Meanwhile, back OF that wall Of wa
ter, the wireless operator in the cave
was sending the messages which Del
Mars emissary dictated to him, one
after another.

With the high resistance receiving
apparatus over his head, Arnold was
listening 10 the wireless signals that
came over his radio detective" on the
yacht, moving the slider back and
forth on a sort of tuning coil, as he
listened, Woodward stood close be-
side him.
"As you know" Arnold remarked

Der of stations. In other words, this

"Are you getting anything now?"
asked Woodward.
Arnold nodded. as he seized a pencil
and started to write. The lieutenant
bent forward in tense interest. Finally
Arnold read what he had written and
with a peculiar quiet smile handed It
over.
Woodward read. It was a senseless
tumble of dots and dashes of the Morse
code but, although he was familiar
with the code, he could make nothing
out of 1t.
TITS the Morse code all right" he
said, handing 1t back with a puzzled
look, but It doesn't make any sense"
Arnold smiled again, took the paper,
and without a word wrote on it some
B.ore. Then he handed it back to
Woodward. "An old trick" he said.
Reverse the dots and dashes and see
what you get"
Woodward looked at it, as Arnold
had reversed it and his face lighted
up.
"Harbor successfully mined" he
quoted in surprise.

Arnold energetically. IT'S not only a

rectly under the trickle Of water which
had once been the falls. She gazed
into the cave, curiously uncertain
whether she dared to 30 In alone OF
not.
The emlssary jerked flercely 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 80 that the
water could be thrown over the falls
or diverted away. at will. AS the man
pressed the lever the food 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 1t she never
knew. But, fortunately, she had not
gone quite far enough TO get the full
force Of the water. Still, the terrific
flood easily overcame her.
She was swept. screaming, down the
stream.

He attached another, smaller ma
chine to the wireless detector. In the
face was moving finger which swung
over dial marked off in miles from
one upward AS Arnold adjusted the
new detector, the hand began to move
slowly. Woodward looked eagerly. It
did not move far, but came to rest
above the figure 49,"
mot so very far away, you see,
lieutenant" remarked Arnold, pointing
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
roof among the trees with a wireless
aerial fastened to the chimney, but
not quite concealed by the dense foli-
age.
Look" he cried to Woodward, with
an exclamation of satisfaction, hand
ing over the glass.
Woodward looked. "a secret wire
less station, all right" he agreed, low
ering the glass after long look.
WED better get over there right
away" planned Arnold, leading the
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. Il think we'd better send to
the fort for some men" considered
Arnold as they landed. 1--WE may need

Woodward nodded and Arnold hast

scrap of paper which he happened to
have in his pocket.

The sailor loped off, half on run,

MT. Alfred Lomen states that he is much impressed with the possibilities of gardening since his visit to Candle and Keewalik owing to the number of fine crops of garden growths witness ed in that vicinity. Al says that there are no finer looking gardens in Alas ka than those of Mrs. Kepner and Mrs. Dankert at Keewalik. In addi- tion to raising excellent celery the first lady has also had remarkable suc- cess at raising caulifiower and has some fine plants growing in her gar den. The garden of Mrs. Dankert also is a fine sample of what may be done in the north through intelligent gar dening methods as she has been very successful in raising all kinds of gar den stuffs.

Ben Nyggren arrived from he whal- ing station at the cape this morning and reports that the Whales are com mencing to show up and a number have already been taken. Ben says that the herring are showing up in considerable shoals and the whales are always in evidence in the neighbor- hood of schools of tom cod and her. ring He tells an interesting story of young whale becoming so excited over chasing the herring, day or two ago, that he ran himself high and dry on the shore.
 It is also stated that considerable number of men have visited the local ty during the last day or so for the purpose of sizing up the work to be done in rebuilding the road around Cape Nome It is said that the road commission will let the contract for rebuilding in short sections so that the work will be distributed among as many men as possible. There are about eight thousand feet of road to be constructed and the plan of Con- missioner Dan Jones will enable a considerable number to obtain some thing to do.

MT. Johns, the revenue official who is at present in the city displays an interesting photo of an auto car in which he travelled from Flat City to Iditarod while in that vicinity and which should give tip to some of our local transportation people. The conveyance is an auto cut down to somewhat narrow width, but wide enough to accommodate two passengers seated abreast very comfortably and is fitted with Hanger wheels in place of the usual tires so that it may be tween the points named a distance of run on rails. The machine runs be- seven miles several times per day and is very efficient and rapid means of conveyance. MT. Johns states that there are no regular rails employed in the operation and traction is obtained by means of wooden rails composed of four by fours laid on a corduroy of sticks and brush. The car carries four or five people.
