curbed. New Attitude Indiauapoila, Aug. 1 —<U.R) A | new attitude toward draught beer dispensers was adopted today by Paul I’. Fry. state excise director. "If tlie local authorities will I take care of the unlicensed beer I | sellers we'll take care of licensed I dealers selling draught beer," Fry said. "My investigators will report I violations and we'll revoke per- j mils of those breaking the law." Fry previously had said he was powerless to enforce the law and that he was depending entirely on local authorities. Gov. Paul V. McNutt's return front the California governor's conference tomorrow or Thursday is expected to result in a definite state stand on the draught beer question. Should Fry's men and slate police start a drive against I draught beer establishments. It will be taken to mean that the flow must stop. If no such action is taken, the draught beer revolt is expected to ■ I spread to wherever local authori- i I ties will allow it. Extension of the revolt to St. Joseph county was checked today, temporarily at least, when Prosecutor John M Rabb said he would enforce the law. John B. Kuesi pert, South Bend police chief, I also announced he would arrest ' ' draught beer dispensers.

question swept through him like fresh cold air, clearing away a fog. It was the truth. The effect of Leni Luneska upon his sepses had addled him, had set in motion the unguessed powers of emotion that had oveiwhelmed his common intelligence. Even now he could scarcely realize how completely — yet how secretly — the strange force was at work within him. He was as stunned as every man is who comes upon the realization that some particular woman has wrecked all his native shrewdness. He had no resentment against Leni. Indeed, he felt an actual stab of remorse for what he had let her in for. His face was burning with the shame of a mar. who understands he has bungled completely. ‘‘Did you kill that man?" Mulrooney asked him abruptly. “I did not,” Cavanaugh returned. To his own ears the words had a hollow sound. ‘‘Well, maybe you didn’t,” Mulrooney said. “I can tell you this, though—if you ever go before a jury, the odds are ten to one against you.” Cavanaugh was fully aware that his situation was desperate. Mulrooney’s words rang with truth. If he ever went before a jury the odds against him would easily be ten to one. It made it clearer to him to state the odds in gambling terms. The percentage against Leni Luneska was infinitely greater—a hundred to one that she would be dragged through the mud of exposure. , The only thing that stood between the both of them in calamity was the inadequate organ called a brain between Lucky Cavanaugh s throbbing temples. “The simplest thing to do,” Mulrooney said easily, “is for both of you people to tell the truth. It would be a novelty that would save us all a lot of trouble.” “You wouldn’t believe the truth,”

Cavanaugh said. “I might,” said Mulrooney. “You’re supposed to be a gambler. Why don’t yop take a chance and come clean?” In all of his experience Lucky Cavanaugh had never before been driven into a comer. It was a stifling sensation. The truth, possibly, might get him out of trouble, but it would blast Leni Luneska. In the past he had always put himself first with a frank, goodnatured selfishness. But now he was thinking about somebody else — about a woman. But not exactly thinking. He was feeling. The only thing that could save him was his instinct and intuition—that blind streak of fate and fortune that had given him the name , of Lucky. That such a force operated in the affairs of men he had ‘ not the slightest doubt. His luck ' had operated on a thousand different occasions—he lived by it. He i was itpmune from the misfortune | and disappointments of other men. Wherever he went he rode on a golden tide. . . . “Maybe the lady would like to tell the truth,” suggested Mulrooney. Leni looked straight at Cavanaugh, as though he—instead of Mulrooney—had her fate in keeping. “I will stand by whatever Mr. I Cavanaugh says,” she declared. An instinct to protect her ran like a warm current through his whole body. Slowly the dark idea was forming in his mind that it would be necessary for him to take the whole burden of everything upon his shoulders in order to exculpate Leni completely. Yet no sane man would willingly assume the responsibility for a murder. “Don’t you say a word!” he heard himself crying to Leni. It was exactly as though another person had spoken the words.
