A GREAT BIG THRILLING STORY
BY ISABEL OSTRANDER

The library curtains moved a trifie at
and two keen, buriy faces appeared,
each over the grim. shining DISK Of a
revolver barrel.
After a low-toned colloquy with Will
Jams in the hall the curtains of the
hall door parted, and a tail, dark man
entered nonchalantly.
He stepped three PAGES into the room,
a faint. slightly cynical smile upon his
lips. Then his eyes swept the scene
before hin-the three men pale and
tense in their chairs. Yorke standing by
the table, his hand upon a thing OF
metal, hard and shining-even the great
dog, who, who with fiat ears. curled
lip, and every hair bristling, was
crouched for a spring
He took In the significance Of the
scene at glance, and over his calm
1rontc face swept storm of malevo-
lent fury which seemed to change II
into mere distorted mask of hatred
and rage-and terror.
He turned, swiftly-to find Williams
facing him from the doorway with lev
eled revolver.
To the library, the two strange men
stepped quietly forth from behind the
curtains
With snarl OF fear and wrath, he
turned again, swiftly-and at that mo-
ment the dog leaped. There was a
sudden jerk which almost pulled Robin
Van Rensselaer, from his chair, the
snap of broken leashs and a buff-and-
white streak hurled Itself, through
space. sf.-'.
But even as Velsk leaped. the sharr
report Of a shot detonated through the
room, and the man spun around and
fell prone upon his back, with arms
outfiung and upturned face. even as his
, victim had lain, not two, weeks before
There was wound In his temple
from which sluggish stain ooxed, and
the thin, tenuous fingers OF his left
hand clutched his own smoking re-
volver.
It had all happened so quickly tina,
no one save Yorke had had more thar
| glimpse of the stranger, but as the
two plain-clothesl men rushed forward
and dragged the dog from the prostrat.

LOUISIANA PUBLICITY COMMITS
SION.

In this, our first bulletin, submitted
to the press of the state, We desire to
lset forth the aims of this commission
in condensed form.
| First and foremost, we hope to give
practical publicity to our state by a
campaign in the interest of the pro-
ducers and shippers of Louisiana pro-
ducts. First distributing our products
so far as practical within our state,
and profitably marketing the surplus
outside the state. bring outside money
/ to Louisiana; to establish bureau in
the North to facilitate the sale of per-
ishable crops.
We wish to assist in home exploita-
| ton, gathering and publishing reliable
information about our products. Our
ultimate aim being to demonstrate to
the people and our legislature that this
work must be taken up and further
developed by the state.
At present, the Corn Crop" is at
tracing our interest. We find that the
cane territory, as indicated by answers
so far secured to four hundred inquir-
les, will yield large surplus and con-
ference with Mason Snowden, state
agent of the federal cooperative and
demonstration work, indicates that a
large portion of this surplus should be
distributed within the state.
Facilities for Smelling are inadequate
in many territories, and We would be
glad to put those of the state, who may
need to purchase feed, in touch with
those offering corn for sale. This done,
together with the cash derived from
export sales, will demonstrate that
Louisiana is the place for the corn
farmer to look for corn land.
Short forage crops in the North and
West will induce early feeding of stock
and the present apparent shortage will,
in all probability, be more manifest as
the winter advances.

GRETNA TO TAKE WATER From
AlGIERS.

The city of Gretna is to have the
same water that New Orleans enjoys,
and the rate will be a fiat one. being IN
all probability Is cents per 1000 gal.
Ions, practically the same as charged
to local consumers.
At the conference at which Governor
Hall, Dr. Charles F. Gelbke and Joseph
Noegtle were present, the latter, who
j. president of the Sewerage and Water
Board, said the above rate could be
fixed, and there would be no difficulty
in giving the water supply as there IS
more than ample in Algiers to supply
the adjoining city.
1t was positively announced Tuesday
night that the suggestion made by Mr..
| NOegtle will be reduced to writing in
an official manner and brought before
the city council at very early session,
because it is realized that this is an
important civic movement and one
that is needed as especially in the
flrst ward, WnlCn is now practically at
the mercy of any fire that might start.
Several times the piping of water 10
the adjoining towns to Algiers has
been spoken of, but the expense and
the difficulty of raising the money
blocked progress. but it is declared
that with city and it's advantages to
incur debt and arrange payment in
satisfactory way, there will be no diff
Guilty in putting into effect the needed
improvement.
While nothing will be done imme-
diately all the details will be gotten
ready so that no delay will be ex-
perienced when the ordinance is pre-
sented to the city council, which will
positively be done at the earliest pos.
sible time.

WILL LAUNCH FIGHT FOR NAVAL
STATION.

Representatives Dupre and Estopi-
nal, backed by the New Orleans Board
of Trade, are preparing to launch a
campaign in congress for opening and
improvement of the New Orleans navy
yard.
A concerted and persistent effort will
be made by Messrs. Dupre and Estopi-
nal between now and the December
session with members of congress, par
ticularly members of the senate and
house naval affairs committee, to get a
large appropriation for the yard. It
is believed that with Rear Admiral Ed
wards backing, the admiral having re-
ported that the yard ought to be made
a great naval station, and the solid
support Of New Orleans business in
terests, Messrs. Dupre and Estopinal
will be successful in their plan. The
whole Louisiana congressional delega-
ton will assist the movement.
