The Spy Paramount By E. Phillips Oppenheim Copyright by Public Ledger, Inc. INSTALLMENT 36. EPILOGUE. Palace- -Well worth its position as the stage show which ends handsomely Cincinnati's spring season of vaudeville, the current one at the Palace Theater delighted the first Friday audience.

First of all, there are the Lucky Boys, a standard vaudeville act which neatly combines rough-house comedy, property laughs and a surprising amount of real acrobatic ability. This is followed by the "single" of Grace Doro. this lovely lady is found rare talent. as a mimic, especially in evidence in her song a la Mae West. At the piano, mimicry still holds sway as she imitates the harp, a player piano and an old-fashioned music box with its unvarying tune.

The humor of the bill reaches its climax in the person of Sidney Page and his "Pages Of Fun." These "Pages" are two lovely girls who appear on the stage as anything-but-lovely stooges, and make themselves the hilarious butt of Page's jokes. The act's humor is sure rapid fire. For the show's finale there is, of course, the headline attraction, Guy Lombardo and His Royal Canadians. At the Palace this week, they are still the nation's leading purveyors of "sweet music." Their numbers run the gamut from the usual popular tune to novelty songs, with the skilled orchestra being assisted at times by the singing of Liebert Carmen Lombardo and trio. It is understand the Lombardo popular-.

seeing their Palace stage appearance stage manner is THROUGH the drivings gray mists of the Channel, battling her way against the mountainous seas of the Bay of Biscay, emerging at last into the rolling waters of the Straits and the sunshine of Gibraltar, the famous yacht Esperance seemed, in a sense, to be making one of those allegorical voyages of the Middle Ages, dimly revealed in ancient volumes of fable and verse. Something of the same spirit had, perhaps, descended upon her two passengers- Martin Fawley and Elida-as they passed into the warm tranquillity of the Mediterranean. After the turmoil of the last few months a sort of dreaming inertia seemed to have gathered them into her bosom. They were never tired of sitting in their favorite corner on deck, searching the changing sea by day and the star-lit or cloud-bespattered sky by night, indulging in odd little bursts of spasmodic conversation, sometimes breaking a silence Elida, for her part declared, with the sole purpose of assuring herself that the whole affair was not a dream. In the long daylight hours a new gayety seemed to come to her.

She was restless with her happiness. She moved about the ship the very spirit of joy-light-footed, a miracle of grace and fantastic devotion to her very little more sedate lover. With the coming of night, however, her mood changed. She needed reassurance--Martin's arm and lips, the of their retired resting place. There was excitement in the very throbbing of the engines.

There were times when she felt herself shivering with the tremors of repressed passion. Martin surprised himself at the effortless facility with which, at such times, he played the part of lover and husband. With him, too, it seemed, after the hurricane of a stormy life, the opening of the great book of peace and romance. It was seldom that they spoke of the immediate past. Both seemed equally convinced that it belonged two utterly different people who would some day slowly awaken into life, rubbing their eyes.

Patches those colorful days, however, would sometimes present themselves. One morning Elida discovered her husband with a powerful telescope watching the distant land. She paused by his side-a silent questioner. "Somewhere among that nest of mountains," he pointed out, with grim smile of reminiscence, "is a French Colonel-a fine little chap and I should think a thorough soldier-the desire of whose life it was to see me with a bandage over eyes against his whitewashed barracks wall, facing a squad of picked rifle shots! Nearly came too!" She shivered and half closed her eyes. He understood that she was shutting out Europe from the field her vision.

He closed the telescope with a little snap. "We both had our escapes," he remarked. "Berati was out for your blood once. It is my watch," added, listening to the bell. "Come with me on the bridge for hour." She passed her arm through his they mounted the steps together.

The third officer made his report, saluted and withdrew. For several minutes afterward no word passed. Fawley, leaning a little forward over the canvas-screened rail, scanned the horizon with seaman's vision. At such times a sort of graven calm came to his features, new intensity to his keenly searching eyes. The blood of his seafaring ancestors revealed itself.

Deliberately, it seemed as though of natural habit, he examined with meticulous care every yard of the tossing waters. Only when he himself master of the situation his features relax. He smiled at Elida, drew her hand through his arm and commenced nightly promenade. Silence on the bridge.

What is usually called the elimination play," possible only at a suit declaration, is based upon the elimination of the exit suits from the hand of Declarer and Dummy at a time when both hands still hold trumps. In this form the victim is deprived of exit by virtue of the fact that a lead from a neutral side suit would allow Declarer to throw in one hand and discard in the other. In the hand below, in order to fulfill his contract, Declarer not only had to eliminate two suits from his own hand and Dummy, but also had to place the lead with the opponent who had the high honor in the remaining suit.

The deuce of diamond was returned and ruffed by Declarer with the club ten. The deuce of clubs followed and was won in the dummy with the nine, and the four of diamonds returned and, ruffed with the jack in the closed hand. Dummy was reentered by leading the club seven and overtaking with the king. Dummy's last diamond was led and ruffed, which eliminated the suit from the North-South hands. Declarer then led the ace, king and six of hearts, the last trick being won by East.

Unfortunately, East held the uh three adverse spade honors and was forced to lead the king, which was allowed to hold. East had to continue the suit, letting the jack make as well as the ace, and so allowing Declarer to make contract.

New York, May 24-(AP)-Ralph Dalton, National President of the Hobo Fellowship, a national organization with headquarters in Cincinnati, announced today that war veterans belonging to the organization are mobilizing for a bonus March to Washington on or before June 5.

He said the organization planned to keep 5,000 veterans in Washington until the bonus is paid. They will be self-sustaining, he said, and will be relieved at two-week intervals. He said only men able to finance themselves were being mobilized. World War veterans are being asked to report at the old City Hospital grounds, Twelfth and Central Avenue, at 1 o'clock this afternoon to mobolize for another march on Washington to urge the immediate passage of bonus legislation. The mobolization in Cincinnati is headed by Jess R.

Parker, who promises free meals and lodging to veterans who join the march. the five-spade contract was a small diamond which West won with the Ace and returned a club, East trumping with his singleton spade. East and West deplored the fact that South had wisely passed the five spades, instead of bidding six. But North and South deplored the fact that they had not bid six clubs, although East comforted them somewhat with the information that he would have bid six diamonds, had South bid six clubs.

Questions And Answers. Question--On the following hand opened the bidding with one Spades--K Hearts- -J 10 Diamonds Clubs-x Was North's three-spade bid correct, and what should partner have inferred from this bid? The entire bidding was as follows: 1 Heart 3 Spades 4 No trump 5 Spades 5 No-trump 6 Spades Was the six-spade bid correct? S. Answer -The three-spade bid is eminently correct and shows nothing whatever but spades; usually a solid suit, but with eight, the length in the suit should sate for the missing ace or jack. If South is playing the four-five no-trump convention he should have bid five no-trump, showing three aces and the king of a bid suit. In any event North must continue to bid spades.

(Copyright, 1935, by Frances G. Tyler) COUNTY COURTS FEDERAL Double Alimony Is Involved, Former Spouse Avers. In an effort to set aside a separation agreement whereby he must pay Gertrude E. Walker, 3317 Lambert Place, his divorced wife, $50 a month for life or until she is remarried, William A. Walker, Atlanta, yesterday filed in Common Pleas Court a petition in which he asserts double alimony is involved.

Mrs. Walker sued for divorce after Walker had entered into a separation agreement to pay her $50 a month until January 1, 1935, and $60 a month thereafter. November 20 last, she obtained a divorce. She also was awarded real estate and $1,200 00 alimony by Judge Charles W. Hoffman, the Court stipulating the cash wag to be paid at the rate of $50 a month.

Now Walker declares this alimony order should have ended separation agreement. He says the $50 a month ordered has been paid, but that his wife has sued him in Atlanta Municipal Court on a claim of $200, due under the separation agreement. He asks the Court to determine whether the separation agreement was terminated by the divorce and alimony decree. Women Couldn't Resist Him! According to testimony by Helen Key Bennett, 29 years old, 2525 Burnet Avenue, in her suit for divorce from Claude Bennett, 34, he wondered what it was about him that "made all the women fall for him." Mrs. Bennett told Judge Hoffman that her husband would not work, but associated with other women, got money from them, and, instead of treating her as a wife, threatened her life.

They were married December 12, 1932. She filed suit for divorce in February, 1933. Then, Bennett making promises, they were reconciled and she dismissed that suit April 19, 1934. Two weeks later, she said, his actions compelled her to leave him again. She received a divorce on the ground of neglect.

Score One For Each Now! Walter Kuhlman, 37, 4225 Bell Street, Norwood, and Beatrice Ver'din Kuhlman, 31, each boasts a divorca decree. They were married October 1, 1927, but she divorced him July 21, 1933. Shortly thereafter a reconciliation took place. They were remarried October 6, 1933. Yesterday Kuhlman obtained a divorce on the ground of neglect, the wife not contesting.

He said their second marriage lasted but a short time. The trouble, he said, was that she took a great delight in spending money, with the result that she kept him "broke." Gone Nearly Ten Years. Accusing him of willful absence since October 15, 1925, Nora N. Rabe, 2545 Indian Mound Avenue, Norwood, filed suit in Domestic Relations Court for a divorce from Theodore Rabe, Birmingham, Ala. They were married September 10, 1919.

They have no children. Seeks Second Divorce. Suing for a second divorce from A Alice Carrie Turner, 7315 Montgomery Silverton, Charles Frederick Turner, Montgomery, Ohio, says that after their first marriage his wife sued, but he filed a cross-petition and obtained the decree. His wife received custody of their child, however. February 26, 1929, they were married the second time.

Turner now complains that she refused to leave the home of her mother. She quarreled with him frequently, the mother-in-law siding against him, Turner avers. He left her in December, 1931, when she told him she did not need a husband and could get along without him, Turner asserts. Other Divorce Decrees. On the ground of neglect, Wilbur Schweikert, 25 Shirley Avenue, was granted a divorce from Gladys Schweikert.

Other decrees granted Judge Hoffman: Mabel Lorengen Frederick, 1557 Ruth Avenue, from James Frederick, neglect; William O. Krueger, Queen City Avenue, from Gertrude Kreuger, neglect; Marcella Hehn Dean, 1225 Gilsey Avenue, from Richard Dean, neglect; Evelyn Fitzmorris Jones, 4116 West Eighth Street, from J. Howard Jones, neglect, and John Heuerman, 1709 Race Street, from Lillian Heuerman, willful absence. Judge Refers Case. Judge Charles S.

Bell referred the case of George Harris, Negro, to the Probation Department, after convicting him on a charge of housebreaking in Criminal Division. Harris waived a jury. Frank M. Gusweiler, Assistant County Prosethat on Harris attempted cutor, presented, evidence showing to enter the New Fisheries Company's Store, 326 West Sixth Street, through a skylight. Fastening a rope to the skylight, he started to slide down the 30 feet to the floor.

The rope broke, however. Harris's right ankle was fractured. Police found the Negro the place after being notified that he had been seen trying to enter. NEW SUITS FILED. COMMON PLEAS COURT.

Detroit Judge Files Reply On Trial Of Bankers. Judge Ernest A.

A few paragraphs in a modern novel which she passed to him with a smile contained sentences which struck home to them both. The self-consciousness of the lover has increased enormously since the decay of Victorian sentimentalism. Allegorically speaking, it is only among the brainless and the lower orders of today that the man walks unashamed with his arm around his sweetheart's waist, and both scorn to wait till darkness for the mingling of lips. The affection of Edwin and Angelina of the modern world may be of the same order as that which inspired their and seem to have great-grand- lost the idea of how to set about it. In town this seems to be a fair idea of what goes on.

Edwin and Angelina find themselves by accident alone. "What about spot of love-making, old dear?" Edwin suggested apprehensively. "All right, old bean, 1 but for heaven's sake don't let's moon about alone! We'll ring up Morris's Bar and see if any of the crowd are over there." Or if the amorous couple happen to be in the country the reply to the same question is a feverish suggestion that they try if the old bus will do over 60 or rival bags of golf clubs are produced, or Edwin is invited to search for his gun and come along and see if there's an rabbit sitting outside the woods.

"You come anyhow of a race which expresses itself far more naturally than we Anglo-Saxons can, and whether I self-conscious about it or not, not in the least ashamed that I am absolutely and entirely in love with you." She stretched out her arms. "Come and tell me so again, darling," she invited. "Tell me so many times during the day. Do not let us care what any of these moderns are doing. Keep on telling me so." Which invitation and his prompt acceptance of it seemed form the textbook of their wonderful cruise.

The stars faded a faint green light in the east broke into the coming day. They heard the ringing down of the engine behind. They were passing through the placid waters now at half speed.

The shape and color of that dark mass gradually resolved themselves. The glimmering light sank into obscurity. There were rolling woods and pine-topped hills surrounding the old-fashioned town of quaintly shaped buildings which they were slowly approaching. Behind there was a great sweep of meadowland-a broad ribbon of deep green turf-cut so many ages ago that it seemed as though it from all time. At the end was a must have been a a lordly avenue dim vista of flower gardens sur.

As they drew nearer they could hear the chimes, the sound of bells floating over the water. He pressed her arm. "No salute," he warned her.

"Some one told me there was not a upon the island." sun, that not rather wonderful?" she whispered. "We have had all two people need of strife. The bells are better." They were near enough now to hear the birds in the woods which hung over the cliffs. A flight of duck surprised them. Tne chiming bells grew more melodious.

There a little catch in her voice AS arms reached out for him. "The people on the quay may see but I do not care," she whispered. "This is paradise which we have found!" a ing THE END. Creditors Hold Meetings. First meetings of creditors were held yesterday in the office of W.
