NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 4.1925 - Remember The Dog! The prosperity of the United States is threaied: First, by excessive importations ui foreign products under a tariff h'v denounced as prohibitive, but which in many schedules is insuf ficient to cover the difference in cost of production, chieflv labor COHts at liotne and abroad, aud Hierefore insufficient, to prevent Hie slowing down or closing of not a few Aiiietiean industrial plants. .Second, by excessive atteution to lo foreign, as compared to domestic financial and trade needs, bv A lllCricau fiiienciers, resulting in an cXport of gold which is producing a fop sided deflation. h ithiii reason imports of com. lllnHities and exports of gold are lcIpful rather than harmful to A Wericim prosperity. Beyond that P011U they may become a menace. Au I1Z serious interruption of busi llcSs and employment in. the United laies would bring political as well as economic consequences- of Eraie character.

The government had made all preparations for the trial of the Salisbury bank case at. a-'.special term of court to lie held in G.reens- boro, February 23rd, special judge Woods, of West Virginia, had been secured aud District Attorney Lin- ney had everything in readinessbut the cases have again term jn June when doubtless another scheme will be hatched up to keep these Demo cratic politicians from being brought to justice. Clyde R. Hoey, who wants to go to the U. S, Senate when “ Andy Gump” ’ checks out, approached Mr. Linney recently and askei for a continuance but was refused. Backed by powerful intents Mr. Hoey proceeded to Washington and got the department of justice to consent .to. a continuance. . The defendants in the case are J. D. Norwood, former chairman of the State -Democratic executive commute; J Kemp Doughton, sou. of R A Doughton, Democratic State commissioner of revenue and SI. L- Jackson, of Salisbury. These tnen are charged with misappropri ting funds aggregating a total of $325,135 of the Peoples National bank, of Salisbury. The bank in question closed its doors on the morning of June Srh, 1923, and early in 1924 tbe indict ment was returned. J. Kemp Doughton, was formerly president of the bank, and Norwood and Jackson were members of-its board of directors. Norwood was indicted on an independent vote bill contain ing; two counts and.thre* named in another bill having 16 counts.- . The.cause of the failure of the institution-is generally attribu ed to the bankruptcy of the MeckIen- Surg Mills company, of - Charlotte, in which Norwood and Jackson were stockholders and the Clyde and Newton mills', of Newton, and the Nacy mill in Montgomery county. It is alleged that the bank was carrying large amounts of worthless paper of the mills at the time of the failure. ” The closing of three., smaller banks at-Spencer, Granite Quarry and Rockwell- was also a.tiibuted to the same cause.’ Norwood is reported to be in the real estate business at Birmingham, Ala , having recently reported to be jn .the real estate business at Birui n^haui1 Ala., having recent ly acquitted a large tract of’ land which lie is developing. Dbugh- t jn is said to be in Winston-Salem. Ou account of the prominence of the accused many people are skep tical of their ever facing trial.

Two years ago; legislators’ turned down a similar measure with scant consideration.

Politics is a strange animal anyhow. We have been taught that it was bad policy to mix church and state The Cooleemee Journal says that the church is trying to run the North Carolina legislature, or words to that effect. Politics makes strange bedfel lows, but it is a well-known fact that there are towns in this coun try where a Republicin preach er is not near so welcome as the flowers in June. The fellow who iliink-i every body is going to liell that doesn’t belong to his particular party or church is the same fellow who is going to occupy the warmest spot in the lower regions. From present indications there is not going lo be much friut this summer. Tlie onlysale and sure crop is the blackberry which flour ishes despite liotor cold weather in February or March. The people in this country have much to be thankful for at all times but especially just at this season when Congress had adjourned and the North Carolina legislature is getting ready to breathe its last for two years.

Thous ands of tourists who pass through our town annually, are comment ing on this missing link and what they say about our town and coun ty is not always complimentary. The town and county commission ers should get together and have this eyesore removed. Surely there is a little spark of local pride in the bosoms of our commissioners. Mocksville is badly in need of more manufactuiing enterprises. We have too many empty houses in the town. People cannot live here and pay rent without they have something to do. There is plenty of room here for half a dozen small mills and factories, such as a hosiery mill, furniture factory, sash and blind factory, Iiandle factory, etc.. Other towns in this section are getting new enterprises froni'time to.iijfie and there is %'o Teason why Mocksville should dot grow and prosper along with the rest of the country. The word has been broadcasted that the speed fiends are going to get what is coming to them in Mpcksville. It seems that the concrete highway through the towu has been turned into a speed way by both white and black auto dri vers. Cars are operated through the business part of the town at a speed of from 25 to 50 miles an hour. A. merciful providence has protected-the lives of the children here so far but one ot these da vs an S awful calamity will happen. It may not be you or your child that is crushed to death, but it will be somebody’s child The speed law through the business section of the towu is 15 miles per hour. We trust that the office s will hew to the line, letting the chips fall where they may. Trying To Soak Davie. The House committee defeated the proposal 10 place Davie county under the bogus Australian ballot law furnished by the Democrats and backstood'Representaive Poole, of Alexander, when he asked to get his .county from under. Dis playing the state seal and the ori ginal bill, Mr. Poole offered to feed the whole of little Alex if it would send a delegation down here expressing its satisfaction with this law. The Davie bill brought roose ments from afar. FonnerSolicitor Hayden Clement, of Rowan coun ty, appearing for Davie Democrats, spoke for the" bill which got into the house via Cobb, of Robeson county. Representative Crawford, of Davie, said he was never asked to intro duce such a bill and never heard' of any until it got here through Mr. Cobb. That set bardly on several Democrats. They had read some of these bills and there is 110 pre tense of Republican friendship a-, bout them. Senator-Turuer Grant made a furious onslaught on the bill and beat it. The primary repealer was oppos ed by Mr. Daniels who declared that states which go forward never turn back. Extension of popular rule is never followed by abridg inent of those rights. The state wide primary has helped the De mocratic party, he contended. It has reduced the Republicans to ab solute impotency and made the ma jority of his party tremendous. ‘‘Two years'ago it made Davie go Democratic and two years hence it will go Democratic again,” he said. "M r. Grant we are going to give you the Australian ballot,” Mr. Daniels said. “Are you certaiu about that?" Mr. Graut said with sharpness. “Ought to do it,” Mr. Daniels replied laconically. He seemed to have iii mind a real Australian bal lot. Mr. Clement with former Repre sentative Hendricks near him, spoke for the Australian ballot. Mr. Clement was a native Davie mail and he knougi the struggles of the Democrats there He spoke for them. Mr. Grant was savage. He wheeled on Mr. Hendricks and told him that he would not dare to run iu Davie county on a record" of fa voring such a ballot for his people' Then he hopped on Clement. "Do you want it for your county?” he asked in that stinging voice. “I want it for North Carolina,” Mr. Clement said soltly. “Do you want this bill for my county'and not for your county?” Grant pressed him, and Clement said he would like it for Rowan. However, it is denied here that he will remain over and have it intro duced. But the vote to kill the bill was almost unanimous. ‘ Representative Poole made an appeal to the committee to allow him his bill to repeal the Australian ballot law of Alexander. He- said both he and his opponent pledged themselves to do so; that he had re ceived every evidence from Frank Grist and T. P Bumgarner, auth ors of the Caldwell and Stanley laws, that Alexander never was on their list. He said there were evidence of fraud in the bill' fur nished him by the secretary of state. There was no opposition to repeal and he carried- the fight through —Greensboro News. DAVIE CAFE FOR LADIES AND GENTLEMEN MEALS AND LUNCHES , ICE ( REAM AND COLD DRINKS REASONABLE PRICES P. K.

BAKING POWDER Ottawa, Can.—Green fruit producers and consumers throughout Western Canada and In a large ^portion of the United States are under the domina tion of jobbing and brokerage houses, it was charged In a report filed with the Canadian government by Duncan Lewis, recently appointed to investi gate an allegad fruit distribution trust. In his report !Commissioner found that the combination “has operated detrimentally to the Interests of the CSanadian public" In British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba provinces. He further h,e3d that the Nasih houses, of which there are 45 in Canada ,linked np with 84 in United States, are a price-fixing combination illegally maintained under the com bines investigtion act of 1923. It was under this statute that Lewis was ap pointed as investigator. Various combines under the Nash leadership, described as the largest handlers of green fruit in the world, according to Lewis, have divided west ern Canada into Wokerage areas and have compelled all brokers seeking produce direct to jobbing houses to pay toll to the -brokerage houses of fhe alleged combine. In some in stances, the report said, this toll amounts to as much.as $90 a car. This practice, the report holds, “restricts distribution, assists'the creation ol monopoly, and injures consumer, pro ducer and broker.” Lewis recommended the establish ment of nationwide grower-owned selling agency as a/remedy fro exist ing conditions, in the marketing ol fruits and vegetables throughout west ern Canada.

Uminska, a Polish act ress of her finance to relieve him from agony from an incurable disease. Mile Uminska recently was acquitted. ‘I am a firm believer in the here after,” declared Anna evasseur. “I have no fear o f going to the great be yond to meet my sister if men sentence me to die.” Three Killed in A C. L. Smash-Up. Newark, N. J.—I1Iiree railroad em ployes were killed and about 40 pas sengers were injured, a few seriously, in a rear end collision between two passenger trains at Manhattan Trans fer.

Y, 'The inspestors were preparing- to couple an engine to the express. The nine-car train was thrown forward into the engine by the collision and they were: crushed.

FE D E R A L R E S E R V E G O V ERN O RS REO R G A N IZE W IT H PRO S- , PE R IT Y . New .York.—Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York formally recognized the rising tendency ot money rates, resulting from recent business expansion and the greater de mand for funds in expanded securities trading ,by raising the rediscount rate from 3 to 3% per cent. The 3 per cent rate which was the lowest In the history of the federal reserve sys tem as -well as the lowest bank rate in the world, had been in effect since August 8, 1924. The new rate be- comes effective at once. ThelArst effects of the advance were felt in the foreign exchange mar ket where ’a break of more' than a cent took place in sterling. The re-- action in the British currency appar ently -was based on the theory that with the New York rate only one- half per cent below the London bank rate, the attraction of capital to Great Britain for interest returns would be lessened. ’ Maintenance of lower r.e- discounts In the United- States had been expected to aid in the possible return of sterling to par. Although both the stock and bond markets are normally sensitive to any change in the rediscount rate the act ion had no direct effect since. it was not announced until after the close of the sessions. Dealings, however, were somewha£ restricted, as had been the case on almost every meeting date of the reserve bank directors this year. The advance ordered was the first upward revision of the rate since Feb ruary 23, 1923, when a 4% per cent charge was established. This remain ed in effect until SJay 1, 1924, when the first of last year’s series of reductions was initiated. Tivo subsequent cuts were necessary to bring the rediscount rate into alignment with open money market quotations, which have govern ed the reserve bank rate policy. Since the post-election stock market boom and trade expansion got under way late last year however, Wall street has been looking for a higher rediscount rate. [WO KILLED Bt DYNAMITE Ponzi Guilty in Theft Case. - Boston.—A verdict of guilty was re turned in Suffolk County Superior Court by a jury trying Charles Ponzi, former international postal return cupon financier, on charges of larceny from . clients.

The jury found Ponzi guilty on four teen' counts of the four indictments against him which covered an aggre gate of $9,500. The complainants were persons who in 1920 invested in Ponzi’s enterprise which guaranteed fabulous returns. Evidence at the ,trail showed that the former financial “wizard” had taken in millions from investors. . Ponzi pleaded guilty in 1920 to frau dulent use of the mails and was sen tenced in Federal court to a term In Plymouth jail. He has now been tried In the State courts three times on In dictments arising from his financial operation. Millionaire Accused In Plot. San Francisco.—Richard M.

McLamb; and a iegro helper by the name of Lee were tilled by the' explosion of cynamite Khich they had been using in blowing ip stumps in a; new ground. Mr. Mc- Lamb's father is reported to have Said there were at least 25 or 30 jticks of the explosive that killed the :wo boys. Both bodies were mangled ilmost beyond description. Pieces of ilothing were stripped from both. The theories advanced as to the >anse of the unfortunate accident vary to Sf certain degree but the father of IVIcLamb is inclined to think that the boys stood too close to a stump they were blastin gand holding to the tin bucket sOf the dynamite caps between them; the concussoin of the exploding stick under the stump set off the other. The accident occurred about eight miles from Duke and about eight miles of Coats. Mr. McLamb was un married. The parents of the two un fortunate boys are almost prostrated with grief, Mrs. McLamb being under the care of a physician. Duke May Build Railroad. Greensboro. — Greensboro business men are taking ;heart somewhat for competitive rail service because of a report that J. B. Duke, head of the Piedmont and Northern Railroad, an electric line ,plans extension of the line from Charlotte to Durham. Further expansion, would be to Hhk the line in North Carolina with that in South Carolina by building a track from Gastonia to Spartanburg, S. C. From Spartanburg the line goes to Greenville, Anderson and Greenwood, S. C. An article appearing in the Wail Street Journal is the basis for the reports. People familiar with rail roading seem to think that it a. line is built from Charlotte to Durham it will follow the Southern practically all the way and si* take in Greensboro. Following the Southern it would have for feeders the towns and cities using power of the Southern Power Company in their industries. The matter is yet in the realms of speculation, but intimation of belief in the article In the Wall Street Journal of such a step brings' hope that the Southern Power and Electric Line head would -extend the. line and come through here with it.

CHAPTER III—Continued —3— shorty glared at him. "Say, what kinda game are you playin, that’s what we want to know?” he demanded. "Is this a showdown or ain’t it?” "Not for me,” answered Lee. "AU right!” Shorty clambered on his horse with an oath and cantered back to where Pierre was standing, cursing as he tried to tighten his girthj A colloquy ensued. The pair rode up to the girl, who was already In her saddle. There followed an ani mated pantomime, with gesticulations toward Lee. The girl seemed to sit obstinately mute, as If she remained neutral. Suddenly Shorty wheeled his horse about. “Come ’long, Pierre, I 'guess we’ve give the fool his chnnsti” he shouted. And, to Lee’s surprise, the pair kicked their mounts in the ribs, and in a moment were off at full gal lop, along the trail leading into the range beyond the valley. The girl and Lee looked after them till they were out of sight. Then she rode slowly up to where Lee was sit ting on his mount. “I understand that you insist on ac companying me?” she asked. ‘‘De spite the fact that I have made it clear I do not require your company?” "I’m sorry you take my presence in that spirit. I assure you I have no de sire to be troublesome. But under the circumstances I must ask leave to go with you as far as your destination.” She bit her lip. “I suppose you mean what you are doing as a' kindness,” she said. “And since you appear determined, to ac company me, I suppose there is no use in our sulking With each other, is there?” “I wish we could be friends,” answered Lee, offering her his hand. . But the girl’s little hand did not advance to meet his "I mean,” she said, “if we are com panions,'we may as well acknowledge it, though I assure ycu, I am a very unwilling one. That does not imply friendliness. I hope your persistence will be properly rewarded.” “Let me say once and for all,” Lee answered, “that I have no desire to pry into your business. I don’t even know your name, or wish to ask it.” “If I dared to let myself believe that you have no other purpose in view than just to protect me—” she began. “But it is. impossible. Men aren’t like that They are wolves, they are wolverenes, treacherous, cunning, re? morseless. Oh, if I could believe you, if I dared trust you—” “I would do anything on earth to help and serve you,” answered Lee. "If you mean seriously that you find it so difficult to make your decision be tween those men and myself—I don’t think it’s conceit to say this, and, if it is, this isn’t the time to think of any thing like that—a man is said to bear the stamp of his life and character on his face. I don’t know what impres sion I give to others, but I know what impression those two men gave me. Can’t you read their faces? If you can’t trust ,me, can you, at least, say honestly that you trust them?” “But you—what are you1—why— Vi She looked at him fearfully. “It isn’t that. . It isn’t—God forbid !—that I think you capable of—of what you told mg about them. If it were simply a nm(ter of choosing between yourself and them,‘I should put my trust in .you witliout the, smallest hesitation. But—Oh, 'l can’t say any more. It’s hopeless—it is worse degradation than death to me, and yet I must keep up my strength and resolution—I must—” The breakdown eaipe upon her like a lightning stroke. Slie ,seemed to crumple up; she sobbed desolately into her' hands. Lee moved to her side. “Do you know," he said, “we have' to trust people In this life, even if they de ceive us. It doesn’t harm us to be betrayed.” But he was thinking of Estelle as he spoke, and he wondered how far that was true. ,Estelle’s be trayal had changed the whole setting of his life for, him. “Trust me,” he . said. . . j Let me help you. Tell me where . you are going, and why, and what those men are, to you.” It was a full half-minute before she ' took her hands from her face, but sli< did not reply. AU that day they rod’ together. But not until they had pitched their tents again for the night, did she refer to the men who had threatened her. “Will you be frank with me?" she asked. “Will you tell me what you are doing In the range?” “I am not free to do so." “And am I free? Is any one of us free?” she cried. "No, It’s impossible. I must just go on and ask God to give me strength to bear It! Don’t speak to me for a few moments—there, I’m sorry I made such a.fool of myself!” She smiled. “At any rate, we are going to acknowledge each other’s existence, aren’t we?” she said. “And if you insist on riding with me—well, I can’t help it. Only, I warn you, you are going into danger—grave danger. Those two men—I am afraid they may be planning to do you some injury.” “I don’t think they are likely to try very hard," answered Lee. “But—but others—” she whispered. “It is not only they! “You begged me to trust you. Sou said that you would do anything to serve and help me. Did you mean that?” “Anything that is possible.” “Anything?’* she persisted. “If It lies in my power.” “Then would you—would you kill a man for me? A human wolf, one of those devil creatures that does not de serve to live? Would you kill him to serve me? ‘Walt before you answer. He is a man who has betrayed those who have trusted him, made humanity a mockery; he is the foulest thing that creeps upon the earth. Earth should be rid of him. If I help you, will you shoot him down like the savage dog that be is, in cold blood, without dan ger to yourself, while he is sleeping?. If I help you?” “No,” answered Lee quietly. She laughed in mocking scorn. “So I supposed,” she answered. “You men. With your professions of loyalty and service—you’re all the same when it comes to tiie test.” “I won’t commit murder in cold blood and without provocation.” “No, of course not. You see, there! might be just a little danger in it. He is very crafty, and your, offer of serv ice didn’t include personal risk—” Lee’s fingers closed on her arm. “That’s hot the way,” he said. “One doesn’t right wrongs with wrongs, or even up scores by murder. Tell me everything, and I pledge myself to see that whatever wrong you have suf fered shall be redressed.” ‘Oh, I’ve heard that before, and when I put you to the test «1 found just what those words were worth,” she answered lightly. “No, please for-' get what I have just said to you. I didn’t mean it, anyway. There is no such man as I spoke of. There couldn’t be, for he would have been killed long ago. I was just wondering whether I was to take you seriously or not—and I found we were both playing a game. Good-night!” She moved away abruptly and went Into her tent. And ail that night he lay, hardly dozing, his automatic beside his hand, waiting and wondering. CHAPTER IV The Trap Is Sprung • In the morning she greeted him with a forced gaiety. She nodded and smiled when she came out of her tent. “Well, weysball ride on together to day, I suppose,” she said. “I have told you that I do not desire your com pany, and that your enterprise is prob ably a dangerous one. You have taken the responsibility upon yourself. With the understanding, we-.‘go as com-, panions instead of enemies. Is that not so?” And this time it was the girl who extended her hand. Lee took it and held if for a moment In his own. “That's the understanding,” he an swered.- “I intend to see you to your destinatipn, wherever that is, and after that you need ^not be afraid of my tronbling you any more.” “And as for yesterday,” said the girl, “you will forget that I was a little hysterical and upset? ,You see, Jt is quite an ordeal, going on so long a journey, and I. was tired and said foolish things that had no meaning in them at all." . ■ • She watched Lee’s face closely as she said this. But Lee did uot reply. They mounted and continued the journey. It was about ten o’clock when they heard two or three full reverberations; in the distance. The girl, who wag riding a few yards ahead of Lee, reided in and stood her horse upon a turfy hillock, waiting for him to catch up with lier. ‘ “What was ,that?” she asked, look-, ing at him with startled, eyes. “Dynamite,” Lee responded. “Dynamite? Why—who would—?” “Some prospector blasting rock on his claim, no doubt,” answered Lee, and dgain there sounded a'detonation. She. seemed to muse a moment or two. “It rather startled me,” she said. “I have been afraid since those wo men left us—afraid some harm nay.come to you from them. You will ->• on your guard, won’t you?” I “Yes. I promise you that,” Lee an swered ; and She Axedj her eyes on his face with her peculiar scrutiny for a few moments, and then started her tiorse. The afternoon began to wear away. They were slowly descending toward the northern pass of the range, beyond which lay the immense territories that they tad seen. They began to traverse precarious defiles, overhung by huge boulders, prismatic from the corrosion of the season. Underneath them, at the bottom of a long descent, in places nearly perpendicular, the tor rent raced among the rocks. It was so still upon those heights that the rush of the torrent far under neath them sounded thunderous; and the air wasjso calm, the sky so blue, that it' might have been an Italian summer, rather than a Canadian au tumn. An eagle, floating motionless, high overhead, seemed to have been pinned against the background of the blue void. The girl reined In and waited for Lee to ride up to her. “Be very careful with that horse of yours,” he said. “There's a difficult bit a : little distance ahead, but it’s the last, and then we’ll have an easy jour ney down through the pass.” She- started off again, Lee following some twenty paces behind her. But of a sudden Lee’s horse balked, laid back his ears and snorted, planted his fore feet firmly and refused to move. It was almost impossible to dis mount and lead him, for at that point, the narrowest part of the trail, there was hardly standing room for man and beast together. Lee held ill the ani mal with a tight rein, and patted his quivering flanks. He could not understand what had alarmed it, but now some instinct, per haps communicated from the beast's brain to his, seemed to'tell of danger threatening. He glanced at the girl, and saw that she was almost across the danger zone. He dared not call to her, for fear of startling her. And, indeed, I He Caught at Her Horse’s Bridle. “Jump! Jump!” He Shouted, Hold ing Out His Arms. there was no reason to call, although that baseless instinct was now becom; ing so strong that it almost amounted to conviction. „ He could not see the least cause for apprehension anywhere. His fears ap peared absurd; and yet’ that electric message of warning went flashing back and forth between bis mind and that of his frightened mount. Then suddenly there came the roar of an explosion; muffled underground; the next the rocks over his head seemed to upheave. . An enormous crack appeared in the face of the wall, of solid rock, which trembled and ap peared to move toward |iim, as if pushed by a gigantic hand; and before the reverberations had died away Lee heard a faint, crepitating sound, .like the rustling of paper—the sliding of the interior strata, one upon another. A little avalanche of stones, dis lodged from the surface, came rush ing down the face of the cliff midway between the girl and himself. Had Lee’s horse not stopped, it must have been swept over the edge of the preci pice. • ' Another roar, and a huge rock top pled and fell, this time behind, 'and smashed into a score of fragments which went rolling into the chasm be low, waking a hundred reverberations among the hills. , And with that'Lee understood the devilish scheme that-was In the work ing. • The. dynamiting which he had heard that afternoon wjig.the prelimi nary1 work of the- two;.luep.in prepar ing their trap; now they had'set fuses among the rocks at the narrowest point of the trail, with the purpose of blow ing him to destruction. And it. was a murder plan that would leave no evidence behind it, surer and safer than s rifle shot.) Another explosion; and between the sound of the dull roar and the up heaval, Lee, seeing the. girl apparently trying to urge her plunging animal back toward him, stood up in. his stir rups and waved his hand frantically toward her.“Go back! Go back I” he shouted. But the girl 'seemed bewildered, and only dung to her plunging, snorting beast, over which she had lost con trol,'the while it pawed the air and danced desperately upon the narrow way. Lee vaulted from his horse, strug gled'upon the edge of the precipice, re gained his footing, and ran toward her. He caught at her horse’s bridle. “Jump! Jump I” he shouted; holding out his arms.And the few following seconds seemed to extend through all eternity. Another roar, and the whole face of the mountain wall appeared to crum ple into -a landslide. As In a help less dream Lee saw the falling wall strike the girl’s horse in the flank and sent it screaming into the chasm. And, as he vainly grasped at her an impact shot him over the precipice as if he had been hurled from the mouth of a cannon. He felt himself hurtling into space, he grasped at emptiness and went tumbling far down into unconscious- CHAPTER V The Severed Stralids And the. returning scene of con sciousness was at first only the dim knowledge'of pain, in terms of which be visualized existence. That pain seemed to have existed from all eternity, filling all space and time. It usurped all the functions of the body. He was the nucleus of it, sprawling like an inert being at the heart of creation, and out of him pain radiated through the universe. And then came sight—chaos of brown and green, fantastic mountains clothed with sparse, unbrancbing trees, earth’s primitive creation, hugje con tinents that he bestrode, a Brobding- nag of his species, solitary in the world. Lee became aware that his eyes were open. And very slowly he grew aware of his own identity. He began looking about him. Then he made the discovery that the mountains he had seen were boulders, the vegetation moss and grasses. He was lying upon the ground, with a great rock on either side of him, half way down the gorge at the bottom of which the torfent coursed. Low scrub alder and ether growth formed a sort of fan-work over him, completely concealing him. - Above this fan- work was a glimpse of the gray sky. He began to remember things. He had been riding, had been thrown from his mount. The inspector had sent him to bring somebody in—Snell, Kelly-T-PelIy! He must have encount ered Pelly and have been shot ’ Pelly had been a- foOl not to finish the job. He must get after him again. And what had happened to his horse? Now from where he lay he had a glimpse of the fawh flanks, the shin ing steel circlets beneath the hoofs. His horse was lying lower down the slope, at the very edge of the rocks beside the torrent. Pelly must !have shot his horse as well. Or perhaps it was only the horse, and Lee had been stunned by the fall. The red rim of the sun was just dipping into the- horizon and Lee re membered that whep he had last seen it, it was. midway in .the western sky. But he had seen it from a cliff-top. With that the girl flashed into the picture. Lee saW her and her horse toppling down the ravine. He remem bered his own fall, the landslide, the dynamite. Memory" grew complete, the last links snapped into place. He realized that he had been flung from the heights above, and that by a miracle of luck his descent into the rock-strewn torrent had been arrested by the scrub growth which held him. Otherwise those rocks would have ground 'and battered him almost out of semblance to a man, or tossed him' into the whirling' torrent. As it was, it was a miracle that he had survived.the fall. Probably he was badly injured. He must count on broken limbs. He tried to rise, and instantly the body screamed its protest. With im mense difficulty he succeeded in get ting upon his hands and knees. He flexed each of his limbs in turn. He felt his body and ribs, he patted him self all over. It was incredible, but though every muscle In his body seemed twisted, and he was aching and bruised from head to foot, no bones appeared to be broken. Peering along the edge of the ravine, Ifee saw the girl's horse lying a little distance away. • , The effort to get upon his feet seemed to consume an incredible period of time. By the exercise of all his will Lee managed to keep his balance until the rocking earth had grown comparatively stable. Then, forcing ,his rebellious limbs and muscles into co-ordination, he stag gered toward the gtffs horse. It was alive, but its back and limbs were broken, so that it was completely paralyzed. It looked at Lee as he ap proached out of Its, bright, pathetic eyes, instinct with the foreknowledge of death. , Lee was sick with the fear, that he. would either find the girl dead—bat tered almost-out of recognition among the rocks—or. missing; drowned In' the ■torrent below. He searched every inch of the sur rounding terrain within' a radius of three hundred yards, and then aban doned hope. Anger, boiling up within him, assisted In reviving strength. Ht would follow her murderers and. shoot them down like the wild, beasts they were. Before leaving the side of the in jured horse Lee drew his automatic, which had remained buckled InTiis belt holster throughout the fall, and merci fully ended the animal’s life with a single shot over the heart. Now there. remained the pursuit, vengeance—then the original duty of picking up Pelly. . But he kwore that he would take one man, not three, to Manistree. And, with the decision, he retraced his steps, until once more he stood be side the gorge between the, dead horses. , .« . • The'contents of the packs-had burst from the broken canvas and lay scat tered everywhere, but the rifle was not to he found. .Two or three cartridges at the edge of the chasm, were' all Lee found. - Reluctantly he came to the con clusion that his rifle lay at ,the bottom of the river. He turned doggedly to take up the pursuit again. But as be was passing the girl's horse, something yellow and shining on the ground caught bis eye. He stooped to examine it. Long* tresses of pale; yellow-brown hair coiled round his fingers. It was the hair of the girl I He tried to pick it up, but the ends were pinned under the dead animal, probably caught, in the-broken girth. The ends that lay upon the grdiind ap peared to have been roughly severed with a knife. , .There was no doubt it was the girl’s hair, and the tresses must have been severed' within'' a . few inches of her head, for there was more than three feet of them in view, trailing along the ground. ^ He tugged at them to detach them, but it was a matter of considerable effort, and he only, succeeded In re leasing t’tern strand by strand. At last, however, be managed to detach them, and, after a moment’s hesita tion, he thrust them into the bosom of his shirt. And then of a sudden he understood what had happened, and his heart gave a bound. The girl had not been flung into the water. She must somehow have becoyne pinned by the hair beneath her horse after her fall; it had come near roll ing on her, and her hair had been cut off to effect her quick release. Sbe was not dead. She had been carried off by the two ruffians. It was nearly dark when Lee crossed the pass a second time. And he went on, under the light of-the moon, scanning the trail ahead of him and the river bank for the kidnapers’ encampment. But hours went by, and he did not come upon it, and only the dark river, with its twisted, desolate banks, and the eternal forest .dis closed themselves. , In the small hours'the wind veered, bringing with it a storm^of icy, pelting rain, which changed to a driving sleet. The whistling pellets stung and whipped his face, and all through the storm Lee continued to struggle on ward. - It was a superb exhibition of the force of will. Hour after hour he went on, until, In the beginning of that hour before the dawn when everything grows still, when the first faintness of the dawn begins to mingle with ’the darkness, be became conscious that the river had widened into a lake, Ohe arm of which, thrust out before him, barred his course. On. either side of this lake the forests had given place to reedy swamp. And, ltiting up his eyes, he saw, upon a low elevatiomTn front of him, the log huts of the Free 'Traders’ camp. Then he knew that the long chase had come to ah end- And with that the man shook the fatigue from him, knowing that he must hold on to all his strength and wit for an hour or two longer, and that what he had to do he must do quickly, craftily, boldly. . '"He did not know how many men were "in the Free Traders’ headquar ters, but he must save the girl, get. her away. . The arm of the lake that was thrust out between the elevation and the end of the trail was no mope than two hun dred yards, if as much, in width. Nice job, tackling the 'Free Traders’ camp all alone! But does he find the girl? (t o b e: c o n t in u e d .)

Every one likes them, and one of the main reasons is that they make successful backgrounds for all sorts of pretty and distinctive furbelows and colorful ac cessories Of course, collars and cuffs offer first and most lmpoytant. aid to the plain frock which Is seeking distinc tion. A variety of collar and cuff sets will assure a. long and 'successful career to the simplest of dresses, and these sets are- at hand in a wide vari ety of materials and new designs. For tailored and morning frocks, plain and striped linen In natural and other back grounds are shown. The plain linens are sometimes finished with very- nar row duny Iace edging, or with em broidery in one- or more colors, but just as often they are unadorned. Striped linens for sports or day dresses are usually touched up with stitched bands and rows of tiny buttons. There are many lace sets and batiste or linen sets, with eyelet work, which are al ways good style, and added to these are sets made of ribbons, Including plaid ribbons with plain borders .Belts I - ♦IV! : .I' SO M E U S E F U L A C C E S S O R IE S , , ' "e"' The crowning point of . .rfZerti Io most knitted tunic Iljw e f!|ct that skirt and over all “ bc " orn separately.

Tomato growers In the Middle At lantic and'Middle Western states may greatly reduce their losses from leaf- spot, or blight, by following the prac tices recommended in Department Bul letin 1288, The Control of Tomato Leaf-Spot, by Fred J. Pritchard and W. S. Porte," recently Issued by the United States Department of Agricul ture. The disease, which, in the United States, causes the commercial growers an estimated annual loss of 250,000'tons of tomatoes, is widely dis tributed east of the Itocky mountains. Because spore formation of this fungus takes. place only at tempera tures between 59 and 80.5 degrees F„ and because the disease develops best only within a temperature range of 73 to 78 degrees F., it Is relatively unimportant "In the northern states and in the far South. Because It thrives best In a moist atmosphere, It Is more abundant. In Maryland, Virginia, and the adjoining coast states than in the Inland parts of the same temperature belt. Mixtures iToo Expensive. In the past bordeaux or other copper spray mixtures have given the best control of leaf-spot, hut profits have not always been increased enough to justify the expense. Tlie bulletin sug gests that a more effective and eco nomical method of control lies In the use of modified field practices. Good results have been obtained by setting out large, stocky, well-hardened plants early In the spring. Since the fungus does not produce spores at low tem peratures the disease will not begin to do damage In this region before the latter hglf of June and for that rea son these early plants escape more leaf-spot than the small ones that are commonly set late. Plants of the de sirable kind at least six weeks old can be produced cheaply outdoors In the South and shipped north at the right time for planting. In 1923 more than. 30,000,000 "southern-grown tomato plants were shipped into Indiana and a considerable number Into the East ern states. Some of the larger north ern companies manufacturing tomato products are growing their own plants in the South, In order to obtain healthy plants of suitable size and age. The Indiscriminate purchase of southern stock of, unknown history cannot be reeo,mtnended, because of the attendant danger of introducing wilt and root-knot. Thete is need of a system of plant certification to pro tect the careful southern grower and the northern purchaser against this danger. Fungus Prevented. The fungus can be largely prevented from over-wintering by plowing under the old tomato vines.In the fall. The vines must be thoroughly covered to. kill all the fungus on them and this can be accomplished by first cutting them wltii a disk and by using a weed liook on the plow dr a weed hook and Jointer. The fungus also grows and produces spores on dead weeds, grasses, and remains of various crops, especially cornstalks. By keeping these dead materials covered with soil and by destroying such plants as the horsenettle, groundcherry, jimsonweed and- nightshade and by burning dead weeds and grasses along the fence rows and other waste places, the dis ease can be well controlled.

Tlils makes it difficult for the manufacturers to label' their product as to its percentage pf Ingredients In accordance with the federal insecticide and fungicide act, and the consumer has no assurance that the product he is obtaining will be efficient. The United States De partment' of Agriculture has under taken some tests and investigations to determine the extent of such losses and Indicate the most suitable type of container which would make possible, the marketing of a more uniform and standard product The .findings of the investigators so far have been published in Department Bulletin 1312, just issued by the United States Department. of Agriculture.'

( S A N IT A T IO N U R G E D T O F IG H T D IS E A S E P lo w in g E a rly fo r S oy B ean s Is F a v o re d P la n Success ,with soy beans depends more upon a good seedbed than is true of any other field crop. From a long study of soy beans at the Missouri ex periment station and on farms over the state, C. Carter urges early plowing In case it was not done In the fall. Soy beans cannot compete with weeds, hence the great Importance of killing off as many weeds as possible before the soys come up. Tliis is ac complished by working the ground at least twice before planting, once three or four weeks before and once ahead of the planter. - For the greater part of Missouri and similar latitudes, the last week in May or the first week in- June Is the best time to plant soy beans. The beans do very poorly in cold or dry soil so there is always danger of die weeds getting ahead of them. A properly prepared seedbed is more important than two weeks of time at the plant ing season. F u rn ish F u e l to K eep ~ F o w ls W a rm in W in te r Hens have more work to do in order to lay eggs In winter than any other time of year. For one tfting, -feed must furnish fuel for keeping them warm. To manufacture whites, yolks and shells of eggs requires a healthy body supplied with. certain food ele ments which hens naturally pick up in the spring and summer. One of these important food ele ments or rather-a number of them have been found to be contained in butter milk and similar food elements are easy to supply in the laying mash by the addition of 10 per cent or more of dried buttermilk. A ration consisting of 25 pounds wheat bran, 25 pounds Standard mid dlings, 30 pounds cornmeal, 5 pounds bonemeal and 15 pounds dried butter milk "has given fine results. In feed ing, the laying mash should be kept before the flock all the time and should be supplemented by feeding scratch grain twice a. day. C lover W ill -Do W ell if G iven R e a l G ood C h an ce Every farmer likes to look at a good field, of clover, especially on his own farm’. Older men tell us of the time when clover grew naturally and all that was necessary for a success ful “catch" was jusi to sow the seed. But' many years of cropping . have brought about far-reaching changes in the soil. Lime is continually getting away In the drainage water, in crops sold off the farm, and in the bones of animals. Phosphorus—never very plentiful even in virgin soils—has been reduced by cropping and by live stock until today it is the limiting element In most soils. ’ With these factors in mind, it is not hard to see-why clover fails so often, for clover needs lots of lime, and It never does well unless plenty of phos phorus is present. Tq be sure, many other reasons a Ce often given for clover failure—but clover will do well if given a real chance. Dr. V. A. Moore of the New Tork state veterinary college at Cornell uni versity says that the best way as yet known to fight" the poultry plague which has alarmed so many poultry- men is by thorough and adequate sani tation. No remedy Is known for sick fowls, nor is any drug known that can be given to healthy ones "to im munize them. With these facts in mind, Doctor Moore offers the following, suggestions to poultry growers to help them: in fighting this swiftly working malady: Keep houses clean and well ventilated, and feed no garbage containing raw chicken flesh or viscera. At least .one ■ outbreak was started from feeding hens Infected viscera. Be sure that any new fowls come from a healthy source, I and isolate newly purchased fowls In a separate house for at least ten days before they are placed In the home ! flock". Watch all poultry carefully. Itemove any stCk ones promptly and thoroughly clean and disinfect the place. Burn or bury dead fowls. CJean and disinfect all used poultry crates brought on the premises. Cats and. dogs should not pass from one poultry house or farm to anotheiyand owners, attendants, or other persons should not go from fiirms on’ which fowl plague exists .to other poultry farms or houses. Take precautions to prevent the virus from being brought to the premises on Implements, cloth ing or animals, ana if the virus should gain entrance, keep It from getting away and into other flocks. AU in fected poultry houses should be cleaned, the litter burned or burled and the floors, r&osts, feeding and wa tering dishes nod nests disinfected. In describing the symptoms of the disease, he sajs the head hangs down, the comb and wattles become bluish In color, and the temperature, which at first islilgb, drops to subnormal. TIie noseband intestines discharge,, and this matter Is heavily charged with the virus .causing the disease. As the plague Is reported to be more active In summer than in winter, It Is Impor tant . that its spread be checked and the virus destroyed as soon as pos sible. The main thing, says Doctor Moore, is to destroy diseased birds and keep healthy fowls away from them, either before or after death. More and more house wives are turning to Snow King Bakin# Powder.

By that time ft is an easy matter to detect the infertile egg. A cardboard with a round hole about an IfIcli in diameter cut In the center makes a good egg tester. The room should be dark excepting for the light used In testing.. The cardboard should be field between the operator and the light and the eggs placed one at a time before the small hole In the card board. The germ will then be easily located. The dead germ Is readily distin guished from the fIive germ, as tt will show a grayish, lifeless appearance. •The infertile egg will' appear as dear as an ordinarily fresii egg. Gn the other hand, the fertile egg will show a dark spot in the center, with numerous blood vessels radiating from it. Tlie eggs that do pot show a live genn should ofoourse be removed. It is advisable to test again about the fourteenth day. as sometimes the germ dies In the course-of develop ment Such eggs should also be- re moved at once, as decay is very rapid and frequently they cause changes In the temperature of the incubator. S electin g C lean G ro u n d fo r G ard en s Is F a v o re d It is a sad mistake to select a weedy, grassy patch of ground ifor the garden, thinking to give it good culture and get tid of the weeds and grass. In the first place, such, soil is always badly infested with grubs, cutworms, wire- worms and other pests that breed m grass. Tliese lack food when the weeds and grass are kept1 down, and feed on the plants-with disastrous re sults. If it is a dry year you may be able to keep the weeds In check, but a wet year will give you a' run for your money. It.is. almost an impossi ble, task to keep a- rich garden dean if It has. been overrun with weeds for a year or so when wet weather givea them its backing: They seem to spring up full size a night ' G u in ea H e n s A re -W ild Guinea hens usually are too wild to be set anywhere,, except in 'the nest where they have become broody, and often such a nest is unsafe. Because of these disadvantages and the fact that guinea hens do not make the most satisfactory mothers for guinea chicks,- !Ordinary, hens are most often used to do both the incubating and the brood ing, at least until late in the summer, when the guinea hens often are allowed- to sit and’raise a brood without much ■attention being given them. - '-i, P o w l t r y F a c t s Chickens should be put on the mar ket as soon as they are ready. v * * * One might better hold stock In a wildcat scheme than to buy feed for poor layers.

Contributions . for the five years . represent nearly four times as much as was given. in the preceding five years to missions, education and be nevolences, the offerings for the pre vious live years being $15,164,345.00. j : Campaign Gains Set Forth ■ Other gains-of the Campaign period Include the organization of 1,990 new ’churches; baptism of 950,943' con verts; organization of 2,913 Sunday schools with a gain of 445,781 pupils; |an increase .of\ $52,847,268.00 ' in the Value of local church property and contributions to local church objects, In addition to Campaign funds of $104,673,560.00. ' I In the special departments of work fostered by the Campaign the follow ing typical results are noted: 265,000 persons baptized by state mission workers; 225,000 converts baptized by representatives of the .Home Mission Board; entrance into 8 new countries and the doubling of forces on the for eign fields by the Foreign Mission -Board; putting nearly as much money into the denominational schools as had been invested there in all the years before the Campaign was launched; Increasing the number of Baptist hospitals in the South from 12 to 24’and giving $1,000,000 in free medical and surgical service to. the deserving poor; raising the number of Baptist orphanages from 17 to 19 and- caring for 4,000 homeless boys and girls and aiding more than 1,000 aged, worn-out preachers and their dependent ones. New Program Projected With the 75 Million Campaign fin ished, Southern Baptists have now entered upon the 1925 Program which embraces the support of'state, home and foreign missions, Christian edu cation, hospitals, orphanages and ministerial relief, on the basis of year ly rather than a five-year's subscrip tion. It is. hoped to raise this year a minimum of- $15,000,000 , among Southern Baptists for these causes or the equivalent of the goal for a single year in the former movement. It is pointed out that only' 37% per cent of the members of BapUgi churches of the South had a definite share In the support of the 75 Million Campaign. It is the ideal of the 1925 Program to enlist every member of - every church in giving at his Tegu- ■ Iar church services, to every cause, according to his ability, through ' hid church treasury. - ■ With the hope *ot more fully enlist ing the. Baptist men of the South. In definite 'Christian service, Dr.: J. T. Henderson of Knoxville, secretary of the LaymenTs Missionary Movement of the Southern Baptist Convention, is ■promoting a series of men's confer ences In the. majority of the Southern -states during March.- In this way it is hoped'tq bring before the men the needs oit all religious • enterprises fostered by. Southern Baptists and, haying informed them, then enlist them In.adequate support of all these gauges. inmnmmnnmiwimtimnnunmuwr rtiiniiimiiTitniiimiiiiimnma I f y o u w a n t y o u r h e n s t o l a y b e h a p p y , t h e r e i s n o t h i n g s o a s Minor.

SenatorJurueyhas been telling 0„ some of our folks in Raleigh, a id if " e Ket tlle Senator he doesn’t (JjjllIc so highly of some Iredell c unity officers. The Senate was debating a bill which proposed a bonus of $40 to officers bringing in a copper still and securing the conviction of oper ators. the officers to get $20 for the Siill w ithout the operators. Im- incdiadcly Senators began to ob ject 011 toe ground that the busi- - ness is commercialized for profit rather than to secure law enforce ment. and there were allegations that stills are planted by thrifty officials, which same isn’t news. Seui-tor Everett, of Pitt, thought the officers should have some en- c.uragem ent, “ as tne moral- influ ence against bootleggers isn’t as strong as against arson and mur der.” In other words, the Pitt Senator thought it necessary to give ail e x tra bonus to insure ac tivitv against bootleggers. But’ Senator Mark Squires, county • of Caldwell, right for once, retorted that he d id n 't think much of an of- fi.vi receiving an extra reward for doing his sw orn duty, and Marcus centered the bull’s eye w ith that,, a 1 lie also did with the assertion that par iug officefs $20 for bring ing in a ten can that cost $1.50. peunitting them to clear $18.50 on the deal, was “ the biggest fool thing ever heard of.” If we' get the Caldwell Senator he had in the hack of his mind an idea that some of the officers buy and, plant the tin can, on which they make the Si S. 50 profit. Senatpr Jiirnev hav.-. iug joined in the opposition, is thus quoted by the Raleigh corre spondent of the Greensboro News: Senator Jurnev1 of Iredell, point ed out the ineentive in his county for officers to use fraud to convict IDI to stretch the truth. He told of two officers who were thinking of “framing” man by “ planting” a quart in his confiscatinjg the car and thus obtaining to $50 reward offered in his county for a car with whisky therein. As we get the Senator, ’ the Ire dell officers he had in mind were only “ th in k iu g ” of framing, but the fact that it has occured to them indicates the seriousness -of such in itters. The Senator is aware of the danger of offering officers too much prize money to be officious and he went to Raleigh'disposed to curtail th e prize busiuess in Iredell to some e x te n t Mecklenburg for instance, doesn’t go quite as far as I r>.dell in the matter of bonuses and the like.—Statesville Daily. Coolidge’s First Salary Check. The first salary check of Calvin Coolidge as President of the United States had just been brought to him It was a groat check—$6,250 for a single month. It had taken his father years to earm so large sum. It was more than six times as ' much as he himself had received as Vice President Compared with wbat he had earned in his earilier career, it seamed little less than a fortunate. Mr. Coolidge looked at the check for a considerable period, but, as is his custom, he said nothing. He con tinued to be silent until the mes- ssdger had passed out and was a . oout to close the door. It was then the President’s emotions overpower him. He could not remain silent. With warmth arid loquacity: quite unaffected, he uttered these words, ‘come again.’ ”—Ex.? -ri;- _ Better Business.

Monroe Enquirer Noah Webster says a wink is to give a hint or imitation by a mo tiou of lhe eyelids. Asayoungster I attended a co-ed school where it was against the rules to talk to the girls during schools hours. Being an apt pupil, it was not longbefore I learued much of the significance of the language of the human eye, and tojthis good day I can use ei ther optic with equal facility. A slow aud deliberated wink meant “ I get you;” , medium, "Alright, kid,” aud a short snappy one, “ We’re both devilish,” and soon. But the other day, while sojourn ing in another town for. a short while, a handsome matron glanced up' and deliberately winked. I was on.the point of returning blink for wink, when lo, and behold, just in time it was discovered the poor woman had a “cast” in her good right eye and couldn't help herself. She too. in her younger days had had attend a school where boys and girls predominated and too long aud severe employment Ox the eve muscles at last because a habit and the- habit resulted iu an incurable malady, and oue which occulists could not cure Moral—Girls, do not wink at the boys more than is necessary. 5----:-----------*v Freedom of Thought.

Inauguration Day’s In The Coun try’s Past; Peering back through the vista of .years—hack through the tuaugii-; ration of Grant, Lincoln, Monroe,- Jackson, Madsou, Jefferson, Wash-; iugton aud other, of the notable President of the United States— one finds much of the notable and color. Indeed, a close study of the various ceremonials attending in ductions into the presidential office is more or less a survey of the gra dual development of the nation and its changing customs and senti- meuts. Washington was inaugurated iu New York in 1789 for his first term, and traveled from Mont Vernon by tiorseback and horse-drawn coach es. For his second term Washing ton’was inaugurated iu Philadel phia. In the meantime the Dis trict of' Columbia was proposed, but the project had not become an accomplished fact at the beginning of the term of John Adams, so he also was inaugurated iu Pbilaheb phia. When Jefferson was elected the uew Federal capital had been laid out and the named Washing ton aud the “sage of Mouticello” was the first to be installed there. Jefferson rode to- Washington on horseback from Monticello, and was escorted into the city by a troop of cavalry. Alone he rode in a carrriage to the Capital. About 1,000 people viewed his--’ inaugura tion. The next inauguration, that of AIadison, is said to have been at*' tended by 10,000 people. Presid- deut Monroe, was the first to take the oath of office put of -doors.: y Jo'bn'guifl^^^d'anis^Tfiah?* gurated iu one of the moat elabo rate ceremonies of its kind. The inauguration of Andrew J ackson in 1829 probably would have been more elaborate had not the incom ing President baen in mourning for his wife. He rode to the Capita! ill a carriage constructed from the hull of the old frigate Constitution. President Van Buren’s inaugura tion was attehted by 20,000.: per sons. Citizen’s soldiery participated in such ceremonies for the 'first time at the inauguration of • William Henry Harrison. Tyler, who suc ceeded Harrison within a month, took the oath priyaleiy without ceremony or display of any kind while the county was in mourning. President Polk 'appears' to have been the first’to feel the discomforts of being inaugurated in the open air iu a vigorous spring blizzard. President Taylor’s inauguration was the first tofall. on-March 5th. Millard Fillmore, who became Pre- through-the death of Taylor suc ceeded to the office without cere mony of any kind, although he took - the oath .before Congress. Pierce and Buchanau were inaugu rated with the usual ceremonies. . Lincoln’s first inauguration no table in many respects. The couu- try, on the. verge of civil war, trem bled. with mixed emotions. Lin coln’s friends were filled with ap prehensions for his safety. For the first time in America iu’augural troops were ordered to the Capitol. Lincoln’s second inauguration re flected the great war in which the country was locked. The indue tion of Andrew Johnsou after Lin coln’s assassination was conducted iu a room in a hotel without oslen- ation." : ■ ‘ Graut catneinto'office with, the greatest spetacular displav.seen up to that time. President Hayes,was surrounded with elaborate precau tions for :his personal safety, , be cause of iuthnse feeling engendered bv the celebrated controversy with Tilden Garfield’s inauguration was without unsual incident. Pre sident Arthur nr succeeding the martyred Garfield, took the oath JEwice, first, at home m New York ud again at the Capital. Ideal eatber marked Cleveland’s first inauguration, but Harrison 'was lot so fortunate with the weather ^r his inauguration noi was Cleve- nd the second time. McKinley ad a“beautiful for his inaugura tion but a rainy one for his second, posevelt’s inauguration was the [ccasion for a great demonstration. IjMft come in with a howiing bliz- ird.

Trade Influence.

We-Wtll learn more a- bout their problems,' we will all come to understand something of the common interests of all the citi zens of this entire county. . ’One of the greatest problems of this:con'ntry is ,to create a better and more friendly spirit between town and county,” said a promin ent speaker not long ago. He ar giied that the envy, animosity, and suspicion that keeps farmers and citizens of small towns separated now, is oue of the greatest of a I foes of true progress in our country Tbefarm er and the business man with whom he deals have one great interest in common—namely to build up a more prosperous agricul tural community, and to make life richer,: happier, and more comfor table for all concerned. To realize this aim, the farmer aud the small city business man must work hand in hand.

The country seems to be safe for a little while at least, as Congress has adjourned, and the North Carolina legislature has quit busi ness for another two years. More than 1400 new laws weTe enacted by the late North Carolina legislature and the boys feel that they earned every cent they got and a good deal that they didn’t g et • - ‘Our Vice-President. Charles G. Dawes, slipped into Washington the day before the inauguration with twelve pipes in Kis pocket, which no doubt means that he b going to do his part’ in making Prince Albert famous. A spirit of cu-oucration is needed in Davie county. The town and country people should work to gether for the upbuilding of the county. Anything that will helj the people in the country will help the people in town and vice-verse. The rural letter carrieis, postal clerks, etc., are to he cougpatulat ed on securing a nice little raise in their salaries amounting to $300 per year. Well, the boys earn all they get and deserve even more, for they have a pretty tough job, es pecially during groundhog weather. Calvin Coolidge and Charles Dawes have been sworn in as Pre sideut and Vice-President of tin biggest and best country in the world. The people have confidence in these men and there is no reasor why the next four years shouldn’t be the best in the history of the country. The best thing the North Caro lina legislature did was to kill the bill creating a bunch of new judges and solicitors. We have all* the judges now that North Carolina need-. If they will stay on their- jobs six days a week for the nex six months there will be 110 con gested court dockets in this state. The countycommissionersdid a wise thing last .week they secured the service of County Agent George Evans for the coming year. Mr. Evans is one of the best farm de monstration men in the south aud during his two years work in Davie county he has accomplished much for the farmers aud stock raisers. The Record is mighty glad that Mr. Evans is going to remain on this important work in Divie. The very fellows that cussed out Josiali William Bailey last summer are the ones that are cussing Angus Wilton McLean now. Bailey preached economy -and Governor McLean seems to be practicing it. Our opinion of Mr. McLean has gone up at least one- hundred ' per cent, since lie took office. He seems, to be a level-headed business m-iti who believes in economy, and in using a Ford car.

Buenos Aires.—A dispatch to La Nacion from Rio Janeiro says the known casualites in Friday’s explosion on Caju island, near Nicheroy,' are eight dead and 600 injured, but that 300 persons who were on the island have not been accounted for. The hospitals were besiged by per sons who had relatives on the island,- seeking to obtain information about ,them. A large number of families were made homeless in consequence of the destruction of their houses. The explosion was of such force that it caused a partial disintegration of Caju island from which a number of small islets, once ai portion of the main island, are now separated. The Brazilian Lloyd Steamship com pany’s coal heps on nearby Conception island caught flre, causing consider able further damage. All the buildings on this island were razed by the ex plosion on Caju island, and it is believ ed there were many casualties there. Invest Near Miami. •Miami, F.la.—A party of Nortern capitalists, headed by K Baiscom Slemp former secretary to President Coolidge, made an initial investment of $1,000,- 000 in 50,000 acres of land near here, which will be held for development purposes.

Frifedrich Ebert, the former saddle-maker of Heidleberg, who succeeded Kaiser Wilhelm as the chief executive of •Germany and steadied the new re public through six stormy years.

His system had been undermined by. an .attack of influenza preceding the operation and his heart was not equal to the burden' imposed which spread'throughout his system. A6ENTS MAY SEARCH AUTOS SUPREME COURT HOLDS WAR. RANT NOT NECESSARY; MUST HAVE EVIDENCE. Washington. — Federal prohibition agents lawfully may stop automobiles and other vehicles and search them for contraband liquor without a war rant, the supreme court decided in a case from Michigan, brought by George Carroll and John Kiro. In another .' liquor case,- brought from Georgia by Sir Samuels, the ccurt held that states under the con stitution would make unlawful the possession of liquor acquired legally before enactment of the federal pro hibition act. Chief Justice Taft dleivered the opinions in both cases, Justices Mc- Reynolds and Sutherland dissenting in the former, and Justice Butler in the latter. •Declaring that “it would be intoler able and unreasonable if a prohibition agent were authorized to stop every automobile on the chance of finding liquor,” Chief Justice Taft asserted that “those lawfully within the coun try entitled to use the public highways have a right to free passage without interruption or search unless there is known to a competent, official author ized search, probable cause for believ ing that their vehicles are carrying contraband or illegal merchandise.” . ■ It was the intent of congress how ever, to make a distinction between the necessity tor a search warrant in the searching of private dwellings and of automobiles, the chief justice stat ed, and that distinction was constitu tional. There is no provision in the constitution which denounces all searches or seizures without a war rant, he said, adding that it prohibits' only “unreasonable” searches or seiz ures. "The guaranty-of freedom from un reasonable searches and seizures has been construed practically since - the beginning of the government,” he ex plained, “as recognizing a necessary difference between a search of a store, dwelling house or other structure in respect of which a proper official war rant Teadily may be obtained and a search of as hip, motor boat, wagot. or automobile for contraband goods where it is not practicable to secure a warrant because the vehicle can be quickly moved out of the locality or jurisduction in which the warrant must be sought.” ' The mere manufacture of liquor can do little to defeat the prohbition amendment unless the liquor can be distributed for illegal sale and use, the court asserted, and for that reason it was necessary that the transportation of the contraband, be prevented. Lynchburgers Die at Crossing. Lynchburg, Va.—Ben Morgan, 50, was instantly killed and his brother, Kit ,Morgan, 48, fatally hurt at the Broad strete crossing of the South ern railroad in Altavista, when the automobile in which tijey were riding was struck by a through northbound freight train.

McLean in an un expected special message to the Gen eral Assembly which was generally regarded as foreshadowing a sharp cut in the Budget Commission”s recom mendations for an annual appropria tion of $2,100;000 for the State equalize ing fund for public schools. The specific recommendation con tained in the Governor's message, a single typewritten page, was for the appointment of a commission of twelve to study the whole school situation. With characteristic promptness the Governor had already had prepared a bill embodying the recommendation and the measure was introduced by Senator A. A. F. Seawell, of Lee. The bill calls for a commission of twelve on which officials connected with State departments and institutions will be eligible to serve and full auth ority is given for a sweeping investi gation into not, only the equalization fund but every phase of the cost of institutions of higher education as the public school system. An inquiry into the question of the equlization fund was conducted last fall by a legislative commission head ed by Representative N. A. Townsend, of Harnett, now chairman of the House Finance Committee. That com mission reported that it would be necessary to revise, for purposes of school equilization found property valuation Ift the counties, which have become very unequal since the Revalu ation Act of 1919 was followed by the county control act of 1921. The commission recommended a minimum of $2,600,000 for next year and 2,850,000 for the following year. However this amount was slasfegd materially by the Budget Commisssion and a still further reduction has been predicted, since the House passed a revenue bill raising only $12,000,000 as against budget recommendations of $14,000,000. Cut Budget to 12 Million. While members of the -senate and house appropriations committee have definitely determined to cut the state budget to $12,000,000 in the committee draft of the appropriations bill, Chair man Walter Murphy, of the house com mittee, is waging a singlehanded fight for a measure that will carry fourteen millions, the amount Tecommended by the legislative budget commission: Mr. Murphy, it was stated, wants to draw the appropriations bill to include every item proposed by the budget commission and throw the responsibil ity upon the house ot cutting off the twp millions necessary to meet the revenue measure. In that he is meet ing with the opposition of all the mem bers of the sub committee which has -been handling the job in lieu of the full ,committees. Mr. Murphy’s fellow townsman, Sen ator Walter Woodson, of Salisbury, iW1Iio is chairman ot the senate appro priations committee, announced that the draftors of the appropriations ' measure are doing “their best” to knock off two millions from the budget report. * Thomasville Man Is Killed. , Winston-Salem. — Harry Proctor, single, twenty-six years old, of Thom- asviile, was killed near the city Me morial Hospital. ‘ He was riding In an automobile driven by Charles Johnson, also of Thomasville.

C. JIM RATHWAY SYNOPSIS.—-Lee Anderson. Royal Canadian Mounted Police ser geant, is sent to Stony ranse to arrest a man named Pelly for murder. He is also Instructed to look after Jim Rathway. reputed head of the "Free Traders,” illicit liquor runners. At Little Palls he finds Pelly Is credited with having found a gold mine, and is missing:. At the hotel appears a girl, obviously out of place In the rough surroundings. A half- breed, Pierre, and a companion. "Shorty,” annoy the girl. An derson interferes in her behalf. The girl sets out for Slston Lake, which is also Anderson’s objec tive. He overtakes her and the two mei\ with whom he had trouble the'night before. She is suspicious of him and the-, two men are hostile. Pierre and Shorty ride on, Anderson and the girl following. Jn the hills the road is blown up. before and behind the two. Anderson, with his horse, is hurled down the moun tain side, senseless. Recovering consciousness, Andersoii finds the girl has disappeared, but he concludes she is alive and probably in the power of Pierre and Shorty. On foot he makes his way to Siston Lake. CHAPTER V—Continued Satisfying himself that there was no Wayi of approach except by water, un less there existed Some trail across the ewatups, which there was no time to 8nd, Lee waded into the lake, then swam. The current ran strong.; the shock of the icy water at first numbed, then invigorated him. It cleared the doubts and fears of night from his brain. Swimming diagonally against the cur rent, in a few minutes Lee had reached the flat terrain -at the base of the promontory. He waded ashore, shaking himself like a dog. On the terrain were heaped great mounds of waste and garbage from the encampment above; piles of disintegrating cans, rotting cases, in numerable bottles partly covered with the silt and protruding from it the accumulation of a long period. Looking through the mist. Lee per ceived a small York boat, of the kind used universally between Hudson’s bay and the Mackenzie, riding moored against the rocky edge of the promon tory some distance away. The elevation, long, low, and flat, formed an ideal fortress; with the only approach apparently by water, it was evident that it would be a formid able proposition for any body of the police to attack, in the event of de fense. Lee began to make his way across the terrain, keeping under the shelter of the cliff to escape observation from, the huts above. It was growing light now, and he could see the surround ings clearly. He reached the end of the patch of ground without coming upon any place by which it might be possible to ascend to the summit of . the promontory. He hurried back, doubling on his tracks, examining the cliff in the other direction. He reached the other side of the flat terrain, only to Cnd that the elevation presented the same insur mountable flank to him everywhere. But then of a sudden he realized that the Xork boat must be drawn np at the point of entrance. And it was with this that he must make his flight with the girl, beaching the boat across the water somewhere, taking to the forests. And without hesitation he took to Athe water again and swam with steady strokes toward it. In two or three minutes be had gained its side, y The kidnapers must have left Qieir horses at some refuge or rendezvous in the forest and brought the girl by boat to Siston lake. . And it was evident that they could not have arrived so much as an hour before. The York boat was moored opposite a cleft In the great dome of the prom ontory, which offered easy access .to the summit. .Lee waded ashore once more. But before attempting the as cent he drew his automatic from its holster and examined it. The holster was lined with waterproof, and only a few drops glistened upon the surface of the weapon. Scrapabllng np the acclivity, Lee saw the two huts among the trees im mediately overhead. He scrambled up the low wall of rocks, and was about to stepvon to the elevation when of a sudden a man came out of the farther hut and made his way toward the nearer one. Lee ducked his head down just in time to escape detection, and through the interstices between the bowlders he watched the man until he had en tered the hut immediately above him. He looked about forty years of -age. He was shorter than Lee, but appar ently of great strength. He had an untrlmmed black beard, he walked with bunched shoulders, and there was a look of singular ferocity and cunning on his face. ... A dangerous, treacherous customer, Lee thought. Rathwayi - When he had disappeared within the hut Lee stood up. Craning over the rocks, he. ,could just catch a glimpse of the Interior.-' He saw the man standing over what looked like "a camp bed, on ■'which he could-dis tinguish the head and shouldfers of a girl, lying perfectly still. Lee's heart leaped. He gripped his automatic, Ievglled itA single'shot from where he stood, well aimed, would be sufficient; / And at that moment instinct and de sire struggled with discipline as never before, with the maxim inculcated dur ing his eight years of service, never to take life except when life is in inn-, mediate danger. , Then discipline won. Lee let the muzzle djop. And at that moment he beard the growling voice of the man, and the an swer of a third person Inside the hut— a woman. The words were Inaudible, *and now, hesitating no longer, Lee scrambled over the rocky ridge and made his way toward the door obliquely, so as to re main concealed from the sight of those within. The man’s voice rose in a falsetto snarl. “What do I mean to do with her? What would I do with her? She’s mine, ain’t she?” "And what about me?” Low as the voice was, restrained, yet passionate, something about it sent a sudden shiver through Lee, and for a few. mo menta he could only remain a help less listener. “You?” he la’ughed.. “You can stay on here’s long as you want to, I guess. There’s Pierre and Shorty if you want a man—” , “You coward!” Her voice was vi brant with indignation. “I tell you you’ve made a mistake in bringing that girl here. You’ll regret it. That mine doesn’t exist. And when she finds you’ve fooled her, what are you going to do?” “So we’re jealous, are we? Well, I’ve been tired of you for a long time,” he jeered. “Jim—” There was desperate plead ing in the woman’s tones—“I gave up all for you. Let her go. Don’t cast me off. I love you, Jim—” And now Lee knew. A mist trembled before his eyes, and, gripping his auto matic, he sprang forward to the door. He must have shouted, though he was unconscious of everything but tlie desire to get Rathway by the throat. Wheeling, Rathway swore, and then, heedless of Lee’s pistol, leaped. 1 But in the moment before they closed, Lee saw the woman’s face and knew her for his dead love, who had broken his life and changed it utterly —Estelle. Lee did not shoot. Instinctively he obeyed that unwritten law of the po lice tradition’ not to take life save in the last extremity. But the sight of this sinister figure, the wholly incredible presence there of Estelle, the woman who had wrecked his life,- and the girl lying un conscious on the bed in this man’s power, aroused in Lee’s heart a sleep ing devil of whose existence he had hardly been aWare at any time in his life before. . He was conscious only of a mad de sire to kill, but to till with nature’s own weapons, in obedience to man’s instinctive law. Clubbing bis automatic, Lee leaped to meet Rathway’s charge, and breast to breast they met, rebounding like balls of rubber. Rathway’s hand shot out and'grasped Lee’s wrist before the weapon descended. Then, interlocked, they stood almost motionless, matched so evenly that neither budged an Inch before the other for a full minute. Rathway’s sneering face was up turned to Lee’s. Malice and hate gleamed from his bloodshot eyes. Be side them stood Estelle, with her hands A Single Shot From Where He Stood, Well Aimed, Would Be Sufficient, still clasped in the gesture that she had made at the moment of Lee’s inter vention, struck dumb and motionless tfith terror and amazement. Ratliway was proving himself the stronger. Malice and hate became tri umph; derision. L,ee’s pistol hand was being bent back. Lee adapted himself with <juick Instinct to the .discovery that he was the weaker in arm and shoulder muscles. As Rathway’s body slowly assumed a forward tilt, shifting his . center of gravity, Lee suddenly drove his knee into the back of Rath way, causing the.man to stumble for ward. The impetus of the .body pro jected against him sent the pistol fly- Ing’out of Lee’s bind; but Lee, In the moment of Rathway’s loss of (equipoise, drove his Bsf home Into his'i&c£':si>Ut- tlng his Ups and sending tilm reeling, - ’ In an Instant they were together again, deiivertng and receiving a «nc- V B y V ic to r R o u s s e a u (Copyright by W.\ G. Chapman.), WNU Service. cession of pile-driver blows that _fell like flails upon each other’s faces and bodies. They clinched, rebounded, clinched again; then of a sudden Rath- way got home a furious kick to the groin that sent. Lee stumbling. For the first time Estelle screamed, and that aroused Lee to the conscious ness that he must finish his enemy almost immediately, before aid arrived. He shook away the film that was1 creep ing over his eyes, and, sick and nau seated from the kick, he closed with Rathway again. They went to the floor of the hut together, and struggled there like two dogs in the ,dirt. There was no longer any attempt at fisticuffs.' Ttie primitive instinct to rend and tear possessed both of them equally. They scrambled about the floor of the hut, clawing at each oth er’s throats. Lee got Rathway's beard in his right hand, and. with his left began smashing at his nose and lips; Rathway bellowed, his hands closed oft Lee’s throat, clung there, worrying him like a bulldog. Lee felt that he was fainting. He was. slowly forced over; Rathway’s fingers closed on his neck. The two tightened, and the walls of the hut began to waver. Lee’s trachea flattened, bis lungs felt as if they would burst. Rathway grinned dia bolically Into his face; his beard like some foul fungus swept it Lee flung his arms out instinctively to breathe. One of his hands encountered some thing. It was the pistol. Lee’s fingers closed on It. And; as if he concentrated all that was left of himself in his left hand, he raised the weapon and brought It crashing down upon Rathway’s skull. • Instantly Rathway's clutch relaxed, his eyes glazed, as chicken’s eyes glaze at the moment of deathv The man’s head dropped foolishly 'forward on Lee’s breast. A stream of curses was cut oft in foolish mutterings. Lee struggled to his feet and stood gasping for breath, while Rathway, mumbling stupidly, swayed to and fro upon his knees on the floor of the hut Suddenly Estelle appeared to, be galvanized into life. With a low cry she ran to Rathway’s side, knelt down by him, and put her arms about him. She drew his head down on her knees and began chafing his bands. She looked at Lee. in bitter hate. “Haven’t you done me wrong enough in the past, that you should come here to kill my man?” she cried. “Do you think you can arrest him? You couldn’t get a mile from here before you would be captured.” „ But Lee, without paying any atten tion to her, hurried to the bedside, and looked down at the captured girl. She lay there, an unconscious, huddled heap, one knee bent under her. Her face was deathly white, and there was a scalp wound at the back of her head which had been bleeding freely., -She breathed faintly.. Her hair was cut short and jagged about her headi making her look more than ever like boy. Estelle laid Rathway gently down and came'toward Lee with sudden comprehension. "“It’s for her?” she whispered earnestly, laying her hand upon his arm. “You came here to rescue her?” She read the answer In his eyes. “Oh, I’ll help you, I'll help you, then!” she cried wildly. -“You’ll take her away! Trust me, then, and listen to me. There’s no time for explana tion's now. It’s only a miracle of luck you found him alone. Some men are due at any moment In the motor boat Two more have gone to meet them with a message. They’re coming from down the lake. There may be just time to escape them., You must take the York boat You can’t pull It alone against the stream. Keep to the left channel past the island, then run ashore, and' you’ll be safe In the forest wherever you are going. Hurry, hurry!” : Lee made no* audible reply, but his mind automatically registered ,^Es telle’s instructions. He bent over the girl again, raised ber in his arms so that her face rested against iiis shoulder, and carried her out of the hut: - As he turned at the entrance he saw that Rathway had risen to his knees again. Blood was dripping from the wound in his scalp, anfjhe was staring about him in' the eager effort to remember. Lee crossed the open space at a run, scrambled down the descent, placed the girl In the botton) of the boat, and, seizing a pair of . oars, be gan to pull furiously for midstream. The current caught him and sent him whirling along toward' the long, flat, ^ooded Jsland In the middle of'the lake that came into view. In a minute or two, however, the flow of the river, diffused over the whole of the lake, ceased to afford him any appreciable assistance. -The heavy Yorjt boat responded only slightly to the pull of. the single oarsman, seem ing to creep on by inches. Suddenly Rathway appeared tft>on the .promontory,. Estelle beside him, clinging to ,him. He'pushed her from him, shaking his fist at Lee, and his hoarse, furious, bellows came across the water like tie roaring of an en- raged beast^of the- forest. Bor a few mojnents he ; stood 'tlms outlined’ against 'the rising '6un ; then ' he djfr appeared. ' • •, • ' Lee struggled . at the oars. From " / time to time he strained his ears to catch the sounds of the oncoming motor boat. Although the new arrivals would know nothing of his activities at the promontory, he was pretty sure that any solitary oarsman ap pearing In that region would be stopped by them; then he would be at their mercy, for Pierre and Shorty would be members of their party. If once he could round the point of the island, where he would be out of sight. both of the. promontory and of the motor boat coming up the chan nel, he could pull straight for the lake shore, take to the woods, make for the mission, where he meant to leave the girl for safe-keeping. Lee felt his spirits rise. It was a matter only of a half hour. And there were two packs in the boat. Wftli one of these they could live in the forest till she was able to continue the journey.' And, looking down at the unconscious girl, he felt again that odd sense of tender companion ship in his heart for her, fed, perhaps, by the realization that the one thing he had dreaded had not come to pass. He had feared that if ever again he met Estelle the old passion^ for her would flare up in him. Now they had met, and that love of the past-filled him only with wonder, and a vast pity for her, that she should have come to this—to be the discarded companion of an outlaw. He no longer condemned her. ' He no longer resented his wrongs. It was as if a cleansing' sponge had been passed over all that had happened. The left channel between the island and the shore was almost blocked, in places, with reeds and water growth. It was a huge water morass of dead vegetation, nearly half a mile. wide. A few more strokes, and he meant to pull toward the lake’s shore. The pulling had grown to be. an enormous effort. Lee was again con scious of fatigue. He felt drowsy in the increasing warmth of the sun. He could have fallen asleep In a moment But suddenly his senses leaped into activity. From far away he had caught the urgent warning of immi nent danger, the faint put-putting of the motor boat. CHAPTER VI Trapped on thje Island Aod instantly , he began straining at the oars again, redoubling his efforts to gain the shore before the motor boat rounded the point. And of a sudden his attention was attracted by something creeping- along the opposite shore. It was a small canoe and a single man in it— Rathway! It .was impossible not to admire the courage that Inspired , the man after the drubbing he had received. Rath way was, of course, on his way to warn the expected party. 1 Lee drove hard for the left middle channel of the lake. The main body of Siston lake came into view, a vast. expanse of shining water, the shores receding into, the hazy distance, out of which a small, black object be gan to be visible, like a bug skimming the surface. Now the canoe containing Rathway was almost abreast of him, A few more furious pulls—ten, fif teen; now canoe and motor boat and promontory were all hidden behind the point of the island. Lee labored at the oars, turning the York boat’^-head toward the bank. Once there, they would be safe. But his strength was failing him. Curse the clumsy boat, which hardly seemed to move! The putting of the motor engine had grown infernally loud. It added a horror of Its own to that sense of pur suit which makes the bravest man something of a coward, the added hor ror of the fugitive' who hears the dis tant bay of bloodhounds. * Then suddenly the motor stopped'. That.ftieant that tlie canoe had come abreast of it. Rathway Was. passing the intelligence. And the shore was still a hundred yards distant There was no chance of reaching It unobserved. It would be neck and neck for It, and it was doubtful whether Lee could have escaped'alone, much less with 'the girl and the pack to carry. He swung the boat’s blunt nose toward the nearest patch of reeds. Twenty yards! He put-ail his strength into that last effort. Now the peeds were closing s about him. In front of him a little open channel ap peared. Using one shortened oar as a paddle, he drove vigorously, and found himself in temporary safety. A thick wall of reeds extended between him self and open water, rendering the York boat invisible. Then the motor began to roar. The shouts of its occupants became audible. The motor boat had rounded the point. Lee had escaped discovery by the skin of his teeth. And very captiously, ’so as not to betray his. whereabouts by any un due agitation of the reeds, Lee ,pushed the boat toward the Island. EUs plan must now be to drive ashore, trusting to escape detectlon until nightfall and to make the wooded ,shore of the In the darkness. Ttjrough the reeds the marshy fore- shore began to be visible, and a sandy spit projecting to the water’s edge. Above it' was a hummock overgrown with birch and red spruce; Wtth a tangle of sheep laorel and birch and poplar behind It - Lee. worked1! his heavy boat nolse- toward this. spit. But suddenly be stopped; Ihe motor boat was com ing up the open channel hardly a stone’s throw distant. ■ He could hear Rath^ay in it, bellowing commands to his companions. He could hear the reeds rustling against the boat's side as she forced her passage through them. “They’re not In here!” he heard Rathway say with an oath. ''Qet Into the channel and beat np the island!” Lee, crouching In Jhe stem of the York boat with hls-^tol In his hand, breathed a sigh of relief as the motor boat withdrew. The roar of her en gine began to grow fainter. In a few minutes it had died away. , Lee forced the York boat ashore upon the spit of sand, and stooping, raised the girl in his arms’ and carried her into the shelter of the spruce thicket, where he laid her gently diJwn. For the first time since her injury, he had the opportunity of examining Lee Forced the York Boat Ashore Upon the Spit of Sand, and Stoop ing, Raised the Girl in His Arms and Carried Her Into the Shelter of Spruce Thicket, Where He Laid Her Gently Down. her. Her prolonged unconsciousness alarmed him. But she was beginning to revive 'at last, and, after assuring himself that the pulse beat fairly strong, he pro ceeded to make as thorough an exami nation as possible of her injuries; He turned his examination first to the cut In ber head. He tore strips from his shirt, went down to the water and cleansed them thoroughly; then, returning, he proceeded to: wash ariii bandage it It was a bad gash from a rock, and she had bled a good deal, which was a good thing, relieving the concussion which had no doubt been the cause of the prolonged Insensibil ity. Having ascertained that she seemed to, have received no bodily in juries beyond contusions, Lee exam ined her limbs. He saw 'that one knee hung awry. In a moment he had the gaiter off, and discovered that the joint had been dislocated. - Short of the setting of a broken bone,, there are few operations more painful than the restoration of a joint into position, and Lee prayed fer vently that the girl’s unconsciousness would last until he had put to her service the knowledge which he had acquired with the Canadian army medical corps upon the western front. It was unnerving, .holding that white knee between his hands, so instinct with life, so fragile, delicate, so won derful when viewed as a piece of’ mechanism which he was to manipulate like some clumsy journeyman, called in to repair the work of a master. Fortunately Lee had assisted at precisely that same operation several times in the field; and,\trying to dis regard the moans of pain that came from the girl’s lips as he proceeded, lie fumbled with the displaced bone. But that struggle was'terrible, for the- body of itself knows no dignity. Conscious, Lee knew that the girl would neither have flinched nor: moaned;. but unconscious she could not control the protests of the body, which had to be restrained by some thing almost brutal In its frank vio lence. , But Lee struggled on,-feeling the shaft head of the bone scour the edges of the socket under the cap. A IinaI struggle, the weight of his whole body and shoulders thrown to his task— and suddenly it was accomplished. Anderson faces a pretty, tough proposition. What on earth Is he going to do with this help-, less, girl? . (TO B B CONTINUED.)

I knew it would help me, but I was afraid to try it because people said it would help you to have children and I knew I was haying children fast enough. • But I thought if it would help me it would be better to have a whole house full of children and have good health. I became stronger from taking it and my husband says I look like a live woman instead of a dead one.

In ■ these two- piece ensembles, stylists recognize their opportunity to give expression to a wealth of ideas, and surely, judging from advance spring showings, they are making the most of it.

It is a happy inspiration, this of trimming frocks for little tots In embroideries . which have for their theme Mother Goose and Kate Green away figures. Not only is this method of trimming a success from the artistic viewpoint, but to the children these pictorial decorations serve as a con stant source of entertainment. While the frock of silk which little daughter is wearing in the picture m CHARMING TUNIC FROCK dulging in Intriguing design. To women of fashion these ensemble cos tumes are of special apiSeat, for a skirt and tunic which may be worn together or in other combination at will, is in deed a happy possession. The VOgu^for gay prints is most op portune .when it comes ■ to designing tunic ensembles. These fantastically patterned materials, especially printed crepes, make up handsomely with plain silks or satins, using the latter for the skirt or costume slip over which is posed the below-tbe-knee length blouse. The solid-colored fabric also serves as trimming in manner such as the picture herewith defines. If one so desires, costume slips with plaited flares may be bought separate ly, and for the home dressmaker this simplifies the making of these two- piece costumes. Furthermore, it is an Incentive to own a number of slips, thus varying color effects and general effect. The model illustrated features an interesting ideu,' that of trimming the underarm seam. One of fashion’s di versions, this season, is to elaborate herewith would be pretty even if it did not have an embroidery design of windmill and cunning child figures, anyone who has an eye for the beau-' tiful appreciates ah a glance that these pictures, done' with colorful floss in outline stitch, add^a distinctive charm to the model.

The fact that' there Is a contrasting border should be taken note of by the mother who plans to make" a'dress for her little girl similar to the one pic tured. Borders of one kind or an other are conspicuously a method of trimming this season, not only for children’s frocks, but for those of grownups as well. Since fine handwork of .all sorts dis tinguishes little girl’s frocks more than ever this season, it Is an ineen-. five to mothers to “do it now” ready for ,coming summer wear.

Blake Kennedy, who ordered that the entire village and its populace must be mov.ed in order to make a clear path for a giant of industry—petroleum. Public, buildings, business houses, homes — everything — must go, for Judge Kennedy decreed that the Ohio Oil company, which leased the land on which the town is located, from the goverdment for. oil development, is entitled to full possession within 60 days. On April 21, 1924, he held that the town had been established without legal basis but did not pro vide for enforcement of a removal or der. The decision means that if any sign of the town is left in 60 days, those responsible will be subject to citation for contempt of court. Lavoye is a modern incarnation of the typical boom mining town of the old west. Prosperity has been gen eral • since the town was established in 1920 and, the hundreds of men em ployed in the breathless rush for oil spent as freely as they earned. Lavoye is located in the heart of the Big Salt creek oil field. It puffed up between patches of alkali and sage brush almost overnight, 40 miles, north of Casper when oil drilling call ed thousands of men in that vicinity. In 1922 it took an other spurt of grow ing which continued until 1923, and it still is the same hustling village, hav ing one large mercantile establish ment, three weekly newspapers, nu merous motion picture theaters, auto mobile agencies, and other institutions of work and play which fortune seek ers demand. Like the mushroom town .it is, its buildings are flimsy—hastily thrown together shacks for the most part—- and easily can be demolished. It is expected that , the business interests of the town will be transferred most ly to Salt Creek, a nearby oil town.

The most common mistake of those who feed a mash is that they leave animal food out of the mash. • To obtain economical egg produc tion without a well-balanced mash Is an uphill proposition. The principal reason for this is that a hen will eat more feed when a portion of it is fed In the form of a dry mash. When a mash is/ fed the hens will hold up In production longer, as It improves their physical condition and prevents early molting, which throws them out of laying condition. A well-balanced mash also helps • the hens to molt quickly when the proper time cornea A dry mash without animal food; such as tankage or meat scraps, or a substitute for such food In the form of skim milk, buttermilk, powdered milk, evaporated mHk, etc., is but lit tle better than no mash at all. Those who feed a' mash of ground corn and oats without a protein feed might just about as well not feed mash at alL For those who have not been using a dry mash It is suggested that they, try the following simple mixture: 100 pounds ground corn, 100 pounds ground oats, 100 pounds wheat middlings and 100 pounds of meat scraps or tank age. If plenty of skim milk or but termilk , is available, put only 50 pounds of the meat scraps or tankage In. the mixture. For the scratch feed use a mixture of 200 pounds corn, 100 pounds oats and 100 pounds of wheaL Feed the dry mash In a hopper from which the hens can eat’ at any time.' Feed about one-third of the-.scratch feed In the morning and the remain der'just before roosting time. Adjust the amount of scratch feed so that the hens will 'eat at least one and one- half pounds of the mash to two pounds of the scratch feed. If the hens do not take readily to the dry mash, feed a portion of it at noon In a slightly dampened, crumbly condi tion. A ration of this kind, supple mented by some succulent food, such as sprouted oats, will make the birds lay If they are reasonably well bred. U B d e rsiz ed P u lletsA re L o w P ro d u c e rs o f E g g s ' Unlike chickens, furkeys do not lay during the winter and‘therefore no nests need to be provided for them until spring. Then, if at liberty and left to their own resources, they some times select locations for their nests that are much more ’suitable to the turkeys than to the ownqy. Often they are In such secluded places that the eggs are liable to get lost, elillled or broken. Hence it is often advisable to place nests here and there about the place. Old barrels turned toward a fence or placed in a bush heap; or In the cor ner of a board pile and bedded with leaves or old hay with a china egg or two, will sometimes prove tempting. Old boxes with nests in them, placed In out-of-the-way corners or simply nests of hay containing china eggs In corners of the shed wiil prove satisfac tory. If any of these places , are adopted by the turkey she will lay there and the eggs may be taken care of/until she wants to sit If the weather is cold the good eggs may be.gathered, and china eggs put In their places. The same thing may be done Ifthey are in danger of being destroyed by rats, crows, or. other varmints. How ever, it is never advisable to use new parrels or boxes, or anything which suggests the hand of man when mak ing nests to attract the turkeys.

IekorV Itecord, Why Merchants Should Advertise. T h ee d ito ro f the Attico, Iud., Ledger andUTribUne, in an article in the Publisher's A uxilary1 has the following to say among other things: - “ Again, a stranger iudges a town to a great exteiit by its newspaper If he is interested in a town, the first thing he does is take a glimpse at the home papeT. If ne sees a nicely printed sheet, well edited and full of newsy m atter, he begins to take notice. IIe turns to the advertis ing columns to see w hat the merch ants are doing. If he looksupon a iarge list of advertising columns to see what- the m erchants are doing. If he looks upon a large list of ad vertisements fiill of convincing ex pressions and show ing desire for trade, he generally ends his hunt by theexpressiou. “ This looks like a live town to me, full of hustling business men who appreciate a good thing ill the way of a newspaper and the chauce to get more busi ness. I believe this will be a good town in which to locate.” Then my advertising patrons owe a debt of gratttde to my paper for its everlasting enterprise in extend ing its scope by special editions— sometimes as High as 24 pages. These big editions help largely to put the old tow n' on the map by telling the world w hat the old town is doing. ■ Lastly, I lay claim to the patron age of the m erchants of this town for my paper, because their town is.m y town, their, interests are my interests, their welfare is my wel fare, their..decline. is - my! decline, and their success is Tny success Therefore it is meet that the m er chants of. this town patronize my paper, that we all may gain bur share of success as the years rol b /.” * The Country Doctor Dies. The father-in-law of Editor O J. Coffin, of the Kabigh Times, died the-past week at his home up the mountains of Haywood county. He had been one of the good old fashion ed country doctors for a generation and. while not'mentioning his name Coffin pays his beautiful tribute to the memory of Dr Wilson as follows Death is a tragedy that sickens all of us, we can’t get used to it.

Search Without Warrant. ■The Supreme court of the U nit ed States holds, Justices McRev- nolds and Sutherland dissenting, that it-is lawful for officers to stop and search atrom obiles and other vehicles for liquor without a war- rent. The court draws a distinction between the search of vehicles and buildiugs—residences or business places.- A warrant is necessary for the seach of buildings, but inas much as a ship, a motor boat, a w agonoran automobile could be moved-out of the jurisdiction of the officer pending the obtaining of the necessary papers, the officer may proceed without the w arrant in such cases. “ It would be intoler able and unreasonable,” says Chief Justice Taft, delivering the opinion of the court, “ if a prohibition agent were authorized to stop every auto mobile on the chance of finding li quor;” And yet in effect that is exactly what the decision gives the officer the authority to do. True the Chief Justice declases that the officers'must have "reasonable or probable cause for believing that the automobile which he slops” has liquor in it that is being illegally transportated. But after all the officer is the juge of wltaj is “ rea sonable or probable cause.” Care ful and prudent officers will not of course attem pt search without sat isfactory reasons.

And in localities such as-lredell county, in which there is $50 prize money lor every autom o bile found carrying liquor, iitceu- tive for the search is strong. At the same time it is realized that under modern conditions it would be impracticable to wait for a search warrant If the autom o bile could be detained while the warreut was be jug-issued, the rum runners would find their freedom great.elv .enlarged.. Those who cairy liquor ill their cars, no m at ter how SmalL tIie amount, have on ly' themselves, to blame if they .get in trouble. Innocent people who may be held up aud searched are of course greately littinilated. But the humiliation could be born with some degree of compose if the of ficers treated the suspects as possi blvlunoceut until evidence to the contrary was forth coming. Buttoo many of the officers add to the hu miliation by being very ugly about the search, treating the suspect as guilty until he establishes his in nocence. - It is the ugly officer, in some cases ignorant and brutal, without intelligent comprehension or indifferent to the rights of the accused, that arouses the storm of iudiguatiou against reckless search, shooting into cars without evidence that they’ are contraband carriers, etc,r ,Tlie court didn’t 011 th e right o f the hfficer to use force to stop a car in; the absence of actual know ledge that it Avas a contraband car rier,.

One day the past week in -the North Carolina house, one Harri son a member, of the legislature from Richmond county, arose like Senator Giles in his seat and solemnly offered a resolution of confidence in Secretary of State VV.

Reference to an article iii another part of this paper will show the enormous extravagance prevailing in the departm ent presided -o.ver. by’ this same E.’erett.

The Lacy Pension.-. The News and Observer Which has been howling the Toudest'- for economy came out a few day's ago and advocated the pensioning of StateT reasurer-L acy saying that his long service in the employment of the stale entitled him to it. - Mr. Lacy has had an easy job of it for more than 25 years and has drawn down in salaries from the state, more than $100,000 aud why he should be .pensioned any more tliau any other-citizen of the state cannot be defended. The old geutleman stated a few days ago that he had no intention of quitting even if his retirement bill was passed but we all know ,that this was bunk and the first time he has another bad spell of. asthm a.he would step down and out and another Democratic ri'ng- ster would be provided for.

The dead are: Cornelius O’Brien, Dud- Iey Kempt and Bernard Colgrove. Leon Harlmen and Thomas Doyle were so badly injured they are not expected to recover. Six others of the party were slightly injured . HEAVIER PENALTIES ASKED HOUSE COMMITTEE RECOM MENDS STRICTER ENFORCE MENT. Washington—Opposing any increase above onehalf of one per cent in the alcoholic, content of beverages, a sub committee of the house alcoholic liquor traffic committee made public a re port recommending enactment by the next Congress of legislation imposing heavier penalties for prohibition law violations. • The subcommittee expressed the opinion that to increase the alcoholic content, but not to a point where it would become intoxicating in fact, would not satisfy those who demand alcoholic stimulants and would greatly increase the difficulties of law enforce ment.” Amendment of the existing law to fix a minimum fine and mandatory prison sentence for first offenses for manufacture and sale of alcoholic liquor, and increasing fines for trans portation and possession of liquors was recommended. The subcommittee, which was head ed by Representative Rudson, republi can, Michigan, also proposed establish ment of a prohibition agency separ ate from any other bureau, that pro hibition agents be selected under civil service, that the government buy all bonded liquors In government ware houses, and that appropriations -for prohibition enforcement be sufficient to place an adequate number of agents in areas where enforcement is diffi cult. The problem of enforcement, the report said, is not as great as many sources antagonistic to prohibition would infer. The difficulties have been magnified, while the benefits adding that “there is no evidence to justify any hope that the eighteenth amendment will be repealed.” Enumerating results of prohibition, which the report said were “secured with inadequate organization and law enforcement machinery,” it listed re ductions in violent crimes, a decrease in the number of paupers, an increase in thrift, improvement of the realty market, a lower death rate improve ment of the general health of the na tion, and a decrease in insanity. “The total number of ’ arrests In most cities shows a considerable in crease over preceding years,” ’it said, "but violation of automobile or traffic laws, sanitary regulations, school laws and other minor ordinances make up the larger proportion of these arrests.” Stone Mountain Coins Ready. Atlanta^—Two hundred and fifty thousand half dollars commemorating the struggle of the southern states and issued for the purpose of aiding in financing the work of the Stone Mountain memorial to the heroes of the Confederacy, arrived in Atlanta for distribution. The coins are to be sold through an arrangement with Atlanta banking in stitutions, by which the disposition has been underwritten. Another development of the day was the publication of a statement from S. H. Venable, one of the donors of the mountain, in which he was quot ed as saying the memorial would re quire further concessions of space on the mountain and that this “I never expect to do until so directed by the Daughters of the Confedercy.” Man Shot and .Set on Fire. Cartersville, Ga.—George Collas, who has been operaing a restaurant at Gadsden, Ala., died at a physician’s office as a result of haring been shot seven times and set on fire.

Washington.—Assurance of the sup port and confidence of the Washington government was given to Baron Ago von Maltzan in his capacity of ambas sador to the. United States fom Ger many by President Coolidge In ac cepting his letters of credence at the White House. The new ambassador was assuming his post “at a time when Germany is once more set in the path of prosper ity and peace,” the President pointed out, and he took occasion to pay trib ute to the late President Ebert of the German republic. “You come to America at a time when your nation mourns the death of its first president, a man of splen did integrity, of tact and of broad hu man sympathy," President Coolidge said. “President Ebert had the su premely difficult task of guiding the German republic during its first troub led years, of reconciling opposing factions, of inspiring courage at home and rebuilding confidence abroad. He succeeded because his vision was clearly fixed on right and duty, be cause he was a man naturally of great ability and had within him the power of growth which made him year by year a greater force. He succeeded also because he had the support of men of good will. “It is for you to interpret to Ameri ca the just aspirations of your nation, to promote the understanding, which is the only sound basis of lasting peace. That the United States has had the privilege to help in the re building of Germany is a case of satis faction to us all.” Asserting that the United States had “repeatedly given evidence to my country of its understanding and con fidence,” Baron von Maltzan added: “At the same time I gratefully re call the generous activities of Amer ican citizens in social and cultural help, and the far-seeing work of finan cial' and economic construction, bear ing an American name which has be come historical.” His last order from President Ebert, IllI rected him to express his high per sonal esteem and bis sincere wish for the welfare of the United States.

Six of the 12 banks, how ever, made no direct loans in January and this condition was taken to mean that commercial loan agencies were supplying greater amounts of funds. No appreciable change was shown in the amount of rediscounts handled by the credit banks. University Opens Day Nursery. ■' Chicago.—A day nursery, where forty-two 2, 4 and 5 year old young sters play, sleep and eat, under ex pert care while their parents go on with class-room courses or research work, has been opened by the Univer sity of Chicago here.

Rockefeller, Jr., has given . $1,000,000 to the Hampton and Tuskegee institutes for negroes, it was announced by Dr. Anson Rhelphs Stokes, chair man of the special gifts committee of the Hampton-Tuskegee endow ment fund. Mr. Rockefeller’s donation was made unconditionally, 'and brings the endoment fund now being rais ed to $3,500,000. “Inasmuch as I have been pro foundly interested in these schools ever since my father took me as a small boy to visit Hampton, when General Armstrong was its head; because they provide an education which fits boys and girls to be use ful citizens, whether they go for ward to higher and professional edueationl or go directly into agri culture, industry or business; be cause they stress the development of character along with the devel opment of mind and body, and be cause of my life-iong interest in the colored race, I shall count it a privilege to participate In the cam paign to the extent of $1,000,000. As I understand it, this leaves you still $1,500,000 short of your goal.” MASKED MEN ROB COUPLE FASHIONABLE FIFTH AVENUE APARTMENT SCENE OF AN OTHER ROBBERY. New York.—Using methods which proved successful, albiet fatal, In the notorious “Dot” King and "Lou” Law son robberies, htree armed and mask ed men in dinner garb invaded a sump tuous studio apartment in the Plaza section of Fifth Avenue and escaped with $25,000 worth of gems. The victims, who were bludgenoed, bound, gagged and left unconscious, were Mrs. Fay Perkins estranged wife of a restaurant owner, and Milton Ab bott, reputed wealthy cotton broker of this city. Mrs. Perkins’ apartment was the scene of the affair. With the excep tion of a few dollars taken from Ab- bott’s pockets, the $25,000 loot - was Mrs. Perkins’ loss. She suffered such injuries that phy sicians reported her condition grave. The only clue to. the identity of her AMiiIkiib ms Ilfikl If illltt who saw the silk handkerchief mask slip from the eyes of one man, and got a glimpse of features which he said he would recognize again.

Nashville, Tenn.—In passing on the demurrers of The Nashville Banner to the damage suits of the E. I. Du Pont De Nemours and company and the Dupont Engineering company, growing out of a publication on De cember 16, 1923, concerning the build ing and operation of the old Hickory powder plant, the information purport ing to have been made public by the United States district attorney. Fed eral Judge John J. Gore made the fol lowing observation regarding the right of a newspaper to publish maters of public interest: "It is the privilege, if not the duty, of the press, as a disseminator of news, to publish matters of public In terest; still it is not immune from liability for defamatory publications. But, when a publication concerning matters of vital importance to every one is made in good faith, in the bona fide belief of its truth, and without malice, purporting to be an interview Cf so high an officer of th'e government as the district attorney and when same is free from comment by the publisher, (except the headlines) I am of the opinion that the occasion on and the circumstances under which same was published, classifies it as 'qualifledly privileged,’ which accord ing to well established law, upon a trial, will rebut the presumptigp of malice, and cast the burden of prov ing actual malice upon the plaintiff. But, if, upon the trial it should appear from the proof, that the publication was false and malicious, that it was not made in good faith and was made without probable cause, then the de fense or privilege would be overcome, .,and the plaintiff should recover the damages sustained.” Seek U.

As the wo man was convicted before the method of execution In Georgia was changed from hanging to electrocution, she.was again sentenced to be hanged. ENGLISH GOITON in refractory : FOREIGN ASSOCIATIONS DEMAND CONDITIONS PROVIDING FOR SET GRADING. Washington. — Conditions under which Liverpool and Manchaster cot ton associations would continue to recognize the universal cotton stand ards were presented by their .repres entatives at a.conference of European and American cotton with officials of the department of agriculture. The conditions, which provide that the standards be effective for two years instead of one, and that new stand ards be established during that pe riod should the original sets deter iorate, will be considered at another conference in London in April or May. . Another proposal advanced provides for equal division of votes as between Europe and the United States in establishing standards, and that the European associations arrange their own division of votes. ' Dr. H. C. Taylor, of the department of agriculture, who presided at the conference, announced that the de partment considered the subject one for settlement among the European organizations, and not for negotiation at this meeting. If the European as sociations accept the Liverpool pro posal it will be voted upon at the next annual conferenec to establish standards. At present each associa tion has one vote, with foreign organ izations predominant. The Liverpool 'cotton association and the Federation of Master Cotton Spinners' associations of Manchaster accepted the universal standards last year but notified the department that it would reject the agreement this year. Their proposals for changing the agreement. Dr. Taylor said, would be satisfactory with Secretary Jar- dine if the conference approved them. The plan for using the standards for two years was met with the ob jectlon of some delegates that deter -1 ioration of the cotton samples during two years would be too great. The Liverpool repersentatives, however, declared that variations In the stand ards from year to year under _ the present Bystem would be greater than under the 'two-year system. In ad dition they suggested that should changes be discovered In the two offi- tkl i (I MlK I IiM should have power to approve altera tions in the copies to meet the stand ard. Seven Are Wounded In Feud FighL - Connellsville, Pa.—Three men were stabbed in the back and four were slightly hurt by bullets in a fight in the mountains near South Connells- ville it was learned when stories of a mountain feud were told to Fayette county authorities. Women members of the families were said to have joined in the fight ing, although none of them was hart. The fight started, officers said, when Charles Schoyer tried to collect $180 from 'Raymond Evans. Evans called three of his friends, Ralph Pump, 19, Harry Bieriy, 19, and Louis Pierce, 25, and gave battle.

He is also instructed to look after Jlm Rathway, reputed head of the ’‘Free Traders,*' illicit liquor runners. At Little Falls he ftnds Pelly is credited with having found a gold mine, and is missing. At the hotel appears a girl, obviously out of place in the rough surroundings. A half- breed, Pierre, and a companion, ‘•Shorty,’* annoy the girl. An derson interferes in her behalf. The girl sets out for Siston Lake, which is also Anderson’s obiec- tive. He overtakes her and the two men with whom he had trouble the night before. She is sus picious of him and the two men are hostile. Pierre and Shorty ride on, Anderson and the girl following. In the hills the road is blown up, before and behind the two. Anderson, with his horse, is hurled down the mountain side, senseless. Recovering consciousness, Anderson finds the girl has disappeared, but he concludes she is alive and prob-. ably in the power of Pierre and Shorty. On foot he makes his way to Siston Lake. There he finds his companion of the day before, and Rath way, with a girl, Estelle, a former sweetheart of Anderson’s, who had abused his confidence and almost wrecked his life. Rathway strikes Estelle, and after a fight Anderson, with Estelle's help, escapes with the girl. Anderson’s companion’s mind is clouded and she is suf fering with a dislocated knee. Anderson sets the knee. . CHAPTER VI—Continued The joint slipjigil into position, the tortured body ceased its protest, and Lee rose, the perspiration streaming down his face. Trembling in the nervous reaction from the struggle, Lee listened to the increasing noise of. the motor boat again. It rose to a roar as it passed again along the channel immediately in front of his hiding place, and gradually dwind’ed away. Leaving the girl' where she had fallen back into unconsciousness. Lee ascended one of the spruce trees and scanned the channel. The motor boat was moving up the shore of the island along the edge of the reeds. It con tained Ratliway and two other men. AnotherTorIt boat was coming from the direction of the promontory, This contained three men also. Six on the trail; and Lee guessed that they would leave no noolc un searched in their determination to lo cate himself and the girl. The island appeared to be about a mile in length by a third wide. Lee, seeing that discovery was only a mat ter of time, decided that it would be better to abandon the boat and take refuge somewhere in the underbrush. If the Tork boat had not been found by nightfall, he could return with the girl and try to escape to the mainland. If it were discovered, tbeir situation would be no worse. He strapped one of the packs about his back, picked up the girl, and. thus encumbered, proceeded through the thick brush, making for the opposite shore, tavhere he put the girl down in a smali declivity where the growth was thickest. Removing the tin pannikin from the outside of the pack, he ob tained water and poured some down the girl’s throat. He noted that the swallowing reflex was present, a fa vorable sign in unconsciousness, as be had leamed at the front. Toward the middle of the afternoon the sun, which had shone brilliantly throughout the morning, went perma nently behind the clouds. Another snowstorm was beating up. A few soft Rakes began to fall. Suddenly a distant hubbub broke out and continued. There was no mis taking what was meant. The Tork board had been discovered. The Free Traders began to beat across the island, calling to one an other. Their voices gradually sounded nearer. Crouching besfde the girl In the thick of the brush, Lee waited. At a distance he saw two of them pass through the trees and disappear. The shouting died away.. As soon as they had passed him, leaving- the girl where she lay, Lee slipped softly through the under growth, making his way back to the sandy spit. His expectations were confirmed. The Tork boat had dis appeared. Reascending the spruce tree, he saw .the two Tork boats moored to the motor boat in mid-channel, a man with a rifle SeatediIn it on guard. They were trapped on the island. Lee made bis way back, and waited while the afternoon wore away. The snow fell thicker. He .took off his mackinaw and placed it over the girl. She was no longer in a coma, bnt semi-conscious, and unaware of her surroundings. She muttered and tossed; sometimes it was ail Lee could do to quiet her. And the disjointed fragments of speech that fell from her lips - indicated the same mental an guish that she had revealed to him during their ride through the range, Ge shuddered to think of her mental agony if she had awakened to find Herself a prisoner in Rathway’s power at the promontory. And even in the darkness of their desperate situation; be drew new hope from his resolution. And gradually his plans formed in' his mind. Then night began to fall, and Lee breathed a vast sigh of relief. Un less his plans miscarried, they should be safe upon the mainland well before midnight. These depended, of course, upon his being able to capture one of the boats. The best plan for the Free Traders would have been to have withdrawn them to the promontory, knowing that Lee could not swim with the girl across that stretch of ice-cold water. Lee felt sure that, in their eagerness, feeling secure in their numbers, they would encamp upon the shore, either beaching the boats or leaving them anchored under the single guard In the middle channel. About half an hour after dark he set out on his investigations. He moved through the brush as softly as any Indian, and, booted though he was. hardly a twig crackled under his feet. Making his way toward the central portion, where the trees were sparser and the ground undulating, he soon discovered what he was looking for, the distant gjow of a camp fire. Four men were seated around the fire, drinking and conversing loudly. It was impossible to make out their faces in the darkness, but Lee waited patiently until the light of the fire fell upon each, and ascertained that none of them was bearded. Rathway, then, was either In charge of the motor boat, with the sixth man. or had been forced to return to his headquarters, owing to his condition. Lee circled the camp, and dis covered. to his joy, the Tork boat, beached on the shore about twenty- five yards distant. The men had not troubled to draw it up on birch rollers, where it would have been a matter of time and labor to float it again; it lay with Its keel in the mud, careening to the lap of the little waves. Lee cogitated. If the men got drunk that night, it might be possible to make off with the boat without arousing them. On the other hand the prob abilities were that 'through fear of Rathway they would stay sober enough to guard it effectively. And the delhy was telling upon his nerves. He decided that at all cost it was necessary to make the attempt as quickly as possible. He made his way back to the girl, strapped the pack on his back, and, taking her in his arms, began to ap proach the encampment by a circuitous route through the trees. In the darkness, staggering over the uneven ground, and loaded as he was, the task was an all but impossible one. But, added to this, the girl awakened and began talking disjointedly, some- iines crying out in fear. It was al most impossible to quiet her. She clung to him, moaning. For a whole hour he- tried to assuage her terrors, until at last sTItf, dropped asleep again from weakness and weari ness. Once more Lee took up his task. Now the campfire came into view. The four men were still visible about it, shouting and quarreling; they were drunk, but not drunk enough to ren der escape without a fight possible. Creeping, almost inch by inch, to the extension of raspberry brambles, Lee followed it down to the water’s edge and laid the girl down. He Iookhd at her apprehensively for a moment, .but her eyes were closed In sleep and her breathing, was soft and regular. Then coolly Lee stepped out into the open space and made his way toward the group. He W’as within five and twenty yards of them before they perceived him. and then they seemed to take him for one of their party. Lee’s impressions were or confused shouting and challenging. His coolness disconcerted and bewild ered them; he was almost upon them before Pierre recognized him. “By gar, ( it’s dat d—n four- flusher!" be shouted. And on the instant Lee was into the thick of them. A tall ruffian grasped a rifle and rushed at him. Lee fired. The man, shot through the hand, dropped the rifle, and, uttering a howl of pain, took to his heels in the under growth. A second man was aiming at him. Lee brought the butt of his pistol down upon bis head, and the man, collapsing In a mumbling heap, lay face upward upon the ground. Shorty was pulling desperately at a gun. Lee swung at him, missed his skull, but knocked him sidewise with a blow that laid his cheek open to the bone. Shorty dropped and lay still. Pierre, who ,had made no movement of aggression, was staring at Lee stupidly. “Hands up, d—n you!” Lee shouted. Pierre’s arms went up to their full height Lee frisked him, took bis gun, took Shorty’s and the third man’s, and -tossed them into the undergrowth as far as he could fling them. He ,stopped and picked; up the rifle that the first man had dropped. • And, within a few seconds of. the opening melee, Lee found himself, by virtue of thgsurprise, master of the situation. But there was no time to be lost, for the tall ruffian who had fled was howling somewhere along the shore, and all depended upon the nearness of the motor boat. Lee. covering Pierre, backed quietly to. the place where he had laid the girl. He picked her up and ran toward the boat with her. Instantly Pierre’s figure was blotted out in the darkness. Lee had set down the rifle whan he picked up the girl; he placed her in the bottom of the boat, ran back and found it and threw it inside, together with the pack from his shoulders. He raised the heavy anchor. He threw all his weight against the boat, which re ceded in a trail of viscous mud until it was afloat. Lee leaped In, seized the oars, fired another shot in warn ing. Al! the while the wounded man was howling along the shore. Lee pushed desperately with the oars till he was in deeper water. He pulled furiously for mid-channel. As he did so there came a sound that for one instant almost unnerved him. what with the psychological effect of that all-day listening to it—the chugging of the engine. Then, as he reached open water, he saw by the light of the pallid moon that issued for a moment through the storm-clouds, the black speck of the motor boat trailing the second Tork boat dimly. But suddenly the rattling of the en gine died in a splutter. Tite motor boat was about a hundred yards dis tant. The next instant the bang of a rifle confirmed Lee’s hopes. The en gine had either run out of gasoline or had become out of order. Instantly Lee was pulling as he had never pulled before. Again the rifle sounded. Twice more. Now the motor boat was almost invisible In the darkness. Then, simultaneously with another discharge, something struck Lee a vio lent blow in the side that knocked him on his back. He was up in a moment, and pulling with ail his might, though he knew he I A Lee Had Set Down the Rifle When He Picked Up the Girl. He Placed Her in the Boat, Ran Back and Found It and Threw It Inside, Together With the Pack From His Shoulders. was wounded. But at all cost he must reach that nearing. Welcome shore. He felt the wet blood trickling down him. His breqth was coming in short gasps. He bent to the oars with, all his reso lution set upon the completion of that journey. At last the shore seemed to reach out to him, the forests parted, the distant shouts died away. Be ran llie boat aground.' Lee’s brain seemed preternaturally acute. In that moment be did not for get the pack, but, snatching it from the boa;, leaped ashore, and. running some fifty yards, placed it carefully in the brush at the base of a tall pine. He ran back, picked up the girl, and, carrying her in his- arms, began to make his way into the thick of the forest. And all the while he ran, he was weighing everything. The Free Trad ers would not know that he was wounded, they would certainly aban don the pursuit as hopeless; he must carry the girl a mile into the forest, where the light of their fire would not betray them, returning for the pack In the: morning. He' suffered no pain, and seemed momentarily endowed with some extraordinary vitality, but there was a numbness In his sjde which seemed to be spreading upward. He had no idea how serious the wound was; everything that was him self was set upon the completion of the last phase of bis .task, so that, If he died, the girl should at least come back to consciousness In the forest and not In Rathway's hands. Be struggled on, felt himself weak ening, felt himself choking, and set down the girl In order to draw breath. But as he raised her again, he felt a sudden stab of agonizing pain, and something grated beneath his heart He realized then that the rifle bullet had split one of his ribs, probably glancing off again, and that the bone had given way under the strain of the girl’s weight.In a way this reassured him, for a glancing wound, of that kind was not likely to be a serious one. On the other hand, the agony was growing unendurable. Every step was now torture. Three or four times, when it seemed impossible to proceed, Lee was forced to set the girl down and, lean ing against a tree, to gasp for breath. Eiemlties seemed to be passing. AU his left side was now a flaming hell of pain, whicli radiated from the wound throughout his body, and this was be coming an automaton, driven by the will. He was no longer conscious of muscular control over it. A hundred times he felt that the next step must be his last. And yet some monitor In the back of his consciousness kept in sisting that he must complete the mile he had set himself, and would not let him drop in his tracks. And as he staggered on, he was sur prised Io hear himself talking to him self, and he listened with mild inter est, as if he were overhearing the re marks of a third person. He heard himself solemnly address ing Estelle, thanking her for having relieved him of the last vestige of the love that he had once felt toward her. He had thought he loved her once, and that love, although unworthily bestowed, had not been wholly folly. Estelle had had many good qualities of heart; she was reckless and pas sionate, but there was nothing petty or mean about her. Slie was the daugh ter of a well-to-do lumberman, and she had been well educated; but there was some taint in her blood, some atavistic tendency that drove her upon wild and erratic courses. For a while she had been on the stage, and had earned some reputa tion as a clever mimic. For a long time Lee had known nothing of the stories that were being circulated by all the gossips of the town, nor that her name was asso ciated with that of a man named Kean, whom he had never met. Kean was one of a gang selling liquor to the Indians, and he had a wife in Chicago. When, burning with anger, he went to confront Estelle, it was to find that she had been warned of his discovery, and had fled from the place—to Kean, the gossips said. Lee never made any inquiries. As soon as possible he secured a trans fer to another post; then he was sent to France, and his life had no room for feminine interests. About ten months previously, how ever, while in the trenches, lip had had a letter from Mrs. Kean, enclos ing. a copy of a marriage certificate, She was thinking of a divorce, and wanted to know whether he could give her any information about the couple. Lee knew nothing of either. But the letter had shaken Iiim a good deal, as had the meeting with Estelle that day as well. What an end for her!. It was a queer personality that talked, the fragments of the man whom he had once been, and Lee discovered that this lost portion of his personality was recalling to mind all sorts of queer things, quite trivial and unim portant episodes of that unhappy en tanglement. s And so one part of him held colloquy with the shade of the woman who was now nothing to him> while the other held the unconscious girl, and drove the lagging body onward. And to his horror, in that dim light the girl he clasped seemed to take on the aspect of Estelle, and he found it was to her that he was talking. But then he heard her moan slightly, and pulled himself together. T,bis was not Estelle, It was his comrade of the range whom he was carrying. The phantom disappeared into the past, and once more Lee was aware of that odd sense of tender companionship. He rested her head more gently against his - shoulder. At last, when he was satisfied that he had gone the mile he had set' him self, he laid the girl down gently on the ground, and, 'breaking off some spruce branches, he made a bed for. her and wrapped her in his mackinaw again. And with that It was all he could do to hold himself together whlle he examined his own wound as best he could. He saw that it was a mere flesh wound. The bone had taken the force of the bullet, which had'glanced off, and one broken And was working Into the flesh. He tore some strips from his shirt, and having brought the ends into po sition, bound them tightly. And then he dropped . to the ground at the girl’s feet and lapsed immediately into a delirious slumber. CHAPTER VII The Girl Awakens And all that night It was the will that sustained the worn-out body in that tight up through the darkness, and the knowledge that he must , re tain Intact the thread of consciousness if. he was to save the girl from the alternative between death In the for est and recapture. At earliest dawn he must retrieve the pack, 'In case Rathway’s men should decide to beat about the shore and so, perhaps, might find it. Be yond that point Jte would not let his anticipations carry him. It was some time before the dawn when Lee heard the girl cry out sud denly, a moan of pain and of surprise as the body, heavy with its coma, struggled to convey the sense of dis tress to the dazed mind. That cry drove the phantoms of deli rium from Lee’s mind, pulling him back to consciousness, and in an in stant Lee was at the girl's side, per fectly master of himself, and, as she stirred and murmured, be raised her, put his arms about her, and took her head upon his shoulder, as tenderly as if she were some boy comrade, wounded upon patrol. But as he listened to her broken ut terances Lee realized that it was more than physical, pain that was torment ing, her. “I cannot go on. It was too heavy a price. I must go back. If you won’t kill him, save me and take me away. It is not that I didn't trust you, only you didn’t understand. . “No, I’m not sure that I trust him. He IOoks honest, but who knows that he is? He isn’t a prospector, he hasn’t a pick or a pan. What should he be doing In the range? Fes. Tll go through with it. I’ll go with you when he’s asleep, only don’t barm him. Tou must promise me not to harm him. “Tes, he means well and wants to help me. He doesn’t know w£« you are. Tou murt swear that no harm shall come to him—” She was living over again the events of' the past. Her utterances became more broken, she moaned—suddenly she lay quiet, relapsing into the sleep of profound exhaustion. And Lee staggered to his feet and lay down once more. But this time it was neither to sleep nor to fall back into the nether depths of delirium. He saw that a titanic conflict had been going on within the girl, and it seemed to him now that she had been going up to Rathway. Something in the conversation be tween Rathway and Estelle—whal had it been? He pondered over it all in a dis connected way as he lay there, still- aware that another part of him was living over those days of long ago. Then at last the first light of dawn came creeping through -the trees, and slowly this pain-racked, thirst-tor mented being settled down into him self again. As soon as it was half-light he was on his feet. After looking at the girl, and convincing himself that she was not likely to awake for several hours, he set off, aching in every limb, toward the shore of the lake, In order to re trieve the pack. In less than half an hour he emerged out of the forest, and, after a careful survey of the lake had con vinced him that neither the Free Traders nor their boats were in evi dence he struggled down to the river, and bathed in the ice-cold waters, lap ping them up and feeling new life flow into bis veins. He adjusted and tightened the band ages. The broken rib was snugly held, and Lee felt that he had gone through the worst of it. He found the pack. It contained a blanket and , waterproof sheet, tea, sugar, bacon, flour, cream of tartar, salt, corn meal, some dried apricots, matches, and nails; there were a pot, a pannikin, plate, knife, fork, and spoon, Sn axe and a small saw. His wound made it impossible t< carry this on his back, but with thf axe in one hand Lee sliced off a num ber of pine branches, out of which he constructed a rough framework on which to haul the pack. An hour’s work and an hour’s struggle through the woods,, brought him back to the girl. She. was sleeping naturally, and there was a faint tinge of color in her cheeks. After a short rest Lee set about the task of-making camp. He gathered brushwood and built a fire; he put on to boil the pot which he'had brought back full of wafer. And, hav ing on the return journey discovered a small, clear stream near by, be decided that that would be a safe camping place until they could proceed, and accordingly bent down some saplings and proceeded, to thatch them with branches, to make a shelter for them. He bad just begun when he heard a low call behind ■ him. The girl was awake and conscious at last. She was looking at him In wonder, but not In fear. Of course the girl’s delirious utterances mean nothing. What will the forlorn couple do next?

Property at risk during January, 1925, was $4,423,792 as against $2,382,- 356 tor 1924. Fires were less numerous' but more costly, only 164- being reported as against 276 for the previous January.' Twenty-seven rural fires cost $232,428, while 137 town fires cost $547,257. Twenty-six did most of the damage, among them being the garage and livery stable blaze at Raleigh which caused an official loss of $209,000; a hotel and business block fire at Troy, which destroyed $100,000 worth of property; a store fire at Wilmington that did $75,000 damage; two store fires at High Point that burned up $67,- 500; a theatre and store fire that did $S0,100 damage in Greensboro, and a $52,000 garage fire at Greenville, Schools were heavy losers. Gaston county lost a $55,000 rural plant by flames, Union county lost a $65,000 school, two blazes at the State Normal School for Colored did $35,000 damage, and the co-ed dormintory at the Uni versity of North Carolina went up in $17,000 worth of smoke. Charlotte, Winstqn-Salem, Durham, Asheville, Salisbury, Elizabeth City and Rocky Mount were among the lar ger North Carolina cities having low fire losses during January. Towns getting on the Insurance De partment’s honor roll by reporting no fires during the month or no damage exceeding four dollars were: Hickory, Clinton, Statesville, Mt. Airy, Graham, Wadesboro, Waynes- ville, Rockingham, Middlesex, Kem- ersville, Selma, Warsaw, Franklinton, Jefferson, Pinetops, Huntersville, Black Mountain, Pinehurst, Randle- man, Granite Falls, Bonlee, Littleton and Belmont.. Single roofs and defective flues caused the greatest number of fire3 with 50 starting from this source, the causes of 43 of the fires were listed, as unknown, oil stoves started 11 blazes, overhot stoves and- furnaces started 10, gasoline blew up and caused nine alarms, careless smokers were respon sible for seven fires, burning trash, short circuits, rats, mice, children and loose matches were also popular causes. One thousand fires took place in residence, 16 stores had blazes, flames ran wild in 11 garages, 10 schools suf fered from flames, industrial plants and apartments each had . five fires, while hotels and churches suffered equally with three fires apiece. British Oppose Peace Protocol. Geneva.—The Geneva peace proto col, fashioned by the nations to out law war, is not acceptable to the British empire, Austen Chamberlain, British foreign secretary, will an nounce to the council of the league of nations. Such is the definite state ment made by British spokesmen. In a lengthy pronouncement, Mr. Chamberlain will set forth the Brit ish objections to the protocol as at present farmed, but it is understood that he probably will not attempt to explain just how the protocol can be changed so as to satisfy British opin ion. In other words, the British secre tary will offer no substitute for the protocol. Whether it will be possible to save the great Geneva peace effort by re vision and amendment so that it can be assured British support, which is AUTOMOBILE DEATHS HI6HI 258 Persons Lost Lives in 1923 in Car Accidents; 144 KiPed By Trains. . atrife Chapel Hill.—Nine states had fewer automobile fatalities in 1923 than North Carolina. There was an aver- .age Of 9.6 deaths per 100,000 of popu lation. The automobile density was 90 per 1,000 of population. Such are some of the facts brought out by E. T. Thompson in the leading article of the current issue of the University News Letter. Nebraska, it is shown, with a low er fatality rate than North Carolina has over twice as many automobiles _ _ _ _ per 1,000 of population. California has essential to its success will depend * highest mortality rates from auto- partly on the council, but' especially on the league assembly, to which the entire question presumably will be thrown. Five Rail Workers Killed. Altoona, Pa.—Five track walkers were killed on the main line of the Pennsylvania railroad at Graxierville, 12 miles east of here, when they were struck by an eastbound local train.

Believe Cold Killed Many Weevil. Kinston.—While orchard owners complain of damage to plum and pear trees by the new cold wave over this section, registering temperatures well below freezing at a number of points, cotton growers professed to see much benefit from the icy blasts and drop in the mercury. The recent high tem peratures had brought numbers of boll weevils out of hibernation, these said. The freeze caught them unawares and killed a large number of the bugs. 1 New German Ambassador Here. New York.—Baron Ago von Malt- zan, arriving on the Hamburg Ameri can liner Albert Balin, to succeed Otto Wiedfeldt as German ambassador, at Washington, called himself a “mes senger of good will and good faith” who believed the Dawes plan “has al ready taken Europe great strides along the road to reconstruction.” New Senate Bills Passed.

The Lee Half Dollar. Asheville Citizen. Am ong.^ll the suprisin^ people, the hardest to understand are those who are raisiiig such a n ' outcry a gainst the Governm ent’s announ ced proposal to mint half dollars bearing the portrait of General Robert E. Lee. A statue ,of Gen-/ eral Lee now stands beside one of General G rant in Am erica's Hall ot fam e. There never has heeti an American to surpass' Lee in all the gifts of a soldier, attributes'of a gentleman and traits of a Chris- ti^i. This is generally admitted. No man or woman Ims ever success fully, slandered Lee, No one in his right senses would today,even attempt it. Among Europeans he is as much admired for uis martial genius as he is by soldiers in the North and South of this country. - It is amazing that some of those people who criticise the Govern m ent’s half-dollar plan are loudest in preaching that we should for give Germany for what she did in the late war. To Jove Germ any iri spite of what she did in the late war. To love Germany in spite of what she did ten years ago, and to hate Robert E Lee when 63 years have pissed siuce he took up ihe, sword for bis idedls—that is a puzz ling contradiction in hum au l.a ture. The explanation, iu a way, is that Northerners became for more identified with, and absorbed in, the Civil W ar than they did in the1; war with Germany. Their feelings were the more deeply en gaged by'the /older - conflict, _ Ajidj it is their feelings which motivate them in this extraordinary outcry against Lee. No right thinking person could object to reminding America and the world every day in whatever way of the character of Robert E. Lee. H e will not have his rightful peace in the history of this country until, with people’s minds and he irts swept clear of every residue of sectional ism, lie become an. inspiration to every young American, N orth and South. The wonder is, not that the Government is notv putting his portrait on this country s monev, but that so^ong a time elapsed , be-i fore this decision was reached. Students Return to Sanity.

P U R E B R E D P O U L T R Y M O ST P R O F IT A B L E It is often said that pure bred flocks are more profitable than mongrels and there is every reason to believe that they are; but there is one provision that must be taken Into consideration; namely,, pure bred poultry must be better cared for than are mongrels. Those who do not intend to care for pure breds properly should stick to mongrels, but given care and attention pure breds will repay doubly for it as compared with the mongrels. There are reasons, says D. H. Hall, extension poultry husbandman of Clemson college. Pure bred poultry will prodifce a uniform product and will bring a higher price. The eggs from pure breds are uniform In size, shape and color. When eggs from pure breds do vary the variation is considerably less than from mongrels. Pure breds are faster growers and when grown produce a. more uniform flock. There is not a better advertise ment for a farm than a flock of pure bred chickens. They will attract more attention than any other form of live stock. Pure breds will also lay more eggs if properly handled. This has been proved beyond all doubt by various experiment stations. Pure bred poultry is. also more eco nomical with feed consumption. They lay more eggs, hence they pay more for their feed and give a Iiigher profit. Pure bred stock and eggs can be sold for breeding purposes. This will be a good source of income for the pure bred breeder. Mongrels and mongrel eggs can be sold only for mar ket prices. Pure breds can be exhibited in poultry shows and thus compete for prizes. .There is nothing like a blue ribbon from a poultry show. Mongrels cannot be placed In a show for prizes. /li muff! ifite t m' poultry. WliO Is the enthusiast about poultry In any community? Why, the farmer with the pure bred, of course. Why are yon not enthusiastic about your poultry? If you have mongrels that may be the reason. Get pure breds and be proud of them. D ubbing U sed to A void In ju ry to H en ’s C om b Dubbing to prevent freezing and suf fering due to frozen combs has been practiced very successfully In the Pur due university poultry flocks. Freez ing results In much suffering of the birds and consequently loss in fertility of eggs and batching results. Dubbing Is not new but a remedy breeders of fighting birds have always practiced to prevent injuring of combs and to conserve vigor of the males. The operation is extremely simple and a sharp razor is used first to cut off the wattles and later to remove the comb starting at the front end. The wattles are cut’ quite close and the comb reasonably close to the head. Tlie blood will flow freely but if a body fluff feather is held over cut part of the comb coagulation will soon take place and the bleeding cease. - Sgldom do the birds suffer JrL lllfl OflAWlHflll and free bleeding should cause no .worry. A treated bird should not be placed in an extremely cold room until the wound lias healed nor should they be placed together. . It is well not to practice the opera tion until after the birds have been se lected for the breeding pen In order to permit normal appearance, of the head to be a guide In making selections. H en ’s D rin k in g W ater Preparations advertised as being ef fective in ridding hens of lice simply by placing the preparation in the drinking water-or In the feed are not generally to be recommended for this purpose. Such material in the drink ing water will cause the hens to drink only a limited amount of water and, as a consequence, egg production will be reduced, advises J. H. McAdams, ex tension, poultryman, Kansas State Ag ricultural college. The sure method for killing lice at this time of year is to dust the hens thoroughly with sodium fluoride, using the pinch method. Or blue ointment may be used, mixed half and half with vaseline and applying a circle of the ointment around the vent, says Mc Adams. U se W ell-S haped E ggs In selecting eggs to place in an In cubator only average-sized well-shaped eggs should be used, as extremely large or small eggs, or eggs that do not con form to normal shape, will hatch a low percentage of chicks of irregular size. Do not delay the starting of the incu bator for the first hatching beyond April I, as the possibilities for profit are much greater, with early-hatched, chicks than with later ones. The early pullet’s are-the ones that will be fall and winter layers. F o r S ettin g a H en For a sitting hen' choose’ one of medium weight such as are found fn the American or English breeds. Make lie nest at least six inches deep and. sixteen inches square. For a nesting material choose something like oat straw, wheat straw, or hay. Make the nest so that the’ eggs will roll apart readily when the hen steps upon them, but not so flat but that they will roll together of their own accord when the hen leaves the nest. Choose a cool !dace, set from U to 15 eggs.

V a.-Thirty-three men were believed to have been killed in an explosion which wrecked mine 41 of the Bethlehem Mines corpora tion, three miles west of here. The explosion occurred between- 9:80 and 10 o’clock and at first it was believed all or part of the men were alive. At midnight, however, Mine Superintendent Benton Mitchell said he believed all the men were dead and that the entire mine was on fire. It was believed the explosion, one of the most terriffic in the Fairmont mining region, was caused by ignited gas. First reports indicated that a dynamite bomb had been dropped into the shaft. .By midnight the electric light plant of the mine, which was wrecked by the blast, was in operation again, one of the two main fans was in operation, and a bucket was being rigged to send rescue men to the bottom. The force ot the explosion was so terrific that it ,shook builings in Fair mont, about three miles distant, and a flash of light illuminated the sky for miles around. Men, women and children began rushing toward the mine from the sur rounding territory. The mine is locat- IFJ J M t been operating on a non-union basis. After their first examination, com pany officials- declared that the ex plosion had been caused by a dyna mite and nitroglycerine bomb dropped down the shaft from the surface. At 11 o’clock it was said the num ber of men in the property at the time of the explosion was probably not more than 40. They were coal cutters working the night shift. The property on the surface was wrecked, including -the wheel house, engine house, mine offices,- company store and superintendent’s house. Investigation started by Sheriff John Riggins, of Marion county, and Captain Hobart Brown, commanding the state police, have developed, these officials say, that two explosions took place simultaneously. One was on the surface, wrecking the engine house, office, store and other buildings. It is believed that some, if not all the entombed men are alive. At 11:05 a signal was received from the bottom of the shaft. It was in the form of a distant whistle as if the men be-, low were calling for help. The hoist is wrecked and at this hour a tem porary cage is being built and will be lowered on a rope. Schurnian to Berlin, Washington.—Nomination by Presi dent Coolidge of Dr.' Jacob Gould Sehurman, now American minister at Peking, to succeed Alanson 3. Hough ton as ambassador to Germany and its prompt confirmation by the senate, completed the realignment of major diplomatic assignments in Europe. It appeared improbable; however, that Ambassador Schruman’s successor In Peking would be nominated in time for consideration at the present ses sion of the senate. The transfer of Dr. Schruman to- Berlin is regarded by state department officials as a logical step, despite that it withdraws him from the Peking lega tion at a time when, political and eco nomic conditions in China and the far east generally have given that post outstanding importance. The promo tion is in line with the administra tion’s recent policy fit advancing its representatives abroad, and is an of ficial recognition of the important ser vices Dr. Sehurman has rendered in China under trying conditions. It is assumed that thejsame policy ot promotion will be followed In fill ing the ambassadorship to Argentina, recently, made vacant by the resigna tion of John W. Riddle, and indications point to the appointment within the next few days of Peter Augustus Jay, who has been in the diplomatic ser, vice since 1902 and now is minister to Roumania. German Records Broken. >. Lessau, Germany.—All records for Germany were topped here when Frau Becker, wife of a manual laborer, bore her teWnty-seventh child, a healthy boy. Eleven of the other boys arid girls are still lining, among them sev eral pairs' of twins. . ' On the same night of the arrival of the latest addition to the family, his eldest married sister, Anna, gave birth to twin girls. RELIEF MED I ENTIRE; MACHINERY OF ORGANI ZATION ALREADY SET IN MOTION Washington-National headquarters of the American Red Cross, with its, chief President Coolidge, taking the initiative, set in motion its entire ma chinery to take material relief to the thousands of Injured and homeless in the tornado wrecked section of the west. At the same time, it sped of fers ot aid to other thousands, of suf ferers far away—victims of fire at Tokio and of flood at Trujillo, Peru. James Floyd Fieser, Vice-Chairman in charge of domestic operations at St. Louis, took supreme command of Red Cross relief work in the tornado area, with Henry M. Baker, who had been directing relief efforts in the mine disaster at Sullivan, Indiana, gave his attention in the new task primarily to the situation in southern Indiana area, where preliminary re ports received at headquarters indi cated the greatest damage was done. Relief operations meanwhile, were continued at the scene of the Fair mont, W. Va., mine disaster. A party of trained disaster relief workers left here late for Princeton, Ind., to aid in rehabilitating the home less and rendering other assistance. No check of dead and injured in the disaster was available at Red Cross Reports from local chapters in the re gion began to trickle in, but most of them dealt with relief activities and officials were confident that they were prepared to render primary em ergency aid. Each chapter they ex plained, has in its treasury funds for disaster relief and funds from nation al headquarters are also available to them if needed. Officials characterized the disaster as the greatest since the Ohio valley flood of 1913, when 1500,000,000 of U I! also directed the relief work at that time. Park In South Urged By Work. Washington.—Secretary Work tele graphed State Senator Roy Wallace and State Geologist Wilbur Nelson, of Tennessee, that he strongly favored the purchase by Tennessee of an 80,- OOO acre tract as the first step toward establishing a national park in the SmokyjJdountains of Tennessee and North Carolina. The Senator is in charge of a-bill pending in the Tennes see Legislature to effect the purchase.(tI am very anxious that the State purchase the 80,000 acre tract as -the first step to securing a national park in the Smoky Mountains," the message stated, “I hope nothing may be per mitted to delay this worthy'project so well started.” Secretary Work’s communication was prompted by several inquiries, in cluding one from Governor Peary, of Tennessee, to the effect that the'secre- tary has been misquoted by oponents of the project who sought to convey the impression that .Mr. Work was not favorably disposed toward the Smoky Park. Governor Peay called attention to “supposed interviews” with the Secretary representing the latter as “hostile” to the project. ' . Quiet is Restored In Peru. Washington.—Disturbances in Peru, due to dissatisfaction over the award by President Coolidge in the Tacna- Arica arbitration case, appear to be subsiding, at least so far as Lima, the Capital, is concerned. Mearge official advices reaching Washington indicated that the Peru vian Government had the situation in the capital under control. No details were included. # It is assumed In Washington, that the guard of Peruvian troops posted about the American Embassy after it had been attacked by a mob is still on duty. Despite the, official silence here, it is known there had been an ex change of shots between the embassy guard and rioters. Although the latest news from Lima is reassuring, officials here still regard the Peruvian situation with no little concern. . 800 Padlocks to Close Brewery. New York.—The Ebling brewery in the Bronx, founded 50 years ago, was ordered padlocked fop four months by Federal Judge' Bondy. Three officers Of the brewery pleaded guilty to manu facturing real beer and were fined $1,000 each. District Attorney Buck ner said it would require 800 padlocks to enforce the order. Recover Two Bodies FrOm Mine. Fairmont, -W. Va.—Two bodies, found in mine No. 41 of the Bethlehem Mines corporation,. three miles from here, were brought to the surface. They were the first to be found follow ing a terrific explosion at the property Tuesday night which entombed 34 miners. ' The bodies recovered were badly burned and were identified after con siderable difficulty. Rescue, Workers found the bodies far back In the left heading, near the point where-fire was discovered." LEARNED SAFEBLOWING ART WHILE IN PRISON. Baltimore, Md.—Declaring he had learned the “art” , ot safeblowing and lock tumbling while he was serving a term in the federal pris on at Atlanta, Charles Thornton Bean, 32, is being held by police for ■ Investigation. He was arrested when he was surprised In an alleged attempt to force an entrance into the Parkway theater. The lock was drilled al most through. The man had in his possession, police say, sufficient explosives and the necessary, preparing and ignit ing paraphernalia to destroy sever al buildings. According to records, Bean was one of the best high school hurd lers, quarter milers and football players ever developed here. CONFESSES GIIINS BACILLI PROPRIETOR OF SCHOOL BREAKS DOWN UNDER CEASELESS GRILLING. Chicago.—Charles C. Faiman, pro prietor of a school of bacterology, ad-, mitted, according to assistant state’s attorneys, that he had given typhoid germs to William D. * Shepherd, fos ter father.of William Nelson McClin- tock, the "millionaire orphan” whose death from typhoid fever is now a subject for investigation by the grand jury. Faiman said he had given the germs to Shepherd after the latter had told him that he “was going to innoculate some one with them” and that “it is a million dollar deal.” Shepherd said Faiman told assistant state’s attorneys that each of them would be rich “if the deal went through.” The state ment was made while Faiman was in the room with Shepherd. ■Shepherd, nervous and pale, denied ■I liar, he said almost in a whisper, ac cording to Assistant State’s Attorney John Scarbaro. Thenf clearing his throat, he "said, with some of his old emphasis, “You’re a liar.” "I have told the truth and you can’t deny it,” Faiman replied, looking steadily at Shepherd. Robert E. Crowe, state’s attorney, apparently elated by the statements of Faiman, obtained after days of al most ceaseless questioning, had little to say except that the grand jury would be .asked to indict Shepherd on a charge of murder. Faiman, he indicated, will be the state’s star witness if an indictment is returned, and the -star witness, he said, would probably, gain the mini mum penalty if not complete immu nity for his part in the case. Faiman, who earlier in the day had admitted that Shepherd had offered him $20,000 to “keep his mouth shut,” but still insisted that the three tubes ot germs had been stolen from his laboratory by unknown persons, final ly, with a shrug of his shoulders, made the new statement - involving Shepherd, assistant state attorneys said. “Prohibition Bible” is Opposed. Stockton, Calif.—Professor George Colliveii, head of the department of religious education at the College of the Pacific, said in a statement that the “prohibition Bible is unscholarly and seeks to disguise historiacl facts, thereby evading the truth.” ” “to rule out all references to wine making this - unauthentic ‘shorter Bible’, untrue,” he said. “The use of wine was common enough in biblical days, though the Nazarites and Racha- bites objected to it for racial reasons, however. This translation is not trtfe to history or the facts of the case. To call this ‘prohibition Bible’ a shorter Bible, is a minnomer.” Dies Singing Favorite Hymn. Springfield, 111.—Leading his favor ite hymn, J. P. Turley, 70, for 30 years director of the Christian church choir at Williamsville, near here, dropped dead in the hall of the crowded church. The choir had just finished the first stanza of “Where He Leads Me I Will Follow,” when the veteran choirster sank to the floor. Death was due to apoplexy. Send -Naval Man to New Orleans. Washington.—Assignment of Cap tain William D. Brotherton, now com manding the battleship Mississippi, as commandant of the eighth naval dis trict, New Orleans, was announced. The New . Orleans post has been va cant for some' time. ST5 REPORTED DEAD IR WEST H TOWN WIPED OUT, CASUALTIES MORE THAN 3,500, MANY CAUGHT IN STORM. Chicago.—A tornado tore through southern Illinois after lashing western Missouri and then causing considerable -damage in Indiana before it died out to the northeast after collecting a re ported toll of .3,631 persons dead and or injured on the basis of estimates available from the storm swept re gions iwhere communication largely was destroyed. While darkness and prostrated wires made the collection of data dif ficult, estimates, which came in through various sources with ever in creasing totals placed the total dead at 957 and the injured at „674 before midnight. The destruction of property was enormous, several towns being almost entirely wiped out and such populous places as West Frankfort and Mur- physboro.having lost whole blocks of buildings. In the town of Parrish only three persons were said to have escap ed death or Injury out of a population of 500. The wind was so powerful at Par rish that bodies were carried more than a mile, it was reported. At Mur- physboro, where the dead totaled 100. a schoolhouse was blown down over the heads of 245 pupils, while at De Soto, late estimates placed the dead at 100 and the injured at 300 out of a total population of. 703. A schoolhouse. at De Soto also was razed and only three of the 250 occu pants escaped unhurt, while 88 bodies already have been taken from the ruins. , The latest reports say that 700 persons were killed at Parrish and West Frankfort alone, but other lntor- mation placed the loss in these towns somewhat lower. In spite of the wide sweep of lid storm - after crossing the Mississippi river, several of the best trains run ning between the southern resorts and Chicago escaped its fury so far as re ports showed, but the scores of pas sengers were delayed somewhat in reaching their destinations as “ the trains had to feel their way through' the storm region for fear that timbers mighf have been thrown across the tracks or bridges torn down. -Churches and schools were razed at various places and 200 persons, most ly children, were ' killed or injured when the elements ripped open the Joiner school at Murphysboro. By a margin of only a few miles the tornado swept to the north of Herrin, 111., where troops have been called so frequently to quiet fighting among its citizens. Hundreds of telegraph poles were twisted off and many orchards were rent bare of limbs, while coal mine tipples were twisted' into masses of splintered timbers. With the arrival at unharmed towns of further news it is. feqred that it will be found that other towns in Mis souri suffered under the violence of the wind before it rose to leap the Misssis- sippi river. Before the twister descended on Murphysboro it had gained much more strength and literally tore down solid blocks when it hit that city. Its ener gy continued for several miles while it wrought havoc at Gorham, Desoto, Bush, and surrounding territory and then seemed to be at its maximum violence when it struck the mining town of West BTankfort with a popu lation of nearly 4,000. Reports indicated that a thousand in habitants were killed or injured there along, with frightful property damage. After sweeping =Benton and Logan, the full force of the tornado was dis played again at Parrish where, out of a population of 500, only three were reported to-have escaped death or in jury, and one building was left undam aged. ! While the fury YTf the storm continu ed through Thompsonville, McLeans-, boro and Carmi 1 as it raced towards the Indiqna' line, the casualties Were not quite so heavy.

As the wind swept into Indiana it seemed to divide .as one twister swirled northward and another south east. The northward storm struck at Princeton, Ind., which has a popula tion of 7,132, tore down or twisted put of shape a number of buildings, took a toll of life estimated at 100, with twice- that many injured. ^ 9 .

What has hap pened?" she asked. Lee saw at once that she had no consciousness of anything that Iiad occurred since the catastrophe, and probably it would be some time before the memory of that came back to her. He must protect her against the shock of the realization until she was able .to bear it. “Tour horse threw you,” he an swered. “You hurt your knee and cui your head. You will liave to keep still for awhile, and we shall have to re main here for a few days. Are you in much pain?” “My head aches, and my knee—yes, it does hurt a little. It isn't broken, is it?” “It was dislocated. I had to set.it.1 “Oh!” A faint color crept into her cheeks. There was a little silence. “Are you a doctor, then?” “No, I was just a humble orderly and stretcher bearer on the western front,” Lee answered. “But you see, it had to be attended to, and so I— well, I did it. After you’ve drunk some tea I’m going to be an orderly again and rebandage your head.” “But my hair—my hair! You cut my hair off!” she exclaimed, putting her hands up to her' head. “Was that necessary?” “You were caught by the hair under your horse, and there was danger that it might roll on you at any moment,” Lee prevaricated. She patted her head again, felt the jagged locks about her neck, and looked at him with eyes in which a little .mirth appeared. “Thank you, Mr. Barber,” she said. 'Tm so glad you take it In that way. I was afraid you might find it dif ficult to forgive me.” “I might, only—well, you see. I’ve been thinking of having it bobbed for some time, only,I never got around to It; I don’t think you made a very clean job of it, did-you?” . -They laughed, but she was weak, and after she had drunk the tea Lee made for her, she fell asleep until the middle of the afternoon, by which time Lee had completed the shelter over her. “Better?” he asked, when she awoke. She nodded. “You don’t look nearly so swimmy now,” she said. ' “And I’m not in much pain. But will I have to lie here on my back for days?” “As a matter of fact, the sooner you try to walk the better. I’m going' to cut a serviceable crutch for you, and you’ll be abl.e to hobble about the camp just as soon as you feel inclined to.” 1 , “!But you’re not hurt, are you?” asked the girl. "Your left- arm seems stiff.” “I hurt n>y side a little, but it’]] be all right in a few days,” Lee answered. She wrinkled her forehead. “Do you know,” she said, “I don’t quite remember falling. I was riding, you say? ' JVere we both riding? Then ■ where are our horses?” “They were badly hurt,” said Lee. “It became necessary to put. them out of their suffering.” The girl'was trying hard to remem ber. “A ba'd fall, then? How did it happen? A bad fall in this forest?” “A little, distance back. I carried you here We fell down a rocky slope.” . “Oh!” She remained silent a little, evidently 'trying to remember. Then she smiled. ' “You have been wonderfully good to me. You know I trusted you the ruinate I saw you, and I wasn’t the least bit frightened,' waking up and' finding myself alone here iii -the forest with you.” ■ “I hope you will be able to bear the waiting here,” said Lee. "We'll go bn just as soon as it's possible." “But I’m not really In any hurry,” the girl answered. It -was odd how teeonciled she seemed to be now, and bow the future had ceased to trouble her. “It’s so glorious to be in the woods again, nnd at this time of the year above everything. It’s such a long time since I was in the woods be fore. I’ve been living in a big city, you know—nothing but blocks of houses and asphalt and stone. I felt like a prisoner there.” And Lee wondered again at her ac quiescence in this new turn of fate. “Now—may I wash that cut in your head and tie it. for you?” “Yes, doctor,” she smiled at him. He boiled the bandage, washed the cut in boiled water, and retied the strip of cotton about it. The girl was still too weak to. talk very much. But it was the most wonderful thing that Iiad ever happened to him, sitting there with her in that intimate com panionship, forgetting that she had been at odds with him, putting aside all the memories of conflict, forgetting, too, that she was a woman, seeing in her only a comrade. After awhile Lee made some cakes in the ashes of the fire, and cooked some bacon. Tiie girl was able to eat a little, and he felt his appetite re turning. Undoubtedly he had gone through the worst of it. Again they sat in silence, till the girl said : Do you know, I have forgotten your name!” He had not told her, but he said, ■“Lee Anderson.” Anderson was a! common enough name in the district, and would convey nothing to her. And as she seemed still-to be fret- ing or puzzling, Lee laid his hand on liers and said: “You musn’t worry. IVe shall go on just as soon as it’s possible to.” “That’s just what I’ye been wonder ing about,” she answered. “It’s very “Where Am I? What Has Happened?” She Asked. silly of me, but—where is it that we are going?” And, as. Lee looked at her in as tonishment, she went on: ‘It’s curious, you know, Mr. Ander son; but I don’t 3 eem exactly to re member where we met, either, or why I left that place—where was it? That big city whose name’s slipped my memory for the moment. Nor why we came to the 'woods—came back to the woods, you know,” she corrected. ‘And then, who am* I? I had my name on, the tip of my tongue a mo ment ago,- and Flf know soon, I sup pose, but it’s—just now it all seems to be confused, somehow.” And then Lee realized that Btr memory of the past was completely obliterated. , CHAPTER VIII While Memory Slept No, the girl had not cqmpletely for gotten, for It was not exactly a blank to her. .Sbe had a vague , recollection of a number of things, but everything appeared to be shadowy and con fused, and when she tried to piece it together, the fragments slipped out of her grasp. It was in names and places that the lapse chiefly occurred, including her own identity, and it was this fact that save Lee cause for meditation. ' She had lived in the forests in child hood, she seemed to recall a visit to them of recent years; at any rate, she had all the woodcraft of one to' whom the forest was home. She had been educated in a convent, she thought, and had been living for sev eral years In. a large city, studying. She thought she had been studying to be a medical missionary among the Indians. .. - ■ Thus she .was not cut pff frojf that association ,of habits, tastes, ^tmd ex periences that goes to; make the per sonality ; she did not feel tbat she had lost very much, and It was always as if she were upon the point of remem bering everything. Out of this vague, blurred dream; She bad awakened to find herself in the woods With Lee, without the knowl edge of how or why she had come there. It might have been the. concussion from the fall, but Lee, after pondering over the case, decided that it was much more like a case of shell-shock, and that the injury to Iier head had been only a contributing cause. He made her a crutch next morning, and by the afternoon, she felt well enough to hobble a few steps about the camp. The accident which had temporarily ungeared her memory, seemed to have wrought a strange change in her nature. She was no longer wildly anxious to push on to her destination; she accepted Lee as a fact in Iier life, and showed how com pletely she trusted him, despite the intimacy in which they were botli living. , He was sm F that her memory would suddenly come back to her com pletely. And, memory did come back In dreams, as with shell-shocked pa tients, but only to vanish with the waking. At night Lee. lying near her beneath another rough shelter of houghs that he had made‘for himself, would hear her tossing and moaning, and occas ionally uttering fragments of unintel ligible sentences. Day merged into day. Lee’s rib was healing well, and the girl was begin ning to set her foot to the ground. At first she was dependent upon him in nearly everything. He helped her to take her first steps without the crutch, leaning upon his shoulder. They were always together. It was so wonderful a companion ship. It was that comradeship of which Lee had always dreamed. And it was the more wonderful, perhaps, because, the girl’s severance from the past gave it a sort of unreality, as if it were a little piece of paradise which they had snatched for themselves out of the sum total of human happiness. Soon she began to assume charge of the camp and the cooking. And Lee, lying at her feet, listening while she talked, or lying awake at night be neath his shelter, in the dread of hear ing her moan, came at Ia0Jt to realize that his feeling for her was becoming something more than the mere enjoy ment of her companionship. He loved her, he sometimes admit ted to himself; and when a word or glance of his would send the blood marftling into her cheek, he "dared to think that his love was returned. And now he cared no longer whether her memory of the past ever came back to her. Almost better, to let her live in ignorance of all that ‘had dis tressed her. He began to dread the inevitable day when remembrance would come to blot out thqjr paradise. Only a little incident would be needed, some little shock that would knit the rav eled ends of memory, and then— Then what would lie before them? Another thing to be apprehended was the day. so near, now, when they must leave their woodland paradise. Autumn had returned wonderfully, but there was a sharper tang in the air each morning, everything was dead and ice formed every night upon the pool beneath their little spring. And it seemed now as if Lee’s search for PelIy would have to be pro tracted through the winter months. If his Inquiries at the mission proved fruitless, it would mean returning to Little Falls for a sleigh and dogs. Then (here was the matter of the Free Traders. Lee would find his hands full soon enough. “Do you know, Lee,” said the girl one day, “I often feel' as if I were on the very verge of remembering. And when I wake in the morning, just for an instant I feel a different person, as if I had remembered. And I am hfraid of remembering. It is as if re membrance would bring back some thing terrible with it. Who am I?” “You are just you,” said Lee, smil ing. “That’s enough for me." “Where did we meet?” “In the range.” “I was alone? And then I had an accident and was thrown from my horse? And you, too? It is so strange. I know that I lived in a large city not long ago, and that I was so glad to get-back to the woods. But where was I riding? That’s the big prob lem that we. have to solve, isn’t it?” She looked at him earnestly. “Lee,” she said solemnly, “sometimes 'I hope never shall remember.” She made no plans, leaving every thing to Lee, and nothing was decided. By the middle of the second week, she could walk fairly well, her strength had come back, and the little period of elysium was drawing to its end. It was inevitable that the problem should he faced. , For the first time she had accom panied Lee as far as the lake shore. There Iiad been no signs of the Free Traders, and Lee was convinced, that they had long since abandoned all hope of finding- them. .It was a won derful evening. There was a haze of. Indian summer In the November air, there was still a touch of fire In the leaves of birch and maple; the west' was radiant with the sunset clouds. And. standing there beside her, Lee knew at last—knew for sure that this Ioye was eternal, and , the. former love only the pale, shadow that it had cast' before.lt. He turned, toward her and read the same knowledge hi her eyes. “Deatvr-” he said. ' . , He took , her in his arms; and she lay there, confident, happy in the knowledge that she was. his.. • She put her arms about hls neck and their Ups met. And they looked at each other in all the thrill and glory and surprise of it. It was ,all so simple, so incredibly dear and true.' “You, woman of mine, without a name, who have come to me out of nowhere because I wanted you! How long Iiave you known?” "I’ve known almost since the begin ning that if you eared as much as I do, Lee, you must,love me more than I thought it possible to love.” . He looked , at her incredulously, and between them the pale wraith of Es telle floated for just a moment. He had trusted her. He had vowed never to trust again In any woman. Then It was dissipated in the sun shine of their love. “Do you care enough to trust yourself to me and take t-he chance of what the future may bring to us?” “I love yqu enough to trust you alto gether, Lee,” she answered. Bnt there was just the shadow of a little fear in her eyes. “Oh, my dear, I am afraid, awfully afraid of the time when—when I remember. Do you know that since I knew I loved you, and thought you cared for me, have sometimes prayed that I may never remember? I have been afraid of wiiat may be lying in wait for us, waiting to overwhelm us, as If it grudged our happiness.” You must not let yourself grow morbid.” But Lee, too, felt the wings of that , shadow of fear beat past him. There' is nobody else?” he asked. IVe shall not find that we have been tricked like-that? It would be unbear able.” No, no! I’m sure of that, Lee; surer than that I stand here, that I ■have never loved anybody else. I know that so well, Lee; for if there had been, I should have felt it by instinct, however deep down wdthin me the memory of him lay buried. No, love isn’t like that; it doesn’t lose it self like that. There is nobody but you—never anybody but you. “But what I’m afraid of Is that something else, something terrible may come between us—” “There’s nothing else that pould separate us.” . “If you were engaged?” Lee would no sooner have deliberately stolen an other man’s sweetheart than his wife. To him love was a thing of eternity. It was either a very young man’s view or a very idealistic one’s; yet there are men of mature minds who hold that doctrine; tbat was why the af fair of Estelle had broken his life. “Suppose I had become engaged to someone I didn’t, love, Lee?” “You couldn’t. You don't think”— she felt thrilled by the consternation In his voice—“that yon—you have, dearest?” “No, I—I’m sure I haven’t. But,” she persisted, “i just felt curious to know what we would do, In case.” “Oh, then—why, I suppose we’d have to go to him and tell him that we loved each other, and then, of course, he would release you,” answered Lee, looking troubled. “Still, we don’t have to think of that possibility, dear, do we!" “Of course not, Lee,” she answered. ‘ But again he saw that she knit her brows in perplexity, and he knew that she was thinking, thinking, trying to reunite those ravelled strands of mem- ory. “You don’t live In the range, Lee, do you?” asked the girl presently. “No, I live at Manistree. That’s a long distance away. I’ve just come here on business." “Won’t you tell me what your busi ness is?” Lee hesitated. “Well, it’s secret in a way, though I’m not under any pledge." His instincts were to tell her, and yet the training of eight years seemed to seal his lips against her. “You see, I’m acting for others.” "Why, then of course I. wouldn’t ask you to tell me, Lee,” she answered. “Oply I have a curious sort of feeling that your business may be bound up with me in some way, tliat perhaps it means your going into danger.” “I don’t think there’s much danger attached to it.” But she caught that “much" with alarm. “A little danger, Lee? You know, I couldn’t bear you being ex posed to danger. But—what is there beyond the range? You see, I’ve been talking to you about the range ever since I first heard you speak of it, and yet I don’t really know where we are. It’s curious, too, because for the first week after my illness, I didn’t seem to care. Is there a city beyond the range?” “No, thank God, all the cities He behind us. Nothing but forest.” lBut are you going to see gomeone, meet someone?” ‘‘^here's a Moravian mission three or four days’ jotirhey away.” ''Oh,'are you going there?”' She was still unsatisfied, still looking at him in that wistful way. Yes,. I am going to take you there, dear, and leave you In the care of Father-McGrath, who is in charge of it, while I am away. He will take good care of you; He Is a fine man, and well known for his work .among the Indians. When Hie old prigst died last winter, Father McGrath was sent for, all the way from Labrador to take his place. “I think ” he added, “that we shall be able to start In three or four days now. We want to be off before the weather changes'.” ■ “How long will yon be away, Lee?” “Perhaps a week-^or longer,” And he wondered, as: he spoke whether it would be a week—or a whole winter. , HS held her hands and looked into her eyes, “Have you faith enough In me to be willing to wait quietly- there even if—If I should be gone for mow Idian a week?" he asked.. “Till you return, Ho matter bo9 long. Led,” she answered simply. “Even if you remembered? No matter what you remember?” “Even if I should reinember. But, Lee”—the note of fear came into her voice again—“when the *tlme comes that I remember, I want you with me, I am 50 oppressed sometimes—when 5 awake in the morning, always. I seem to have been traveling in my dreams all night In horrible places, among hateful people. I seem to have some terrible duty laid upon me, something that I must carry out, al though it kUls me. And then—I awake to you. "But one thing I know beyond ev erything in the world, and that is that there could never■have blen anyone but you, Lee, dearest; never in the whole world. So take me, Lee, and shield me with your love, and be all In this world to me, for I shall never love anyone but you.” 4Tll take you to the mission, dear, and when I come back, I shall take you south with me, and you shall for get all your fears,” answered Lee. So they put their troubles aside, and all the uncertainties of the future, and were sublimely happy In their love. Yet, happy as he was, Lee realized that it would be well for them when he had - placed her In the care of Father McGrath at the mission. Only then would the load of anxiety be re moved from him. 4 CHAPTER IX Joyce Comes Home In the middle of the night a wild storm sprang up, bringing with It a driving snow. Its violence blew down their two shelters almost simultane ously, involving them in a debris of boughs and branches. They made light of their troubles. Lee succeeded In getting some sort of protection' up, and the remainder ■ of that night they crouched beneath it, happy, in spite of the snow that piled up all about them. When morning came, they looked out on a white world. It was freez ing hard, and the spring had dwindled to a thread in a basin of ice. Lee very quickly had a fire burning and tea ready. But It looked as if winter had come to stay. They had had a rude awakening from their para dise. It seemed essential to push on as soon as possible. In fact, without snowshoes they were likely to find themselves seriously inconvenienced in the event of a heavy fall. Lee meant to prosecute his in quiries at the mission, and, In case nothing came of these, to go to Little Falls, load up, and then return. “I’m sure I’m 'well enough to start today, Lee,” said the girl that' morn ing, as they discussed the situation. “We could start off slowly, you see, and then If it did snow heavily, it w-ould be much. more of a strain on me later on, without snowshoes, than now, when the traveling is easy, wouldn’t it! So we ought to try to get to the mission within a day or two.” ^ Lee agreed, and they decided to push on slowly that day by the trail beside the lake. The mission was near the head of the lake, about two days’ journey away. Most of the contents of the pack were left behind. Lee had to travel as light as possible; but fortunately,- his rib was fairly set, and the tight bandage which he wore around it eliminated serious danger of its breaking again. . When they stopped, for the noon meal they had several miles to their credit. The girl’s knee had given her no trouble, and both were jubilant. That day they covered 4 good fifteen miles—almost a short day’s journey. When they camped, the girl said: "Do you know, Lee, I am almost certain that I have passed this way before. It all looks somehow familiar to me, and yet somehow as if I'd seen it. In a dream. You remember that big rock we passed in the middle of the stream? Well, I had a feeling all the time that we should come to it as we rounded the bend.” “And you have no idea whether^ you ever lived in this region or not?” he asked. ,“No, dear. I’m inclined to think, though, that I .may have done so. Per haps I was at SChooL at that very mis sion yon spoke of.; If I was, someone there will be SUre to recognize me. I’ve got a feeling that I was studying in some big city—Montreal or Winni peg, perhaps, to take up medical mis sion work here.” H ow ’s Your L Sri Ogretta, N.

To show that it m eant it, the House of the Legislature twice knocked on the head the bill to pen sion State Treasurer Lacy, Kepre sentative Turlington of . Iredell be ing among the knockers. The bill is not only dead for the time, but it is hoped that its death will held to prevents revival of such indefen sible, schemes in future legislatures. The proposition to retire Mr Lacy on two thirds pav. $3 000 per year, was about the baldest measure that that has been presented to the Leg islature in a long time, and that' >s putting it strong, for some rank measure are occasionally presented, with a brazenness that is cause for wonder. Mr/ Lacy is a prominent and popular State office; he has held office for 25 years. He is now old and in feeble health. The inference j is that he is also poor in this world’s goods, but. exact information on that point is lacking. But to make him entirely comfortable, simply because he is a popular man and a good fel- 1 jw, it was urged that he be given a pension (that is what the “ retire m ent” pav meant in plain English) of $3,000 a year. T he. urge to do Mr Lacy this special favor—it was favoritism so rank that the odor perm eated'the State—was heighten ed bv the fact that the Lacy “ retire m ent” would make a most desirable vacany. Politicians—some of them —have no scruble whatever in doub ling up pay to secure a place on the pivroll Lacv’s claim was absolu tely without basis in anvthing except, sentiment; and if all the people who have served the Slate and who mav be old and feeble are to be thus li berally provided for, the taxpa.iers will feel an extra burden. The added shame of this theasury raid was the fact that there are num bers of men who have served the State in its hour of (lire need, who risked their lives and gave "their ail in that service, who are now old ang 'feehle and -n need, for whom the State has rai'ed and refused Cu pro vide the" bare necessities pf life When one thinks of the dire need of Confederate veterans unprovided for and then contemplates that scheme to give a man who has held public office at a good selary for a quarter of a century, three thousand dollars a year position, the infamv of it so outrages that it.is imp< s-ible to dis cuss it calmly. As for Lac>, who was not only willing to take it. but was asking for it—oh, wel1, possibly the man knew not what he did — Statesville Daily " -A v H . W - *»• I A N D H O M E S F O R SALE.
