places.
'My dear Mrs. Smith," he began,
'this is a most unexpected pleas
ure."
But Mrs. Smith did not so much
as glance at him. She planted her.
self in front of Charles desk and
fixed the solicitor with a discon-,
certing stare. ,
"Well, Mr.. Stuckey," she said, II
am waiting to hear. Where is Jac-

expected that she would be. And II
can see that she isn't here. I am

him short.
"Oh yes, you can, Mr.. Stuckey.i

I'm sorry, Mrs. Smith, but I
have no idea where Jacqueline is.

That morning at the Office, too

on that pretext so that they could
have a little time together and lay
their plans.
In moments of crisis Mrs. Smith
was rarely at loss to know what
she should do. Long experience Of
recurrent financial crises in Cont
mental hotels had made her both
resolute and quick-witted, and in
this, crisis she decided instantly
what must be done. She must go
to Stuckey's Office. That was OBJ
viously the first step. IF he really
had married Jacqueline, he would
have to listen to what she had to
say to him, and answer a few ques-
tons. Mrs. Smith felt that as JAG

CHAPTER 43

OfEAG L Eli 70
JACQUELINE lay back on the
bunk Of the barge and tried to
think clearly. 1t seemed quite OBJ
vious to her that the only person
who could possibly be responsible
for what had happened to her was
Colonel Lutman.> Mrs. Joplin's de-
NAL Of all knowledge of him meant
nothing: it was merely part of the
service she rendered in exchange
for $25 a week. Colonel Lutman,
if he had not actually kidnapped her
himself, had undoubtedly arranged
it, and Jim Asson, perhaps, had
had a hand in the business. Only
those two could have any reason
for kidnapping her.
But when she came to ask her
self what their object could be, she
found it hard to find a convincing
reason. They wanted her to marry
Jim Asson, and their reason for
that she had discovered. She was
to marry Jim, having signed that
deed transferring all her money to
him, and the Colonel, no doubt,
was to have his rakeoff. A pretty
little scheme, and it had very near
ly come off.
She sat up in the bunk, listening
intently. No sound reached her
but the tapping Of the water
against the barge, and she con-
cluded that the Jop1ins had retired
for the night. Very cautiously she
climbed out of the bunk, first slip
ping off her shoes, and crept silent
ly across to the door. She stopped
and put an eye close to the key
hole. There was no key in it, and
as she Strengthened herself her
eyes were alight with excitement.
The Joplins, evidently, were salts
fed that she would give no more
trouble and were trusting to the
stretch of dark swirling water that
lay between her and the shore to
keep guard over her for them.
She opened the door a fraction
of an inch and paused. She heard
nothing, and opened the door an
other fraction of an inch. The
faintest squeak came from the
hinges, and for few moments she
was rigid, straining for the least
sound. None came, but if the door
was going to squeak, she told her.
self, it would be asking for trouble
to open it slowly. She must fling
it open suddenly and slip through
it and up the stairs before the Jop-
Inns, if they heard the squeak, had
time to reach her. Once up the
stairs, she would not hesitate this
time.
With a sudden sweep she flung
the door wide open. AS she did so
there came a chatter. of metal and
she stepped aside just in time to
avoid a large zinc bath which, with
a couple Of heavy iron sauce pans
and frying pan in close attend
ance, toppled off the chair in which
they had been balanced against
the door, and crashed to the floor.
The next m0nent Alfred Joplin
loomed UP from the, direction of the
steps. SomehQW, without Mrs. Jop-
lin and her expansive smile, he
looked a great deal more terrifying
as he stood there, staring at her
with sullen, resentful eyes. Jac-
queline was certain that if he came
any nearer to her she would
scream.
