From time to time Judge E. Coke Hill, commissioner at Ruby, keeps his friends informed of the progress of the camp on the Yukon. In a recent let ter to Russ Downing, of Nome, the popular jurist declares
 Ruby will certainly make

 That settles the future of Ruby so far as Judge Hill is concerned. Pay streaks may come and go; towns may rise and fall, and the Yukon may re- fuse to perform its interesting annual stunt Of ''gong out," but so long as our old friend can "Gee"' and "HawH' and organize dog races.

 You're the only father I want, dad. But"

 Let it go at that, dad" laughed Tom.
 "Oh. all right. I will, if you like. And you'll stay to dinner?"
 Why, of eourse." quickly aesented Tom.
 That's better" approved Blake ''Now, run in and start with Mark. I'll be with you in a minute or two. And-say-if Mark and I should get to talking politics at dinner"
 Don't worry" returned Tom, smii- ing. I'm getting quite used to my muzzle. But Mark won't be as likely to be wrapped up in politics as he us- ually is. Grace is coming down."
 I ID Il. qa .-lk with pleasure. Good for her! When?"
 At eight o'clock. But she didn't bother to mention whether it was eight this evening or eight to- morrow morning. Mark was just go- ing to call her up on long distance to find out, when we happened to meet Standish. And I suppose the prospect of clash with Standish quite drove a minor matter like his wife out of his thoughts"
 You're wrong there" dissented Blake. There's nothing on earth can drive Grace out of Mark Robert sons head. He's as crazy in love with her as he was the day he married her If he didn't telephone her before he went in to dinner it's a chinch he'll do it the minute he comes out. Queer old Mark Grace is the one thing that makes him human. Chase on in, and order for me"
 Dismissing his son with a slap on the shoulder, Blake strode across to the telephone alcove. Wanda Kelly look ed up inquiringly from the novel she was reading between telephone calls.
 Miss Kelly" said Jim, will you kindly connect me with the hotel of fice?"
 He sprawled into a vacant seat at her side, caught up the extra receiver and called:
 That the office? Perry? Hello, Perry. This is Blake. Jim Blake. Yes. In two minutes I want you to send word to Mir. Standish that he's wanted on the phone here. Yes. Here. Not in his roora Here at the phone booths. Fix it any way you like. Only get him here inside of five minutes. No, no! Do as I say, tell you. Good by"
 He hung up the receiver, rose and stood lounging against the rail. look ing down at Wanda from between his half-closed lids.

 His voice traised ofT into self-satis- fled laugh. Nor was the laugh wholly assumed. For he saw Standishs s hands slowly clench again. And few beads of sweat were beginning to show themselves upon the insurgents forehead

 ''Well?" he demanded. If whole hundred dollars has shrunk so quick ly into a little hundred dollars what price strikes you as fair?"
