LmIm 7he New Mayor Based on 6.ffBroadhurst's SuccessfM Plsy TIlE IAN OF TIfFIO "I wouldn't let a speech hue tat I get back to HIorrigan if I were you," returned Wainwright dryly. "Your career might suffer. Nothing (except. maybe. gratitude) is so bad as humor for spoiling a man's chances in busi ness or politics. A laugh costs more than people think. But, speaking of the election this fall, a reform wave or any cr'ange of city administration would smash our Borough Street rail way deal. To offset that, I've joined hands with Ilorrigan. If I can bring him to see things my way, he shall - have cash enough to buy all the honest voters he needs. He's coming here this noon to talk things over with me. Phelan's coming too." "Phelan? You mean the alderman of the Eighth? You'll have a pleasant little gathering. Perhaps you didn't know that Phelan and Horrigan have had a row and" "And that's why I'm bringing them - together here today. I want to patch up their quarrel if I can. I need them both. Phelan's a useful man." "But HIorrigan is boss of the organi zation. If you have him on your side, why do you bother about getting Phelan too?" "Yes, Horrigan is boss. He's fought his way up by bulldog tactics. He has no diplomacy-nothing but brute force. Now, Phelan has just as much force in his way, but he's as tricky as a fox too. I've known him ever since b he was chief of police. He's a danger ous man. If he's against us, he can make trouble. I want him. He's" "Judge Newman!" announced the butler. A whimsical frown crossed Wain wright's face, but cleared into a pass ably hospitable expression as a little gray haired man, with a solemn, weak face, trottcd pompously in on the heels of the butler's annorceement. LL "Good morning, judge," said the host es- pleasantly. "You don't know :Mfr. Gibbs, I think, of Gibbs, Norton & Co.? Judge Newman is my next door neigh bor on the left as you come from the - station, Gibbs. You must have no ticed the place-Queen Anne house, with" "Oh, he probably never gave it a glance," put in the judge. "A mere cot tage, that's all. When a man with my meager judicial salary has a social po sition to keep up and four daughters that aren't married and-Charles, you ean't realize what it means to have four unmarried" "No, I cannot," assented Wainwright quickly, "and from present signs I'm he not likely to. I hope Mrs. Newman is well ?" S The little judge's face grew doubly Important. ;e. "Extremely well, thank you," said he. "A wonderful woman! You've met her, Mr. Gibbs? No? But of course you have often heard By the way, Charles, it was she who told .'me to drop in z * on you this morning. Y o u " c see -- I - she - Mrs. Newman , is most anxious t Sfor me to come ":- r - up for re-elec- / tion this fall. "I thought you might t Mr. Horrigan,to say a word to Mr. whom I broach- Horrigan in my be ed the subject, half." doesn't quite seem to see it that way. h He doesn't want to have me renominat ed. I thought perhaps, as a personal tI favor to so old a friend, you might say h a word to Mr. Horrigan in my behalf." g "Of course I'll do what little I can. Horrigan will be here today. Drop in I a little after noon and I'll tell you how a my intervention turns out." a "Oh, thank you so much!" cried the ti judge, positively wriggling in his de-h light. "Mrs. Newman will be so pleas- it ed. And, by the way, won't you ask t( Perry why he never comes over to see y my daughters? Please ask him if he won't. I'm sure Mrs. Newman would be glad if he did. Well, till afternoon, ii then. Good morning." "Queer little rat!" observed Gibbs as a the judge bowed himself out. "Mrs. ye Newman must be a marvel if all he II says is"- h: "She is a wonder as a husband train- tl er. She's tamed him so he doesn't O know his soul's his own. A good little 5( man because he's never had a chance til to be otherwise. I'll speak to Horri- to gan about him, though. It's always I well to have a friend on the bench. One never can tell when"-- s But Gibbs was not listening. His to heavy face had lighted with a sudden la glow of eagerness. Turning to note the cause, Wainwright saw his niece re Dallas descending the stairs. Involun- ti4 tarily she halted as she reached the th threshold and saw Gibbs. Then, her da sense of hospitality triumphing over impulse, she came in and greeted her 5p uncle's guest with some show of cor diality. "Remember, Dallas," said Wain wright as he prepared to go into his fr office, "Gibbs is here only for the day. at I count on you to make his holiday as an pleasant as you can." He glanced cov- mi ertly at Gibbs, who had strolled to the window. Then the financier fowered NI his voice and said rapidly: mI -at I -rlease ne nice to miuos ror my sa.te, u," Dallas. I do a great deal for you, and >ur I don't often ask anything in return." ,pt. He patted her on the shoulder with a for gesture meant to be affectionate and sl- hurried into the adjoining office. )re Scarcely had the door closed when of Gibbs turned from the window, crossed ve the room to where Dallas stood and in ion his usual direct fashion said: iil- "You saw that" ied "The article in this morning's paper? ug Yes." all There was no confusion, no embar est rassment. neither in the clear, girlish are voice nor in the honest dark eyes that ne met Gibbs' so calmly. He went on with a shade less confidence. an "It annoys you?" int "Very much indeed." n't I"You can't feel worse about it than I ee do, Miss Wainwright. I" "You didn't write it yourself, then?" ,m "I? Of course not! How could you ;ch think" em "I didn't; I just wondered. Please see that the rumor is denied." ni- "Why should I? You are going to marry me some day, aren't you, Dal n las?" "Have I ever given you reason to think I would?" ie "You have let me keep on coming to te see you. You have" ch "I have told you that I don't care for you the way you want me to. I have great admiration and respect for you, but that is all. And it is not enough to marry on." an "It is enough for me. If I have your admiration and respect to start on I'll he soon make you love me." "You would be satisfied with so lit in- tle?" ss- "Yes. Knowing I could in time win tie more. You aren't the sort of girl who ak could marry a man if she didn't re els spect him-didn't admire him. You" "Perhaps I couldn't marry such a >St man. But perhaps I couldn't help lov ir. ing him." 0.? "Your chances for happiness would 'h- be better with me. Oh, Dallas, you be know I love you! You've kept me 10- waiting so long! Is it fair to either of se, us?" "I hesitate because I want to be fair I a to us both. For that reason I must ot- still ask you to wait." ny "But I've waited so long! Tell me >0- one thing: Is there any one else that" 'rs Steps, none too light, clattered down ou the stairs, and into the library bounced re a lad in tennis flannels. He was tall, well set up and good to look at and it seemed always to have stepped direct o ly firom a bandbox and to have had ex is tremely recent acquaintance with much soap and water. [y "Hello. Dallas!" he shouted, encom passing his sister in a bear hug. "How d Soon are" t "Here's Mr. Gibbs. Perry," Dallas reminded him as she emerged, some what crumpled, from the embrace, "Have you" The lad's manner underwent a light ning and frigid change. "Oh, good morning!" he grunted, with a curt nod to the visitor, and, picking up a paper, turned to the sport Ing sheet and became immersed in its contents, oblivious of all else. "Mr. Gibbs is only spending one day with us," admonished Dallas, trying to soften her young brother's rude Sness. "Hope he'll enjoy it," came in absent tones from the depths of the paper. Gibbs rose. "I'm going out for a cigar on the terrace," said he. "I'll join you a little Slater." "Perry," scolded Dallas as soon as i 1 the broker disappeared through the I y ong windows, "how could you treat a " guest of uncle's so rudely?" "I don't like the fellow. And I don't c a like what I read in the paper today r v about him and you. Gee, what a measly paragraph! It's enough to r e make a white man want to dash out E his brains with a cigarette. You're go- S - ling to deny it in time for the retraction I r to get into tomorrow's papers, aren't - z you?" t "I--I'm not quite sure." 1 "Good Lord!" gasped Perry, slump ing down in the nearest chair. "Are you crazy? Say, if you are looking for a real good. exciting match why don't you marry a Wall street stock report? It'd be better 'n Gibbs. If you marry ( him you'll only be an 'also ran' with the ticker tape and the market news. t Oh, keep out of it, old girl! You owe something to your intelligent and dis tinguished little brother. If you've got to commit matrimony, marry some one I like, can't you?" "I haven't given him a definite an- ( swer yet," admitted the girl, a little touched by the real feeling that under lay her brother's flippant words. "That's good medicine. Confidence restored and the run on Brother's Emo- - tions is checked. Next time you get the marry bee I have a ,dandy candi date to suggest for the job." "Who?" laughed Dallas, amused in spite of herself. "Alwyn Bennettl" "How silly!" "Not on your life! Words of wisdom from the young-that's what it is, Go ahead and marry Bennett. Be a sport and say 'Yes.' Why don't you want to marry him?" "For any one of a million reasons. First of all, he never asked me to." "Maybe he's scared to. But It he wasn't stucrI on you ne wouian t oe hanging around here every day and going everywhere with you the way he does. I'll bet $9 he's" "Mr. Bennett!" the butler announced. Brother andA sister stared guiltily at each other. "Speaking of angels"- muttered Per ry. But Dallas had already turned to welcome the visitor. Alwyn Bennett at first glance had little to distinguish him from the av erage good looking young man about town. But a closer observer would have noticed a firmness about the shapely mouth, an honesty and strength of purpose about the eyes, a general air of latent power that lay unawak ened beneath the jolly, purposeless exterior. No crisis had yet called forth any special manifestation of this pow er, and meanwhile Bennett was con tent to loaf through an existence that thus far had been decidedly pleasant. The only son of a widowed mother who advised and spoiled him, more than comfortably well off from the great fortune amassed by his dead fa ther, possessed of a social position un assailable and equally fortunate in that mysterious quality that spells popularity-all these gifts had saved Alwyn Bennett the trouble of fighting life's battle or showing who might be within his reach. "Good old Bennett!" hailed Perry. "We were just talking about you." Dallas Wainwright. "Good!" answered Alwyn. "Any thing is better than indifference. What were you saying about me?" "You tell him, Dallas!" grinned the boy. "Be quiet!" whispered his sister, flushing with vexation. "Then I'll tell for myself," went on Perry gleefully. "I was Just asking har" (Continued on page 5.)
