Get a Newé! All about the grafters! Extry! Read the big steal! Full account 0' the railroad grab-3 Big men and boodlers in com- bine! Extry! Extry!” Both turned at this instant, as did :‘the others, startled by a hubbub in the outer office. Suddenly the door Hvas burst open violently by young Jim fWinthrow, the Banner’s political re- iporter. He rushed breathlessly into 'the room, flourishing a copy of the Belmont News. Following him came Williams with a. look of amazement on his face as he read the headlines of the copy of the paper he had. It was now a flood of sound as the boys came under the window. “What’s it all about?” the girl asked. “That’s nothing, only a crowd of newsboys raising a racket. Gloria, listen to me. We must get away from here. Even if you’re happy in Bel- mont, I’m not. Won’t you do this for me? Let’s get away from this office and talk it over.” “Gloria. you must do as I say with- out question. Just this once, please.” She shook her head, and refused to .move. “Judge Gilbert! Judge Gilbert!” gasped the reporter, with eyes for no one else. “Have you seen the News? Big story ’bout the belt line railway and the ’lectiqn! Gimme the facts so I can Show the News up.” “Let me see your paper.” “Here it isâ€"with big headlines.” Wright knew better than anyone else in the room what was in the pa- per. \\ hat w as Vs ritten there was not for Gloria’s eyes to see, nor for her ears to hear. He was almost out of the room with her when something the reporter said caused her to stop. “The. News says David Kerr is back of it.” exclaimed Winthrow, holding up the uaper for Judge Gilbert to see, “and that its the biggest steal in the history of Belmont.” "You must, go, Gloria. Don’t stay for this; I’ll drive you to Locust Lawn.” “What’s that?” Kerr demanded, coming forward. . “I didn't see you, Mr. Kerr,” the re- porter apologized, “but here it is on the from page." "Come. Gloria," XVright pleaded with h “I can't go yet.” Beside her stood Williams. still en- gaged in reading the flaring headlines of the paper he had brought into the room with him. She seized his paper from him and began to read the start- ling words. “It’s an infamous lie!” shouted Gil- bert, crushing in his hands the paper he had been scanning. “Dr. Hayes. will you please escort Miss Gloria and Mrs. Hayes to their carriage?” “Stop!" commanded Gloria. The hum of indignation sweeping over the room was stilled. A11 turned to the daughter of David Kerr. “Is this true?" "What?” asked Gilbert. “What the paper says?” She held up the paper, her hands trembling. Then she began to read: “If the part}; now in power wins, Belmont will sure- ly be sold to the merciless stock-yards terminal trust. The deal, which means millions for the unscrupulous promoters and nothing for Belmont. has been engineered by that king of underhand manipulators, one no less unscrupulous than the very men to whom he would sell his town, David Kerr!” There was horror in her tones and she held the. paper from her as a thing unclean. “Is this true?” she demanded impe- riously. “th a word of it,” Judge Gilbert was quick to answer. “Nét you.” She turned to David Kerr. “Father, is it true?” The boss of Belmont looked like some wounded wild animal brought to bay. He gazed with speechless rage at Joe Wright, and then looked at his daughter. She stood with arm out- stretched to him, a mute but eloquent appeal for a denial. The big man shook himself, as if calling forth all his strength for a final effort, and straightened himself to his full height. Looking her squarely in the eye he replied firmly: “No, Gloria, it ain’t true.” The sigh she gave as her arm dropped to her side seemed to be a prayer of thanksgiving that he had come through the 'ordeal unscathed. She knew he would, but she wanted the words of denial from his own lips. Her next order showed every one that she was the daughter of David Kerr. Wright’s heart seemed to stop heat- ‘ing as he heard the words that had in them all the finality of a funeral bell. “Then punish the man who pub- lished the lie.” Kerr had his own reasons for wish- ing to minimize the matter. Joe Wright he would willingly, gladly have sacri- ficed. but he did not know how it would react on Gloria. He could find means to make the newspaper man suffer without Gloria being cognizant of the fact. "“v'lâ€"‘hatg gust Westei‘n politics.” The boss tried to pass it off lightly. “Don’t "let that bother you}? “He must be puniShed, I say.” Her indignation knew no bounds. “Would you let it go unchallenged that I am the daughter of such a man?” Kerr §vas aroused by her spirited manner. It would be necessary, .he Continued from page 6. THE ‘ DURHAM CHRONICLE. “Suppose it was Joe Wrig It?" 1e asked. The occasion was too serious for a smile, but in her heart she iaughed away the‘suggestion. She wanted tr. gshow her contempt for a man who ‘ through a newspaper would utter such ! lies. and she therefore replied: â€"â€" u... - -â€"-â€".â€" saw, for him to carry it through 10 the end. "I don’t believe it, Joe.” Afg'rin sh»; addressed her father and wit}; fine scorn doclared, “It’s a lie. Ho (rzfnflrin’t do it.

But if he did, I would still sayâ€"” “It is Joe Wright,” Kerr roared. All leaned forward to hear w 121: the girl would say. “Then I would still say, ‘Punish Joe. Wright.’ ” ' From Wright’s lips there burst forth one word: “Gloria!” He came a step toward her, and shu- turned to him with an assuring smile. The two stood gazing at eat-7'1 who, utterly oblivious of everything-t « the world. In her eyes there era. nothing of doubt.

With a wrench he tore hidi- self away from his dear desire to save he'r from pain and answered huskily: “You don't understand.” “You!” she cried in an agony of despair as she realized he was con- fessing. A singly movement of his head showed his assent. “Oh, you coward!” Her disgust was overpowering. The withering con- tempt she put int. her words was equaled by her look of scorn. He started to speak, but with a gesture of impatience she stopped him. “All your words are lies, lies, lies! And to think that I promised within this hour to be your wife! You make me hate myself for ever having looked at you. Now I understand Why you urged me to leave Belmont.” Again he tried to speak. “Not a word. I'll not listen to you. Father, take me home.” She shrank from Wright as if to look at him were dishonor. All the great love he had for her welled forth in one cry: “Gloria!” The girl could not, would not hear. She had but one refuge for her break- ing heart. '1 urning to her fat 1er she flung herself into his arms with only a. single word: “Father!” With never a word, with never a look to right or left, the man she had promised to love and who had prom- ised to love her, walked out of the room. Sobbing as if her heart would break, Gloria rested in her father’s arms. The unexpected and sensational manner in which the visit of Joe Wright to Judge Gilbert’s office was terminated was not without effect Upon every one in the room. Pity for Gloria was the dominating emotion, for everyone present realized her un- happy position. The dramatic revela- tion of her love aflair, the knowledge that she had been sacrificed, stirred every heart. Mrs. Gilbert and Mrs. Hayes, not well versed in politics, har- bored no slight resentment against the publisher of the News, since they re- garded the article as too severe. Were not their husbands interested on the same side as David Kerr? And they were honest men. But their husbands knew the full measure of the bitter cup that both the boss and his daugh- ter, for the father’s misdeeds, were called upon to drain. The first thing to do was to get Glo- ria away from the office. For several days she had been staying with Mrs. Hayes, and thither she was now taken. By Dr. Hayes’ order she was put at once to bed, and under the influence of an opiate, she was soon asleep. Dr. Hayes came downstairs and an- nounced to Kerr, who was savagely pacing back and forth in the drawing- room, that his daughter was suflering from a great nervous shock. He also said that she would probably sleep for several hours Walked Out of the Room Continued next CHAPTER XVI'.
