During the month of March, we treated about 42,OOO tons and we dem. onstrated that our mining cost win be considerably below original estimates. In fact our mining cost for that month was only 14 cents per ton.
 "We have produced far enough to make it clear that we shall be able to mine and min our ore at cost 20 per cent lower than we had origin. ally figured.

At Ray Consolidated last year. just before curtailing operations we re- duced our cost to below Sis cents per pound and am willing to make the prediction that this year our cost will be lower than ever before. We are treating $500 tons of ore per day, and our mining Construction expense i is decreasing very rapidly
 Last year our output of copper was 5S.oOO.OOO pounds against 5S.O0o,0o0 pounds the year before Barring the unforeseen we should this year pro- duce 20 per cent. more than last at a cost Of not over cents. In every re- spect 1916 should be the banner year in the history of the Ray property There is not single out in the whole proposition and we have import ant economocies under way which will materially increase our production from the same tonnage of ore.
 Chino
 sTbere is little new that can be said concerning Chino other than that we oxpcc' Co show a 20 per cent. increase in our output this year over last at the same or a lower cost There are no unsolved problems confronting us.

SYNOPSIS.

After the finding of WI Fang's body and
Kennedy's disappearance, a submarine ap-
pears the following morning on the bay:
A man plunges overheard from 1t and
swims ashore. 1t Is the entrance Of Mar
cius Del Mar into America. His mission
is to obtain information of Kennedy and
recover, If possible, the lost torpedo. At
the Dodge home he soon wins the conf
dence Of Elaine. Later she Is warned by
a little old man to be careful or Del Mar.
This warning came just In time to pre-
vent Del Mar from carrying out his plans.
Elaine gives masquerade ball. Del Mar
attends. Neither he nor his domino girl
can locate the torpedo. 4 gray friar warns
Elaine and Jameson of Del Mars purpose,
and his plans are upset. The girl enters
the Dodge home as maid finds the tor
pedo, places it in a trunk, which with 9TH
ers Is sent to the Dodge country home.
In a holdup Del Mars men fail to get
the trunk containing the torpedo. Elaine
hides the torpedo, which later is stolen by
Del Mars men, who in escaping meet the
old man of mystery. A desperate battle
follows, in which the old man destroys
the torpedo. Jameson Is captured by Del
Mars men while on his way to mail a
letter to the y. s. secret service. Elaine
rescues him. Lieutenant Woodward and
his friend attend a party given at the
Dodge home, at which Del Mar Is pres
ent. Unknowingly Del Mar drops a note
which gives Elaine clue. In her attempt
to prevent his cutting the Atlantic cable
she Is discovered and made a prisoner
by Woodward and the old man of mys-
terry. Jameson arrives in hydo-aero-
plane just in time to save Elaine from
drowning

seemed to have watched over us. Was

Walking along leisurely made my
way down to the shore. At a bridge
that crossed a rather turbulent stream

fectively.
Suddenly my vagrant interest was
aroused. Up the stream I saw some
one struggling in the water and shout
ing for help as the current carried her
along, screaming.
1t was Elaine. The hat and mus
tache of her disguise were gone and
her beautiful Titan hair was spread
out on the water as it carried her now

out with all her strength to keep

why she was there. I swung over the
bridge rail, stripping off my coat
ready to dive. On she came with the
swift current to the bridge. AS she
approached dived. It was not min

took her hand. Half pulling, half shov-
ing her, I struck out for the shore.
We managed to make it together
where the current was not quite so
strong, and climbed safely up rock.
Elaine sank down, choking and gasp

in amazement.

get those togs?" I queried.

She rose, determined to shake off
the effects of her recent plunge and
went toward the house. As helped

He attached another, smaller ma.

to the dial face.
He seized his glass and hurried to
the deck, leveling it at the shore and
leaning far over the rail in his eager
ness. AS he swept the shore, he
stopped suddenly. There was house

aerial fastened to the chimney, but
not quite concealed by the dense foil

an exclamation Of satisfaction, hand
ing over the glass.

way to the ladder over the side of the
yacht, and calling to the sailor who
had managed the little motor boat to
follow him.
Quickly they skinned across to the
shore. 81 think we'd better send to
the fort for some men," considered
Arnold as they landed. "We may need
re-enforcements before we get
through"
Woodward nodded and Arnold hast
lily wrote a note on a rather large
scrap of paper which he happened to
have in his pocket.
"Take this to Colonel Swift at Fort
Dale" he directed the sailor. "And
hurry"
The sailor Hoped off, half on run,
as Arnold and Woodward left down
the shore, proceeding carefully.

rectly under the trickle of water which
had once been the falls. She gazed
into the cave, curiously uncertain
whether she dared to go in alone or
not.
The emissary jerked fiercely at the
lever as he saw Elaine.
Above the falls a dam had been
built and by system Of levers the
gates could be operated so that the
water could be thrown over the falls
or diverted away, at will. As the man
pressed the lever the flood gates
worked quickly.
Elaine stood gazing eagerly into the
blackness of the cave. Just then a
great volume of water from above
crashed down on her, with almost
crushing weight.
How she lived through it she never
knew. But, fortunately, she had not
