Cayley's action In STOPPING to pick u

OF pleasure that had o spice OF terror

his fancied cleverness and daring In

his return to It, was really doing pre-
cisely the thing that Roscoe would
have him do? Were those sky
witches laughing over what was hap

he sat here and waited?

existence of the pilot-house upon the
cliff head. Also. he had followed COR
rectiy the track Of Roscoe's mind In
the deduction that the two latest
castaways upon this land must have
persisted in the great storm which be.
gan on the night when he fired the
hut.
During tho storm he had lived In
the cave. But when the storm abated
and milder weather came he bestirretl
himself and act about digging a tun-
mel through the great drift which had
blocked the entrance to his cave.
The next time the moon came up.
after he had completed the tunnel
from the cave, he set out down the
beach toward the ruins of the hut.
It was not mere curiosity which at
tracted him. nor any lurking fear, but
simply the hope Of making some sal
wage from the wrsckage of the hut.
His pleasure over the quantity and
condition Of the stores he found In
the Ice cave compensated for his dis
appointment over not finding the
bodies Of his two latest victims.
Very msthodically he set to work
carrying them off to his own cave
working without fatigue and without
ermission-workinG 30 long az the
moonlight lasted.
He was Just setting out with his last
load when, glancing skyward to See

caught . glimpse OF Caylcy on the

Jeanne by no ray Of hope whatever.
She kept Philip and herself alive
from day to day. and this occupation
left her hardly time enough to think
whether there was anything to hope
for or not.
Philip had tainted within a moment

Jeanne mounted thither and dis

accumulated during the winter she
contrived a sort OF shelter In the

W. r. Bowen, Chairman
Of Cotton Loan Committee

Credentials reached the city
Tuesday for the appointment of
Mr.. w. R. Bowen, chairman and
Messrs. E. K. Farmer and A. 3.
Cook members Of the Cotton Loan
Fund for Ben Hill county. $780,
600, 900 is the proportion of the
fund to be invested in cotton in
Georgia and Ben Hill county
should share in the fund to the
extent of six thousand bales.
$780, 900 in cash turned into the
channels of trade in the next
sixty or ninety days in the coun-
ty would make us forget that
there is a war across the waters
and the removal of six million
bales of cotton from the immed-
late market will so improve the
cotton situation that the holders
of spot cotton would reap a har-
vest. With this cotton off the
market and the prospect of a
largely reduced acreage for next
year, the South will work out her
own salvation. Mr.. Bowen or
either of the members Of the
committee will gladly advise with
you in regard to this cotton fund.
Mr.. Robert F. Maddox, State
Chairman of the Loan Fund,
states:
The fund was to have been
ready for loans this week, but
the delay is caused by the fact
that all the forms of notes, cot
ton warehouse receipts and the
like have not been received.
AS previously stated, the Geor-
gia fund will amount to about
$20,OO0,0O0. 1t will be distribut-
ed through 100 subcommittee
representing various sections of
the state, and will be loaned to
farmers through the banks.
