Francis Charles did not rise with the
lark. In lieu of that fute-yolced har-
linrcr Of the dawn. Florrie Barnett
the Bowery minstrel, chantcd "Swee'
Rose O'Gradv." A boot hurtled over
Moran's transom and dropped upon the
head Of the songster.
In half an hour Francis Charles sat
down with his little house party TO
bacon and eggs. Then he trotted about
four miles through the snow when
covered the lev surface Of Lake sara
togs. after which the busy Wine
Lewis rubbed several quarts Of mystic
rious oils into his broad back and
shoulders.
Ia the afternoon We went ASA ing
with ex-Mariner Moran. With nice little
niprv breeze behind we SKINNED over
the lake on an ice boat for few miles,
lappjne up enormous quantities OF air
with genuine oxygen IN It,
Fond of Ice Boating.
"Onc newspaper man asked me II /

training stunts ] know Of. II ms
tho lungs with pure air, and ! am
a wolf for fresh air. The good that ]
Get out of il will last a month. And
isn't this soothing
The ice boat was gliding forward as
true as a billiard ball and the air was
rushing b.. "Now, I'll show you some
navy sailing" We whirled back on an
other tack heading directly for lie Dor
gan. who began to fec for his life. The
ice boat glided past him and Moran
turned again, circling the wealthy man

enough TO superintend the cooking Of
the luncheon. One of Boniface u
Tiers pet pigs was sacrificed for the
meal He must have been on the road
with Moran of mornings, for ne had
been in excellent shape Immediately
prior to his demise.
Moran is not eager 10 start the gym
nasjum work. What he IS seeking most
eagerly is to pile up few storage pat
teries with solid energy. lie feels mat
he knows al the boxing he needs IN
his business. He has his tentative
plans for combat all mapped out. Coh-
ditioning is his sole aim. So,
Francis Charles has never seen VIII

ON the way to New Yorh Moran plans
n short stop at Albany. He has been
asked By naval recruiting oihcer 20
sneak a few words TO some prospective
recruits for the United States Navy.
Moran is n living demonstration that
the service cannot do man any harIn'
A Recruiting Officer.
Moran was one OF the recruiting Of
fcer's best little helps just before he
LIFT London. Francis Charles had q
neat little speech about the sacredness
Of the service afoot and ashore. and
he sent followers Of pugilism by the
score to the colors in England.
The Danish strain that Is mixed
with the Moran blood shows when he
gets the tiller even OF an lceboat HIS
ewes dance with the delight OF one Of
his. sea rowing ancestors. With ms
tawny hair tossed by the wind, he looks
Ike d fine young Danish pirate in his
native element.
Haven't you silment or ache!" we
demanded. Here is your opponent
with a round dozen Of alibis In case OF
a defeat, while you have none. Cannot

"Alibis are barred" grinned Moran
as far as they 60 the Moran forces
have burned their bridges behind them
