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.

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."

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 tanooga more than anything that Ima 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. Mrs. Basa and a friend, Mrs. R. \V.

The man wrenched off his mask. "By Heaven! You shall not unmask alone—this time.” Ills voice shook. The fringed mask she was wearing fell unheeded to the ground, the blue hood slipped back, and tbs face of the woman he loved,' and who loved him,' lay at last beneath his lips. 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. AMERICAN COMPANY BUYS BUTTER PLANT. TAINTED MONEY. 0 0 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. , . Leaally I may be able to clear my skirts, but in the ores of the moral law 1 am n criminal, guilty of qalng the money which I know haa been wrongly taken from oth* era. Of coarse If we are ready to aay that thine nm tnlnto.l mnnev In th* monso In I* I 10 thing as a litoral law, tliat JJJJJL af. firm »ti* hi!?*!!

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 Ing to bf^honeat and rsspectable, to accept, na a means of farthering lt« work, money that was wrongfully made?

If the only trinity worth thinking about Is Selfishness, Fraud and Force; If there are no such things In the world as Truth, Honor, Humanity nnd Justlre, then tbe money that la made by villainous methods, by lying and deealt, by"oppression and cru elty, ar the expense of the tear* and groani nnd blood of rollllous of our fellow*human beings.
