deliberately had taken the money

see, it was this way: Ne got him
out on bail on condition he'd pear to-
morrow morning fore the magistrate.
After we'd got him out he insisted on
coming round here SOS he could run
away with you. That wassen a gen
nelmanly thing to do after we'd put up
our money. We coul'n' afford have him
runnin' away with you. So We had
him locked in room on top floor Of

She looked at them with burning
eyes. Slow rage was coming to the
flaming point And for this she had
sat and suffered for hours in a street
restaurant: For this! Her eyes fell
upon the limp horses and the detected
stable boy. Two hours.

stormed. DO you hear? 1t is outra-

Without another word to the daZed

manded the boy to assist her into the

ment. Then she instructed him to
mount and follow her to the Tirol as
fast as he could ride. The horses were

distrustful bondsmen had promised
faithfully to seek out the devoted Con

had no thought. of course. that III the
meantime she might be duped into pay

Not only was he direfully cursing the
trio. but also the Anticipated Medcroft
and his own Anticipated self. 1t is to
be feared that he had harsh thoughts
of all the MedcrOfts, as far down as
Raggles. His dream Of love and hap
piness had turned into a nightmare:
the comedy had become tragic snarl
Of all the effects known to melodrama.
1t occurred to him al 2 O'Clock that

He would 60 to bed. Morning would
bring relief and surcease to his trou

sound asleep in her room. Everything
would have been explained to her long
before this hour. She would under

sophistry he undressed and crawled
into the strange bed Somehow he
did not Ike it as we'll as the cot in

Just as he was dropping of into the

The rapping was repeated. He called

USE OF OIL AS FUEL

The decision to use the space be- tween the inner and outer shells of the Olympic for the storage of oil, to be experimentally used as fuel for one of the mighty boilers, is an interesting development in the use of oil as fuel which is so familiar a practice on cer- tain western railwys. Nor is the use of oil for vessels any longer a novelty. One steamship company, with head quarters in the Far East, has twenty one oil burning ships in its service;
 two transatlantic lines have vessels equipped with apparatus enabling them to utilize oil. Indeed, the liquid fuel is far more generally used at sea than on land. A great advantage is
 that, instead of the difficult trans
 mission of coal bags from a collier, oil
 can be pumped through flexible tubes
 into the hold of a ship to be supplied
 in rough weather. In such a ship as
 the Olympic there is an enormous saV-
 ing of cargo room through the possi-
 bility of Oi! storage in space not other wise utilized The German fleet on the China station regularly uses oil; so do ships of the Dutch navy and the ltal- ian admiralty In the Far East, since Sir Marcus Samuel developed the Bor- neo oil fields, there are rich supplies for the constantly increasing use o liquid fuel throughout the surround | ing region, supplemented by the prod uct of the valuable oil wells in Bur nah As far as the use of liquid tue ashore is concerned in our country | Texas, which uses oil almost to th' exclusion of coal in it's factories ant | locomotives, is pointing the way tt other commonwealths, such as New | York and California which are emu Iating the example of the Lone Sta1 l state.

 there were but scant number of

 by Mr. Frazer who made d brief
 statement of the work being done by
 the Arizona Good Roads association.
 He said the association was not formed in the interests of any one road or any particular section. It was
 to promote good roads thrOughOut the state and enable the people to profit by the wonderful amount of tourist travel that would be to attracted Such attractions as the Grand Canon. the Roosevelt Dam. the scenery at Fish (, eek canon. the Petrified forest, the painted desert and many other marvels of scenic beauty and grandeur, would bring millions of dollars into Arizona an nuaHy, once let it be known that these places could be reached by | roads over which the visito-s could travel with comfort.

RESULTS OF CITY MAIL
 DELIVERY ARE GOOD
Houses Numbered, Street Signs Placed; 88O Residents Served by ..
 New Route in Tempe

Twelve hundred business houses and residences of Tempe are. now numbered, 13S street signs will be placed in position the early part of this week. and mail delivery service has been extended to SSS patrons, is
 the result of the installation of a free city mail delivery service in Tempe on the first day of January. 1913.
 Under the supervision of the com mittee from the city council house numbering has been in progress for
 the past three days and was brought to a conclusive end last evening. Now
 that every person in Tempe knows
 what the number of their property
 is to be the council expects them to
 provide for a permanent number
 placed in some conspicuous place.
 Brass numbers of a sufficient size
 may be secured at various business
 houses in Tempe which it is hoped will be substituted as soon as pos
 sible for the chalk mark which now adorns the front door of each house. Work on the 13S street signs which are to be placed at mores of the inn portant street corners of the town has been under way for two weeks. To- morrow morning, again under the supervision of the council. work will
 be staI ted on placing them at their respective locations.
 Postmaster J. c. Mullen states that to date there are $50 residents of Tempe being served by the city car ! rier Since the route was started the | first of the year the number of pat rOns has constantly increased from l 400 to the present number and the service has been in existence but | nineteen days.
 l Postmaster Mullen at the end of | this week will make a. thorough report
 on the accomplishments of the service since it was installed in Tempe. It is therefore. his desire that the pat
 rOns of the route see fit to place their numbers in position before that time, 1 in order that this feature may be m 1 cluded in the report. Chalk marks do not go with the government, conse- | quently only properly numbered | places will he recognized. The Dum- ! Der of patrons and street signs will
 also be included. but with those two i features only the council and the post master himself have to bother.
