celebrated in America 307 years
ago at Plymouth, Mass, by the
PILGRIMS. who arrived in this
country on December 81, 1920.
For 10 years they had lived IN Hol-
land. where they had gone from Eng
land. In that country the Dutch peo-
ple. October 3 of each year, had cele-
grated their deliverance from the Span
iards. 1t was, therefore, very natural
that thanks should be offered In tnls
new country for blessings received, IN
the form of religious ceremony ana
feasting
The Mayfiower, with the Pilgrims
who had gone over from Holland TO
England, sailed from Plymouth in the
Autumn Of 1920. There were on noaro
the ship about 100 men, women and
children. OF. these, less than 30 coulo
be called Pilgrims. The others were
persons who had joined them, or were
servants or sailors. Capt. Miles STAND"
ish was one who was not member OF
the Pilgrim congregation, but was
man with the heart Of a lion IN oaCtle,
and the hand of a woman with the sick
and wounded.
The tourney was lraught with dan
gers and hardships When their destl-
nation was reached they found a bleak
and barren place, and were Obliged 10
, remain on board the boat until COM
mon house could be built to which the
,, sick and dying were taken.
The Winter was hard one, ana
, there was much suffering. BY Spring,
more than half of their number had
died. While they were searching Tor a
place to build their homes, some corn
was found in a deserted Indian hut.
/ This was planted the following Spring
and formed the nucleus of their first
! crop.

90 Indians were entertained at this
feast. When leaving they went out
and killed five deer, which they brought
back and presented to the governor.
This celebration, which was ordered
by Gov. Bradford, is believed to be the
| first Thanksgiving from which we date
our celebration, but some writer's deny
this, one saying: There is no record
of any special religious service during
! this time of feasting."

with hardships for the Pilgrims. An

There was an awkward pause. Edgar
Morse desired to invite this regal gen.
tleman to play with him, but he dreaded
rebuff. And, just when the subject
was about to expire naturally, Tommy
ventured polite "Why?"
"Why-er-a-I just sort Of thought

Edgar H. Morse returned, flushed and
triumphant FIXED him. Amt hard,

Tommy took cigarette from plati-

Edgar Morse took one, his eyes focused

more closely, then lighted the thing and
inhaled deeply. Fine cigarette. What

They chatted amiably, and then Tom

disappeared, Mr. Edgar H. Morse
reached into the ash tray and rescued
two frayed cigarette stubs.

hand, II his friend was willing to part
with them at all, he would do both an
inestimable favor by permitting him to
pay for them-any price Mr.. Braden
chose to ask.
I'm sorry, Mr.. Morse. But. if you
put it that way, agree to sell them
to you. You may have them for just
what they cost me-$75, ,000."
MorSe's voice trembled with emotion.
That's wonderful of you, Mr.. Braden-
wonderful. And 1 realize that we shall
remain indebted to you beyond words
The trouble you've taken! The love
you have for them"
Lets don't talk about them any
more, Morse. I shall get the pearls
from the safe tomorrow and give them
to you" He smiled slightly. And, if
you should change your mind during
the night and be willing to accept them
as a gift, I hope you will let me
know"
But they did not change their minds
Instead, they talked until far into the
morning hours of this genie-this gen.
tleman who. for reasons quite his own,
maSqueraded under the name of
Thomas Matlock Braden.
Tommy was exceedingly pleased with
himself. The presence of Jim Hanvey
Tommy was up early the next morn
ing. On the veranda he came upon
Jim Hanvey.
'Lo, Jim. Taking stroll?"
"Uh-huh."
"Walkin' my way, Tommy?"
Braden wasn't, but YES" he Said
and they moved off.
It was the detective who spoke first,
and his tone was reproving Thought
you told me you wasn't up to nothing
around here, Tommy"
I'm not'-with indignation.
y Then how does 1t happen that every
body in the hotel thinks you are Jared
Mallory?"
That's the funniest thing that's ever
happened to me, Jim. You know
don't look unlike Mallory
Moo, you don't. But, on the other
hand, you and him amt no twins"
Exactly. But somebody started the
rumor that / was Mallory and there
wasn't any stopping the thing"
"You amt been trying very hard to,
have you?"
mo. Frankly. 1t amused me to be
mistaken for him."
'No-er-reason?"
Certainly not, Jim. No one has told
you that ever admitted being Mallory,
have they?"
Moo. They havent-that's right"
Jim nodded heavily. Il feel relieved,
Tommy. I sure would hate to see you
try to pull something-and I'm glad we
had this talk. Hope you amt sore at

IN his room again, Braden telephoned
the MorseS and made an appoint
ment for o'clock that afternoon. It
was fully 10 minutes past the hour of
his appointment when he raped upon
the door of their suite. They were
etfusive; couldn't thank him enough for
his generous offer. of the previous eve
ming and they hoped that he hadn't
changed his mind-and that he
wouldn't later regret having sold the
pearls.

1T is, Mickey: it certainly is. But
they don't care anything for your car
cass; they can pick you up any minute.
They're after the jewels. Pretty re-
ward they're offering, isn't it?"
Mr.. Donley shook his head SORROW
fully "Ten thousand berries. Gosh!
But the point is-where'n we meet?"
Mr. Braden did some careful think
ing. Let's say tomorrow afternoon at
2 o'clock at the corner of Boulevard
and Thirty-second Street, Bayonne.
And be sure they don't trail you"
Mickey laughed shortly. THE dick

They met as per schedule. Tommy
Rraden was at the wheel of bor-
rowed sedan. Together they rolled
slowly down the Hudson County Boule-
ward toward Bergen Point. Mr.. Donley
produced a chamois sack, and from 1t
poured forth a stream of pink glory.
Tommy's eyes glittered. Very fine,
Hmm! I should say they're worth a
hundred thousand dollars"
"Ev'ry dime of that. Say, listen

Don't be silly, Mickey. Here's your

Mr.. Donley left the sedan and re-
earned to New York via the Jersey Gen.
&ral The route chosen by Mr.. Thomas
Matlock Braden was more circuitouS
He reached his apartment, concealed
the pearls, and, four days later, de-
parted for Indiana.
BEFORE his departure, Braden haC
~ planned every move of the game
He had obtained several magazines that
contained pictures of a certain Mr.
Jared Mallory. Mr.. Braden had always
been interested in Mr.. Mallory. The
interest had been aroused by the casua
comment of a friend that Braden anc
AIR. Mallory were not diSSimilar in ap'
pearance. Mr.. Mallory was a trif1t
older, but he had the same lean, sinewy
figure; the same easy grace OF bearing
the same appearance OF gentlllty. o
course, no person who knew Mr.. Nal
Tory could ever confound the twain
but a person who had never seen Mr.
Mallory (and few had, beyond his linn
1Jed clrcle) cOulQ very TedQlLy ueleF'
that Tommy Braden was he, provided
that belief was suggested.
Tommy Braden was great admire
bf Mallory. The latter was immeasur
ably wealthy; he did not work; he ex
listed in a world of his own, and looket
with disdain upon the commercial
world. If he dabbled at all in tn
mart of commerce, it was with al
hloofness that kept his name clear o
financial news. But the greatest lin
between MeSsrs. Braden and Mallor
lay in the fact that the latter was
Jewel collector.
Tommy collected jewelry, although
in a more informal way. A gem, to MI
Mallory, was a thing of beauty; some
thing to be treasured and gazed upol
and studied. Mr. Braden, being rathe
material, saw in jewel only its mar
ketable value.
Jared Mallory was person withou

his intimacy only to the Morses. And it
was after fortnight of this that the
subject of jewelry came up; neither
Ed3ar nor his wife suspected that
Tommy had introduced the subject.
But, after ALL" declaimed Mr.. Bra
den, "there is only one jewel worthy the

Illinois Candidate Opens
Second Campaign.

BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,, March g.
Bitterly denouncing the United
States Senate for its refusal to seat
him as Senator-elect from Illinois,
Colonel Frank L. Smith Thursday
night opened his campaign for the
Republican senatorial nomination.
"The Senate chamber is the SUI
preme and safest vantage point in
all this world from which to launch
attacks upon the character, morals,
politics or religion of anyone whom
Soever," Smith declared.
ISLANDER and libelare not recog-
nized as SUCH" he said.
Smith declared that half a hun
dred senator's had asserted them
selves against the opinion of 100000
citizens of Illinois.
But what are 100000 citizens Of
Illinois to hundred United
States Senator's" he asked.
What is the whole 100000 Of
our people to that little half hun
dred when presidential nominating
conventions are approaching?" he
demanded.
