Unfortunately *one Tuesday there came a visitor with a ravenous appetite. The host stinted himself that the hungry one might be satisfied with the day's section. But he wasn't. With anxious eyes the host saw the knife clearing the boundary line and the hungry man ruthlessly carving into his almanac. At last he could stand it 110 longer. All the work of the army of detectives would have gone for naught had not one of them happened to stumble across the poor telegraph operator in I-ong Island City and wrung from him a trembling confession of his innocent part in the great game.

Nan Patterson sat coldly watching the faces of her prospective jurors, evincing no emotion. Senator Fairbanks then went on to speak of the value he placed upon home ties and home friends. "The honors 1 value most are not in other states," he said with feeling. "They are here in this room, in this city, in this state.
