CHAPTER XII.
The Return of the Boat.


The crew hurried over to the port
rail. Beyond doubt most of those
aboard realized that this had been an
expedition of some Importance, the cul-
mination of their long wait on the
coast, part of some scheme of their
chief, in the spells of which they ex-
pected to share. Moreover this boat
approaching through the darkness was
bringing back their leader, and how
ever else they might feel toward him,
the reckless daring, and audacious re-
sourcefulness of Sanchez meant sue
cess.
I was made to comprehend all this
by the low, muttered utte-ances of
those crowding near me, spoken in
nearly every language of the world.
Much could not translate, yet enough
reached my ears to convince me of
the temper of the crew-their feverish
eagerness to be again at sea, under
command of captain whom they both
hated and feared-a cruel, cold-blood-
ed monster, yet genius in crime, and
q natural leader of such men as these.
Black Sanchez! I listened to their
comments, their expectations, with
swiftly beating heart. I alone knew
what that boat was bringing. What
would be the result when the dead
body of their leader came up over the
rail?

Proud of His "Profession."

Burglars who served in the army
are going back to their old trade said
a London police official the other day.
"These men deliberately elect to live
by stealing because they find it adven-
turous. It was with the same spirit
that they Joined. the army. At least
one convicted burglar won the Victoria
cross" Confirmation of this charac-
teristic is provided by captain in a
famous fighting regiment, who declares
that one. of the bravest men in his
company, corporal with Dom. and
other honors, declared himself pro-
fessional thief "His one regret" re-
marked the officer, "was that the re.
cruiting authorities would not let him
describe his occupation on his attesta'
ton papers as burglar"

PROBE ORDERED
IN TREATY LEAK
Resolution Passed BY Senate
For investigation
ALSO ASKS FOR COPY
Johnson's Resolution Requesting
State Department To. Supply
1t To Senate Adopted
Debate Bitter.

Washington. - Resolutions asking
the State Department for the text of
the treaty with Germany and direct
ing the Foreign Relations Committee
to investigate how copies of the I'M
published document have reached
private hands in New York were
adopted by the Senate without roll
call.
Action on the two proposals came
Unexpectedly during a lull in the
stormy debate they had aroused, and
scarcely score Of Senators were in
the chamber when, in quick success
sion, the resolutions were put to a
vote. The passage itself, however,
was no surprise, as it generally had
been conceded that each would have
a majority.
The request for the treaty will be
referred by State Department officials
to President Wilson and Secretary
Lansing at Paris, and, pending re-
ply no official opinion is available
here to whether the text will be forth
coming.
Under the investigation resolution,
introduced at the request of the
White House by Senator Hitchcock,
Of Nebraska, senior Democrat of the
Foreign Relations Committee, it is ex-
pected that far reaching inquiry
will begin within few days.
Adoption of the Hitchcock resolu-
ton came first, just after the debate
had reached dramatic climax in a
clash between Mr.. Hitchcock and
Chairman Lodge, Of the Foreign Re-
lations Committee. After this clash
a request by Mr.. Lodge that the Sen
ate substitute an investigation reso-
luton drawn by Senator Kellogg. Re-
publican, Of Minnesota, was with
drawn, and the questioz was put on
it's adoption.
The resolution asking for the treaty
text, introduced by Senator Johnson,
Republican, of California, then came
up automatically under the Senate
rules, and it was disposed of within
less than a minute, with only few
SCdLtereu EOSS II uau D00u. Op-
posed strbbornly during two weeks
of debate by the Presidents support
ers, and the general expectation had
been that the vote on it would be
close.
The text OF the Johnson resolution
follows:
Whereas, the peace treaty has
been completed and has been deliv-
cred to the representatives Of Ger
many, and
Whereas, synopsis only of the
treaty has been given publicity in the
United States and our people are en-
titled to know it's full contents, and to
what, if any, engagements they may
have been committed
Whereas, it is reported in the press
that the entire treaty has been cabled
to the Stale Department and is now in
the possession of the State Depart.
ment; now therefore be it
Resolved, That the Secretary of
State be and he is hereby requested, if
not incompatible with the public in
terest, forthwith to transmit to the
Senate the full text of the treaty of
peace completed at the Paris confer
ence and delivered to the representa-
tives OF Germany"

MOTORS INSTEAD OF DOGS
Sleigh Was Distinct
Success.

A spectacular trial trip was recently
made across the Cascades in motor
sleigh, and a number of photographs,
taken at various stages of the journey,
are reproduced in Popular Mechan-
les. The achievement Of the motor
sleigh was almost as amazing as that
Of the first army tank, conquering, as
1t did, all kinds of obstacles. Swimming
the surface of snowfalls, old or new,
the strange little vehicle broke its way
through primeval passes with never a
stumble. The rescue of an automobile,
hopelessly stalled in the drifts of Sno-
qualmie pass, was a mere incident in
its progress. Crossing deep gully on
pair of hemlock poles was but one of
the days adventures. The intended
substitution of the motor sleigh for the
dog drawn sledges Of Alaska's snow
bound post trails means more to the
people of that great territory than may
be generally realized. Jack London and
others have limned the malemute as a
romantic figure; but the followers of
the trail know well he is never that. 1t
Is the elimination of much human hard
ship, as well as canine inefficiency, that
recommends the gasoline method.

Characterization authorities here
have sent word to the over president
of the Rhine province to ignore orders
from Berlin transferring him to an
other province, the Americans believ-
ing that this move was political one
and connected with Berlin's efforts to
counterfeit the movement for the es-
adjustment of Rhenish republic. 1t
was declared in Wiesbaden on Sunday
that Berlin had also ordered the re-
moval of the over-president Of the
Treyes district, and that the Ameri-
cans had instructed this official TO
ignore his instructions from Berlin.

fer thet talk, an he's back o. LeVere.
Let's go in; them gaskets will hold all
right now-cum long"
could now perceive now clearly the
character I was destined to assume
when once safely aboard the Namur.
Such an assumption would involve but
slight danger of discovery. It was as
though miracle had opened the way,
revealed to me by the unconscious lips
of these two half-drunken, gossiping
sailors. The story told fitted my ne
cessities exactly. Had ! planned the
circumstances myself nothing could
have been better prearranged. No one
on board had seen the missing man by
daylight; he was believed to have
sunk without struggle. Yet no one
knew positively that this was so, be-
cause no one cared. The death of the
lad had simply been taken for granted
when LeVere had failed to see his
body rise again to the surface. Yet it
was quite within the realm Of posi-
bility for the fellow to come up once
more in that darkness, beyond Lee
Vere's range of vision, and even to
have remained afioat, buoyed up by
clinging to the anchor hawser, until
strong enough to return on board. At
least there was no one aboard the Ma
muir able to deny that this had been
done.
Satisfied by this reasoning Of being
able to pass myself off as the dead
man, began slowly and cautiously to
drag myself up the taut hawser. 1
had chosen fortunate moment for my
effort; no one needed the little noise
j made, and. when finally topped the
rail and was able to look inboard 1t
was to discover q deserted fore deck,
with the watch all engaged at some
task amidships. / crept down the fore
castle ladder and worked my way aft
beneath the black shadow of the port
rail. until able thus to drift unnoticed
into a group failing onto mainsail
halyard. The fellow next to me, with
out releasing his grip, turned his head
and stared. but without discerning my
features.

WONDER AT FORESTS QUIET
Travellers Have Frequently Com
mented on Apparent Deficiency OF
Animal Life in the Woods.

European travellers frequently allude
to the American forest as remarkable
for it's solitude and deficiency of AMI
NAL life. A foreigner is struck with
surprise, when rambling through the
bush, at the scarcity of birds, rabbits,
and hares, and astonished when in the
deepest recesses of the wild country
he sees no increase of their numbers.
When padding his canoe through lake
and river he will startle but few pairs
of exceedingly timid waterfowl, where
in Europe they swan in multitudes.
This scarcity of animals, I would re-
mark, is not peculiar to the American
wilderness. The same fact has been
observed in extensive forests both in
Europe and Asia; and in proportion as
the traveller penetrates into their in
teriors he finds a smaller number of
animals of almost every species. Birds,
insects and quadrupeds will multiply
in a certain ratio with the progress of
agriculture, so long as there remains
sufficiency Of wild wood to afford them
a refuge and a home They use the
forest chiefly for shelter, and the open
grounds for forage; the woods are
their house, the meadows their farm

SiIv,ering Mirrors.

There are several processes for sill
vering mirrors, the simplest of which,
perhaps, is to provide a large fiat
stone table and spread upon it evenly
a sheet of tinfoil without crease or
blemish. This is covered uniformly
to a depth of one-eighth inch with
mercury. The plate Of glass; perfect
ly cleansed of all grease and impuri-
ties, is floated in the mercury care
fully SO as to exclude air bubbles. 1t
is then pressed down by loading with
weights in order to press out the
mercury which remains fluid. After
about "a hours it may be raised on
it's edge to harden, and should be
finished in a few weeks. Another
method involves the use of solu-
tion made as follows: Mix one ounce
nitrate Of silver, three ounces water,
one ounce liquid ammonia and three
ounces spirits of wine. Filter after
solution has stood three or four hours.
To every ounce of the solution add
One-fOurth ounce sugar dissolved in
equal quantities Of water and alco-
hol. The surface to be silvered is
covered with this liquid at a temperA-
ture of 100 degrees, maintained till
the deposition Of silver is complete.
When dry, coated surface is covered
with mastjc varnish.
