Henry straightened, listened; QS the voice stopped, his great, finely-shaped head sank between his shoulders; he fumbled In his pocket for a cigar, and his big hands shook as he lighted it, without word of excuse to her. A strange feeling came to her that he felt what he dreaded approaching and was no longer conscious of her presence. She heard footsteps In the larger room coming toward the office door. Henry was in suspense. A rap came at the door. He whitened, and wet his Hps. "Come in." he summoned. One of the office girls entered^ bringing a white page of paper with three or four lines of purple typewriting upon it which Constance Recognized must be a transcript of a message Just rf ceived. • . She started forward at sight of it, forgetting everything else; but he took the paper as though he did not know she was there. He merely held it until the girl had gone out; even then he stood folding and unfolding it, and his eyes did not drop to the sheet. The girl had said nothing at all but, having seen her, Constance was athrill; the girl had not been a bearer of bad news, that was sure; she brought some sort of good news! Constance, certain of it, moved nearer to Henry to read what he held. He looked down and read. "What is it, Henry?** His muscular reaction, a* be read, had drawn the sheet away from her; he recovered himself almost Instantly and gave the paper to her. "8:35 a. m„ Manitowoc, Wis.," she read. "The schooner Anna S. Solwerk has been sighted making for this port. She is not close enough for communication, but two lifeboats, additional to her own, can be plainly made out. It Is believed that she must have picked up survivors of No. 25. She carries no wireless, so is unable to report. Tugs are going to her." "Two lifeboats!" Constance cried. "That could mean that they all are saved or nearly all; doesn't it, Henry; doesn't It?" He had read some other significance In it, she thought, or, from liis greater understanding of conditions in the storm, he had been able to hold no hope from what had been reported. That was the only way she could explain to herself as he replied to her; that the word meant to him that men were saved and that therefore it was dismaying to him, could not come to her at once. When it came now, it went over her first only In the flash of Incredulous question. The telephone buzzer under his desk sounded; she drew close as he took up his receiver. 'Manitowoc?" he said. "I want to know what you've heard from the Solwerk. . . . You hear me? . . . The men the Solwerk ptclia^ Hgy ; Xou have the names yet?" . ,;i "The Ben ton T' "Oh, I understand I All from the Benton. I see! . . . No; never mind their names. How about Number 25? Nothing more beard from them?" Constance had caught his shoulder while he was speaking and now clung to it. Release--release of strain wag going through htm! she could feel It, and she heard it in his tones and saw It In his eyes. "The steamer Number 25 rammed proved to have been the Benton," he told her. "The men are all from her. They had abandoned her in the small boats, and the Solwerk picked them up before the ferry found her." He was not asking her to congratulate him upon the relief he felt; he Toward three o'clock, the office called her, but only to report that they had heard from Mr. Sherrlll. He had wired that he was going on from Man- Istique and would cross the straits from St. Ignace; messages from him were to be addressed to Petoskey. There was no other report except that vessels were still continuing the search for survivors, because the Indian Drum, which had been beating, was beating "short," causing the superstitions to be certain that, though soniWof the men from Number 25 were lost, some yet survived. Constance thrilled as she heard that. She did not believe fn the Drum; at least she bad never thought she had really believed in it; she had only stirred to Idea of Its being true. f^\ "Were They--Alive?" Har Hushed Tensely. Voice mained with her some minutes mpre, he seemed to have forgotten the purpose of reconciliation with her which had brought him td the house. . She dined, or made pretence of dining, with her giother at seven. Her mother's voice went on and on about trifles, and Constanee did not try to pay attention. Her thought was following Henry with ever-sharpening ap-, prehension." She called the office In' mid-evening; It wonld be open, she knew, for messages regarding Uncle Benny and Alan would be expected there. A clerk answered; no other news had been received; she then asked Henry's whereabouts. "Mr. Spearman w£nt north late this afternoon. Miss Sherrlll," the clerk Informed her. "North! Where r "We are to conftntmicate with him this evening to Grand Rapids; after that, to Petoskey." , Constance could hear her own heart beat. Why had Henry gone, she wondered ; not, certainly, to aid the search. He had gone to--hinder it? CHAPTER mm Iff; 'Mb Henry was seated at his desk, facing her, his big hands before him; one of them held the telephone receiver. He lifted it slowly and put It upon the hook beside the transmitter as he watched her with steady, silent, aggressive scrutiny. He did not rise; only after a moment he recollected that he had not done so and came to hi* feet "Good morning, Connie," he sal'1 "Come In. What's the news?" The Impulse which had brought her into his office went from her. She had not seen nor heard from Henry directly , sipce before Alan's telegram had come late yesterday afternoon; she had heard from her father only that he had informed Henry; that was all. "I've no news, Henry," she said. "Have you?" She closed the door Behind her, moving closer to him. "How did you happen to be beta, Connie?" he asked. She made no reply but gazed at him, studying him. The agitation which he was trying to conceal was not entirely consequent to her coming In upon him; it had been ruling him before. It had underlain the loudness and abuse of his words which she bad overheard. That was no capricious outburst of temper or irritation; it had come from something which had seized and held him in suspense, in dread--In dread; there was no other way to define her impression to herself. When she had opened the door and come In, he had looked up in dread, as though preparing himself for whatever she might announce. Now that the. door shut them In alone, he approached her with arms offered. She stepped back. Instinctively avoiding his embrace; and he stopped at once, but be had come 4Ulte close to her now. As she stared at him, the clerk's voice came to her suddenly over the partition which separated the office from the larger room where the clerk But ff the Drum was beating, she was glad It was beating short It was serving, at least, to keep the lake men more alert A little later, as Constance stood at the window, gazing out at the snow upon the lake, she drew back suddenly out of sight from the street, as she saw Henry's roadster appear out of the storm and stop before the house. She waited In the room where she was. The strain he was under had not lessened, she could see; or rather, If she could *rust her feeling at sight of him, It had lessened only slightly, ahd at the same time his power to resist it had been lessening too. ' "I thought you'd want to know, Connie," he said, "so I came straight out The Richardson's picked up one of vthe boats of the ferry." "Uncle Benny and Alan Conrad were not in it," she returned; the triumph she had seen In him had told her that. "No; It was the first boat put off by the ferry, with the passengers and cabin maid and some Injured men of the crew." • /*>. - "Were they -- hue ,voice hushed tensely. , ^ ; "Yes; that Is, they were able to revive them all; but It didn't seem possible to the Rtchardson's officers that anyone could be revived who had been exposed much longer than that; so the Richardson's given up the search, and some of the other ships that were searching have given up too, and gone on their course." "I see; how many wera ltt the boa4;?" "Twelve, Connie." "Then all the vessels up thera won't .give up yet!" r"' • "Why not?" "I was just talking with the office, Henry; they've heard again from the other end of the lake. The people up there say the Drum Is beating, but It's beating short still 1" "Short!" • . 1. i She saw Henry stiffen. "Yes," Nb# Said swiftly. "They say the Drum began sounding last night, and that at first it sounded for only two lives; it's kept on htatlng. but still Is beating only for four. There were •lilrty-nlne on the ferry--sevefi passengers and thirty-two crew* Twelve have been saved now; «o until the Drum raises the beats to twenty-seven there Is Still a chance that someone will be saved." Constance watched him with wonder at the effect of what she had told. The news of the Drum had shaken him from his triumph over Alan and Uncle Benny and . over her. It had shaken him so that though he re- The Watch Upon the Beaoh. Constance waa throbbing with determination and action, as she found her purse and counted the money in it. She never in her life had gone alone upon an extended journey, much less been alone upon a train overnight. If she spoke of such a thing now, she would be prevented; no occasion for it would be recognized; she woul,d not be allowed to go, even If "properly accompanied." She could not therelore, risk taking a handbag from the house; so she thrust nightdress and Jitollet articles Into her muff and the roomy pocket of her fur coat. She descended to the side door of the bouse, gained the street find turned westward at the first corner to a street car which would take her to the railway station. • 1 The manner of buying a railway ticket and of engaging a berth were unknown to her--there had been servants always to do these thlngs-Mmf she watched others and did as they did. She procured a telegraph blank and wrote a message to her mother, telling her that she had gone north to join her father. When the train had started, she gave the message to the porter, directing him to send it from the first large town at which they stopped. Constance could hot, as yet, place Henry's part in the strange circumstances which had begun to reveal themselves with Alan's coming to Chicago; but Henry's hope that Uncle Benny and Alan were dead was beginning to make that clearer. She lay without voluntary movement In her berth, but her bosom was shaking with the thoughts which came to her. Twenty years before, some dreadful event had altered Uncle Benny's life; his wife had known--or had learned-- enough of that event so that she had left him. It had seemed to Constance and her father, therefore, that it must have been some intimate and private event. Unyle Benny had withdrawn himself from men; he had ceased to be active in his business and delegated it to others. This change? had been strangely advantageous to Henry. Henry had been hardly more than a common seaman then. He had been a mate--the mate on'one of Uncle Ben ny's ships. Quite suddenly he had beeortie Uncle Benny's partner. Henry had explained this to her by Sbylng that Uncle Benny had not trusted Henry; he had been suspicious of him; he had quarreled with him. How strange, then, that Uncle Benny should have advanced and given way to a man whom he could not trust 1 Uncle Benny had come to her and warned her not to marry Henry; then he had sent for Alan. There had been purpose In these acts of Uncle Benny's; had they meant that Uncle Benny had been on the verge of making explanation-->that explanation which Henry feared--and that he had been --prevented? Her father had thought this; at least, he had thought that Uncle Benny must~have left some explanation in his house. He had told Alan that, and had given Alan the key to the house so that he could find it. Alan had gone to the house-- In the house Alan had found someone who had mistaken him for ghost, a man who had cried ont at sight of him something about a shipabout the Mlwaka, the ship of whose loss no one had known anything ex cept by the soundings of the Drihn. What had the man been doing In the house? Had he too been Jooklng for baton; but she only one in that house! „ , th Alan there! s,' when Alan had been attacked upon the street, had Henry anything to do with that? Henry had lied to her about being in Duluth the night he had fought with Alan; he had not told her the true cause of his quarrels with Uncle Benny; he had wished her to believe that Uncle Benny was dead when the wedding ring and watch came to her-- the watch which had been Captain Stafford's of the Mlwaka! Henry had urged her to marry him at once. Was that because he wished the security that her father--and she--must give her husband when they learned the revelation which Alan or Uncle Benny might bring? At Petoskey she went from the train directly to the telegraph office.- If Henry was in Petoskey, they would know at that office where he could be found; he would be keeping in touch with them. Mr. Spearman, the operator sald,had been at the office early in the day; there had been no message for him; he had left instructions that any which came were to be forwarded;to him through the men who, under nls direction, were patrolling the shore for twenty miles north of Little Traverse, watching for boats. ; Constance crossed the frozen edges of the bay by sledge to Harbor Point Her distrust now had deepened to terrible dread. She had : not been able before this to form any definite idea of how Henry could threaten Alan and Uncle Benny; she had imagined only vague Interference and obstruction of the search for them; she had not foreseen that he could so readily assume charge of the search and direct, or misdirect, it. At the Point she discharged the sledge and went on foot to the honse of the caretaker who had charge of the Sherrlll cottage during the winter. Getting the keys from him, she let herself into the house. Going to her room, she unpacked a heavy sweater and woolen cap and short fur coat-- winter things which were left there against use when they opened the house sometimes out of season--and put them on. Then she went down and found her snowshoes. Stopping at the telephone, she called long distance and asked them to locate Mr. Sherrlll, If possible, and instruct him to move south along the shore with whomever he had with him. She went out then, and fastened on her snowshoes. Constance hurried westward and then north, following the bend of the shore. The figure of a man--one of the shore patrols--pacing the ice hummocks of the beach, and staring .out upon the lake, appeared vaguely in the dusk when she had gone about two miles. She came, three quarters of a mile farther on, to a second man; about an equal distance beyond she found a third, but passed him and went on. ' Her legs ached now with the unaccustomed travel upon snowshoes; the cold, which had been only a piercing chill at first, was stopping feeling, almost stopping thought. She was horrified to find that she was growing weak and that her senses were becoming confused. She had come, la all, perhaps eight miles; and she was •playing out." She descended to the beach again and went on; her gaze continued to search the lake, but now, wherever there was a break In the bluffs, she looked toward the shore as well. At the third of these breaks, the yellow glow of a window appeared, marking a house in a hollow between 8he Made No Reply but Qaiad at Him, ,,, fttudytpo Him. |IOOOOOOOOOOGOOOOOO<COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCKKK>OOOOOOOOOOOOOO EMPLOYED "DOG-OIL" AS MEDICINE anil fteitVtef KHBe mesaaga over tfea {with ba& had nat so far forgotten himself as that. But it was plain to her that he was congratulating himself; It had been fear that he was feeling before-- fear, she was beginning to understand, that those on the ferry had been saved Horror and amazement flowed in upon her with her realization of this In I the man she had promised to marry. For an instant she stared at him, all her body tense; then, as she turned and went out, he followed her, calling her name. But, seeing the seamen In the larger office, he stopped, and she understood he was not willing to urge himself upon her In their presence. "I'm willing to go home now, mother, If' you wish," she said steadily.

City, Mo.--Prison doors closed recently on Mattie Howard, the most remarkable woman of the underworld in the history of Kansas City. Directly or indirectly she had been responsible for the death of a dozen men, and was herself implicated directly in at least one killing, for it was for this crime that she was imprisoned. She appears to ba a type moire commonly aiet la the "movies" than in real life. It was In 1018 thet she burst upon the underworld of Kansas City. It is said that she had respectable parents and was well educated, especial care being giv?n to the development of her voice which apparently was something out of the ordinary. She was strikingly handsome, a brilliant blonde, with slate-blue eyes which won for her the title, "girl with the agate eyes." Loved a Qa'ngster. lfattle Howard presently took up with Albert Pagle, a rising young gangster who was just attracting the attention of the police. Though she took up with many men in the course of her career, there is no doubt thaf the infatuation for Pagle was the guiding Impulse of her life. For a year the lovers lived together and then Pagld was arrested and sentenced to five years for highway robbery. Mattie was left broken-hearted but began planning ways to raise money to secure his release.
