The two are on the way to the yards when they meet Potts, a former companion of Bob's. Potts is accused of a theft of avhich Spike, another hobo, is guilty. Jim and Bob expose Spike and he is taken into custody. The guilty vaga- bond is being led away when, sudden- ly he jabs the spike attaching to one wscrist straight at Bob Wilson's throat. al §© CHAPTER IV—Continued sThe attack came too suddeniy and too unexpectedly for any of the onlookers to interfere.

And now, so long—there goes a guy what's de- veloped the hotbox habit an’ I got a few remarks to make to him!” Eyes flaming, he bolted after a pass- ing yardman, “Congratulations, Bob! You lie beautifully,” chuckled Jim, wonder- ing what Bob's education and train- ing really had been. But Bob vouch- safed no information—his enigmat- ic smile indicated plainly his wish to consider that avenue of discussion now closed; his firm unwillingness to reveal any of his secret past even to Jim, whom he had accepted as his best and closest friend. The offices of the Transrock- ian System's Mountain Division the of the spindly, roach colored, blind- looking wooden building with long platform sheds—like insect anten- na, perpetually feeling and search- ing before it for the shunting trains —that was ostentatiously spoken of in Crater City as “The Depot.” To- ward these offices, where Jim want- ed to establish some facts regarding his coming resumption of duty, the friends leisurely strolled. ¢ Bob, sitting down on an unused baggage truck outside to wait for Jim, drowsed into easy reflections; the sleepy warmth of the late after- noon, the reaction from moments of excitement, the clatter and bustle of the Yards leavened by distance into a soothing confusion of sounds, all conspired to encourage a reverie. A measure of mental peace had come to him with his decision to start life and a modest career anew here, untormented by worldly pur- poses and involvements, unknown and unlikely to be hunted out. Roaming always, the slate of lis life would have been ever smudgy; now it was cleaned, and the writing thereon from this day forward would be his will—not the wind’s will, not a sham society’s will. Then,” with a stomach chilling uddenness that brought him curs- ing to his feet, he became aware that staring him in the face, ironic- ally belying his comfortable feeling of security, was his own photograph on a handbill—tacked to one of the nearby pillars of the trainshed—that gave particulars as to his age and physical descriptions, and offered a large reward for information con- cerning him, dead or alive. sy Gone, the present! An unending past was snapping at his heels! Bob felt sodden and airless, like a punctured bladder; his ears rang from the tumbling of his cardhouse about them. If Jim came out now and read that brand—yet, it came to Bob as Wheeler Going TESTIMONY CONCLUDED IN SCOTT DIVORCE CASE Congressman Frank D, Scott and Edna difficulties, his wife, Mrs. James Scott, linked with high life and gay parties in whose marital Washington is tho storm center of a divorce hearing now in progress at Alpena, Mich.

Bob fervently .hoped so, as with grim energy, after a glance up and down the platform to make sure he was unobserved; he tore down the handbill and ripped it into bits which he crammed into his pocket for future surreptitious dis- carding.

Scott ended at noon today and arguments by counsel for Scott and his wife, Edna James Scott, be gan this afternoon. When the names of-Andrew Vol- stead, author of the prohibition law and his dfughter Laura were brought into the records, Scott testi. fied neither had ever taken a drink ot liquor as far as he knew. Miss Volstead’s name was found on & menu card of the Myrtle Bank hotel, Kingston, Jamaica, which was in Scott's scrap book. Ward H. Peck, counsel for Mrs. Scott directed questioning toward it {n an apparent effort to learn whether ‘there was drinking aboard the steamer Cris- tobal on the-congressional cruise to Panama in 1923. Written on the card were several names including Miss Volstead’s and Congressman Scot Opposite the congressman's name was written ‘planter'’s punch” and because of tLe notation the witness made the statement concerning Miss Volstead. “I do not believe Miss Volstead ever had a drink of intoxicating liquor in her life,” Mr. Scott sald. “I. want that made clear. And it goes also for her father.

They were making a drive to raise funds for an addition to the African M. E. church. Two colored sisters called on old Uncle Tom, an aged negro, who lived on the outskirts of the village, and explained the purpose of their visit and asked the aged darkey to give something toward the cause. “Lawsy, sisters, I sho would like to help you-all along,” he said, “but I just ain't got it. Why, I has the hardest time to keep paying a little something on what I already owe round here.” “But,” said one of the collectors, “you know you owe the Lord some thing, too.” “Yes, dat's right, sister,” sald the old man; “but he ain't pushing me like my other creditors is.” ——___.— Shakespeare, Goldsmith, Thomas Gray, in the order named, are the English poets most freely quoted. happ: to do the.
