FALLS DEVELOPED.
Paper Mill and Allied Industries to Be
Built.

Libby.-The development of Koot-
enai falls by the Kootenai Power Con-
struction company means the employ
ment of approximately 1000 workmen
in Libby permanently, the construc-
ton of a large papyf mill, woodwork
ing plants and tie establishment of
other industries, according to Joseph
A. Coram, the Boston capitalist who
has just been here in connection with
the project.
While it has been known some time
that eastern men had obtained full in
formation regarding timber from the
forestry service, with the idea of
building a paper mill, it was not
known Mr.. Corams company was also
behind this enterprise until he gave
out information here. 1t is proposed
to construct paper mill with a daily
capacity of about 1865 tons at Libby.
Timber upon which to operate will be
purchased from the government, ar
rangements for the purchase now be-
ing under way.
If the company starts this fall it is
estimated the project can be complet-
ed by year from next spring.

Land for Shops.
Lewistown.-The Milwaukee railway
company has purchased a fifty-acre
tract of land here for shop, terminal
and track purposes. The price paid
was $500 an acre, or $4,000 in all.
The tract is an ideal one for the pur-
poses to which it will be put, being
OF easy access from points at which
the tracks would naturally enter it.
The company will change the course
of the creek and by the end of next
year beginning will have been made
in the development of the shop and
terminal plans. Within two years it
is expected the company will have
payroll of $4,000 a month here and
this will steadily increase with the
completion of the cutoff through from
Great Falls to Missoula, making
short line from the Musselshell on to
the coast, so that the principal trains
will all come through this city.
1t is the intention of the Milwaukee
to make Lewistown an important 'di-
visional point with the competition of
its Great Falls-M usselshell inc.
The roundhouses and the first units
for the shops will be completed by
the end of next year, and the further
development will be speedy and on a
scale in keeping with the company's
extension and increase in traffic.

FROM THE Big SEA
Nora and Kitty Had Plenty to
Talk About.
By CLARISSA MACKIE.

Jack Northrup turned the wheel
and brought the nose of his swift
little motor boat around toward the
narrow opening of the bay. Once
outside, the little craft rode the big
waves easily.
"This is great!" calculated Jack, in
haling deep breath of the fresh salt
breeze.
A crowded excursion steamer
passed him and in response to his
shrill siren call saluted with a
throaty bass growl. Everybody
laughed.
Jack turned and looked after the
steamer. II wonder if Nora is on
board-she did say that she might
come down on the excursion boat;
we'll, I may as we'll finish my run and
it is very likely that she and Kitty
will have plenty to talk about-they
won't miss me-"
Across the heaving wake left by the
steamer darted the motor boat. The
opposite shore grew more distinct for

D. bit broken from the mainland
Here Jack loved to come and swim
in the sheltered cove on the south
side of the island and it was usually
his goal on short motor trips.
This afternoon the island lay a
golden spot under the leveling rays of
the dropping sun. A few pine trees
huddled near the shore, while the
rocky center arose to rugged height
of perhaps fifty feet. Once Jack had
climbed to the very top of the rock
to find that it was a cup-like hollow
filled with pine needles waited from
the trees below.
"Some night I shall stay up there
and watch the stars swing through
their courses" he promised himself
as he steered toward the entrance to
the little cove.
Once inside it was only a hundred
feet to the curving yellow beach
where the Gull nosed up the sand
while Jack tossed an anchor over
board as an extra precaution.
IF Nora had not said she might
come down today I'd stay here to

night" he said with a wistful glance
up the steep, rocky path that led to
the summit.
His eyes fell to the sand, and there
he saw impressed the print of a small
foot-a little, bare foot. Next he saw
a small boat lying keel up against the
rocky wall. This was drift from the
ocean.
He walked up to it and made a
brief examination. The craft was the
very last thing in luxurious ship
building-a small, dainty yachts ten
der, a masterpiece of inlaid wood and
polished brass. Her engine was USE
less and she had no oars. On her bow
she bore a name in small brass let
tiers.
"Blaucine."
Drift from the ocean," he repeated,
when all at once he remembered the
tiny footprint in the sand and he WON

bare beach, that was washed at both
ends by the hungry tide and at the
only safe spot on the island-the

In few seconds he was scaling the
steep path and when he reached the
top so that his eyes could lool. down
into the cup-like hollow of tho pin
nacle rock, he almost lost his hold
on the brim, so great was his amaze
ment at what he saw.
Curled up on the thick bed of pine
needles was a girl fast asleep, the
prettiest Jack had ever seen, not even
excepting Nora Smith, with whom he
was supposed to be in love. He iden-
titled her at once as the maker Of the
footprint on the sand, for not only
were there dainty pair of shoes and
stockings primly placed beside her,
but from beneath the skirt of her blue
serge sailor frock peeped a bare and
rosy foot.
Jack gazed in awed delight and
wonderment at the long, curved lashes
against her pink cheek; he wondered
what color We're the eyes hidden be-
meath the white lids.

she opened her eyes and saw him.
Her eyes were hazel. Her face lost
