Second Day of Horse Show Proves of Great Inter--r.4-

It COULD not have been expected that
the second day of the Horso Show
, JS be attended as well . the first.
Ider the circumstances, for the first was
"nS holiday, you know, and I do not
telle' e I he ever seen so many on the
End and about the oval as there were on
Wednesday. Nevertheless, there was a
7r.ll attendance yesterday, and an en
fSlasc audience at that. It looks
If the debutante vintage of next

"Ae girls are so pretty and other years

No indeed: they wanted to see tho horses,

But to return to the debs. Peggy had
a lovely dark-bluo frock and close

We was much discussion between John

know, but who wore a hat much like
Mrs Bobby Cattatt. wanted to take the

eul-s sure whether Ford was another car
or a chauffeur. Somehow I feel It was
,. tin Lizzie, for John was not to be
.persuaded, and he finally Promised to
dress quickly and not even bathe, just
change his clothes. They really had to
hurry, because, you see, as Marie Louise

teem never to travel alone, arrived about
4 o'clock at the show. Sara Is certainly

a man say he would like to sketch her

brown furs.
Lisa Norrls. In a huge hat, and Alva
Sergeant came together and joined the
spectators about the oval. Of courso Lisa
had other things besides the hat.
It's funny how rumors start and sto
ries rise out of virtually nothing these
days. Only a little while -ago we all
heard that Constance Vauclain had sold
her horses and would not exhibit owing
to the clash at tho last Devon show; in
fact, It was whispered that she would not
b allowed to exhibit. And lo and behold!
her horses are winning prizes just as
before. I asked some one who knows
about It,' and this person said tho whole
thing was a semidream. It Is true that
Mils Vauclain became angry at ono of
the Judgments last year and left the ring,
tut she was back In less than ten min
utes and apologized very prettily for her
burst of temper, and It was all forgotten
until some one, who did not know of the
apology, announced the fact and made a
tig story out of It.
Margaretta Jeanes, by the way, Is
awfully attractive. She was at the show
wearing a stunning suit of lavender tyrol
wool and a sports hat of the same shade,
and the effect was perfectly lovely. "What

The children's classes are always Inter

seldom seen anything cuter than the
donkey class the first day; and the kiddles

marked, the little riders were really going
faster than the donkeys. Sounds am

Uiat I am right In repeating the remark.
INVERT day we are treated to surprises,
XJ but It Is owing to the war generally,
these days, that many do not wait to
announce their engagements before Join

'wedding 'which surprised many of her

THE LAYMAN'S IDEA OF HOW
CONTRABAND
A Romance of the North Atlantic
By RANDALL PARRISH
CII AFTER WWII (Continued)
MY EYUrt left her fare tn surxey the
others and the cockleshell In which we
floated I could hardly realize that we were
actually all there. I counted them like a bov
at school, reciting In class, even speaking
each name aloud Tho little boat bore up
bravely under its load, although White and
Olson wcro both balling and mv eves took
note of several charred spots along the gun
wale showing the touch of fire. Lenynril was
nt tho tiller, and seemed to comprehend all
that I wns most eager to learn.
"Ves, we're still ntloat. sir" he said, with
a sailor's hopefulness "But It's Oods
mercy. By every token we should have been
blown out of tho water when tho Indian
Chief exploded, but somehow tho gust of It
didn't hit us We was showered with fire,

Tho girl, sho saw you an' screamed; shed

"That must have been hours ago.
"Quite a spell, sir Something hed hit yer
head an' It bled a bit The young lady has
been' a holdln' yer on her lap ever since;
sho tore her skirt "
"Never mind that. Mr. Leavord," she In
terrupted, "we all of us did what we could.
Olson, will you pass back a biscuit nnd a
water bottle? Captain Hollls will regain
strength If he has something to eat"
I smiled at her nnd nccepted tho biscuit.
"How are wo fixed on food? I only want
my share."
"Wo hao had one apiece ; there were two
bags thrown In; we can thank McCann for
that, the poor devil "
The memory of that spectacle of horror
witnessed on the blazing deck came surt
denly back to me. nnd I hid mv eyes, every
muscle of my weakened body trembling I
felt Vera's nrms bold me tight.
"What Is It. Robert? You nre In pain?"
"No ; the suffering wns mental, not physi

flame No words can picture tho horror of
It Ood! let's not talk of that any longer.
I I must keep my mind."
"Yes, dear, wn will not talk of It," ten
derlv. "Our own situation Is surely bad
enough; you must tell tho men what to
do"
I lifted myself, strengthened by the ap
peal, eager to be diverted.
"The boat Is taking In water?"
"Not a great deal, sir; she is so deep
loaded some splashes over the gunwale
We're all right so long as the sea keeps
like It Is now."
"Are you steering by compass?"
"No. sir ; by sun. I Just naturally headed
west; that's the nearest coast. I reckon."
"Yes; It's a matter of guesswork. As
a rough reckoning I should think we might
be seventy miles at sea. We're overloaded,
but I Imagine many a fisherman's dory has
made a worse voyage In these waters."
"Aro these fishing seas, sir?"
"The best In the world. I've often read
of dory crews being lost In the winter fog,
nnd yet mnklng land In spite of the storm
nnd cold If they can do It In such weather
there Is no call for us to give up while the
boat floats. The first Job should be to rig
a sail; there is ono oar left?"
"'Aye. sir. nnd a paddle."
"Good enough Red, cut a hole In that
forward thwart with your sheath knife;
not too large, now Any canvas aboard?"
"Only these strips."
"They'll do for stays and to make se
cure. The sail will have to be a shirt
Olson, how about yours?"
He peeled it off without a word and
helped me fasten. It to the oar blade. It
was a rough bit of work, yet served the
purpose, and when we had stepped the
Improvised mast, bracing It as best we
could with the paddle, and the outspread
garment bellied out In the fairly fresh wind,
the sight put new heart Into all of us. I
could but note the fellows staring at It,
and then at the rushing of green water
alongside, as though calculating our prog,
ress. No doubt It was small enough, yet
the very knowledge that wo were moving
at nil tended to bolster our courage and
arouse hope.
"Isn't there enough left of that painter
rope to reach from the top of the oar blade
to the bow?" I asked. "Surely there Is;
run her through the ring bolt. Now who
will donate another shirt for a Jib?"
Red was the quickest, and In ten minutes
the dinghy wbb fairly lying down to It, the
two shirts one gray, the other mottled blue
bellying out bravely, their empty sleeves
flapping like signals ot distress, ai the
laden craft plunged and leaped though the
trembling water
' "Eat her a little. Leayord,"" I said. "Bet

HORSEPOWER IS DETERMINED.
There was nothing more to be done; the
boat rode steady, nnd one man could easily
keep her e'ear of water
The others disposed themselves as best
they might, occasionally exchanging a word
or two, hut mostly staring about at the ex
panse of sea Leayord hung on to the
tiller, while I held to Vera's hand, and we
spoke in low voices for each other nlonc.
"It Is wonderful," I whimpered, "how
you stand all this hardship; your eyes are
tired, but It has not otherwise marked
your face "
"I am Klad. It Is because you are with
mo I cannot tell you how I suffered while
you remained on board that ship. I cried
out for you ; I could not help it"
"And It was your olce which saved me."
I answered soberly "The sound of It
brought me to myself. I never had so
strange nn experience. Tho horror of that
sight suddenly revealed In smoke and flame;
my Inability to aid McCann seemed to com
pletely paralyze every faculty. I had the
feeling of a dead man; I could not move
hand or foot. Perhaps a bird feels that
way In the snare of a snake. It was your
cry your word 'Robert' which restored
me to life, and sent me hurtling over the
rail. You saved my life as much as
thoush you had reached out and grasped
me "
"Oh, I .am so glad ; all the love of my
heart was In that cry."
"What a. mistake we made when we
chose this voyage," I said regretfully, "it
has brought only hardship and peril "
"t do not regret." and her eyes cazed
frankly Into mine. "Truly I do not. There
was no other way for us to know nnd love.
Robert. If this was the end. I should be glad
of my choice. I would rather bo down here
In these waters clasped In your arms, than
to be compelled to live on In the world with,
out ou."
"Mv sweetheart : : but I will not Imaglno
surh n fate W o have struggled on through
too much to have the end come In this
desolate ocenn. We must win tho New-
1UUHUI.1IIU i-uasi is not so far away and
these nre sailors with us. You trust and
love me?" '
"With all my heart."
"Together we will have faith In Ood "
I do not know how long we talked In such
sweet intimacy as we hart never known be
fore. I must have been weak, I think from
the wound I had received, and the loss of
blood ; for. In splto of every effort I felt
an uneonnuerable drowsiness, my head
drooping forward Sho was quick to notice
this, urging mo to rest acalnst her shoulder
but I refused. '
"Then I will mako you sleep." sho said
quietly "Oh. yes I will, for the safety of
us all may depend on your wakefulness
tonight Lie down here with your head
In my lap. Robert. I insist you must
ricase do; oh. thank you. Now don't trv
to talk Just sleep." lry
Her hand softly stroked my temples her
shoulders shielding me from the sun' her
sweet face bending over me; her eyes
smiling confidently Into mine, my own grew
misty, nnd I Anally lost consciousness even
of her presence.
She told me later that I lay there motion
less for two hours, so still, so roftly breath
ing, ns to almost frighten her. Twice she
leaned close to assure herself that I did
actually breathe, and her fingers felt for the
beat of pulse nt my wrist.
uU u ?, ,,he coma.of "heer exhaustion.
The bull-like roar of a startled volca for
ward awoke me I caught no word only
the sound, but there was a note to It like
the violence of a blow I sat up, staring
about, the entire scene within the range
of vision photographing itself upon my
brain. The ocean heaved In long green bil
lows, crested with foam, the boat rising
and falling as steadily as a rocking chair
the sun no longer beat down upon us from
a cloudless sky, but appeared as a fiery red
disk through a cloud of vapor, which swept
along the surface of the water obscuring
the circle of horizon. Liverpool stood erect
In tho boat's bow, holding himself firm by
gripping the Inverted oar, his free hand
hollowed to make a trumpet of his voice
Every other face was turned forward, yet
for an Instant the flapping shirts. Impro
vised for sails, prevented my seeing the
cause of excitement Then Leayord, with
an oath, Jammed down his helm and the
dinghy swept to port, mounting a wave
crest like a bird In flight, and there burs't
out directly ahead the sharp prow of a two.
masted schooner, bearing straight down
toward us, sailing before the wind.

Whatever It may lack dramatlcarty.Th
Silent Lie." makes a bully travelogue- IU
glimpses of northern smows are particularly
beautiful, as seen through the fine ln of
Cameraman Clawson, who "shot" "Hypo
rrits" nnd some pictures for Thomas K.
Ince. While he hasn't gone In for many
effects In "The Silent Lie," Clawsort pwy
be voted the hero of the occasion. Hardly
ran that title be given either Mr, Walsh,
excellent director that he Is, or Lirrjr
Evans Perhaps "Conahan" was lucid,
straightforward, touching Hs screen
adaptation Is merely a long-drawn-out pres
entation of a familiar situation. Further
more, what has hnppened to "The Silent
Lie"? There aro Indications that the
heroine has done something which she feara
to confess to her lover, yet the previous
action merely shows her to be the daughter
of a crooked gambler and herself the un
willing dealer at his faro table. The acting
Is melodramatically good, with Miss Cooker
looking ns lovely hut hardly as Impressive
as In "Intolerance " Other effective blu ar
supplied by Monroe Salisbury and Ralph

H A Rolfe, without disclosing the xhy
fore and wherefore, nevertheless. Insist that
he has at present locked up In a safe
deposit vault the only authentic motion
pictures of the German Hlgh-Seas Fleet
In action, Including scenes of the sinking
of the Gnelsenau, Spandeau and Bremer

to be shown for the first time In this coun

gives credit for the discovery to A S. le
Vino, who prepared the story for the film.
Another set of scenes Is said to show' a
running battle between a Russian gunboat
and a German cruiser
Charlie Chaplin's next picture will t
called "The Immigrant " After weeks of
work the film has been completed at th
Lone Star studio, near Los Angeles. Many
of the scenes tn "The Immigrant" wer
taken in the steerage of an ocean liner.
Charlie plays the role of an Immigrant,
bound for the land of liberty Arriving
In America without funds, he discovers that
money is not picked up on the streeL as he
supposed, and he begins the game of bluff
lo beat the high cost of living.
