Valuable Old Books to Enrich World as Result of Constantinople's Fall j I.ondon, (Correspondence of The.] Associated Press). Antiquarians (and historians are now to have for I the first time since the Turks took i possession of Constantinople, the op ! portunity for making a thorough in vestigation of the literary treasures | stored away in the great libraries j there. i j The contents of the bookshelves of I the St. Sophia and Palace libraries are known, but in the cellars under I the Palace library there are many • manuscripts in Arabic, Greek, Latin i and Eastern languages. These man -1 uscrlpts are in hopeless confusion I and no person with special aptitude I for research work has been permit ■ ted to examine, them in recent years. | About thirty years ago a German dragoman obtained permission from ! the Sultan to spend a week in those ! cellars. In that time he was able to j make only a superficial examination .I of the manuscripts, but his research, .-•hort as it was, revealed many books I iti Greek and Arabic of great value. ; Among the discoveries he reported I were the lost books of Livy, the : great Roman historian. I Among celebrated British scholars who are planning to go to Constan tinople to delve among the long-hid den. manuscripts is Sir Edwin Pears, the historian, who has spent many years in Constantinople. Sir Edwin told The Associated Press correspon dent that at least six months would be required for the investigation. He does not think the libraries have been damaged by the Turks, who, he says, are utterly indifferent to their value. His only fear is that the manuscripts will be found in a sad state as a result of neglect. Senator Leiby Asleep or Not in Sympathy With President's Policies Senator Leiby was either .caught napping last night or he does not favor the attitude President Wilson is taking with respect to the claims qf Italy at the peace table. Senator Vare, of Philadelphia, in troduced a long series of resolutions highly recommending the claims of the Italians to the territory which they are seeking under the secret treaty of London along the Adriatic. He asked immediate consideration of the resolutions. This required unanimous consent and as Lieuten ant Governor Beidleman, presiding, asked the Senate if this would be granted, he naturally looked toward Senator Leiby, expecting the Perry county Democrat to come to the res cue of the President by at least hold ing up the anti-Wilson resolutions. But none was forthcoming and the Senate immediately gave its approv al with a unanimous vote and they went to the House. Senator Leslie last evening intro duced a bill changing the fall pri mary back to the third Tuesday in stead of the third Wednesday, as amended last session.

HABJRISBURCf TELEGRAPH THE HEART BREAKER A REAL AMERICAN LOVE STORY By VIRGINIA TEHHUNIB VAN DIJ WATCH CHAPTER LXVI. [Copyright 1919, Star Company.] On Tuesday morning, as Honora Brent was hurrying downtown. Ar thur Bruce appeared directly in her path. At a glance she noted his pale face and heavy eyes. "May I see you at luncheon time to-day?" he asked abruptly. "Why yes—perhaps so," she stam mered. He misinterpreted her indecision. "I feel like a brute." he said, "at crowding my troubles on you. while the memory of all you have done for my mother and me is still fresh in my mind. But there are several things 1 want to explain to you. If you could lunch with me I would be very grateful. I know I am a nuis ance." "You are nothing of the kind!" she contradicted, flushing as she realized the misconstruction he had placed upon her confused manner, "I was only wondering if I could get ol'f at the same hour that you will be free. You see"—with an at tempt at a smile—"l am one under authority, I know, too, that your time is not your own just now." -"Business leaves me more than enough time," he remarked grimly. "I shall be in my office all the morning. Will you call me by tele phone when you are ready to go to luncheon? 1 will make the hour and place suit your convenience." She promised and hurried to her work, her heart beating fast. Arthur Bruce walked leisurely and gloomily toward the building in which he and his father had strug gled so arduously to keep alive an enterprise that the war seemed to be killing. It was the first time that the son had appeared here since his father's death. He appreciated the silence that fell upon the outer room as he DAILY HINT ON FASHIONS [1 ®i^a| fa, | .„,„T I! zm i ijj i 1 A SMART SPORTS COSTUME Blouse 2822, Skirt 2818 Here is a very pleasing combina tion of novelty silk, for the skirt, and duvetyn, for the blouse.

"You will And it on Mr. 1 mean on your desk." Arthur went into the office that had been his father's, closed the door, sat down and opened the tele gram. This he read twice, then re ■ mained motionless for a long while. | gazing at the bare wall before him, ' a strange expression on his face. A Kindjr Employer At twelve o'clock Mr. Pearson I turned to Honora. ' This is a dull * morning." he remarked. "I'm go -1 ing to meet a friend and take him ito lunch. I do not know just when I will be back. Go out whenever i you please, and eat a good meal- — i and take plenty of time about it. j You don't look quite up to the mark | to-day." I She thanked him, and, when he had left the office, telephoned to j Arthur Bruce, explaining that she j was free whenever he was. Fifteen minutes later, when she ! stepped from the elevator into the ' great hall on the ground floor of the I building, Arthur was waiting for her. He smiled brightly, lifted his hat I and fell into step beside her. "Suppose we go over to the Har i land." he suggested. "It's a quiet. ' restful place w here we can talk in ' peace." I There was a strain of excitement iin his voice that caused her to re- I gard him curiously. ! "Something has happened." she i declared. "Something that has made I you look better than you did early I this morning." | "Wait until we are at the Harland ; before I try to talk," he evaded. When they were seated at a table , in a secluded cornor of the restau rant and Arthur had ordered the luncheon he leaned toward his com panion and spoke, his voice slightly unsteady. "You have been such a wonderful friend, Honora," he began, "that I want you to be the first person to hear what has happened. It is not an easy thing to tell, for it is rather tragic, I think. "You have known a little some thing of my father's affairs, and of how he wanted me to go into his business with him. I wasn't very OUCH! CORNS!

Then the war started and his health, which had been poor for several years, failed rapidly. "I wanted to enlist." he contin ued, flushing, yet meeting lier eyes honestly. "I had been at a military school and was an officer in our student battalion at college. When it looked as if war was a certainty I told father 1 wanted to go into it. "Then he told me things that made it impossible for me to leave him. There is no use of bothering you with technical details, but father had motgaged the credit of his firm, and' had put all his own money into a venture that would have made him a very rich man if the war had held off. But it didn't —and when the war came the whole scheme went up in smoke. Con ditions were such that it was almost impossible to pull through. Father thought it was impossible—for lie was not lip in some modern ideas. .That is what killed him." He paused, swallowing hard. "I gave up what I wanted to do." ihe continued after a moment. "I | worked harder than I had believed I could. As you know, we are con tractors and builders. No private concerns were doing any building. But the Government was, and I went at it along that line.
