PATENT. OFFICE is FLOODED.

Press Of inventions Leads to Demand
for Larger Quarters.
The inventive breed is not dying out
in America. The commissioner of
patents at Washington calls loudly for
larger quarters. more clerks and big
ger pay for overworked examiners.
There is such a flood OF new devices
pouring into the patent office as was
never seen before. The examiners are
fairly swamped and are a full year
behind in their work.
Naturally enough; motors and sub
marine and aerial navigating devices
lead the list. Modern man insists
upon flying, and the inventor who, adds
speed to his passing to and fro upon
the earth. in the air, or in or under
the water is certain of his reward.
The inventors are no believers in
the early coming Of peace among the
nations, for improvements upon weap-
ons and new explosives are well nigh
as numerous as new motors. Yet with
all this cunning for gain and racing
for fame on the part Of the inventors
the chances are that some unconsid-
cred trifie like the wooden ball with a
rubber string or the globe catch for
women's purses will win the largest
rewards In the future as In the past.

CHAPTER xxx.

What of Alexis?
On the morning on which Lillian
awaited Mrs. Billery on the platform
at Victoria he sat at breakfast with
two or three newspapers within reach
on the floor beside him. He had
skinned one for it's general news, but
he had gone carefully through the
Partisan intelligence of all of them,
and had found no word of Lepelletier.
So another day had gone by and the
doomed wretch had said nothing to
involve others in his own ruin.
He could do nothing for himself, of
course, and he had no outer induce
ment to harm anybody He had no
revenge to wreak upon Alexis, who
had yielded to his demands without so
much as a word of protest. There
was just the possible risk that in a
sort of wild beast rage he might de-
termine to spread devastation round
him. That was all. But Alexis was
curiously sensitive DO risk and he had
cultivated the tendency to look out for
danger signals. He had had long Pc
RODS of respite, years when he had
been free of all fear of active interior
ence. His soul was a shallow little
pool in which any flaw of wind could
raise tempest which subsidized as
soon as it's cause ceased to act.
He was settling down into security
again. The absence of alarming news
from Paris had a disproportionate
value for him. AS a matter Of fact, it
meant nothing, and less than nothing.
Lepelletier had weeks and weeks OF
life before him, and If he were going
to speak at all might speak now on q
month from now. But it did so happen
that he was unusually gay and light
hearted that morning. There are men
who are SO constituted that they can
suffer agonies of remorse at intervals
when. anything occurs to remind them
of wrongdoing, and can be cheerful
and even vivacious between whiles.

THE GRAND TRUNK PACIFIC RAIL,
ROAD AND WESTERN CANADA.
Wal Open Up Immense Area Of Free
Homestead Lands.

The railway facilities of Western
Canada have been taxed to the ut,
termost in recent years to transfer
the surplus grain crop to the eastern
markets and the seaboard. The large
influx of settlers and the additional
area put under crop have added large
~ to the grain product, and notwith
standing the increased railway facil
tiles that have been placed at the dis.
posal of the public. the question OF
transportation has proved to be So
fious one.
1t will, therefore. be good news to
everyone interested in Western Can.
ada to know that an authoritative
statement has been given out by G.
". Hays. president of the Grand
Trunk Pacific Railway, that that rail.
way will do its share towards moving
the crop of 1907 from Alberta, Sas.
tatchewan and Manitoba to tide water,
and thus assist in removing a serious
obstacle which has faced the settlers
during recent years. Mr.. Hays, who
has just completed trip from Port
age Ia Prairie to Edmonton in a prai-
RE schooner, a distance of 735 miles,
which was covered In eighteen days,

This will be gratifying to settlers in
the Canadian West, even if Mr.. Hays
declines to be bound to time limit
with the exactitude Of stop-watch.
The Grand Trunk Pacific road will be

portation Of the crop of 1907, and that

The wheat crop of 1906 in Western
Canada was about 100000 bushels,
and. with the increased acreage which
ts confidently expected to be put un-
der crop next year. it is safely calcu-
lated that fully 125.000,0 bushels will
be harvested in 1907 The necessity
for increased transportation facilities
