police he began to make his pressure
felt. He talked little, seldom smoked
or drank, never looked directly at any
one for more than an instant, yet in
fortnight's time he had taken the
criminal inventory of the Zone.
But all of this time jim. was watch
ing and waiting; very little escaped
him, yet he saw no sign of the big
graft" which he had come to the
Isthmus to find. Once or twice he
thought that he had struck a hot
trail, but the hope proved futile.
In the course of time he was sent
out to the Culebra station, and there
he formed the habit of wandering
about the works and talking with the
workmen, and little by little there
began to grow in him strange, new
interest, an odd feeling of proprietor
ship and responsibility in the achieve
ment itself. Heretofore the canal
had been to MIN a helpless, full
blooded monster capable of nourish-
ing thousands of parasites, but as day
after day he watched the workers
and sat in their tents and listened to
their plans and projects, an honest
wonder fell upon him when he real
lied that these men were not there
for graft nor entirely for pay, but to
dig the canal! ' .
The discovery puzzled him; these
were intelligent men, men of sound
wisdom. They were far from fools
in any sense, yet we're they not sac
rifcing pleasure and risking health
for less money than he took each
month from the divekeepers?

L. PRIDE OF GRAFT-A TALE OF PANAMA

Jim Morgan, CRATER, went to the

which had led his early prototype,

was loot which led them both.
Jim was sprung from a line OF
looters. Father and grandfather both
died in Jail. Jim was policeman,
by instinct and actual service. But
at heart Jim was an artist, poet, a
dreamer of dreams, and idealist. .
Jim loved his profession, but even
more he loved the things which
stirred his fantasy; books, music,
flowers, animals and great wastes.
Perhaps it was this love of the primi-
tive as much as the tales of big graft
which led him to the Isthmus.
Still, these tidings had reached
him, and so he took passage for
Panama.
When he had been two days in
Panama, Jim presented himself be-
fore the chief of the l. G. c. police
and asked for billet. The officer
looked curiously at the boyish face
and figure.
What do you want?" he demand

escape from drowning or serious in

crossing the bridge, when he came
to a place where two OF the planks

been missing and have been replaced.
This morning four we're taken out.

Two comets are visible nightly in
the sky in this vicinity, Campbelrs
Wanderer at about 10 p. m. and
Delayan's at about a. m, says The
st. Paul Dispatch.
Campbell's comet can be seen with
the naked eye about twenty degrees
above the horizon, directly south.
The early morning celestial visitor
hardly is worth an early rising to
see, according to university astron,
omers. 1t is located in the northeast
about 80 degrees above the horizon,
but is not prominent enough to be
visible easily to the layman's eye.
A small telescope is necessary TO
make a satisfactory observation.
