RALSTON’S SON TO SEE CONVENTION Hoosier Delegation Undecided in Balloting, Frederick Van Nuys, ex-district attorney and member of the law firm of Senator Samuel M. Ralston, and Julian .Ralston, son of the Senator, and also a law partner, left today for the Democratic national convention in New York. “I has to sit on him and make him go.” Van Xuys said in commenting on the younger Ralston's trip to Xew York. It is well known to those close to the Ralstons that* Julian cares little for politics and it is said during the four years Ralston was Governor of Indiana. Julian only visited the executive office once. The Senator’s son spends most of his time immersed In his law books. Xo definite course has been decided upon by the Hoosier delegation as to balloting for the presidential nominations. While it has been said Senator Ralston will not be formally nominated. Van Xuys is prepared to ujmp in at an opportune time with a nominating speech for the Hoosier solon. It is believed, however, the Indiana delegation wilj cast courtesy votes, splitting its delegation to work up sympathy that might be called upon when the expected deadlock comes and time arrives for putting forth Ralston’s name. Xot more than 20 per cent of the immigration quota of one nation can be admitted to the United States in a single month. SOUND SLEEP RESTORED WITH PLEASANT TONIC C. H.

INQUESfiSHELD WITHOUT VICTIM Man Testifies Arresting Officer Gave Him Inkling, Procedure of justice of peace courts in Indiana in sending persons to insane asylums has often been attacked. Recently a man confined in the Central Hospital for the Insane, State institution on W. Washington St., detailed to the judge who heard his habeas corpus petition that his wife and son had him declared insane to get control of his money. “I was never at the inquest, and knew nothing about it,” he testified. “I was sitting on the porch jading a paper. Two men walked up. ‘You are under arrest,’ they said, showing badges. “ ‘You’re crazy,’ I told them. “ ‘No, we’re not crazy: you are,’ they replied, and that was the first I knew about it.”

She knew why she -fiad befriended Pete against Ivan, why his companionship had been so dear and his protection so comforting; and she understood why her whole world had passed into darkness when she had seen him fall. The first caribou hunt, on her first day in the hills, had given her what had hitherto been an almost-forgot-ten joy, and every day since that joy had increased. Even from the first hour he had called to her, and she had answered. Evidently this love’ and it could be nothing else but love been predestined, a thing of "the instincts that all the barrier* of caste and circumstance could not restrain. But it must never, never be. Onlv tragedy lay that way, and she had had enough of tragedy. She looked at the matter calmly; and she knew her only possible course. The bat Her between her and the. guide was wholly impassable; and it must be forgotten like a vain dream. He w*s ar exile of the North; she was of cities. He was of. the storm and windy siiore, the desolation and * the solitude; and she was of warmth ! and laughter and beauty. He was ;of another* plane and caste, and I never the two could meet. Besides, | she had gone too far with Tvan to | turn a Hay from him. She had given I him her promise. She knew her course. In a few more days she and the man who

loved her would launch their boat and row away; and Pete would be left on the desolate shore. They would never cross trails again. Slowly these strange, rapturous memories that already seemed like dreams instead of the living events es the hours just gone, would pale and die, just as many of the memories of Peter had paled and died; his rugged, homely, yet ever-familiar face would fade in her remembrance; and the drama ir. the wilderness would he dimmed by the mists of the past. She would take up her old gaieties, and she would live for Ivan. In time the poignant pain would pass away, and she would find the normal contentment of marriage. As soon as the Russian returned she would remove all danger by putting herself forever out of Pete’s reach. Thus she would defeat her willful heart, cheat the enigmatic destiny that- had jested with her so long, and perhaps find a humble share of human happiness. CHAPTER XVI Ivan Succeeds Just before noon of the following day Pete —who was resting beside the camp fire —made out a moving speck on the distant, inland hills; and close scrutiny proved it to be Ivan, returning from his quest. In half an hour he would be at camp and Dorothy in his arms. Pete understood perfectly the full significance of this return. It marked, indeed, the turning point in his own great adventure; his personal watch of the girl would be over, and a few hours thereafter she would sail away. The one joy that was left him was to carry the good news to.Porothy and to watch the dear, remembered kindling of her luminous eyes. He made his way quietly to her tent. “Mr. Ishmin is returning,” he told her simply, still in the character of Pete the guide. “Hals in plain sight already.” The girl’s lips parted, hut her face did not at once flush with pleasure. Yet her expression showed instant, unrrustaklable relief. It was all that was needed to convince Pete that the

girl had found her happiness; and he was persuaded that her tenderness yesterday, after she had brought him home, was merely an instinctive reaction —echo of her almost forgotten love for. Peter Newhall— which her conscious self made no interpretation. The girl looked breathlessly Into Pete's haggard face., Fortunately lie did not guess rhe'Tull truth; that her genuine relief was not at having her lover come back again, but only because it, permitted her to escape from her own doubts and fears. s' “WAS THE TRIP ACROSS A SUCCESS?” SHE ASKED. She left the damp and trudged up the hill to meet Ivan.' He waved to her, a motion brimming with vitality and spirit; and he was graceful as a caribou as he hastened to join her. Evidently the hard trip had left him unscathed. He was slightly more brown, perhaps, not quite So well groomed if for no other reason than he had left his shaving kit in camp, but there was no visible trace of fatigue in his dark, handsome face, no change in his easy, graceful carriage. He held the girl close, and she felt the steel of his muscles. There was a world of reassurance here. When she returned to her native city, Ivan at her side, when all the witchery of this savage land had paled into dreams, she had every chance to find a full share of happiness in these strong arms. "Was the trip a success?” she asked, radiant from his kiss. “Do you think Fd come back if it wernn't I had the best kind of luck. I didn’t even get clear to the Pacific shore. A few miles this side I ran into a squaw, laying oyt a trap line. I got her to go back

She nrcnv get here tonight—she's certain to make it by-tomorrow morning. Then we can take the dory and start out —back to God's country.” "You started back as sdon as you'd made arrangements with her? ' “Yes. There was no use to go on. She could bring all the grub she could spare without •my help. Besides—l couldn't bear to be away from you any longer.” They walked arm-in-arm down to the camp and Pavlof glowed at his master’s greeting. “You've been comfortable?” he asked the girl. “Perfectly. Pete has taken the best possible care of me.” “I’m glad to hear it. We’ll add something fancy to his check when we pay him off.” He followed Dorothy into her tent, and after she had told him of Pete’s accident, he caught her yielding hands.' “Dear, I've come back successful, and now I’ve got something to ask. It’s the biggest thing in the world, but is,’s for your happiness as well,as mine.” The girl tried to meet his vivid, magnetic eyes. By a supreme effort she shut from her mfffii the whisper of fear and the last lingering doubt, and opened her heart to his pleading. "I don't think I can refuse you anything now,” she told him. The slanting eyes glowed like great jewels in the eye sockets of a heathen idol. “We’ll be starting tomorrow,” he went on. “You and I and the two natives —Pete, I .understand, going to stay here and winter on the mainland. Dear, we have a long, difficult trip before us. We will be tied up at various places on accourK. of bad weather, we will have to fight storms and rough seas—it will be a cold, tough, severe experience the best we can do. Besides that, it's really dangerous.” “But why think of the danger? There isn’t any other course open.” “That’s just it—there isn’t any other course,. We can't stay here much longer; winter is likely to break any day. We can’t wait any longer for the Warrior to return. But I've got a special reason for pointing out the dangers—dangers that only a fool would deny. It’s wholly possible, Dorothy, that the trip will actually put an end to us. There will be constant danger of sudden .storms —of being wrecked and lost on the reefs. It’s a perilous trip, at best. / “It's best, on a trip like that, that I should be able to look after you and be responsible for in a much

I know a way that we can be sure of at least a few hours of perfect happiness—that death can never cheat us out of.” “Be merry,” she quoted quietly, “for tomorrow ye may die!” “That is the philosophy—the only possible philosophy. Not only to be merry, but to take all that life offers —and not let foolish conventionality or propriety s'tand in the way. Dorothy. we love each other. We belong to each other.

As for conventionalities — it is much rfiore conventional to take that trip as my wife, even taking into consideration the character of the wedding service and everything else, than to go unehaperoned with three men. Ordinarily I would prefer to be married in old St. Paul's, as we have often talked of —with the flowers, and the music, and the beauty, and all that goes with it—yet you won’t feel any lack of solemnity.
