CHAPTER Mi.
HYOCENE.

~ MITHINS - that London firm,
posing as brokers' the connecting
link between Redslade, Marllng
~ and Fotherbury in the mystery
of Roger Pell!
Fotherbury merely gasped. Laxton
spoke again;
Did you think Smithins were acting
for a client? My dear sir, they acted
for themselves. Having drawn Mr..
Redslade into their trap, they induced
him to give most preposterouS mort
gage on Newplace. While they were
negotiating that mortgage security, Mr..
Redslade mentioned. in jocular way,
that there were legends of concealed
riches at NeYplace. Marling heard of
the story. came down to look over the
abbey ruins and probably persuaded
YOU. without your own consciousness OF
it, to engage him as chaplain"
Mr.. Fotherbury signed to Laxton to

and Markings conduct, that Pen was
murdered in this room"
"Pell?" Mr.. Fotherbury exclaimed.
"Whatever Marling may have been,
professor, he didn't shoot Pen."
1T didn't say he shot Pel," Laxton
retorted. II said Pell was shot because
of Marling. And I'll tell you how, Mr..
Fotherbury. Pell ana Mr.. Redslade
were close friends.
As Laxton went on to relate the story

north DAKOTA Will
TRY DAHO'S METHOD
OF O|LlNG HIGHWAYS
System Will Cost More Than
Crawling, but Will Provide
Smooth, Oustless Road

Decision to experiment with oiled
roads similar to those being con.
structed in Idaho was reached by the
state highway commission here Satur.
day. The Idaho msthod, recently
examined by two commissioners and
two engineers, will be adapted to
North Dakota conditions.
The expectation is that the new
system will cost approximately $4,000
. mile more than crawling but 1t will
provide a smooth, dustless road.
maintenance costs will be 20 per cent
Of the cost Of maintaining gravel and
requirements y III be cheaper and will
be needed only once In five years.
The roads on which experiments
will be made this year will be selected
by the state highway department en-
gineering staff.
Informal bids will be taken ON the
equipment necessary to do the work.
the list including an 600-gallon dis.
tributor with heater and auxiliary
power; two disc harrows and one
springtooth harroy. one steam boiler
and three moldboards. An addition.
81 tractor also will be purchased.
The commission awarded contracts
for q years supply Of lubrtcating oil,
contracts going to the Dakota OH
company for oil needed neal Valley
City and jamestown and to the
Standard Oil company for oil require
ments throughout the rest Of the
state.
Request 70: the construction Of q
bridge across Park river on federal
highway No. 81 at Grafton was ap-
proved.
The drives around the state capitol
building were added to the state high
way commission at the request OF the
state board Of administration and VIII
be maintained by the highway de-
partment.
E. G. Peck, who has been given
charge Of the department accounting
system, was named assistant secretary
Of the highway commission.
Three policies laid down by the de.
partment in the past were reaffirmed
They we're that no oiling Of tarrine
will be done except on roads where
the traffic exceeds 800 vehicles pei
day; that the department will builc
no spurs from main highways anc
that the department will appropriate
no money for paving until the high
way system Is nearer completion.
