THE PULLMAN HERALD
|j IN THE SUBWAY |
|$ By VIRGINIA KEYES.
(©. 1920. by McClure Newspaper Unit.. |
"Thank goodness, the whole thing
will be done quietly," Mrs. Frauds Tab
fourd murmured to herself as she stood
watching the noonday crowd pouring
into the subway. Her gown of gray,
clinging material, with Its wide, child-
Ml cellar of delicate, white lace seemed
strangely out of place among the
smart tailored suits of the working
girls hurrying post. A gray velvet hat
with a single ornament of twisted sil- J
ver ribbon fitted closely over her coiled
brown hair. No, there would be no
disgusting publicity.
Somewhere a clock struck the hnlf
hour. Mrs. Talfourd became Impatient.
Strange, Francis was bite. He hud in
sisted that she should meet him there
and that they should go together on
the subway. How much easier to
have called for him at the office with
her little electric
In spite of herself slit? began to j
think about the first time she had seen j
Francis. Then he had been a secre
tary in her father's office, She re
membered his .straight shoulders and
the peculiar habit he had of becoming i
quite red when one looked at him.
How different from the young men
who flitted about the fashionable bo-'
tels and drove long, low-sealed road
sters I
She remembered how curiously
happy she had been the day he timidly
Invited her to a concert. How proud
she felt, proud of his erect bearing, his
energetic manner of speaking and his
flashing smile. Then, too, the night
she had given up a dance to go to
walk with him, and he had told her
that he loved her.
Mrs. Tn I fourd caught her breath has
tily. She must not think of such
things. One should not think of such
things when one was going to a law
yer's to get a divorce. She must re
member how Impossible It was for
them to live happily together. She
could not go without the things she
had always been accustomed to. For
two dreadful months she had lived
within Francis' salary, denying her
helf all the expensive luxuries she
loved so much. Then her father had
died and she had slowly drifted back
Into the old way. Why should she not
spend her father's money? He had
worked all his life that his only daugh
ter might have everything. Yet Fran
cis wanted her to live upon his salary
alone. Ridiculous! There had been
quarrels, rather bad quarrels, and now
she was waiting for Francis at the sub
way entrance. A clock struck one. I
A tired-looking man separated him
self from the crowd and came hastily
toward her. His well-fitting suit was
worn and his cuffs were frayed.
"Sorry. Blanche," he said briskly.
"There was a little extra work that
had to be finished. However, this Is
the last time I'll beep you waiting, you
know."
As they went down Into the subway
she began to open her beaded bag. "I
pay my wife's fare," he said grimly,
and the lines about his mouth hard
ened noticeably.
They entered the car nnd found a
seat In silence. Mrs. Talfourd looked
straight before her. Stations flashed
by, spots of light and color, nothing
more. The crowds ebbed and flowed.
Suddenly the car Stopped. There
was no station. They must be under
the river. Mrs. Talfourd sighed with
relief. It was probably waiting for an
other car to pass. Then the lights
went out. Mrs. Talfourd had been
afraid of the dark ever since she was
a wee tot. who clung In terror to her
governess' hands as they went through
the dark hnll into the brilliantly light
ed nursery. Now she shivered a lit
tle In the darkness and touched Fran
cis' sleeve gently to make sure he was
still there
His voice rang out clearly nnove
the others: "Wo will be going In a
few minutes. The car often stops like
this."
Mrs. Talfourd was reminded of the '
first month of their marriage, when she
cooked for Francis In a four-room
apartment. How happy Francis had
been, no matter how disgracefully the
dinner turned out! Something startled '
her from her thoughts, the low moans j
of a frightened woman. In the deadly
stillness that followed there wns a
low. dripping sound. Mrs. Talfourd
clenched her hands and began to count
the drops In a stupid way. Now there
was the sound of running water, no j
longer drops. It was the river. The
car would soon he flooded.
"Francis," she whispered. Her
throat was strangely dry.
"Yes, dear," he said softly, and she
felt his arm close tight about her.
Not a ray of light penetrated the dark
ness, only that maddening trickling.
On the other side of the car a man
was praying In a husky voice and a
woman was sobbing.
"Dear.** It was months since she
had said that word. "Dear," she whis
pered again, and she felt his breath
against ncr cheek. In that Instant of j
happiness she forgot that she would
soon die. In that same moment the j
car was flooded," not with water, but
with dazzling light, and again they
were rattling noisily through the tun
nel.
Blindly they left the car. Mrs. Tal
fourd, still clinging to her husband's
arm, found herself In the street filled
with sunshine. The crowds surged by
unnoticed.
"Francis," she murmured, flushing In
confusion. "Do you suppose If we
hurried we could find a four-room
apartment and move In tonight?"
