ATKINSON FIGURES AS STORY HERO

Attorney A. l.. c. Atkinson picked
up the August number of Pearson's
magazine the other day and began
reading q story named THAT Valny
Affair" Pretty soon he opened his
eyes wider, gasped in establishment
and began to hunt Tor the nearest mir
ror.
He had recognized himself as one
of the principal characters in the
story. .H. 81. H.ff
The scene is laid in Dalny. and the
story deals with the recruiting OF
plantation laborers among the Rus
slams there by the Hawaiian govern
ment. The two chief Characters arr
Billy Charrington. the agent of the
Territorial government who goes aft
er the Russian laborers, ana a young
chap named Bacon, who started In the
diplomatic service as a student inter-
prefer and was sent to Dalny to act
as consul until some one was dis
patched to take his place. The plot
has to do with Russian officer who
attempts to prevent Charrington from
getting his laborers aboardship, with
French waitress who plays import
ant part in the blocking OF the officer,
and with Bacon and Charrington's
joint campaign against the military
efforts TO stop them
Charrington Is described as large

man with broad shoulders, well-ft-
ting gray clothes and soft crusher
hat. He had broad. Intelligent face,
tight lips, twinkling eyes, light hair,
ana n coat of tan which seemed burn
ed deep into the hesh." II was this
description that started Atkinson on
his still hunt for a mirror, to identity
himself. 3
Other points in the story leave no
doubt of the fact that the author had
drawn his character of Charrington
direct from the local man. Charrng-
ton Is Michigan university man:
SO is Atkinson. Even some of Atkin-
sons pet phrases have been borrow
ed. Everybody who knows the at
torney has heard his frequent use of
"poppycock,' and Charrington uses
this expression with gustO.
The story Is based on incidents of
Atkinson's famous voyage after the
Russians, and in some respects fol-
lows 1t pretty closely.
Atkinson says he doesn't know the
author, whose name Is Donald Ham
ilton Haines. "The young chap who
was acting as consul was named Ne
ville," said Atkinson yesterday. THE
story is so closely similar In some of
its details to my trip over there and
some of the scenes between Char
rington and Bacon are so nearly like
