Monroe settled back in hto office chair, Idly staring at th« hands of the big clock. He had gone over the books for the first time in a week, had listened to Pat Grady's story of the fracas that had come so near end ing fatally. And. as the old man's eyes closed, slowly, very slowly his mind traveled from the fields to his home In Los Angeles. A faint smile hovered about his lips ns he thought of his petted daughter, of the fearful consequences that might have occurred from her remissness in writing concerning the food supply out here. It seemed incredible that such a slight, fragile little thing could be the storm center about which such things revolved. And yet he was dubious whether even when he told of the affair, when he described the dan ger her sweetheart haa been in on account of it, when he pointed out to her the place in the roof where the bullet had lodged—he doubted whether even such a tale "would be sufficient to cure her of tht incorrigible habit she had of procrastination. The Wild In*ane Ruth and Sharp Battle Between Workmen and Defender!. Two—three—four o'clock and still the hands traveled along their way. At five o'clock, the old man rose and stared anxiously out upon the road that led past the great derrfeks of his oil fields. Here and there he could catch a glimpse of the men, great, powerful fellows, cheerfully exerting their muscles to the utmost, their minds centered wholy on the mess hall and the elaborate supper that had been prepared for them. Ira Monroe knew these men well. Among them had he been brought up. Through their midst had he shoved his great shoulders, commanding them to x his iron will. Every thought in their heads had been thoughts which he himself had felt; every move they made earned his sympathy. For he knew. Knew as only the self-made man can know the fellows he has passed, but still remains with. Five-thirty. He frowned heavily. Was it pos sible that Payne, knowing the serious ness of the matter, could permit any thing to delay him. Failure was a word which Ir# Monroe had never tolerated in himself any more tfian he telerated it in others. Results—that had always been the foundation stone upon which he builded. Tick —tock—tock—tick— strokes were pounding at his now. Like blows from a they were. He clamped his hands to his ears that he might shut out the sound of the clock. But Still I it hammered—hammered relentlessly, : remorselessly away. And he knew that 1 there icould be no stoping of it. Five-forty-flve. He shrugged his giant shoulders and 1 moved out along the road for some sign of the motor. Not even a dust cloud rose above the shimmering heat waves that danced along the way to the city in the distance. He felt an j Irresistible desire to look at his watch, although he knew what tale It ■would tell. Nervously loking about him he saw the men slacking in their labors. One fellow was tossing a coat over his shoulders and glancing instinctively to ward the little shack from which the whistle would sound—the whistle call ing them to a supper that would not be prepared. He hustled toward the mess shack. Something must be done but for the life of him he could not imagine what It would be. Supper was what the men wanted and supper was what they Intended having. He had sent his superintendent, the man he trusted sufficiently not only to put his busi ness in his hands but also the happi ness of his daughter. And his super intendent had failed him. He joined Pat Grady in the mess hall. Silently the two men looked about them. Tables, chairs, crockery, food remained as it had been after the mutiny at the dinner table. Even the stench of the mess still hovered over the hall. He threw out his hands in a wide gesture of rage and helplessness. "Hell t' pay and then some," mut tered the foreman. Monroe started a nod but checked It, throwing up his head like a runaway horse as the shrill scream of the whis tle pierced his ears. Loud, shrieking, fiendish was the sound. He did not know what it might mean. There was no way of tel ling that. Of consequences he cared little compared to the broken promise to his men. Already they were rushing toward this very place. And he had promised that they would find the food there which they were entitled to, in stead of which —this mess. Before he had time to even talk the situation over, to reach any conclu sion, a burly form hurtled in the door way, followed by another, another, and then another. Monroe met the star tled, incredulous eyes of the workmen. Then he lowered his own. "Well, I'm damm—" He lifted his head quickly at the threat in the angry voice. If the men were in this mood already, then, under full headway, there was no telling to what extent their rage would take them. He lifted his hand, his power ful shoulders lunged forward. • "Men. I'm sorry," he said, simply. "You know I sent the superintendent to town to remedy this condition. I'm going to the phone now and see what can be done." The growl that went up showed that his declaration had far from mollified. He flushed darkly, his Iron jaw creep ing out. I It's the first time I've ever had to to you men," he snapped. '"l'm going to do "my best for you now. I said I'm sorry and I'll phone the city immediately. Now, you can take it or get your time. That's all." Without a side glance he shouldered his way through and stamped angrily Into the office, snatching the receiver from the hook. Swiftly he clicked, his powerful finger gripping and un gripping over the little bit of iron that spelt ao much to him. A step sounded from the door. He turned to meet the eyes of his foreman, then shrugged his shoulders. < CONTINUED TOMORROW.) 0 THURSDAY EVENING, m_( ' Draperies doiu, 29? formerly Gloves 2nd •< r ° r fc _ ST"" Handkerchiefs:; II A wide.

Always absorbingly Interesting when acted upon the stage. "The Sporting Duchess" is doubly gripping on the screen because of the added features that are Impossible of reproduction In an ordinary theater. One of these is a thrilling horse race.

HARRISBURG L£S&& TELEGRAPH STATE BALANCE IS ; DUE FDR A TUMBLE Heavy Demands Causing It to Show Slump and School Pay- j ments May Be Delayed Owing to the establishment of the State fire insurance fund and the special fund for revenue from hunters' licenses which must be used for game | propagation and the heavy drafts made on Inactive depositories for I money to pay charitable and other ] j State appropriations, the chances are | that the State's general balance will I be lower on July 31 than it has been in years. This will probably have the effect of preventing any extensive pay ment of the State school appropriation which is due at present and which the Department of Public Instruction is prepared to start when the Auditor General gives the word. In the last few days inactive de positories have been called upon to turn over to the general fund more than $700,000. About ten days ago an equal amount was called from the same depositories, chiefly for hospitals. State financial authorities do not look for much change until August or September, when the State's big source of revenue, corporation taxes, commences to yield money. If these settlements are not made so<fn it will mean late payments to the school dis tricts. The balance was down to a low fig ure on June 30 and the payments by the State have been exceeding the ln ,come right along for two weeks.

The vessel Is not equipped with wireless and Captain Moore knew nothing of efforts to notify him of the supposed danger until the ship was boarded ty a pilot off Cape Henry. A thorough search then disclosed no ex plosives. The Howth Head will take on coal here and continue to Dublin and Bel fast. She has a general merchandise cargo. Fears for the vessel's safety were aroused by the receipt of a letter by a New Orleans newspaper In which notice was given to watch for reports of the Howth Head and also the Brit ish steamer Baron Napier, whifeh left New Orleans with mules for England. The N»pier has reported by wireless that a search showed no bombs aboard. |M W iS3J \GderbiltHotel I THIRTY FOURTH STREET AT PARK AVENUE J\IEV/y6RK yfnJioiel Designed, j ! to JfppeaCto iAe GonservZtive !
