CARLOTTA IS THRILLED
' By LILY WANDEL.
Carloto sighed, half happily, half
regrrettuliy. Mie was to be married
next day at 11 o'clock in the morn
ing; it was just 7 now, the beginning
of her last evening of single life.
And it promised to be the counter
part of all the evenings of her life as
tar back as she -could remember a
nice quiet evenintr reading or sew
ing, or a lukewarm pleasant time
with some friends. There was not
one evening in her whole life that
stood out vitally, that sent little
thrills down her spine or made her
pulse beat the least bit faster when
she thought of it.
She stretched out her young, well
formed arms in a little gesture of
longing and impatience, not for the
morrow to come, but for the tire
some evening to eirflo It flashed
through her mind yfnat she had been
denied the exciting moment when a
man proposes, for Leslie, living at a
distance, had done his courting and
proposing by mail. . It had come
about so very gradually that when a
letter arrived asking her to be his
wife there had not been the least
gasp, of surprise.
She had met him last summer or
her vacation in the mountains, where
he had been staying with his invalid
mother. There had not been the
faintest suggestion of courtship then,
not as much as a walk without his
mother. , And Leslie did not dance,
Carlotta could not remember that
he had ever touched her hand ex
cept to shake hands when they said
goodby. ,
His mother had opened the corre-spondence--and
when rheumatism
prevented her writing her son had
taken it over for her. Not till after
his mother's death did -his letters be
come gradually more intimate, and
even after they were formally en
gaged there were no thrilling love
phrases. yYet Carlotta knew from
the sincere words he wrote that he
loved her truly and would make- a
devoted and faithful husband. She
remembered how kind and consid
erate he had been of his mother, she
knew she could always depend upon
him and above all, there was no
doubt in her heart that, she loved
him. .
Her life, as she .reviewed it now,
had been a drab-colored affair, not
unhappy, rather' pleasant but cull.
A auiet. even childhood and girl
hood, then the passing of her par
ents, her coming to the city, pbtain
ing a position as secretary to a phil
anthropist, a pleasant, unexciting
occupation. She made friends easily,
she never was lonely, had plenty of
invitations from nice people. It had
all been So pale-colored, so even,
just bordering on monotony. "Car
lotta is so refined, always calm and
collected," , she had overheard a
friend say. It was true, she con
fessed to herself, it was what at
tracted Leslie to her.
Sse realized that her married life
would be a replica of her placid
single existence. Leslie had pictured
the sleepy little village, his old dig
nified home, the regular routine of
his work and pleasures to her in his
well written letters. - ,..
Carlotta rose, went to the window
and -looked down in the 'street be
low," studied the faces of passers-by.
She searched eagerly for the features
that expressed emotion, showed ex
citement. The calm, refined, digni
fied types did not interest her.
"Here I have lived five years in
this great metropolis and its life has
never touched me! I could .have lived
in a drowsy little village for all the
thrills I get! "Just for the fun of it
I'd like to see how I look with hair
in buns over the ears and
A half hour later Carlotta viewed
herself again, "Carlotta Pellem,
Oh, you wicked girl! You do look
five years: younger, but oh. so tempt
ing." Tt was the truth, she looked
like another person, a very roguish,
attractive girl, she then donned
her best hat and tilted it coqnettishly
fever one ear. She admired the re
sult in the mirror very much and
laughed and flirted with her pretty
reflection. Then, suddenly, "What
if I went out like this I fonder if
I wdTSld have'some excitement?"
Then she remembered that it was
her very last chance for some thrills,
Tomorrow was her wedding day.
With a reckless little laugh she
found her gloves and decided to try
it and see what would happen.
A little latershe was on the city's
fashionable promenade, the natural
glow of excitement on her cheeks
quite out-doing the rouge she had
dabbed on. She stepped buoyantly
along in the ever-flowing stream of
people, no definite destination in
mind, consciousef men giving her
tentative glances. She was slightly
frightened by their advances, not
quite sure if she could control a
situation that her answering smile
might bring. '
Near a large hotel she noticed a
broad shouldered man, strangely
familiar, he turned--she would. have
passed across the avenue to be en
veloped by a protecting crowd but
he recognized her at once and came
forward with wide-opety amazed
eyes, embarrassed.
Carlotta would have willingly had
the street open and engulf her than
meet Leslie in her adventurous mas
querade. She could see the mortifi
cation in his eyes.
"Oh Leslie," she managed to
choke out between dry lips, "I
thought you were not coming in
till morning?" '
He made some kind of an inco
herent reply and fell in step with
her.
In silence they walked along; she
felt, the stern disapproval, his disap
pointment Almost frantically she
tried to pull her hat to a straight,
sober line, but in vain,' it was pinned
fast She longed to rub the red from
hher lips and cheeks with her hand-
i t. . . a ' - t
jcercnier, dui iearea 10 moruiy ner
nance stillimore. . she glanced side
ways at him, he looked away he
was ashamed of her!
The blood rushed to her face, her
heart pounded, she caught the re
flection of her face in a shop mirror.
She was excited, wildly excited, her
eyes shone like stars 1 Thrilled, ex
cited, that did not express how she
felt She saw her wedding day fade
away, the lovsly home in the village

timate plans never;, materialized,
everything lostl Lost, her life's hap
piness for the sake of a silly idea, a
whim. Hot, repentant tears filled
her eyes, but it was all too late. Any
minute Leslie would speak She
knew quite well what he would say.
"Carlotta," little chills ran down
her spine when he spoke, "I can see
you did not expect me. I have em
barrassed you by coming- sooner
than I wrote I would. It was a sud
den whim, Carlotta He stopped
and she walked, Jrembling with emo
tion and tense ' expectation, at his
side, dreading to hear what he would
say next
"How can J explain, tell you? I
had no intention of looking you up
tonight, Carlotta. I was restless, I
longed for excitement,- something
different front the 'even, sober years
of my whole life-Carlotta, can you

She snuggled her hand through his
arm ,and whispered happily, "Leslie,

(BY ARTHUR M. EVANS.)
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington, Oct' 14. Forty-five
per cent of the increase in popula
tion through alien immigration in
1920 was made up of English, Scotch,
Irish and Welsh. These groups did
not come all from the British Isles.
for the figures include those coming
from Canada, which was an impor
tant contributor, but they serve to
indicate the changes now progress
ing in the sources of our immigra
tion. Uo to 20 years or so ago the
peoples of western and northern
turooe predominated in tne noes
that washed up to Ellis Island. Then
southern and eastern Europe became
the great source of the mixture for
the melting pot. During the fiscal
year ended last June 30, western
Europe swung back to a place it had
not held for a generation or more as
the source whence originated the
bulk of our alien increase
Todav was issued what the bureau
of immigration designates a "table
by races," showing the increase or
decrease in population by arrival and
departure of aliens for 1920, not by
countries but by stock's The statis
tics run up to July 1 and they in
clude both immigrant and non-immigrant
classes, the latier defined
as those who do not migrate for
permanent residences. They show

"Hindrance to Production
At Present Time, Op
erators Say,
New York; Oct 14. There will be
no serious coal shortage in any part
of the country this year, provided or
dinary care is exercised by consum
ers, 'it was predicted here today at
the conference of the National Coal
association, which comprises two
thirds of the bituminous coal produc
ers of the United States.
The operators, however, declared
that in order to keep the markers
supplied, steady work at the mines
and sufficient supply of railway cars
also would be required.
At this time, it was stated, bitu
minous operators wefe getting only
about 25 to 30 per cent of the openJ
top cars needed.
' A special committee, which has
been working with various co-operative
agencies to prevent a winter fuel
shortage, reported that the Interstate
Commerce commission, railways, big
coal dealers and others, were co
operating to increase production and

tion facilities. .
In- order that the northwest may
be protested, an emergency order,
similar-to that provided for New
England deliveries last year, has
been applied; it was made known.
The Interstate. Commerce commis
sion has requested the railways to
move 4,000 cars of coal a day into
that territory until December. These
movements, it wis said, are capable
of putting into that section 200.000
tons of oa! a day, hut up to last
week the railways fell short of the
specified number of cars. The rail-,
way men and Interstate Commerce
commission then held a meeting and
assurance was given that between
now and December 1 the northwest,
will Veceive 4,000 cars of foal daily.
When the north we?K is supplied,
the operators and railways will then
be in a position to supply other sec
tions of the country before Nthe ex
treme cold weather begins, it wan
said. The most serious shortage
now is in the middlewest, the operat

through a systematic distribution, are 1
getting enough coal to meet their de
