The complaint al-' leges the couple was married March ! 26. 1938, in Newport, Kentucky, and that the plaintiff was "17 years of age and incapable of contracting

I marriage; that neirher of her par--1 ent b, guardian or any proper peraou consented to the marriage.” It was further alleged that aha "was in-i duced by misrepresentations andj fraud of defendant to accompany. hint without knowning the purpose i of culmination thereof, that she was prevailed upon to go through a marriage ceremony but that she. at all times, protested upon entering into; such relation and did not voluntarily consent.” A restraining order' was requested, submitted and nus-j tallied. Appearance Filed An appearance was filed by Smith and Parrish for Lite defendant in. the foreclosure suit brought by Mil- ( ton Miller against John A. Lindsey. The defendant was ruled to answer.

CHAPTER XXII Kirby laughed with a deep exultai tion. Jaxie had made no effort to draw away from his embrace, but he held her closer. “One minute after I saw you, I knew that I had loved you always,” he told her. “And so did you. I saw it in your eyes.” His own looked deeply into them now and drew from their shining depths her own confession. “I can’t deny it,” she whispered. “I love you—oh, 1 do love you,” ; Jaxie repeated vehemently, as if she had to convince herself of the truth. “My precious!” His lips possessed hers. They parted suddenly, as the door opened and the brakeman crossed the platform with a lantern in his hand. He glanced at them briefly and disappeared into the next car without a word. Love affairs on limited trains were no novelty to him, even if the participants did believe that an unprecedented miracle had just taken place. Jaxie laughed shakily and pointed to the words painted across the outer door, “Do Not Stand On This Platform.” “We weren’t,” Kirby denied, “We were floating, somewhere in space above it.” But he took her arm and opened the door into the observation car. It was deserted, save for an old gentleman who still perused his newspaper diligently. “Say, this is great!” he exclaimed, as they reached the platform and drew deep breaths of the light, clear air. A crescent moon hung like a platinum jewel against the breast of the sky between two mountain peaks whicb c might have been the shoulders of a gown of black velvet. As the train climbed up the grade with scarcely a sign of slackened speed, the whole world seemed to unroll before them in the lyric sheen of the young moonlight, which flooded the mountains and cast deep black shadows of their peaks into the valleys and rocky canyons It was as if they two had just been presented with the whole world and it now lay before them for endless miles—vast, gripping, beautiful, mysterious—like the love they just had found. As if fate had taken them upon a mountain peak to reveal to them the immensity of this new revelation of life. They stood at the platform railing—not jesting and chatting, as upon the previous night—but silent and impressed. both by their emotion within and the beauty without. Kirby’s arms held her close, her head was thrown back against his breast, against the beating of his heart. Its thudding raced with the clicking of the wheels. Both of them seemed to sing triumphantly, “I love you, I love you.” She felt like an atom being rushed backward into ■ illimitable space, but she wanted to go on that way, forever, feeling small and light and deliriously happy. Momentarily Jaxie thought, “I’ve

promised to describe for the public ■ all the thrills of thia trip, but I’ll > have to renege on this one. Not only t is it too intimate, but there are not s enough beautiful words in the whole i world to describe it” . Suddenly a monster hand closed r down over them. They were swal- * lowed by that world which had been ■ laid before their eyes. Jaxie shrank back against Kirby in the abrupt darkness and rush of sound, know- > ing that they had entered the Raton > tunnel, but grateful that Kirby’s , arms held her close, there in the bowels of the earth, at the mercy , of powerful elements—this puny ' train load of humans swallowed , by a gigantic mountain. Smoke , shrouded them and grew more dense as the circle of light which ' was the entrance to the tunnel receded into the distance and rapidly grew smaller. The reverberation of 1 sound against the rock walls was 1 deafening. Jaxie reached up her lips to 1 Kirby's ear and said as softly as . possible, “I’m so happy, dear, that we discovered this before we en--1 tered the tunnel, and that we are ' here alone, together Could anything be mure thrilling?” ' “Holding you like this—anywhere I —is the most thrilling thing in the world,” he declared. “Oh,” she answered. “I feel as if I we were rushing madly into a new world, through a void, propelled by invisible forces. Oh, Kirby my dari ling, hold me close so that I shan't . lose you.” “If I hold you any closer, there t will be nothing left of you when we . arrive,” he laughed against her ear ’ and kissed it, pressed his lips to her , hair, her eyes, her mouth—there in the darkness of the tunnel where ; the lights of the platform and train I were of no consequence, for no one ( was near to see them. k Finally they rushed back into the ‘ night again, emerging from the k tunnel as suddenly as they had en- ( tered. The moonlight poured out a brilliant flood around them, in con- . trast with the thick blackness and j smoke which they had passed through, and the fresh air washed over them in a refreshing current. "I guess that will be enough tun- ( nels for you for awhile, won’t it?” he demanded. t “It was almost too long,” she conI fessed. She was breathless; but . how much of it was caused by the . gaseous air of the tunnel and how . much by her own emotion, she did ! not know. They sat on the platform for anr other hour, murmuring together, i clasping hands, and watching the > distance flash away from them as s the train gathered speed on the 1 downgrade until it seemed as if it 1 were running wild. There was so s much to say, so much to explain and > to ask; but they were content with > disconnected words of endearment 7 or frequent comments on their suri roundings. At times they rushed between walled- narrow passages, i then swung around the rims of can-

yon walls that dropped to unfathomable depths below. "What a night!” Jaxie exclaimed, “and what thrills and what a man!" she added, laughing softly. “I didn’t know there could be so much genuine excitement in all the world, much less on a little four-by-six platform on the top of the world.” “But we must go in, now, sweetheart. There is tomorrow also, and then another exciting day when we arrive, and many others to follow." “As if I could sleep tonight I” Jaxie chided him. “Happy, Loveable?" “So happy I’m afraid I shall wake up and discover it isn’t real, after all I” she sighed. "Isn’t this real?” he kissed her again. “I hope it is!” t "I’ll prove it tomorrow," he promised. “Tomorrow!” she repeated the word, musingly. “How confidently we plan for tomorrow, and yet we never can be sure of it. Out here in these mountains, darting into the heart of them, creeping along the edges of space, we exult over tomorrow! This moment is all that is real!” So they parted, reluctantly; filled with emotion and yearning for more, torn apart by conventions when nature had just united them. And the Big Chief rumbled on through the night; shrieking, clanging, lurching and snorting like an unleashed demon, while the undulating rails slipped away from the rear platform with the swiftness of magic, and yet always were there—miles of shining rails. From heat-brooding prairies and shimmering cornfields and sweet meadows, it had passed that day into sand and hills and stark, rocky buttes, through narrow rock walls looming sheer to the sky, over desolate dry stream beds, crawling through tunnels and creeping cautiously across frail steel trestles as if feeling its way. It roared through the villages arrogantly, as if it scorned to favor those poor little huddled and isolated spots with a stop, but the lights of the villages winked knowing eyes and settled back contentedly in the darkness, when it had passed them by. But there were proud cities that the monster dared not pass by and, like the snobbish leader of society, the more important the place, the longer it remained to partake of its hospitality. Such places were Las Vegas and Lamy on that night, but no passengers descended from the train at these places to stroll on the platform. Those who lay awake in their berths heard the clang of switchengine bells, the hiss of escaped steam, the rumble of baggage trucks, an occasional shouted command. Then the strain of the wheels returning to motion, the shriek of a whistle, the clanging of a bell, and again they were off. (To be continued) Copyrttbt. Edna Robb Webstar.
