CHAPTER VI.—Continued.
I turned to stand face to face with
the girl in the red tam-o'-shanter.
"1 beg your pardon," 1 said, stepping
away from the canoe.
She did not wear the covert coat of
the morning, but a i":nl knit jacket, but-
toned tight about her. She was young
with every emphasis of youth. A pair
of dark blue eyes examined me with
good-humored curiosity. She was on
good terms with the sun—I rejoiced in
the brown of her cheeks, so eloquent
of companionship with the outdoor
world—a certificate indeed of the fa-
vor of Heaven. Show me, in October,
a girl with a face of tan, whose hands
have plied a paddle or driven a golf-
ball or cast a fly beneath the bhi3
arches of summer, and I will suffer
her scorn in joy. She may vote me
dull and refute my wisest word with
laughter, for hers are the privileges of
the sisterhood of Diana; and that soft
bronze, those daring fugitive freckles
beneath her eyes, link her to times
when Pan whistled upon his reed and
all the days were long.
Her rubber-soled outing shoes had
made possible her silent approach, and
she enjoyed, I was sure, my discom-
fiture at being taken unawares.
1 had snatched off my cap and stood
waiting beside the canoe, feeling, I
must admit, a trifle guilty at being
caught In the unwarrantable inspection
of another person's property—particu-
larly a person so wholly pleasing to
the eye.
"I believe—I believe that is my pad-
dle," she said, a little timidly I thought,
and yet v.-:t'« definiteness.
1 looked down and found to my an-
noyance that I held her paddle in my
hand,—was in fact leaning upon it
with a cool air of proprietorship.
"Again, I beg your pardon," I said.
"I hadn't expected—"
She eyed me calmly, with the stare
of the child that arrives at a drawing-
room door by mistake and scrutinizes
the guests without awe. I didn't know
what I had expected or had not expect-
ed, and she manifested no intention of
helping me to explain. Her short skirt
suggested 15 or 16—not more—and
such being the case there was no rea-
son why I should not be master of the
situation. As I fumbled my pipe the
hot coals of tobacco nurned my hand
and I cast the thing from me.
She laughed a little, then caught
herself and gravely watched the pipe
bound from the dock into the water.
"Too bad!" she said, her eyes upon
It; "but if you hurry you may get it
before it floats awa>."
"Thank you for the suggestion," I
said. But I did not relish the idea of
kneeling on the dock to fish for a pipe
before a strange school girl who was,
1 felt sure, anxious to laUj-'n at me.
She took a step toward the line by
which her boat was fastened.
"Allow me."
"If you think you can,—safely,'" she
said; and the laughter that lurked In
her eyes annoyed me.
"The feminine knot ts designed for ,
the confusion of man." I observed,
twitching vainly at the rope, which |
was tied securely in unfamiliar loops.
She was singularly unresponsive.
The thought that she was probably
laughing at my clumsiness did not
make my fingers more nimble.
"The nautical instructor at St.
Agatha's is undoubtedly a woman.
This knot must come in the post-grad-
uate course. But my gallantry is
equal, I trust, to your patience."
The maid in the red tam-o'-shanter
continued silent. The wet rope was
obdurate, the knot more anil more
hopeless, and my efforts to make light
of the situation awakened no response
In the girl. I tugged away at the rope,
attacking its tangle on various the-
ories.
"A case for surgery, I'm afraid. A
truly gordian knot, but 1 haven't my
knife."
"Oh. but you wouldn't!" phe ex-
claimed "1 think I can manage."

UNITED STATES SUIT BROUGHT
AGAINST MUSKOGEEITES
Petition States That Creek Nation
Has Been Defrauded by Spec-
ulators—Suit Is Result of
Foulk Investigation
Recently
MUSKOGEE: The United States,
acting for the Creek ntalon, has com-
menced suits against alleged 1 t grab-
bers in several towns in the nation
charging that many lots were illegally
secured for half their value. Tho suit
is brought by M. L. Mott, attorney
for the Creek nation, afld is the result
of th« investigation of William Dudley
Fonlk, the special representative of
the president.
The defendants in the cases filed
are prominent. P. Porter, chief of
the Creek ntaion, is made a defend-
ant in most f the cases. The Mus-
kogee Title and Trust company is a
defendant in two cases and D, H.
Middleton, president of the City Na-
tional bank, 3 defendant in another
and Marion li. Sawyer, a stenogra-
pher, who has been in the employ of
the Indian inspector for several
years, is a defendant in two cases,

Roosevelt Formally Opens Great Ter-
Centennial Exposition
NORFOLK. VA : President Roose-
velt, the diplomatic, naval and mili-
tary representatives of foreign na-
tions and the governors of a score ]
of st.:tt's participated la the opening
exercises of the Jamestown Tercen-
tennial exposition. The exposition is
far from complete, hut this was not
alowed to interfere in any way with
the celebration of the 300th anniver-
sary of the English\ settlement in
America.
From the firing of a sunrise salute
,f 300 guns by the United States
army, through the picturesque review
of the International fleet of war ves-
sels anchored in Hampton Roads,
through the ceremonies of dedication
at which the president spoke and
down to a late hour at night, when
the chief executive went aboard the
na ;al yacht to spend the night, the
day was crowded with n table inci-
dents.
Of especial note among the day's
events was the action of the president
in assuming command of the situation
in front of the crowded grandstand
from which he spoke when a panic
seized the surging throng of specta-
tors. Pressed against the guard ropes
by thousands t eager persons, the
safety of those who had the more fa-
vorable positions was endangered.
President Roosevelt had just been
introduced by Harry St. George Tuck-
er, head of the exposition company,
whi n the disorder and unrest in the
cr wd reached its height and tho civil
guards in front of the grand stand
seemed about to be swept from their

THE PRESIDENT
Severs, an adopted citizen of the
ti. n, are mentioned as defendants in j j)n The president jumped upon the
nearly all the suits Other defend- | table which had been placed in the
ants are A. %. English, Julius M.
Miller, R. L. Haugh, H. C. Jacobs, the
Creek Realty company, a corporation.
There are five separate suits and
the same defendants are mentioned in
nearly every one, except that Pleas-
ant Porter and C. W. Turner alone
are named as defendants in one suit.
In the suits filed it appears that the
contention centers, around the lots
that were scheduled t F. B. Severs,
C. W. Turner, Chief Porter and A. Z.
English, they being charged with hold-
ing more l?ts than the others.
Special interest will attach to the
holdings of Marlon B. Sawyer. Sev-
eral lots were scheduled to her origi-
nally. Others she had purchased
since. She was in the employment of
speaker's balcony anil cried out to the
men of Virginia to live up to their
traditions of gallantry and cease tho
pushing and crowding which was
threatening the lives of the w men
and children in the assemblage.
Tho crowd heeded the president's
warning, but when he had |r>ottled
down into his speech the imense au-
dience became uneasy again and
those on the outskirts began to press
forward once more in their anxiety to
hear. The president was interrupted,
and mounted officer., and men of the
United' States cavalry were called in
to take charge. They rode up and
ti wn along the front of the crowd
and gradually opened t up and re-
leved the pressure, wheh at one time

plied us with provender. I readily
found my way to the kitchen and to a
flight of stairs beyond, which connect-
ed the first and second floors. I stum-
bled up the unfamiliar way in the dark,
with, I fear, a malediction upon my
grandfather, who liad built and left in-
complete a house so utterly prepos-
terous. My unpardonable fling at the
girl still rankled; and I was cold from
the quick descent of the night chill on
the water and anxious to get into some
comfortable clothes. Once on the sec-
ond floor I was sure of the location o!!
my room, anil I was feeling my way
toward it over the rough floor when 1
heard low voices rising apparently
from my sitting-room.
It was pitch dark in the hall. I
stopped short and listened. The door
of my room was open and a faint light
flashed once into tho hull and disap-
peared. I heard now a sound as of a
hammer tapping upon wood-work.
Then it ceased, and a voice whis-
pered:
"He'll kill me if he finds me here.
I'll try again to-morrow. I swear to
God I'll help you, but no more now—"
Then the sound of a scuffle and
again the tapping of the hamiuer.
\fter several minutes more of this
there was a whispered dialogue which
I could not hear.
Whatever was occurring two or
three points struck me on the instant.
One of the conspirators was an unwill-
ing i arty to an act as yet unknown ;
second, they had been unsuccessful
and must wait for another opportu*
nlty; and third, the business, v/liati *
it was, was clearly of some importance
i to myself, as my own apartments in
"Certainly not," I said with asperity;
for I am not a person to inaugurate a
dinner hour one day and change it the
next. Bates wished to make conver
sation—the sure sign of a guilty con
science in a servant,—and I was not
disposed to encourage him.
I closed the doors carefully and be
gan a thorough examination of both
the siting room and the little bed
chamb'*.* i was quite sure that my
own effects could not have attracted
the two men who had taken advantage
of my absence to visit my quarter. .
Bates had helped unpack my trunk
and undoubtedly knew every item of
my simple wardrobe. 1 threw open
the doors of my three closets and
found them all in the good order
established by Bates. He had carried
my trunks and bags to a store-room,
so that everything 1 owned must have
passed under his eye. My money
even, the remnant of my fortune that
I had drawn from the New York bank,
I had placed carelessly enough in the
drawer of a chiffonier otherwise filled
with collars. It took but a moment to
satisfy myself that this had not been
touched. And, to be sure, a hammer
was not necessary to open a drawer
that had. frun its appearance, neve;
been locked. The game was det i > i
than I had imagined; I had scratchcd

NEW STATE CONSTITUTION NOW
IN HIS HANDS
Representative Watson Asks That He
Indicate What Ha Will Do
In Order to Avoid
Needless Expense
and Labor
WASHINGTON: Representative
Watson of Indiana has submitted to
the president a copy of the new state
constitution, with the request that he
Indicate whether he will or will not
approve such a constitution.
The copy, of the constitution sub-
mitted by Mr. Watson Is the first au-
thentic c py of that instrument that
has reached Washington. Watson is
a brother of Charles Watson, clerk
to one of the justices of the Oklaho-
ma supreme court, and he is said to
have sent It here.
In explaining his reason for sub-
mitting it to the president, Watson
said: "The republicans of the new
state think it would be f ollsh for
them to nominate candidates for
state offices and then conduct an ex-
pensive and laborious campaign to
elect those candidates if their work
is to be for naught, through the re-
fusal of the president to approve the
constitution."
The president did not say whether
he would In advance announce his
position regarding the constitution.
OKLAHOMA WHEAT NOW 60.8
Twenty Per Cent and 62.5 of Oats, to
Be Plowed Up
GUTHRIE: Returns from 314 crop

ships. compiled by Secretary C. A.
McNabb, show whoa: crop condition
GO.8 per cent of normal and oats crop
only about 30 per cent, which means
a total 1 ss in the more important
counties. The green bug Is held pri-
marily responsible for the damage to
both crops. The original wheat acre-
age is damaged 35 per cent by the
pest.
In several counties, notably Cana-
dian. Comanche and Logan, there will
probably be no wheat harvested.
Damage Is reported from every coun-
ty except Day, which grows very little
wheat. The 1 ss is heavy in all ex-
cept northwest counties, where the
wheat crop is always light. In the
large wheat counties the lowest dam-
age is in Woods, where it was 13.5
per cent. Additional reports since
show it may reach 25.
The largest Is in Kingfisher, 07.8.
Only one report in i lghteen there
showed less than 50 per cent dam-
age. In tho rest of the wheat belt
proper, the damage runs from 20 per
cent In Kay to GO In Noble. Twenty
per cent < f wheat will be plowed up.
The original wheat acreage is 8 per
cent less than last year. Twenty-one
counties show a decrease; only five
an increase, and those are In tho
northwest.
Oats damage by green bugs Is 7C
per cent. No damage is reported from
Day and Woodward, and practically
none from Beaver and Dewey. All
others suffered heavily. Wherever a
field of oats is attacked the destruc-
tion Is complete, not In spots like
wheat.
The original oats acreage is heav-
ily increased over last year, averaging
27.4 per cent for the territory. The
proportion of oats that will be plowed
up on account of bug damage Is esti-
mated at 62.5 per cenr. It is difficult
to tell what crops will be unit in
where fields are plowed up. Lab r
is scarce in many localities and fields
