Crystal noticed three things that
at the time seemed trivial, but
which later we're to assume terrify-
ing significance.
The first was that the maids i'm

fore her name had actually been
uttered, as if she had been expect
lng the call; the second was a
swiftly exchanged glance between
Tony and Dick, an involuntary
glance from which Tony recoiled
with an almost visible Shudder: and
the third was the fact that, when
Tony had left the JonSon living
room to answer the call, Dick Tai
bot became deaf to the converse
ton about him, nervouSly clenching
and unclenching his laced fingers.
In very short time Tony re-
turned. Dick Talbot's brooding
black eyes fixed themselves on her
beautiful face with fierce inten-
sity, but Tony did not glance toward
him.
I'm awfully sorry, Cherry" Tony
began in her clear voice, but I'll
have to dash back to town after
dinner. Pat demands my presence.

mo. I don't dare I mean
=" He stopped in confusion. and
Mildred saw that haunted look of
deadly fear again in his eyes. Then
he turned upon her, almost in anger.
See what your meddling has done?'
he cried. Let it alone. will you? I
tell you I can't talk. I can't inter
fere."
Mildred looked at him as though
he had turned into an utter strang-
er before her eyes.
Pam would make me pay
for it, he said lamely and Mil
dred knew that he lied.
She felt so sorry for him her heart
ached. Don't worry so much" she
said haltingly. Pamela can look
after herself"
You don't know Huck Connor,"
Harold replied and his hands at The
steering wheel showed white as
bones ri the knuckles. Mildred
could guess that he gripped it SO
to still their trembling.
CHE changed the subject then;
~ tried to take his mind off Huck
and Pamela. Something must be
done for him, though. She would
think it over until Monday. Then,
if she thought best, she would go
to Mr.. Dazel.
But by Monday she was uncertain
as to the best course to follow. Har-
old had called her meddler. She
didn't like that. Perhaps she would
only make things harder for him if
she asked some one else to interfere.
She came to work, still undecided
and wondering if there was the
slightest possibility that talk with
Huck Conner would do any good.
She doubted it.
Pamela would get to hear about
it, too, and Mildred knew what in
reference in Pamela's affairs would
lead to. Besides, it was not alto
gether on his sisters account that
Harold was worried. Mildred was
certain of that.
I just can't afford to lose my
position" Mildred cautioned her
self. Perhaps if l keep my eyes
and ears open can find a better
way of helping Harold than by 60
ing TO Mr.. Dazel."
It happened that she did go to
Mr.. Dazel, but not on Harolds be-
half. On her desk at the hotel she
found a note from the manager
asking her to come to his Office as
soon as she arrived
It's tone was permeptory and chill
ing. A foreboding of trouble crept
over Mildred as she prepared to
obey the summons.
She had come q few minutes
early, but she knew Mr.. Dazel would
be in his Office. She folded the note
and put it in drawer of her desk.
She was somewhat surprised to
see, when she pulled the drawer out,
that her substitutes private posses

desk with an air of proprietorship.

LIMA. Peru, April 13.-Settlement
Of the Tacna AFRICA problem today
had narrowed down to the matter
of obtaining services of a conStruc-
ton company able to give sufficient
assurance of its ability to construct
a satisfactory port, it was learned
authoritatively by the United Press.
The port would be built at La
Yarda in the province of Tacna, a
site selected by Chilean engineers.
First, however, authorities must
be convinced that a port may be
constructed that will endure against

Preliminary agreements said to
have been reached include an ad-
mission by Chile that port site
for Peru is an equal necessity.

CHAPTER XVII

GIEPHEN'S renewed interest in
- Mildred had driven Pamela into
? ferrous temper. She had tired
desperately to monopolizc him. but
N vas stubborn and when
L. wanted to 90 u Mildred's be
VcnD there.
Pamela resOrted to an attempt to
make him jealous by accepting
Huck'S evCr-ready attentions. Of
late Huck had been up a blind al
ley as far as Mildred was concerned.
With Harold he had made all the
progress he needed but with Pa
mela he had been getting practically
nowhere until she decided to use
him 10 infame Stephen.
But it was neither Pamela nor
any Jealousy Of Huck that prevented
stephen from keeping his date with
Mildred At the last minute a hot
prospect had loOmed up on his bust
ness horizon and he dared not let
90 as he explained to her.
Mildred was as cheerful about It
As She could be- under the circum-
.tances. Stephen himself was ter
ribly disappointed. especially as he
was unable 10 suggest that they
make it the next day instead. He'd
promised to play golf with Pamela
JudSOn on Sunday.
You're coming down OIL Monday,
aren't you?" Stephen said just be-
lore they hung up. See you then"
Mildred could not pretend under
Comics sharp eyes that she was
not sorely disappointed over the
spoiling of her day.
why don't you call up Harold
and make a date with him?" Con-
ME asked. III bet nothing would
stand in hi way
Perhaps not Mildred agreed;
but he and Stephen are different
in that respect. Stephen can't af-
tord to do as ne pleases."

morrow"
Mildred shook her h d. but later,
when she was putting the sand
wiches in the refrigerator, it came
o her that she might as well see
Harold if she could and have the
talk that her mother accident had
put off.
She reached him at the hotel just
as he was leaving for Westminster.
He was "tickled pink" he said, to
stop for her.
Mildred put on the red Deret
again, but she left the sandwiches
in the refrigerator. Harold and pic
nicking didn't seem to harmonic in
her mind
His appearance, when he came
for her. confirmed her opinion He
vas SalloW and unWholesome. like a
creature too long denied the aun-
light.
Mildred had not seen him for
several days and even in that short
space Oi time he had changed But
she said nothing to him in a per-
sonal way until they we're out Of
the Manhattan traffic and he could
drive with less concentration.
But WheE she did break through
her silence to the subject she wanted
to discuss she wasted no words.
You'd better tell me what's on
your mind, Harold, for 1 can see
that whatever it is it's too big
burden for you to carry alone"
Il wish you'd not try to pump
me, Mildred" he returned impa-
ii .ntly.
1 don't intend to pump YOU"
she answered quietly. L just mean
to ask you few direct questions.
It isn't necessary for you to tell
me you are in trouble. Any one
can see that"
Well, fire away, if YOU must;
but I don't promise to answer"
You can tell me one thing. Is
there any reason why you can't
tell me everything? A real reason.
l mean. or do you refuse simply
because YOU don't care to discuss
your affairs with me?"
HAROLD took time to weigh her
Il Il question before replying to it.
Then his words came in a rush.
Il can't clam with you. Mildred"
he said. You're the only person
in the world who cares a damn
about me. But I can't tell you
anything more, so please don't ask
me-"
Mildred drew in long breath.
Il see she said slowly: there is
something or some one who
has a Silencer on you. And there
IS nothing, nothing at all that 1
can do to help you?"
You can lend me moral cour-
nge,' Harold told her eagerly. 1T
does me good just to be with you,
yet you don't trust me-"
Don't say that. You couldn't
help me even if told you every
thing, so what's the use
Perhaps, if you knew that I can
guess who is at the bottom of
this :" She paused and Harold
flashed her a quick, uneasy glance.
That it is Huck Connor," she went
on steadily, you would tell me
more"
Harold paled even beneath his
unhealthy pallor. He started two
or three times to speak and each
time stopped himself. Finally:
Well" he admitted, II am worried
about Huck. He-he'S paying too
much attention to Pamela"
oh" Mildred breathed easier.
She believed that Pamela was bet
ter able to take care OF herself than
her young brother was.
This past week" Harold vent on,
you've been away from the hotel,
of course, else you'd have known
about it. They've been everywhere

TOM MAUzEY IS
 SERIOUSLY ILL;
 LITTLE HOPE HELD

Word that Tom A. Mauzey, who went south for treatment three months ago, was not expected to live but few days, has been re- ceived by Mrs. E. o. Decker. The message was from relatives in sHillsboro, Oregon, where MT. Mau- zey is at present.
 Mrs. Decker, who is a clos S e friend, accompanied Mauzey to Seattle, where he tried to enter the Swedish Hospital to receive treatment for a throat trouble that has been annoying him for some time, but it was not thought seri- ous. After an examination the doctors would not take the case and. recommended specialist in Portland In Portland the doc tors pronounced MT. Mauzey's health in excellent condition for one of his age except the throat trouble. Treatment was received at Portland and in Hillsboro, but the condition slowly grew more serious and resisted all medical treatment.
 The cablegram telling of Mau- zey's condition stated that the surgeons would not attempt to op- crate as his condition was too low, but the thought in the wire was that if it were possible an opera

OFFICIAL SCORES IN

 SHOW JUNEAU WINNER

official scores received from Ketchikan. reveals that the local American Legion bowlers won the recent telegraphic tournament by S3 pins instead of having lost it by 20 pins as was indicated by the telegraphic scores receiv- ed by the local post. This was made known today by a state ment in the local organization s post paper, Slams and Salutes. "
 The official scores are given as follows: Juneau 12.6S4, Ketchi- kan 12,601. The telegraphic re- ports gave the totals as being Juneau 12,6S4, Ketchikan, 12,- 704. Fifteen games were bowled. The local post is now leading botl Anchorage and Ketchikan ir 6 tAree-cornered tourney.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1929-02-14

In the Anchorage games, Fair banks won 34 to : and 46 to 12 They next trimmed Seward B to 22 and 40 to II. As both Seward and Anchorage had previously de- faated Cordova High School the claim of Fairbanks to the western and interior title is without a flaw.
 The title series for the local conference championship Is still up in the air. Petersburg had lit tie difficulty in defeating Ketehi- kan for the southern title. But up to today, no arrangements had been made between it and Juneau for the conference classic. Petersburg wants Juneau to go to Wrangell as it did last year. The local school authorities have made a counter proposition seeking to stage the series here. It has been four years since one was played on the local flOOr. Last year the local team went to Wran- gell at some expense of both time and money to itself. These things have led the local school to insist on Petersburg coming here. So far Petersburg hasn't replied to the proposal.
 If Juneau wins the title the Fair banks offer will be seriously con. sidered, it was said. If Peters burg wins, local hoop fans would like to see that team make the trip. And the winners right to the high school championship of Alaska would be clearly establish ed.
