paying Reverence to Lincoln.
All last week crowds packed a hall in Chicago
where an exhibit of Lincoln relics was shown. A Chicago newspaper chronicles that ; among .the crowds were many so-called ; hyphenated Americans. They wore rough clothes, their hands were
stained with the grime and dirt of the factory and trench, but they paid reverence to Lincoln, the ex
ponent of freedom.
Pro-Britons and misinformed Americans may
believe that because men are of alien birth they
are not good citizens, but let their be an opportu nity for the display of patriotism and the hyphen
ated Americans not only are out in full force but
also are enthusiastic in their reverence for the na
tion's great men. r
Aliens come to America .because they want to be free. They love free institutions and they are proud that they have been admitted to. the land
of the free and the brave. Many til-advised ti
rades have been directed against hyphenated
" Americans. Their critics could learn important
- lessons in citizenship from many of these citizens
of alien parentage. Protecting Themselves . A number of women in the last few weeks have demonstrated that they can take care of themselves when attacked by robbers and purse snatchers. Most of the men who snatch purses from women are cowards, and when a brave woman shows fight they take to their heels like craven curs. It's a poor man who will attack a woman. If a woman turns on such trash she usually succeeds in putting the assailant to flight. We hope that some woman will succeed some day in getting-her hands on one of these cowards. The punishment she will meet 'out to
him will make him remember the encounter for many weeks:: . ' - '- - - ?''r

A Thrilling Serial oPDevotioir and M ystettf
SYNOPSIS. Noel Crawley, a successful painter, has painted the portrait of a beautiful Woman whom he knows only as Zoe. She calls at his studio and, on learn" lng of his enagement, tries to Mil herself. . She goes, swearing she will commit. suicide the day he marries. ' About this time Godfrey Brooke appears on the scene, after an absence Of several years In Africa.
i He only stayed In England about six months, during which time he visited the tombs of his parents and many places, paid his Cambridge debts with interest and renewed as many of his acquaintances as he could. '
He went o Paris before starting off on' some prospecting expedition into
Uganda. It was in Paris, at this time, that he first met Noel Crawley, and the two young men then and there struck up an extraordinarily close friendship. Crawley was at this time a strug
gling art student, pigging it in .great
discomfort in the Quartier Latin, a strange young man, utterly unlike an artist in many ways, yet thoroughly In love with his profession, and grim.
ly, If rather hopelessly, determined to -wrench fame from the gods by his
pencil and brush. .. . He was three years younger than
.Brooke, and the two men. were about
as dissimilar as it is possible to lm
aglne; but for the few weeks Brooke
was in Paris they were well-nigh in separable.' V
. Crawley bad very little money of his own at that time save what he made
by his art, but he firmly - refused
Brooke's offer to take him to Uganda, pay all his expenses there and back, show him the' grandest scenery, and give him; the Inest sport' in Central
Africa.. . "If you offered to take me to Italy," Crawley is reported to have said, "I would have pocketed my pride and
gone like a shot. But Africa? No-
thank you." . : . Brooke went abroad : shortly after
ward and was away for two or three years. The two men corresponded more or less regularly, and Crawley
observed that Brooke's name was often in the papers. He was spoken of ss an intrepid traveller and sportsman, an empire-builder, and -all that sort of thing. When he came back to England he was thoroughly lionised. A very brilliant young man, whose name has ever since been kept a profound secret, wrote a book for him which established Brooke's reputation as a maker of empire. "
t North NintK Street Lights The first ornamental ; lights in Richmond were put in commission Saturday night with a celebration , on North Ninth street. Hundreds of persons, saw the lights go on. They were forced to admit that the block is a distinct credit to the city, v, ' ' ' - - .. - " . It.is hoped that the example set by the business men and property owners von North Ninth street will soon be followed by property , owners along the other business streets of the city. Ornamental lights are a good advertisement for the city. They show that the city, is alive and progressive. ' . -Types in the Crowd ' GAMBLER -The love of gambling seems to be inherent in some men. ; It manifests itself early in life, along with measles, mrimps and jand whooping cough, and persist until gray hair, a broken frame, and faltering step herald the near advent of death. As a boy he plays
marbles "for. keeps," bets his team will win the
school series, "wagers he is the best runner, swim
mer, ballplayer and fighter in his section of the
town. As a young , man, he gambles on his chance
to keep a job despite inattention to duties and violation of rules. He speculates on keeping health even if he dissipates and wastes his en
ergy. He stakes his hope for preferment and success on the aUusiye bubble of bluff , deception and shyster schemes, the result being that the young gamester gambles himself out of a job, out of the companionship of estimable friends,
out of social standing, out of good connections, Into the street, into evil ways and into the class of thoroughbred loafers, bums,' sluggards, drones and the town's riff-raff. ; Then he -begins to play the "fast and' losing game. He resorts to every, kind of professional gambling;, "plays the ponies "tries a shot at the market," takes long odds, covers big risks, plunges on precarious promises, makes a "killing" or two, is himself plucked, "reefed," trimmed, "reamed," fc"bled," "cleaned-out," and finally is tumbled into the w;diac.VllVi One cannot gamble with Dame Fortune. She stacks the cards, and always deals herself four aces. She plays the ;sure thing, but you take the long chance and the"awful rk. t :
. "Rather. You don't suppose I'm
going to stand out here," do yon?" He
laughed boisterously. "I thought I'd look you np. old man. Hope you
aren't busy. I've only got about half
an hour and must be at Waterloo by 10:15. I'm glad to see things have prospered -at last Always told -you they would, you know. By Jove, this
placet looks lolly comfortable." The
traveller admiringly surveyed Crawley's hall. "You've done yourself wellBut let m e have a look at you. But I say, Noel, you aren't looking up too much."
"I'm not feeling particularly fit tonight," said Crawley, quickly, "but
come in here by the fire." He ushered
Brooke into a large .room leading
from the right of the spacious ball. "Give me a drink, old man," said
Brooke. "I'm Just frozen with your confounded winds. Thls'll mean a
touch of fever if I'm not. careful
Ten days ago I was sweating in a
hundred in the shade.
"It is cold," said Crawley, 'but he
spoke as if, his thoughts were a long
way off. Brooke regarded him cer iously. 'What's wrong?" he exclaimed.
"Wrong? Nothing's wrong," said Crawley, with a laugh. "Help yourself,. -There are the drinks. Won't
you smoke?"
Brooke's heavy brows contracted, and he laid his hand affectionately on
Crawley's arm. "Old man," he said quietly, "tell me what's the matter. Have I come af an inopportune moment? Because if I have well, you know me well enough to give me the tip. Shall I get? Now don't be a fool. Own up. You aren't a bit pleased to see me now." Crawley ran his beautifully shaped white hands through his black hair and sank wearily into a chair. "If you want to know the truth, Brooke,"" he said with unusual - solemnity, "you are of every one in the wide world the mar. Fd rather havehere now. So there you are. Fill up your glass and ' draw a chair up to the fire, and tell me where you've been all, these months years I might almost say. Come, I want to know all about it." He lit his pipe as he was speaking. - . Brooke stood with his back to the fire, still regarding him doubtfully and suspiciously. "You ylook to me, Crawley," he said laconically, "as if you've just had a knockdown : blow; - but; of course, if you don't want to . confide ; in me, don't.?--;' CC. a ;,..v. .' : -Crawley retorted with a faint smile of amusement." w - . "I love to. bear you talk like that. You're Just the same. You haven't altered a bit. ' You're just the same savage old bear with a sore ear. It does me good. - Go ,on. Don't mind me." - (To be continued.) -

Noel Crawley, was in London at' the time; - getting on well and making quite a lot Of money. His Academy picture of the year -was spoken' of everywhere. His - fore - was portraiture. 5 ' The two men saw a great deal of each other, and Crawley basked in the reflected glory of the great man, and from that time forth attributed his ever-growing success to that fact. -Brooke - never stayed in - England long. He hated London and his spirit would not rest. He travelled everywhere, -made money here and lost, it there and made more; then he interested himself in -African politics and became a really great man. And, all the ; time Crawley slowly but surely
crept- up the hill of fame, and in
the journey, did himself uncommonly well. '. A little under two years before the commencement of this story Brooke married a certain Miss Diana Melhuish of whom no one had ever heard. The
marriage was kept a secret until after
the honeymoon, and Brooke bad gone
away to Africa, leaving his wife, behind,, with all his love and a check
book.
And now Brooke was in England again, feeling very cold and uncomfortable,, in the chill east .wind of March as he huddled back in the. taxi which was bearing him from his club in St. James's to Crawley's studio
flat - in Grosvenor road, facing the river . and the monstrous . pottery works of Doulton. . - . .
" He-had not seen Noel Crawley -for
two years, but he had occasionally heard from him, and tonight at the club, where, he had-dined with a well known Under Secretary of State, he had learned a lot about him. , Crawley was becoming . very
popular artist, and a still more popular man in the semi-smart Bohemian
society In which he moved. Brooke was genuinely glad, and wanted to see him and tell him so. ; Brooke, had .only .been in.. England
a .couple, of days, and those days had been very crowded with appointments -HBO ' crowded, - indeed, that he had barely-bad time to say how-do-you-
do to his .wife. . -- '
The Under Secretary had bad to go on to the House comparatively early, and Brooke's next - train :. down to
Guildford,. -where his house', and: wife
were, did not go till past 10 o'clock.
With the two-mile drive at the end
of the railway journey ,-he expected to be in his house before midnight. Brooke Decides to Look Up Crawley.
He nad an -hour to 'spare. "A man
at the club bad suggested billiards:
but Brooke decided to look up Craw-
He dismissed his taxicab 'and - was
whisked up to Crawley's flat in a lift When he ' had - last' seen Crawley he had been living -very-quietly in Camlen Town. 40A Grosvenor road, with. s smart entrance hall, its liveried tall - porter and lift attendant, : had n . unmistakable air of luxury, , He
