At 6:15 o'clock the Jerseyites re- turned to their train, which had been brought across the river to Bismarck, and took dinner aboard. Until .8 o'clock they remained here, strolling around to rid themselves of the cramped feeling of long rides aboard their train. When they left, their next scheduled stop was at the ‘I'win Cities.

B. Warner, Lewis Stone and Raymong Hackett give outstandingly fine performances in this illustration of what the talk- ing pictures can accomplish. Miss Shearer had never appeared before, either on the stage or on a “talkie set,” but she distinguishes herself by a beautifully paced emotional char- acterization in this very trying role. Little need be said of the exceptional talent which Warner and Stone al- ways bring to the screen; they are jeven better in these speaking parts than in their former silent roles. Every member of the cast was selected with the help of Mr. Veiller, author of the play, who went to the Coast to direct the picture, and on his return expressed the conviction that the talking film is the greatest entertainment mecium yet devised.

The new naval aide,| Capt, Allen Buchanan, won a congressional medal of honor for courageous conduct in j; commanding sailors during the fight- ling of April 21 and 22,.1914, in the Mexican town. Lieut. Col. Campbell N. Hodges, the new military aide, headed a de- tachment of American infantry in the occupation. He was awarded the distinguished service medal for his work in France as chief of staff of the 3ist division. Since Vera Cruz the duties of both men have taken them to widely dif- ferent parts of the world. Captain Buchanan, who is 52, was in command lof the transport Henderson, which took President Harding to Alaska in the summer of 1923. Mr. Hoover, then secretary of commerce, and Mrs. Hoover were members of the party. During the ‘Id war Captain Buchanan won the navy cross for pa- trolling with destroyers the Atlantic entrance of the English channel. Colonel Hodges will come to Wash- ington from West Point, where he has ‘Color Tests’ Show Deficiencies in Corn Lafayette, Ind. June 24—()—Dr. G. N. Hoffer of the Purdue university agricultural experiment station has made the corn plant talk in colors, By pouring chemicals into the stalk he can determine by the colors that appear whether the plant needs pot- ash, nitrogen or phosphate. He ex- pects the discovery to help determine @ balanced ration for corn and to raise the Indiana yield three or four bushels an acre. Hoffer found the process when he Poured thiocyanate of potash into a corn stalk to see what caused black ‘specks in canned corn. Brown spots on the stalk turned red, revealing iron that had been taken up from a soil which showed an un- balanced ration of plant food. - Safety Essay Contest Sponsored by Grange Columbus, Ohio, June 24.—(#)—An essay contest on highway safety has been announced by the National Grange for youthful members. Six national prizes and 120 state prizes offered by the National Au- tomobile chamber of commerce will be awarded the best papers.

MacNair re- veals that the cards found in Og- decn’s safe arc “marked” so clev- erly that only a strong magnify- ing glass can disclose the mark- ings. Peebles and MacNair are startled hen they find that Furie’s t-sided lens — once part of a pair of epectacles—clear- ly exposes the marks. Almost simultaneously they shout—“the poker game that cracked the town!” CHAPTER 30 THE WOMAN IN BLACK “Precisely. The ‘poker game that cracked the town,’ ” MacNair echoed. “The town of Torridity 30 years ago. How it cracked it we don’t know.” “And what—who was the stake” I breathed. MacNair gave his cold-blooded laugh. “Ah! the stake. That will be another part in our pattern.” “And the players?” “Ogden would be one of them,” MacNair drawied with maddening deliberation. “And Dillon was the other!” shouted. He seemed to ponder this. “I don’t know so much about that. Who is Dillon?” “You know perfectly well who Dil- lon is!” I stormed. Again the cold-blooded laugh. He got up and I followed him to his car. After he left, I went slowly back to my den. After some thought I took up the telephone and was pres- ently talking with an old colleague who lives in Los Angeles. * * * After breakfast the next morning, I telephoned Deacon. To my sorrow, he had no word of the children and I strengthened my resolve to start for Skull Valley if they were not back by noon, I went out into the garden, As I approached the patio door, voices came to me. One of them was Mrs, Moffit's dismal treble. The other, a woman's voice also, I did not recog- nize. They came into view. Dumb- founded, I slipped behind a hy- drangea bush. Mrs. Motfit was showing my lilies to The Woman in Black! I did not doubt that she was Mrs. Lundy. “Tall,” “angular,” and “all sinew and bone and tight-shut I . | mouth,” Hubbard had described her. Her long black coat. and dress were unrelieved by the slightest touch of color and I wondered how Deacon's men had missed her. Her voice reminded me of a priest of one of the mystic religions. “These g Rg ag /-GOLD BULLETS By CHARLES G.

What about, man?” “Where have you been ever since Friday night?” “I was in my room at the Central Hotel. I was meditating. Four days of continuous meditation are required of the priestesses of our faith every month.” “Indeed!” I began to understand. “You called on Mr. Andrew Ogden last week, didn't you?” “T did.” “He gave you a check for $1,000?” oh it has that got to do with you?” “Evidently,” I said watching her closely, “you do not know that An- drew Ogden was murdered in his li- brary last Friday night.” She looked at me, gaping. “Mur- dered!” I ex the circumstances of the murder and the check stub. “Do you mean the police want to see me about that check? It was a contribution to our cause.” I stared at her, astonished. “Do you mean to say Ogden gave you $1,000 for this—your faith?” “Certainly.” I fell silent. Andrew had hated humbug of every description. He couldn’t have fallen for any ‘such nonsense as Indulgence. “Mrs. Lundy,” I said placatingly, “you must forgive me for going into Personal matters, but I am deter- mined to get at the bottom of this murder. Are you, or were you, the wife of Joe Lundy, who kept a resort in Torridity 30 years ago?” She seemed to freeze before my eyes, I leaned forward. “My niece Lucy is engaged to Og- den’s son, Jerry.

Won't you do so by answering my qi id “All right,” the woman yielded suddenly. “But you are on @ phase of my life I have tried to for- get.
