der the wetling from the water jet,
that had set me thinking.
A spinning twirl of the engine
throttle valve set our machinery in
motion, and when ] had thrown the
pump clutch in, we crOuched again in
the leaSt-wet corner TO watch the index
of the tell-tale steamgauge connected
into the supply pipe.
We knew that the centrifugalS were
voraciOuS Steam-eaters; we had proved
that when we were running them in
the week-long test. | had notion
that maybe BullertOn had fred only

run his shOwer-bath machine, and the
result speedily confirmed this assump.
tion. In few minutes the steam
pressure had dropped TO a point at
which II would no longer drive any of
the pumps, either ours or the one out
side, and the window cataract stopped.
"This will be only breathing
space" pr0phesied, getting up to
squeeze some of the superfluOus water
out of my clothes. "BullertOn will do
one of two things: fire the other two
boilers, or discOnnect this steam pipe
Of ours"
"ltcckon soW said Daddy.
you'll see in minute or So"
. The attack began even while we
were speaking, sundry hammerlngs
and twistngs that shook the pipe over
head proving that the besiegers were
going to stop the leak by cutting us
or from the boilers.
Take your whirl at the inventions,
this time. Daddy" urged. "When
they get this supply pipe cut out, we'll
be in for another ducSlng--and one
that we can't stop"
Daddy was shaking his head and
wringlng the moisture-and mud--Out

II was little after noon, while we
were sQuatting on the floor to eat
another meal warmed up over the chip
tire, that we found out the answer
to all the guesses and learned what
the mechanical noises of the night
and forenoon had been leading up to.
One OF the left-overs from the work
ing period Of the mine was gOOd-sized
steam force pump which, we took IL,
had once been installed on one OF the
lower mine levels and had been hOisted
out Of the shaft ahead of the advanc-
ing water flood and put under shelter
in n corner of the boiler shed. As
| was passing my tin cup for more or
Daddy's excellent coffee the rattle and
clank of a pump began to make itself
heard. together with the coughing
chug-chug Of the steam exhaust there
from.
That's that low-level pumpv l eX-
claimed. "They must have connected
II up with the boil"
Whoosh! that was just as far as /
got. In the middle midst of the word
boilers a two inch Jet of muddy wa
ter came curving up through one OF
the window openings to arch over and
fall, splash, all over us as we sat
munchhg our dinner, Everlnstingly
ruined the dinner. put out the fire, up
set the coffee pot, and made drowned
rats OF both uf us In less time than II
takes Ia tell it-much less.
So much for that. OF course, we ran
and ducked and lodged, like the
drowned rats | speak Of hunting for
a hole. But now BullcrtOn's devilish
engineering ingenuity came into play.
by some means as yet unknown TO us,
he had cOntrived movable nozzle to
his Squirt-gun, ana in another minute
there wasn't a single dry spot left in.
that shafthousr. venture to say that
Daddy and and the dog ran full
mile trying TO get out of range Of that
demoniacHl sozzle.machine, but there
wasn't a corner Of the place that II
couldn't, and didn't, reach.
During the night the Scoundrels had
laid a pipe line from the pump in the
boiler shed alongside of our prison
fortress; this with an upright eXten-
sion on The business end of it.. At the
top OF the sandplpe stem there was an
elbow with a short joint of pips
screwed into II to point our way; and
on the end of this nozzle there was
piece Of rubber hose. Under the ierky
impulses of the pump strokes this feX-
lble extension of the nozzle Topped
up and down and around and side
wise, like the nose of n patent lawn
sprinkler; and there you are-Or there
we were.
"Gosh-to-Solomon!" !" Daddy splut-
tered, Eve amt on the water wagon--

 De1npsey-Wills
 Battle In Ring
By DAVIS J. WALSH, '. N. z. Shorts Editor.

New York June 12-Having watched the New York State Boxing Johnny KfFoane and Johnny Wilson to defend their titles against the re- spective challenges of Johnny Dun dee and Harry Greb, the enterprfs- ing Paddy Mullens is about to request the Commission to take similar a,c- ton on behalf of Harry Wills and his challenge to Jack Dempsey.
 MT. MullenS thus shows a pardon able anxiety to discover whether what is sauce for the goose is asafedda for the gander>
 He will post certified check with the Commission as evidence of good faith and will then sit back to await results If the Commission Is at all consistent it will immediately demand that Dempsey accept the challenge within a. specified period or have his cham pionship declared automatically vacated.
 This was the official edict in the Gren and Wilson, but the two chal- lengers referred to are pleased to claim the Caucasian race as their own. while Wills is brunette of neither welcomed nor allowed in New York rings although there is no law against them, The Commission merely turns a sour eye on the prop and no promoter has yet been suffi- ciently fooIhardy to brave official displeasure on this score,
 Yet, without 8 law to back 1t up, it is difficult to see how the Com mission can Ignore a def from Wills when it has already gone on rec ord as championing the cause of Dundee and Greb and by so doing has tactily ranged itself behind all boxers whose challenges fall upon a deaf ear that champions develop with amazing facility as soon as they fall heir to 8 title
 That Muuensf proposed action will be necessary now seems assured for 1t is evident that Dempsey has no in tenion of meeting the black with any degree of haste.

Admirers who have got into the way of thinking of her always as flashing Bebe Daniels, get @ surprise when they see her in Nancy From Nowhere,'' which is showing this week at the Empire theatre, for she has in this picture an entirely new kind of role from anything she has done heretofore.
 All the we'll known Daniels mis- chief and sparkle are subdued and the good little bad girP' of the screen appears as a shy and wistful orphan, oppressed and repressed by a pair of Flow lives.'' She is none the less appealing, however. and her dark beauty is not marred by her Taggedy cos tu mes.
