 AID CHILDREN

VALDEZ. May 15.-Four cases of clothing will be sent westward on the next Santa Ana for the use of the Natives in the Bristol Bay region. The shipment is being made by the Val dez Civic League and the clothing has been donnted by the people of Valdez. The shipment will go direct to Mrs Call, the United States com missioner in the Bristol Bay region, and she will attend to the distribu- tion of the clothes among the needy natives.
 The need for aid was so apparent to Judge F. N. Brown when he made the trip westward last season on the floating court that he started the movement and with the aid Of the la- dies has succeeded in securing a large amount Of clothing which will help to keep the natives warm during tho next winter. The shipment could not be made before this as the Santa Ana does not make calls in Bristol Bay except during June. July and August
 The Alaska Steamship company have ordered that the freight be car ried free and they will donate the freight as their share in aiding tho natives

him. Sooner or later We'll catch him."
Jean Darnell suIlenly agreed. but
privately confided to Drake that she
thought Wilkcrson had lost hisNnerve.
/ The climate did not suit her, nor the
food, nor the primitive modes of travel.
and her temper grew worse and worse.
Drake promised to do some investigat.
ing on his own hook. He was orcn
more completely under the woman's
domination. and he dreamed Of finding
the precious papers himself and SO put
ing Wilkerson out OF the running.
Strangely enough, the man. weakly
vicious as he was, WAS possessed by
an honest and whole souled love for
Jean.
She knew this. and at times her
tawny eyes rested on him with unnis-
taxable affection, but she knew per-
fectly well that she would choose
Wilkerson provided he made good by
gaining the master key and uncover
ing the wealth Of the great mother
lode.
1t was Drake who brought the news
of the riot in the temple and the out
come Of DORIS attempt to steal the
idol.
He was disguised and thought he
could get away with it" he went on.
But the priests were too quick for
him."
Wilkerson's shifty eyes narrowed.

II forgot to tell you that the idol
isn't there any longer" Drake con-
tinued. From what could learn
the temple wasn't considered a safe

when Drake set before her the diff

must take.
Both men promised to be gone only
so hong as would be needful to recover
the idol. and to both separately Sire
made it plain that she had gone as far

and for two days kept pretty closely

LABOR DAY IS
REAL HOLIDAY
No Public Celebration was Planned
and People Generally OBJ
served Il.

Labor day which was observed Mon
day was real holiday for practically
everyone in Keokuk. Although no
general celebration was planned for
the day in the way of parades and
meetings. the employees Of the fac
tories and business houses were given
the day to use as suited them best.
Many private picnic parties were
planned, and the ball park proved a
big attraction to many. The day was
generally observed as holiday, and
the workingman and his family en-
joyed it to the utmost.
