Twice within ten minutes he had used the telephone in the hall to receive the same reply--that the train from Vancouver, for which he had inquired, had come in and that the pas- •engers had left the station. It was not like Gabriel Warden to chow nervousness of any sort; Kondo, the Japanese doorman, who therefore had found something strange In his telephoning, watched Mm through the portieres which shut off ;he living room from the hall. Warden turned suddenly and pressed the bell to call a servant. Kondo entered the room; he noticed then that Warden's hand, which was still holding the watch before him, was Asking. "A young man who may, or may not, give a name, will ask for me In • few moments. He will say he called by appointment. , Take him at once to my smoking room, and I will *ee him there. I am going to Mr*. Warden 's room now." Re went up the stairs, Kondo noticed, still absently holding his watch In his hand. ?; . Warden controlled his nervousness Wore entering his wife's room. She talked with him casually for a moment or so before she even sent away her maid. When they were alone, she aaddenly saw that he had come to her to discuss some serious subject. : . f "Cora," he said, when he had closed v Hm door after the maid, "I want your advice on a business question." "A business question!" She waB greatly surprised. He was one of Chose men who believe all business matters should be kept from their Wives. ' "I mean It cametqme through some .

"1 had quite decided "-ft; but now-- It may lead to some ' result which I have suddenly felt that t haven't the right to decide entirely / ^ .J» myself." Warden's wife for the first time felt f Jftarmed. Wfii'K. "You mean It affects me directly?" He seized both her hands in hi* and held her before him. / "Cora," he said, "what would you ^«Ve me do If you knew I had found Out that a young man--a man who. ; V - lour or five years ago, had as much to .•;M ..live for as any man might--had been > Outraged in every right by men who are ipy friends?

Sh« cried out, "You mean someone ; might kill you?" ' ..Z: "Should that keep me from going in r She heslttfced. He went on: "Would you have me afraid to do a thing that ought to be done, Cora?" "No," she said; "I would not." "All right, then. That's all I had MS to know now. The young man is com lng to see me tonight, Cora. Probably he's downstairs. I'll tell you all -ftcr I've tsilk^d wltti ^iJrn,w He went directly downstairs; as he passed through the haU, the telephone bell rang. WinlMI httiaalf answered It. Kondo overheard Warden's end of the conversation. Apparently the other person wished to see Warden at once. Warden finished, "AH right; I'll come and get you. Wgit for me there." Then he hung up: Turning to Kondo, he ordered his oar. Kondo transmitted the order and brought Warden's coat and cap; then Kondo opened the house door for him and the door of the limousine,, which had been brought under the portecochere. The chauffeur was Patrick' Corboy, a young Irishman who had been in Warden's employ for more than five years; his faithfulness to Warden was never questioned. Corboy drove to the place Warden had directed^ 4* they stopp«dv- *»joupg about had been pulled down; he touched the button and turned on the light at the top of the car, and then he saw that Warden was dead; his cap was off, and the top of his head had been smashed by a heavy blow. The chauffeur drew back, gasping; Kondo, behind him on the steps, cried out and ran Into the house calling for help. Two other servants and Mrs. Warden, who had remained nervously in her room, ran down. The stranger wfho had been waiting, now seen for the first time by Mrs. Warden, came out from the smoking room to help them. He aided In taking the body from the car and helped to carry It Into the living room and lay It on a couch; he remained until It was certain that Warden had been killed and nothing could be done. When this had been established and further confirmed by the doctor who was called, Kondo and Mrs. ' Warden looked around for the young man--but he was no longer there. The news of the murder brought extras out upon the streets of Seattle, Tacom* and Portland at ten o'clock that night. Seattle, stirred at once at the murder of one of Its most prominent citizens, stirred still further at the new proof that Warden had been a power in business and finance; then, as the second day's dispatches from the larger cities came in, it stirred a third time at the realization--for so men said--that this was the second time such a murder had happened. Warden had been what was called among men of business and finance' a member of the "Latron crowd"; he had been close, at one time, to the great western capitalist Matthew Latron; the properties in which he had made his wealth, and whose direction and administration had brought him the respect and attention of other men, had been closely allied with or even included among those known as the "Latron properties"; and Latron, five years before, had been murdered. Latron's murderer had been a man who called upon him by appointment, and Warden's murderer, it appeared, had been equally known to him, or at least equally recommended. Of this as much was made as possible in the suggestion that the same agency wag behind the two. The statements of Kondo and Corboy were verified; It was even learned at what spot Warden's murderer had left the motor unobserved by Corboy. Beyond this, no trace was found of him, and the disappearance of the young man who had come to Warden's house and waited there for three quarters of an hojgr tj» seafclm was also complete. ^ As They Stopped, a Young Man of Less Than Medium Height, Broadshouldered, and Wearing a Mackintosh, Came to the Curb and 8f>oke to Warden. ^ man of less than height broad-shouldered, and wearing a mackintosh, came to the curb and spoke to Warden. Corboy did not hear the name, but Warden Immediately asked the man into the car; he directed Corboy to return home. The chauffeur did this, but was obliged on the way to come to a complete stop several times, as he met street-cars or other vehicles on intersecting streets. Almost, Immediately after Warden had left the house, the doorbell rang and Kondo answered it A young man with a quiet and pleasant bearing inquired for Mr. Warden and Bald be came by appointment. Kondo ushered him into the smoking room, where the stranger waited. In about forty minutes, Corboy drove the ear under the porte-cochere again and got down and opened the door. There was. no motion inside the limousine. The chauffeur looked in and saw Mr. Warden lying back quietly ^gainst the cushions tp the back of the seat; he was alone. Corboy noticed that the curtains all CHAPTER II THa Express Is Held for m Personage. Bob Connery, special conductor for the Coast division of one of the chief transcontinental, was having late breftkfast mi his day off at his little cottage on the shore of Puget sound, when he was treated to the unusual sight of a large car stopping before his door. The chauffeur hurried from the car to the house with an envelope in his hand. Connery, meeting him at the door, opened the envelope and found within an order In the handwriting of the president of the railroad and over his signature. "Connery: "No. 5 being held at ' Seattle terminal until nine o'clock--will run one hour late. This Is your authority to supersede the regular man as conductor-- prepared to go through to Chicago. You will facilitate every desire and obey, when possible, any request even as to running of the train, which may be made by a passenger who will identify h|mself by a card from me. "H. R. JAR VIS." The conductor, accustomed to take charge of trains when princes, envoys, Presidents and great people of any sort took to travel publicly or privately, fingered the heavy cream-colored notepaper upon which the ordqr was writ ten and looked up at the chauffeur. The order was surprising enough even to Connery. Some passenger of extraordinary influence, obviously, was to take the train; not only the hold ing of the transcontinental for an hour told this, but there was the fur ther plain statement that the passen ger would be incognito. Astonishing also was the fact that the order was written upon private note-paper There had been a monogram at the top of the sheet, but it had been torn off; that would not have been If Mr. Jarvis had sent the order from home. Who could have had the president of the road call upon him at half past seven in the morning and have totd •ft-e-A'efre-^retVe^e-fre-ft-e-Jre-fre'frefre'&o^reiro^e^eAe^e^eire^e^e'fte'fre-iioft PROCLAMATION OF THE "BANNS" Law «f Great Britain Has Come Oown From the Earliest Ml* . tory of the Country. The word "bann" is derived from the early Saxon and means to "proclaim." In the very early days a simple declaration of marriage, either with or without witnesses was considered valid; but this system led to so many abuses that In the year 1215 a council of the church laid it down that a wedding should only be solemnized after due notice had been given in the church for three successive Sundays. This was, of course, to Inform the church of the intentions of Its members, and to guard against abuses. In Puritan days additional publicity was often given to an impending marriage by the crying of the hanns In the nubile market place. It Is now the law of Great Britain--apart from church discipline --that banns must be published for all marriages contracted in<7hurch of England, altnough the archbishop muy dispense banns by special license. It is Interesting to note that the Saxon word which gives us "banns" also gives us ban, banish and bandit, meaning to "proclaim" an outlaw. The licenses Issued by Canadian provincial authorities are really dispensations from the publishing of the banns.---- Montreal Family Herald. . Roosevelt on Farm Life.

The enigma of the order, however, bad piqued him so that he pretended doubt Where did you got thlat[* lenged the chauffeur. ^ ^ "From Mr. Jarvis." "Of course; but where,?H ' • "You mean you want to know where he was?" Connery smiled quietly. If he himself was trusted to be cautious and circumspect, the chauffeur also plainwas accustomed to be In the employ of one who required reticence. Connery looked from the note to the fearer more keenly, There was something familiar in the chauffeur's face just enough to have made Connery believe, at first, that probably he had seen the man meeting some passenger at the station. - • . ' You. casually. < In private employ; yes* sir," the man cut off quickly. Then Connery knew him; It was When Gabriel Warden traveled on Connery's train that the conductor had seen this chauffeur; this was Patrick Corboy, who had driven Warden the night he was killed. But Connery, having won his point, knew better than to show It Waiting for a receipt from me?" he asked as if he had abandoned his curiosity. The chauffeur nodded. Connery took a sheet of paper, wrote on It, sealed It In an envelope and handed It over; the chauffeur hastened back to his car and drove off. Connery whistled softly to hitnself. Evidently his passenger was to be one of the great men In eastern finance -who had been brought west by garden's death. As the caiN disappeared, Connery gazed off to the sound. ' The March morning was windy and wet, with a storm blowing in from the Pacific. From Eliot bay reverberated the roar of the steam-whistle of some large ship signaling its intention to pass another.., to the left The Incoming vessel loomed In sight and showed the graceful lines, the single funnel and the white and red-barred flag of. the Japanese line, the Nippon Yusen Kaisha. Connery saw that it was, as he anticipated, the Tamba Maru, due two days before, having been delayed by bad weather over the Pacific., It would dock, Connery estimated, Just in time to permit a passenger to catch the Eastern Express if that were held till nine o'clock. So, as he hastened to the car line, Connery smiled at himself for taking the trouble to make his earlier surmises. Old Sammy Seaton, the gateman, stood In his iron coop twirling a punch about his finger. Old Sammy's scheme of sudden wealth--everyone has a plan by which at nny moment wealth may arrive--was to recognize and apprehend some wrongdoer, or some lost or kidnaped person for whom a great reward \rould be given. His position at the gate through which must pass most of the people arriving at the great Coast city, 'or wishing to depart from It, certainly was excellent; and by constant and careful reading of the papers, classifying and memorizing faces, he prepared himself to take advantage of any opportunity. Sammy still awaited his great "strike." Any one off on Number Five, Sammy?" Connery questioned carelessly as he approached. Old Sammy shook his head. "What are we holding for?" he whispered. 'Ah--for them?" A couple of station-boys, overloaded with hand-baggage, scurried in from the street; someone shouted for a trunk-truck, and baggagemen ran. • group of people, who evidently had come to the station In covered cars, crowded out to the gate and lined up to pass old Sammy. The gateman straightened importantly and scrutinized each person presenting a ticket. Connery inspected with attention the file at the gate and watched old Sammy also as each passed him. The first In line was a girl--a girl about twenty-two or three, Connery guessed. She had the easy, Interested air of a person of assured position. When Connery first saw her, she seemed to be accompanying the man who now was behind her; but sl}e offered her own ticket for perusal at the rate, and as soon as she was through, sh« hurried on ahead alone. Connery was certain he did not know her. He noticed that old Sammy had held her at the gate as long as possible, as If hoping to recollect who -she might be" but now that she was gone, the gateman gave his attention more closely to the first man--a* tall, strongly built man, neither heavy, nor light, and with a powerful, p»* triclan face. His eyes were hidden by smoked glasses such as one wears against a glare of snow. Connery found his gase following this man; the conductor did not know him, nor had old Sammy recogBlsad him; but both were trying to place him. He, unquestionably, was a man to be known, though not more so than many who traveled In the transcontinental trains. V A trim, self-assured man of thirty-^ his open overcoat showed a cutaway underneath--came past next, proffering the plain Seattle-Chicago ticket. An Englishman, with red-veined cheeks, fumbling, clumsy fingers and curious, interested eyes, Immediately followed. * ****• An outburst of color Is the most salient feature of fashions at the moment It is almost lpjiyyr-f trt*k observes a [ii niiiIiii iii ffijltiii pftl 1111111 j to,realise the far-n^&h)| It#* of this outburst, It iffWjjlPig.-pyt only in the effect that it tiai OB irajaisti's dress In general, but up^-«|i^|)m<9 and to* dustries of the world. Methods of making fabrics 9pd of adorning them, hitherto unused or long since idle, ace now In full swing. All sorts of printing and dyeing processes are affected by fashions. Fashion is more than an influence; it Is a vital and powerful stimulus to many of the world's most important Industries. It is unfortunate that fashions are treated in a disparaging way by those who do not understand their fujl significance.. Fashions are not .trifling and frivolous. F«w realize that not only hundreds, hut thousands, of people arc set ,, w ra Frock of Printed and Plain 8llk In Dark Blue and White Is On« of the Predicted Leaders for Spring. to work when a new fashion goes over, or a great demand Is created for special types of materials. A type of placing embroidery on a fabric to give the appearance of printing Is seen qn a model which consists of a smart robe-manteanx of navy blue serge and royal blue crepe mongol, a silk crepe almost as heavy as a wool serge. The dark serge Js covered with deep royal blue silk. The pattern is so executed that the royal blue embroidery stands out almost as a background on certain parts of the dress, while In other parts the ornamentation is so light that it seems to be only a slight Interweaving of bright blue On the deep navy background. Bvery Wardrobe Must Have On*. There is no doubt about the fact that many and various printed silks and cottons will be worn, made up In many and various manners. Everybody has gone wild upon the subject; and unless a collection of clothes contains one or more of these printed costumes then It is not to be noticed in the polite society of clothes. The prints are done very simply. There Is not the slightest Indication of trimming. But there is eveCy evidence of the attention to design which the character offing of the silks calls for. A# around at the collection of jlflilfotf dresses which has ftftOf appeared upon the market, „ thw* liems to be not a single, violation of the principles of correct design. * Silk is evidently the thing for the spring months, but there are some tweed and homespun suits apd skirts which are certainly worthy of some notice and consideration. At the moment there Is what is called the ^natural" colored tweed suit and it is as fashionable as It can be. For Instance, a girl will wear a suit of this variety with a striped and brilliantly colored scarf, and she will be able to create, with the addition of a fine sports hat, the effect of the smartest sort of an outdoors person. Then there are the tweed dresses made all in one piece, which are still extremely charming and which carry with them all that feeling of style that th* average modern girl demands for her own appearance. They ere made quite simply on the one-piece model, but they are so correctly bound about their edges and so finished, according to the standards of perfection, that they stand alone as Important elements in the popular demands of the fashionable world. The Wrapping Coat*. Added ' to these one-piece ~frodts there are the wrapping coats that are made in three-quarter length. They are full and ample in their proportions with -wide sleeves and wrapping skirt portions. They are made to fold about the figure over the one-piece dresses, so that they form an element of style that Is entirely In accordance with the popular conceptions of fashion as it is understood by the smart women who are making the styles of the moment a popular success; For the South they are wearing not only whole frocks of printed silks and cottons but those that are made up of a combination of a printed and a plain material. This fact Is Illustrated by a dress that has Its lower section made of a print that runs, in stripes, on to the upper section of the costume. The lower portion is made of a print of blue on a white background and the upp^r section is made of a plain and heavy quality of dark blue crepe on to which the stripes of the printed material run In a succession of decorative stripes. Outlining the sleeve edges there are facings of white which serve .to accentuate the principles of the design of the garment and the whole dress appears as one of the best examples of the art of the American designer as applied to the figure of the American woman. - ; Around tttt waist of till# frock there Is tied a f»fa!n and tiadortied version of the Deauville scarf. The dress happens to be a combination of dark blue and white and the handkerchief, curiously enough, Is made of a square of pure white silk bound with a narrow little edging of dark blue grosgraln ribbon. It serves as just the proper sort of belt for the dress and, at the same time, It happens to be a finish for the dress which Is made up of the two colors The white, then, la set in at the long armholes, with a slender bit of blue edging to contrast with tit# flnlshof the scarf about the lowered*wjdsttine and the design of the dretfk becdmea, with that addition, something that la entirely complete in Itself, and that is fitted to stand the competition of a whols Season with the persistence of a fashionable thing that Is destined to outlast the demands of a season, -no matter what may be the points that are exhibited to show what that season Is up to In the way of style. , Cotton Thread Embroidery FMneb dressmakers alway* have Used considerable cotton thread In their embroideries on silk and wool materials. Renee, that clever artist In the details of needlework, uses ordinary white sewing cotton for a very casual appearing embroidery on a silk frock. Other French makers work out what appears to be printed patterns in cotton threads of bright colors, such as blue, rose, green and purple. Color, as allied to millinery, la Important. Several prominent French milliners are continuing this spring the vogue for pink in combination with black, as brought out late last season. This spring, however, the pinks are deeper, nearer the coral tones. Such shades as these are used to face hats ot b"lack straw and as trimmings. There is a great demand for ribbon In these shades, both wide and narrow. An unusual use of narrow" moire ribbon Is seen In Upstanding rows which completely cover the brims ot bata.
