You have spent most of your time IN

The cocktails were served. Victor

You have insight, son-in-law," he
said with sarcasm which he took no

called British common sense. Yet If
you know so much you should know

"You left our friends at Ardrington

And glad to have got rid of us for
short time, without a doubt?"
II should gather So" Martin as
sented. You seem to belong to period
of his life which Lord Ardrington Is

Solomon Graunt smiled slightly. He
was watching the efforts of the bar
tender, but his smile seemed to belong
to other and less pleasing things.
Anxious to forget it, no doubt he
is he agreed. But he never will.
Not chance, Mr.. Barnes. He will al

is why Victor and l are here"

Martin demanded What's the use of

But. then, you see, even when we are

POLICE. TO BUY KEEPERS

Chief W. (. Hart of the police de- partment announced today that the members of the regular police force have voted to purchase reefer coats for wear in the fall season. For the past several years the uniforms have not included fall coat, but the pO- licemen have found that there are many nights when the weather IS too cool for the summer coats and not cold enough for the winter coats. They will pay for the reefers at the approximate rate of s27 apiece. The policemen also considered purchasing blue shirts to wear in the summer instead of white shirts. but decided not to make the change this year.

Three Are Saved,

Kings Bay, Spitzbergen. June l , (LP)-Three members of the crew Of the lost dirigible Italia, stranded for three weeks in the bitterly cold Arctic wastes have been saved. ac- cording 10 an unconfirmed story hunters told today when they board cd the steamer Braganza off North East Land.
 The three. including Finn Malm- gren. were rescued by relief cXpe- dition sent out by the Norwegian steamer Hobby and now are aboard that craft.
 The hunters did not know exactly where the trio had been picked up.
 Thc Bra ganza reached North E.as Land last night. As the rugged steamer. chartered by General Um- harto Mobiles own government, cruised into the ice dotted water the huntsmen were taken aboard.
 They immediately told the grati- flying news that the Hobby party had rescued three Of those men who had made the adventurous and disastrous tour over the north pole the latter part of May They did not say. according to adviccs here. where the three had been found.
 II was presumed here that the three men were those who spli, from General Mobiles immediate party after that group Of nine had Teen left stranded on an ice block when the big dirigible suddenly sank and scraped off one gondola

In the party that left Mobile were Finn Malmgren. Captain Filippo Zappi and Captain Adalberto Mari ano.
 If the story Of the huntsmen is found true that will leave thirteen men still to be accounted for. Six are in the party with Mobile now huddiing about silken red tent on floating ice, waiting for rescue and suffering from cold. exposure and hunger.
