that all of them will be pushed. Under
a law passed at the last session, con-
tests for house and senate seats will

The question whether there. will be
changes in senate committees is re-
oeiving not a little attention from
members of that branch of the legis-
lature. Lieutenant Governor Frank
son, it is said, has written letter to
each of the senators requesting his
views on the matter but so far has
not made the answers public. 1t is
possible, though, that there will be
some changes.
The big telephone companies have
just announced a slight reduction in
certain classes of toll rates, all of
which is quite acceptable. The reduc-
ton, however, is so small and benefits
so few telephone users that it
amounts to practically nothing. That
the big telephone companies of the
state are due for a searching investi-
cation as far as their toll rates are
concerned is certain and the reduction
announced is undoubtedly in anticipa-
ton of such. AS to the increase in
toll rates made better than a year
ago and which have netted the COM

railroad and warehouse commission,

less to give any relief. That the leg

Later the two had luncheon at the

him. He knew that, with the proper
poise, he could make the plunge in
safety, to swim to freedom and lurk
along the dock until the sun dried
his clothing blue, such as the
TRUSTEES wore. He did not want free
dom. He wanted death.
He Ieaped. He felt himself whirl
through the air. And even then,
against his will. automatically the
habits of the diver asserted them
selves. He cleft the cool surface of
the water easily, held his breath,
swan under the waves and emerged
upon the surface.
He could not drown. He cursed
himself bitterly. What should he do
now?
The answer came automatically.
Not a hundred yards from him the
great steamer lay anchored, appar-
entIy-no, drifting on the tide. From
her bridge poured a mass of sooty
flame. She was on fire and the wheel
could not be held or reached.
He heard her sirens boot fearfully.
Then she seemed to keel over, and on
the sloping deck stood tiny figures
that shrieked for help and looked
down in terror into the seas as the
fire, gaining stronger hold, swept the
vessel from end to end.
Boats were pushing out from both
sides Of the channel, but the flames
were spreading with terrific speed.
And suddenly Dent found that he
was striking out, like a practiced
swimmer, toward the blazing ship.
Some instinct carried him there, for
there was nothing he could do, and
this accident meant his safety. Why, |
he could pass as a passenger!
The heat was almost intolerabIe
upon his face, but arm over arm he |
fought his way onward until at last |
he found himself in the water, al
most level with the decks edge,

side. A group of passengers was
clustered there, making desperate
efforts to launch the last boat that
remained, while the smoke drifted
and coiled about them.
Dent looked quickly across the
water after he had scrambled
aboard. The oncoming boats seemed
UNNECESSARILY far away. There
seemed no possibility that they could
arrive before the sweeping fires en-
quilted the vessel. Men were already
beginning to jump. Then Dent was
aware of a woman and child that
stood helplessly at the extreme edge
of the boat The woman was shield
ing the child's face from the flames
and looking down wildly into the
water.
AS Dent neared them a fat man
came bursting through the crowd.
He snatched a Iifebelt from a slight
er man and began hurTiedly to adjust
it. The other turned upon him,
grasped the Ifebelt again and began
putting it upon the woman. The bull
" turned On him and knocked him
senseleSs.
Dent grasped the belt out of his
hand and a wild fight began. The fat
man, coward though he was, fought
like the devil for that one chance of
life. He smashed Dents face with his
fists, but Dent, who had tossed the
lifebelt to the woman, stood up to
his antagonist until a sudden lurch
of the ship threw the fat man from
his feet and sent him sliding across
the deck.
He entered the fiery he'll. His
screams rang out for an instant
above the cries of the panic-stricken
crowd. Then Dent turned to the
woman.
''Nop' he said, seeing her fitting
the belt about the baby. 81 will take
