A moment and then a head appeared, followed by a pair of shoulders. A man stepped out upon the deck, peered, around, fastened the canvas boat covering down, and was stealing down the deck, when Chris, stepping forward tapped him lightly on the arm. “Hello Winston!” he said in low tones. ‘“What's the big idea? Who's in that boat?" The youth so addressed, started in surprise, then the sickly grin that rarely left his inane countenance pre- vailed. “Oh,” he giggled, “you startled me so!” s “See here!” Chris spoke threatening- lv, his disgusted glance taking in this objectionable piece of humanity, “what are you doing up here at this hour of the night, fully dressed” Don’t you ever go to bed, and don’t you know passengers aren’t allowed to tamper with those boats?"” “You seem to be up yourself!” Win- ston’s eyes beneath his huge shell- rimmed glasses rolled provokingly. “As for me, I'm a creature of tempera- ment, knowing neither day nor night.

I e, gled her in the night before and hid her in the boat. I couldn’t leave her behind on account of the kittens!"” It wouldn’t be polite to repeat the next remarks of Mr. Chtistopher Dahl, &ren. Never in all his carcer had he met such a blooming sap as Aubrey Winston. His disgust knew no bounds, ¥ simply was not fit to live, that youth now spoke up on unt, “speaking of my be- ing fully dressed, aren't you slightly out of the picture yourself?

I don't know why they should, but they couldn’t have gone overboard without being seen, could they, with the watch on deck and in this bright moonlight!” “Passengers can always go over- board, Mr. Dahlgren, no matter how strict the watch! It is most unlikely, however, that two ladies should dis- appear in that way. I am having the aterooms searched now, everybody will be roused. Most unfortunate, but necessary. Who is that young man down there?” He pointed to the youth Chris had just left. ‘That's that crazy young Winston, traveling with his mother.” Chris tapped his forehead, raising his eye brows significantly, and the captain nodded. “I thought so myself,” the captain commented; ‘“too bad, his mother seems like a nice woman. Hasn't he been rather attentive to Miss Morris during the trip? I've noticed them dancing together.” Yes,” Chris replied briefly, “guess she’s sorry for him, seems to like his mother, 00, “May I ask,” the captain’s tones were courteous, *if you have any spe- cial interest in Miss Morris yourself? I note that you are not in the least disturbed by the disappearance of Lady de Vere, although it was un- doubtedly her money that was found in your room.” “I—I knew Miss Morris—in Phila- delphia.” “Oh! I see, Hadn’t you better either “Well,” the officer hesitated, “‘she— she was only in another cabin— sh “That will do,” the captain broke in sternly; “this is hardly your affair, Mr. Dahigren, I will ask you to go be- low,” and to his officer he said: “Bring Miss Morris to me!” There was nothing for Christopher to do but obey the captain. On ship- board one does not question official au- thority, and although the young re- porter’'s mind was in a turmoil, his heart performing all sorts of disagree- able stunts, he had to leave the bridge and go below, denied the opportunity of hearing whatever explanation of her conduct Anne might be able to make. “Found in some one else’s cabin— at 2 in the morning!” The words kept echoing through Christopher’s con- sciousness. What lay behind such an unusual occurrence, and worse, oh, 80 much worse—whose cabin? As he passed along the inner cor- ridor leading to his own passageway Chris met several passengers, all in various stages of neglige attire, “What's happening?” he was asked repeatedly. “Don’t know,” he replied briefly. He was in no mood for conversation! “Where has Straine been all this time?” he suddenly asked himself. Why hadn't that obnoxious person fol- lowed Chris upon his searching tour? It wasn't like him to be far absent from any scene of action, yet he hadn’t seen him since Anne’s cabin had been discovered empty! He had almost reached his passage- way when this thought infruded it- self. Straine must be wandering somewhere about the ship. What was he doing? Chris_turned into his passage; de- termined to go to his room and set his mind to work, when his attention was attracted by a low whispering coming through the open door of Lady De Vere's now darkened cabin. The canvass covering was raised cautiously a hand appeared! dress or go back to your room now Mr. Dahlgren?

I'll go down and dress, cap- tain. I'm not going to bed until the girl is found.” “I think you are making a mistake, but do as you like,” the captain re- plied; “bear in mind that these tropic seas are very debilitating for those un- accustomed to them.

PARIS, August 20 (#).—Sentimental juries and French sympathy with “crimes of passion” are creating quite a stir among those who think a few executions. and plenty of long prison terms would make life safer. It is even suggested that murder cases be taken from juries and tried by judges who generally pay more at- tention to the law and the evidence than they do to the anguished heart- throbs that move many. J. H. Rosny, novelist, is among those who feel French criminal jurispru- dence has about broken down. Juries, says Rosny, citing recent instances, are more lenient toward those who kill than those who wound. He gives it as his observation that assault is more severely punished than murder, on the average. Some defenders of the jury system say juries frequently acquit because the penalties are too heavy and that it the juries could fix the sentences they would convict oftener. PALMELISTALK OF HORSE St Lewis Hunter, Bought for $175, Turns Out Big Winner at Berryville. By a Staft Correspondent of The Star. BERRYVILLE, Va., August 20.— Today they are still taiking about Pal Mel, John D. Lewis' big hunter which yesterday ran away with three hlue ribbons ‘and the title of champion hunter at the Clarke County Horse Show. This horse, which was bought by Mr. Lewis for $175, with her mother thrown in, carried off every big event she was entered in, with one exception, and ran second in that. She yielded first place in the Corin- thian Cup class to Flanders, her com- panion entry from the Grove stables, at Upperville, which captured the big silver cup donated by, Mrs. Carter Mullikin_ Hoeber of = Washington.

Yesterday’'s show made up in every way for ti slow beginning Thurs- day, when rain kept the crowd from being comfortable, slowed up the track for the races and got some of the horses in a bad humor. The sun was out full strength yesterday, and everybody had a fine time. The only regrettabls feature was the absence of Col. R. Powell Page, who has been president of the Clarke County Horse and Colt Association since it was founded 26 years ago and who s also president of the Virginia Horse Show Association. Col. Page, who is 80 years old, was confined to his home by illness, and although he made a valiant effort to be present he could not make ft. Dr. L. M.

By the Associated Press, BOSTON, August 20.—The United States frigate Constitution, now undergoing reconstruction at the navy yard here, was flag-draped yes- terday in honor of the 115th anni- versary of Old Ironsides’ victory over the British frigate Guerriere. A bulletin from the navy yard re- viewed that battle. “Three days after the Constitution sailed from Boston she met his british majesty’s | frigate Guerriere and there occurred one of the most important naval| engagements of history. Won Fight in Hour. “Old Ironsides reduced the Brit- ish frigate to a hopeless wreck in a little more than an hour’s time. The memorable battle occurred on August 19, 1812. “A few days later Old Ironsides sailed into Boston Harbor with flags flying and guns booming, with her prisoners of war and the glad tid- ings that our much despised infant Navy had been successful in an en- counter with the Guerriere, proving to the world that ship for ship we had nothing to fear. At this time our military operations upon the land had been very disastrous, defeat after defeat of our forces having occurred. Old Ironsides’ victory electrified the country, creating a firm resolve among the American people to continue the war to a successful termination.” Best Materials Sought. Her active career at an end, the historic ship was saved to posterity by the appeal of the poet Oliver ‘Wendell Holmes, beginning “Ave, tear her tattered ensign down, long has it waved on high.” Warped into a berth at the navy yard, the Con- stitution became the 'stellar attrac- tion for visitors until slow rotting made it appear that she could not survive longer. A Nation-wide ap- peal for funds brought response which made possible the rebuilding now in progress. The greatest task now confronting the naval architects is to find suit- able material for the building. New England once built wooden ships to sail the seven seas, but today most of the yards have disappeared. Some hardened oak, well seasoned in Florida waters, has been brought to the yard, but the country is still being combed for the other materials needed. P Bishop Iy Installed.

TOKIO.—Miss America, the beautl- ful doll presented by American school children to the little Princess Teru, daughter of the Emperor and Em- press, has been formally transferred from the Imperial Palace to the De- partment of Education. She will take her place there with the other gift dolls sent from the United States. The little princess will, however, | from time to time, have Miss America for a visit, because she likes this doll more than any other. During her stay with Princess Teru, Miss America had her fur coat changed to a pretty Sum- mer dress. She was also presented with a vanity box filled with minia- | ture sweets, revolving lanterns, gold and silver fans, a toy bird cage and | numerous other costly gifts. | Miss America will be viewed by the | public at the Educational Museum in | Ueno Park.

At a recent meeting of the French Academy of Sciences he presented the first model of what he terms an | “aplanatic telescope.” Like the great | California.telescope, this is a reflector, | where a mirror takes the place of the lens of more familiar instru- | ments. A concave mirror reflects the tar light back toward the star to smaller mirror, from which it trav- els back again, through a hole in | the big one, to the eye of the observer, Dr. Ritchey and Henrl Chretien, with whom he has been working, have discovered a new method of making the mirrors, by means of which the telescope can be made much shorter than by older methods. In the model the mirror is about 16% inches in diameter, though the entire telescope is less than 4 feet long. It is expected that the new system will greatly reduce the cost and sim- plify the construction of still larger telescopes that are planned. F. G. Pease, who was associated with Dr. Ritchey at Mount Wilson, has made preliminary plans for one with a 300-inch mirror, to cost possibly §12,- 000,000, while Dr. Ritchey himself has heen interested in a big one to be placed in the Alps.
