! in Masonic Temple. 18th and Monroe
! streets northeast, last night. The asso-

prove housing conditions for the fire
men at Engine Company No. II. and

torzed

that the horses are better provided for
than the men at No. II. In arguing

runs to make in succession the horses
would have to make the second trip
slowly.

citation voted to thank William +. Ham,

The First Encounter.

Next morning Hilary drove slowly
through his property. He noticed with
approval a splendid growth Of white

try; Hilary had already come to that
conclusion. and TO this: that. properly
worked and managed. the st. Boniface
tract had the possibilities Of consider
able profits. perpetual q IL he cut
wisely and carefully.
After driving at a slow pace for half
an hour he emerged into a little
burned-over district, from which he
could see for a good distance on every
side Of him. He stopped the pony and
looked about him. trying to get his
bearings.
The road must run down to the
gorge. where was the main way be-
tween the mill and the Interior Of the
seigniory. Hilary decided.
He drove on again. The track had
been disused that season and was over
grown with creeping raspberry briers,
which made progress difficult. sind.
denly the underground fell away, and
the road ran upward again, hard and
firm. toward . bridge that SPAWNED Q
