 The negro and the Mexicans were working together on the Southern Pacific section this morning when one of the Mexicans said something derogatory about Americans. Booker grabbed up tamping bar and call ed the Mexicans to order. He forced them to line up, gave one of them an American flag, and then led them through the streets. Cheers greeted them along the line of march.
 At the least sign of defection in the ranks Booker brandished his iron bar and looked ugly. The army was extremely meek.

In fact, so assiduous has the editor of the Anchorage expo nent of Jeffersonian doctrine become in his efforts to prejudice his readers against Marshal Brenneman's corps of efficient depaties that the public is beginning to wonder if it is not more a personal than a public matter that causes these weekly diatribes against our worthy exponent of law and or der.

THE Territorial legislature will adjourn soon and the great domain of Alaska will be safe another two years. This august body of local Justinians passed many laws; some ludicrou". some needed and some that shOu.G be relegated to innocuous desuetude as soon as possible. The Territory had very fair working aggregation of laws before this body of sOlons was precipitated upon the public and would probably get along for few decades had they failed to pass any legislation at all. But the school laws are good and were badly need ed: the shelter cabins along the trails and the home for aged, together with many other bills were also a good feature of the 1917 assembly, but we believe a new country can be legis'

ably settled and smoking one of his eternal Russian cigarettes, 'I wish you would tell me why you disposed of that pearl the way you did. It wasn't quite up to our agreement, you know. It was to be given to me and I was to return it. Instead of that I had to make wild-goose chase out into the country"

 The chief, who was accustomed to reading faces, watched BOroday closely. But if there was tightening about the Russians eyes, 1t was very faint.
 You know blamed well" said the chief peevishly, just where l had to go to get that thing. And you know blamed we'll also that on Sunday after noon I always play poker. It was we'll, inconsiderate, to say the least"

The Russians fingers twitched in spite of him. The chief saw it and smiled under his heavy mustache.
 Do you mean that somebody shot

his-er-assistant you speak of? That is rather sad. Was there-much money?
 "Seventy-eight thousand dollars" said the chief, and put his cigar back in his mouth. There Is story be- hind 1t, Boroday, and it's that story l am going to get. I'm warning you be- cause you've played pretty square with me. I needed that pearl In my, busi- ness" .s Boroday rose.
 All right, chief" he said. "I am sorry about young Ward. I hope he wasn't killed" 's
 "He wasn't killed,", replied the chief. "And I haven't said his name was Ward. If you haven't had your break fast yet, we might breakfast together. overslept and haven't had time for anything"
 Ward came back to consciousness In the great four-poster bedstead in which old Hilary Kingston had lain in state. He felt very little pain and no curiosity at all as to his surroundings, only an overwhelming lassitude and weariness of life. Something-some- thing that mattered very much had gone out of existence. He could not remember what 1t was. There was a uniformed nurse by the | bed. He had a curious antipathy to asking her anything. He had made promise of secrecy to someone about what?
 l Toward evening he had managed to evolve out of his reviying conscious ness some faint memory of what had happened to him. He remembered that he was walking down hill and that he had fallen forward. For quite half-hour, late in the afternoon, he struggled to remember why he had gone down the hill.
 Then he got it. He had been up at the hall to see Elinor. It was Elinor who had gone out of his life. Elinor! ElinOr!
 He slept very little during the night, and as his fever rose. he called the nurse "ElInor," and begged her fran tically to tell him that something was not true.
 "Of course 1t is not true" said ths nurse, who was accustomed to being called various things.
 You did not mean it at sll?' He eyed her wistfully. The nurse was large and plain, with a wide, fiat face. You, with the eyes of a saint" said poor Ward, ito try to tell me that you are wicked. I see that it Is impos- sible. I think I can sleep now."
 The nurse put her hand. which was large and ill-shaped but very light and tender, on his head. And so he went to sleep.
