"A box, by George I I think It's a blooming shamo that wo have to put up with It, sts." Mr. Warren sprawled In tho most eeofortablo chair in tho room, was looking out through tho window, across the wind swept width of Central Park "West, over tho knolls and valleys of tho yark itself, now bare of Jtollngo and sprinkled with patches of snow. His .sister, Caroline, eat opposite to Ik, also looking out at tho December landscape. She, too, was discontented d unhappy, though sho tried not to bow it. "I maintain that wo don't have to Mto llko this," Stcyo went on. "Wo sres't paupora, even though father wasn't so well fixed as every ono bought, With management and caro we could -have stayed in the old house, I bellevo, and kept tip appearances, at least What's the uso of advertising tbat Wro broko?" "But, Stove, you know Mr, Graves Mkl" M0h, yes, I know I You swallowed every word Graves said, Caro, as if ho waa tho wholo book of Proverbs, By George, I "don't; I'm from Missouri." Mr. Warren, being in tho sophomore jdam at-Xalo, was of1 tho ago when ono 'fa constitutionally "from Missouri" Jfrebably King Solomon at sixty had fosfets concerning tho scopo and, depth ( his wisdom; at eighteen ho would fcT8 admitted, its all embracing infalll iMllty without a blush. "I tell you," continued Stephen, "there's no sense In it, sis. You and I Ksew plenty of pcoplo whoso incomps aire no larger than ours. Do they 'econ omise,' as Graves is continually preach-' teg? They do not, publicly at least." TSes, but every ono knows they arcs Mwfting, ns you call it." "What of it? They don't really know ; they only suspect. And I mot Jim Blafedcll yesterday, and ho shook my tend after I bad held It In front of kte eyes where he couldn't help seeing It and had tho nerve to tell mo ho fteped things weren't as bad with us ho had heard." ' "I never liked tho Blalsdolls," de clared Carolluo Indignantly, "Mrs. Corcoran Dunn told mo that overy one was talking about them and wonder lag how long they could keep It up. Aad the newspapers have been print teg all sorts of things and hinting that What'o tho uao of advertising that we aro broko?" freuag Mr. Blalsdell'B appointment as director after his father wrecked the teak was a scandal.

And father's was worse yet Abljah. Think of it!" "I don't want to think of It Neither did tho governor, That's why ho drop ped it, I suppose. Just what did Graves say? Givo mo his exact words." "His partner, Mr. Kuhn, telephoned that everything was satisfactory. This Captain Warren a ship captain, I sup pose he Is would in all' probability re fuse to accept the guardianship and tho rest of lt"- "Itefuso? I should think so. I'm J-t as certain father was lnsano when bo made that will as I am that I'm alive, If ho wasn't, do you suppose ho would have put ns and the CBtate In tho caro of a down east jay? It's Inconceivable! It's ridiculous I Think of ltl Supposo this undo of ours had accepted. Supposo he had como to town here nnd nny of our friends had met him. This is our guardian, Cap tain Warren of Punkln Centre. 'Pleased to meet yo,v ,says Uncle Lisb, Hows tateraY' Horrors I Bay, Caro, ycu haven't told any one, Malcolm or Ills mother or nny one, have you?" "Of course not, Steve. You know I wouldn't." "Well, don't. They needn't know it; now or at any other time. Graves will probaby get himself appointed, and he's respectable If ho Is an old fogy, Wo'll worry along till I'm twenty-one, and then won, then I'll handle our business myself." Ho was on his way to tho telephone when tho doorbell buzzed. "Gad, there's Graves now!" he ex- claimed. "Now I flupposo I'll have to stay. We'll hear about dear Undo Lisa, won't we? Oh, Joyl" But tho staid butler when he en tercd tho library did not announce tho' lawyor's namo. "Mrs. Corcoran Dunn and Mr. Mal colm," he said. "Will you see them, Miss Caroline?" The young lady's face lit up. "Certainly, Edwards," sho said. "Show them oh, Mrs. Dunn, I'm so glad to see youl It was over so good of you to come. And Malcolm." "My dear child," she cried, "how could I stay awny? Wo have spoken of you and Stephen so often this morn ing. Wo know how lonely you must be, and Malcolm and I decided wo must run in on you after lunch. Didn't wo, Malcolm?" Malcolm Corcoran Dunn, her son, wua a blond young man with a rather Indolent manner. "Sure, mated" ho said calmly. "How d'yo do, Caroline? 'Lo, Stovol" Tho quartet Bkook bands. Mrs. Dunn sank crcaklngly Into a chair and gazed about tho room. "My dear," said Mrs. Dunn, address ing Caroline, "how are you getting on? How aro your nerves? Is all tho dreadful 'settling over?" "Very nearly, thank goodnesal" "That's a mercy. I should certainly havo been hero yesterday to help you lu superintending and arranging and so on, but I was suffering from ono of my 'hearts,' and you know what they nro." Her son turned from tho window. "I say, mother," ho declared wearily, "I do wish you wouldn't Bpeak of your vital organs In tho plural Any one would lmaglno you woro a sort of freak, like the two headed boy at the circus. It's positively distressing." Stephen laughed. Ho admired young Dunn Immensely. Mrs. Dunn sighed. "Don't, Malcolm, dear," Bbe pleaded. "You sound so unfeeling. Ono not ac quainted with your real kindness of heart" "Oh, drop it," interrupted Malcolm. "Let's omit the heart interest This Isn't a clinic I say, Steve, how do you like tho new flat? It is a flat, isn't it?" Stephen turned red. Ills sister col ored and bit her lip. Mrs. Dunn hasten ed to the rescue. "Horrors l" she exclaimed. "Mal colm, you really are Insufferable. Flat! Caroline, dear, you mustn't salal him. He will have his Joke. Malcolm, apolo gize!" Tho command was sharp, and her son obeyed it. "Caroline la tired out I'm sure," said Mrs. Dunn. "A llttlo fresh air will do her good. I was going to suggest that Malcolm and sho and Stephen go for a short ride. Our car Is at tho door, it's not at all a bad afternoon and tho out ing will bo Just what you need." "Thank you, Mrs. Dunn," said Caro line gratefully. "I should llko lo. In deed, I should. But wo have been ex pecting a business call from Mr. Graves, fathers lawyer, and " "Oh, como on, bIs!" Interrupted Ste phen. "I'm dying to get out of this Jail. Let old" Graves wait If ho comes. Wo won't bo long, and, besides, It's not certain that ho Is coming today. Come onl" "I'm afraid I ought not, Steve. Mr. Graves may como and and It seems too bad to troublo our friends" "It's not trouble, it's pleasure," urged Mrs. Dunn. "Malcolm will bo delight ed. It was his Idea." When Carollno nnd her brother had gono for their wraps Mrs. Dunn laid a hand on her son's arm. "Now mind," sho whispered, "see if you can And out anything during tho ride. Somothlng more explicit about the size of their cstnto and who tho guardian is to be. There are all sorts of stories, you know and wo must learn the truth very soon. Don't appear cu rious, but merely friendly. You un derstand?" "Sure, mater," was tho careless reply. "I'll pump." Tho two departed, leaving their lady visitor ensconced In the comfortablo chair. She remained In it for perhaps five minutes. Then sho roso and saun tered about tho room. Her reverie was interrupted by voices In the passage. Sho listened, but could bear nothing understandable Evidently tho butler was having an argument with some one. It could not bo Graves. Edwards reappeared, looking trou bled. "It's a a gentleman to see Miss Car oline," ho said. "Ho won't give his name, ma'am, but says she's expecting him." "What sort of a person Is he, Ed wards?" The butler's face twitched for an in stant with a troubled smile; then it re sumed Its customary respectful calm. "I hnrdly know, ma'am. He's an oldish man. Ho I think he's from tho country." From behind him came a quiet chuckle. "You're right commodore," said a man's voice; "I'm from tho country. You guessed it" Edwards jumped, startled out of his respectable wits. Mrs. Dunn rose In dignity from her chair. "I beg your pardon, ma'am," saftl tho Intruder, appearing in tho door way. "You mustn't think I'm fprckV my way where I ain't wanted.' But It seemed to take so long to make tho admiral hero understand that I wa8 goln' to wait until Carolino came back that I thought I'd savo time and breath by provin' It to him. I didn't know there was any company. Ex cuse me, ma'nm. I won't bother you. I'll Just como to anchor out here in tho entry. Don't mind me." "Why," Mrs. Dunn exclaimed In an alarmed whisper "why, I never heard of such brazen Impertinence In my life. He must bo insane. Ho Is a lunatic, Isn't he, Edwards?" Tho butler shook his head. "I I don't know, ma'am," ho stammered. "I bellevo ho Is."' Mrs. Dunn's pres ence of mind wns returning nnd with it her courage. Her florid cheeks flamed a moro vivid rod, and her eyes snapped. "But, whether ho Is or not, ho shan't bulldoze me." Sho strode majestically to tho door. Tho visitor was seated in the hall, calmly reading a newspaper. Hat and ault case wero oh tho floor bcsldo him. "What do you mean by this?" de manded tho lady. "Who are you? If you have any business here state it at once." Tho man glanced at her over his spectacles, roso and stood looking down at her. His expression was pleasant, and ho was remarkably cool. "Yes, ma'am," ho said gravely. "I'll bo glad to toll yotf who I am If you'd like to havo me. I haven't made any mistake, havo I? I understood your steward tho feller with the brass but tonsto say that Abljah Warren's1 children lived here. That's so, ain't Jt? If not, then I am mistaken." Mrs. Dunn regarded him with Indig nation. "You arc," sho said coldly. "Tho family of tho late Mr. Rodgers Warren lives here. I presume tho slight resemblance In names misled you. Edwards, show the gentleman out" "Just ono moment more, ma'am. It was Rodgers Warren's children I was lookln' for. A. Rodgers Warren he called himself, didn't ho? Yes. Well, tho A Btood for Abljah; that was his Christian name. And ho left two chil dren, Caroline and Stephen? Goodl I thought for a Jiffy I'd blundered In where I had no business, but it's all right you see, ma'am, I'm their un do from South Denboro, Mass. My namo Is Ellsha Warren." Mrs. Dunn gasped. Edwards, peer ing over her shoulder, breathed heav ily. "You are their uncle?" repeated tho lady. "Yes, ma'am. I'm Bljo's brother. Oh, don't worry; It's all right And don't fret yourself about mo either. I'll set right down out here and read my paper and wait till Caroline or Stephen got home. They'ro expectln' me. Mr. Graves, the lawyer, told 'em I was cotnln'." Ho calmly seated himself and ad justed his spectacles. Mrs. Dunn step ped back into the library and walked to the window. She beckoaed with an ngltated linger to tho butler, wa$ Joined her. "Edwards," Bhe rtlnpcrcd, "did yon hear what he Bald? Is It true?" "I don't know, ma'nm." "Did Mr. Warren have a brother?" "I didn't know that ho had, ma'am." "Do you lo you think It likely that ho would havo a brother llko like that?" "I don't know, ma'am." "Was Miss Caroline expoctiLS him?" "I don't know, ma'am. Sho" "Oh, you don't know anything! You'ro impossible. Go away!'' "Yes, ma'am," said Edwards thank fully, and went Mrs. Corcoran Dunn stood for some minutes by tho window, thinking, or trying to think, a way to the truth of tills astounding development Finally sho crcaklngly crossed the room and spoke. "Mr. Warren," she enid, "I feel pullty in keeping you out there. Won't you come in to tho library?" "Why, thank you, ma'am, I'm all right Don't troublo about me. Go right on with your rcadln' or sewln or knlttln' or whatover you was doin' and"- "So you nro tho late Mr. Warren's brother?" asked tho lady, making her first lead In the game. "Yes, ma'am. His older brother. Blje was ten years younger'n I am, Mrs.-er" "Dunn. I nm an old friend of the family." "That's good. I'm glad to hear they'vo got friends.

How are the young folks Carollno and Stephen pretty smurt, hey?" "Smart? Why, they are Intelligent, naturally. I" "No, no. I mean are they pretty well?" "Very well, indeed, considering the Bhock of their recent bereavement" ''Yes, yes. Or course. And they'vo moved, too. Movln's an awful Job. They say thrco movln's are as bad aa a fire, but I collate I'd rather burn up a set of carpets than pull 'em up, 'specially If they was Insured. 'Taln't half so much strain on your religion. I remember tho last time we took up our carpets at home, Abble she's my second cousin, keepln' house for me said if gettin down on my knees haa that effect on me she'd never ask mo to go to prayer meetln' again. Ho, hoi" He chuckled. Mrs. Dunn elevated her nose and looked out of the win dow. Then sho led another small trump. "You say that Miss Caroline and hue brother expect you," she said. "You surprise me. Are you sure?" "Oh, yes, ma'am; I'm sure. When Mr. Graves came down to seo mo, last week 'twas, I told him to say I'd bo up pretty soon to look the ground over. This Is a pretty fine place tho young folks have got hero," he added, gazutg admiringly at the paintings and book cases. "Yes," assented tho Indy condescend ingly. "For an apartment It Is really quite livnble." "Mr. Graves came to seo you at your homo, did he?" "Yes, ma'am; at South Denboro. And he certainly did havo a rough passage. Ho, hoi Probably you heard about It, bein' so friendly with the family." "Ahem! Doubtless ho would have mentioned it, but ho has been 111. I hopo Mr. Graves' errand was success ful." "Well, sort of so bo." "Yes. Ho came to see you In con nectlon with your brother's estate some legacy perhaps?" Sho did not look at tho captain when sho asked this question. Therefore she did not notice the glanco which ho gavo her. "Umihni. Somethln' of that kind, Mrs. Dunn. I can't help thlnkln'," he went on, "how nice it Is that Caroline nnd Steve have such a good friend aa you to help 'em. Your husband and Blje was chums, I s'poso?" "No, not exactly. The friendship wus on my side of the family." Cap'n Warren nets a cold re peptlon from his young wards, but In spite of this he announces that he will stay with them for a few days. a (TO BE CONTINUED.) CASUALTY LISTS HELD UP BY ROW Pershing Says Use of Addresses Gives Foe Valuable In formation. IDENTIFIES UNITS AT FRONT Creel Contends Mere Issuance of Names Is Not Keeping Pledge to Relatives of Soldiers Lists Held Up. Washington, March 11. Tho war de partment has ruled that tho military casualty lists to he made public in newspapers shall not Include the emer gency addresses-r-the names and ad dresses of relatives or friends. The committee on public Informa tion, of which George Creel is chair man, 1ms refused to put out the cas ualty Hats through its newa channels unless they Include the emergency ad dress.

The matter wns under discussion for two days. Some of these discussions were entirely uncensored. Mr. Creel stood llrm for definite information on the casualties, which has virtually been pledged to the people by the president, the secretary of war and the secretary of the nnvy, and Friday night the com mittee on public Information Issued tho following note to correspondents: Inquiries of Adjutant General Mc Cain of the army disclosed tho fact that, while the department plans to mnke public promptly the names of all casualties received, nothing will bo made public concerning dates, naturo of wounds inflicted, or their homo nd drcsses in this country. Tho Information, It was stated, will be withheld on recommendation of General Pershing.
