MARK IN A TANTRUM
Hark, you'll kindly let me In,
commanded Mrs. Lodoly.
Her untidy bulk was planted out
side her son's door and her loud
Tolc held every Indication of au
thority. But she did not look u
though she expected to be obeyed.
.When the door remained contemp
tuously shut, she changed to a
whine.
"Mark, It's not talr of you to go
behavln' like this! It's not fair to
m and It's not fair to Baba. She'll
be hers directly last thing she Bald
to ma last night was that she'd be
round as usual. She'll talk about
Thursday, the weddln' and one thing
and another, and you can't expect
ma to be the one to tell her you've
postponed It again."
"Be quiet," requested Mark's
voice, so close to the key-hole that
he gasped, startled. "And go away."
She stood with her foolish mouth
gaping. Then her heart-beats slowed
and she made off down the stairs.
Not till she reached the bottom did
she reflect that It was beyond all
reason to be frightened. What was
Mark, a'(ter all, but her own child?
Ha ought to be ashamed
But she did not 'go up to that
closed door again.
She was pottering about In the 111
llt hall, muttering to herself, when
then was a .step on, the porch. She
lunged (drward, knocking the umbrella-stand
out of Its niche, and
opened the door to Barbara.
"How Is Mark?"
It was the nrst question asked by
anyone- who came, to Kings .Barn.
Invariably, Mrs. Lodely replied, In
the vernacular of her youth "Oh,
none so dusty I" To BsTbara Quentln,
however, she said It with a differ
ence. There was an evasion In JL

bands went motionless amongst the
fastenings of ber coat.
?My dear gel, I- haven't seen him
since, you have! After you'd gone
off with Farrell 'Armttage last night,
I found the door shut and you know
well enough- no power on earth'U
make Mark open a door If he don't
want toj And this mornln' he lay
low without so much as a cup of
cdttee and (tits afternoon 1 had to
run out to make excuses for htm
at tbe bank tfind do some shopping,

I was btcck he'd lacked himself fn

Barhara took Jior usual chair by
the flW Mrs. -Lodoly, astride the'
hearth, scrutinized her more closoly
than was her custom.
EarDara laid her neno suddonly
bock; against the ark;woodot hor
chair and closed bar eyes. There
were sucbtbadow under them (had
Mrs. Lddeiy's habitual laughter
twisted In her throat.
"Hen, I ajiy," as a thought struck
her "I believe I know what's get
tin you. It's about Mark goln' up
to Town with this young million
adre of ours and It's rotten for you,
ofocourse It Is. But you know If
Hark geta taken up by a realty
rich man, welj, It'll be the makln'
of him. You surely see that!"
"I see that," echoed BarbaVa. She
had not opened her eyea
"Topplii' i jfu to take It like
that!" breezed Mrs. Lodely. "Look
here, Baba, why don't you and he
get married before he goes to Town.
Must thing Thursday mornin'f"
"I can't, Judy."
"I've a shrewd notion Mark's
fixed up srmethln' of the sort with
Mr. Frere. Miss Hoop saw him coming
down Untfor Mallard larys. In a taxi,
extravagant yoitng devil!"
"I can't marry blm on Thursday."
Mrs. Lodely's Jerklfig movement
sent a vase slithering off a what
not "I've somethln' 1 want to tell
you," she said, "about you and Mark.
Somethln' to do with money."
"What monej, jffdyT"
On many and many a night when
her troubled thoughts had merged
Into troubled sleep, Mrs. Lodely had
dreamed that Barbara Quentln ro-

tuscd, at tbe last, to marry Mark.
In the dream there had followed a
sharp fear and then the decision to
speak. 'Babs, If you'll marry him,
there will be money. A lot of money.'
So familiar had tbe give and take of
the dream become that It had by Its
very familiarity betrayed ber.
Betrayed her; for, as Barbara's
eyes opened and fastened themselves
upon her, she grasped her mistake.
Barbara had not meant that she re
fused to merry Mark.
"What money, Judy?"
"My own m-money," she said, stuf
taring a little as sbe often did when
making a great effort to concentrate.
"It's precious little but I'm his
thlnkln' that it'd help you If Mark
bad It. Keep him In canvas and oils.
He's always borrowed as much ot it
as he could, anyway" her laugh
was rueful "best make It over to
blm entirely. Especially now we
know he's blown his Aunt Alice's
legacy."
"But what on earth do you pro-'
pose to live on yourself If you give'
your income to Mark?"
"I thought p'raps I could get a
job somewhere. Somethln' to do with
horses and dogs. Of course, 1 sup
pose to you I seem a pretty useless
old hulk " she was slipping into a
whine "but I've been told a dozen
times I'd have made a wonderful
kennel-woman. I've had It In mind a
long time. Qive me somethln' to do
when you've taken Mark away."
"I think you "lad Setter find your
Job before you part with your In
come," said Barbara languidly.
"Thanks for the advice!" Mrs.
Lodely retorted. "But, y'know, your
generation doesn't always get tho
laugh of us old 'una. I was out In the
world before you were In your cradle
and I don't need teachln' the alpha
bet just because you're scrapln' a
Uvln' as a dressmaker." She felt
her face grow red and made a last
clutch at her self-control. "However
there's no need tor us to quarrel.
I don't want to quarrel, I'm sure."
Sbe plumped herself by the hearth
and poked violently and unskil
fully at tbe lire. When she had re
duced a quite pleasant flame to a
thin plume ot smoke, Barbara took
the poker from her and coaxed
back life and light to the embers.
Her lips remained closed.
What's the matter with you?" ,
shot out Mrs. Lodely. "Sayln nothln'
like that Is Jolly .nearly sulkln',
Babs, and sulkln Is a trait 1 hate In
anyone. For pity's sake, don't you
start any moods Mark's are more
than enough for me!" Her confidence
In herself was by now re-established.
'"zn sorry It I was a bit hasty,"
aho apologised. "I'm upset myself by
all Mark's shllly-shallyln ."
If you haven't talked to Mark
since last, night," atjted Barbara,
atter a pause, "how do you know
that he 1b going to London on Thurs
day?" Mrs. Lodely found herself (meekly
explaining.
"Why, he Farroll Armltage
told me about it Just as you and bo
were gettfn' into his carl 1 thought
it was a bit odd of him"
"I see ... I think 1 hear Mark
moving about upstairs."
I don't. . . . didn't you like our
young mUHonalro, Babs?"
Don't you think It Is rather of
fensive porpotually to rotor to him
In that war?"
"Well, I'm dashedl"
Barbara Bad spuing to her feet

pushed vlojently back, njlss the
rickety) chlca cabinet behind her.
The wild-rose flush had gone from
her cheeks. She looked white; wild,
reckless, at bay. . , . She walked un
steadily to 'jft window and peered
out between Ike heavy, dusty cur
tains.
I didn't get any sleep last:
night," ahe said. "I'm sorry, Judy1
dear. I've worked? all day. I'mlred
out."
Mrs. Lodely took a long breath.
This was more like It.
She turned in her chair.
'What did you do with the mil
with Farreb Armltage?" she asked.
The words came to Barbara
through such a fog ot fatigue and
Ulsmay that they cauged her no em-

The Calllcotte statement admitted
that he first sent his "confession" In
fiction form to an eastern publica
tion but contended It was the truth
with the exception of some substitu
tion of names. It was stated the fic
tion work was examined by a$ editor
of the Portland Oregonlan, which
published the "confession" and that
an Oregonlan editor asked him out
right If one of the substituted names
did not represent himself, which he
said was the case.
The Calllcotte statement asserted
Goff was "one of Mooney's framers
and wholly disqualified to conduct a
fair and Impartial Investigation"; con
stituted little more than a personal
attack upon the mountaineer and
"excluded statement of the authen
ticity of my confession by responsible
Individuals, newspapers, periodicals,
and makes no mention whatever of
such significant corroborative testi
mony as that of my residence at the
H. T. Crlsman home, the testimony
of Officer Gatldy and the pictures I
took (allegedly of the scene of the
blast) the day following the explo
sion." Calllcotte was living with
