A Womans Scream - and the
 Knowledge That Mary and Prin-
 cess OIina Are in Danger, sends
 Noel and Georges Flying to Their
 Rescue!
 It was but the fraction of sec ond that Lillian and l stared at each other as l cried out my sud- den discovery that the old woman in the bungalow was an imposter Then we both went into action. l dashed for the door and Lillian, as she followed me, issued a quick command.
 Phil! Telephone the manager and have him rush some men up to that roof bungalow. Noel, come with us. We'll send in one of the men from the hall outside"
 She uttered the last words in the hall. and she, Noel and l. pausing only 10 send one of the guards in side. raced up to the roof, not stop ping for the elevator. There was no light upon the roof and none in any of the bungalows. Lillian put her hand upon my arm as we neared it.
 Don't knock" she said. Try the door noiselessly. If you're right the imposter isn't there now. Did you notice where the light switch was?'
 Just inside the door," l whis- pered.
 Gan you reach it with the door just slightly ajar?"
 Yes"
 Then don't open it any farther than you have to. switch on the light and draw back"
 I went to the door and found that the knob turned easily. 1 fol- lowed her directions implicitly, and the next instant the little bungalow blazed with light. But there was neither sound nor visible movement, and cautiously we made our way into it and looked around. No one was in sight the bed was unoccu pied and hasty inspection of the other rooms showed the place to be deserted.
 Lillian turned to the door wen have to let them know about this, she said. and yet we might upset everything by putting in. Madge! What"
 She did not finish the sentence but sprang to my aid as did Noe I had gone to the portion Of the wall behind which I had heard the scratching during the time l had interviewed the supposed tenant of the place. I was fumbling along t. and finally found the spring which l was sure was there. It swung open revealing a fair-sized closet space in which lay something which chilled me with fear.
 It was the inert figure of a wo- man, bound and gagged.
 "Dead?" Noel whispered fearfully as we lifted her out of the space and laid her on the couch.
 No" Lillian said authoritatively "only tainted. Give me a knife, Noel. and Madge look for some res torative. Bring a pan of cold Wa ter"
 "Dont Wait"
 I brought the water immediately and by the time she and Noel had removed the gag and cut the wo- mans bonds l had found a restora- tive which I knew was potent. l prepared it and held it in readiness while Lillian threw water in the woman's face, and Noel chafed her hands.
 She's coming round" Lillian whispered in moment T think she can swallow and talk" She raised her eyes from a close inspec- ton of the woman's throat. She hasn't been kept gagged all the time. Can you swallow" ?" She bent closer to the woman whose eyes had opened and were looking at us with fierce imperative appeal even as she nodded an assent to the aues- ton.
 Let her sip that, Madge," Lillian directed and drop by drop I ad-

 Don't wait" the old woman whispered. The man-dressed like me-looks like me-gone down over the -hiding-quick."
 Lillian turned to the men. One of you go for woman to take charge here,' she said crisply. The other stay here until she comes. Come"
 Noel and l rushed with her down the stairs, past our own floor to the one on which the tiger trap" was located There was no question now of fearing to butt in.' Some where between Us and the tiger trap" q malignant and resourceful desperado lurked.
 wen go to the room next to Prince Georges and knock softly" Lillian said as we came to the last step of the stairs. Perhaps We can get away with it.
 Our knock was not answered at once. But q few seconds after We repeated it. Dicky came to the door and opened it. He was collarless, his hair rumpled, his clothing di- sheveled and he was bleeding from q cut on his chin. But he was not seriously hurt l saw that and wasted no time in a solicitude which knew would be unwelcome to him.
 There's man loose" I said. and before I could finish he had taken my hand and raced with me into the next room in which the furniture was all tumbled over. There had been a desperate strug- gle. We saw that. Prince Georges and Harry Underwood were also bleeding from slight cuts upon their faces. But three powerful men trussed as if for baking, their malignant eyes cleaning like those of feral animals, were evidence that their slight wounds had not been in vain.
 There's a man loose" I repeated. He impersonated the woman in the bungalow We just found her gagged and bound"
 "Harry, He's Lying!"
 With & bound, Harry Unle'Wood seized one of the bound tlS4res and ierked it forward.
 Tell me where that man is" he said, "or you'll be shoveling coal in hell in the next thirty seconds"
 The man seemed to slump togeth- CT in AIr, Underwood's powerful grip.
 He was to have been here" he said, and there was every appear ance of plausibility in his tone. That is the reason we slipped up. One more man would have turned the trick. I don't know where he is. He was to have come down from the roof. Perhaps he fell off. It's slippery up there" The explanation was a plausible one, but someway it did not ring | true to me. Why I did not know. It was intuition, not my reason, which prompted. my cry
 Harry I called. Hes lying. l know it. The man who gagged tha, old woman was too clever to fall He didn't mean 10 come here. He
 MT. Underwood had the mans 1 throat in his hands.

 He was to get in the girls room,' the man began.

The next story: The Little Dog Has a Lesson"
Seward daily gateway., 1929-09-12

Fur 6z Game Commission, that all legislation affording protection to the Alaska brown bear or silvertip species of bear, be repealed in this district of the southern Kenai pen- insula.
 Moreover, we advise the necessity of placing a substantial bounty on the species of bear, or ii thought more practical, that experienced hunters be employed to reduce their number within safe bounds.
 And finally, we believe it to be advisable that all legislation af- fording protection to any and all of the black bear species or varie- ties be repealed in these districts of the southern Kenai peninsula.
 This petition has been drafted by R. B. Gray at the request of mem bers of this community.
 R. B. Gray, Homer, Alaska.

KENAI PENINSULA
 RESIDENTS SEEK
 CHANGE GAME LAN|
PETITION FROM FOUR TOWNS GOING FORWARD: SIGNED
 BY MAJORITY FOLK

The cooperation of the citizens of Seward and the Gateway is ask ed in letter received from citizens of Kenai peninsula with respect to repeating all legislation affording protection to any and all variety of black bear, and likewise, the lifting of laws on brown bear or silvertip species. The reasons, are clearly set forth in the following copy of the petition adressed to the Alaska Game Commission by the citizens of Kenai peninsula.
 On the editorial page will be found a direct message to the peo- pie of this community from the petitioners.
 To the Alaska Fur & Game Com
 mission Juneau Alaska.
 We, the under signed. residents of the southern Kenai peninsula, by common consent are agreed that drastic changes in our present regulations affording protection to the Alaska brown bear are urgently and immediately needed. The fol- lowing statements can be vouched for by some of the signers of this petition, and these facts are ac- cepted by every member of this community.
 Namely: That the Alaska brown bear have in the past two years in creased in an alarming and in an almost incredible ratio. That their depredations, especially on moose, constitute the gravest menace, and that it may in the near future ef- feet their extermination.
 Andrew Sholin, whose name ap- pears in this petition, in trip to the Caribou Hills during June 1929, near the head of Ketchemak Bay, found numerous instances of the destructive proclivities of these animals. He found the remains of numerous moose, chiefly cows and calves that had been killed by the brown bear, and brown and black bear both singly and in groups were sighted daily
 Gus Neshlund of Seldovia, in a brief trip on the lower Anchor Point river saw no fewer than 50 brown bear.
 During June of this year, the re-

mains of COW and calf moose were found in the residence district of Homer that had been killed by bear.
 These are but few of the many verifiable instances of the destruc- tive habits of these animals toward the most valuable of our wild life. In addition, prospectors, hunters and trappers of experience are aware that these animals are a very real menace to human life, that stock raisers here are often handicapped because of this men ace to domestic stock where such animals must be ranged at a dis tance from human habitation; prospecting here has not only been retarded but has almost discontin- ,ued.
 Hence, we are agreed that as an economic asset, there can be no comparison between such valuable animals as moose and caribou and of these brown bear.
 We are also agreed that the in terests of hte residents of the Ter |ritory be held paramount to those of outside sportsmen and tourists, or to that of any non-residential influence; and that due considera- tion be given their personal well fare.
 We would suggest that as a pledge of good faith and verity, that game wardens be sent here and to all other districts where similar conditions exist, and that in company with competent local guides, they make thorough in vestigation of this question.
 We therefore petition the Alaska

SPEED-UP, CUTS
But Irritates Eastern
Rivalry With British

The Paragon Refining Company
made its contribution to United
States war preparations. when it an
nounced its merger with the Valvo-
line Oil Company yesterday. s.
Operating in every branch of the
petroleum industry except produc-
ton, the new group will bring to-
gether organizations active in the
United States and Great Britain and
its colonies, E. w. Edwards, presi-
dent, said. Thus, by joining the
Royal Dutch Standard Oil scramble
in Persia and India, the new groups
will irritate further the maturing
Anglo-American imperialist rivalry.
The Paragon organization has
complete refining plant with a ca
pacity of 5000 barrels day on a
SO acre plot in Toledo, Ohio. 1t also
operates a tank farm of 100000 bar
rels capacity, and has four subsi-
diary companies.
The Valvoline group has refiner-
les at Warren and East Butler, Pa,
and operates a filtering plant and
canning factory at Edgewater, N. j.
It's last years $799,517 profit will
be greatly increased with the
greater application of speed-up and
wage cut measures which go with
the merger.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 26.-Safely
out of danger from the storms re-
ported off the Aleutian Islands, the
Wall Street backed flight of the
Graf Zeppelin appeared to be near
ing completion today. Yesterday
Commander Eckener, who was ira
versing the northern steamship route
in the Toxic to Los Angeles hop,
changed the course of the weapon
which will play an important part
in the coming imperialist war, aban-
doning the earlier plans to fly over
Seattle for the safer southern course.
At 10 o'clock this morning the Graf
radioed its position as 900 miles off
the coast of California and if tail
winds continue to speed it along at
the present rate Of 80 miles an
hour, it should be sighted over Cali

No action in a situation like this!

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. Aug. 26.
Sixty-fo Of Julia Hanlon's II years
have been devoted to making profits
for Wamsutta cotton mills--and she
has not yet been thrown on the
streets.
She was 2 weaver for SO years.
When the New Bedford Board Of

millowners it represented, conducted
an Industrial Veterans competition.
Julia won the first prize. TIE rich
reward for her years of punctual
obedience to the looms was gold

industrial slavers--16 of them with
records of more than 80 years. They
didn't all get medals like Julia, but
they were congratulated by the man.

with every one of them.
The Board Of Commerce has prog

ing a campaign for class collabora-
ton, and company-unionism which
it styles promoting community fell
lowship." The fellowship" of
course includes "non-union" workers,

wealth."
Hanlon was born at fremont in
the Cape Cod district. She started
work in New Berford as sweeper.
"The mills couldn't get men," she
said. "The machinery for the new
mill was here. but they had to take
it apart in little pieces and we girls
carried it to where they built the
new mill. So many men were dead
or away at the war"
