PICK LAFAYETTE MAN TO HEAD HIBERNIANS

teenth biennial state convention of fthe Ancient Order of Hibernians, assembled here yesterday, re-elected President I. F. Mehegan of Lafayette. ; The other officers elected are Nicholas Carroll, Indianapolis, vice president; , Michael J. Shea.

: irisn nisiory. Send Wire to DeValera. A resolution was adopted requesting ;the president, the senate and house , of representatives to give an example

; to the nations or the world by immediately recognizing the Irish republic as now established to be a free-and '-independent nation. , The delegates voted to send a tele.gTara of sincere greetings to President .reVralera and the Dail Eireann, ex " pressing the hope that the independ- . ence of Ireland will be accomplished ,in the near future. A similar tele- ! gram was sent to the ladies' auxiliary ,: of the order. - Short addresses were made during the day by James Deery, national president, end Mgr. F. H. Gavisk, both :' of Indianapolis. The business of the convention will be completed Wednesday.

"We were dashing along the smooth white country road with the long stretch of the Broads in front of us glimmering in the red light of the setting sun. From a grove upon our left I could already see the high chimneys and the flag staff which marked the squire's dwelling. "'My father made the fellow gardener,' said' my companion, 'and then, as that did not satisfy him, he was promoted to be butler. The house seemed to be at his mercy, and he wandered about and did what he chose in it. The maids complained of his drunken habits and his vile language. The dad raised their wages all round

to recompense them for the annoyance. The fellow would take the boat and my father's best gun and treat himself to little shooting trips. And

all this with such a sneering, leering,

insolent face that I would have knock-. ed him down twenty times over ifhej had been a man of my own age. I

tell you, Holmes, I have had to keep) a tight hold upon myself all this time, ; and now I am asking myself whether,! if I had let myself go a little more, j I might not have been a wiser man. j

"Wen, matters went irom Daa to worse with us, and this animal Hudson became more and more intrusive, until at last, on his making some insolent reply to my father in my presence one day, I took him by the shoulders and turned him out of the room. He slnnk away with a livid face and two venomous eyes which uttered more threats than his tongue could do. I don't know what passed between the poor dad and him after that, but dad came to me next day and asked me

whether I would mind apologizing to Hudson. I refused, as you can imagine, and asked my father how he could allow such a wretch to take such liberties with himself and his household. " ' "Ah, my boy," said he, "it Is all very well to talk, but you don't know how I am placed. But you shall know, Victor. I'll see that you shall know,

come what may. You wouldn't be

lieve harm of your poor old father, would you, lad?" He was very much moved, and shut himself up in the study all day, where I could see through the window that he was writing busily. " That evening there came what seemed to me to be a grand release, for Hudson told us that he wai going to leave us. He walked into the dining-room as we sat after dinner, and

half an hour afterwards left the bouse,; leaving my father in a state of pitiable nervousness. Night after night I heard him pacing his room, and it was Just aa he was recovering his confidence that the blow did at last fall.' "'And how?' I asked eagerly. " In a most extraordinary fashion. A letter arrived for my father yesterday evening bearing the Fordingbridge postmark. My father read it, clapped both his hands to his head, and began running round the room in little circles like a man who had been driven out of his senses. When I at last drew him down onto the sofa, his mouth and eyelids were all puckered on one side, and I 6aw that he had a stroke. Dr. Fordham came over at once. We put him to bed; but the paralysis has spread, he has shown no sign of returning consciousness, and I think that we shall hardly find him alive.' "'You horrify me, Trevor'.' I cried. 'What then could have been in this letter to cause so dreadful a result?'

"'Nothing. There lies the inexpli

cable part of it. ..The message was absurd and trivial. Ah, my God, it is as I feared!' "As he spoke we came round the curve of the avenue, and saw in the fading light that every blind In the house had been drawn down. As we dashed up to the door, my friend's face convulsed with grief, a gentleman in

black emerged from it. "'When did it happen, doctor?' asked Trevor. '"Almost immediately after you left.' "'Did he recover consciousness?' " 'For an instant before the end.' "'Any message for me?' " 'Only that the papers were in the back drawer of the Japanese cabinet.'

My mend ascended with the doctor to the chamber of death, while I remained in the study, turning the whole matter over and over in my head, and feeling as somber as ever I had done in my life. What was the

past of this Trevor, pugilist, traveller.

and gold-digger, and how had he plac

ed himself in the power of this acidfaced seaman? Why, too, should he

faint at an allusion to the half-eifaced

initials upon his arm, and die of fright

when he had a letter from Fordin

ham? Then I remembered that Fordingham was in Hampshire, and that this Mr. Beddoes, whom the seaman had gone to visit and presumably to blackmail, had also been mentioned as

living in Hampshire. The letter, then, might either come from Hudson, the

seaman, saying that he had betrayed; the guilty secret which appeared toj

ciiiL, or it imguL come irom eaaoes, warning an old confederate that such

a betrayal was imminent. So far it; seemed clear enough. But then how. could this letter be trivial and gro-j tesque, as described by the son? He must have misread it. If so, it must) have been one of those ingenious-

codes which mean one thing1 while they seem to mean another. I must see this letter. If there were a hidden meaning in it, I was confident that I

could pluck it forth. For an hour I sat i

pondering over it in the gloom, until at last a weeping maid brought in a lamp, and close at her heels came my friend Trevor, pale but composed, with

these very papers which lie upon my knee held in his grasp. He sat down opposite to me, drew the lamp to the edge of the table, and handed me a short note scribbled, as you see, upon a single sheet of gray paper. 'The supply of game for London is going steadily up,' it ran. 'Head-keeper Hudson, we believe, has been now told to receive all orders for fly-paper and for preservation of your hen-pheasant's life.' (Continued Tomorrow.)

FORECAST OF

(Continued from Page One.) lican senators who are frequently referred to as progressives, and he is popular with the new Republican senators.

Several of the new Republican mem-1

bers of the senate have been inclined to complain that Senator Lodge has not consulted with them on questions of party policy. The progressive bloc has at times objected to Lodge's conservative leadership. Face Great Program j The program of business which

will confront the senate when it reassembles is so great in magnitude that unless the senate creates a sys

tem under which it may be put through its accomplishments in accordance with President Harding's repeated recommendations cannot be counted upon. This explains the effort now being made to strengthen the Republican organization to meet the severe, test of the party's ability to legislate. This program includes the following subjects, in the order of their importance as viewed by most1 of the Republican senators. The Internal revenue taxation bill, the railroad refunding bill, the funding of the foreign debts of $11,000,000,000, the tariff, the peace treaty with Germany, the Newberry election case, proposed repeal of the

Panama Canal tolls, the amendments to the Volstead act. The revenue bill has the right of

way but it is probable that the peace j

treaty with Germany will be put ahead of anything. j Senator Watson has expressed the

opinion that the senate will dispose of the revenue bill within two weeks after it Is submitted by the finance committee. It will be considerably changed, as passed by the house, and the prospects are it will remain in conference for some time. However, Republican leaders are hopeful that

the new revenue act will go to the president by the first of December, at the latest.
