that I had the wherewithal In my
Jeans to buy all the food l needed and
yet no way of getting 1t without en-
dangering my liberty and life.
At night. however. after 1t was dark.
would steal quietly out of the house
to see what could pick up in the way
of food. BY that time, OF course, the
stores were closed. but secured the
streets. the alleys and the byways for
scraps of food and occasionally got up

When was not at the keyhole Of the
door spent most Of my day on the top
floor In n room which looked out on the
street. BY keeping well away from the
window could see much Of what was
going on without being seen myself.
In my restlessness. used to walk bnck
and forth In that room and kept 1t up
30 constantly that believe must have

steps from one wall to the other, and

Just how much distance would have

footsteps had been taken In that direc-
ton instead OF Just up and down that
old room. l was very much surprised
to find that In three hours l crossed
the room no less than 5000 times and
the distance covered was between nine
and ten miles. 1t was not very graft
flying to realize that after walking all
that distance wasn't a step nearer my
goal than when ! started. but l had to
do something while waiting for Huy-
Tiger to help me, and pacing up and
down was g natural outlet for my
restiessness.

carry the cellar by force If they had
the slightest idea that / was there.
I took of my shoes and crept softly
and slowly to the cellar steps and then
step by step. placing my weight down
gradually so as to prevent the steps
from creaking, I climbed to the top.
The sight that met my eyes as !
glanced into the kitchen told me the

my condition 50 wretched. now had a
good place to sleep. at any rate. and l
did not wake every half hour or SO as
I had been accustomed to do In the
nelds and woods, and. Of course. my
hunger was not aggravated by the
physical exertions which had been
necessary before.
Nevertheless, perhaps because had
more time now to think of the hunger
pains which were gnawIng at me all
the time, I don't believe l was ever 80
miserable as l was at that period Of
my adventure. l felt so mean towards

house too late-that the bird hat

My position In that wine cellar was

everything that they could tear or pull
apart.
Before very long they would finish
their search upstairs and would come
down to the basement. What they
would do when they discovered the
wine had no idea. Perhaps they
would let themselves loose on II and
give me my chance. With Q bottle Of
wine In each hand figured ! could put
up a good fight In the dark. especially
as was becoming more and more ac-
customed to 1t and could begin to dis

Perhaps II yas twenty minutes be-
fore l heard what sounded like my
death-knen 20 me; the soldiers were
coming down the cellar steps! l
clutched a wine bottle In each hand
and waited with bated breath.
Tramp! Tramp! Tramp! In q mo-

beating. The mice scurried across the
floor by the scores, frightened no
doubt by the vibration and noise made
by the descending soldiers. Some of
the creatures ran across me where I
stood between two wine cases. but !

game to pay any attention to mice.

In the budget submitted to Congress as being the amounts needed for the mainten- mcc of work in the different departments of the government the largest sum is ask ed for the placing of new aids to navigation and charting the coast of Alaska. For this work S1.2OO,OOO is asked and includes the cost of the construction of two vessels for wire drag work This is not any too much when it is considered what a large coast
 inc Alaska has, and if the money expended ayes one ship from destruction or one per som from death by drowning, the invest mcnt will have paid dividends.
