He had not time to pass the house
before the figure Of a man lurched
from the building and crossed the side

Harley stopped. He had to in order
to avoid running over the man. The
latter staggered around to the door of
the car and held out his hand.
Il thought twas you, Harley" he
said thfckly. II want to offer congrat-

Harley recognized the interloper
with a start. He was Jack Boison.
Jeans brother. He had not seen Jack
for some time and had forgotten about
him.
Things going to be fine now, eh,
Harley?' the other went on, raising
foot to the running board of the
car. wide open, Ell? Thash fine.
Put 'er there" and he shook hands
again with the mayor elect.
THANK you for your congratula-
tons" said Harley, as he prepared to
start the car. But Jack did not take
his leave.

The other obeyed, and shortly after
the machine stopped before the home
OF the mayOr-elect and the latter
dragged his passenger into the house.
BY this time Jack was in a stupOr, and
Harley put him to bed and locked the
door on him.
Then the mayor-elect went to his
study, and sat in the swivel chair, and
smoked three cigars, one after the
other, and there was no smile of tri-
umph on his face-only q dark scoWl
and an expression about the lips as
though he had tasted something dis
agreeable.
Finally, with decisive click of his
teeth, he reached for the telephone.
The face of the clock, dimly lighted
by a desk lamp, showed the hands
at half-paSt two.
He took down the receiver and gave
number.
Hello, Hennison," Harley called
presently. "This is Wentworth. Say,
HennisOn, you'll have to call that Off

that. You've got to shut that place
up, and shut it tight. I'm not fool

going to be mayor of Kenton, and the
towns going to prosper, and it's going
to be decent, too. Good-by."
The mayor-elect tilted back in his
swivel chair and smiled with a quiet
sort of triumph, and he sat there a
long time, gazing at the picture of

Drane, with his two native boy companions, went on down to the Minto portage and
 off to the lake camp, some twelve miles across the frozen lakes. Here were all the Minto Indians, well and hearty, and all busy at every thing, from turning muskrat skins to making birch bark canoes. Here
 also was found the remnant of
 the Torchaket camp, consisting of
 'Skookum" John, Dick Albert, wife and three children, and Pete Solo,

TANANA ID SAIL FOR UPPER YUKON
 AT l TOMORROW

The steamer Panama, first vessel of the American Yukon Navigation company to get into action this spring on the Panama river, is sched- uled to sail for Dawson direct to- morrow afternoon, connecting at some point on the Yukon river with the steamer Seattle No. 3 for the lower river, and at Dawson for the Outside. The Panama returned to port today from the mouth of the river, with tow of barges from their winter quarters near Hot Springs.
 The hour of sailing is subject to change, depending upon the return ,of Assistant Health Commissioner U. A. Sutherland and the action he may take upon the quarantine which lis now in force along the river. Dr. Sutherland left for Minto this afternoon on the launch Dan Patch to investigate conditions among the natives in that locality, and expects to return to Nenana tomorrow morning, by which time he probably will be able to determine whether or not the quarantine can be lifted with safety.
 The steamer Seattle No. 3, which wintered on the upper Yukon, is coming down with the employees of the Carlisle cannery, who were hired in the States, and will take on the Tanana's passengers for the lower a river, wherever the two boats hap 'pen to meet.

 Big Preparations Made
 The delegation of Shriners. which went from Phoenix to attend the Tue son ceremonial session is probably the largest ever to attend q ceremonial in this state from another city. It is ex- pected that more than 100 Shriners will register from this city.
 Tucson has been making elaborate preparations for this event, in fact. it has been announced that it will eclipse any previous ceremonial held in Ari- zona. The Scottish Rite Masons have been holding their spring reunion in Tucson since Tuesday and many Phoenix Masons who are members of the Shrine have been in Tucson since the first of the week witnessing the work of the consistory. They will re- main for the ceremonial.
 The patrol of Fl Zaribah Temple which has been trained under the di rection of Dr. D. D. Northrup, will make their first appearance in their new and handsome uniforms in the parade this evening. Tucson will think the circus has come to town when the Phoenix patrol parades down the street in their brilliant-hued uniforms, embroidered with rattlesnakes. horned toads and Gila monstres. They will shout their slogan: Let 'em crawl"
 The elaborate program will conclude Saturday night with a grand ball. This will be attended only by Shriners and their families.

Morton Picture Business
DATA


There are more than $4,000 Motion Picture
Theaters in the United States.
These theaters last year took into their box
offices the paid admissions of more than
g Billion 800 Million persons! (6,S000o0 oO0.
These admissions totaled the huge sum Of
900 Million Dollars! $500 OO0,0oO).
Daily admissions totaled more than $780,
600.
Profits go to the PRODUCER-THE DIS
TRIBUTOR-THE THEATER.
The Producer bases his rental charge to the
exhibitor on the popularity OF his STAR, the
DIRECTOR, the SUPPORTING CAST and the
AUTHOR of the scenario In many cases this
charge Is so excessive, due to the enormous
cost Of PRODUCTION that only the large
theaters or chain of theaters afford to book
such attractions. At least they can not book
them until they have become technically com
mercial' or "old run stuff"
We say advisedly that FIVE THOUSAND of
the $4,000 theaters will set aside one or two
days each week for pictures appealing to chill
dren and child grown-ups.
On such days. the admission charge would
be lowered, because the Producer would log
ically charge less for his pictures for the fol-
lowing good reasons:
I. No tremendous Stars salaries.
2. No fabulous prices for stories.
3. Small overhead expense In Studio
4. No salaries to supporting company lex
