Bright as a dollar, Elsie Danvers
had great idea in her busy little
head. She was only nine years OLD,
but she knew more than most chill
dren Of twelve, and thought more
deeply and more to purpose than
some people of twenty.
Under her arm she carried Il small
cardboard box, neatly done up III
wrapping paper and carefully tied. To
her way of thinking II was very i'm
portant belonging. When she came
to the neat little cottage known as
the Hyde home, she found its spinster
occupant, Miss Susan, resting on u
rustic bench after her exertlons' In
trimming the rose bushes.
Miss Hyde liked the Danvers people
greatly, and little Elsie particularly
well.
Miss Hyde received her little visitor

she said, "and nobody shall know
about 1t except you and l."
Elsie parted with her precious pack
age with supreme confidence In her
good friend. Miss Hyde took 1t down
to the postoflice and mailed 1t. She
did some thinking on the way. She
had heard of stern, hard-hearted old
John Marsh. Mrs. Nellie Danvers, the
orphan child Of brother, had been
adopted by the old man. Later he
also took charge Of Eunlce Ross,
distant relative. Mr.. Marsh did not
seem to dsapprove of his wards mar
rage to Albert Danvers. Yet while
they were off on their honeymoon he
had written to them forbidding them
to ever approach him again in any
way.
Nellie had written, pleading for an
explanation. 1t was coldly refused
The next thing she heard was that
her uncle was arranging to will his
fortune to Eunice. Then she was
shocked to hear of the death of the

had shut himself In to a miserly, cheer
less existence.
O"John Marsh, Rushville," received
the parcels post package two days
later. He carried 1t into the house,
opened it, and read the tiny childish
note II contained. His eyes glared.
He gritted his teeth as he gave the
squeaky doll fling through a door
way. into the room Eunice had once
occupied.
All the same he did not sleep very
well that night.
A squeak, clear and distinct, sound
ed through the house. Noiselessly the
old man arose from his bed ana
reached the sitting room. In the one
beyond. where he had flung the doll,
was a light. He seized gun he kept
always loaded, crept to the open door
way, and made out two masked men
ransacking desk that had not been
opened since Eunice died.
Bang!-John Marsh fired and the
burglars disappeared.
The old man found bag left be-
hind by the burglars filled with money
and papers secured from his own
wardrobe. Then, as he began to PICK
ND the papers strewn about from the
desk Eunice had owned, he made a
startling discovery.
What had estranged him from Nell

Big Log Drive Is
Made Under Guard

Montague, Me. Aug. 30-With the
driving of the last of the 1000 cords
of pulp wood out of the mill pond
and over the dam at the International
Paper Company's mill here, on it's
way down river. the situation here is
somewhat relieved, although the
guards will remain to protect the
dam for the present.
This pulp wood has been sold to
the mills at Orono. as there was but
little prospect of using it or taking it
out of the water here, where 10000
cords, or two years supply. is already
piled up. The mill here has been
shut down since the beginning of the
strike on May list. Many of the
strikers have left town.
Some attempts have been made to
menace the crew of about so river
men at work here, but without suf-
ficient force. An attempt was made
to blow up the dam last week by
placing a charge of dynamite in the
waste gates. Considerable damage
was done to the gates. but the quick
action of Sheriff Fernandez in swear
ing in a posse of deputies to guard
the dam night and day, prevented
serious trouble.
The deputies have established a
camp at the dam with Sheriff Fer
nandez in personal charge About Is
men are on duty at night. and half a
dozen or so by day.
