she always drove herself, and, tell

she drove her car directly to the city.
Betty always had shopping to do.
Toms ample bank account did not
prevent her from being an inveterate
bargain hunter, and Katherine very
easily found the means to leave her
| friend long enough TO drive past the
address that the telephone operator
had given her the preceding night.
She sought merely to locate it be
cause it happened to be IN street
with which she was unfamiliar

She knew the fringes of that neigh
borhood we'll enough, for she had, In
the police days, lived in West Elev-

Of Greenwich ViIlage-and to a stran
ger the locality is something of a
labyrinth-were unknown to her.
/ She found the address readily enough,
and drove on past it without stop

was plain enough that Roberts" did
not live although it was not so
plain how the woman could make use

But there was a telephone of tn

and it's number was the one she ha

Katherine, having returned to he

Roberta lives in the neighboI

The Lady of the Night Wind
THIS STARTS THE STORY.

A weekend party is being
held at the home Of Katherine
Mand Bingham Harvard. Among
the guests are Clancy, Archer,
Demming, Sears, an done Conrad
Belknap. Katherine discovers
Belknap cheating at a game of
cards. She demands that he leave
her house Immediately. He scorn-
fully refuses to do so. Katherine
Is about to tell her husband of
the occurrence, but hesitates ow-
rig to a peculiar influence which
Belknap seems to exert over
her. Convinced of his decep-
ton, however, and suspicious of
MS actions, she is all the more
determined to ferret out his real
Identity. Katherine has former
iy had an exverience as a police
headquarters detective under the
name of Lady Kate of the Po-
lice. She intercepts telephone
call of Belknap's and discover
the name and address of a wo-
man confederate whom he calls
Berta. She learns that Belknap
has set afOot some scheme. Re-
alizing that he is suspected by
Katherine, Belknap threatens to
expose the fact that Katherine's
brother, ROderick Maxwiiton, who
is believed by his parents to be
dead, faces a term in prison.
Bingham Harvard, who once
bore the alias 1.-The Night Wind,
becomes suspicious of Belknap's
and Katherine's attitude toward
him. Katherine's parents arrive
at her home.
AND HERE IT CONTINUES.

PARENT TEACHERS
CIRCLE MEETING
(From Fridays Daily

A very interesting meeting was
held by the Parent-Teachers' circle
at the Hawthorne school yesterday
afternoon. At the business session
plans were outlined for the Junior
high school entertainment which will
be given in the near future. This
will be a very elaborate affair given
to raise money for the piano pur-
chased by that school last year.
The program opened with an In
strumental solo by Miss Carson, fol
lowed by an instructive talk on the
care OF the teeth and the dangers
arising from neglect, ably given by
DR.. W. E. Buchanan.
Superintendent Briscoe spoke of
the great need of new buildings The
state law compels every child to take
20 minutes physical training each
day. At Hawthorne and Junior high
schools this has to be given out of
doors, and in stormy weather this
makes a very difficult situation.
Consequently a gymnasium is need
ed at each of these schools. A model
cottage belonging to the school dis
trict Is also greatly needed. In Or
der to secure funds towards such
building, 1t was suggested that Par
ent-Teachers' members create SEN
timent towards the giving Of cash
gifts to our schools Persons inter-
ested along these lines might give
any sum, no amount being too small
or too large. Others might like to
leave legacies In their wills. Uni
versities all over the United States
are receiving many gifts in this man
ner, why not apply this method to
our local schools? What more last
ing memorial could one leave than
a building named for the giver?
The program closed with an in
strumental solo by Miss Atkinson.

Deal Now PENDING
For Mining Claim

A deal is now pending for the sale
of mining claim located some one
or two miles west of Ashland,
whereby property which has shown
good indications in a mining way
will be taken In charge by capitalists
who will start to work the prospect
in the very near future II the deal
is successfully closed.
A mining engineer has made an
examination of the property and has
expressed the opinion that this prop
erty is capable of yielding one car
load of good ore every two weeks.
This would employ 60 or 70 men con-
tinuously.
The men who are backing this
proposition are not local men, and it
is not possible to give their names
at the present time.
In connection with the foregoing,
the following statement taken from
the Oregon Mining Journal Of May
5. 1906, may be of interest to people
in the mining industry:
Last week one of the leading geo.
loglsts and mining experts Of the
United States was visiting Ashland,
exploring the surrounding mineral
country and examining some mining
claims in the interest Of one Of the
largest mining capitalists Of Amer
lea.
'In looking over the many mineral
specimens In the mining office Of c.
w. Evans, he remarked that the
mineral showing. formations and In.
dicatlons in the vicinity Of Ashland
was one OF the best in the west and
predicted mining operation on a scale
as large as any in the country would
eventually be conducted in the noun
tains about Ashland. He requested
his name not be mentioned as II
would hamper him In his work. He
further stated that In the Tonopah
Goldfield, ETC., mining districts. the
values were principally found on the
surface. owing to the formation OF
the country rock OF that section
but around Ashland the greater val
