HEAVY SALMON RUN LIKELY AT
 PORT ALTHORP
Funter Bay Pack May Ex- ceed Normal, Captain
 Williams Says

Salmon are reported to be ap- bearing now around Port Althorp in quantities indicative of a heavy run in the immediate future, ac : cording to Capt. David Williams of the cannery tender Lincoln, which came here last evening for repairs to machinery. About 10000 cases of fish have been packed to date by the Alaska Pacific Salmon Cor roration at Funter Bay. This quan- tity is somewhat below normal for this time in July but the output is expected to attain, possibly ex- ceed, usual proportions before tn end of the season.
 The Lincoln, which is of 41 net tons and which carries crew of five, will be ready to return to Funter Bay tomorrow.
 T must be back as soon as pos sible,' said Capt. Williams, flor fish in large schools are likely to make their appearance at any moment"

l DAGGER D
bv Mary DahAberu

SYNOPSIS: Dagger Marley, high-spifited young niece of a Texas rancher, hears shots acrcss the Rio Grande while she is inspecting her uncIe's fences. Pushing her horse through the shallow river she rides fcarlessly into a hail of bullets to rescue an American who is fleeing from a band of Mexican insurgents. Knowing the leader of the guerriIlas, she argues him into releasing the American, Blaine Howard, who says he has been a newspaper correspondent with Villas army. Dagger is impressed by How ards self assurance and non- chalance, while he admires her courage and spirit. As they talk on the river bank, a cavalcade approaches from the ranch in search of Dagger, having heard the shooting. In the lead is Dick Yelling, famous Eng fish pclo player until he lost an arm, and now foreman of the ranch. It develops that Howard also has been a polo player and knows of Yelling.

Certainly she was no ordinary child fof the plains.
 You like the Blue Boy?" he asked.
 T love him! I sent all the way to New York for him"
 "Someday you'll travel" Howard said. Perhaps you'll come East, and see my collection"
 Perhaps we can persuade MT. Howard to stay while with us, y suggested Yelling.
 Shore" Marley assented. "Ad- mire to have yew, sir"
 I'm afraid l." Howard checked as he perceived the pleading light in Dagger's eyes-'yes, I'd like to stay a few days, if I may"
 That will be wonderful" sighed the girl. You've been places, haven't you? You know what the world is like-out there"
 Marley poured four glasses of the oily spirits-three sizeable ones, Howard observed, and one half as full. This last he extended to Dag ger.
 Wore good health, sir" said the old ranchman, lowing to Howard.
 Hear, hear assented Yelling.
 MT Howard" added Dagger, and tossed off her portion without blinking.
 Howard suspended his own drink.
 Say, that-thats whiskey."
 Yelling smiled, and old Marley remarked dryly.

Wm Lords of a China Toy With 8
 Bombing Planes

(Contlnueo rom Page One) and freight traffic off the tracks
 Now the craze has shifted to air. planes. Magazine writers who spent week or two in a few coast citie,
 nd then go home to record thei impressions, say that China is be- coming air-minded But those who have been here longer say that this is true only of the generals. Civil ians have no use for the contrap- tions which shower destruction upon them.
 Bombing raids have been made on walled towns and cities in Ho- nan, Shantung and Kwantung prov inces where much of the fighting in this years civil war took place Hundreds of homes were demol- ished and many non-combatants killed and wounded. Both the Nan king forces and the northern reb- els under Governor Yen Hsi-Shan and Marshal Feng Yu-Hsiang staged raids.
 The appearance of the airplane in Chinese warfare has been sud den. A year ago Nanking had only a few observation planes in it's service and not rebel general in the whole country had bomber. Purchases of the bombers followed of commercial aviation last summer.
 One reason for the use of planes can be found in the experiences of the Chinese in the dispute with Russia last fall. Soviet machines in Manchuria routed Marshal Chang Hseuh-Liang's best troops without the aid of infantry or artillery.

lighter by the sun, his blue eyes vivid against the tan, the hardness of his expression minimized by a mouth as tender as a woman's.
 What mischief have you been up to, Dagger?' he hailed. We heard shots"
 Jose Martinez and. bunch of Villistas were chasing MT. Howard here, Dick That was all"
 "All?" There was irritation in Wellings tone. If I catch Jose
 I'm afraid I'm responsible for the whole business" interposcd Howard
 Yelling glanced at him keenly.
 Been smuggling?'
 "Oh, no,' the girl spoke up. MT Howard is a newspaper correspon- dent, and Rancho wouldn't let him go-'fraid he'd give away their border connections
 And our friend Jose would have had me cold, if this little lady hadn't appeared amended How ard.
 "I've promised MT. Howard some poio,e said Dagger. Couldn't we accommodate him?'
 Weliing surveyed Towards rangy horseman's. figure. Play, do you?'
 "A bit"
 "Ah! Any particular club?"
 ''Meadowbrook, when I'm home.
 The Englishman stiffened in his saddle.
 Are you Blaine Howard, sir?"
 Guilty" admitted Howard.
 "You-" Yelling broke off his remark, then continued with a slight flush: You're the nine-goal No. 2, aren't you?"
 q used to be-" corrected Howard. "I haven't played much lately"
 Yelling seemed about to speak again, and again checked himself
 Heard of you, of course" he said finally, fiddling with his bridle But it's odd to find you way down here"
 And who found him?" crowcd Dagger. "He knew who you were as soon as I mentioned you"
 Welling's flush deepened.
 That's m old story he demur- red. II don't think we ever met MT. Howard-But forgive my rude ness. You must feel like bite. ,
 He. waved the cayalcade for ward.
 How'd you happen to be in Mexico?' he added.
 And this time it seemed to Dag ger as if it was Howard who stiff fened slightly.
 "Oh, got tired of civilization" he said, and a pal of mine offered me this chance to see how the Greasers fight. But I'm for France, now"
 A big, stoop-shouldered old man, whose leathery features were adorn- ed by a ragged, walrus .moustache, stood in the doorway as the cayal- cade approached the ranch house with Dagger in the van.
 What yew been up to, Dagger?'' he demanded. We heard shootin' over by the river"
 Climb down, Uncle Jim," she re- torted airily. T heard shooting and talked Jose Martinez out of work ing the ley fuga on this gentleman here, MT, Howard"
