Laughing at her. confidence in

again. Then he scrambled back
carrying an object very gingerIy
between thumb and forefinger.

There was a step in the hall;
Emily felt herself brushed aside.
Ted looked very earnest and very
purposeful, indeed, as he gathered
Kitten in his arms, kissing away
the tears, running his fingers over
the bright hair.
Emily went down to the garden,
thinking Of Marty and OF Kingdom

She weeded the marigod patch;
sat down on the short grass to
watch the four-o'clocks open.

LOWDEN SAYS SPENT ABOUT
 SIXTY THOUSAND so FAR

WASH1NGTON. (Pj Former Governor Lowden. testifying before the Special Senate Campaign Funds Committee, said he had spent about sixty thousand dollars so far fur thering his candidacy for the Presi- dential nomination. He said his receipts totalled about siXty-four thousand seven hundred. His per sonal books showed that he con- tributed about twelve thousand five hundred of his own funds to ad- vance his own cause, although he said his campaign manager, Clar- ence Buck informed him that his contribution was really fifteen thousand. He declared that the discrepancy would be strengthened out when he could find time to ex. anime his accounts.
 The greater part of the big fund Lowden said. was contributed by two of his old personal friends. Omer Custer of Galesburg. Illinois, and Robert Clark of Los Angeles.

WASHINGTON, (Pl - In Con gressional report Secretary Work expressed the belief that consoli- dation of the present police and other law enforcement agencies in Alaska into one single force as has been recommended, is neither fea- sible nor proper at the present.
 The report disclosed some phases of the varied activities of the diff erent departments maintaining en- foreement officers il the Territory. Because of the h. ure Of the par ticular weIt of each az ,.c.. See retary Work sa4s: "It dees AoJ ap- pear that consolidation of such agencies into |, single force would be conducive to better law enforce ment. or ia the public interest,
 While q view has been expressed by several departments that sup plementary force to cooperate with the existing agencies might be ad- vantageous, the neer for the es- tahlishment of an additional law enforcement is not apparent from information available to the depart ment nor in the facts disclosed in letters from several of the depart- ments now interested in such act vities.
 "A supplementary force or con stabulary would entail an addition al expense of such proportions as would not be justified by any of the agencies now known to exist"
 The departments maintaining en- forcement officers in Alaska are the Department Of Justice, Department of Agriculture, Department of Com merce, and the Department of the Treasury, and the officials include Marshals, Game Wardens.

 SAYS CONSCIENCE Ill RTS

LOS ANGELES. eP) - James Ifooven twenty-seven years old alias James William Huh, serving six months sentence for petty theft, told his jailer, Frank De- Var. that his conscience was ''driv- Ing him crazy" and confessed to he slayings of seventeen-year-oid Ruth Limle. of Summitsville. Ind ana. and eishteenye year-old James Leo Carroll. of Los Angeles.
 Hooven last month attempted to commit suicide in the jail cell. The coroner $ record on the death of Carroll wa- found to be written down as either suicide or aeci- aentaI.'
 Hooven said he was engased to Blanche LtmIe, an older sister of he slain girl shortly after he was discharged from the Army in 1919. Ie said that his fance rolled him for all the money he had some fifteen hundred dollars and then led with another man. He was inable to .aet vengeance from her. SD he said he killed the young er sister by poisoning her soup. Then watched her die, he said.
 Hooven killed Carroll the same way. because Carroll had a lot of insurance he couldn't touch
