CHAPTER VII.
in Which Tom and Attend Several
 Funerals.


 Funerals.
 When Tom and I came to look over the ground with a view to finding q burial place for the dead I realized with grim emphasis the truth of Charlie Webster's remarks-in those snuggery nights that seemed so re- mote and far away-on the nature of the soil which would have to be gone over in quest of my treasure. No won- der he had spoken of dynamite.
 "Why, Tom," I said, "there isn't a wheelbarrow load of real soil in a square mile. We couldn't dig a grave for dog in stuff like this" and, as I spoke, the pewterlike rock under my feet changed and echoed with a metal lie sound.
 Come along, Tom, can't stand any more of this. We'll have to leave our funerals till tomorrow, and get aboard for the night'-for the Maggie Darling was still floating there serenely, as though men and their violence had no existence on the planet.
 "We'd better cover them up, against the turkey buzzards," said Tom, two of those unsavory birds rising in the air as we returned to the shore. We did this as well as we were able with rocks and the wreckage of an old boat strewn on the. beach.
 I don't think two men were ever so glad of the morning, driving before it the haunted night After breakfast our first thought was naturally to the sad and disagreeable business before us.
 q tell you what I've been thinking, sar," said Tom, as we rOwed ashore, and I managed to pull down a turkey buzzard that rose at our approach happily our coverings had proved fair ly effective-"Tve been thinking that the only one of the three that really matters is the captain, and we can find sufficient soil for him in one of those big holes.'
 How about the others?"
 "Well, to tell the truth, was think ing that sharks are good enough for them"
 'Ihey deserve no better, Tom, and I think we may as well get rid of them first"
 So it was done as we said, and car rying them by the feet and shoulders to the edge of the bluff-George, and Silly Theodore. and the nameless giant who had knocked me down so oppor- tunely-we skillfully flung them in, and they glided off with scarce a splash.
 Then we turned to the poor captain and carried him as gently as we could over the rough ground to the biggest of the banana holes, as the natives

To this place we may often return to watch the dawn stealing over the paddy fields, whilst at our feet the palm trees rise through a veil of purple mist; or when at evening the pink rays of the setting sun are shooting halfway to the ze- nth we may come up here and see the thousand pinnacles of Bangkok, out lined in the rifts between low-lying clouds against a smoky orange sky.

Chicago Hotel Annex
Destroyed by Fire
(Ry Associated Press)


CHICAGO, March 11.-Half dozen
women tainted, as many others were
overcome by smoke and these with
nearly 225 men and women employees
of the Morrison hotel, were assisted
down fire escapes early today when
fire broke out in a five story brick
annex to the hotel which is used as
a dormitory for the employees. The
persons overcome by smoke were car
ried into the hotel drug store and
were soon revived.
All guests at the hotel, located at
the southeast corner of Clark and
Madison streets were aroused and no
titled to leave the structure, as pre-
cautionary measure. The fire did not
reach the hotel proper, however, be-
ing confined to the annex on the
Clark street side. The fourth and
fifth floors were burned before the
blaze was brought under control. The
damage was estimated at $4,000.
There were fifteen hundred guests
in the hotel, of which number about
five hundred left the building.
A report that two maids were miss
ing led to a search of the burned an
mex as soon as the firemen could en-
ter the structure but no bodies were
found.

LOCAL SHOE men AT

J. f. VESSEL, David Teeple, Earl
Bills, Merle Bowen, O. P. Nusbaum,
Bert Phillips and Henry Stein are
attending the ninth annual convention
of the Indiana Retail Shoe associa-
ton which opened at the Claypool
hotel in Indianapolis Monday.
O. p. Nusbaum, a director, repre-
senting the retailers, talked on shoe
conditions at the session Monday af-
ternoon. Mr.. Nusbaum has also been
named chairman of the nominating
Cambridge City was named chairman
of the committee on reception for the
state association.
Over AGO dealers are in attendance.
More shoes are on exhibit than in
any previous convention.
Shoe dealers declare that returning
soldiers have caused great demand
for larger shoes and wider lasts.
There is little demand for the narrow
English last.
They say that indications for the
future are that mems shoes retailing
at less than So and women's at less
than SO may be slightly cheaper in
the future but that the higher priced
shoes will be more expensive. This
is due to the demand for high-grade
leather both in America and abroad.
Styles in the autumn for women
will favor brown and medium grays.
There will be more fancy styles
shown and a demand for black shoes.
