His rather heavy horse, cOmDlna-
ton of pack and saddle, was well
laden behind the rolled blankets that
formed a parapet across its shoulders
Lee inhaled with delight the warm
steamy exhalations Of the earth, rich
with the added debris Of the year.
He turned and looked forward, be-
yond the settlement of Little Falls,
lying at the foot Of the slope in
front of him, the last of the settle
ments on his side Of Stony range.
1t was an unkempt, untidy little
place, created by the advent of the
lumber companies a few years before,
and struggling among the knee-high
stumps of what had been virgin forest
within the decade.
After his belated return from
France, only to find the old North
west mounted, of which he had been
a member, merged in the new Do
minion body, Lee himself had been
stationed at Manistree. He had been
in the police eight years before the
war. 1t was the only life that ap-
pealed to him. His service had ex-
pired during his term at the front, but
his first act on returning had been to
rejoin.
Inspector Crawley had sent for him
a few days later.
Anderson" he said, II want you
to be ready to start for Stony range
in the morning to pick up a man
named Pelly. He's on the list of

fact. / guess you don't know any
thing about the case, though"

"Oh, 1t happened a deuce Of time
before you went to France, Anderson.
Twenty-Five years ago, more or less.
Might have left the poor devil alone,
especially as he's been a fugitive so
long. But it's murder, Sergeant, and
well, the new police have got to
show themselves just as. efficient
blood hounds as the force. The
papers in the case have just come
through Ottawa.

killed a man in Toronto in the nine
ties for insulting his wife. Those de-
tails are not given. 1t appears

Pelly has been living in the SistOn
lake region. on the other side of
Stony range, for good many years.
Pelly appears to have got wind of
this and made quick getaway. Now
the words come in that he's been
seen in the district. May be true or
false

CHAPTER |
Sergeant Anderson Rides
Into Little Falls

Lee Anderson, sergeant in the
Royal Canadian Mounted Police, had
been leading his horse up the last
hill. Now he stopped at the top and
lit his pipe, letting the animal snatch
a few blades of the sparse grass that
grew among the ferns and raspberry
brambles beside the cart track.
There were, perhaps, thirty-three or
four years to his credit. His rather
lined, deeply sunburned face and
throat contrasted markedly with the
edging of white flesh at the V-top of
his open shirt. Lee, In his prospec-
tors clothing, appeared to be typically
one of those reserved, quiet, self-con-
talnad men whom the north breeds.

Little Falls.
unspoken question as to what such a
girl was doing in Little Falls.
That she was riding into the range
was evident. Had she been riding out,
the men would have known Of her,
But-whose daughter was she?
There was no one in the now de-
serted range to whom she could be
going. The only possible destination
might be the Moravian mission on the
other side. But-there were NO
women at the mission.
well, va see, Miss" the fat land
lord was saying, we're purity well
filled up so fur as rooms is concerned.
But the wife's over to Old Landing fer
a few days, an l guess you en- hev

the fust room on the right at the
top of the stairs You jest walk up
and make yourself comfortable, Miss,
and I'll take your hoss into the stable
and see that he gifts fed and watered
And supper's ready"
THANK you, but had mine on the
road. And / shall be going on early
in the morning"
By now the crowd Of ex-prospectors
had formed a wide circle about the
girl, standing as far as the pas
sage would permit, staring and
scrutinizing her frankly, and looking
sheepishly away whenever her un-
embarrassed glance fell upon any Of
them. Lee, hearing a muttering be-
hind him. turned, to see the big breed
staring at the girl and whispering ex-
citedly to his companion. His red
headed partner was tugging at his
arm as if to restrain him.
"You d-n fool, Pierre" Lee heard
him expOstulate.
Suddenly the breed shook of the
others grip and lurched forward
Planting himself in front Of the girl,
he leaned toward her, with an ex-
preston on his face that brought the
blood into her cheeks.
Before he could utter word, how
ever, Lee stepped quietly into the
breach with that instructive air Of au-

ITALY WILL REPLACE
CROSS OF GETHSEMANE
ny Universal Service.

ROME, Nov. 3O.-Three white
roses marked the spot chosen today
in the Coliseum by Minister of the
Interior Federzoni on which to erect
the cross made of wood grown on
Gethsemane, which on the fourth Of
May, next, will replace the cross re-
moyed from there the same day
fifty-four years ago.
Federzoni cited the proclamation of
Mussolini, calling on Italians in all
parts of the world to join their
countrymen in a celebration of the
Tooth anniversary of the birth of st.
Francis Di Assist, the greatest saint
in the calendar.
The minister quoted the words of
the premier regarding the little YES
sci, sent fourth "by little poor man
Francis" which carried the gospel to
the ends of the earth, and expressed
the hope that the saints anniversary
will be honored by all Italians who
follow "thc way of the cross"
1t is the dearest hope Of the pres
cnt government that when the cross
is replaced in the Coliseum the pope
will thereby become spiritual, as the
king is the temporal, head of the ma
ton.

VIRGlNIANS CELEBRATE
LANDING OF SETTLERS
Cape Henry Event of 31S Years
Ago Commemorated With Ad-
dress by Judge White.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NORFOLK, Va, April 27.-Exer-
cises commemorating the landing 31s
years ago of the first American set
tiers under Capt. Newport were con-
Quoted at Cape Henry this afternoon.
The ceremonies were held at what is
said to be the spot where the voy-
ayers from England landed to set up
a cross and give thanks for their
safe deliverance from the sea before
proceeding to Jamestown Island,
where they established the first per-
manent English settlement on the
new continent.
Judge B. D. White of the Virginia
judiciary delivered the principal ad-
dress, in which he paid tribute to the
colonists and the ideals and principles
of government which they brought
with them to America.
Dignitaries from the Episcopal
Church conducted the religious rites,
and hymns popular three centuries
ago were sung. A large crowd made
the pilgrimage to the sand dunes of
the coast for the exercises.
