GALVESTON TRIBUNE: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1913.
Two additional lives have been lost
that the United States may have an
aviation service. There seems to be no
way in which such sad fatalities may
be prevented. The human equation is
a fallible thing even under the most
perfect conditions. About all the gov-
ernment can do under the circum-
stances is to see that the officers who
take up aviation are paid a salary com-
mensurate with the risks.

and recommended a Locker-Lampson
sandwich, whose contents the girl told
me were secret, but it proved to be
wholly palatable. As I drank my tea
and ate the sandwich I surveyed the
decorated menu card with interest and
found pleasurable excitement in discov-
ering an item directing attention to
“Pickles a la Hezekiah, 15 cents.” The
delightful Hezekiah must, then, have
impressed herself upon the deus ex
machina of the Asolando on her brief
day there, thus to have won this recog-
nition. And further on I noted, among
the desserts, Peche Cecilie with even
greater interest and satisfaction.
Cecilia occupied my mind now. The
visit of the furious suitors to my office
had stirred in me thoughts and aspira-
tions that had never known harborage
in my breast before. The presumption
of those fellows had exceeded any-
thing I had known in my contact with
human kind, and instead of frighten-
ing me away from Hopefield Manor
they had called my own attention to
the strategic importance of my pres-
ent position as a guest in Miss Octa-
via’s house.
As these thoughts ran thsegh my
mind I was finishing my Pece Cecilie
(I spurn all sweets ordinarily) when I
became interested in the unusual con-
duct of a young woman who had en-
tered the front door briskly and walk-
ed with a business-like air to the cash-
ier's desk. The girl within the wicket
rose promptly, opened the screen and

surged within him. He broke out "fu-
riously, beating the air with his fist;
then he controlled himself with pain-
ful effort.
“You insult me, but my personal
grievances must wait,” said Dick bro-
kenly; “but, speaking for the commit-
tee, I wish to say that your attentions
to the young lady whom you have
dared, sir, to name are obnoxious to
us.”
“Nothing less than that!” added
Shallenberger.
“We will not stand for it,” growled
Ormsby’s heavy bass.
“Mr. Shallenberger,” I replied even-
ly, “as a member of the great Hoosier
school of novelists I have the most
profound respect for your talents. My
office boy is dead to the world for
weeks after the appearance of a novel
from your pen. But your interference
in my private affairs is beyond all rea-
son. And as for you, Mr. Ormsby, I
dare say your knit goods are worthy of
the fame of the pentup Utica from
which you come. But to you and all
of you I bid defiance. I return to
Hopefield Manor by the 4:14 express.”
I rose and bowed coldly in dismissal,
but the trio stood their ground stub-
bornly.
“I tell you, sir, our organization is
complete!” declared Dick. “We sign-
ed a gentleman’s agreement only last
night for the express* purpose of ex-
cluding you, and you cannot enter as a
competitor. You are only an outsider,
and we don’t intend to have you inter-
fering with our affairs.”
“By the pink left ear of Venus,” I
blurted, “is it a trust?”
“You put it coarsely, Mr. Ames,
but"—
“A suitors’ trust? Then, if I read the
newspapers correctly, your organiza-
tion is against public policy and in
contravention of the anti-trust law.

A former mayor of Atlantic City, N.
J., must pay a fine and serve a year’s
sentence in prison for corrupt prac-
tices; a former mayor of Syracuse, N.
Y., has just been indicted by the grand
jury for a 'similar offense. There is
every indication that the public con-
science of American citizenship is
awakening to the evils of municipal
politics, just as it already has i been
aroused by the nefarious methods of
“big business.”
In putting the seal of his displeasure

ture of their business. It was with a
distinct sensation of surprise that I
read the names respectively of Percival
B. Shallenberger, Daniel P. Ormsby
and John Stewart Dick.
“Show the gentlemen in,” I said
promptly, greatly to the disgust of my
assistant, who retired to deal with
several clients whom I had passed in
the reception room fiercely walking the
floor.
I had imagined all the suitors estab-
lished at the Prescott Arms. As the
three appeared clad in light automobil-
ing coats I could not forbear a smile
at their grim appearance. Shallen-
berger. the novelist, and Ormsby, the
knit goods manufacturer, were big
men. Dick, the Nebraska philosopher,

MULCTING THE PEOPLE.
Waco Times-Herald.
It is related that the present czar
of Russia was puzzled to know why
a guard was regularly stationed at a
certain place in the royal gardens,
there being no apparent need for such
service. An inquiry was instituted and
it was discovered that many years ago
the then reigning monarch was so de-
lighted with the roses on a certain
bush that he ordered for them a special
guard. That particular bush had long
ago disappeared, but the guard re-
mained. . -
In the early days of the American
republic, when travel was by stage-
coach, it cost something like twenty
cents a mile going and coming from
the national capital, and so that sum
was voted to the members of the con-
gress. Now it costs not more than
two cents a mile to go to Washington,
and the time was when many members
had their pockets full of passes. But
the old rate remains.
an insurgent has crept into your organ-
ization and incurred the displeasure of
the regulars?”
“We ruled him out,” Shallenberger
burst forth, “because he was a for-
eigner and not entitled to a place
among freeborn Americans’ That is
one reason, and, for another, the col-
ors of his half hose were an offense
to me personally.”
“And for another reason,” interposed
Ormsby, “he had no money with which
to pay his board at the Prescott Arms.
For this just cause the landlord ejected
him shortly after breakfast this morn-
ing.”
“Then there is already a rift in the
lute!” I returned. “No trust of suitors
is stronger than its weakest link. My
hand is raised against your unrighteous
compact, and I am in the fight to stay!
Go back to the Prescott Arms, gentle-
men, and assure your associates in this
hideous compact of my most distin-
guished consideration and tell them to
go to the devil."
I had gone to the St. Parvenu hotel
to call upon a Washington lady who
had been making life a burden to my
assistant and on coming out into Fifth
avenue shortly after I bethought me of
the Asolando tea roofh. My interview
with the committee of the suitors had
driven from my mind practically every
consideration and every interest not
centered in Hopefield Manor. My
thoughts turned gratefully to the Aso-
lando, where only a few days ago I
had been precipitated into the strangest
adventures my eventless life had
known.
A strange face was visible at the
cashier’s desk as I entered the tea
room. _ I passed on. finding the place

CHAPTER XIV.
The Riddle of the Sibyl’s Leaves.
P Y question as to which Cecilia
gE I should find in the library
k"M was quickly answered. Her
frank smile, the candor of
her eyes, confessed a new tie between
us. We were becoming conspirators
within the main conspiracy, whatever
its character might be.
“As to Providence and the cook, what
luck?” I asked.
“Oh, I managed that very easily. I
ran into some friends who were going
abroad for the winter. They have a
staff of unusual servants and were
anxious to keep them together until
their return. I promptly engaged them
all, and they are even now installed.”
“Well, I have had an adventure of
my own,” I remarked, after expressing
my relief that she had solved the serv-
ant difficulty with so much ease.
“Three gentlemen representing the
suitors’ trust now maintaining head-
quarters at the Prescott Arms, warned
me solemnly to keep off the grass. In
other words, I am not to interfere with
their designs upon the heart of Miss
Cecilia Hollister.”
She flung open a fan, held it at arm’s
length and scrutinized the daffodils
that were traced upon it.
“So they dared you?”
“So they dared me. And I took the
dare.”
“Why?”
Her eyes met mine gravely, but be-
hind her pretty pout a smile lurked
delightfully.
“If I should tell you now it would be
flirting, which is a sin.”
“I had imagined, Mr. Ames, that sort
of thing came easy to you. But if it’s
sinful, of course”-—
“But you do not rule me out! You
give me a chance”—
My earnestness caused her manner
to change suddenly. Her beautiful
gravity came like a swift falling of
starlit twilight. I had never been so
happy as at this moment. Preposterous
as were the circumstances of my pres- '
ence in the house the juxtaposition of
Cecilia Hollister gave me unalloyed de-
light.
“I want to serve you now. hereafter
and always,” 1 added. “These men
can have no claim upon you greater
than that of any other man who dares!”
“No, none whatever,” she replied
firmly.
“And the mystery, the whole story.
is in the little silver book!”
She started, , flushed, and then laugh-
ter visited her lips and eyes. The book
was not in her hands nor in sight any-
where, but I felt that I was on the
right track and that the little trinket
had to do with her plight and her com-
pact with her aunt. Best of all, the
fact that I had chanced upon this clew
gave her happiness. There was no de-
bating that.
“You had best have a care, Mr. Ames.
You have spoken words that would be
treasonable if they came from me, and
I must not countenance them.”
“But you will tolerate from me words
that you would not permit another to
speak? Do I go too far?”
She bent her head to one side, with
the slightest inclination, as of a rose
touched by a vagrant wind.
“If I could only half believe in you,”
she said, “you might really serve me
BUSINESS MANAGEMENT OF CITIES.
El Paso Herald.
Ideas on practical good government
for cities are being turned over and
over in men’s minds, and results are
bound to come. Thinking of better
ways accomplishes something. The
National Municipal League, in session
at Toronto, Canada, endorses a plan
which is known as the “city manager
plan.” A commission is elected with
only representative and legislative
powers, the members to give but a
part of their time to city affairs; the
executive officer is a city manager
hired from anywhere and holding of-
fice at the pleasure of the commission.
Besides Phoeniz, Ariz., two or three
towns in North and outh Carolina, Day-
ton and Springfield, Ohio. La Grande,
Ore., and a Minnesota town or two are
trying city managers.
The plan, based on ordinary good
business practice, makes one man re-
sponsible and permits one man to carry
out his Ideas, but there is no such
chance as now for the mayor to turn
himself into material for a future
bronze statue with a splashing foun-
tain and a bronze tablet saying what
the mayor did for the town.
hind which I sat with a stride and
manner that advertised his belligerent
frame of mind.
“Mr. Ames,” he began, “we have
come here to speak for ourselves and
certain other gentlemen who are stay-
ing for a time at the Prescott Arms.”
“Gentlemen of the committee, wel-
come to our office,” I replied, greatly
amused by his ferocity.
My tone caused the others to draw
in defensively behind him.
“We want you to understand that
vour conduct in accompanying a lady
that I shall not name to the city is
an act we cannot pass in silence. Your
conduct in going to Hopefield Manor
was in itself an affront to us, but your
behavior this morning. passes a!
bounds. We have come, sir, to de-
mand an explanation!”
At a glance this was a situation I
dare not take seriously.
“Mr. Dick and gentlemen of the com-
mittee. you are meddlesome persons!”
I said.
“Meddlesome!” cried Dick heatedly
and leaning toward me across my desk.
“Do I correctly understand, sir, that
you mean to insult us?”
“Nothing could be further from my
purpose. But I cannot permit you to
imagine that I’m going to allow you to
beard me in my office and criticise my
conduct in regard to Miss Cecilia Hol-
lister or anybody else. As a philoso-
pher from the fertile corn lands of Ne-
braska I salute you with admiration;
as a critic of my ways and manners
I show you the door.”
This I did a bit jauntily, and I had.a
feeling that I was playing my part
well. But the young man before me
seemed to swel with the rase that
English suffragettes announce that
if an attempt is made to arrest Mrs.
Emmeilne Pankhurst on her return to
England that they are prepared to
make determined resistance. English
militants have shown remarkable re-
straint in refraining from the use of
methods dangerous to human life, and
it has been an interesting question, in
view of the phlegmatic attitude of the
British government, as to how long
they will continue to manifest that re-
gard.
The state of Texas will this year con-
tribute almost one-half of the rice
grown in the United States to aid in
giving the people something cheap and
nourishing in the way of food, and, -in-
cidentally, it may be said that had it
not been for the exceedingly heavy
rains that fell during the early portion
of the season, Texas would have pro-
duced more than a half of the entire
quantity grown in the United States.
There are over 800,000 acres of land de-
voted to the cultivation of rice in the
United States and a little over 300,000
acres on Texas land grow this grain.
The best rice fields of the state are
located along the gulf coast extending
over into Louisiana. Here it was that
some alert farmer believed a profitable
business could be inaugurated and his
faith in the land and the climate has
-been fully justified for year after year
the acreage has increased, this year
there being about 35,000 acres more
planted than last; next year a still
larger area will be sown in rice and
some of the enthusiastic growers pre-
dict that in this grain Texas will be-
fore many years take and hold the lead
as it has with cotton.
It was in the seventeenth century
that a sack of rice was brought from
Madagascar to Charleston, South Caro-
lina; the seed were distributed among
a number of farmers and planted, it
yielded so enormously that it at once
became one of the favorite crops and
for years the.Carolina grain was con-
sidered the best that came on. the
market. Later the cultivation was un-
dertaken by farmers of other state?
and Texas was one of the very latest to
undertake its cultivation. Today this
state not only raises more rice than
any other state in the union, but the
Texas rice has the reputation of being
the best grown.
Every writer on dietetics gives rice
a high place in the list of foods that
contain large proportion of nutritive
matter and its more extended use as a’
food is largely advocated. It is pointed
out that in India, China, Japan and Ko-
rea, rice constitutes the principal ar-
ticle of food and one Chinese writer
has even gone so far as to state that
the Chinese nation would be an impos-
sibility were it not for this grain.
Rice can be served in so many palat-
able forms that it must rank with eggs
as a stndard article of diet in the
American kitchen. It is a substitute
for bread, containing as it does such a
large percentage of starchy matter; it
can be used as a vegetable in the place
of potatoes, and it has proven to be
the most delicious served as a pudding
or in the shape of other sweetmeat
contrived by the enterprising pastry
maker. Then think of the important
part it plays in starting off the newly
married couple on their voyage of life.
Probably the greatest hindrance en-
countered to the more general use of
rice as a food is the indifference mani-
fested by the average cook in prepar-
ing it for the table; too often it is
either cooked to a consistency of gravel
or permitted to absorb so much water
that it becomes a thick paste, too much
resembling a dish of gruel to please
the palate of the healthy eater. Avoid-
ing these two extremes, a dish of rice
with each grain standing distinct, its
pure whiteness and pleasing odor pro-
vokes the appetite and if there be any
truth in the claim advanced by the
Als

It may puzzle some to know how Ger-
many maintains an army of nearly
1,000,000 men on an expenditure of
$302,000,000 per year, or about $300 per
soldier. The answer lies in the fact
that the various German kingdoms,
principalities, duchies, and free cities,
also contribute to the general fund.
Possibly the citizens of Germany are
unaware themselves as to the exact
amount of the leviathan sums which
are absorbed by the military. The
United States, with less than 100,000
men under arms spends roundly $100,-
000,000 per year on the army, or $1,000
per soldier. It is doubtful if Germany
gets off much easier.

effect upon the lofty minarets in which
my fancy now found lodgment. It

the contents of her till into the vis-
itor’s reticule. With a nod and a
smile and a moment’s careless survey
of the room, the girl departed, swing-
ing the reticule in her hand. A long
roll she carried under her arm con-
firmed my identification. It was Miss
Octavia Hollister’s Swedish maid, and
the roll beyond peradventure contain-
ed the plans she had obtained at Pep-
perton’s office.
The girl was well featured, neat of
figure and becomingly gowned, and as
I watched her leave the shop the light-,
ness of her step, something smooth
and flowing in her movements, inter-
ested me. I did not know what busi-
ness she had to be robbing the Aso-
lando money drawer, but it was alto-
gether possible that she was the Hope-
field ghost!
On the whole, -when I had finally
torn myself away from my assistant,
who made no attempt to conceal his
doubts as to my sanity, and had set-,
tied myself in the 4:14 express with
the afternoon papers I was fully satis-
fied with the day’s adventures. I had
told the coachman in the morning not
to trouble to meet me on my return,
and I engaged the village liveryman
to drive me to the house for hire.
“There’s a heap o’ talk in the vil-
lage,” he observed. “They do say the
old lady’s cracked, if I may so speak
of her, and that there’s ghosts in the
house. And the conduct of the gentle-
men at the Prescott is most remark-
able. The word’s passed that they’re
all dippy about the young Miss Hollis-
ter that lives with her aunt I reckon
all rich people are a bit cracked. It
appears to go with the money. Mr.
Bassford Hollister—he’s the old lady’s
brother—he’s just as bad as any of ’em.
Yesterday he sat in the village street
countin’ the number of people he saw
chewin’ gum. Told our doctor in the
village he was figurin’ the amount of
horsepower the American people put
into gum chewin’ every year and ex-
pects to find some way of usin’ it to
run machinery. It’s harmless, Doc
says. He calls it just the Hollister
idiosyncrasy, if that’s the word. But
I reckon it’s idiotsyncrasy all right I
wish you good luck of your place, sir.”
He evidently believed me to be some
sort of upper servant, and this added
to my joy of the day. With my good
humor augmented by the interview I
entered the house. A strange footman
admitted me, and I went to my room
at once without meeting any one else.
The man followed me with a pencil-
ed note, signed with Cecilia’s initials,
requesting my presence below as soon
as possible, as she wished to see me
before dinner. The thought that she
wished to see me at any time filled me
with elation, and her few lines,
scratched on a correspondence card,
were a pleasing addendum to our con-
versation of. the.mornine. Thefnding

CHAPTER XIII.
At the Asolando Again
N SET off at once for Pepperton’s
57 office, where I learned that the
M architect was out of town. But
his chief clerk greeted me cour-
teously. I told him frankly that I
wanted to look at the plans of Hope-
field Manor to enable me to learn the
exact lines of the chimneys. He con-
fessed surprise that they were causing
trouble and expressed regret that they
were not in the office.
“Miss Hollister sent for them this
morning, and I have just given them
to a young woman who bore a note
from her.”
I was taken aback to find that she
had anticipated me in my rush for the
plans of the house. Clearly I was
dealing with a woman who was not
only immensely amusing, but exceed-
ingly shrewd as well. Could it be pos-
sible after all that she was herself
playing ghost merely for her own en-
tertainment? She was capable of it.
But I had satisfied myself that she
could not have performed the tricks of |
which I had been the victim the night
previous unless she possessed some
rare vanishing power like that of the
East Indian mystics.
“May I ask who came for the
plans?”
“I judged the young woman to be a
maid, or perhaps she was Miss Hollis-
ter’s secretary.”
I had given little heed during my
short stay at Hopefield Manor to Miss
Hollister’s personal attendant. I had
passed her in the halls once or twice,
a young woman of twenty-five, I should j
say, fair haired and blue eyed. She
might herself be the ghost now that I
thought of it. But this seemed the
most unlikely hypothesis possible.
At my own office my assistant pounc-
ed upon me wrathfully. He was half
wild over the pressure of vexatious
business and had just been engaging
in a long distance conversation with a
country gentleman at Lenox which
had left him in bad temper. I was ex-
plaining to him the seriousness of my
errands at Hopefield, rather uncon-
vincingly, I fear, and the fact that I
must return at once when the office
boy entered my private room to say
that three gentlemen wished to see me
immediatelv. They had submitted
