And the big boys, although they dis- And then just a few weeks before the date set for his second wedding the American Legion held a national convention in Kansas City and James, to his delight and surprise, was in- vited to make the opening speech. The announcement came on the heels of James' rather spectacular success in cleaning up local affairs in New Concord. The newspapers, even the Kansas City newspapers, chose to reprint this. One paper sent a reporter up to New Concord to interview James. James had gone with Leslie to call on a number of his farmer clients. The reporter, not wishing to waste his day, decided to interview the old- timers who remembered Gov. Stim- son. ‘There were not many old-timers left. One of them, by the grace of God, sent him to call on Miss Julia Pratt. Miss Julia gave him a won- derful interview. Later she took him out to see Miss Sarah and the re- porter photographed the mansion, photographed Miss Sarah and Aunt Lou. The result was a full page in the Sunday paper. Other papers printed bits of it. A syndicate used much of the best of it. And so it happened that James had his first taste of the potent wine of publicity. It went perhaps a little to James’ head. Leslie, radian. with pride and joy. made the most of it and insisted that he be proud of himself. It was splendid preparation for the day when he was to make his momentuous speech and prrve to his home town that he, “poor James,” was after all worthy of their confidence and worthy of their votes. For James had made up his mind to run for Congress in 1928. James knew that he had to make good in Kansas City. If he succeeded they were ready to make much of him. If he failed there would bg a chorus of "~ | I-told-you-sos. Practically every man attending that convention would be the son or grandson of s pioneer. James de- cided to make the pioneers his sub- Ject. If James idealized those earlier times he was not aware of it. James believed with his whole heart and soul in every word of his speech. It was not dong; James was not to be the principal speaker. Finally he committed it to memory. But after he had it all by heart he suddenly turned shy and could not bear to let Leslie hear him speak it aloud. In the early mornings or late afternoons, alene in the flelds or the mansion | grounds, he repeated his speech again A {ing TI'll lose my grip. EAT RICHES by Mateel #owe Farmhane and again to the somewhat puzzled | robins and wrens and red birds which were not in the least interested. But as the great day grew nearer and nearer James' courage and confi- dence began inching out of him. “It isn't that I don't know my speech.,” he explained to Leslie, “or that I'm not certain it's a good speech. “But I'm such a darned sensitive | | fool that if I catch sight o’ one per- son in the audience yawning or sneer- 1 remember once out in Nortonville at a Grange meeting I had a corking speech and I caught sight . . . of son one in the front row just looking superior as if T wasn't such a much . . . and I went all to pieces.” Leslie knew all about Nortonville. | It had at one time been common | talk in New Concord. It was Jane who sat on the front seat looking su- perior. Well, Jane, tuank God, was in New York. Leslie assured James that his audience would prob- | ably have dined well and be in a good humor. So James went down to Kansas City | one moment uplifted in an ecstasy of | pride and confidence and the next sunk in a chill of despair. Leslie, of | course, went with him. Leslie was to hear the speech from .he back wings | of Convention Hall, as James was afraid that even the sight of her dear face might upset him. Leslie ate her dinner alone in a| hotel that night as James was dining with his comrades. She met him | afterward back stage and found him in reasonably good spirits. “I'm all right. I think I'm all right.” Leslie pressed his hand and left him. She slipped into the wings where she could watch the audience, watch her beloved in his moment of triumph or failure. She clenched her hands and demanded rather than prayed, “Help him, God. He's had such an unhappy life. You know.” She opened her eyes, choked back a sob. And could not believe what her eyes showed her. It couldn't be . . it just couldn’t. It was. " There on the aisle in the fourth row in a beautiful glittering gown of blue sequins sat Jane Northrup-Stim- son. Where James could not fail to see her . . . where she could look up with her superior smile . . . with its hint of a sneer. . . . And in 10 minutes . . . five min- utes, James was due to walk out on that stage. . . . A band began playing. There were shouts and cheers. Leslie did not hear them. She had to save James. God had failed her. He had forgotten James. He allowed Jane to come there . . . sit there . . . and hadn't struck her down. . . Leslie never remembered just how she got around the stage and out at a side door. But a minute or two later she found herself on the floor of the hall clutching the shoulder of a Boy Scout usher. “Do you see that lady in blue in the fourth row?” she asked breathlessly. “Yessum.” “If you deliver & message, bring her to me quickly, just where I tell you I'll give you $5 . . . no $10. Will Will you? Will you? It's 8 matter of life and death almost . . . terribly important.” The Boy Scout, amazed and pleased, promised faithfully to deliver the mes- sage. “You say to her,” Leslie went on “that Mr. X" (here Leslie used the name of the very august personage who was to be the main speaker of the evening) “Mr. X begs Mrs. North- rup-Stimson to come back stage for a few moments as he has something of the utmost importance to say to Hee: < “Then bring her to that little cloak room . the third door down the stairs under the stage.” Leslie de- scribed the location of the cloak room explicitly. = The boy fortunately knew it. “Now go. Here's your $10. Hurry. “Yessum.” In the small littered cloak room under the stairs lighted by one dim dirty electric bulb, Leslie waited and waited. She had time now to notice that the band was playing “Over There, Over There,” and that a thou- sand masculine voices were lifted in lusty and hilarious song. Minutes, hours . . . eons went by. There was the sound of distant clapping and cheers that shook the rafters, And then a sudden clap of thunderous silence. James was al- ready on the stage. ‘Tomorrow, I'O’M‘-“ 4 SATURDAY, NATIVES' SOCIETY WILL HOLD OUTING New Members Are Elected. Loss of Historical Homes Deplored. In its last meeting of the season, the Boclety of Natives last night elected nine new members and decided to hold its annual outing at Annapolis on June 22, with & picnic at Bay Ridge afterward. The meeting was held in the parlor rooms of the Washington Club. In a short business meeting, the proposed change of meeting nights from Friday to Monday, so as not to confict with the meeting of the Na- tional Geographic Society, was dis- cussed. It was finally decided to leave the matter open for decision at the next meeting in October. New members elected were Richard W. Ellis, Karl W. Corby, John E. Kuhn, Mrs. Ann Carriere, Mrs. Bertha H. Huhn, Mrs. Edna Gary, Mrs. Marie Minnett, Roland M. Brennan and Mrs. Mamie Hughes Wells. Executive Report Submitted. Jesse C. Suter, one of the founders and six times president of the so- ciety, made a report for the Executive Committee. The meeting was pre- sided over by the president, ‘W. Burroughs. James H. Duhamel, historian of the | society. read a paper on “The Destruc- tion of Historical Washington.” He criticized destruction of historical landmarks by speculators and by the membership to give its best efforts| toward saving historic old homes and other buildings. Duhamel cited interest shown in old homes of Georgetown and Alex- andria. He said many that once ex- cited much interest already had been wrecked, but that there are many still standing which should be saved.

The prosecuting attor- |ney mopped his face and cursed under his breath. \Au his savage hlmmerlnz had | failed to wipe the whimsical smile from Henry Car- |lyle's face. Car- ‘lyles counsel | pointed to this unbroken poise as evidence of his client’s innocence. Carlyle had been arrested near the scene of a mur- der. The evidence was circumstan- tial. The verdict surprised even the prosecuting attor= ney. Without be- traying the slightest change of ex- pression Carlyle heard himself sen- tenced to life imprisonment. An interested observer at the trial was a distinguished-looking gentle- man who came early each day and found a seat near the rail. He wore the pointed beard and mustache af- fected by certain professional men and his cards bore the name Michael Dennis, M. D., Ph. D.—Psychologist. Late in the afternoon of the first day of Carlyle’s incarceration Dr. Nolan, the prison physician, received a call from Dr. Dennis. They talked shop, of course. “I insist,” said Dr. Dennis, “that the power of mind over matter is so great that the most hard-boiled in- mate of your institution will readily succumb to mental suggestion. I will go so far as to state that he can even be deprived of his life by this means.” “Ridiqulous,” heatedly exclaimed Dr. Nolan. “I admit such a thing might be remotely possible with & weak, emotional subject, but I have in mind & man who would not be even slightly affected. I refer to & man received here today under life sentence. Having read of his won- derful poise during his trial, I am interested in the man from a purely scientific angle. The name is Car- lyle; you may have read mmer.mn' of his trial in the papers.” “Indeed I did, Dr. Nolan. Shall we make a test on him?” Out of the question, doctor.” “But, my dear doctor,” urged Den- nis, “according to your own argu- ments there should be no bad results. As to the method, I suggest that we inject a small amount of distilled water into this man’s arm on some pretext or other, then tell him it was a poison that will bring fatal results within 30 minutes and note his re- actions. If he should appear to suc- cumb we can ease his mind by telling him the truth.” After some further argument, Dr. Nolan reluctantly consented and thzy prepared the h Carlyle looked up indifferently as they entered the cell, but showed & slight flicker of interest as his eyes rested on Dr. Dennis. “Carlyle,” said Dr. Nolan, kindly, “this is a friend I've brought along to help cheer you up. Please bare your arm and I'll give you a shot of something that’ll steady your nerves.” “Don’t need al like that, doctor,” replied Carlyle, “but you've been & good scout.

Aren’t you begin- ning to feel its effect?” “What!” ex- claimed Carlyle. “You'd murder me in cold blood!” He leaped to his feet, | his wonted poise shattered. “Now, now, get hold of yourself, my man,” soothed Dr. Dennis, “let's not call it murder. Rather let's call it | revenge against so- clety.” Lifting his bushy eyebrows, the doc- tor directed a curi- ous gaze at Carlyle. Suddenly the pu- | pils of Carlyle's eyes began to dilate, a pallor spread over his face and, gasping for breath, he staggered to the couch and sprawled across it. “Carlyle, come out of it,” desperate- ly pleaded Dr. Nolan. “It was only a harmless experiment. That injec- tion was nothing but pure water. Oh, why did I allow this!” The two doctors hastily straight- ened Carlyle out on the couch. His breath was coming in periodic gasps, his pulse weak and irregular. Dr. Nolan administered a powerful re- storative. Its effect was only tem- porary and the patient speedily grew worse. Soon his breathing ceased, his pulse was still. The man was dead beyond a doubt. Dr. Nolan raised a haggard face. “My God, what can I do!” he gasped frantically. “We are murderers. My family—my position——" “There, there, my dear doctor,” gently soothed Dr. Dennis. “Pray do not alarm yoursel your position is perfectly secure. It’s evident this man died of heart failure. Your certificate to that effect will end the matter. “Should am autopsy be made— which is extremely unlikely—it could show nothing of an incriminating nature. Forget it and dine with me at_the Holly.” Dr. Nolan made the routine report to the warden and the body was re- moved to the morgue just outside the prison walls. Shortly after midnight, while the morgue attendant was across the street for a cup of coffee, a form arose from & marble slab and quietly made its way among the rows of corpses to the rear of the building, where it climbed through a window and dropped to the ground in a de- serted alley. A professional-looking gentleman appeared from a nearby shed and whispered gleefully, “There you are at last, Carlyle, old chap. I'd begun to fear I'd made the dose too strong and hoisted my old sidekick over the divide. You see I had to prepare the solution almost under the nose of Dr. Nolan. But it worked, my boy, and your acting was superb. How're you feeling?” “Rotten, thanks, Dr. Mike,” replied Carlyle as they gripped hands. “As soon as you came in I felt you had something up your sleeve. I couldnt even guess what it was, so I figured my best bet was to play the stranger. I shan’t soon forget what I owe you. Anyway, there’ll be no more razzing about that hobby you call ‘oriental toxicology.’ " (Copyrisht. 1935.)
