the ladder with her and pointed in a
circle, beginning at the east and turn
ing south, then west, then north, as
he spoke:
"YOu say you saw man kill Fren-
eaul l say it was delirium. If 1t
were true, you don't know his name,
his country, or his motive; you would
hardly know his face if you saw him
again. No one knows who he is. He
may have taken a ship across the
ocean yonder If he is in that city,
among those millions, how can you
hope to find him? Look !"
The marvellous expanse of the har-
Dor, the rivers and bridges, and finally
the enormous city, terrified Gloria, but
she pounded her little fist on the para
pet and shook it at the infinite sky
above her in registration of her vow.
"Tll find him somehow Some
where Some when !"
Royce stared at her and loved her
more than ever, hopelessly, helplessly.
She leaned on the parapet and gazAl

FIGHTING FIRES IN TIMBER
Aid Rendered by AIidade and Phone in
ConfIagrations That Threaten I'M
mense Loss.
(TO BE CONTINUED)

Battles against timber fires in the
great national forests of the West are
conducted with a wonderful degree of
precision and strategy, as the result
of systematic operations Of the United
States forest service.
According to the Popular Science
Monthly, a forest supervisor who may
be many miles from the scene Of a
fire, marshals his forces and fire-fght3
ing facilities and directs the attacks
and flank movements of his men.
LookOuts stationed on mountain
peaks and other promontories that
command a wide range of vision are
each supplied with a plane table to
which is attached a map of the sur
rounding country, its position being
determined by means of a compass.
The map is inclosed in a segmented
circle and the location of the station
is indicated by a pin. A simple ali
dade Gan alidade is the upper part of
a surveyors theodolte) consisting of
a ruler with uprights for sighting pur-
poses at either end, or some similar
device, is included in the equipment.
When a lookout sees smoke issuing
from a portion of the forest over
which his station commands a view,
he Immediately sights it with his ali
dade and notes that it is coming from
a point so many degrees east or west
of q north and south line extending
through his station. He notifies his
supervisor by telephone, telling him
of the apparent size of the fire and its
location. Lookouts in other sections
of the forest also detect the fire and
make similar reports to the supervis-
or's headquarters. Reports from two
or more stations enable the supervisor
to locate the fire on a map by means
of intersecting lines.

"Hush," she said, and put her fin
ger across his lips. Don't say it,"
It seemed treachery of the basest
sort to discuss such a topic. She bent
her head in apology to the memory of
her lover. Her downcast eyes caught
Il sparkle in the depth of her fathers
waistcoat pocket. She knew that it
was the ring he had taken from her.
He had not yet put it in the safe or
thrown it into the river.
Gloria was startled. Her lips parted
to speak the demand she had come
to make. But her father was staring
into the fire with such a contented
look that she could not bear to start
such a scene as he would be sure to
make. He was a great man for get
ting what he wanted and for keeping
it, once it was got.

seemed to say: "Steal me. He took

belong to you"
Gloria had had no previous expert
ence as a pickpOSset, but she under
stood how exciting the profession must
be. Her father was an unsuspecting
and an easy victim. She had only to
lay her cheek against his as a blind
fold and while her hair got into his
eyes and made him squirm she cap
tured the ring. She was afraid at once
that he would miss it, speak of it,
reach for it, and find it gone. She
dared not linger.
$50 back to your cards, you old
darling" she said, kissed him half a
dozen good-nights and left.
She ran up to her loom and set the
ring in place again on her finger. She
rejOced in it a moment. Then her
heart sunk. Her father would not
tolerate a combination of disobedience
and robbery. The main thing was to
keep the ring. She put it in a little
chain and fastened it about her neck.
And there she wore 1t until-until her
quest was ended and she had learned
the truth. Much time and many ad-
ventures lay between this night and
that day.
Her father went back to his soil
taire and did not Las the ring for
hours. Then he raised a mighty poth-
er. He had the old butler on all
tours looking everywhere for the ring.
He even had the ashes in the fireplace
sifted. He suspected everybody but
Gloria. She was asleep in loneliness
that was somewhat assuaged by her
hdelity and her mission.
The next morning Gloria set about

HARRISON COMES IN
RARE BIRD CLASS

A tenor Is a rare bird, and especial
" an American tenor. It has long
been thought that bona fide tenors
must be imported from Italy or Ger
many or France or Poland, just as a
certain brand of canaries are shipped
from the Hartz mountains somewhere
over there in Europe: and If il should
happen that one Of these ornithologi-
cal specimcns-tcnors, not canaries--
should be found native to this country,
at any rate he must, in order to sur
vive among the fittest. wear his hair
in some foreign style and assume a
foreign name.
But America is coming into her
own and asserts her independence In
tenors as well as in other things.
Charles W. Harrison, who appears
here at the high school auditorium to-
morrow night in joint recitals with
1.-THE pianist, Otto L. Fischer, openly
I'boasts that he is an American. He
wears American hair and American
clothes, walks American and talks
American, and his name has never

mains plain Charles. All this indie
pendence of tradition might lead some
benighted souls to conclude that Mr.,
Harrison is not q serious artist. But
he most decidedly is. Anyone who
can can forth unadulterated praise
! from Boston and near Boston papers
has simply got to be an artist.
Says one of them Charles Harri-
son is one of the few tenors who can
sing the heavy work OF the Strabat
| Mater effectively. He possesses n fine
voice, its best characteristics being
perhaps its lack of evident effort.
I And another: He brought to his So
los fine reverental spirit and the
recitative and aria were rendered with
dignity ana impressiveness.'

pleasing. for it exhibits the whole

As a production, Excuse Me" is
distinct novelty. All of the action
takes place ON Il railroad train during
a trip from Chicago to the Pacific
coast, and as a result the stage pie
lures show the interior Of Il Pullman

The three acts of the play are

There are half dozen countcr-plots,
all of the laugh-provoking variety.
Excuse Me" was written solely with
the idea Of affording two and three

author had fully realized his purpose.
The piece was staged by the boys
themselves according to their custom,

THE ETERNAL CITY
SEEN BY THOUSANDS
IN LARGEST CITIES

But short time ago "Thc Eternal
City" the motion picture adaptation of
Hall Gaines amazing story, had an ex-
tended run at the auditorium Los An
gees and was witnessed by more than
20. 900 people who paid admissions
ranging from 25 cents to 81.
The same subject comes to the
Crystal theatcr. Albuquerque, direct
from Los Angeles yet the admission
price here will be only 10 cents for
children under II years of age, and
but 25 cents for adults to the best
seats in that playhouse.
1t is well-known fact locally that
the admission charged in the largest
cities To witness the foremost picture
features is far in excess of what Is
charged in Albuquerque, and which is
well illustrated in the instance of
THE Eternal city"
Since the advent of the Frohman
family into motion pictures there has
been a serious effort to elevate and
dignity the art of the silent drama,
and the vast possibilities along these
lines are fully demonstrated in THE
Eternal City"
Rome the one-time capital Of the
world, passes before the eye in pic
torial panorama, and. emphasized by
the dramatic intensity of the stirring
plot in relief against this classic back
lground, there progresses one Of the
most powerful and appealing ro-
mances ever put into pictures.
Pauline Frederick, who portrays the
role Of Donna Roma" with incompar
able charm and grace. is supported by
u cast of international players Of such
note as is seldom assembled for one
picture production, and these are aug
mented by thousands--not hundreds
of men, women and children especial
~ trained for the great scenes in ''The
Eternal City"
No summary of bare facts could adj
equatcly describe the historical accur-
Iaey and dramatic integrity of this film
adaptation, and when the author, Han
Game saw the picture and said This
Is little short OF marvellous" he mere
tly condensed the hundreds of favora-
bic reviews heapcd upon the produc-
ers of his story into picture form.
