Fires Spotted by Forest Air Patrol.


The value of alrplane forest patrol
was fOrcibly demonstrated recently
near Roseburg, Ore. One of the state
foresters in that city had re ~eived re-
ports from the lookOuts in his territory
that there were no fires to be seen. 1t
happened that just at that particular
time he decided to accompany one OF
the army air service pilots engaged In
patrolling the Oregon forests. He had!
not proceeded very far on his aerial'
tourney before he realized that the re-
ports he had received from his look
outs were not as reliable as he was
led to believe. To his great consterna-
ton he discovered that he had no less
than II real fires on his hands which
no one knew anything about. Need
less to say, the state forester Is now
converted to aerial forestry. patrol
for life.

WILLING TO DO HIS SHARE
Jack Dempsey's Really Amusing Story
Of lrishman Made a Hit With
English Hosts.

Jack Dempsey's recent visit to
London was brief one but It af-
forded him time enough to establish
a brilliant reception as an after
dinner speaker. Several London news
papers, in fact, declared him to be
q better after-dinner speaker than
Chauncey Depew or James Russell
Lowell.
Jack made his reputation at q
luncheon given in his honor by Lord
Northcliffe. All England's greatest
statesmen, artists and millionaires
were gathered round the board. When
the young champion was called on for
a toast he rose and said:
81 am a good deal like the Irishman
who attended a dinner where every
guest had to make a speech, sing a
song or tell story. When the Irish.
mans turn came he got up and said
"'I can't make a speech, or sing a
song, or tell a story, but I'll fight any
man in the room.'"

alarm. Look here, sheriff, 1t wasn't
me done II 1t was Gramont-"
There came silence. Not a sound
broke the stiffness of the late after.
noon.
Gramont, listening, lay bewildered
and breathless. Ben Chacherre come
here? Gramont knew nothing of any
tie between Jachin Fell and Cha
cherre; he could only lie in the grass
and wonder at the mans presence.
What "place" was 1t that the sheriff
of Houma had been looking over? And
what was 1t that he, Gramont, was
| supposed to have done?
Confused and wondering, Gramont
waited. And, as he waited, he caught
soft sound from the marshy
ground beside him-a faint "plop" as
though some object had fallen close
| by on the wet grass. At the moment
he paid no heed to this sound, for
| again the uncanny silence had fallen.
Listening, GramOnt fancied that he
caught slow, stealthy footsteps amid
the underground, but derided the

Houma, he knew, was the seat of the
parish or county. This Ben Chacherre
| appeared TO have suddenly and uneX-
pectedly encountered the sheriff, to
his obvious alarm, and the sheriff had
for some reason decided TO arrest
him; so much was clear.
Chacherre had nothing TO do with
the "place"-did that mean the ada
cent property. or the Ledanois farm
In his puzzled bewilderment over this
imbroglio Gramont for the moment
quite forgot the trickle of oil at his
feet.
But now the deep silence became
unnatural and sinister. What had
happened? Surely, Ben Chacherre
had not been arrested and taken away
in such silence, Why had the voices
so abruptly ceased? Vaguely uneasy
startled by the prolOngation of that
intense stiffness, Gramont rose 10 his
feet and peered among the trees.

CHAPTER x.

The voice was strange to Gramont
yet he had a vague. recollection Of
having at some time heard it before.
II was jaunty and impudent voice,
very self-assured-yet 1t bore a
startled and uneasy note, as though
the speaker had just come unaware
upon the man whom he addressed.
"Howdy. sheriff." 1t said. Didn't

"Why, I've been looking over the

other voice, which was dry and grim.

up and apparently deserted. Nearer
at hand, however. he saw other build
ings, and these drew his attention. He
heard the throbbing pound Of a motor
at work, and as there was no power
line along here, the place evidently
had its own electrical plant. He
scrutinized the scene before him ap-
praisingly.
There were two large buildings
here. One seemed to be large barn,
closed, the other was a long, low
shed which was too large to be a
garage. The door of this was open.
and before the opening Gramont saw
three men standing in talk; he recog-
nized none of them. Two of the talk
ers were clad in greasy overalls, and
the third figure showed the flash of a
collar. The sheriff, Ben Chacherre,
and some other man, thought Gra-
mont. He would not have known Cha
cherre had he encountered him face
to face. To him, the man was a name
only.
The mention of his own name by
Chacherre impelled him to go forward
and demand some explanation. Then
ii occurred to him that perhaps he
had made mistake; it would have
been very easy, for he was not certain
that Chacherre had referred TO him.
There could be other Gramonts, or
other men whose name would have
much the same sound in a Creole
mouth.
"Id better attend to my own busi-
ness" thought Gramont, and turned
away. He noticed that the motor had
ceased its work. "Wonder what rich
chap can be down here at his summer
cottage this time of year? May be
only a caretaker, though. I'd better
give all my attention to this oil, and
let other things alone"

There are many who will agree
that he is better than Locke of

The neglecting Of Pfann Of Cor

AYEW YORK, Dec. 26.-When
~ Charles A. Stoneham turns
~ over the presidential reins
to John j. McGraw on January
1, he plans to conduct one of the
biggest stables of thoroughbred
race horses in the country. Ac-
cording to a man very close to
the baseball magnate, Stoneham
hopes to have a string of thor
oughbreds that will vie with
those owned by Harry Sinclair
and Sam Hildredth, Mrs. Payne
Whitney, Harry Payne Whitney
and Commander j. K. L. Ross.
Stoneham's retirement from base
ball undoubtedly was due to his
desire to devote his entire time to
racing. Last season he sold the
Havana race track, but il is said
that he intends to re-purchase this
beautiful course.
At present Stoneham owns two
fine thoroughbreds, Flannel Shirt
and Dry Moon. He also owns many
others of less repute. Yellow Hand.
which broke down a year ago, was
considered one of the best handi-
cap horses in the country, and
Stoneham hopes to get another
horse to take the place of this one
which was the pride of his stable.

FIRST COURT
GAME PROVES
GREAT TREAT
Two Youngsters Expected to
0utclass Holman, Beckman
and Other Stars of Cage.

/" WO youngsters, playing their
first game, on the court at
Il Madison Square Garden
Sunday night, covered themselves
with glory; and held the crowds
spellbound with the wonderful
exhibition, Of basketball they gave,
says Murray Robinson in the New
York Evening Mail.
When they get some much-needed
experience these two coming stars,
Nick Altrock and Al Schacht by
name, win be able to hold their
own with the greatest Of them.
barring none,
Altrock and Schacht have gained
some fame as baseball players, hut
the basketball ability which they
displayed at the Garden had never
been expected Of them even by their
closest friends. 1t is our prediction
that within six months the names
of Altroek and Schacht will be en-
rolled In the basketball hall Of fame
along with, those of Holman. Beck
man and other stars of the cage.
In another game at the Garden
on the same evening the Celtics
defeated the major leaguers of Ed
Holly by the score Of 43 to IS.
The game seemed slow after the
lightning speed OF Altrock and
Schacht. but Nat Holman was at
his best. and 1t was largely through
him that, the Originals came out on
top.
Frank Bruggy starred for the
majors, but 1t seemed that they
made a tactical error in nor fetting
Nick and Al play for them.
