Hopkins. T the inspiring and beautiful musical setting, with Mrs. Hart ridge Whipp at the organ, is due additional credit for the impres live loveliness of the wedding. The rrlde was gowned In ivory white setin trimmed with exquisite lace and, the reil. cleverely and becom ingly arranged, and falling in graceful folds from a coronet of orange blossoms, was edged with fine handmade lace. The bouquet was a shower of orchids' and white roses mingled with white bouvar d;a. Miss Marian Heed, maid of honor, was- attired, in a smart frock of embroidered tulle over pink metal eloth and her bouquet was of pink roses. A deeper shade of pink was worn by the two bridesmaids. Miss Kuth Cushing and Miss Florence Knapp, who were gowned in satin and carried p.nn . roses, uaroara fierce, a dainty little miss in a French frock of white organdie and lace! with pink ribbons and bows, was the flower girl. Charles Lembke of Albuquerque, N. M. was best man and the ushers were William Simmons. Arthur Lee. Frank Davis, Edward C. Sammons, all of whom were overseas officers. "Mr. Hopkins was a captain in the 91st division and it was his pleasure to have a coterie of his brother offi cers as his attendants at the wed- iing. "The bridegroom is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and the bride, a popular Portland girl, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs., George Broughton, is a graduate of the University of Oregon, a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma. "The couple will live in Port land where Mr. Hopkins is in the bonding business. "After the church ceremony at which Dr. W. T.

And if she I so. Imbecile as not to. know. these things she Is better dead.. As it is I am risk ing my own neck just because she has eyes like Olga." She went to a trunk in th room, unlocked it. and took from it a coil of stout cord, a bit of wood and another object which made my heart leap with excite- m?nt. If the glimDse of It I had caught through my half-veiled eyes didn't dceive ms the thing was a small silencer uistol such as I had seen in Lillian's nmssion it seemed incredible that Mme. Ilofer would nut such a deadly little weapon in my power, but I long ago have learned that the evolution of the Teutonic mind. especially of the emotional, neu rotic, feminine type. . ar beyond the ordinary understanding. Fresh Hopes. She cams over to me. and with extraordinarily deft hands wound my wrists with cords and tid them together. She did the same to my ankles, and then, wrapping the piece of wood in cloth, she pried open my mouth and inserted the impromptu gag. tying th ends of the encircling cloth behind my neck. I gathered fresh hope from the multiplicity or cords she used, and the fact that tbe cords near est my wrist were comfortably loose.

"And ean I not give it to Er nest Just as well? What is the matter with you. Sophie?" His voice held menacing sus picion as he tnrned on her. "There is nothing the matter with me." she flared, "except that 1' will not have this murder you are planning on, yes, jyou can't deceive me. Otto, you are plan ning to put her out of the way in spite of what Ernest said. And while I don't care a pfenning what happens to the little pig. yet I do care what happens to my own neck.

I thought that I could almost work it loose by moving my head from side to side. , When Mme. Hofer bad finished she stepped backhand looked me over carefully. Then she gave a low laugh, in which I was sure I detected a note of malicious mischief. ; . "There!" she said triumphant ly. 'lf Otto cap detect anything wrong about those he is more clever than I take him for. Now for t Irs other." She bent over me. opened my coat, which, fortunately, I had slipped on when I had my service moved to the veranda, and felt around the lining until she found an inside, pocket. i Laying Strange Plans. "li thought there- would be one in this mate of coat." she mut tered, and I mad? a mental note of the minute knowledge of triv ial facts tbe remark betokened. Into tbe pocket 'she thruRt the tiny pistol, arranged the loose told of the coat so they con cealed the form of the pislol. and fastened thi coat again. "So-o!" she exclaimed. "Now I think we are ready for even Ot to's ey?s. " He is very wise,' but So pair Hofer ha wriggled nt of too many bonds not to be able to match nlm." I felt a little tingle of excitement- Evidently this woman, whom I had known only as the efficient, somewhat stolid haus frau of the Inn. had a history and a personality worth one's study. She walked toward the door, but before she turned the key she raised her hands above her bead wearily. "Ah' Olgd liebchen:" she mur- mnred. "I do this for you." She went down stairs, locking tbe door after her. and I relaxed the heavy breathing, for I knew that soon I must undergo the or deal i of Otto's searching eyes. Mme. Hofer's clever scheme was perfectly plain to me. She meant to exhibit ma bound and gagged for Otto's inspection. Then. If I succeeded in getting Iooka and escaping she would have the indisputable evidence of his approval of her work. running footsteps "I am not afraid of you," she shrilled from the doorway. "And if you don't want me to leave this door unlocked you go downstairs first. I am going to give this key to Ernest myself. Oh, Er nest!" she called loudly, as if she had Just caught sight of th a ferret-faced youth. Whether her call was a riiBe or not 1 didn't know, and I am sure Otto shared my uncertainty. But it made hlra obey her, and I heard him swearing sullenly as he made his way to the door and down the stairs past her. Then Mme. Hofer hurried noiselessly to my side, thrust something cold and bard down my neck, and went out of the room. arain locking the door behind her "It is a good thing for me this lock Is an ordinary one." she so liloquized.

Hofer's passionate declaration that she would not tie ma up "like a calf for the butcher" was of short duration. For when the ebullition of emotion cau?d by ray real or fancied resemblance to some one she had known : and loved had passed her natural craftiness, and very real fear of her associates returned. "After all. I am a fool." she so liloquized. "The. woman Is noth ing to me, and their hands will be heavy."

I knew that my fate had been set tled. Whatever decision she had arrived at was unalterable. "I shall have to tie her up. that is certain.,' she muttered, "but I'll give her what those cursed English call a "sporting chance. The sound xf footst?ps on the stairs, stealthy, furtive, even though there was no danger of their being overheard, warned me , that I must resume my stertorous breathing and prepare to face Otto's critical inspection of the bonds and gag Mme. Hofer had put upoa me. It was a comparatively easj task for me now, for I was no longer hopeless, sick with terror as I had been when I was carried upstairs, and dumped into thid room to wait for tbe arrival of the man with tbe scarred hand. -'' My heart was warm with grati tude, to that Strang wonan.
