EVERETT, Dec 1&-Guilty of
murder in the first degree was the
verdict of the jury in the Quinn case,
returned this morning after three
TOtct had been taken. Quinn received
the news with as little concern as if
it had been a mere spectator, but
Mrs. Bert Mason, his sister, became
hysterical and created a scene in the
corridor of the court house. Quinn
said he expected a second degree
verdict During the entire trial he
displayed no emotion except to be
come angry under cross examination.

reply X supposed that you were lost In
the social whirl and did not care to
waste time la writing when I waa so
far away." ,.
Too should havr knnwn ma better
than that" The words were simple,
but the look accompanying them waa
eloquent It seemed to tell Chris that
only through faint heartedness had ha
failed to win bis fair lady and that
there still might be a chance.
"It seems to be a muddle all around,"
be said. "The firm were rather angry
at my going, though I gave them two
weeks' notice, and they knew that I
was bettering myself."
"The chances are that they did not
forward your letter to me and did not
mall my letter to yon. I remember
that I dropped It Into the office mall
box. The cashier was a petty sort of
person. This may have been one of
his revenges."
The many changes which bad come
to both since their rartlng furnished a
theme for conversation, and the train
was pulling into the terminal at Jersey
City before it was exhausted.
Ernltlngly Chris felt that the misun
derstanding waa all cleared up, and be
told himself that It would not be bis
fault If Fraueea did not return home
an engaged girl.
"Will your friends be here to meet
yon?" he asked as the porter took their
hand bags.
"I told them not to bother," explain
ed Frances. "Bessie's mother la an In
valid, and Bess works downtown some
where. I'll Just take a cab to the
! house. It's uptown. The address Is In
my grip. I always carry everything
In my grip. Then I have only one thing
to watch Instead of a valise and a
purse and perhaps a couple of bun
dles." "That's a sensible thing," cried Chris
admiringly. "Only you mustn't lose
your valise."
"I should say not" agreed Frances
laughingly. "I should find myself with
out money and, worse yet, without
even Bess' address, since she had to
move last week because their old bouse
was torn down."
"I'll look out for the valise," prom
ised Chris as he helped her down the
steps of the Pullman. "Better walk be
hind me and let me force the way. I'm
more used to New York crowds," he
explained, with the pride of a new rest
dent Now, at Jersey City the concourse
opens on three ferry slips, all leading
to various parta of Manhattan. Chris
headed for the downtown ferry, which
would bring them near the subway,
and not until the boat was reached did
be turn to see if the girl was still fol
lowing. The gates were closed behind him
and the boat was slowly passing out of
the slip when be made the discovery
that Frances had not followed his in
structions. She was not in the tall of the crowd
that had been hurried nboflrd by Impa
tient gatemen, nor did a eareful search
of the boat reveal her, and Chris' hope
that she might have been swept aboard
by the other gangway was dashed.
lie made the return trip on the same
boat, railing at the delay, and after a
hurried scrutiny of the concourse de-
tided that she must have taken the
jpper ferry to Twenty third atreet
A boat wn about to start, and he
rushed ou board, the pcwpIrutUm
breaming fvtuu LU face, lie Kill car
rtcd Frances' yalUe nud lila own heavy
mlt case. Prauce could not leave any
ferry house without the valine, for It
rotiulued her inmioy ntul her friend's
tddress. She could liot apply to the
M addresa to Mud out where her
hostes bad moved, because the house
had been turu down, She must wait
tor him.
He dashed through the exit and
through the waiting room, searching
both floors, but there was no truce of
the girl, tie waa about to go to the
street and qmftlon the carriage agent
when the doorman, who bad watched
his actions curiously, came up.
"Are you the chap that lost a ladyV
tu demanded. "If you are, I told her
;o go back to the Jersey aide and wait
for you. She followed a man she
thought was you and got on the wrong
boat"
' Chris prwaed a coin Into the mau's
baud ami sprinted down the slip Just
is the boat was pulling out. lie bare
ly managed to leap aboard before the
gates were closed, aud he atood on the
forward deck to cool off,
Wheu the bout should muke the Jcr
ey shore this worry would be at nu
ud. So he regarded the pauoraina of
river life complacently. i
He was the first pawwnger off the
boat aud out ou to the eoucourse, but
uetther un the concourse nor In the
waiting room could he Qud her, though
he searched both. She must have
boarded the Cortlandt street ferry, so
for a second time be made for tbe slip,
matching the same boat that bad car
ried bliu acroaa before. One of the
leek hands regarded bltn curiously r.i
he passed.
"A tut you the fellow what l-ald bN
fare to me to stay on the lwtt a cnl
it trips ago?" be demauded.
Chris nodded, and the uiau grinned.
'1 thought you was," he coutluued.
"There wa a lady dowu here liwkli';:
!br you this lat, trip. I reuieiubeiv.1
roa went rlpht back, and I sent her on
to Twenty-third street. She didn't
have the price of her fare," he added
aieanlngly, and apiln the grateful
'.""hrlH paa.'M'd out a coin.
"Funny you didn't see her," mused
che man m be llped the money into
his pocket. "She waa on tbe boat
when we luuded. I told her to take a
look around and then make for the
Twenty-third street slip. .
"I was looking In the waiting room
for her." explained Chris. "I gness
It'll be all rieht now." .
But things were far from all right.
When Cbrls leaped from tbe boat at
the uptown landing, the doorman who
had spokeu to him before laughed
loudly as be caught sight of the pant
ing and perspiring traveler.
I told yoa to wait on the Jerwy
dde," be cried. "The girl came back.
and I told her you were down there
waiting. Tbe man on one of the Cort
landt street boats sent her up here
while I was sending you back. I told
her to sit there In the shed this thue
for an hour and I'd find you some
how. Better stay on this bont. The
fare's 3 cents. Tou owe a ticket for
her too. She didn't have any money."
Chris passed over a dollar. "Keep
the change; It's worth It" be said, and
he went back on the boat
Fifteen minutes ; later the crowd
wired off the boat In a rush for the
trains, and Cbrls went with the tide of
humanity until It separated toward the
various gates.
As he turned to search the seats a
pair of soft arms went about his neok.
and he looked clown into Frances'
crimson face. ,
"I didn't mean to do that," she cried,
but I wiih so afraid I'd lose you again
if I didn't grub tight bold of you."
"I like It," di-lared Chris. "I thought
I never slionld llnd yon."
"That's the way it seemed to me,"
die roufessed. "I never was so glad to
we any one In my life. A fat woman
came In between us, and when I look
ed around to find you there were two
men who looked so like yon that I
wasn't certitln which was really you.
They were both going toward the up
town boat, and I followed them."
Chris transferred the valise to tbe
band that carried his suit case, and
with the other he (rrnsped her arm.
"I'm not going to lose you this time,"
he announred. "I don't want ever to ,
lose you again, Fanny. May I keep
vou always?"
What be saw In ber eyes caused bltn
t6 lean over and kiss ber.
"Everybody kisses- everybody else at
(he railroad station," be explained as
he led the way to the boat "And they
haven't half my excuse. I'-ve found
pou twice Inside of two hours."
The Old Time Shawl.
The shawl was originally not a wo
man's garment exclusively, for the
3cotch blghlnnder baa bis tartan plaid,
and the men of northern Italy still
wear a cloak which Is very little more
than a shawl. There can be no ques
tion that the shawl Is more useful and
more picturesque as an article of attire
ban the close fitting coats both men
nd women now wear. The shawl
;ould In case of emergency be used to
protect two persons or tJ wrap a child
in or as an extra bed covering, itx
fashion d'd not change every three
months, and it could be used and
passed down in the family nntll It was
worn out. Nowadays the only time
when such articles nre used Is when
people are making an ocean trip or
traveling In Europe. "Traveling rugs,"
which are nothing more or less than
men's heavy shawls, are extremely
English, and for travelers they are
;onsldered very proper and desirable,
but outside of a steamer, train or car
riage no one who cares for what peo
ple will say would be seen with one.
