3 Lo Adele Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Xhe Way Katie and Madge Found Jim Katherine looked at me with a cur- fous startied tenseness when 1 an- nounced my intention of going with Katle in search of Jim. I knew that| expostulation was trembling upon her lps, but before Katie she said noth- ing save an eager assent to my query. “Of course I'll see to the dinner,” she sald. “But come in here a sec- ond before you go." I followed her out of the kitchen, through the dressing room, and into the library, where she closed the door behind us. “Look here!" she said, taking me by the shoulders. “There's danger in going after Jim, isn't there?" “That depends,” I returned truth-| fully. “It deepnds upon what Jim /| has succeeded in doing. But I don't believe——'" “But I do believe,” Katherine re-| turnéd firmly. “And I want you to but she laid the knife down obedient« ly, nevertheless. ‘“Vot you goin' do cef dot mans oop dere, start keel us?” “A Good Idea.” “There's no chance of that,” I sald with an assured air which I hoped would quiet her fears, but I did not tell her that concealed in my dress | was the tiny pistol which Lillian gave me long ago. Katle acepted the inevitable with a characteristic shrug of the shoulders. “Muaybe 8o, maybe not,” she sald sullenly and then glanced uneasily through the window. “Sun most down,” she observed, “und we no can tell how long eet take to find dot Jeem. You take dot flashlight? No?" “That's a very good idea, aKtie," I assented. ‘‘Have you one here?” “Two", she responded laconically. “Dot Jeem, he shoost have dem feexed, two, tree, days ago.” “We'll take them both," I decided, DAILY FASHION SERVICFR let me go out there with Katie, It— ft—doesn't matter much to anybody £lad to be relieved, of the necessity what becomes of me, but you have Of going after my own in my room your little boy. You ought not to risk | Vith the probability of meeting my danger.” | Her words startled me with their implication of unhappiness. I knew that she had no near relatives—but— Jack, her husband—did she mean that it would not matter much to him | it anything happened to her? Had| anything of which I did not know | transpired in my absence to make her feel so morbid? | I had not time to speculate upon | the meaning of her words now, how- | ‘ever. Reaching up, I took her hands| from my shoulders, and held them firmly while I returned her steady gaze. Katie Prepares Herself ! “I eannot shelter myself with that | plea,” I said. “It was I who told Jim of that escaped criminal out there, so | I, alone, am responsible for his going | after him, and T must go to find Jim. | Please don't make it hard for me, | Katherine.” | “I won't, old Don Quixote,” she saild. “Run along before Mother Gra-, ham finds out you're going, or you'll | be swallowed whole.” “She'd probably insist upon going t0o,” I replied as I heeded Kather- ine's injunction and hurried back to| the kitchen, finding Katle, cloaked and | hooded, walting impatientvly at the| door. She held her arm closely, stif- | fly against her side, and glancing! keenly at it, I saw that she was con- | ‘cealing a long knife against ier dress, | one of her kitchen implements which I knew was sharpened to razor edge. “Put that away, Katie,” I said re-| straining a smile with difficulty. | “We're going out to hunt Jim, not to | kill people.” “How you know we no need sooch tings?" Katle demanded truculently, mother-in-law on the way. “I get vun meenit,” Katie said eagerly, and iIn less than the time she had named we were outdoors, walk- ing toward the woodland whether Jim had followed the escaped boot- legger. But for minutes that seemed hours, an hour that stretched interminably into a century, we found no trace of the intrepid man who had gone out into danger with such brave simplic- ity. It was long past twilight, almost pitech dark in fact, when hopelessly plodding back to the house by a dif- ferent route than that which we had taken out, we heard a muffled attempt at a shout, and using our flashlight saw Jim, bound and gagged, leaning against a big tree.

Continuation of Letter From Mrs, Jo-| seph Graves Hamilton to Mr. " Joseph Graves Hamilton. Just when I reached the point in| my letter where I told you I opened| the door into the hall, this morning, | I was called to consult again with| Dr. Samson. He wanted to give mc‘i some directions about the baby's| milk. | No, dear, I dld not go to the Chil-| dren's Home to get a baby for Les.| le, for aithough you will hardly be-| lieve it, as I opened that door last| ' night to go across the hall I found, lying in a softly lined basket, a beau- tiful baby boy. I gasped! And rushing back, car- ried‘the child into Jack's room. “Look here, boy,” I sald. ‘“Look| what I have found just outside your| door.” | Jack seemed utterly surprised and | asked the usual stupid question, “Why, who put it there?" | “I don’t know, Jack.

I became almost hysterical, for at that moment each of them—the man and the baby—twitched up the left side of his mouth and wiggled his nose in a ridiculous manner. I had never noticed that Jack did that be- fore, and when saw it duplicated on the wee features of that baby it seemed something almost uncanny. Jack put out his hand and touched the baby's mouth; then picked up | one of its tiny hands, the fingers of | which clasped around his like ten- drils. | “My dear,” I said, “it is Providence | —nothing else.” “Do you think she'll llke him?" asked Jack. ‘“‘He seems pretty nice, don't you think?

It seemed to me, however, perfect- simple, for of course the papers had hegh full of Leslie's {liness and Low she was grieving for her baby.

LON CHANEY AT PALACE The big attraction at the Palace starting today for the last half of the week presents America's greatest character actor, Lon Chaney, in his newest and greatest production “The Trap.” Since the days of “The Mir« acle Man” in which Mr. Chaney firet received recognition for his wonder- ful character acting, he has improve. ed and advanced his type of fillm pors trayals until now he is one of film- dom's most popular stars, The sup- porting cast includes Spottiswood Atk- en and Marle Campeau. The Keith vaudeville bill on this same prograt will present four excellent attractions that will prove most entertaining. Binns and Grill wi!l offer a sensational end clever gymnastic offering; John Harrigan has a good line of songs and stories, and tells them in a most pleasing manner; Will and Gladys Ahearn have a very excellent act and prove quite versatile with singing, talking, dancing and lariat spinning and throwing stunts; closing the bill is Casey and Warren Co. in a comedy skit “In the Fog," in which they will be very well liked. WONDERS OF THE SEA—LYCEUM There was a good alzed audience at the Lyceum this afternoon where, in conjunction with the vivid drama, “Nine Points of the Law,” that amaz- ing undersea picture “Wonders of the Sea,” is being shown. This picture is really an unusual attraction and is en- tirely different from anything seen on the screen before. It not only edu- cates, but thrills from start to finish. Among important advance an- nouncements by the Lyceum manage- ment 1s one that “The Four Horsmen” starring Rodolf Valentino, is coming for three days, but without advance in price. James Oliver Curwood’s great romance of the north, “Jacque- line,” also is to be shown next week. For the week of August 12, revival week will be observed at the Lyceum at which time seven of the greatest photoplays of past seasons will ‘be shown, HERE'S A TALE OF MODERN TREASURE Hoard Is Found Near East St. by Boys in Swimming Come, Romeo ! “Treasure Island,” tales of Captain Kidd, searches for hidden treasure in many spots from the old tin can in the ruins of a home to an atoll in the Sonth . Sea Islands are stories that engross and intrigue us all from youngster to aged man or woman. It is always interesting when the villain and the hero of a story land on the spot where the map says the buried hoard may be found. When the exact location is carefully traced out from the ancient notes and two skeletons are found we hold our breath. When the wooden box, copperbound but bursting at the seams with gems and pleces of eight comes from its hiding place we imagine ourselves at the scene and great is our pleasure. We dally with the words and linger over them even though we are aware that the villain and the hero must still fight for the possession of the treas- ure and the girl who awaits them on the ship anchored in the bay. Aye, treasure tales are great. New Britain has recently had its tale of hidden treasure in a modern setting, one which may be partially described—though not fully we regret to say as the principals are remaining in the background. It concerns rum, or its equivalent, alcohol, substitute for gold and gems of years ago. There is no hero, there is no villain, unless these two characters inject them- selves at a later date than this, and there is no beautiful but foolhardy girl whose very innocence leads her into pitfalls. It seems that such girls are rare these days (innocent or fool- hardy, take your choice). But there is a thrill in the story nevertheless, 80 we proceed. A few days ago several boys of the eastern part of the city, lured by the prospects of a refreshing swim in the brook near the Cremo Brewery, proceeded to the spot. Removing their clothing in the bushes they noted a set of mysterious looking containers, which were not there a day or so be- fore. They proceeded to investigate and found that the containers were full of aleohol. Unofficlal estimates place | the entire supply at 29 gallons. The boys knew what it was but refrained from tasting the stuff. They did, how- ever, tell of its presence among the neighbors after the swim. No dog-eared time-stained map was necessary, the neighborhood turned out the first evening after it was thoroughly dark. and removed the goods from the cache in the bushes to neighboring cellars where it would be more liable to do the most good. | Rumor hath it that there have been several celebrations of the find since. Thre is no indication of where the alcohol came from, probably some bootlegger is now mourning Its loss. | There {s none where it went, some- one may even now be mourning over- indulgence in th fluid. It was there, it was found, it may or may not be | (denoting a state of eristance) just now. The story is offered for the thrill you may get. Mrs. Cimona Portillo, 110, probably the oldest woman in California, has been widowed three times, but says she's willing to listen if someone near her age should pop the question again. She doesn’t know her nationality, but is at Oceanside, S8an Diego county. thinks she is a Mexican. Her home PALACE TONIGHT, FRL, SAT.
