LUND AND CARLSON.

Synopsis on the San
Francisco water front. John Raj
ney. newspaper reporter. is accost-
ed by a giant blind man. who asks
Rainey to lead him aboard the
sealing schooner Karluk. In the
cabin they find Captain Simms and
a man named Carlson. Simms rec
ognizes the blind man, calling him
Jim Lund. Lund accuses Simms of
abandoning him, blind, on an ice
foe, and denounces him. Ssmms
denies the charge. but Lund re-
fuses TO be pacified. He declares
his intention of accompanying the
Karluk on it's expedition north.

field which Lund has discovered.
Peggy, Simms' daughter. is aboard.
and defends her father. Carlson,
who is a physician as well as first
mate, drugs Rainey. Awaking from
his stupor, Rainey finds himself at
sea. Garrison informs him he has
been kidnapped. He offers Rainey a
share of the gold, and Rainey is
forced to declare himself satisfied.
Lund gives him a brief account of
a former expedition of the karluk,
tells him he distrusts Garrison, and
suggests a partnership" Rainey

Simms is i'll and the navigation is

CHAPTER Vl-continued.

"All right, sir" Rainey answered,
getting a thrill at this first actual in
ttmation of the meeting. Hansen, it
seemed, was not to be one of the rep
resentatives of the seamen. And
Carlson had been smart enough to
forestall Lund's demand for Rainey by
taking some of the wind out OF the
giants sails and doing the unexpected
Unless the hunters had suggested that
Rainey be present. But that was hard
gy likely, considering that he was to
be left out of the deal.
In just what capacity are you call

Garrison notified him in turn. THE
skipper amt dead, is he?"

piled the doctor. He entirely APP

corded. Afore | go to emmy meetin' I'd
like to have a talk with him personal

Several of the hunters had gathered
about, and Lund's question seemed a
general appeal. Carlson shrugged his
shoulders.
''If you had your eyesight," he said
almost brutally, you could soon see
that the skipper was in no condition
TO discuss matters, much less be pres
emit"
Here's my eyesight," countered
Lund. ''Mr. Rainey here. Let him see
the skipper and ask him a question or
two?"

shippers concerned, ennyway."
The two men stood facing each
other, Carlson looking evilly at the
giant, whose black glasses warded off
his glance. 1t was wasting looks to
glare at blind man. Equally to sneer.
But the bout between the two was
timed now, and both were casting
aside any veneer of diplomacy. their
enmity maRifesting Itself in the raw.
The issue was growing tense.
Rainey fancied that Carlson was not
entirely sure of his following, and re.
lied upon Lund's indignant refusal OF
terms to back up his plans of getting
rid Of him decisively.

Aud We Talk of Winter Climates.

When in Bisbee we were asked by
a copper miner what we thought of a
certain copper stock, the mine rep
resented being located in another
state. This man was working in
Calumet Il AriZona's Junction shaft,
and for company that owns some
of the best mines in the copper list.
Every day he was shoveling copper
ore yielding at the rate of 200 pounds
ton, and that was entering the mar
ket at about the lowest cost of any
producer. concern with a guaranteed
long future. We advised him to
buy shares in the concern he was
working for, and that he knew to be
sound and good. His reply was:
well, never thought about thatl"
Funny wasn't it2 And that's about
the way II is with this Cloyerland
climate'we are blessed with. Not a
zero day this winter, or any temper
allure approaching it. Not bad
storm. Air pure and bracing. The
summers the very finest the world
knows. And still people want. to
look for another. They go, SILVER,
roam around trying to make them
selves believe they are enjoying it
and all the time wishing they were
back home rollicking with the real
people. Do you know that before
long this is going to be a great winter
resort? It's coming TO this, as peO-

Use Tank for Logging.

The John Schroeder Lumber com
pany of Milwaukee has installed a
tank similar to those used in France
at its camps near lula. 1t will re-
place the time honored method of
hauling logs by teams The tank
weighs 10 tons.
1t is available for summer logging,
where sleighs cannot be used. 1t
goes through snow drifts and over
rough groundIwhere teams and sleighs
cannot do the business. 1t also goes
through small-growth timber, saving
considerable work on the part of
swampers and axe men. The regular
tote-roads will be cleared as in team
logging, but the necessity is far less
for road work.
The tank caterpillar" will tow
trailers on which the logs will be
loaded. but Just how much of load
can be pulled in this way will 5e

Iron Ore Prices For 1921.

Operators of iron ore properties in
the Lake Superior districts are not
hopeful that ore quotations for the
1921 season will be liked for several
weeks yet, owing to the general I'M
certainty in the steel trade.
In the meantime development work
and stockpiling is being conducted on
about a normal basis by the different
companies, as a heavy demand for ore
is looked for as soon as the railroads
place orders to cover their require
ments for rails and cars. 1t is
claimed that large rail orders are
likely to come out early next month,
and ii that business materializes as
expected, the slack at the furnaces
and mills would be practically taken
up. On that assumption the Oliver
Iron Mining company and the indie
pendents are planning upon heavy
shipments of ore to the Lake Erie
docks next season.
The Oliver Iron Mining company is
employing between 1000 and 1000
men at its mines in the Lake Superior
district. An official of that company
states that its plans are for the main
tenance of full crews during the win
ter, No limitations regarding any
reductions in miners wage scales
has been received as yet from the
eastern headquarters of the corpora

among the last to trim wages down.
Mining men are of the opinion that
any reductions that may be made in
ore prices for next season will be
that ore prices were ont of line with
those of finished steel products dur.
ing the war period. and that last year
the higher wages paid miners and
j the advances in rail and vessel freight
rates absorbed almost all the ad-
vance made in ore quotations last

critics claim, therefore, that those
facts should be given some consid-
