buffalo TO the government. These are
all fine specimens, and the proposition
now is TO place them in the Wichita

believe that, with the protection which
can be thrown about them in a gov

buffaloes were so numerous that they
were killed by the thousands every

started in life without any wealth or
family influence to push him along.
His father was a farmer in small
way, but with big ideas as to the
value of education and he saw to it
that his boy got good one. When 1t
came to the choice of a profession, the
lad elected medicine and obtained his
NJ. ID. degree from the University of
Edinburgh.
Being of an adventurous spirit and
anxious to see something of the world
instead Of hanging out his shingle in
some country town and waiting for pa
tents to turn up he booked himself at
the colonial office and was appointed
government medical officer Mt Sey-
chelles in 1873. A year later he was
transferred TO Port Louis on the Isle
Of Maurltius and in 1875 was made
chief medical officer for Fiji.
1t was at Fiji he proved himself a
hero. The ship Syria, freighted with
coolies and their families, was wreck
ed on the Nasilai reef. He organized
the relief party and took command Of
it. Repeatedly he swan to the wreck,
returning each time with a man or
woman on his back and sometimes
with a child in addition gripped by its
clothes between his teeth. In this
way he saved himself no less than 20
lives 1t was feat that only a man

name.
1t was at Fiji, too, that his talents
as an administrator We're first discov-
cred and he was appointed receiver
general of the islands. That opened
up a new career to him and he gave
up doctoring sick folk. In 1888 he
was made administrator of British
New Guinea. The New Guinea ma
tives are about the worst lot of saw
ages under the control of the British
crown, most of them regarding it as a
waste of human life to Stay a man
without subsequently dining upon
him. But for ten years he ran the
British part of that big island, leaving

spicuous example of what can be ac-
complished among the most intracta-

of firmness and moderation

and blacks and winning the esteem of

Dan Lapham rose to his feet and
walked to where Sankala was sitting.

Sankala's word was law with Dan

Captain Budlong returned with hie

made full report. They were duly

CHAPTER XVI.
After Twenty Years.

A steamboat was gliding down the
Columbia. 1t was crowded with pas
sengers, gaily dressed in summer attire.
Children were running about the
deck playing and shouting. A band
dispersed music in the large dining
room. Lovers were talking silly, just
as they always do on steamboats,. Men
were playing cards and drawing at
their cigars in the smoking room.
Local passengers were pointing out the
important landmarks along the river
and relating the history of the same to
tourists from the East.
1t was just twenty years after the
war between the southside and north
side fishermen at the mouth of the
river. Time had wrought its great
changes here as at other points in the
great Pacific Northwest. Popular sum-
mer resorts had been built up on the
beach of the ocean on the south and
north sides of the river. Great crowds
docked to these points every year. The
rivalry of the olden times still existed.
1t was not over tie fishing industry
now for that was established through
the process of hatcheries aided by the
two states, and had become one of the
stable institutions of the country.
The people now claimed supremacy
in advancement and superiority of sum-
mer resorts. Seaside" on the south
claimed it was the best on the coast.
Long Beach" on the north claimed it
was the "Long Beach" of the Pacific.
The boat was steaming for the north
side resort. 1t was the pride of it's
owners and the idol of its crew. 1t cut
the water like knife and rode the
waves with the stateliness of a queen.
In beautiful golden letters it bore
the name "Sankala."
The boat had just rounded the upper
point of Sand island. A middle aged
man and woman were seated side by
side on the upper deck locking out on
the water. They were casually con-
versing about the different landmarks
along the island and north shore.
DO you remember that placer" in

you from the wound, but You know it

The couple went on discussing mat
tiers tamiliarly as the boat steamed
across the river to the north shore.
DO you see that man and woman"
inquired citizen to tourist whom he
had met on the boat. "WelI. they

world. This boat is named for the
woman. Her maiden name was San.

kala SaaIela. Her present name lie
Lapham. That Is her husband sitting
by her side. They own large proper
ties on the beach but make their home
in the city. They have a summer
home on the beach and come down
every year. This is their first trip this
season.
THAT town over there, together with
the waterwoiks and electric light plant
belongs to them. They also own the
beach railroad. There lie small COM
pany of them. But they are immensely
wealthy. Lapham IL the president OF
the company and fellow by the name
OF Budlong is the secretary and treas
uieT.
"Mrs. Lapham was washed ashore
from q wreck at this very point when q
small baby. The story is very ro-
mantle. An old man was also saved
from the wreck. 1t turned out that he
was bringing the child's mother and
father here from Russia to recover
fortune from rich man by the name
of Seadog who then owned this place.
The mother and father were drowned
off that sand island out there and the
old man reared the child.
"a waI arose between the north side
and south side fishermen when the girl
was nearly twenty years old and che
being familiar with the river life took
part with the northsiders and during
the excitement, when a boat load of
soldiers had arrived and treacherous
pilot had jumped overheard in storm,
seized the wheel and took the soldiers
to the rescue of her friends, and though
she was wounded while guiding the
boat did not make it known until after
the riot had been quelled.
GAS a remarkable coincidence old
man Seadog was wounded in the same
fight and died from the effects of his
wound, but not until he had made res
titution OF the property coming to the
girl.
at was case of a girl making a
woman of herself and also making a
man of common fisherman. When
the girl came into her property she
compelled her sutton, her present bus
band, to wait until she could obtain
an education and to also obtain one
himself before she would marry him."
The boat at this juncture blew its
whistle for the landing. The woman
who had been the subject of the pas
senger's story called to a handsome lad
in his early teens, and said:
"Come, Ringwold, my con. and be
ready to go ashore"
AS the boat swung around against the
wharf man and his wife were there to
welcome them.
Dear Hazel is as pretty as ever"
said Mrs. Lapham.
"And Budlong still retains his sol
dielly bearing" replied her husband. "
