i "if lie is you can count mo as t'r.o last!" flung out Peggy, i ushing fro. i
the room.
When Rowdy Dow came to prr a his matrimonial suit that eveniu ; Peggy had quieted down. In fact,, she was sorry she had been tt forceful in expressing her though, t to the man she secretly almir 1 above all others, but her fathers reprimands had nothing to do v/."i .this change of heart. When Randolph, with expressionless face, crossed the reception room on hit. way to the bar, Rowdy caught Peggy's furtive look of contrition, and realized there was something more back of it. "I thought so," he murmured , that's why you're not interested la
me."
"You'd better go home," said Peg-

Seated alone at one end of a long table in the Franklin taproom was Daniel Webster, his mndkive head bowed in meditation. The greatest orator the American Senate has ever known was absorbed in his thoughts — and his mir.t julep. He paid no apparent heed to the sounds of laughter at the small tables bade of him, nor did he glance upwards at the walls of the room, adoi-ned with portraits of Washington, Jefferson and Benja-
min Franklin.

“Father,” she asked with seeming innocence, "why didn't you tell
me v.'e hud company?"
Major O'Nealo accepted the cue md proudly introduced hl.s daughter to the newly arrived guests. Professor Sunderland seized the opportunity to join a compliment for Peggy with a bit of sarcasm directed at his naval traveling companion. "A most pleasant ending to a
heaved a sigh of relief, and soize’l the chance for a private conferenca
with Peggy.
“You know. I’ve made an intensive study of hands," he said. "May
I see yours?"
Pegpy held out her palm, halfbelieving that this magr.t tic visitor could Indeed determine her fortune from the convolutions visible there. "A magnificant coalescence of lines," said Sunderland, after a pro-
rn'.her unpleasant journey, Miss O Neale," he said with a bow. Slightly embarrassed when she realized she was the center of so many admiring masculine eyes, Peggy slipped over to Daniel webstei'« table. "Isn’t anyone taking care of you, Mr. Webster?" she Inquired. No one was proof against Peggy's volatile spirits, and the famous statesman drew himself out of his reverie. "Have you shaped any new political doctrines-. Peggy?’ he asked. "Political doctrines?” she echoed. “Why. I'm nothing but an impressionable young woman.’’ "Who might all too easily fall under the influence of a benighted States Rights' rebel,” said Webster meaningfully. "If you nu an your dearest enemy John Randolph," said Peggy, "he left me to walk homo alone on some silly excuse about state business.” "State of Virginia business, I'll warrant," cried Webster, catching up her words. "Not the business of the United States." This thrust was perfectly timed, for at that very moment Senator Randolph's rathi r angular shadow fell across the threshold. Like two lions ready to join in combat, he and Webster exchanged piercing glances. "Is it true, Senator Randolph,” asked Webster, "that you eaid the state of Virginia would never submit to any distasteful laws hatched by the frozen-noses of Massachusetts and Connecticut?" “No,” said Randolph coldly, drawing himself up, “but I do say the state of Virginia will never submit to any violation of her sovereign rights, be it an amendment forbidding slavery, or any other illconceived law." "What will the state of Virginia do about it?” retaliated Webster. "She will prevent the enforcement of that law within her bounds!" cried his verbal antagonist. # “1 w arn you. sir,” thundered Web«tor?*"that the Stars and Stripes will never become a pocket handkerchief of any Virginian!" "If the price of Union is the individual freedom of the states," replied Randolph, weighing his phrase deliberately, "then let us have done with Union!” Peggy, hating any semblance of * political quarrel, had slipped over to the doorway, but when these heated words reached her cars she was unable to restrain herself. "John Randolph, that's treason!" she cried, turning. “If it weren't for the Union you and your little state would still be making bows to England!” "Margaret.” said Randolph, not knowing quite bow to handle his
found study. "Just as I thought, Ab ly.te ignem." "What on earth docs that mean? 1 * asked Peggy. "From fire comes fire,” was the reply. "Deep down in your soul a flume burns eternally. A flame which has a magic power." Peggy involuntarily drew her hand away. The Professor sensed that It was time to terminate the preliminary examination, and looked up at her with a disarming smile. "I should be honored," ho said, “if you'd permit mo to give you a more complete reading. Perhaps tomorrow?” Peggy smiled her approval of this suggtAstlon Meanwhile. Inside the taproom, John Randolph was listening to some stories narrated by Lieutenant Tlmberlako. As the l ittei array of empty glasses i n. e, his spirits became more and more ebullient. “Shall you bo on shore leave long?” asked Randolph. “I hadn't intended to," said Bow, “but I find it curiously interesting.” "If you mean Marg iret,” said the Senator, following his glance, "I support you. I sometimes think sha knows more politics than I do." “You’re forgetting her be t points, aren’t you?" laughed Row. "What do you mean?” asked Randolph. “Oh, come,” rejoined Row. "Wo don't have to mince words about a pretty little tavern girl." Before he knew what had happened Lieutenant Timbcrlakc was knocked back over his chair. Ha rose to see Randolph's eyes glaring at him like those of some nocturnal animal. He hadn't dreamed that such a seemingly cold man could give way to euch a burst of physical violence, “I rather like you,” said Randolph. "I wouldn't want to do you any further harm.” “I'm not afraid of that ” replied Bow, genuinely dazed "But what the devil was it I said just now?" “I'm sorry,” said Randolph, fa!:* Ing the other by the arm "I must explain. You see. Margaret was just a little youngster in pigtails when I first came to the Inn, and I forget every now and then that to others she isn't that any more.” "I understand,” eaid Bow. taking his hand “It was stupid of me to talk as I did.” { Together they raised a glass in silent toast to the absent subject of the quarrel.
