AS HE PLEADS

Washington, July 16.-Slowly dying
from an incurable malady Jan Zoz-
nowski, a we'll known Polish writer,
repeatedly begged friends and at
tendants at sanitarium to put an

sight Of his agony that she could
not resist his pitiable pleadings.
She shot him in the head and he is

T0FARM LABOR
Application Made to l. C.. c.
For Special Rate From
Twin Cities and Sioux City
EFFECTIVE ON JULY %
Same Rate as Last Year
Granted to Aid in Providing
Cheaper Harvest Help

st. Paul, July 16.-Application
to publish rates on less than statu-
tory notice, naming low one-way
fares from St. Paul, Minneapolis,
Duluth, Superior and Sioux City,
Iowa, to the harvest fields of Min
nesota and North Dakota have been
made to the Interstate Commerce
Commission, according to a joint
announcement made today by the
Great Northern, Northern Pacific
and 500 lines.
The effective date of the new
rate, which will be $500 from the
Twin Cities and the head of the
lakes and $3.50 from Sioux City,
depends on the answer from the
commission. The Northern Pacific
announced it expected the rate to
be effective July %.
URGES COOPERATION
Cooperation will be urged to the
fullest extent throughout the state
by Governor Nestos TO provide am
pie harvest labor at reasonable ex-
pense to farmers. Granting Of the
rate of SIS from the Twin Cities and
Duluth for groups of five, by rail-
roads, and rate of $3.50 by the
Great Northern from Sioux, will
prove of great value to the farmers
of the state if the expected big crop
materializes, the Governor believes
A better class of harvest laborers
than usual may come into the state
this year, in the opinion of many
here, because many workers in the
middle western states, temporarily
out of jobs, will seek employment
here. Gov. Nestos is planning to
tie up the harvest labor movement
with an immigration movement for
the benefit of the state.
In letters sent to every county
seat, the Governor said: ITO make
it of greatest value to the state
(the special railroad rate) there
should be an organized and syste-
matte campaign in every community
to have the business men and farm
ers write to their friends i'm. southern
; Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, etc, and
secure their aid in directing first
class workers into North Dakota
either by automobile or by taking
advantage of the low railroad fare.
ut seems to me, that this would
also be a golden opportunity to
show the renters and farmers sons
from those states what variety of
splendid crops We can raise on our
low priced lands in North Dakota
and by so doing make it strong
immigration movement also. We can
easily prove that our farm land at
present low prices is the best in
vestment in the world. The chance
to see the country, to examine our
lands, and at the same time to earn
good money, ought to appeal to these
noonle -

Chicago, July 16.-Assertions
that great stretches of the Cana

wheat sky-rocketing today. The
market closed excited, and as much
as S 3-8c a bushel higher than
yesterday, with September delivery
at $l.26 7-8 to $1.27, a new high
record for the season.
The sharpest advance in prices
today took place during the last Is
minutes of trading and mounted to
two cents a bushel in that brief
period.
The late advance in wheat prices
was further stimulated by dispatch
es from Winnipeg to one of the
largest grain houses here declar-
ing that $1.5O a bushel was in
eight for wheat. The dispatch in
cluded information that thousands
of acres in the Goose Lakes coun-
try were being plowed under and
that in central and northern Sas-
katchewan so percent of the crop
was beyond recovery even with the
help of immediate rain.
One Of the additional disquieting
factors that developed was increas-
ing complaint of extensive dry wea-
ther in the Dakotas and Minnesota.
Corn also made a sensational ad-
vance, a 1-2c a bushel in some
cases. Adverse crop reports from
Indiana and Ohio received special
attention and fresh top record
prices were established for the new
crop month, May delivery touch

decreased, and autumn was dying
in the land.
So one evening Pete called an in
formal council of war. "I'll admit
we've got to do something. and we
can't wait very much longer" he
began "We've given the Warrior
time in plenty to get back, with
some days to spare to take care OF
breakdowns we haven't as
much as had word of her. 1t may
be she'll get back yet-delayed
through some more or less serious

don't see how we dare wait much
longer for her to come"
Agreed" Dorothy replied
promptly. "What do you suggest
we do about it?"
Lets sum it all up first, and
sec where we are. Let's assure
the worst, that the Warrior has
gone down, and that she went down
Ibefore she got word to anybody to
come and rescue us. Sooner or
later Bradford and De Long, down
in Seattle, will learn that the War
rior did not come into Seward, but
she wasn't. expected at any definite
time, if she was expected at ALL
and it may be months before a
search party is sent out-a half
hearted search party at that, be-
cause they will naturally think we
went down with the Warrior. AT
ter the same long period of weeks
and months, some of your relatives
and friends down below will be-
come anxious about you and dis
patch some search parties; bus
they will likely become discour-
aged by the same news-that we

rank US among the missing" Pete
did not add that this business Of
being included with the missing
was an old game to him.
But say they do come and
search this shore: at least, it will
be matter of weeks and months.
And weeks and months in this eli
mate, and winter and with little
food, is deadly deal, There re-
mains the dory, and the difficut
more or less dangerous trip down
the coast to some settlement.
"0f course, it's the only possible
plan now; you'll agree with me in
that. But our food supplies are
so low it wouldn't be safe
to attempt the trip for the five Of
US.
"We've got to get busy quick.

scared; they say they can smell
winter, that it's going to set in
early. Now this is my plan.

At that instant Pete knew surely
that he had only to hold his fire,
and Ivan would be torn to pieces
before his eyes.
No blame could be laid on him
self for failure to stop the charge.
He had but one shell in his gun,
and he might have sore need of
that in his own defense. From the
position in which he stood it was
a doubtful shot at best, not because
he could not hit the great form of
the bear, but because likely he
could not reach her vitals. Ivan
was firing desperately with mis-
pistol, and maddened by many
minor wounds, it was wholly prob
able that the bear would turn to-
ward Pete after she had struck
her first enemy to the EARTH In
that case the guides only hope
would lie in saving his one she'll
for shot between the glowing
eyes or into the throat at close
range; there would be no time or
or chance to procure other shells
from his pocket and reload his
rifle.
Yet at the same instant that this

evidently neutral Perhaps Mrs.
Newhall would not want to be left

said simply.
Con the contrary, I'm perfectly
willing TO do what's best for all
concerned" Dorothy remarked.
I'm sure it would be best. You

comfort, to dry the venison and TO

knowledge came to him, his love
for Dorothy commanded him as
never before. Perhaps she loved
this man, and thus he must fight
for him just as he would fight for
her.
These two opposing impulses,
md all the thoughts that conferred
upon them flashed to his conscious
ness in the twinkle of an eye.
His gun sprang to his shoulder.
He looked along the barrel. The
bear had reared up, preparing to
strike, and at this range Fete could
hardly miss the huge form; the
question was whether or not he
could reach vital place. But at
The crack of the rifle the roaring
bear pitched forward, in mccarthy
silence, in the moss.
The rest was like dresm: Ivan
shuddering, Che pocketiag his r;s-
tol; the fleeing form OF tbs natives
the hills unchanged against the
gray clouds. This man was no
coward tfis son of Ashland he
was able to smile family as he
turned to his rescuer.
"That was a good SHOT, Pete, .
he said in a voice that hardly trem-
bled. Il owe you some extra days
pay for that. A few jumps more,
and Pm afraid we'd have had two
handsome gentlemen to carry back
to Georgia, instead of one"
But Pete scarcely heard. He was
swept with exhultation, not at the
successful shot he had made, but at
his sudden freedom from the domi-
nance Of his own passions. He need
no longer fear his impulses. He
had escaped from himself and had
come out beyond, true to his ideals
and his heritage of chivalry and
manhood.

first live days of their isolation,
and these were followed by a long
period of comparative calm-a
pleasant, threatening weather, yet
nothing to keep stout ships in from

only a vague fear became almost a
certainty; that the Warrior had
gone down among the island crags
the sea; and at the end of ten days
and would not return.
And now the castaways found
themselves confronted by an ugly
situation. AS their hopes of rescue
by the Warrior went down, the
