found that owing to the peculiaS for
nation of the mass as it fell 1t had
bridged close above his head and left
him unhurt. Quickly they dragged him
forth.
AS John stood upon his feet the
watchman pointed to the dead body
on the ground.
81 always said that this pile would
come down. You have played in great
luck, stranger, but poor George is done
for" Casting but glance at the un-
recognizable face Of the dead truck
man, John, breathing his thanks over
his own escape, went upon his way
while the foreman, with command
to his assistant to have the body re-
moved, followed in the others steps.
Arriving at the Seabird, the foreman
spoke.
81 understand they have knocked off
work for the afternoon on Alamac
Island, but there's skiff load of stuff
promised to send over to the fore
man who will be there. Do you mind
towing it across"
"Glad to accommodate you" return
ed the unsuspecting John.
The Seabird was an open launch
with no cabin, and Davis stepped
aboard and went over the engine. Puff
ing at his cigar, the foreman fastened
the painter of the sk1ff to the launch,
and making sure that Davis eyes were
turned in an opposite direction, touch
ed the end of the fuse which the Spider
had laid with the glowing cigar.
Crawling like a red serpent out of
sight beneath the tarraulfn the spark
disappeared up the fuse on its way to
the .skiff's load Of death, and at the
same time the engine started beneath
Johns manipulations. With farewell
waves of their hands the foreman and
the one in the launch, towing his ter
rible burden, bade each other good
day.
AS the Spider came crawling from
the place where he had hidden him
self, the foreman addressed him.
'eIf you take my car and drive as
though the devil was after you, you
can get to the foot bridge at the other
end Of the island and beat him to it In
case he ever gets there with that in
fernal machine behind him." With a
nod Of understanding, Bellas went hur-
rying away.
Twelve-thirty having arrived, Ethel
went to her room telephone. Calling
up Caldwell, Brace & Co., she learned
that Davis had been there but had gone
to the island. Answering her inquiries
as to how she, also. might reach the
island, she was told that the most prac-
ticable way for her from the hotel was
to take the automobile road to the
foot bridge at the south end. She turn
ed to Rainface.
sI cannot stand this. I am fearful
whenever he is absent. I am going to
find him."
"Nfe too" grunted the Indian. 'Wait." !"
Passing to Johns room he returned
with a small automatic gun which he
gave her, saying:
"You need sometime, mehbyso."
Securing motor car they went driv-
ing along the road which! had been
described to them. AS they reached
the edge Of the hay, far out upon its
surface they saw the flash Of an ex-
p]osion, and a few seconds later
1all boom burst upon their ears. The
girl grasped her companion.

RAISING TELEPHONE RATES


The Star-Mirror has been criticised
for its suggestion that the citizens OF
Moscow and the manager of the Mos
cow Telephone & Telegraph company
get together for consultation over
the proposition to raise telephone
rates here and ascertain if the pro-
posed rate is really justified by the
facts. We believe there would be
nothing unfair in this and that the
people of Moscow are willing to learn
the actual facts.
This paper opposed the proposed
raise in rates several months ago be-
cause it believed the rates asked for
were unjust. 1t has learned many
things about the business of this tele-
phone system since then and it be-
lieves that it will not hurt the people
of Moscow to investigate and get at
the actual facts. Surely knowledge
of the actual condition of so import
ant a function of our city's business
life as the telephone cannot be harm
full. We still believe that our sugges-
ton of "come. let us reason together"
does not mean disloyalty to Moscows
best interests or unduly favoring the
telephone company.
If the facts are as they have been
presented to the writer we believe
fhe peOple of Moscow will he in favor
of an increase in rates. If they are
not as represented to us we want to
know it and the people should know
1t. We are not lawyer and do not
know whether or not the government
has a legal right to increase rates.
But one does not have to be a lawyer
to know right from wrong and wheth-
er a corporation can continue to do
business at a loss. With the best in
terests of the people of Moscow, the |
business interests, which includes all |
business enterprises in Moscow, we
suggested that the people who patron
ize the telephone system meet Mr.
Vest, the proprietor and consult to-
gether. This paper suggested that
he people of Moscow assist, in eve
ry way possible, the Spokane and In
land Empire Electric railroad, not be-
c1use it wanted to help that road to
ne detriment of other roads, but be-
;anse we believed it would be a di-

ROYAL ARCH MASONS AND
KNIGHTS TEMPLAR HERE

The conventions of the Royal Arch
Masons and the Knights Templar of
Idaho are in session in the Masonic

livered a short address. The regular
business sessions opened at $50 this
morning with fair attendance of
visitors and local members. At noon

lieve that if the Moscow Independent
telephone system is compelled to sell
to the Pacific system, which is vir-
tually a trust, that rates will be rails
ed higher than the rates asked by Mr..

had them raised in Washington de-
spite vast sums contributed by COM
mercial clubs and business men to
fight the proposed rates before the

We still think that friendly meet

get at the facts will be better than
an antagonistic contest before the

 What action the Allied govern ments have concluded to take if the German Delegation rejects the treaty is. not known, but it is believed in we'll informed quarters, that gen. eral advance of the Allied army of occupation will be ordered and that the pressure thus exerted will force Germany to accept the treaty uncon- ditionally.

Not a peace as proposed by the Allied govern ments that reduces the German na- ton to slavery and binds the chains of servitude upon unborn genera tions.
