For months Daylight was buried IN

there was nothing coming In. Beyond
a general rise in land values, Oakland

he was determined to start right as
when he engaged Wilkinson, almost

him out from Chicago to take charge
of the street railway organization.
Night and day the road gangs toiled
on the streets. And night and day
nile-drivers hammered the big piles
down into the mud of San Francisco
Bay. The pier was to be three miles
long and the Berkeley hills were de-
nuded of whole groves of mature
eucalyptus for the piling.
At the same time that his electric

The tide-lands had been in litigation
for years, and he took the bull by the
horns-buying out the private owners
and at the same time leasing from the
city fathers. BY the time that Oak
land was aroused by this unprecedent-
ed activity in every direction and was
questioning excitedly the meaning OF
1t. Daylight secretly bought the chief
Republican newspaper and the chief
Democratic organ. and moved boldly
into his new Offices. OF necessity, they
were on a large scale. occupying four
floors of the only modern Office build
ing in the town-the only building
that wouldn't be torn down later on.

ing novel had been a failure. Editors
and publishers would not look at 1t,
and Daylight was now using the dis
gruntled author in little private
secret service system he had been
compelled to establish for himself.
Jones, who affected to be surprised at
nothing after his crushing experience,
betrayed no surprise now when the
task was given him to locate the pur
chaser of a certain sorrel mare.
How high shall l pay for herr" he
asked.
ANY price. You've got to get her,
that's the point Drive a sharp bar

get her. Then you deliver her to that
address up In Sonoma County. The
mans the caretaker on little ranch
have there. Tell him he's to take
whacking good care of her. And after
that forget all about 1t. Don't tell me
the name of the man you buy her
from. Don't tell me anything about
1t except that you've got her and de
livered her. SAWYER"
But the week had not passed. when
Daylight noted the fash in Dede's
eyes that BODIED trouble.
Something's gone wrong-what is
it?" he said boldly.

bought her has sold her already. II

it"
81 don't even know who you sold

what's more, I'm not bothering my
head about her. She was your mare
and it's none of my business what you
did with her. You haven't got her
that's sure. and worse luck. AND

HAS DECREE MODIFIED.
Result of Mrs. Elizabeth Pralls
Argument in Appellate Court.

Mrs. Elizabeth c. Prall, the widow Of
William E. PralL jr., who recently
argued in person before the Court of APP
peals an application for a reversal of a
decree Of Justice Wright awarding her a
fourth interest in the property known as
Hotel Gordon, near 18th and / streets
has succeeded in securing a modification
OF the decree. The District Court of APP
peals In an opinion by Justice Robb,
while refusing the request of Mrs Prall
that she be declared the sole owner OF
the property on the death of her hus-
bands sisters. holds that the son Of Mrs
Prall, through whom she makes claim,
took title to one-fourth of the remain
der of the estate. The court also holds
that Miss Gladys Knorr, daughter OF
one of the sisters OF William T.. Prall jr
is also entitled to fourth interest Unless
other children are born to the three liv-
ing life tenants, the court decides, these
two children or their heirs will be emit
tied to the other half of the estate.
The appellate court suggests that the
decree OF the lower court, as made, might
permit those opposing Mrs. Pralrs con-
tention to claim that 1t precisely defines
her interest and that as to her it is in
the nature Of a final decree. As the
her holding, the court proceeds to modify
the decree stated. and in all other mat
tiers affirms the decree of the lower
court.
Mrs. Prall had several attorneys in sue
cession while fighting in the lower court
She finally abandoned the aid of counsel
and argued her own cause, both be-
fore Justice Wright and In the appellate
tribunal.
