The story opens with the shipwreck OF
the steamer on which Miss Geneyisvc

The three were tossed upon an uninhab-
tied island and were the only ones not

as preserver of the helpless pair. The
Englishman was suing for the hand OF
Miss Leslie. Winthrope wasted his last
match on a cigarette, for which he was
scored by Blake. All three constructed
hats to shield themselves from the sun.
procurable food. Miss Leslie showed
liking for Blake. but detested his rough
ness. Led by Blake, they established a
home in some cliffs. Blake found fresh
water spring. Miss Leslie faced an un-
pleasant situation. Blake recovered his

eggs from the cliffs. Miss Leslie's white

tween Blake and Winthrope. Miss Leslie
became frightened: Winthrope became

Gulls and terms circled about them
or lowered over the water ready to
swoop down upon their finny prey.
Sandpipers ran along the beach within
a stones throw, but the curlews
showed their greater knowledge of
mankind by keeping beyond gunshot.
Once a great flock of geese drove
high overhead, their leader honking
the alarm as they swept above the
suspicious figures on the beach. Like
the curlews, they had knowledge of
mankind. But the flock of white
pelicans which came sailing along in
stately leisure on their immense
wings floated past so low that Blake
felt certain he could shoot one. He
raised his bow and took aim, but re-
Trained from shooting at the thought
that it might be sheer waste of his
precious poison.
A little later a herd of large ami
mails appeared on the border of the
grass jungle, but wheeled and dashed
back into cover so quickly that Blake
barely had time to make out that they
were buffaloes-the first he had seen
on this coast, but easily recognized by
their resemblance to the Cape va
riety. Their flight gave him small
concern; for the time being he was
more interested In topography than
game.
The southern headland now lay
| close before them, its seaward face
rearing up sheer and lofty, but the
| approach behind running down in
broken terraces. Mid-morning found
| the explorers at the foot of the ridge.
Blake squinted up at the bowlder-
strewn slopes and the crannies of the
broken ledges.
Likely place for snakes, Miss Jen-
n.y." he remarked. Guess I'd better
| lead"
Eager as she was to look over into
the country beyond, the girl dropped
into second place and made no COM
| plant about the wary slowness of
her companions advance. She found
the most difficult parts of the ascent
quite easy after her training on the
tree-ladder. Blake could have taken
lodges and all at a run, but as he
mounted each terrace he halted to spy
out the ground before him. Like Miss
Leslie, he was looking for snakes,
though for an exactly opposite reason.
He wished to add to the contents of
the cigarette case.
Greatly to his disappointment and
the girls relief neither snake nor sign
of snake was to be seen all the way
up the ridge. AS they neared the
crest Blake turned to offer her his
hand up the last ledges, and in the
instant they gained the top.
The wind, now freshening to a gale,
struck the girl with such force that
she would have been blown back
down the lodges had not Blake
cGutched her wrist. Needless alike of
the painful grip which held her and
of the gusts which tore at her skirt,
the girl stood gazing out across the
desolate swamps which stretched
away to the southwest as far as the
eye could see. She did not speak
until Blake led her down behind the
shelter of the crest ledges.

much cooler than l expected"
But our new hats beat all for that
regular sunshades. What do you
say?-there's a good breeze Let's
take a hike"
Not to the river! The very thought
of that dreadful snake"
"No; just the other way. I've been
thinking for some time that we ought
to run down to that south headland
and take a squint at the coast be-
yond. Ten to one it's another stretch
of swamps, but"
You think there is a hance we
may find a town."
About one chance in a million,
even for a native village. The slave
trade wiped the niggers off this coast,
and | guess those that hit out up
country ran so hard they haven't been
able to get back yet"
But it has been years since the
slave trade was forbidden"
"And they don't sell beer in Kansas
oh, no! I'll bet the dhows still slip
over from Madagascar when the moon
is in the right quarter. At any rate,
niggers are mighty scarce or mighty
shy around here. I've kept a watch
for smoke, and haven't seen a sus-
picion of it anywhere. Maybe the
swamps swing around inland and cut
off this strip of coast 1t looked that
way to me when l made that trip
along the ridge. But there's chance
it used to be inhabited, and we may
run across an abandoned village"
II do not see that the discovery
would do us any good"
How about the chance of grain or
bananas still growing? But that's all
a guess. We're going because we
need change"
She nodded and fastened to pre-
pare breakfast, while he packed a skin
bag with food and examined the slen-
der tips of his arrows. AS a matter
of precaution, he had been keeping
them in the cigarette case, where the
points would be certain of coat OF
the sticky poison and at the same time
guarded against inficting a chance
wound. But as he was now about to
set out on a journey he fitted tips into
the heads of his two straightest
shafts.
The morning was still fresh when
they closed the barricade behind them
and descended to the pool. There was
no game in sight, but Blake had nc
wish to hunt at the commencement
of the trip. The steady southwest
wind had blown the sky clear Of its
malarial haze and gave promise OF 9
day which should know nothing oi
sultry calm-a day on which game
would be hard to stalk, but one per
fectly suited for long tramp.
Mindful. of ticks, Blake headed OBJ
liquely across to the beach. Once or
the smooth, hard sand, they swung
along at a brisk pace, light-hearteo
and keen with the spirit of adventure
Never had they felt more compan
ionable. Miss Leslie laughed anC

ing From Courtroom

OAKLAND, July 29.-Mrs. Ella Har
gems, leader of the gang of shop
lifters arrested two weeks ago for the
robbery of stores in several coast
cities, broke her left wrist this, fore
noon by falling down an inside stair
case leading from department 1 of the
police court to the Jail below the city
liceman McKeegan, to whom she COM
planned of the darkness of the stair

the gang. They are being examined on
charge of stealing wearing apparel
from Hale Brothers store at Eleventh
and Washington streets. During the
forenoon Mrs. Hargens, sitting by her
attorney. George McDonough, watched
the proceedings and the crowd ear
nestly. 1t was evident she sought
sympathy.
She resumed her silent appeal this
afternoon with her arm bandaged and
her face red and swollen. She broke
down while some of the testimony was
taken.
F. II. Walters, manager of Hale's.
and e. L. Toomey, department man
ager, identified several articles stolen
from the store. Corroboratory evidence
was given by these men of the con-
fession which the woman made to De-
tectiVe Hodgkins and which will be
told tomorrow when the examination
is continued before Judge Samuels.
Mrs. M. E. French. who occupied a
room at TAI Eighth street adjoining
that of the shoplifters. testified to a
conversation she overheard. She told
of Mrs. Hargens berating her male
pals for their lack of skill and of
the woman's exclamation:
Take me in there and I'll show you
what good stalling is

CONSERVATION FUSS
Hot Fight Expected to Develop
in Annual Convention OF
American Congress

DENVER, July 29.-Charging that
bills Nos. 54S4 and 54S6 to 5492 in
elusive, introduced at the last session
of congress, will, if adopted, seriously
retard western mining development and
add to the already heavy burdens of
mining men. Western mining men are
planning a strenuous fight againstithese
measures at the annual session of the
American mining congress to be held
In Los Angeles, beginning September 20.
The official call for this meeting was
issued at the Denver headquarters to-
day and 5000 delegates are expected to
attend, representing the important min
ing centers in the United States, Can
ada, Mexico and Alaska.
1t was announced at the headquarters
or the mining congress that the con-
servation policy would receive big
share of the attention of the congress
and an endeavor would be made to
learn the true attitude of the west on
dhis question. A bitter fight is expected
to result, as for weeks sentiment among
the mining men has been actively form
ing in opposition to what are termed
the Wickersham-N Nelson policies
concerning the development of water
powers and disposition of mineral
lands.
The leaders expected to speak against
the measures are Senator's Borah and
Hepburn of Idaho, Senator Perkins of
California and Congressman Bartlett of
Nevada
The most energetic advocates of the
Roosevelt conservation policy, including
Clifford Pinchot, James r. Garfield, for
mer Governor Pardee of California, and
Others are also expected to address the
delegates

Especial Dispatch 10 The Call
SAN JOSE. July 29.-That in three of
the districts of the county last evening
opposition republican caucuses were
held was brought to light here today
when A. A. Caldwell. secretary of the
county central committee, received the
credentials of two sets of delegates
from each. The districts wherein the
fighting took place were Los Gatos.
Berryessa and the second ward, San
Jose.
How many more of the districts had
double caucuses has not been deter
mined. Just what factions are at
swords point is another thing not de-
termined.
The secretary does not know and it
is probable that the county central
committee will not deem itself compe-
tent to decide just who is who among
the delegates elected, and 1t may be
that when the republican county con-
vention is held in this city August 27
two sets of delegates claiming ito rep
resent each district will appear to make
things lively.

WESTERN FEDERATION
DOWNS REFERENDUM
Miners Defeat Plan to Dust
President Meyer

DENVER, Colo, July 29.-The West
ern federation of miners voted down a
proposition to elect officers by refer
endum vote today. 1t was limited that
the proposed change was primarily for
the purpose of defeating President
Charles II. Meyer for reelection The
scheme was to have the convention
nominate two candidates for the posi-
tion and submit their names to the
unions for vote as to choice. The one
receiving the highest vote was to have
been declared president by the execu-
tive board.
In the meantime Meyer would con-
tinue in the Office until announcement
of the unions choice was made. The
proposition. made in the form of reso-
luton, was overwhelmingly defeated.
The convention also voted an assess
ment against each member of one
shifts pay for the organization fund.
The total to be realized in this way is
estimated at s2S000O
