CHAPTER XII.
The Aurora.

Il tell you sir. the thing is beyond
human possibility. There is no help
no human help in the world. I
would swear to that before God. But
I think you must know It as well as
do" Captain Warner, standing upon
h Aurora's bridge. was the speaker.
The two Fanshaws, father and son,
their faces gray with despair, turned
away and looked over the great mass
es of loose, churning ~fleld-ice, which,
filling the sea out to the utmost hort
zon. confirmed the captains words.
How long" Tom Fanshaw began,
then he paused. moistened his lips and
rubbed them roughly with his hand
"How long" he repeated, shall we
have to wait before it opens up?"
ut won't open up again this sea-
son-not II l know anything about the
arctic" salt the captain.
1T will freeze, though" Mr.. Fan.
shaw said, freeze into a solid pack
that we could cross afoot. How long
shall we have to wait fer that"
TITS hard to tell. Generally in this
latitude the pack is pretty solid bv
the first Of September. But tina
warm current which caught Fielding
ship. which caught the Walrus-the
current which makes. every su,'mo-
apparently. that long gan Of orer
or which erahlo'
land that Fielding reached-that cur-
rent would keep loose feld-ice floating
about for at least another month"
Tom Fanshaw's eyes had almost the
light of madness in them. But she
can't live a MONTH" he cried. She's
alone. unarmed! She has no food; no
shelter but those BARI huts!"
THE Walrus people doubtless left
some stores there. II she could find
them" said Captain Warner. But,
STILL. what you say is perfectly true.
She a hardly hope to keep a live a
week"
Then" said Tom, in dull, passion
ate rebellion-"then, in some way or
other. we must go back to her. II you
won't go-if you won't take the Au-
rora back, I'll take n of the little
boats and go myself"
"If you want to commit suicide"
said Captain Warner. you could do it
less painfully with a revolver. The
small boa would not live 80 seconds
after we put her over the side. You
know that, If you are not mad. AS

of the crew had borne themselves.
But his mind was filled with a new
terror, and as soon as he could feel
that his son was in condition to be
left alone. he left him, with a broken
word of Gus He must either set
this mes terror at rest, or know the
worst at once. There had been no
one, either among the survivors or the
slain OF the Walrus party. who in n
way resembled the monster Tom had
described.
An hou later he went back to the
bridge to talk again with Captain
Warner. He thought that they had
sounded the depth Of despair that
former time when they had talked to-
gether there, but In this last hour he
had sounded a new abyss beneath IL
all. He knew now why the yacht had
been so easily taken. He knew all the
details of the 6evilish plan which had
SO nearly succeeded. More han that.
he knew the story of the man Roscoe
from the time Tshen Captain Planck
had taken him aboard the Walrus.
down to the hour last night when he
had sprung into his boa again and
pulled shoreward. Captain Planck
was dying, and old Mr.. Fanshaw's
questions had enabled him to enjoy
the luxury of a full confession.
So they knew now. those two men
h stood there on the bridge, white
Tipped. talking over the horror of the
thing-they knew that Jeanne was not
alone pon that terrible frozen shore.
The man Roscoe was there, too.
A sound on the deck below attracted
Mr.. Fanshaw's attention. Tom, with
the aid of a heavy cane, was limping
p~recariously along the deck toward
the bridge ladder, and, 10 their amaze
ment, when he looked up at them.
they saw that somehow, his face had
cleared. There was a grave look of
peace upon 1t.
"Tve thought of something he
said, after he had climbed up beside
them-"Tve thought of something that
makes 1T seem possible to go on lv-
ing, and even hoping"
The two older men exchanged a
swift glance. He was not to know
about Roscoe. If he had found some
thing to hope for, no matter how IL
lusory. he should be allowed to Keep
ito hug 1t to his breast, in place of
the horrible. ~torturing vision OF the
human monster which the other two
men saw.
What is It you've thought OF.
Tom?" his father asked unsteadily.
'It's-it's Cayley. He's there with
her: I'm sure he is" He turned
away a little from Captain Warner
and spoke directly to his father. II

her alive until we can get back with

He said no more. and he clutched
the rail tight in his gauntleted hands
and gazed out north, across the ice.

SONORA MINES ARE

Notwithstanding the cold weathel and the little furry -over the rebel lion in Mexico, mining act vity ir Sonora is more decided than it has been for many months past At the Cinco de Mayo operations are result ing in regular shipments. From two to five tons of high grade ore are extracted daily. which Is said to average from 250 to 400 ounces of silver per ton. This h gh grade orc is hand sorted. and the lower grade ore is sent to the 20-ton concentrating plant 1t is estimated that the gross production of the mine is running about S20,oO0 Unit. ed States currency per month A recent payment was made on the property. making the third since the nine was taken over by II.

DEADLOCK IN PROSPECT

PROVIDENCE, R. L, Jan 4:-With two republicans and a democratic candidate in the field for United st les senator to succeed Nels- n w. Aldrich, present indications point to another deadlock in the Rhode Is- land legislature now in session. un- less there is a marked change in the attitude Of the republican mapOr- ity. The republican candidkes arN Henry F. Lippitt. one of the leading wooIen manufacturers Of the country. and Judge Le Baron B. Cot Of the United States circuit Court, a brother of Col. Samlel ?. Cot, president of the United States Rubber company The democratic candidate is John Arthur l.. Brown of the United States District Court, who has received the indorsemeII of the democratic state convention as well as te dem ccratic members of the legislature.
 To all appearances te strength of Gppitt and Colt. the republican aspirants. is about equally divided. Lippitt Is regarded as the machine candidate. while Colt has the indorse nent of the progressive or insurgent wing of the republican party. LipEi-t is the choice of Senator Aldrich and also has te backing of a maj 1rity of the members of te state committee. Whether this will help or hinder his candidacy is disputed quetion. Judge Colt appears to have increased his strength within the past few weeks and apparently has sufficient strength to indicate the deadlock should all the democrsss stand for Judge Brown on every ballot

To revive operations on gold plae- CTS in California long ago abandon ed is the cause for the visit ot --Toppy" Johnson, a pioneer of the Golden Gate state. to Douglas. This is to be brought about by the em- ployment of the Quinner Dry Pull yerlzing and Disintegrating machine. which has demonstrated it's yalne in the treatment of the argamasa. or cement conglomerate in the Altar gold placer fields on the west coast of Sonora, Mexico.
 There are in California many gold pIacers which were formerly work ed over on the surface by hydralic methods, where operations ceased when the surface had been worked down to the hard congiomerate which could not be handled by the giants. Johnson is a pioneer in the California placer fields, and his fife work has also made h'm fam liar figure in Arizona and northern Mexico for the past thirty years. He came to Douglas this week, for the purpose of making preparations to begin active placer IEining in Cali fornia at once
 Last fall, when the Announcement of Altar placer ground was at its heizht, Johnson made a visit to the placer fields west of Baludo and Al tar. and saw the Guinner machine eating up the cement conglomerate. He knew that in Cal fornia there were many E1acer beds on which only the loose gravel and sand have been washed" Taking note of the success of the dry machine, he went to California. and took up on lease

How to Know What Width to Ask the
SaIeswoman For.
Very few women have escaped
the annoyance OF trying unsuccess-
fully to buy ribbon of a particular
width. When one considers the ques-
ton it is quite natural that manufac-
turers should turn it out in certain
staple widths. but the difficulty IS that
very few of US know just what these
widths are When ribbons are used
as much as this summer our troubles
are multiplied.
Here are the numbers and their cor

and taverns seem a less unpromising
investment than was the case five or
six years ago.
Hotel men are beginning to recog-
nize that the automobile has wrought
a complete change in conditions. Ten
years ago, according to one authority
good meals were out of the question:
except in large cities or at fashionable
summer resorts. Today almost every
country hotel boasts of good cook.

ed, for not only does the city man in.
dulge in the luxury of touring, but
the farmer also has gotten into the
spirit of the thing. The time was
when the tiller of the soil would hitch
old Dobbin to the rig of Sunday aft
ernoon and venture over the roads ten
miles or more to neighboring town.
Such an excursion, however, was
looked upon as an advent in the lives
of those on the farm, while today
thousands of farmers, accompanied by
their families, think nothing of Whirl-
ing over the hills and through the
woods in a omtor car that will take
them miles from and back again in
time for supper. Thus, with the aid
of the automobile the farmer fast is
bringing himself into closer contact
with the "outside world" His wife
is enabled to enter more fully into
the social activities of surrounding
towns, his children are carried to and
from school and attendance at Sunday
church services is assured by the au-
tomobile which takes that burden off
from the shoulders of the tired farm
horse.
Figures compiled recently by a re-
liable authority states that $25,00O,-
900 has been appropriated this year
by American farmers for automobiles.
1t would seem. therefore, that the
motor car is fast becoming perma-
nent fixture in rural life.
