aro going to leave soon for New York,
Where they will live ln the future. Mrs.
Chandler was Helen Boyd, of Haverford.
She Is a daughter of Mr. James Boyd, who
Is snendlng tho summer at Haverford
Court. IJer brother, Fisher Boyd, you
remember, married Joe Wood. Do you
lso remember what a tragic tlmo they
had? The original date of the wedding
had td bo changed, for Fisher was sud
denly taken down with scarlet fever at
the Wood's homo soma few days before
the weddlnc; date, and had to bo nursed
. through his Illness there, because they,
of course, would not allow him to bo
taken to the Municipal Hospital, and so
had a nurse and everything there for
him. However, It ended happily, for ho
got well and they wero married and have
lived happily ever after.

well-gowned and distinguished looking
woman (who, Incidentally, happened to
bta a member of a F. F. P.) It would bq
better to draw the conclusion that said
gentleman hnd Invited tho lady to go sco
the picture with him, had called for her
and was returning her safely to her home,
than to decide, as they did, that hero was
a flagrant case ln front of their very
eyes!
What did theso two detectives do but
step up to this very eminently respectable
ond refined pair and offer to conduct them
to mo station liou.se, just ns .Mr. was
about to hand tho young lady into the
car and then to follow her.
Imagtno tho girl's feelings and the In
dignation of tho gentleman in question!
Really, It was absolutely outrageous. Ho
appealedo a nearby policeman, who ro
fused to Interfere, and In spite of all that
was said tho tvo zealcus detectives wero
about to conduct them to headquarters
when one fortunately had the senso to ask
who the gentleman was, and when thqy
found his name and the firm which they
knew him to represent they actually had
enough gray matter to realize they had
.not only made a mistake, but a pretty
grave 'one, and so they allowed the Indig
nant gentleman and the very much fright
ened and horrified young lady to go their
ways.
Knowing the man and woman In ques
tion, It was a bit funny she Is so digni
fied but still it was not an experience
any one would exactly seek out.
DRILLS AND RED CROSS

British and Canadian Officers

On Sumlny afternoon tlio rookies had a
drill In honor of tho Hrltlf-h nnd Canndlnn

a recruiting campaign. Tho drill wns'held
on tho Philadelphia Military Training Corps

In addition to tho drill thorp uns n sham

And then there wero lied Cross nurses on
the Held, too, setting up their tents, and
doing rescuo work.
Speaking of lied Cross, the women con

ns busy ns hees, nnd If a "fled Crosser"
isn i nt ner liome, you nre pretty sure to
find her nt the Hed Cross Hous? You see.
hecniiRo there hns been such a very great
demand for hospital Garments for inlillors
nnd snllor boys, tho I.ansdowne hrnnch has

WAS fine, tho way, some men and
omen contrived to give the enlisted
men of tho navy yard a good tlmo on Sun
day. Fifty strong, they nnlved nt tho
Presbyterian chutch on Chelten avenue ln
tlmo for tho morning tervlce, and after a
bcrmon preached by tho Rev. Melville
Gurlcy, one of tho flvo Gurley men who
are devoting their lives to their country,
they went here and thero to the homes of
the various members of tho church for
dinner.
Motor rides made for a Jolly afternoon,
and ln some places Just doing nothing
but telling of their own homes and what
they liked best to do seemed to be what
some of them most enjoyed.
Cigars, cigarettes and candy were to
be found on porch tables, on chairs or any
placo that was handy, for that matter,
until they found their way Into a much
safer place.
Somo of the men wero entertained at
dinner at the Germantown Cricket Club,
and afterward watched tho drilling of the
minute men of that club. Sunday.supper
was another function, and then they
hopped on to trolloys, trains and motors
and reported at the yard at 8 o'clock.
THE Ttev. Mr. Gurley, by tho way, has
been appointed secretary of the War
Work Council of the Y. M. C. A. of North
America for service with the American
expeditionary forces in 'France and Eng

with him as soon as next month. When
he reaches the other side he will assume
his dutlea In one of' the Y. M. C. A. huts
at the front.
General Haig has been heard to say
that he considered this branch of the
service as indispensable to any army. So
Mr. Gurley will carry many good wishes
for the success of his wqrk, though I

will take an active part in the
dante to be. given on Friday,
Auwat .3, at the Royal Palace in
In his hand. Slapping tho morning editions,
scareheads, uppermost In front of tho ser
geant, ho blurted out:
"What's this here?"
Tho tergeant glanced at the topmost
sheet and bklmmed rapidly over the de
tails. "Don't know where they got tho faats,
but It looks like they got 'em right."
Tho captain scratched his head, then for
tho next few minutes be looked out of the
window nnd watched tho passing throng:
ho was pondering deeply. Finally ho in
quired: "What did you do?"
Tho desk sergeant grjnned.
"Not a blonmin' thing." he answered,
Tho captain shot a glance of surprised
approval nt his Inferior.
"For onco, by gum," ho conceded "you
hit tlm jnll upon tho head. This Isn't a
case for tho police not yet."
"Then for who?" The desk sergeant
looked dubious.
"For I'eter Broderlck," said the captain,
nodding.
"What's Peter Broderlck got to do with
It?" Inquired the desk sergeant, still doubt
ful. The captain seized tho telephone, but
paused to explain:
"I'eter Broderlck has got everything to
do with It, since the people put this blath
erskite Murgatroyd Into the prosecutor's
office. You know ns well as I do that
there's been ton many rumpuses In Cradle
baugh's and Murgatroyd sent word from
tho courthouse that the place would bo
closed up, cleaned out, If there was any
more trouble there."
"And Broderlck?" persisted the sergeant
"Broderlck gave me orders to be tipped
off hard when anything happens to Cradle
baugh's no matter what And that." con
cluded tho captain, "is enough for you and
me: we've got to obey orders see?"
He removed tho receiver from Its hook
and was about to talk to Central, but
cnangeu his mind, hung up tho receiver,
"'j rounn on mo sergeant and nsked
,M-' jwii K(mK nome .'
The other stretched his arms and yawned.
"Ves. Why?"
The captain passed over two black cigars.
"Smoke 'cm they'll keep you nwakc. And
say," ho went on, placing his hand sooth
ingly upon tho other's nnn, "you wouldn't
mind looking up Chairman Peter Broderlck,
would you? It Isn't everybody I can trust"
He seized a pad and wrote haRtlly for a
moment, nnd finally handing the slip or
paper to the sergeant, ndded :
l'lrst, try theso four addresses. If he's
not nt any of these, then try his home:
you'll be sure to find him there. But see
him don't take no for on answer, nnd
after you havn told him tho wholo story,
get his orders see?"
It took nn hour nnd a half to locate
Chairman I'eter Broderlck, the sergeant
found him homo In his rooms on the
ground floor of tho Iroquois Club. He
waited for somo time before he could gain
nceess to that estimable gentleman, for
I'eter Broderlck's hour for rising wns high
noon. Tho boy who aroused him nwakened
a Blumberlng lion; the Iroquois Club cow
ered when Btodcrlok woke up: others cow
ered, too Broderlck's word wns law every
where, nnd yet bo wore no badge of au
thority, held no olllce he did not even
want one Ho was higher than authority,
stronger than civic force: he was power
personified Ho had attained that mystical
position In tho universe, known wherever
men cast ballots ns Chairman of tho County
Committee, which meant to owe no man
n duty, but to demand servitude nnd fealty
from every man. It meant more it meant
to hold tho bag' It meant that whatever
I'eter Broderlck wanted ho got.
"Woll '" roared Broderlck to tho ser
geant, "what In thunder do you want?"
The desk sergeant briefly set forth his
credentials and nuthority, and then plunged
boldly Into tho purpose "of his presence.
'The captnln wants to know what he's
to do about this Hnrgrnves murder."
Broderlck stared hard nt him
"Hargraves murder!"' ho repeated. "What
Hnrgraves?"
Tho sergeant told him.
"Great Scott I' so he's dend. Confound
him! Ho bled me like thunder at 'draw
the last time I met him!"
The sergeant went on to glvo him the
facts; Broderlck the whllo was thinking
deeply. Finally ho Interrupted the other
with tho question:
"Look here, sergeant, what was there to
prevent Hargraves being shot down by a
highwayman or a thug? Can you tell me
that?"
"Officer Keogh says "
"Hnng OfTlcer Keogh!" yelled Broderlck,
"Keogh Is going to say nothing but what's
he told to say. Look here do you know
who killed Hargraves?"
"No."
"Does anybody know?"
"Not t."
"So far so good. Now, then, that's a
well as Crdlbauh'i havrfah'oprtilnt on
inat tret, hvn't thy? I say thtt this
thing wasn't pulled off Inside of Cradle
baugh's j It was the work of an unknown
assassin a thug. Do you understand?" he
declared emphatically.
"Vou want the captain to work it out
on that theory I Isn't that It?"
"I don't want the captain to work It
out on any theory 1" yelled Broderlck. "Let
the captain sit still do nothln'l say
nothln' I 1'ni doln' this thing I'll work out
all the necessary theories 1 Do you hear?"
"The captain told me to remind you that
Trosecutor Murgatroyd "
Broderlck sprang to his feet and stood
glowering over the sergeant.
"Murgatroyd 1 Nobody hns to remind me
of Murgatroyd confound hlml I'm always
being reminded of him. He's the onlx
officeholder In this burg that hasn't got the
decency to know that what I say goes I
Sergeant." ho went on confidentially, "this
Is n blamed important thing, and before I
do anything I'm going downtown to consult
Mr. Ornham Thorne. I'll bring him up to
Cradlcbauch's; you tell your captain to
meet us there In nn hour nnd a half. That's
all he's got to do nil you've got to do
I'll do the rest Now got"
Twenty minutes later Broderlck waddled
Into tho private office of Graham Thorne,
Esquire, counselor at law.
"Thorne." he exclaimed, lounging back
comfortably In a chair, "have you seen
about this thing? Do you know what hap
poned thero last night?"
Thorno smiled grimly and pointed to the
pile of morning papers on his desk.
"I knew about It nt 6 o'clock this morn
ing. I've, been waiting for you to turn up
for the last four hours " There was a note
of superiority In his voice, which, strange
to say, Broderlck In no wise resented,
"Well," blurted out the politician, "what
are you going to do about It?"
"What are we going to do about it?"
asked tho lawyer In turn.
"I can handlo tho pollrfe," Broderlck
affirmed.
"That goes without saying: but we're
up against comejhlng more than the police."
"If Tom Martin or Sam Apgar was the
prosecutor now," walled Broderlck, "we'd
have no trouble. They used to come toml
regularly for .Instructions "
"But," he protested, "Martin Isn't prose
cutor, neither Is Apgar. Murgatroyd Is
prosecutor, and "
"Confound tho mnn!" Interrupted Brod
erlck. "Ho's so straight that he leans over
backward. It was he who said six weeks
ago that tho Tweedale sutcldo was the Inst

Inside of Cradlebaugh's It would bo good
by to Cradlebaugh's. And now there's this
blamed murder."
Thorne looked Broderlclc ln the eye for
a moment and asked:
"Do you know that murder happened in
side of Cradlebaugh's?"
"No : but I'm satisfied It did "
"Have you talked to Pemmlcan?"
Broderlck stared In surprise.
''Noj'but haven't you?"
Thorne shook his head.
"You forget that I waited here for you.
Now that you're here, my Idea Is to see
Pemmlcan nnd get the facts."
"The captain of the Precinct will
bo there." exnlalned Broderlck. "He under
stands that you're counsel for Cradlebaugh's,
see?
"Come on," repeated Thome; "we'll go
and see Pemmlcan "
Broderlck remained seated. Presently he
said hesitatingly:
"Just a second, counselor I wish you'd
draw a check for five for me."
"Dollars?"
"No."
"Hundreds?"
"No."
"Five thousand !" Thorne whistled. "Com
ing It Just a bit strong, Broderlck.
Broderlck vigorously shook his head.
"Now, look here, Thorne, I've got no
comp'lalnt to make of you, and you've got
no complaint to make of me. You've paid
me well, but you've had blamed good re
turns for lt,thaven't you? Come now!"
"Yes," admitted Thorne. "But "
"No buts." Interrupted Broderlck. 'This
fs a crisis."
Thorno drew down the corners of his
mouth.
"Do you think that I don't know it's a
crisis?" He went back to his desk, drew
forth a check book and wrote a check. Fe
foro passing It over to Broderlck. he looked
him squarely In tho eye and added:
"Peter, I've always paid you by check
and taken your receipt."
"Sure !" returned Broderlck. "I'm no
ofhceholdcr. You could publish It In the
newspapers ; nobody could find fault"
'The point Is," continued Thorne, re
ferring to a memorandum, "that I've passed
over to you n sight of money,"
"And you got a sight of Influence In re
turn," retorted Broderlck.
Thorne passed over the J5000 check,
seized Broderlck by the arm, marched him
out, then he began to relieve his mind.
"Broderlck, I want more Influence. I've
got a pet scheme, a great ambition that Is
overweening, overwhelming. It won't .down;
It owns me body and soul." He paused a
moment before Anally coming to the point
"I want some day to sit In the Senate of
the United States."
' "Phew"' whistled Broderlck. "Nofhlng

"I shall want every lota of your In
