The one pbl‘son who could have told : how Joe Wright had come to visit? Mike Noonan‘s waging house was Da- i vid Kerr. He had sprung the trap himself. never dreaming that his own daughter w (1 he caught in it. When the fight on the Interurban Railway had first Started, at command of the boss, Jack Durken, a ward heeler, ap- parently had gone over to the enemy. The man-had found employment in the circulation department of the News, and S001! afterward the infor- mation reached Wright that one of his own employes was a former henchman The Thought of Physical Injury Did Not Occur to Him. of the notorious first ward leader, Mike Noonan. Durken was loud in his denunciations of David Kerr and his followers, and appeared willing to betray whatever he knew of the meth- ods of the gang. , vâ€" The editor found him a fountain of information regarding the shady poli- tics of Belmont. In reality Durken told only what David Kerr ordered him to tell. Wishing to establish Wright’s confidence in the man, Kerr had him. disclose many things of slight imporâ€"- tance that were absolutely authentic.- One of the charges continuously. houses in the low, thickly-papulated river wards. Durken even admitted it when Wright asked about it, and sev- eral days later suggested a tour of in- spection. The blood of the star re- porter warmed in the editor’s veins. The idea was tantalizing. It was one of those stories a good man would sac- rifice half a year's salary to handle. Without saying anything to anyone, ‘ : the owner of the News thought of the ’ expedition for several days. The more he thought of it. the more it appealed to him. The more it appealed to him the less was the likclihood of his con- sidering the axiom that in battle it is a genoral's duty not to get. hurt.

The few remaining hours of darkness he rolled and tossed. It was not the bruises he had received in the fight at Noonan’s that kept him awake, annoying as they were. It was always the one thought â€"Gloria, Gloria, Gloria. V‘V‘OW, vâ€"vr, Morning brought diversions which slightly relieved the tension. There were two editorials to be written upon the political situation. This was fol- lowed by conferences with men on the paper, and then came the letter to the newspaper broker announcing that the News was for sale. He did 'not dictate this to his secretary, but 1 § 0 O Q Q Q Q 0 Q Q 9 § 0 wrote it out laboriously in long-hand. ': z .vvv â€"v The morning was more than half over when he began to pack. It was Wright’s intention to leave Belmont that night, ostensibly on a vacation for the purpose of recuperation after the hard campaign. The owner of the News felt, however, that he would nev. er return. The many steps necessitated in packing taught him how weak he was, 1 and after lunch he called in Patty, the ! little daughter of his landlady, .to help him. They had always been the best friends, and her sorrow when she learned he was going away on a long vacation was genuine. The child was of much assistance, bringing all the smaller things from the living room into the bedroom where the real work of packing was being done. â€"-‘L 4““ v When the packing was about com- :pleted the little girl remembered that she had brought a doll with her. In searching for it in a pile of clothing beside Wright’s trunk she felt some- thing hard. To satisfy her curiosity she drew it forth, to discover, instead of her doll, that it was a framed pic- ture of a young woman. It was a pic- ture of Gloria which had appeared in a weekly society paper. .I n ___A‘j “luv my. I!- â€".._ “It’s extremely good of you to find that picture,” the man remarked with ’ the gravity he sometimes assumed in. : treating Patty as one of equal years Land understanding; “I doubt if I i i I l ’ should have found it.” “I was hunting for my dolly, and ilooked under a pile of things and ' found the pretty picture lady.” She ; gazed at the picture of Gloria admir- “in 1 g ' g y. - “poa'llv Path"- vou astonish me! w V' WV.-. wv 'â€" Patty had helped wrap the framed pictures in old newspapers, and as she brought Gloria’s picture, she exclaimed triumphantly, “Here’s another picture, Mr. J oey.” ‘ - “L: ALI-L o UVVJ . Wright had put it aside surrepti- tiously when packing the things he had planned to take with him for im- mediate use. For the fraction of a minute there had been a debate in his mind as to whether or not he would be weak enough to carry her picture with him. He had finally placed it un- der a pile of clothing beside his steamer trunk. 073 P 'LHDAJ ; “Really, Patty, you astonish me! 3 Your perspicacity is exceeded only by Tyour perseverance.

With the announcement that no one was at home and she had to answer the bell, she scampered off. Wright picked up the picture and 'gazed at it intently. He was sacrific- ing all for her. Was the sacrifice worth while? The» question would have been an idle one. He loved her, had never loved anyone else and never 1 (would love anyone else. No sacrifice ! ‘was too great which would mean any increased happiness for her. The sound of some one being brought to 1 his rooms by Patty caused him to put {the picture hastily face downward on “Good afternoon.
