THE UNMASKING
By MARGARET BASS.
T'HE ball room w*« ablaio_H'ltli
| lights, and the
1 “Valse Bteue pulsated through
,, r a, the danger. In their cloaks
and masks moved rhythmically along.
A man In plain evening dress, but
masked, was leaning against one of
the doorways, an unmistakable sneer
curving his pale, thin UPJ- .
"Pah!" he muttered. ’What a farce
“as he spoke he heard the sudden
rustle of silken draperies near him.
and. looking round, observed a blue
domino sitting alone In a small palm*
•heltered alcove. He hesitated an in
stant. then, with an almost Impercep
tible "hrug of his shoulders, he moved
t0 "Yoit are alone for the moment?*
he said. "And I also. Have I your
permission?" with a gesture toward a
chair near by.
The blue domino started violently
and turned her head away without re-
ply. The man smiled disagreeably.
“A thousand pardons!" he said. I
see I have transgressed even the privi
leges of a ball masque”
The blue domino turned toward mm
•lain, the red mouth curved, and
small white teeth dashed In a brilliant
•mile. .
"Don't go." eh. said. ‘ Stay and
•muse me. I am—bored.”
"This sort of show Is somewhat bor
ing. Is It not?" he said. "Half the
E leasure of a dance to me lies In what
entirely lacking tonight—until the
time comes to unmask,” and he glanced
at her veiled face and shrouded Ag
ora.
•And yet—Is there not a fascination
In the unknown?" she queried.
“Most emphatically—particularly as
applied to women. When one thor
oughly knows a woman she—ceases to
be fascinating.” *
The sneer In his voice was palpa
ble.
“You have found It soT* she ven
tured
"I have found It so." I
There was a moment's silence.
Then— ,
"I ntn sorry,” she said, simply, with
an odd little break In her voice. The
man started.
"Good heavens!" broke from his lips.
"IVhat is tt?‘ asked the domino.
“What Is the matter?"
The man regarded her narrowly for
an Instant, then he shrugved his shout
ders and relapsed Into his former man
ner.
"You reminded me of someone—
that Is all."
"Oh. we women are all much of a
muchness,” she said.
"I am sorry l can not contradict
l'"u." he answered drily, "and the less
•aid as to the quality of that muchness
the better."
A little laugh rippled from the blue
domino's lips.
“• regret you have so poor an opinion
w my sex,” she murmured.
There Is no effect without a cause,
t»me the sharp retort.
"And how did I remind you of—the

That little break In your < voice,"
muttered the man. "It was Just like

MAIER & BERKELE
"It la forced upon us by circum
stances.” There was a touch of despair
in her voice.
"We live—In a bal masque.”
The man looked at her keenly.
“And does it never strike twelve—do
you never unmask?”
She leaned forward and laid a slim
gloved hand on his arm. A faint sug
gestion of carnations came to him from
her proximity, ahd memory awoke
painfully once more.
"Woman never unmasks until the
hour has come, and sometimes—some
times the man has grown tired of wait
ing by then, and when she unmasks she
is alone.”
"I should like to tell you a story*
said the man. "Do you care to hear It?”
"Tell me,” she answered.
A good many yeara ago there was n
certain man who had but little belief In
women—be had been tricked once, and
though the wound healed It left a scar.
It woa some time after that first dis
illusionment that another woman came
In .his way who seemed as honest and
true as the other had been deceitful.
The man did not trust the second worn,
an quite at once, but gradually as their
acquaintance ripened and the woman
answered magnificently to all the hun
dred and one little tests of truth occa
sion offers he lafd aside his shield of
suspicion and trusted her. She was
very charming—sometimes he thought
she cared, but she was so whimsical, *o
cold, so passionate, each by turn, that
he could never be quite sure. She
never raised the mask—the miserable
mask you women wear. At last tho
man devised a test—a final test on
which he staked his all. He told her—
not circumstantially, but-by Inference,
you understand—about the first wom
an; how he had cared for her and she
had fooled him, and he Implied that he
'cared still.'" He hesitated a moment,
then added extlnuatlngly: "That was
the only lie of which he was ever guilty
toward her.”
The blue domino bent forward, her
lips parted, her breathing quick and
broken.
“Well?” she said. "Well?”
"It was not well. The woman never
flinched, her face never changed. She
was silent a little while, and then-
then she sympathized with him! Del
icately. believe me; only a gesture and
a half-spoken sentence—nothing trite
or banal. But It was sympathy. No
acting could have compassed that. And
then the man knew—the mask was off
at last—she did not love him.”
He leaned back and looked at bis
companion.
"That Is all," he said. "I dare »ay
It’s a common enough atory.” I
The blue domino gave a little laugh
—or was It a sob?
"I dare say It Is,” she said. ' Men
generally do fall to see anything that
Ilea below the surface.”
"There hangs a tale to that re
mark?” queried the man; "May iTiavc
It In exchange for mine? We are
strangers—'Ships that pass In the
night.' I will promise to go before-
before It Is time to unmask."
•1 will tell you. There was once a
woman who, although many men loved
her, had never yet felt love. Men said
ehe was as cold as Ice, but she herself
knew better—knew that there was a
great love awaiting In her heart for
the destined man—when he should
come. He 1 came at last. Just at the
very first 'he seemed no more to her
than any other, though soon he made
It evident that he cared for her. But
gradually a something strange and new
possessed her. and out of it there grew
an unrest, a terrible fear that perhaps
he did not care, perhaps he was only
flirting. He had that reputation. 80
she held the mask before her face, and
when It slipped ever so little she has
tened to replace It. For love hod come
to her at laat. the love that gives ev
erything and demands in return all—
0r ”Esth*r?" broke in recognition from-
the man beside her. „
"Hush,” she said, "you must listen.
One day the man came to her and
told her In fragments the story of hlm-
self—and another woman, a woman
who had deceived him. and yet evi
dently one whom he still loved. And
then, she knew that for her It was all
ended, and the only thing remaining
was to cover her retreat. She did It—
we women of the world are well
trained—and neither by word nor look
did she betray her secret."
"And ** forwards?"

DEATH OF MRS. BASS
SHOCK TO CHATTANOOGA.
Special to The Georgian.
Chattanooga, Tenn., May 17.—The
tragic death of Mbs. W. J. Bass yester
day ihocked the best people of Chat

occurred recently. Being a member of
one of the oldest families In the etate,
wife of a leading manufacturer and an
active eoclety woman, Mrs. Bass was
generally known and very popular. A
number of large society affairs sched
uled for the next few days have been
abandoned.

Defense Asks That
Gov. Gooding Be
Examined.
Boise, Idaho, May ' 17.—Harry' Or
chard's reception to newspaper corre
spondents yesterday was the cause of
delaying proceedings In the Haywood
trial this morning. Publication In the
local papers of Orchard's talk and
Gooding's Interview provoked Judge
Wood and he began summary Inquiry
Into yesterday'a proceeding*. Haywood
and the Jurors were not In court, Judge
Wood having ordered that nothing
should be done until Governor Gooding
and Warden Whitney's actions are con
sidered. All talesmen were excused and
the court asked the attorneys what they
had to say.
Attorney Richardson, for the defense.
ild the purpose of exhibiting Orchard
was to rehabilitate him in the publle's
opinion, and for a dastardly outrage on
the defense. It said It was patent for
a year that the governor did not Intend
to permit a fair trial tor the defendants
and this move emphasised that motive.
Clarence Darrow said that an effort
to give Orchard credence came from
tha desire to Influence the Jurors who
are yet to be examined. He gives out a
maudlin Interview on religion. The
statement that he puts hi* neck In the
halter without promise of reward le
manufactured. Judge Wood thereupon
ordered the sheriff to telephone for the
country prosecuting attorney and Dar
row resumed his statement, saying It
might be that this episode would be the
cause of delaying the trial.
"1 think the governor should be «tted
Into tho court and examined and If this
matter calls for punishment he should
be punished. Warden Whitney should
be called In.” said he.

TAINTED MONEY.

I have been requested to gtv* toy humble
opinion upon the mneh*ta!kcd-of subject of
“Tainted Money."
To begin with, It will readily be aeeu
that, literally speaking, there Is no aueh
and that, morally speaking, I am every bit
as had ns he is. ,

but in the ores of the moral law 1 am n

that presents Itself—If we are prepared to
take such ground, then the talk about
tainted money la all nonsense, nnd we can
cuaslon that Is now going on.
Money of and within Itself Is neither
good uor bad, and, so far as the money
part of It goes, one dollar, If It only be n
dollar, Is quite as good as any other dollar.
The dollar that la robbed or stolen la, as
a dollar, fully equal, In every commercial
sense of the word, to the dollar that la
made honestly.
The "taint” la not In the money, but lu
the way the money l» made, and In this
sense there la plenty of tainted money In
the world.
But, to come to the gist of the matter, la
It wrong for any man or Institution, claim
