She was startled terribly startled; but she saw at once, of course, that it must be just his way of jokjdg, for, of course, there wasn't any vol cano big enough to blow up the whole United States; and, anyway, she did not think it was nice of him and it was almost like swearing to say, tne Lord Almighty' in that tone of voice. She never liked that fat man again. After that she always talked to Mr. Chalmers, or to the other man with a wart on his nose Miss Flora had never had a check book before, but she tried very hard to learn how to use it and to show herself not too stupid. She was glad there were such a lot of checks in the book, but she didn't believe she'd ever spend them all such a lot of moneyl She had had a savings bank book, to be sure, but she had not been able to put anything in the bank tor a long time, and she had been worrying a good deal lately for fear sne would have to draw some out, business had been so dull. But she would not have to do that now, of course, with all this money that had come to her. They told her that she could have all the money she wanted by lust fill ing out one of the little slips in her checkbook the way they had told her to do it, and taking it to Mr. Chal mers's bank that there were a good many thousand dollars there waiting for her to spend just as she liked; and that, when they were gone. Mr. Chal mers would tell her how to sell some of her bonds and get more. It seemed very wonderful! fhere were other things, too. that they had told her too many for her to remember something abount in terest, and things called coupons that must be cut off the bonds at certain times. She tried to remember it all; but Mr. Chalmers had been very kind and had told her not to fret.'He would help her when the time came. Mean while, he had rented her a nice tin box (that pulled out like a drawer) in the safety deoosit vault under the bank. where she could keep her bonds and all the other papers such a lot of theml that Mr. Chalmers told her she must keep very carefully. But it was all so new and compli cated, and. everybody was always talk- ing at once, sol . No wonder, indeed, that Miss ilora was quite breathless with it all. By the time the Blaisdells found themselves able to pay attention to Hillerton. or to anything outside their own astounding personal affairs, they I ATHLETIC CLUB DIRECTORS HOLD INFORMAL LONCH i Omaha Business Men Guests at Reception to Show How Near Building is to Completion.

Hamilton, assistant general freight agent of the Union Pacific, is back from Camp Steever, near Lake ueneva, Vis.,where he spent two weeks attending a training carno for citizen soldiers. There were 15 6ma- hans and Nebraskans at the Camp. The attendance was something over 500. Camp Steever, according to Mr. Hamilton, is conducted along the lines of the Plattsburg (N. Y.) camp, designed to train citizens in the rudi ments of military tactics. The dis cipline is as strict as in the regular army training camp and everything is under the direction of army offi cers. The men are quartered in tents and are instructed in trench, bomb and alt kinds of warfare.

Author ot "Pollyarma." became suddenly aware of the atten tion Hillerton was paying to them. The whole town was agog. The grocery store, the residence of Frank Blaisdell and Miss Flora's humble cottage might be found at nearly any daylight hour with from one to a doz en curious-eyed gazers on the side walk before them. The town paper had contained an elaborate account of the bequest and the remarkable cir cumstances attending it; and Hiller ton became the mecca of wandering automobiles for miles around. Big metropolitan dailies got wind of the affair, recognized the magic name of Stanley G. Fulton, and sent reporters post-haste to Hillerton. Speculation as to whether the multi millionaire was really dead was preva lent everywhere, and a search tor some clue to his reported South American exolorme expedition was undertaken in several quarters. Vari ous rumors concerning the expedition aooeared immediately, but none of them seemed to have any really solid foundation. Interviews with the great law firm having the handling of Mr. Fulton's affairs were printed, but even here little could be learned save the mere fact of the letter of instruc tions, upon which they had acted ac cording to directions, and the other fact that there still remained one more packet understood to be the last will and testament to be opened in two years' time if Mr. Fulton re mained unheard from. The lawyers were bland and courteous, but they really had nothing to say, they de clared, beyond the already published facts. In Hillerton the' Blaisdells accepted this notoriety with characteristic variation. Miss Flora, after cordially welcoming one "nice young man," and telling him all about how strange and wonderful it was. and how frightened she felt was so shocked and distressed to find all that she said (and a great deal that she did not say!) staring at her from the first page of a big news paper, that she forthwith barred her doors and refused to open them till she satisfied herself, by surreptitious peeps through the blinds, that it was only a neighbor who was knocking for ad mittance. An offer of marriage from a western ranchman and another front a Vermont farmer (both entire strangers) did not tend to lessen her perturbation of mind. Frank, at the grocery store, rather welcomed questioners so long as there was a hope of turning them into customers; but his wife and Mel- licent showed almost as much terror of them as did Miss Flora herself. James Blaisdell and Fred stoically endured such as refused to be silenced by their brusque noncommittalisin. Benny, at first welcoming everything with the. enthusiasm he would accord to a circus, soon sniffed his disdain as at a show that had gone stale. Of them all, perhaps Mrs. Hattie was the only rne that found in it any real joy and comfort. Even Bessie, excited and interested as she was, failed to respond with quite the en- Rats Swipe Condensed Milk Right in Front of Depuuty Sheriff Where is the condensed milk going to? is the question that is bothering Pat Welsh, deputy county sheriff, on guard at the store of the Douglas County Consumers' league at 4920 South Twenty-fourth street. That is, the question was troubling Pat until yesterday, when he saw two huge rats, each rolling away a can of .condensed milk out the back door. Pat rubbed his eyes, or so he says, and took after the rats, but they were too quick for even a deputy sheriff. The rats are so nmuerous about the permises, Pat avers, that every eve ning the neighbors gather round to watch them give free wrestling exhibi tions on the sidewalk in front of the store. Assignment has been made of the stock of the Douglas County Con sumers' league and the store is closed temporarily until the creditors meet to appoint an assignee. Meanwhile the rodents reign supreme. Winspear Squatters Agree to Search for Niw Homes Mayor Smith, City Commissioner Towl and City Attorney Weaver visited Winspear Triangle on Monday night and negotiated what they be lieve will result in an amicable solu tion of this vexatious squatter problem. Twenty-six residents are involved. Nearly all agreed to move without litigationand the city officials prom ised to assist them to find new loca tions within their means and to haul their household goods without charge.

Grand Jury Will Convene in Omaha on September Three Federal officers are sending sum mons to scores of witnesses to appear at the grand jury, which will con vene in Omaha September 3. lhe same jury wil be cal ed that tried the cases during the last ses st6h of fedewl court.

Mrs. Hattie saw every reporter, talked freely of "dear Cousin Stanley" and his wonderful generosity, and ex plained that she would go into mourn ing, of course, if she knew he was really dead. She sat for two new portraits for newspaper use, besides graciously posing for staff photo graphers whenever requested . to do so. And she treasured carefully every scrap of the printed interviews or ref erences to the affair that she could find. She talked with the townspeo ple, also, and told Mr. Smith how fine it was that he could have some thing really worth while for his book. Mr. Smith, these days, was keeping rather closely to his work, especially when reporters were in evidence. He had been heard to remark, indeed, that he had no use for reporters. Cer- tainy he fought shy of those investi gating the f-ulton-Blaisdell- legacy. He read the newspaper accounts, though, most attentively, particularly the ones from Chicago that Mr. Nor ton kindly sent him sometimes. It was in one of these papers that he found this paragraph: There seems to be really nothing more that can be learned about the extraordinary Stanley G. Fulton Blaisdell affair. The bequests have been paid, the Blaisdells are reveling in their new wealth, and Mr. Fulton is still unheard from. There is noth ing now to do but to await the open ing of the second mysterious packet two years hence. This, it is under stood, is the final disposition of his estate; and if he is really dead, such will doubtless prove to be the case. There are those, however, who, re membering the multimillionaire's well known eccentricities, are suspecting him of living in quiet retirement some where, laughing in his sleeve at the tempest in the teapot that he has cre ated; and that long before the two years are up, he will be back on Chi cago's streets, debonair and smiling as ever. The fact that so little can be found in regard to the South American exploring expedition might give color to this suspicion; but where, oh, where, on this terrestrial ball could Mr. Stanley G. Fulton find a place to live in unreported retire ment? Mr. Smith did not show this para graph to the. Blaisdells. He destroyed the paper containing it, indeed," promptly and effectually with a fur tive glance over his shoulder as he did so. It was at about this time. too. that Mr. Smith began to complain of his eyes and to wear smoked glasses. He said he found the new snow glar ing. "But you look so funny, Mr. Smith," said Benny, the first time he saw him. ''Why, I didn't hardly know you!" Uidn t you, Bennyr asked Mr, Smith, with suddenly a beaming countenance. "Oh, well, that doesn't matter, does it?" And Mr. Smith gave an odd little chuckle as he turned away, (Continued Tomorrow.; ELEVATOR CAGE CRUSHES HEAD OF RAY CARLIN Boy Sixteen Years of Age In stantly Killed by Elevator in the McGraw Electrical Company Building. Ray Carlin, 16 years of age, living with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. R.

He had been cmplr cd by the Mc Graw company and had just startel to work a few hours before the acci dent. He was employed on the third floor, according to C. A.

One Pint of Whisky Gets Ryan Into a Peck of Trouble Peter Ryan, who (told the police that he lives at the Oxford hotel, is satisfied that a little whisky is a dangerous thing. He admitted that he bought it in Omaha but refused to divulge the name of the person from whom he purchased it. "Slip us the 'info' Ryan, and maybe the judge will be easy on you," suggest ed one of the detectives. "Nothin" stirrin'" replied Ryan, "I'll take what's comin' to me, but I won't 'squawk,' see?"

Prison Camp of Old Now is Rest Station for Yankees Soldiers of the American expedi tionary forces in France have some queer rest camps, according to Fritz J. Poch, Omaha boy in the 341st aero squadron, who is now over there. Writing to his sister, Miss Frances Poch, cashier at the Paxton hotel, he says; This camp and the city in which it is located is famous in history. The rest camp was once one of the prison camps of one of the most noted war riors of old. "High stone walls surround it and underneath is a mysterious and grue some labyrinth of tunnels and dun geons. The whipping posts where recalcitrants were whipped for dis ciplinary purposes and the old stocks where malefactors were pilloried in mediaeval days are still standing."

LOOMIS UNABLE TO DO ANY WORK FOR TWO MONTHS Was Helpless with Rheumatism and Lot Sixty Pounds Tanlac Brings Relief. "1 was so awfully rundown thai during my illness I lost sixty pounds in about eight months, but since starting on Tanlac I have regained fifty pounds and am still putting on weight," said Louis Loomis, who lives at 2510 Davenport street, the other day. "My trouble was inflammatory rheumatism." he continued, "that started first in my .right leg, and soon spread all over my body till my arms and legs ached so and were so swollen that I could hardly use them. In fact I was in sucha terrible condition and suffered so much agony that I was was all but help less and for two months couldn't do a lick of work. I went to the hos pital for a month, came back home some better but had a relapse and then went back to the hospital tlje second time in worse shape than al first. I stayed there for seven weeks, and when I came out again I couia barely get around but was still too weak to do much of anything. I fell off till I was but a shadow of my former self and it looked like, do what I would, I just couldn't build myself up again. "One of my friends who lives on South Twelfth street told me how Tanlac had helped him, so I got me a bottle to try. Soon after I began taking it my appetite started off with a rush and in a little while I was eating all the meat and bread and vegetables I wanted and my food was doing me good. The swellings went down, the aches and pains in my body and limbs disappeared and I was able to get around better. As I continued to taka- Tanlac I grew stronger and took on weight till now I am almost up to my old standard. I sleep as sound as a log all night and get up in the mornings feeling as fresh and as lively as a fellow half my age. That awful rheumatism has about all been driven out of mv svs- Ltem and I am in better shape today man i nave Deen m a long time."
