ing had the swimmers in the pool
from an hour to an hour and a
half five times a week. Previous

were given to the boys swimming
team for their practices. This was
actually the time allotted to de-
velop a swimming team. However
with the end of girls swimming,
herseth acquired the pool for every
night after school in the week and,
it has been truly remarkable the
way in which the swimmers have
improved. All previous records

of swimming practice and indica-
lions point to good showing by
Ely at the state meet.

Duluth & Iron Range
-, tn, Two games played this
week, the Oliver nosed out the Iron
Range team by 13 to II score
while the City was victorious over
tbs School team by an 8 to 6
count. The game between Duluth
& Iron Range and Oliver had
originally been scheduled to go but
seven innings but tie score at the
end of the seventh and tie at the
end of the eighth made the game
a nine inning affair before the
Oliver finally gained one run ad-
vantage and victory. The City and
School game was equally hard
fought and replete with fast play
ing. The School gained the usual
advantage in the early stages of
the game but the dogged persist
ancei of the City team batters final
ly overcame the School advantage
for a hard-earned victory.
On Wednesday, April IA, the
Commercial Club will play the
Zenith for the championship of the
second half. The winner of this
game will then play the school, win
ners of first half, for the Indoor
Baseball Championship of the entire
season.

People are always talking OF the

In America the loco-weed is even

upon his" patient.
1T looks like the only real chance
I've ever had, Mr.. Trask," he blurted
but If you're going in for 1t, well
it's unfortunate, sir. Now, this Miss
Kent is very fine young lady, sir"
''Unquestionably."
"And she's handsome, too" added
Keller. "And rich, 1 hear. And I'm
sure she takes a great interest in you
Mr.. Trask. 1t seems to me, sir, that
your futures made, IL you don't mind
me saying it."
Trask gazed upon his keeper with
amusement and admiration.
you've become a sudden champion
of Miss Kent, Keller"
| ladies, sir"
I'm short, you want me to keep
| away from Miss Sands?"
Keller was silent and uncomfort
able. Trask studied him briefly. then
shook his head.
"Sorry. Keller, old man, but It can't
be DONE"
Keller groaned.
That being the situation, how is it
between us? Peace or war;" inquired
Trask.
Good heavens, sir! TIN never be
war. I've taken a liking to you, Mr..
Trask. We-er--we may be rivals,
sir; but there'll be no war between
us. But I'll ask you, sir, to give an
other thought to Miss Kent before you
decide. She's n wonderful young lady,
Mr.. Trask."
Thanks, Keller; I'll think about it.
Meantime, who am while I'm in
the first cabin?"
You're Mr.. Trumbull. That can't
be helped now"
And I keep right on being an in.

Its better. sir. ThereIl be no ex-
plantations required then"
And you expect to keep on being

Unless you give me away, SIR"
We'll, how am / going to explain
calling you Keller in front of Miss
Sands?"
"And how are you going to explain
my calling you Mr.. Trumbulr?"
countered the anxious guardian
Trask frowned.

mitted. IF you want my frank opin.
ion, Keller, I think we're both in
Dutch--dOWnStairS."
Keller nodded his head mournfully,
signifying his fear that Trask was hit
ting very close to the mark.
There was q knock at the stateroom
door. and as Keller arose to answer it,
he made n swift signal to Trask, who
dropped hastily into the wheel chair.
A moment of whispered conversation
between the nurse and somebody out
side followed, and then Keller stepped
on deck and closed the door after him.
He was gone for several minutes
When he returned his brow was moist
and his eyes anxious.
There's the devil to pay, SIR" he
announced abruptly.
What now?"

"She managed to visit the second

"Well?"

"And she saw you jump 6 feet over

Trask whistled softly.
What them" he managed to ask.
well, she's told Miss Kent, sir.
And she's told Mrs. Kent. And the
worst is. sir, she's told the captain!"
eco ahead. What's the rest of the
cheerful news?"
"Well, the captain thinks there's
some queer business going on. sir, and
he's started an investigation. He's
sent for me and you, Mr.. Trask."
Tell him I'm sick"
"I'm afraid 1t won't do, sir. He
seems to be suspicious. He hasn't
business. There's nothing for it, sir,
but to go up to his office"
Trask chewed his lip and tried to
reflect, but no solution Of the dilemma
suggested itself.
well, how am I to go. Keller?
Afoot or awheel?"
Take my advice, sir. and stick to
the chair as long as you can"
"All right. Wheel me up to the
judgment seat. But, listen. Keller
We stick together, now. Understand?
Well play the string out like pals"
Right, sir. I'll do my best by you,
Mr.. Trask, and l know you'll do as
much for me. Well AK 1t somehow.
Shall we shake hands on 1t, sir?'
They shook hands.
"And my names still Trumbull, you
KNOW" warned Trask.
Leave that to me, SIR" said the
Tennessee Tornado.

when Sidney Sands was concerned.
It's like this, sir. / called you
'Trumbull' down there. and 1t might
be hard to explain. And then there s
the things l said about you to Miss
Sands. I'm sorry 1 did it; but it's
done. / didn't know who you were, of
course"
But I'll explain all that to her"
'Mr.-Trask! You'll not give me
away, sir?"
There was keen alarm in Keller s
voice. He leaned forward in his chair
and thrust out his hand in an invol-
untary gesture of supplication.
But l called you 'Keeler,' didn't I?''
I'll manage to explain that, sir, >
said the nurse hastily. "I'll fix that
all right. You leave it to me, Mr..
Trask."
You mean to tell me that you pro-
pose to go on parading as Capt. Fer
rlss?"
What else can I do?"
'keeler, you're shameless! 1 won't
permit it. You got no right to palm
off such stuff on an innocent girl"

said Keller, with ain apologize cough.

Trask was jolted. 1t was as If he
had run headlong into stone fence.
You see." added Keller. pressing
his point eagerly. IT'S the same be-
tween you and Miss Kent as it is be-
tween me and Miss Sands. If it's
wrong for me. it seems as If 1t ought
to be wrong for you, sir"
''Keeler, this is blackmail.'
Now, Mr.. Trask. You surprise me.
sir I'd not think of such a thing.
I was only trying to point out that
well, that 1t was about six of one
and half a dozen of the other. And
there's no real harm done, either, so
long as you stick to your story here
and stick to mine there
Yes. But when l see Miss Sands
again, how about explaining affairs
between you and me?"
Wont Miss Kent do for you, sir?"
he pleaded.
Trask laughed.
II like to roam around, Keller" he
said. What harm is there in 1t? Be-
sides. how am going to get rid of
that dragon?"
That's a hard one, too" admitted
Keller sadly. "But I'll help you all l
can there"
Anything to keep me from going
back to the second cabin--is that it?"
II wouldn't like to put 1t that way.

FRENCH PRETENDER
GOES TO MOROCCO
Forced to Travel With His Son
Just Like an Ordinary
Voyager.

By the Associated Press.
ROTTERDAM, Holland, December
1S.-"John III of France" better
known as the Duke of Guise, Orleans
pretender to the French throne, was
obliged to wait here with his son three
days before finding vessel to trans
port him to his estate in the Spanish
zone of Morocco. where he expects to
spend the holidays.
The duke was unable to traverse
France and embark at Marseille like
an ordinary voyager from Belgium, be-
cause Of the French law of Danish
ment against the pretender.
1t is understood he would welcome
abrogation of the Punishment provi-
sion because his large farming prof.
ects In Aisne department, ravaged by
the war, demand his attention. and
that he is not inclined to insist upon
recognition OF his claims to the throne.
The duke succeeded to the pretender-
ship on the death of the Duke Of Or
leans last Spring. He served with
the Red Cross during the war, after
being refused the right to serve in the
allied armies. Nevertheless, he was
awarded the croix de guerre.
