RAINY PASS SERVICE IS
 MOST SATISFACTORY KNOWN

Mrs. D. E. Clough, McGrath postmas- ter, received the following telegram recently from the postmaster at Seat tie:
 "How many trips has Stockman made from Nancy to date and is scheduled time maintained? How does this compare with service via Ruby ? Do you recommend continuance of the Rainy Pass route during next four year period? Give reasons.
 Replying to the above Mrs. Clough wired as follows:
 Most satisfactory service known. Schedule time has been maintained. Ruby service not comparable with that of Rainy Pass which is about eight days shorter than Ruby. Recommend continuance Rainy Pass route."

CAPT. klMBALL TELLS OF
 TRIP OVER RAINY PASS TRAIL
(From Kusko Times)

Charles E. Kimball, who left over the trail from McGrath to the coast, writes to friends here regarding an in cident on the trip out:
 "The trail was rough and we were all glad to reach Nancy. At Susitna the river was still over open in front of town, necessitating going mile up river where it was frozen. I reached the river at five o'clock and when the dogs saw the lights across the river they broke into run and at the jump off into the river got away from me and made direct for the lights. Had no light, as m9y flashlight was on the sled, but went out on the river ice as far as I dared, but could find no trace of the dogs. MT. Saupe was behind me three hours so waited for him and on arriving across the river ofund that my team had not shown up. Sent a white man out and a native with lan' terms but they returned without find ing them.
 At daylight I was out, and there across the river on the edge of the ice was the team Again had to go up riv CT a mile and back down to the dogs Everything was all right, two dogs sleeping in the sleigh and the othe. three curled up close and nothing dis turbed Was mighty glad to find then and they were apparently glad to be piloted across the river for a gooG feed"

She didn't meet Mr.. Fanshawe's

awfully long time bidding me good
night. We'd left Mr.. Fanshawe in
the room where we'd had supper.
He came out Of it just as she was
going into the bedroom. She
hadn't quite closed my door,
though she'd meant to-that's how
/ came to know what happened.
"As she caught sight Of him she
stopped dead where she was stand
ing. She went suddenly so white
that I thought she was going to
faint, and Mr.. Fanshawe put out
his hand as if to catch at her arm.
But she sort of shook herself to-
gether, and drew away from him
i saw her shiver, and l think he
must, have seen it too, because he
jerked his hand back as though
she'd struck at it, and there was a
queer hurt look in his eyes. All
the same, if you know what l
mean, they looked relentless-and

nression struck her, too, but she

her lips were quivering. She
looked scared stiff, and then sud-
denly she spoke, in the oldest,

couldn't breathe easily.

Shave couldn't either. He just put
out his hand again and touched
her sleeve for moment. His face
was as white as hers, and there was
the queerest look about his mouth:

"But of course did. When we
came to see what rooms there
were there was only the big bed
room-a beauty, but quite plain,
and the dressing room out of it
where I'm writing this. The other
two rooms were servants rooms.
Of course could have been quite
comfortable in one of those, but
Mrs. Fanshawe wouldn't hear Of
it. Her manner was so funny
sort of feverish. and \she seemed
to want me to be near-1 must
say Pm a bit puzzled about her,
though not nearly so puzzled as
was. To start with, it's plain as a
pikestaff she doesn't care an atom
for her husband. In fact she
seems almost to dislike him, and
Pm quite certain there was some
thing of malice as well as hospital
ity in her determination to keep
me there. l couldn't help feeling
that she wanted to annoy Mr.. Fan
shave. She seemed angry with
him-and yet half afraid of him
too. It's not easy to describe, but
that's the impression she gave me.
She was very kind to me, in that
cool half Indifferent way of hers

MIR. Fanshawe wasn't gay at all;
but he can be-the jolliest, gayest,
silliest person I've ever met-just
like a tubby, overgrown kid!
"He never took his eyes off his
wife. If it wasn't for the rest of
him I. could quite fall in love with
his eyes. They're dear-kind and
straight, and clear, and ever so

to enjoy talking to me, and

feel quite at home. He left me
for a little while after breakfast.
l suppose he went and saw his
wife, for when he came back he
said that they'd been discussing
me. 1t seems that Mrs. Fanshawe
had said she was willing to launch
me-they both seem to think it
quite out of the question that |
should live alone. Mr.. Fanshawe
says as he's my guardian until I'm
twenty-one my place is under his
roof. And since his wife doesn't
seem to object it is so arranged.

was Mr.. Fanshawe-he's a duck,
absolutely; and she is his wife.
You know we saw in the paper
they were engaged. Her name is
Fancy-it seems to suit her right
down to the ground.
"She was going to go out of the
room just as l woke up, but Mr..
Fanshawe wouldn't let her. And

horribly, and made me sort of hot

"Then Billy-that's the little
man-told me he was Mr.. Fan

Again she paused, pencil poised.
And seated thus she fell to dream
ing. Only it was not Billy Fam
shawe's homely face that held her
mental vision, and there was a
quite unconscious dawning of a
smile that was singularly tender
at the corners of her young mouth.
She was still young enough to
be highly susceptible to the in
fiuence of Romance. And Ro-
nance was in the atmosphere to-
night. There were things-chiefy
concerning her hosts-which she
could not, as yet, understand. But
she was quite certain that she
would comprehend presently. And,
in the meantime, for brief mo-
ment she dismissed them both
from her thoughts, and fell to
dreaming.
She shook herself together as a
clock chimed somewhere, and
gathered her wrapper more closely
about her. There was time for
dreaming, and her letter must be
finished. She took up the narra-
tive after only a moments hesita-
ton:

COALITION IS
ATTACKED BY
"DIE-HARDS''

London, April 5.-(By the Associat-
ed Press)-The motion attacking the
coalition, to be presented in the
house of commons tonight by Sir
William Johnson-Hicks. unionist, has
attracted considerable attention in
political and newspaper circles, but
it is not considered likely to cause
serious trouble for the government.
The motion is, however, clear in
dication of the continuing hostile at
titude of a considerable portion of
the conservative toward the coalition
despite the big parliamentary major
ity by which the governments policy
toward the Genoa conference was en-
dorsed on Monday The government
has decided to treat the motion seri-
ously and the whips are seeking to
insure a full attendance of the gov
eminent supporters.
II is not certain whether a division
will be taken, it being thought most
probable that the motion will be
talked out. Even if there is a vote
it is believed the Orchards" cannot
muster any greater strength than on
former occasions.
