Mrs. Peattie expressed a wish that the Nebraska Federation of Women's dubs take over the circulating library hecauee of its great need in rural districts. If the library is discontinued three-fifths of the people will be without books, It ! was stated. In as much as the state ; circulating library started in the Omaha Woman's club nearly 80 years :igo Mrs. Peattie urged the club to make every effort to maintain It. "The increase of illiteracy and crime In Omaha since 1900 are two i of the greatest problems of the lm I migration question," stated Dr. ! Frederick Krueger, professor of j economics at the University of | Omaha, who Ppoke on "Immigration and Racial Questions." "Borne years ago Immigrants coming to Omaha were from western and northern Europe, mostly people of education, while in the last few years we have had an overflow of immigrants from the south and east, maWy of whom are Illiterate. "Police records show great numbers of Italians, Greeks and others from the south and eastern countries arrested for crimes while there are fewer arrests among those coming from the north and western countries. New laws reducing im migration from 3 to 2 per cent are a step forward, but far from ideal as they are baaed on figures instead of qualities. "A good ltdlian is bet ter than a had Scandinavian,” de clared Dr. Krueger. A song group was given by Mrs. Leslie Ayers, accompanied by Mrs. John M. Welshans and a two piano number by Mrs. Welshans and Miss Virginia Jones. The political and social science department, Mrs. Thomas R. Jones, leader, had charge of the program. i On the Screen Today.

The Grand Babylon Hotel By ARNOLD BENNETT. (C«ltla»d From Maxtor ) SYNOPIVI. At the Grand Babylon hotel. london, besides Felix Babylon, proprietor, the reigning powers are: Jutes, head waiter; Miss Spencer, bureau rlerk, and the re nowned chef. Roeco. Annoyed at the fail ure of Jules to supply n dinner of steak and Ban*—to satisfy a whim of his daughter. Helen, or “Nella." as she Is called, Theodore Racksole, New York mil lionaire, boys the hotel, retains Boron at an Increased salary, and reorders steak and Bass. Felix Babylon tells Racksole that he will probably regret his purchase, for the hotel, being the haunt of royally and aristocracy, attract* also plotters and mischief maker*. Returning to the table, Racksole finds a place set for Reginald Dlmmock. acquaintance of Nella** and Kngtlsh companion of Prince Aribert of Posen, youthful uncle of the reigning Grand Duke Kugen. la a mirror Kark sole sees Jules wink at Dlmmock. From Dlmmock they learn that Prince Kugen la to arrive next day on business concerning his marriage settlement. I*t* that night Racksole sees Jules stealthily enter a room, reappear, and remote a white rib bon from the door handle. He la alarmed to see that the room la No. Ill, Nella*s room. He threatens Jules with a revolver, and on being taken to 111, find* It oc cupied by Dlmmock, wko tells him he changed rooms with Nella because a stone had been thrown through the window. Racksole apologises. Next morning he learns that Miss Spencer has left, and Nella Insists upon taking her place. He dismisses Jo’** and forolds him to re enter the hotel. Prince Aribert. whom Nella has met traveling Incognito, ar rives. Racksole returns with the news that Dlmmock has dropped dead. That night a Mr. and Mrs. Sampson lerl give a ball In the gold room. From a small., room above the balcony Racksole and Nella see Jules. Falling to find him on the balcony, Racksole returns and finds him In the llttln room above and asks him to leave. Next morning the body of Reginald Dlmmock Is missing. Tart Four. (Chapter III—Continued.) As for Xella, she perceived, what her father had failed to perceive, that the princs had assumed an attitude of reserve merely to hide the secret dis traction snd dismay which consumed him. She saw that he waa troubled by something which, so far, he had confided to nobody. Three days after the death of Dim mock he told her he was to ieava the Grand Babylon that night. She invit ed him to lunch with her and he ac cepted. During the lunch the prince said little beyond what tha ordinary rules of the conversational game de manded. When they had had coffee he took a rather formal leave of her. "Goodby, prince,” she said, “but I thought—that is, no, 1 didn’t. Goodby.” "You thought I wished to discuss something with you. I did; but 1 have decided that I have no right to burden your mind with my affairs.” ’’But suppose—suppose I wish to be burdened?” ’ That is your good nature.” ‘ Sit down.” she said abmptly. “and tell me everything; mind, everything. 1 I adore secrets.” Almost before he knew it he was talking to her, rapidly, eagerly. "Why I should I weary you witli my confl- ] donees?” he said. ”1 don’t know, but I feel that you will understand me better than anyone else in the world. Miss Racksole, I will disclose to you the whole trouble in a word. Prince Kugen, the hereditary grand duke of Posen, has disappeared. Four days ago I was to have met him at Ostend. He had affaire in London. He wished ms to come with him. I sent Diznmock on in front, and waited for Mu gen. He did not arrive. I tele graphed back to Cologne, his last stop-1 ping place, and I learned that ha had I left there In accordance with his pro- I gram; I learned also that he had' passed through Brussels. It mtmt have been between Brussels and the railway station at Ostend quay that he die appeared. He was traveling with a single equerry, and the equerry, too. ] has vanished. I need not explain to you. Miss Racksole, that when a per- j son of the importance of my nephew contrives to get lost one must pro ceed cautiously. One cannot adver tire for him in (he London Tunes. Such a disappearance must be kept secret Tbe people a‘ Posen and at Berlin believe that Kugen is In Lon ■ ion. netp. nt tills hotel: or. rather, ■ they did believe. But this morning I , i d eived a cipher telegram from—from ' hie majesty the emperor, a very pe- i | culUr telegram, asking when Eugen ' i might be eaperted to return 'o Fosen. nnd requesting that he should go first , 'o Berlin. That telegram warf ad dressed to rnyself. Now. if tlie em peror thougiit that Eugen was here, why should he have caused the tele gnfm to be addressed to me’ T have , hesitated for three days, hut 1 can I hesitate no longer. T must invself go 1 *n the emperor and acquaint him with I the facts." “And what was Prince Flugen'a ob ' ject in coming to Eondon?” Arlbert hesitated. "Money,” he said : • t length. “As n family we are very i poor—poorer than anyone in Berlin ) suspects.” “Prtncs Arlhert." Nells es!d. “shall I tell you what I think? Prince Eugen is the victim of a plot.” “But, dear Miss Barksole, why are you so sure.”' “There are several reasons, snd they i are connected with Mr. Dimmock. Did I you ever suspect, your highnes«, that I he was entirely loyal to you?” "Me was absolutely loyal," said the prince, with all the earnestness of 1 conviction. Listen." And she to'd him of the Incident* which had occurred In the night preceding bis arrival in th* ; hotet. "I>o you m*»n. Mis* Hackaole. that there wue an understanding hetwsen poor Dlmmock end this fellow Jules"" "There was an understanding. Rut T will say this for youflg Mr. I'lm mock. T think he repented, and I think that It was because he repented that he—er—died eo suddenly, and that hi* body was spirited swsy.'* He was astonished at h*r coolness, her firmness of assertion. "Miss Rack sole," he Said. "If you will permit me to say if, l have never In my life met a woman like you. Stay T rely on your sympathy—your support" A woman, when she has brain, always has more brain than n man." "Ah'." she said ruefully, "t have ! no brain* but I do believe I could i help you." What prompted tier to make that assertion she could not have explained, even to herself. "On to Rerlln," she said "I see that you I must do that. As for the rest, w# shall see. Something will occur, T Shall he here. My father will he here You must count us es your friends." He kissed her hand when he left, j and afterwards, when she was alone, she kissed the spot hi* lip* had touched again end again. Chapter IV—The Itaronees, I On the following morning a lady, accompanied hy a maid and a <mn*ld •rable quantity of luggage, came to 'the Orand Babylon hotel. She waa a plump, little old lady, with white hair and an old fashioned bonnet Th* ! name of the lady's i ard ran thuat I "Baroness '/erllnskl." 8h* desired room* on the third floor. It hap I tinned that .Vella was In the bureau | "On the third floor, madam?" que* , tinned Nellu, In her clerkly manner. "1 did eay on ds t’lrd floor," eald ! the plump little old lady. "We have no suite* on the third i floor, madam." '‘Never mind, no mattalre! Hava 'you not two room* that communi cate?" Nella consulted her books, rather awkwardly. “Number* 122 and 123 communicate." “Or is it 121 and 122?" the little old lady remarked quickly, and then bit her lip. “I beg your pardon. I should hav* said 121 and 122.” At the moment Nella regarded the baroness' correction of her figures as a curious chance, but afterwards, when the baroness had ascended in the lift, the thing struck her as some what strange. Perhaps the Baroness Zerllnski had stayed at the hotel be fore. For the sake of convenience an (Index of visitors to the hotel was kept, and the Index extended back for 30 years. Nella examined It, but it did not contalne the name of 52er llnskl. Then It was that Nella began to Imagine, what had awiftly crossed her mind when first the baroness pre sented herself at the bureau, that the features of the baroness were re motely familiar to her. She thought, not that she had seen the old lady'* face before, but that she bad seen somewhere, some time, a face of g similar cast. It occurred to Nella to look at the “Almanach de Gotha"— that record of all the mazes of conti nental blue blood; but the “Almanach de Gotha" made no reference to any barony of Zerltnski. Nella inquired where the baroness meant to tak* lunch, and was Informed that a tabl* had been reserved for her in the din ing room, and she at once decided to lunch in the dining room herself. Seat ed in a corner, half hidden by a pil lar, she could survey all the guests, and watch each group as it entered or left. Presently the baroness ap pesie.l. ur.e lauy ate heartily. Then a remarkable thing happened. A cream puff was served to the baro ness by way of sweets, snd Nella was astonished to see the little lady re move the top, and with a spoon quietly take something from'the inte rior which looked like a piece of fold ed paper. No one who had not been watching with the eye of a lynx would have noticed anything extraordinary In the action. Nella jumped up, and walking over to the baroness, said to her: "I'm afraid that the tart Is not quite nice, your ladyship.” "Thanka, It Is delightful," said the baroness coldly; her smile had van ished. "Who are you?” "My father la the owner of this hotel. I thought there was something in the tart which ought not to have ' been there." The piece of folded paper, to which a little cream had attached Itself, lay under the edge of a plate. "No, thanks.” The baronegs smiled her simple smile. Nella departed. She bad noticed one trifling thing besides the paper-* namely, that the baroneas could pro nounce the English ”th" sound if she chose. That afternoon, in her own room, Nella sat meditating at the window for n long time, and then she suddenly sprang up. her eyes brightening. "I know," she exclaimed, clapping her hands. “It's Miss Spen cer, disguised! Why didn't I think 1 of that before?” She went down to the office and In quired whether the baroness had giv en any Instructions about dinner. She wanted to gc hold of Rocco. She knew now that Rocco/the unequaled,, was also concerned In this mysterious affair. "The Baroness Zerllnskl left, about I a quarter of an hour ago,” announced an attendant. "Her maid said she had i received a telegram, snd must leave at once. The baroness psld the bill, and went away," "Where to?" ‘The trunk* were labeled for Ostend." Perhaps it was Instinct, perhaps |t was the mere spirit of adventure: but that evening Nella was to lte seen of a!l men on the steamer for Ostend which leaves Dover at 11 o'clock. She had told no one of her intentions—not even her father, who was not In the hotel when she left. She had wrib t led a br!ef note to him to expect her back in .1 day or two, and had pos'id this at Dover. The steamer arrived In f stand harbor punctually at 2 In the moaning. The woman ■ibo v-ns trailing was not on board At 2 in the morning, without lug gage, w,- companionship, and with n plan of campaign, N'elU found herself in a strange foreign port—a pert of evil repute, p- *so-s!ng some of the worst managed hotels In Europe. She strolled on the quay for a few minutes, and then she saw the smoke M another steamer In the offing She Inquired from an official what that steamer might be, and was told that It was the g o'clock from Dover, which had broken down, put into Calls for some slight necessarv lepairs, and was arriving at He des tination nearly four hours late. Her mercurial spirits rose again. ■When the second steamer arrived Nella stood at the *nd of the gang way. eloae to the ticket colleptor. The first person to step on shore was— not the Baroness Zerllnskl. but Miss Spencer herself! Nella turned aside instantly, hiding her face, and Miss Spencer, carrying a small hag, hur ries to the custom house. The moon shone like way. and Nella could ««r quite plainly that the Barone** Tier llnekl had been only Mis* Spencer in disguise. Miss Spencer got through the custom house without difficulty, and Nella saw her call a closed car riage and say something to fiu* driver. The vehicle drove off. Nella Jumped info the next carriage that came up. "Follow that carriage," site said sue cintly to the driver in French. The driver whipped up his horse For some lime the pursued vehicle kept well tn front. It crossed the town nearly from end to end. and ! plunged Into a mare of small streets Then Vella's equipage began to over take It. The first carriage stopped before a tall dark house, *tul Miss Spencer emerged. Veils called fo her I driver to stop, hut he w as engaged in whipping Ins horse, and drew up tri l umphantly at the house Just at the moment when Miss Spencer dlsap peered Into It The other carriage | drove away. Vella, uncertain what to i do, stepped down from her enrrlage and gave the driver some money. At the same moment a man reopened the door of the house, which had closed on Miss Spencer. "I want to see Miss Spencer," said Nella impulsively. Site couldn't think of anything else to say. “Yes; she's just arrived. It's o. k., I suppose.” said the man. "I guess so," said Nella. and she walked past him into the house. She was astonished at her own audaeity. Miss Spencer was just going into a room off the narrow hall. Nella fol lowed her into the apartment. "Well, Misa Spencer," she greeted tho former Rareness Zerllnnki. "I guess you didn’t expect to see me.” To do that lady justice. Miss Spen cer di(l not flinch: she betrayed no emotion. “What do you wart? Weren’t my books all straight?” "I haven't corns about your hooks. T have come about the murder of Reginald Dlmmock, the disappearance of his corpse, and the disappearance of Prince Kugon of Posen.” (Continued in The Morning Bee.)
