 Smiling, too, she went up the narrow stair, but when tomorrow came she was absent from her place at the restaurant table.

 Yes, Bronson had heard, remembered having seen the model pictured in Franquetta's window, a graceful figure clad always in garments soft tinted as the oceans foam, and the model was his frank faced student-she of the tenement room. The two seemed ir- recoucilable.
 Abruptly he left his untasted meal; a satirical smile curled his lips. Sc his sympathy had all been wasted, im- posed upon. The green model of Fran quetta's was evidently in no need of pity.

PLANS FOR PORTLAND
 ALASKA STEAMSHIP LINE

Portland Telegram, Sept IT: Backed by shippers and other lead ing business interests of the city new steamer line, it ls-rumored, IS about to be established between Portland and points in Southeastern Alaska. It is stated the plans are for the inauguration of the service during the latter part Of the fall or early winter. Later the steam CTS may be sent as far north as Cordova. Because of railroad build ing business in that section Of Alaska IS expected to be unusually brisk the coming season.
 The report has it that several vessels have been purchased, or the deals practically have been closed, to be placed on the run between here and Southeastern Alaska. One or two of them, it is intimated, will have passenger accommodations. Throughout the year there is more or less travel back ana forth to that section, while Portland mer- chants are sending goods up there at frequent intervals under the present handicap of shipping via Seattle. Even by this method 1t is declared, they have been able to compete successfully, in a measure with the Sound merchants.
 When given assurance which will satisfy them of the permanency Of the line and of its being able to provide a regular schedule, it is claimed that the Alaskans will give 1t most liberal support In fact, 1t is through their efforts largely 1t is held, that a decision to eS- tabIish the line was reached, since some of the business men of the north long nave been dissatisfied with The system which makes them dependent almost wholly upon Seat tie to furnish them what supplies they as d.
 Just now many of the houses Ill the north are stocking up for the winter. Later heavy shipments will be sent to the numerous salmon cauneries, whose patronage alone 1t is believed, would go a long way toward keeping the line on pay ing basis. In order to give the right sort of service it is contend ed tha it will be necessary to place at least three steamers on the route. AS long as the run does not extend further than Southeastern Alaska 1t is calculated that this number of vessels would be capable Of giving a weekly service.
