 In 1893 Frederick Funston set out for Alaska on commission to collect botan- 1cal specimens. Today the trail over Chilkoot Pass is familiar, but at that time 1t was known only to Indian guides and few daring miners who had fol- lowed it's devious ways Funston with two companions went up the pass and over to the Yukon. One incident of the trip he describes in his own pieturesoue language as follows.
 The Indians carried the loads while We dragged the empty sleds. The snow fell necessarily for five days, and it lay along our route from 5 to 50 feet deep. Day after day we widowed and strug- gled on as we worked our way grad uaily upward to the summit of the range. One cheerful little diversion occurred on the second day.

would have failed. Her first impulse
was to return at once to the hotel, re-
join her husband, and tell him of her
experience.
Then this stubborn quality which
made her refuse TO admit defeat as
serted itself. She fully believed that
the woman she had been following
was in the house she had just left.
She had Hartmanns satchel. Grace
felt morally certain that Hartmann, if
he had escaped the police, would
either rejoin the woman here or the
woman would presently leave the
house and 60 to him.
Grace made up her mind to find out
which of these two things would hap
pen. If Hartmann Joined her here
she could summon the police and &C.
cure his arrest. If the woman went
to him his hiding-place would be dis.
covered. In either event, the man
would be apprehended.
And she felt certain that neither
Richard nor NJ. Lefevre knew of his
whereabouts, else hey would, one or
both of them, have been on his trail
the night before. 1t seemed to her
that the burden of the whole affair
lay upon her shoulders, and she de-
termined to assume it.
She rounded the1corner aS rapidly
as possible, SO that, if any one were
watching her from the house, they
might think she fed, then retraced
her steps to a point where she could
look back down the street from
whence she had come without herself
being seen. There was no one about.
She would have been glad could she
have telephoned to Richard; but none
OF the stores on the avenue were yet
open, and she dared not leave her post
long enough to seek hotel for fear
the woman might escape during her
absence. -, ..a.i4 .
She was hungry, tired, and faint
from loss Of sleep, but she determined
to wait where she was until the wom-
an she sought left the house.
1t was slow work. The early morn
ing pedestrians who now began to
appear looked at her curiously, and
one OF two of them ventured to speak
to her. She paid no attention to them,
but kept her eyes fixed on the door
way, two hundred feet to the west,
waiting for the woman with the
satchel.
1t was fully an hour before she ap-
peared. To Grace it seemed like six.
The woman stood for several mo-
ments on the steps, cautiously watch
ing to see whether or not she was OBJ
served, then walked to Sixth Avenue
and stood waiting for a southbound
car.
Grace realized instantly that she
could not follow her. Hidden as she
was in the doorway of store, she
knew the woman, who had crossed to
the far corner, could not see her, but
should she attempt to board the same
car detection would be inevitable. She
looked about for a taxi, but there was
none in sight.
Suddenly she observed that the
woman carried, in addition 10 the
satchel the man had left with her, a
large bundle secured in a shawl strap.
And the cover of the bundle, of
bright yellow and green plaid, was I'M
mistakably 4 steamer rug. She i'm
mediately remembered the word
"Richelieu" which Hartmann had
used so vigorously al the moment
when she had passed him and the
woman on the corner the night before.

Immediately chased away with threats

Thereupon he proceeded into the
adjoining room, espied proof sheet of

formed it into a semicolon. He then
placed his feet in the ink duct and put

Exasperated, the Office force chased
him, but the devil himself, with all his
traps, could not have captured this
interloper. He sneaked around bother
ing everyone in the office by his per-
sistent attentions and finally alighted
on the head of the editor in chief, who
was working out a road problem in his
private Office After many repeated
attempts to annihilate this winged
pest, which seemed determined to lay
eggs on his dome, the editor in chief
at last succeeded in crushing: with a
