Washingon, Sept 19. Senator h Harding stepped on the dministra 1 lion's sort foot yesterday in his speech at Marion when he, assailed fn policy as to Hayti, and Santo Do mingo. . At the Statp department officials we're vehement in their denunciation of the republican psidential nomi nee for reflecting on the govern ; ment's efforts to aid the struggling island republic and Secretary Daniels joined with' his former assistant in defending the government's policy. , Officially the State department ' made no comment on the issue raised ; by Senator Harding, but unofficially let it be known what was thought about the utterances pi the republi can nomines on the subject. "Cheap," ''disgusting" and other ' adjectives were appliedtbydiigh offi cials in referring to. Mr, Harding s leicences to the administration ppl icy in the islands, attributing his at t?.cfc to a desire to injure the adminis tration without investigation into the truth of charges made. Officials declared-that the United States was carrying-out in Hayti and hanto Domingo a practice or tne Monroe doctrine that was advocated i hv former President Roosevelt, a i practice that other nations would cn- tfagc in II Ific uiiiicu otaits uiu ,t6 protect their nationals and their nationals interests. .

' f " Court Accept Testimony Of Prisoner In a Trance Londoity Sept. l9.T-Should evi 'dence obtained by hypnotic means be used in a criminal prosecution? This question has arisen in Eng-l land bs a result of a Leeds judge ac ' cepting the testimony of at well known mental specialist as to a Itatement made to him by a prisoner ' while- in a trance. , Dr.Bcrnard Hollander, the fam ous mental specialist, declares him self as emphatically against such a precedent "There are some things hypnotism cannot do" he says. "My experience has been that a man who hrfs made up his mind noV to disclose certain facts pannot be induced to reveal them under hypnotic stig . i gestion. This is proved by the fact that it has never been possible to -U extract information abouf secret so- cieties or orders- " v "Hypnotism cannot make, girls ' change their lovers. .

He longed for his bride of a day, who is virtually 1eing held a prisoner by her father.

Sunday a family conference was held.

Rail Ticket Scalpers Again Become Active Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. Chicago, Sept. 18. Scalping of railroad tickets which had practi cally been stamped out by state laws and by the activities of the rail roads, -has again sprung into for midable life,, since the roads have been turned back to their owners.

It was in 1792 that Rouget de Lisle,a young officer of engin eers, was billeted ' at Strasburg, where he became a frequent vis itor at the home of the Baron de Diedrich, mayor of the city. His host, who had formerly ' been rich, had become poor during the calamities of the revolution, and one night there was nothing for supper but some cold ham and camp bread. ' "Never mind," said De Died rich, "'food may be wanting, but enthusiasm is plentiful. We have one more bottle of Rhine wine in 'the cellar. Let us drink it to lib erty and to the country then De Lisle must draw from the last drops one of those bymns of his that will carry his own ardent feelings tq the soul of the peo ple." But apparently all the young officer's efforts were in vain.' In spiration was lacking, and it was not until he had returned to his lodgings that he felt the first flush of real pride in the music which flowed from his fingers. Slowly at first, and then more rapidly the melody came, fairly sweeping him off his feet with its' intensity. In the morning after a night spent before the piano De Lisle called at the Diedrich home, and it wa there that He played for the first time his air which was destined to be known ground the world. Only a few month? later the Baron de Died rich heard it for the last time, as he was being marched to the guillotine. MeanwhiJlgr however, the new song had spread through Stras burg like wild fire. Marseilles ruled that it should be sung at the opening and adjourning of the clubs, and it was for this rea son that it took the name of the Marseillaise hymn. Its own au thor heard it echo from the passes of the Jura, as, with a price; upon his head, he fled from his enemies. Before the year was out. the Marseillaise had swept through France, and, despite numerous efforts of the royalists to forbid it, it remains the na tional air.

It seemed to 'take Rusty Wren's wife a long time to recover front the fright that Jasper Jay had given "Perhaps you will like this better 1" . he shouted. her.' He had amused himself by dropping cherries upon the rooi of her house But the trick had not amused the Wren family in the least. ' Even after Johnnie Green jihad driven the blue-coated rascal away from the docryard Mrs. Rusty Wren was all aflutter. She jumped at the slightest noise. And she was so "nervous that Rusty soon saw that it was, a great effort for her to go abroad for food for their hungry tamily. - . "You must stay right here at home and rest," he urged her. "I'll find enough for 4he children to eat and for you too," -he said manfully. And I .really there was nothing else that his, wife could do; for hjr nerves were In a frightful state. So Rusty Wren took up his task cheerfully. . He found it no e3sy one, either. Feeding six growing youngsters had kept both their pa rents working every minute all day long, because the children were al ways clamoring for more food. And now they seemed half starved, , for they had had nothing-"to eat all the time that Jasper Jay had kept Rusty and his wife hiding in their house. Rusty Wren, however, was not one to complain, no matter what happened. ,And every day from dawn till dark he hurried out of the house, to find some toothsome insect and bring it . home to drop it into somebody's yawning mouth. , Indeed, he was so busy feeding his family that he scarcely had a chance to eat anything himself. So he grew 'quite thin. And though he still sang as. merrily as ever, his wife noticed the change that had come over him. Naturally, that made her worry.

Jack Redmond had just come home from his first year at Prince ton or perhaps it wa3 Harvard. At least, everyone at Silver Beach knew he had just come from some college which , he made ho bones about ad mitting was the finest in the world when it comes to turning out real men. . Of ..course, the mothers of sons who Were likewise emerging out6fvtheir first college year smiled a Bit indulgently, knowing quite well that their Own sons wore the "same air of aiperiority in regard to their own . particular selection of a spot wherein to imbibe a few morsels of learning and win for themselves, if possible, a , place on the foot ball team. Mrs. . Prindiville smiled broadly when her daughter Elinor passed with Jack in her wake.- There were many nice boys at Silver Bcatfi, but the Redmonds had not been as cor dial to the Prindivilles as the latter would have liked. Since Jack had evinced such fondness for the daughter of the house of Prindi ville, Mrs. Redmond had been seen conversing with the mother of that very charming young lady in terms of intiifiacy. Mrs. Prindiville had no way of "knowing that Mrs. Red mond, wbife not exactly approving of herson's choice, considered, Eli nor much more desirable as a sum mer fancy than a certain little blonde girl whose name was Nancy and ,of whom no one seemed to know anything other than that she lived at the best hotel with her brother. Auto-intoxication. The averafee young man of 20 is a victim of the auto-intoxication of gallantry. Add to this a year's training for the foo ball squad which leaveshim in the pink of physical condition, and you have the pep which prompted Jack Redmond to demonstrate his gallantry by sheer physical force. He nvas sitting on the beach with Edwin Delmar discussing the girls at the beach when the name of Elinor Prindiville was brought into the conversation. Jack's cheeks took on a flush that showed through the tan and his eyes shohe as he held forth at length on the charms and virtues of Miss Elinor. I T think you're all wrong abouf that girl," said Edwin quietly. "She's pretty enough, but why rave so much about a plain ordinary girl that 19 no prettier than Enid Westly or Mary French?" , Hero to Fore. Jack's gallantry was constantly on the alert for an opportunity to assert itself. As a matter of fact, he was much larger than Edwin, but the chance was-too good to be over looked. "Are you casting aspersions on Miss Redmond?" demanded Jack, not ouite sure that aspersions was the word he meant "Aspersions the devil," retorted Edwin, a little satisfied with the phrase he had just uttered "But if you ask me I'll tell you that I don't think she's ,one, two, three to the rest of the girls when it comes to looks." ' That was enough for Jack. He caught Edwin under the chin with a fist of iron and sent him sprawling over the sand.' ' "Yotr great big idiot." said Edwin when he regained his feet "What do you think this is a prize fight? And will you be man enough to tell me'just why you did thlt since'you and I both know I'm not big enough to knock the dickens out of you. ' Watch Your Step. A middle-aged man had ap proached the boys and. stood close by while Jack Redmond told Edwin in rather emphatic phrases that no man could "talk about a woman in fnat way in his presence and get away with i. . "All I said was that she wasn't as good looking as the other girls and I meant it. You've got a rather poor idea of chivalry, Jack, and some day you re going to meet someone who'll convince you of it." v. As Edwin moved away the older man. drew up to Jack. "It is a very commendable thing lor a man to protect a lady s name if the occa sion arises. Your triena. seemed to think you were a trifle hasty." "He was knocking Miss Prindi ville. Perhaps you've seen her. No man can tell me she's not the pret tiest girl at the beach and keep both feet on the ground." "I shall not take issue with you, al though I may have another opinion," replied the man quietly. "There is no doubt, however, that Mjss Prindi ville is a charming young lady, I've noticed you with her considerably." - Fond of Her. Jack's chest expanded.

I awoke to physical comfort, mental misery, when the exhausted sleep, into, which I had fallen after the departure of my fSther au.d Ma jor Grantland had held me Mr sev eral hours. The windows of the screened "sun parlor" in which I slept had been opened to their fullest capacity by someone, and jthe wonderful breath of the pines outside came tolne with healing and relaxing comfort. The moon rode high in the heavens, and the towering, stately, longleafed pines again held the semblance of palm trees. . . As I revelled in the beauty of yie night and place I felt vitality return ing to me with every breath of the crisp air. But I couldn't rid myself of the dull ache in my heart which always comes to me when Dicky alid 1 have quarrelled. And this time my unhappiness was intensified, by the morbid fear I entertained that in some fashion Grace Draper would come back into Dicky's life. - Agonizing Suspicion. I faced my own soul frankly. I feared this woman as I feared no other human being. I feared her possible power over Dicky, her malicious hatred iof mc, and was ter rorized evtn by. the chances of her doing me ' some" physical . injury. I believed her capable of anything. felt a rush of warm thankfulness to ward Hugh Grantland, who not only divined my fear, but shared it, and evidently had exercised his remark able secret influence in high quarters to have hef removed from such close proximity to me as her stay in'Ccdar Crest would entail. But thoughts of Hugh Gotland's consideration were soon banished by unreasonable worry over Dicky's ab sence. It was evidently late in the evening I lifted my arm and looked at the illuminnated dial of my wrist watch, but found that it had stopped, and that I had no means of knowing how , late it was. Where coula Dicky be? ' Hugh Grantland had said that I need not fear to go anywhere in the morning. That meant, I inferred, she would leave on the. early train, but that as yet she was -in Cedar Crest. Had Dicky taken literally the sardonic permission I had flung at him in the height of our recrimi nations? Was he even now talking to her, looking- again at the faultless face, into he wonderful 'eyes which had so nearly wrecked our happi ness? .' i i If there be any more torturing emotion than that of jealousy . I can not imagined it. I lay tense, with cienched palms, it seemed to me for hours, while jealousy and terror and anger had their way with me. Mother Graham Appears. A tentative knock on the door brought me back to commonplace ness with a jerk. I knew the knock, it was the one my mother-in-law gives when she wishes to know if anyone is awake. Ludicrously enough, she never waits for an aiu swer, but pushes the door widdopen, usually with noisv vigor. She made no exception in this case, but pushed the door wide open and marched in.
