Captain Williams, although a rival of
Joe Brooks for the hand of Emma, still
remains an intimate friend of both Em
ma and Joe, and is a frequent caller
at the Brooks’ home.
Captain Williams, with the marked
brutality of his past life, designs to
rid Emma of Joe that he may accom
plish his own desires, and consequent
ly is most oppressive in his treatment
of Joe.
Joe becomes socialistic in his ideas
and whines because of Jimmy’s better
position and the lack of a proper wage
which he believes the Captain is hold
ing from him. The Captain calls on
Emma frequently at her humble Har
lem home and forces his attentions
with invites to dinner and auto rides.
During one of the Captain's visits. Joe
returns to hear the Captain remark
(hat it is a shame that Emma has to be
without a maid’s help, and in a strong
scene denounces the Captain for under
paying him and depriving him of his
just earnings. The Captain, keen upon
his desire to oppress Joe and eventu
ally win Emma for himself, forgives
Joe’s outburst of rage and denunci
ition, and assures Emma that Joe will
continue in his employ.
Joe, as part of the Captain’s plot, is
promoted to the position of collector

"SELLS IT FOR LESS”
for the company. His downward path
begins with the theft of money that he
may take his wife to the theatre. He
becomes speculative from then on,
plays the races, gambles in other ways
and continues his misappropriation of
collections that he may give his wife
happiness such as Jimsy or Captain
Williams might offer her.
Captain 'Williams, watching the de
velopment of the lowly plot he has
planned, decides upon a trip to Guat
emala with Jimsy, that Joe may have
free rein to seal is own fate. He en
gages detectives to watch Joe and se
cure evidence for his conviction.
Joe explains to Emma that his salary
has been raised, and the Harlem flat is
forsaken for an apartment amid better
surroundings. He continues his mis
appropriation, endeavoring to replac;
what he has taken, but only gets i:i
deeper.
Captain Williams and Jimsy return
unexpectedly from their trip, and
Jimsy calls at the Brooks’ home. Alone
with Joe he tells him that Captain
Williams' knows all, and Joe, in des
peration, tells Emma that he has been
stealing the money to buy her happi
ness and pleads for her forgiveness
and help. Captain W’illiams calls anu
sarcastically reminds Joe that he will
see him at his office in the morning.
With every means of escape blocked, |
with disgrace and a prispn sentence |
imminent, Joe cowers under his real- j
ization and begs and pleads with his |
wife to go to Captain Williams that j
night and square his indebtedhess ‘‘the j
way other women have squared things j
for their husbands.” Emma shrinks
from him in horror, but finally agrees,
and after telephoning Williams, leaves
on her mission.
Jimsy, hearing of her coming, and
still loving Emma, warns the Captain
that “she must be smiling when I re
turn,” and leaves that she may be
spared the humiliation of a meeting
with him.
The Captain's great love for Emma
conquers his brutal desires, and witn J

WAU EFFECTS
TELEGRAPH TOLLS
(By Associated Press.)
The Hague. March 25—Telegraphic
communications between the European
countries, whether belligerent or neu
tral, have been affected to an enor
mous extent by the war. Not only has
the time of transmission been greatly
extended, but the cost to the senders
has been castly increased.
Holland, for instance, in order to
communicate with neutral Spain, must
route her messages byway of England
at double expense, since France will
not permit telegrams which have been
passed over German or Austrian linos
to be taken over her own wires. Oth
erwise it would be possible to send
the messages byway of Germany and 1
Switzerland, and thus over southern
j France to Spain.
In order to teiegrapn rreni Holland
to Denmark, Sweden or Norway, the
] despatches from Holland ust pass
| either through *he hands of the Ger
; man or those of the Tnglish censors,
iby each of whom tliov are in many
| instances given sohrt srift and often
do not ever reach their destination.
For America, all cablegrams from
Holland must go to England, with
consequent delay and sometimes sup
pression by the censors but more es
| pecially when coming from the United
State to Holland, when a delay of
ten days in nothing unusual.
The question has been raised in
commercial circles here as to what
j course is to be pursued to recover the
tolls paid to the cable companies for
messages, which, owing to the action
of the German, British and French
censors, have never gone over the
wires, and an investigation has been
started with the object of regulating
the matter after the war is ended.

ed Judge John T. Pendleton of the Su
perior court yesterday afternoon. The
court attaches had just discovered that
the judge, who looks sixty, acts forty
and is as light-hearted as thirty, wa3
seventy years old that day. They pre
sented him with a loving cup, hastily
purchased.
“Whistling is the dread enemy of
the army of gloom,” said Judge Pen
dleton. “It puts them to flight ami
annimiliates worry. It brings happy
thoughts, lightens the heart and builds
good humor. It doesn't matter wheth
er it’s grand opera or “Chicken in the
Bread Tray* or no tune at all. Just
whistle, that’s all.”
