Hymans Says Opium Is Find

GENEVA. May Is (Associated Press)
The United States is one OF the larg-
est morphine manufacturing and ex-
porting countries In the world, Paul Hy-
mans, chairman of the Council of the
League of Nations commission on
opium, told the members of his COM
mission this afternoon. M. Hymans was
discussing recommendations made at
the recent meeting of the Opium
Leagues consultative commission on
opium traffic.
The council of the league unanimously
approved the report Of the recent meet
ing. at which Mrs. Wright of Washing
ton. ID. c.. represented the United States.
The report. which has already been pub
lished. calls for series OF measures
for control of the traffic and later for
limitation OF production of opium to
needs for medical purposes.
M. Hymans declared opium was flnd-
ing it's way to natives OF countries
where the drug heretofore was un-
known. He said the commission was de-

Winter Overcoats Cut
Capacity of Cars 1920

THE manager of a Herald
square clothing store has a
bent for statistics. He also is
faithful reader of news of the
overcrowded subways. He wrote
recently to the Interborough Rapid
Transit Company. saying that he
had found by actual test that 100
winter overcoats might be COM
pressed into a bulk twelve feet
thick.
Then his deduction ran like this:
II the Interborough cars at times
last winter carried loading of 220
per cent, as was proven in the
Transit Commissions service in
vestigation, the discarding of win
ter overcoats gave an added ca
pacity of 10 per cent. in each car.
Therefore. IL 220 could be jammed
into a single car wearing winter
wraps. it ought now to be made to
accommodate 242 passengers.
The same authority is said to be
figuring upon the added capacity
per car. that may be gained after
June j, when most persons may be
supposed to have taken to lighter
underwear.

CHAPTER XIX.
Angels, Desert and Urban.

Our stop-over in Angels, Friend
Beasley's and mine, was of the short
est. Our business with Father VIII
liam Dublin was the merest travesty
upon a trial at law, and was speedily
concluded.
Since there would be no passenger
train until afternoon, Beasley and 1
resumed our places in the freight's
caboose, and in due time we're set
down in Brewster, the breezy little
metropolis of Timanyoni Park.
Here my captor-and friend-ap-
peared to be very much at home. He
took me to the best hotel, where he
was greeted with affectionate CANA
raderie by a clerk who wore O dia-
mond big enough to serve for loco
motive headlight shook hands with,
and introduced me to, a number of
gentlemen in the lobby, and presently
gave me orders to go up to our rooms
and "take a wash" preparatory to
meeting certain friend of his at
luncheon the meeting contingent upon
his being able to ''round up" the friend
in time for the feast.
1t still wanted a half-hour Of the
appointed luncheon time when l de-
scended to the lobby. A little before
one o'clock Beasley came in with a
middle-aged man who looked as If he
might have been the retired manager
of a Wild West show; not long-haired,
or anything like that, but with the
cool eye and bronzed, weather-beaten
face of one who lived under house
roofs only when circumstances forced
him to. A moment later j was shak-
ing hands with Mr.. William Starbuck,
mine owner, ranchman, director in
the Brewster National bank, president
of the Brewster Commercial club and
the prime mover in lot of other civic
activities too numerous to mention.
1 may pass lightly over the events
of the three days following; days in
which Mr.. William Starbuck, who
seemed to be known to all the old
timers in Brewster as "Billy," and to
the younger generation as "Uncle Bill
w." labored untiringly in my behalf;
procured me the necessary working
credit at the Brewster National,
helped me In the telegraphic ordering
of new machinery. helped Beasley to
rustic up a small army Of mechanics
to go ahead of US to the Cinnabar,
and last, but not least, made my peace
with the railroad company In the mat
ter of the stolen and smashed inspec-
ton car; this being thing which he
was easily able to do because he was
the brother-in-law, once removed, Of
the railroad company's vice president
and general manager.
On our last day in Brewster, and as
a parting favor. l asked Starbuck how
I should proceed in regard to quash-

go on to explain how the quick wit of
a girl who now hated me had saved
that deed from being a mere scrap of
waste paper. Not that l knew how
she had done it-but the tangible fact
was safely in my pocket.
Fifteen minutes after this break
fast table talk I was bidding a tenn
porary good-by TO the wreck on the
Cinnabar ledge, and was about to take
the road to Atropia with Beasley ;
both of us intent upon catching way

railroad station-this either with or
without Jeanie's consent; / didn't

at the pony's heels. But the blue-eyed

room. and / thought she wasn't going

At the final moment, however, after
Beasley had already steered his nag
across the dump head, and / was
about to climb into my saddle, she
came to the cabin door, and was both
curiously embarrassed and bit
breathless.

Beasley riding a borrowed horse, and
l the calico pony, which Daddy Hiram
had sent down to the station by one of
| the newly imported workmen.
Just as we were leaving the rail-
road station Buddy Fuller, the opera
| tor, ran out to hand me a telegram.
| Since 1t was too dark to see to read 1t,
and 1 supposed, naturally, that it was
nothing more important than a bid
from some machinery firm anxious to
supply our needs, 1 thought 1t might
wait, stuck 1t into my pocket-and
promptly forgot it.
Our talk, as we rode together up the
now familiar trail, was chiefly of bust
ness; the business of reopening the
mine; and 1t was not until we were
nearing our destination that the ex-
marshal said:

"Well, now, why not?"

somebody that wouldn't prosecute"
"Not HI Twombly; he'd never asst
you to do anything like that"
mo; not Daddy Hiram"
He didn't press the matter any
further, and we rode on In silence. AS
we approached the neighborhood of
the mine, evidences of the forthputting
activities began to manifest them
selves.
Daddy Hiram met us at the door Of
his newly repaired cabin across the
dump head and insisted upon taking
care of the horses. Beasley and l
washed up at the outdoor, bench-and-
basin lavatory; and when we went In,
Jeanne had supper ready for us.
She didn't sit at table with us
from which l argued that she and her
father had already eaten-and
thought she purposely avoided me;
avoided meeting my eye, at least.
didn't wonder at 1t. Her position, as
had 1t figured out, was rather awk-
wardly anomalous. BY this time,
had fully convinced myself that she
was In love with Fullerton, and was
probably engaged to be married to
him; and that It was only her native
honesty that had driven her to take
sides against him In the struggle for
the Cinnabar, prompting her 10 do the
one thing which had knocked his ne
farlous scheme on the head-namely,
the recording of my deed.
Knowing nothing but hard work,
Daddy Hiram was running the deep
well pumps himself or rather, taking
the night shift on them; and about ten
o'clock. just as had made up my mind |
to go to bed and let the repairing ac-
tivlties take care Of themselves, saw |
Jeanie going over to the boiler shed |
with pot of freshly made coffee for |
her father. Here was my chance,
thought; so waited and cornered her
