I'VE will not wait minute. How
the storm holds or l hope r will
hold OF for another hour"
Mr.. Challoner made no reply. He
had spoken because he felt compelled
to speak. but It had not been easy
for him, nor could any trifies move
him now.
The town was up by this time and.
though they chose the least frequent
ed streets. they had to suffer from
some encounters. 1t was q good half
hour before they found themselves In
the forest and insight Of the hangar.
One look that way. and Sweetwater
turned to see what the effect was upon
Mr.. Challoner.
A murmur Of dlsmay greeted him
The oval Of the great lid stood up
against the forest background.
He has escaped" cried Mr.. Chal
loner
But Sweetwater, laying a finger on
his lip. advanced and laid his ear
against the door, Then he cast q
quick look aloft Nothing was to be
seen there. The darkness OF storm In
the heavens but nothing more.-Yesl
now. fash of vivid and destructive
lightning!
The two men drew back and their
glances crossed.
Let us return to the highroad,"
whispered Sweetwater; I'VE can see
nothing here"
Mr.. Challoner, trembling very much.
wheeled slowly about
Wait" enjoined Sweetwater. First

Running to the nearest tree. he
quickly climbed It. worked himself
along protrudlng branch and looked
down into the open hangar. 1t was
now SO dark that details escaped him.
but one thing was certain. The air
ship was not there !
Descending, he drew Mr.. Challoner
hastily along. Hes gone." said he.
Let US reach the high ground az
quickly as we can. I'm glad that Mr..
Oswald Brotherson Is not with US or
or Miss Doris"
But this expression OF satisfaction
died on his lips. At the point where
the forest road debouches into the
highway, he had already caught
glimpse Of their two agures. They
were waiting for news, and the broth.
er spoke at the instant he saw Sweet
water.
Where Is he? You've not found
him or YOU wouldn't be coming alone.
He cannot have gone up. He cannot
manage 1t without an assistant. We
must seek him somewhere else; In
the forest or In our house at home.
Ah!" The lightning had forked again.
He's not In the forest and he's not
In your home," returned Sweetwater.
He's aloft; the airship is not In the
shed. And he can 90 up alone now"
Then more slowly: But he cannot
come down"
They strained their eyes In a mad
dening search Of the heavens. But
the darkness had 80 increased that
they could be sure OF nothing.
Doris sank upon her knees.
Suddenly the lightning flashed
again, this time SO vividly and SO near
that the whole heaven burst into fiery
illumination above them and the
thunder, crashing almost simultane-
ously. seemed for a moment to rock
the world aud bow the heavens to-
wards them Then silence; then

Mr.. Challoner threw out his arms,
then steadied himself. Oswald was
reeling; Oswald had seen too. But
Doris was there. When the lightning
flashed again. she was standing and
Oswald was weeping on her bosom.

In preparation for the time when he will need mere room for the breeding of foxes of all varieties along with his mercantile establish meut, George Morrison of Hot Springs is now building an eXLen- sive ranch which when completed will probably be the largest of it's kind in Alaska.
 MT. Morrison has been engaged in fox farming for about three years. He started by buying a few pairs Of foxes and breeding them, and, al- though he has 1aSsed Q large num- Der, he buys any and all of the sll- yer greys, blacks or cross varieties that he can obtain. He does not care to buy the red foxes as he is attempting to breed cross foxes u1 to the silver grey variety. The only red foxes he has are several f-males for experimental purposes, -Fairbanks Citizen.
