the probable successor to Postmaster

assassinated. President Roosevelt re-

and more difficult track which lay along

and more difficult track which lay along
the moraine.
Before he had gone three PAGES along
this track his eye made out something
just off his path and little below it
which caused him at first to utter a snarl
of anger but led him the next moment
to give wild, blasphemous yell of joy.
The great tissure which had opened in
the Ice had done In an instant what the
party from the Aurora had failed to do
after hours of hard labor-it had yielded
up the body OF Perry Hunter, which, dur
ing all these months. 1t had kept i'm
prisoned.
The sight of il was no new thing to
Roscoe. He had seen it a score of times.
buried deep down in that eternal Ice. The
sight had cost him no qualms. 80 long
as no ghosts came back to haunt him he
could survey the murdered body OF one
of his victims with no more emotion than
a polar bear would feel In similar cir
cumstances But that the ice. which had
apparently meant to keep 1t forever,
should discharge it thus. gratuitously,
into his very path. affronted him; seemed
like a piece OF insulting mockery on the
SHIPPED for god
But that feeling lasted only the period
of one brief glance and then changed to
saturnine joy. For. strapped across the
dead mans shoulders, just where he had
carried it in life. was rife and round
The next instant Roscoe was bending
over the body. jerking savagely at the
frozen buckles, which resisted his i'm
patient fingers. But they would not be
denied. IL they were clumsy the hands
were strong.
1t was not five minutes later when
Roscoe. rifle and ammunition belt in his
hands. was hurrying on toward his cave
once more. The body lay just where his
desecrating hands had left 1t.
The rife was uninjured: that he had
seen at a glance. though. of course, all
the mechanism of it's breech was frozen
fast. But a half hours hard work with
cleaning rod and rags of what once had
been a shirt sufficed to put 1t into COM
mission again.
Then with the rifle over his shoulder,
he staggered out of the cave. With his
first glance abroad he started. His devil
was being kind to him today. There
could be doubt of that Only. was
he being too kind? Roscoe wondered a
little uneasily. For. shambling along the
ice. through the thickening twilight not
a hundred PAGES away, was big bear
Roscoe was tired of walrus meat. The
thought of bear steak made his mouth
water.
Three years disuse, however. had made
