Mr. Reppler, the butcher, rushed into Gus's. Bo did Muller, the grocer; Bohmidt, the delicatessen dealer; Rafferty, the builder, and all the other tusiness men of the neighborhood. In times of great stress and local ex- citement, every man rushed to Que's place and all the ladies of the nelgh- borhood gathered in groups on the sidewalk or called from the windows! of their respective abodes. But Mre. Jarr had no need of Maas- ter Slavinsky’s incoherent thous! partially correct information. She had seen Mr. Jarr and Mr. Rangle and her two children being rushed past in the police patrol.

But another lady of Mrs. Jarr’s per- sonal acquaintance had bebeld the epectacile of Mr. Jarr, Mr. Rangle and the Jarr children sorrow-riding in the police patrol. This lady was none other than that Militant Suffra- gette and Officer of the Society for Buppressing Human Vultures, Miss Vera Grimm, As Mra. Jarr came burrying down the stairs, after hastily powdering her, nose and even more hastily at- tiring herself for the street, she met full up with Miss Grimm.

So she followed }''ss Grimm past the barrier guarded by a court police- man, and up to the desk of Magis- trate Slammer.
