And now suppose you look over this list and see if there are any others to whom you would like invitations sent.” The next fortnight was crowded with pre-nuptial gayeties; luncheons, teas, dinners, receptions, dances, theater parties, for, in spite of Inez's assertion that her friends had ostra- cised her, there was no lack of en- tertainment in her honor, Nor could Hope detect any signs of coolness in the attitude of those of her friends to whom he was introduced. If they believed the stories of her indiscre- tion they certainly did nothing to show their disapproval. * “That Lieutenant Hope is a perfect dear,” Angelica Pembroke had re- marked to a group of women at a tea one afternoon, “and Inez is mighty lucky to get him. But he always has such a sad look in his eyes when he is talking to you that one gets the feeling that he is hiding some terrible sorrow.” Which accurately summed up the opinion of the women. 3 “Hope's a good sort,” said Reggie Van Arsdale to the men with whom he was playing cards at his club. “What gets me is how a girl like Inez Machin happened to rope him in—he's not at all her sort. And the funny thing about it is that she has an idea she can twist him around her little finger. He's quiet and doesn’t say much, but all you have to do is to take one look at that jaw of his to see who's g‘oirlg :o be the boss.” “But that “Just you wait till I've had a talk with her,” said Hook, rising. “Don’t you do nothin’ foolish, lootenant, until I get back. I'll soon talk those story-book notions outen her head. Don't you worry. I'll fix things up all right.” “I hope to heaven you'll be success- ful,” said Hope fervently. f you are I'll never forget it.” Two hours later Hook returned. One look at his face showed Hope that he had met with no success. “I'm much obliged to you, Hook,” said Hope, wearily, “but I knew it would be useless. When Cleo once makes up her mind there's no use in trying to change it. You will look after her, Hook, won't you?" “You bet 1 will, lootenant,” said the sailor, mopping in his eyes with a vivid bandanna, “I'm a pretty tough old salt, but I'll do my best to be a father to her.” “And Hook,” said Hope, with a trace of embarrassment, “if you—if she—should ever need any money you won't_hesitate to let me know, will you? I haven't much besides my pay, but whatever I have, it's Cleo’s and yours for the asking. I can go away with an easier mind if I can have your promise that you will call on me in case of necessity.” “ Don't let that worry you, looten- ant,” said Hook, grasping the officer's hand in his great sunburned paw. “We'll get along all right. T reckon, and if we don't, I'll let you know.” Hope had already wired the Navy department that the chances of find- ing the formula of Dr. Burke's inven- tion were almost negligible and asking that sixty days leave of absence be granted him. The following morning he received a telegram from Wash- ington granting his request. Where- upon he wired Inez Machin: Wil you do me the honor to marry m The department has granted me sixty da leave and I am starting east immediately. A few hours later he received her reply: T have announced our engagement. Owing to the shortness of your leave we will be married soon after your return. Love. That evening saw Hope boarding the ferry which connected at Oakland with the eastbound mail train. Inez Machin was undeniably a beau- tiful girl—tall, slender and as lithe and sinuous as a panther. “I knew that you would come, Jar- vis,” she said, as she greeted him in the library of her home. “It was ter- ribly embarrassing for me to be com- pelled to write you as I did .. .. but what else could I do? You know, as The day after Hope's departure for the east, Cleo and Hook returned to Valdavia and reopened the little cot- tage about which clung so many sad and happy memories. “We must look things in the face, Hook,” said Cleo the next morning, “and decide what is best to do. I have only a few hundred dollars left from the sale of daddy’s books, and that won't last us long. 1 must find some kind of work.” 3 “Now don’t you get to, fretting about things, Miss Cleo,” said Hook, assuming a confidence that he was far from feeling. “We'll get along somehow.” (Te Be Continued Tomorrow.) DRINKING TROUGH IS TAKEN AWAY Thirsty Horse Looks in Vain for Place to Drink on Leaven- worth Street. WOMAN SUGGESTS The sight of thirsty horses looking | in vain for the old trough which was at Twenty-fourth and Leavenworth streets for years prompted a woman to inquire of the municipal and hu- mane authorities why watering pro- visions are not offered along this busy thoroughfare. “In every block from Sixteenth street west there are several refresh- ment places for human beings, but not one place where a tired horse may quench its thirst these hot days,” said the swvoman, Miss Jessic Millard of the Humane society made this statement: “Until permanent drinking troughs are pro- vided for horses I would suggest that merchants place tubs of water at the curbing and fasten a small sign so that drivers may know of the pur- pose of the tubs. At our home the chauffeur keeps a tub of fresh water at the curb for horses. Horses need a drink of water on hot days just as much as human beings need a drink of cooling beverage. When you quote me on this, plase tell the ,)ul)hc again that the Humane society's telephone number is Douglas 2272 and that we are always glad to investigate reports or receive suggesnons.” 3 City Commissioner Jardine's ¢x- planation of the removal of the horse fountain from Twenty-fourth and Leavenworth streets was: “The traffic at that intersection made it necessary to remove the fountain. It is not wise to have these drinking places for horses along busy streets having car fines. We will have to provide drink- ing places on the side streets.” Breathing Becomes Easler.

Rourke, owner of the Omaha Base Ball club, returns home from the ]ong road trip of the team Wednesday morning, he will find a beautiful vase containing a large bou- uet of flowers on his desk in his of- ice.

ARE INVALID NEW RATES Urgent recommendation that the Interstate Commerce commission re- establish the old relationship between Missouri river jobbing centers and re- questing that the railroads do all in their power to bring about some sort of a satisfactory agreement before the new Nebraska freight rates, or rather, the ‘old ones, become effec- tive again, September 25, were made by traffic men from other cities in this state, Iowa, Missouri and Kansas following an all day's session with representatives of the railroads. The meeting, which was held in the Commercial club rooms, was presided over by Charles M, Faeth of Kansas City, Mo,, an iron man, who acted as chairman, ] Many Traffic Men Present. Approximately thirty traffic men, representing fifteen cities, as well as a dozen or so representatives of rail- roads from Omaha, Kansas City, St. Louis and St. Joseph, were in at- tendance. During the day the rate e?«l smoked innumerable cigars, drank countless cups of black coffee and waded through reams and reams of lore pertaining to freight rates. The Nebraska rate ordered by the Interstate Commerce commission goes into éffect on September 25. It supersedes general order No. 19 of the Nebraska State Railway comm sion, issued in September, 1914, which decreased intrastate rates, which has been declared invali¢ by the inter- state body. Information furnished by those who attended the Omaha rate council per- mitted of enough leeway to venture the guess that it is somewhat proble- matical whether the powers that be will be impressed by the findings and recommendations of the session. Schreiber Issues Warning Against Violators of La,w “This derartment wishes to warn employes of the city that we are mak- ing a vigorous campaign against vio- lations of the child and female labor laws of this state,” said Stperinten- dent Schreiber of the Welfare board. “It is suprising to find so many vio- Intions—bois and girls under 14 years of age working and some between 14 and 16 working without germiu; also women working more than 54 hours per week. We have notified many em- ployers and if our notices are not heeded we intend to file charges,” added the superintendent. Two Elevators Ordered For City Official Home The city council approved a bid of the Otis Elevator company offer- ing to install two electric elevators in the city hall for $8,000. Robert Butke, general contractor on the re- modeling work, was directed to ar- range for the contract with the Otis company, The new elevators will run to the present basement, which will be the main floor after the re- modeling has been completed. Extra Cars Carry Omahans To Fremont Tractor Show Four extra coaches were added to trains running to Fremont from the Union station yesterday to accom- modate the crowds going to the trac- tor show. Depot officials estimated that the total number of tickets sold for Fremont would be close to 500. This, of course, takes no account of the many automobile parties who mo- tored out during the morning, Date Set for Homecoming Of Nebraska City Folks Former residents of Nebraska City vill attend a homecoming celebra- tion on August 18, leaving here at 8:10 a. m. on a special train over the Missouri Pacific.
