stood up suddenly and smiled.
Lets dance, Jimmy"
Jane, my darling" he whispered
hoarsely and circled an arm about
her waist.
Jane Fails to Respond.
But the first two or three steps
were proof that the suggestion to
dance was no good. Jimmy could
not even keep in step to the music
and he had always been a perfect
dancer. He held her too tightly, and
Jane felt i'll at ease, knowing that
Bill was somewhere near. But it
was heaven to be in the close Sc
curity of his arms-the thing she
had been dreaming of for days.
This is torture, Jane" Jimmy
told her huskily and pulled her
through the open doors to the wide
porch. 1--WE got to really hold you
in my arms or go crazy"
But Jimmy" she objected, weak
ly, feeling a sudden loyalty to Bill.
She glanced hastily back to the
doorway as If expecting her hus-
band to follow her. You mustn't.
1t would be madness" Then crowd
ing Bill out of the picture was the
mental likeness of Susan, who stood
between them like the Rock of Glib
raltar, and always wound. You
can't, Jimmy. We aren't free"
I'll take all the hell that comes
afterward for just one moment of
happiness. just one kiss, Jane. dear"
Feeling the pressure of Jimmy's
arms about her as they stood there
alone, Jane forgot all else and lived
for the moment. Jimmy's mouth
pressed hers. hard and demanding,
and every fiber of her tried des-
perately hard to answer his kiss that
was leaving her strangely unre-
sponSive. 1t was a shock to find
that his embrace did not stir her as
1t had not SO long ago, and she
made as If to pull away-to free
her lips,
Susan Is Furious.
A football reached her ears, but
too late for her to step completely
from Jimmy's arms. There was an
OH" Then:
80 this is why you sneaked
away!"
Jane could not mistake Susan's
voice, and the tone turned her cold
all over. She looked at Susan stand
ing there in the lighted shadows.
Then her eyes turned back to jim
my, who seemed to be mute for the
moment. She waited for him to de-
fend his actions and protect her
against his wife's tongue. When he
did not speak she felt lump that
was her heart turn over and slowly
die.
Instead Of bending her fury on
Jimmy as she started out to do
Susan lashed at Jane like an erupt-
ed volcano.
You cheap little wretch" she
screamed, her face livid with rage.
III teach you to flirt with my hus-
band!"
With that she lashed out at Jane,
and her long fingernails clawed
flesh from the white arm, bringing
blood.
"Susan!" cried Jimmy, Mortified,
coming to life with a jerk. Stop
it! Are you crazy?" He was pulling
frantically at his wife, who was
fighting like Gagged wildcat. Run,
Jane! Get away from her!"
But Jane was powerless to move
and stood staring in horror at he-
arm, which was rapidly turning red
with oozing blood. Her own warm
blood. And while she stared, almost
fainting at the sight, some one came
up behind her and uttered a low
oath. She came to life and turned
around, quickly.

Victor Guiliot, member OF the
chamber of deputies, died today of
what police said wa! "lf-inflIcted
bullet wound, completing an al
ready critical internal political sit
uation created by the resignation Of
President Roberto NJ. Ortiz.

traced part of the funds which 1t de-
cIared were distributed among OIL
ficials and former officials, left notes
to his family and friends.
Meanwhile, categorical no was
