gan sounding last night, and that at
first 1t sounded for only two lives; It's
kept on beating but still is beating
only for four. There were thirty-nine
on the ferry-seven passengers and
thirty-two crew. Twelve have been
saved now; so until the Drum raises
the beats to twenty-seven there is still
chance that someone will be saved"
Constance watched him with wonder
at the effect of what she had told.
The news of the Drum had shaken
him from his triumph over Alan and
Uncle Benny and over her. 1t had
shaken him so that, though he re-
manned with her some minutes more.
he seemed to have forgotten the pur-
pose of reconciliation with her which
had brought him to the house.
She dined, or made pretence Of din
ing, with her mother at seven. Her
mothers voice went on and on about
trifles, and Constance did not try to
pay attention. Her thought was fol-
lowing Henry with ever-sharpening ap-
prehension. She called the office in
mid-evening; 1t would be open, she
knew, for messages regarding Uncle
Benny and Alan would be expected
there. A clerk answered; no other
news had been received; she then
asked Henry's whereabouts.
"Mr. Spearman went north late this
afternoon, Miss Sheriff." the clerk
Informed her.
north! Where's"
"We are to communicate with him
this evening to Grand Rapids; after
that, to Petoskey."
Constance could hear her own heart
beat. Why had Henry gone, she won
dered; not, certainly, to aid the
search. He had gone to-hinder it?

Henry fearedr Alan had described
the man to her; that description had
not had meaning for her before; but
now remembering that description she
could think of Henry as the only one
who could have been in that house
Henry had fought with Alan there
Afterwards, when Alan had been at
tackled upon the street. had Henry
anything to do with that?
Henry had lied 20 her about being
in Duluth the night he had fought
with Alan; he had not told her the
true cause of his quarrels with Uncle
Benny he had wished her to believe
that Uncle Benny was dead when the
wedding ring and watch came to her
the watch which had been Captain
S.afford's Of the Miwaka Henry had
urged her to marry him at once. Was
that because he wished the security
that her father-and she-must give
her husband when they learned the
revelation which Alan or Uncle Ben
nX might bring?
At Petoskey she went from the train
directly to the telegraph office. II
Henry was in Petoskey, they would
know at that Office where he could be
found; he would be keeping In touch
with them.
Mr.. Spearman, the operator said, had
been at the Office early in the day;
there had been no message for him;
he had left instructions that any
which came were to be forwarded 20
him through the men who, under his
direction, were patrolling the shore
for twenty miles north of Little Trav-
erse, watching for boats.
Constance crossed the frozen edges
of the bay by sledge to Harbor
Point. Her distrust now had deep
ened to terrible dread. She had not
been able before this to form any def
mite idea Of how Henry could threat

en- Alan and Uncle Benny; she had
imagined only vague interference and
obstruction Of the search for them;
she had not foreseen that he could so
readily assume charge Of the search
and direct, or misdirect, t..
At the Point she discharged the
sledge and went on foot to the house
the Sheriff. cottage during the winter.
Getting the keys from him, she let
herself into the house. Going to her
room, she unpacked heavy sweater
and wooden cap and short fur coat
winter things which were left there
against use when they opened the
house sometimes out of season-and
put them on. Then she went down
and found her snowshoes. Stopping
at the telephone, she called long dis
lance and asked them to locate Mr..
Sheriff., If possible, and instruct him
to move south along the shore with
whomever he had with him. She went
out then, and fastened on her snow
shoes.
Constance hurried westward and
then north, following the bend of the
shore. The figure of a man-one of
the shore patrols-pacing the ice hum
mockS Of the beach and staring out
upon the lake, appeared vaguely in
the dusk when she had gone about
two miles. She came, three quarters
Of mile farther on, to a second man |;
about an equal distance beyond she
found a third, but passed him and
went on.
Her legs ached now with the unac-
customed travel upon snowshoes; the
cold, which had been only a piercing
chill at first, was stopping feeling, al
most stopping thought. She was hor-
rified to find that she was growing
weak and that her senses were becom-
ing confused. She had come, In all,
perhaps eight miles; and she was
playing out" She descended to the
beach again and went on; her gaze
continued to search the lake, but now,
wherever there was a break in the
bluffs, she looked toward the shore as
we'll. At the third of these breaks,
the yellow glow Of window appeared,
marking house in a hollow between
snow-shrouded hills. She turned ca
gerly that way; she could go only
very slowly now. There was no path;
ut least, If there was, the snow drifts
hid it.
She struggled to the door and
knocked upon 1t, and receiving no re-
ply, she beat upon it with both fists.

1.-The steamer Number 25 rammed
proved to have been the Benton" he
told her. '"The men are all from her.
They had abandoned her in the small
boats and the Solwerk picked them
up before the ferry found her."
He was not asking her to congratu-
late him upon the relief he felt; he
had not so far forgotten himself as
that. But 1t was plain to her that he
was congratulating himself; 1t had
been fear that he was feeling before
fear, she was beginning to understand,
that those on the ferry had been saved.
Horror and amazement flowed in up
on her with her realization of this In
the man she had promised to marry.
For an instant she stared at him, all
her body tense; then, as she turned
and went out, he followed her, calling
her name. But, seeing the seamen in
the larger office, he stopped, and she
understood he was not willing to urge
himself upon her in their presence.
I'm willing to go home now, mother,
If you WISH" she said steadily.
When they had gone down to the
street and were in the car, Constance
leaned back, closing her eyes; she
feared her mother might wish to talk
with her.
Toward three o'clock, the Office
called her, but only to report that they
had heard from Mr.. Sheriff.. He had
wired that he was going on from Man
istique and would cross the straits from
st. Ignace messages from him were to
be addressed to Petoskey. There was
were still continuing the search for
survivors, because the Indian Drum,
which had been beating, was beating
short" causing the superstitious to
be certain that, though some of the
men from Number % were lost, some
yet survived.
Constance thrilled as she heard
that. She did not believe in the Drum !;
at least she had never thought she
had really believed in it; she had only
stirred to the idea of it's being true
But if the Drum was beating, she was
glad it was beating short. 1t was
serving, at least, to keep the lake men
more alert.
A little later, as Constance stood at
the window, gazing out at the snow
upon the lake, she drew back suddenly
out of sight from the street, as she
saw Henry's roadster appear out of
the storm and stop before the house.
She waited In the room where she
was. The strain he was under had
not lessened, she could see; or rather,
If she could rust her feeling at sight
Of him, 1t had lessened only slightly,
and at the same time his power to
resist 1t had been lessening too.

ME-" he said, $50 came straight out.
The Richardson's picked up one Of
the boats of the ferry"
"Uncle Benny and Alan Conrad
were not in it." she returned; the tri-
umph she had seen in him had told
her that.
"No; it was the first boat put off by
the ferry, with the passengers and
cabin maid and some injured men of
the crew."
"Were they - alive" her voice
hushed tensely.
Eyes; that is, they were able to re-
vive them all; but 1t didn't seem pos
sible to the Richardson's officers that

telephone. Henry Strengthened, lis
tened; as the voice stopped, his great,
finely-shaped head sank between his
shoulders; he fumbled in his pocket
for cigar, and his big hands shook
as he lighted 1t, without word Of ex-
! cuse to her. A strange feeling came to
her that he felt what he dreaded ap-
preaching and was no longer conscious
of her presence.
She heard footsteps In the larger
room coming toward the Office door.
Henry was in suspense. A rap came
at the door. He whitened, and wet his
lips.
Come in," ne summoned.
One of the Office girls entered, bring
ing white page of paper with three
or four lines of purple typewriting up
on IL which Constance recognized must
be transcript of a message just re-
ceived.
She started forward at sight of 1t,
forgetting everything else; but he took
the paper as though he did not know
she was there. He merely held it un-
til the girl had gone out; even then
he stood folding and unfolding it, and
his eyes did not drop to the sheet.
The girl had said nothing at all but,
having seen her, Constance was
athrill; the girl had not been a bearer
Of bad news, that was sure; she
brought some sort of good news! Con-
stance, certain Of it, moved nearer to
Henry to read what he held. He looked
down and read.
"What Is 1t, Henry?"
His muscular reaction, as he read,
had drawn the sheet away from her;
he recovered himself almost instantly
and gave the paper to her.
g :35 a. M, Manitowoc, Wis.," she
read. "The schooner Anna S. Solwerk
has been sighted making for this port
She is not close enough for communi-
cation, but two lifeboats, additional to
her own, can be plainly made out. 1t
is believed that she must have picked
up survivors of No. %. She carries
no wireless, so is unable to report.
Tugs are going to her.
1.-TWO lifeboats !" Constance cried.
"That could mean that they all are
saved or nearly all; doesn't it, Hen
ry; doesn't IT'D"
He had read some other significance
in 1t, she thought, or, from his greater
understanding Of conditions In the
storm, he had been able to hold no
hope from what had been reported.
That was the only way she could ex-
plain to herself as he replied to her;
that the word meant to him that men
were saved and that therefore 1t was
disnaying to him, could not come to
her at once. When 1t came now, 1t
went over her first only In the flash
of incredulous question.
The telephone buzzer under his desk
sounded; she drew close as he took
up his receiver.
"Manitowoc?" he said. ST want to

As one business man expressed
it, the administration cannot con-
stantly imagine the European prob
lem is political but must sooner or
later realize that it is economic and
that it affects American prosperity.
The view is repeatedly expressed
that when a problem of critical i'm
portance faces business men they
do not write letters to each other
but sit down and talk it over.
sMust Stabilize Europe"
Business men are essentially
Traders said one official of the
chamber They make progress by
mutual concession. They at least
tell each other what they are willing
to do and that's what our govern
ment must do. 1t must find basis
for economic cooperation and tell
Europe what it is willing to do.
Otherwise we shall get nowhere.
It's all very well to say we shall
wait till Europe is stable but we
must show what we are ready to do
so we can help stabilize Europe.
There is a small group of dele
gates here who do not share these
views-they believe in letting
things drift and in waiting for the
political parties to develop their
policies. They think business can
make progress through high tariffs
and the lowest wages possible.
Their eyes are focused on policy
of economic isolation. They are in
different to the talk of profit in for
eign trade.
Approve Hughes, Hoover.
Apart from this small group,
