As a rule, when Winnie Keep was
dressing for dinner Fred, in the room
adjoining, could hear her uncon-
sciously and lightheartedly singing to
herself 1t was a habit of hers that he
loved. But on this night, although her
room was directly above where he sat
upon the terrace, he heard no singing.
He had been on the terrace for a
quarter of an hour. Gridley, the aged
butler who was rented with the house
and who for twenty years had been an
inmate OF 1t, had brought the cocktail
and taken away the empty glass. And
Keep had been alone with his thoughts

How could he obtain clothes? He
might hold up a passerby and If the
passerby did not flee from him or punch
him into insenslbility he might effect an
exchange Of garments he might by
threats obtain them from some farmer;
he might despoil "a scarecrow.
But with none Of these plans was
Fred entirely satisfied. The question
deeply perplexed him. How best could
a naked man clothe himself? And as
he sat bordering that point from the
bushes a naked man emerged.
He was not entirely undraped. For
around his nakedness he had drawn a
canvas awning. Fred recognized 1t as

He was created Baron Kitchener OF
Khartoum, received the Grand Cross of
the Order of the Bath, the thanks of
Parliament and was voted $15O,OOO;
also, without irony, it may be recalled
the kaiser telegraphed his sincere con-
gratulations. Two weeks after ON
durman, Kitchener's forces met March :
and at Fashoda with eight French Off
GERS and 120 Soudanese tirailleurs, and
their withdrawal left the whole Of the
Soudan in the power of England. But
having conquered, Kitchener at once
began to build up the country, and all
his wonderful powers Of organization
were devoted to creating a new civili-
zation. AS Kipling put it:
They terribly carpet the earth with
dead and before their cannon cool
They walk unarmed by twos and threes
to call the living TO school.

BIG DAWSON DREDGE
 SINKS IN DEEP WATER

DAWSON, Oct. 1O-Boyle's fine large dredge No. ? sank in twenty to thirty five feet of water in the Klondke river, oppo- site Bear creek bluff, at 3 30 this morning,
 General Manager J. ". Boyle and large crew of men are at work trying to save the dredge MT Boyle announces that the Klondike river will be turned at point near the mouth of Bear creek and the drcdge nshted and gotten into shape as soon as possible, He hopes to have her in operation again this year.
 The cause of the dredge sinking IS mys- tery She was working in the river in the usual way when the crew noticed that she was going down exceptionally far by the head, and in fifteen minutes she had filed so rapidly that her hull was under water, She may have struck a snag or rock. Only fifteen minutes before, said MT. Boyle, the interior of the hull had been inspected and found to be in good order The boat now lies with list to starboard. The crew on board at the time the boat sank con- prised Frank Mckinley, watchman; Wick man, oiler, and MacRay and Savin, deck CTS MT. Boyle says that this is one of the best crews in the service and he is mystl- fled as to the cause of the accident. The boys on the boat were in no immediate danger.
 Dredge No is the pioneer big boat of the Canadian klondike fleet, with a daily capacity of 15,0O0 cubic yards. She and her sister boats of the same company here are the largest gold dredgers in hte world No. ? cost a cool S425, GOO ready to operate
