MISS EDITH L. SMITH
Miss Smith is the daughter of Mr.'

1108 Spruce street and Cape May.
Her engagement to Mr. McCluxo
Fahnestock was announced a month
ago.
not Dave. Ho was searching vainly but
with dangerous eagerness for pictures In
his mother's prayer book and hymnal.
Hoping to divert his thoughts and savo
tho prayer book, I informed him that
his mothor used that when alio went to
church. Evidently this meant nothing
in tho young man's life. Desperately I
continued, "Do you like to go to church,
David?" "I don't go to church," ho an
swered, examining tho Litany with great
care. "Don't you ever go to church?" I
insisted. Ho was boTed by that time.
"No," he said airily, "I never go to
church. My mother takes mo some
times." That child' will bo heard from
ono of these days lu ono way or another.
T HEAR Mrs. Atterbury and her fam---
ily of kiddles have taken a cottage at
Capo May. Mrs. Atterbury, you know,
was Armenia Uosengarten, better known
to her intimates as "Minnie." Sho mar
ried Malcolm MacLeod about fifteen years
ago, and somo five years since obtained a
divorce from him. Sho has threo Mac
Leod children, Elizabeth, Malcolm, Jr.,
and Harry. About threo years ngo she
married W. W. Atterbury, ono of the ofil
clals of the Pennsylvania Railroad, nnd
they luivo lived out at Radnor since then.
They have ono child, I understand.
Mrs. Atterbury is a sister of Mrs. Lewis
Neilson, you know, and of tho younger
Joe Rosengarten; of George, who marrlod
Susio Price; of Adolph, whose wife was
Christine Penrose, nnd of Fritz, who mar
ried Mai Ion Sims, tho youngest of the
threo nttractivo daughters of the late
Mr. John Clark Sims and Mrs. Sims.
Mrs. Sims, by tho way, hasjust left her
Chestnut Hilt homo to visit her sister,
Mrs. Eugene Ellicott, at her home In
East Hampton.
DON'T you often wander across the
seas In thought to our boys In France
nnd wonder just whero they nro now and
what they are doing and whether thoy
aro yet near the trenches? Among tho&el
young men who went over with the Fifth
Regiment of marines from here were
Syd Thayer, the son of Ir. and Mrs.
Sydney Thayer, of Haverford, and Henry
Geyelln, sop of Mr. and Mrs. Honry
Laussat Geyelln, of Vlllanovn, Sydney
Gest, too, the 'son of Judgo Marshall
Gest, of Overbrook, and, In fact, there
were fourteen young men from the Main
Lino in that regiment.
They had all enlisted in tho marine
corps reserve, and were transferred at
the last moment to the Fifth, for when
they heard tljoro was a chance of imme
diate service nhead, thoy gavo up all
chanco of becoming officers by training
nt homo and managed to get transferred
to tho iramediato service branch. Their
transfer was made only twenty-four
houra beforo sailing time, and thoy are
now with General Pershing "Somewhere
In France."
IT SEEMS that the Scotts and Pan
coasts have a special affinity for each
other, does it not?" You remember how
devoted Betty Scott Clark and Gertrude
Pancoast were the year they came out.
Well, now the latest inseparability is
Pansy Scott, Betty's first cousin, and
Polly Pancoast, Gertrude's sister, both of
whom are to come out. next season If
thero Is anything to corAe but for or
about. ' (
Generally speaking, X think there will
be very little coming out, for this war U
too serious a thing for us to feel freo to
frivol much of the time away. Well, be
that as it may. Pansy Is, visiting Polly
down at Capo May for several weeks,
and Rachel Price, another deb to be, is
down there, too, staying-with Mildred
Longstrcth.
The little newly-wed Tllghmans, Dick
and Mary, are at that resort also. They
are stopping at the Chalfonto for several
weeks. And the William Sewalls and
Ned iSayens havo Joined the Cape May

THE DAY OF WRATH
A STOKY OF 1011
By Louis Tracy
OIIAPTEH XII (Continued)
"D1
A.MN Oie weather!" ho grunted. "Como
Into tho bar. You can walk, I sup
pose? '
He turned on tho torch, which was con
trolled by a sliding button, nnd saw how
tho prisoner was secured. Then bo Hashed
the light Into tho Interior of tho bnrn. It
was a ramshackle, plaeo at tho best, and
looking peculiarly forlorn after the rummag
ing It bad undergone slnco tho light, a re
cent picket having ovidently torn down
stalls and mangers to provide materials for
a fire. Part of a long sloping ladder had
baen consumed for that purpose, so that
nn open trap-door In tho boarded lloor of
an Upper story was Inaccessible. The barn
Itself was unusually lofty, running to n
height of twenty feet or more Thero wera
no windows. Somo rats, tempted out al
ready by the oats spilled from the horses'
nose-bags, scuttled away from tho light.
Through tho trap-door tho noise of the
rain pounding on a shingle roof camo with
a curious hollowness.
Von Ilalwlg did "not extinguish the lamp,
but tucked It under his left arm. He lighted
a cigarette. With each movement of his
body the beam of light hhlftcd. Now It
played on the wall, against which Dalrdy
leaned, because the cramped state of hl-s
anna was already becoming Irksome ; now
It Bhone through tho doorwny, forming a
sort of luminous blur In the rnln, now It
dwelt on the Englishman stnndlng there In
his worn blouse, baggy breeches, and sabots,
an old llanncl shirt open at the neck, and
a month's growth of beard on cheeks and
chin The hat which Irene made fun of
had been tilted at a rakish angle when tho
corporal removed the cloak. Certainly ho
was changed In essentials slnco ho nnd the
gunrdBman last met face to face on tho
platform at Alx-la-Chapelle.
But the eyes were unalterable. They
wero still resolute, and strangely calm, bo
cause ho had nerved himself not to flinch
before this strutting popinjay.
"You wonder why I havo brought you
In here, eh?" began Von Ilalwlg, In Eng
lish. "Perhaps to gloat over me," waB tho
quiet reply.
"No. Is It necessary? At Alx I was
excited Tho Day had como. The Day of
which we Uermans have dreamed for many
a year. I am young, but I have already
won promotion I belong to an Irresistible
army War steadies a man. But when we
reach Oombergen you will bo paraded be
fore n cruBty old general, and evon I, Van
Hnlwlg of tho staff, and a friend of tho
Emperor, may not converse with a spy
and a murderer. So we Bhall have a little
chat now. What say you?"
"It all depends what you wish to talk
about."
"About you and her ladyship, of course."
"May I ask whom you mean by 'her
ladyship'?"
"Isn't that correct English?"
"It can bo, If applied to a lady of title.
But when used with reference presumably
to a young lady who Is a governess. It
sounds like clumsy sarcasm."
"Governess tho devil! With whom, then,
havo you been roaming Belgium?"
"Miss Irene Bcresford, of course."
"You're not a fool, Captain Dalroy. Do
you honestly tell me you don't know?"
"Know what?"
'That the girl you brought from Berlin
Is Lady Irene Beresford, daughter of tho
Earl of Glastonbury."
There was a moment of Intense silence.
In some ways It was Immaterial to Dalroy
what social position had been filled by tho
woman he loved. But, In others, the dis
covery that Irene was actually tho aris
tocrat she looked was n very vital nnd
serious thing. It made clear the meaning
of certain references to distinguished peo
ple, both In Germany and In England, which
had puzzled him at times. Transcending all
else In Importance, It might even safeguard
her from German malevolence, since the
Teuton pays an absurd homage to mere
rank."
"I did not know," he said, and his voice
was not so thoroughly under control as he
desired
Von Ilalwlg laughed loudly. "Almachtlg!"
he spluttered, "our smart corporal of hus
sars seems to have spoiled a romance.
What a pity! You'll be shot beforo mid
night, my gallant captain, but the lady
will be sent to Berlin with the utmost care.
Even I, who have an educated taste In the
female line, daren't wink at her. Hns sho
never told you why she bolted in such a
hurry?"
"No."
"Never hinted that a royal prince was
wild about her?"
"No."
"Well, you have my word for It Hlm
mel I women are queer."
"She has suffered much to escape from
your royal prince."
"She'll be returned to him now, slightly
soiled, but nearly as good as new."
"I wish my hands wero not tied."
"Oh, no heroics, please. We have no
time for nonsense of that sort. Is the
light Irritating you? I'll put It here."
Von Ilalwlg stooped and placed the torch
on 'the broken ladder. Its radiance illu
mined an oval of the rough, square stone
with which the barn was pavtd. Thence
forth the vivid glare remained stationary.
The two men, facing each other at a dis
tance of about six feet, were in shadow.
They could sea each other quite well, how
ever. In the dim borrowed light, and the
Guardsman flicked the ash from hla cigar
ette. "You're EngllBh; I'm aerman," he said.
"Wii reoresent the positive and negative
poles of thought. If it hurts your feelings
that I should speak of Lady Irene, let's
forget her. What I really want to ask you
is this why has England been so mad aa
to fight Germany?"

They give tho most
wig's Innuendoes with regard to Irene, he
nearly laughed
"I'm in no mood to discuss International
politics," he nnswered curtly.
Tho other, who seemed to have his tem
per well under control, merely nodded In
deed, he was obviously. If unconsciously,
modeling his behavior on that of his pris
oner. "I only Imagined that you might bo In
terested In hearing what's going to happen
to your damned country," he said
"I know already. Sho will emergo from
this struggle greater, moro renowned, more
Invincible than ever."
"Dummes zeug! All rubbish! That's
your House of Commons nnd music-hall
patter, meant to tlcklo the ears of the
British worklngman England is going to

her now. You've been In Belgium a month,
and must havo seen things which your
stupid John Bulls at home can't even com
prehend, which they never will comprehend
tlir too late "
Ho paused, awaiting a reply perhaps.
Nono camo.
"It rough luck that you, a soldier llko
myself, may not share In the game, even
on tho losing side." went on von Ilalwlg.
"But you would be n particularly danger
ous sort of spy If you contrived to rcacn
England, especially with tho Information
I'm now going to glvo you. You can't pos
sibly escape, of course.- You will bo ex
ecuted, not ns a spy, but as a murderer.

"You flatter mo," put In Dalroy. "I may
havo shot one fellow In tho wood, a real
spy. named Schwartz. But that Is all. Your
men killed ono another there."
"Tho credit was given to you," was tho
dry retort. "But es 1st mlr ganz elnerlel

Our armies are near Paris. German cav

mado a great startd, and fought a four
days' rearguard action which will figure
In the textbooks for the next fifty years.
But the French nro broken, the English ex
peditionary force nearly destroyed. The
French Government has deserted Paris for
Bordeaux. And, excuse mo If I laugh, Lord
Kitchener has asked for a hundred thou
sand mora men 1"
"He will get Ave millions If he needs
them."
Vn Hnlwlg swept tho retort aside with
an impatient flourish.
"Too lato! Too late I I'll prove It to you.
Turkey Is Joining us. Bulgaria will come
in when wnnted. Greece won't lift a flngor
In tho Balkans, and a great army of Turks
led by Germans will march on Egypt South
Africa will rise In rebellion. Ireland is
qulat for the time, but who knows what
will happen when sho sees England on her
knees? Italy is sitting on tho fenco. The
United States are sniveling, but German
influence is too strong out thero to permit
of nctlvo interference. And, in any event,
what can America do except look on, shiv
ering at the prospect of her own turn com
ing next? Ilussla Is making a stir In East
Prussia and along the Austrian frontier,
so poor old England Is chortling because
tho Slav is fighting her battles. It Is to
laugh. Wo'll pen the Bear long before ho
becomes dangerous. I am not boasting, my
friend. Why should I, Captain von Ha,
wig, of the Imperial Guard, be messing
about In a wretched Flemish village when
our men aro about to storm Paris In tho
west and tacklo Itussla in the east? I'll
explain. I'm here because I know Eng

BEHAVIOR,NOT CLOTHES,
WHAT COUNTSJN CHICAGO
Judge Won't Fino Fair Bather in Scant
Costume, Found on
Street
CHICAGO. July 17. Bathing BUlt privi
leges will not be restricted to the beaches
while Judge. Hayes lays down the law. The
Judge. In dismissing a charge against Miss
Katharine Slmauek, who was arrested near
Manhattan Beach, declared that scantiness
of clothing was not in itself sufficient rea
son for arresting persons In the street.
"Streets and sidewalks are publlo prop
erty, and citizens have the right to walk
on them whether they wear skirts, panta
loons or bathing suits," Judge Hayes de
clared. "As long as their behavior is proper
they cannot bo denied the freedom of tho
thoroughfare."
Miss Slmauek's arrest followed the Issu
ance of nn order by Chief of Police Schet
tier last Friday instructing commanding
officers to enforce regulations which Chief
Healey promulgated last year, prohibiting
persons In bathing suits from wandering
away from the beaches wearing only those
costumes.
"Police regulations are not law," the
Judge said, "and I don't Intend to assess

DARING DAMSELS KEEP
SHORE COPS JUMPING
Exercise Amnzing Ingenuity in
Dodging Regulations Cover
ing Bath Etiquette
ATLANTIC CITY, July 17.
Clly authorities nro In a quandary, for
they simply cannot mako the bathing girl
behave. No sooner aro bathing regulations
announced thnn the bntblng girl setii her
mind nt work to see how to dodge the
regulations.
For example, the rule went forth that
abbreviated garb would not be tolerated
on thv strand. Presto! tho bathing girl
dons n "triangular" skirt, pointed In front
to come to the knees, nnd abbreviated nt
the sides to reach the waist line!
Another order was that girls must not
batho without their stockings, nnd the an
swer to that edict was 'lesh-colored hosiery
nnd tights that worried the beach coppers
something awful!
To rule, or not to rule, that Is the ques
tion. Last year no ery strlngont rules
wero laid down for tho bathing glrlsv with
the result that things wero rnther lax on
tho strand, nnd fair mnlilens vied with one
another Vo see how little they could wenr
with comfort. This season there nro many
rules, with life guards, policemen and
women sleuths to enforce them, nnd despite
tho fact thnt many a daring damsel has
been entertained for hours In the city bas
tlle, the dodging gnme still goes merrily
on Life on the strand was never so Inter
esting or diversified, as It is this summer.
Many nil-black surf rigs wero worn this
morning cut sleeveless with decidedly
dccolleto neck, back and front. Just llko a
party frock, and held on by the filmiest
straps. The ocean was so rough that one
gill had her straps dislocated nnd she hnd
to tlo her suit on with her Bweater!
Another evidence of the way propriety
rules nt tho shore this summer was given
by tho scattering of the "roll birds" ns
men who loiter about tho walk and lounge
ngnlnst tho rnlllng nre termed. Flirting
Is virtually abolished here, since the lady

JERSEY PRISON MPWt
ON TRIAL BY BOARB
Sharp Clashes Mark Hearing on.
Charges of Taking Cash to
Get Parole
TRENTON. July 17. Charge nnd cou'
ter charges Involving officials of the Stat
prison wero hurled back and forth
at a hearing given by the board of inspec
tors to John Y. Freoman, the deputy keeper
w-ho was suspended recently on a charge of
receiving money from ajbonvlct to aid 1
procuring a parole. w
The essence of the case jva disclosed
was that about a year ago h nego
tiated with Annabele Glgllo, a convict from
Hudson County, serving a long term, to
bring Glgllo's case before the Court of
PardonB. Freeman obtained letters, some
or tho signatures to which are now -declared
to be forgeries, for presentation to
tho court.
Glgllo himself testified that he had di
rected the payment of $16 from his funds
In possession of the prison authorities to a
man whose name he did not know, but
which ho said had been suggested by'Free
man. Glgllo asserted that payment to a
third party was agreed upon to divert sus
picion from Freeman.
Freeman's defense was a complete denial
that he had received the money. Another
witness, N. Keupcr, to whom the check
was drawn by the prison authorities, testi
fied that more than JH of the 115 repre
sented expenses in obtaining a letter from
the father of the girl whom Glgllo had
wronged, urging his release upon parole.
ADMITS OLD SUSPICION
Ono Interesting disclosure was a state
ment by Chief Deputy Keeper James Ker
sey to tho effect that for some time he had
suspected Freeman of being tho Instigator
of much of tho testimony of convicts
against tho prison management during re
cent investigations by the Prison Inquiry
Commission. Mr Kersey would not admit
thnt his suspicions had played Any part in
prompting tho proceedings against Freeman
in the Glgllo case, though he did admit
that when Information was brought to him
that Freeman had been Instrumental In
getting letters In Glgllo's behalf ho started
an Investigation which resulted In the dis
covery of tho check to Kcuper and Glgllo's
subsequent admission that the money was
Intended for Freeman.
While on tho stand Freeman openly
charged that ns a result of Investigations
at tho prison an attempt had been mads
to Inaugurate a reign of terror to prevent
convicts from giving testimony that might
bo harmful to the deputies or other prison
olllclals. Freeman cited Bovernl instances of
alleged Intimidation and after he had re
ferred to numerous remarks alleged to have
been made hy deputies, Principal Keeper
James H Mulheron demanded that he nam
tho keepers Instead of referring to them tn
general terms.
ACCUSES THREE DEPUTIES
Interrogated on this point Freeman
named Deputies Edgar L. Horner, John
Coxon and James Devlin and quoted re
marks which he attributed to each. It is
anticipated that these three deputies will
bo called to testify when the hearing Is
resumed next Friday.
Tho proceedings have nreclnltated a
number of sharp clashes between Freeman's
counsel, Emanuel P. Scheck, of Newark,
and Francis McOeo, of the attorney gen
eral's oince, who conducted the hearing for
the board. Tho disputes dealt largely with
how much lntltude should bo given Mr.
Scheck in Introducing testimony which Mr.
McGee held was Irrelevant and much of
which Involved matters now pending be
foro tho Prison Inquiry Commission.
