He walked home swiftly through

tumultuous thoughts. The revela-
lions of the day we're staggering; the
whole universe seemed to have turned
topsy-turyy since that devastating
hour at Burton's inn. Somehow he
was not able to confine his thoughts
to Hetty Castleton alone. She seemed
to sink into the background, despite
the absolution he had been SO ready,
so eager to grant her on hearing the
story from Sara's lips. Not that his
resolve to search her out and claim
her in spite of everything was likely

SEVERE STORM BENEFITS
More Good Than Harm Is BelieYed
to Have Resulted in
California.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. January 2s.-
Rain clouds were vanishing and high
water subsiding early today throughout
California. and from all parts of the state
came reports that the worst storm of the
season had done more good than harm.
Grain lands. orchards. irrigation reservoirs
and placer mining operators have profit
ed by the downpour and overfiows.
Normal train service was being restored
except on the coast line of the Southern
Pacific. which may not be able to get
through service for week. A number
of towns. including Santa Barbara, prob
ably will remain cut OF from railroad
communication for several days Hun
dreds of passengers. already three days
behind time owing to washouts an land
slides. were still on the road. but relief
was expected today. Southern California
communities have been the principal suf-
ferers from train tie-ups.
The storm spent its fury in southern
California yesterday, and several bridges
and dams were washed away. y land
slide in the Feather River canyon WAS
still holding up Western Pacific trains

were on fire. With escape cut off, and
fearful lest the dynamite which had been
planted would explode. the men combat

fighting apparatus. They succeeded in
extinguishing the fire. but were over
come by the fumes from the flames:
Rescuers who had rushed into the tunnel
found their bodies strewn along for sew

been planted and their fuses attached

SAYS RAD|UM LANDS
ARE BEING TAKEN UP
Official Declares Spectators Are
Taking Advantage of Con-
gressional Delay.
Purpose Of Measure Urged by secre-
tary Lane in Danger of Be-
ing Defeated.

When the proposed bill providing for
the withdrawal of all public lands CON
tanning radium-bearng ores becomes
law. it was declared today it will hardly
be worth the parchment upon which it is
engrossed. so far as its conservation of
radium lands to the public is concerned
Reliable information received in official
sources indicates that practically all of the
lands containing the precious metal have
been settled upon while the bill has been
travelling the various lines of red tape
aiding and abetting the settlement Of
claims by the delay.
The official who discovered the manipu-
lation, for obvious reasons, did not care
to have his name used, but he has kept
in close touch with the radium situation
since it was first broached by Secretary
Lane more than a month ago. Although
the subject was first presented to the
public December % last. when Secretary
Lane sent a letter to Representative
Foster, proposing the passage of a bill
providing for the withdrawal from entry of
all public lands containing radium-bcar-
ing ores. the committees are still talking
about the bill, causing delay. which is
helping those interested in sobblins up
the lands, it is charged.
