Chapter 6 AN ULTINIATUM

Leon Morse's luxurious limousine plowed slowly up the steep grade through the mouth-deep sand of the makeshift road to come to a halt directly in front of small, plain boarded shack
 Alighting Morse left Douglas and Anne seated in the car. He mount ed the rickety steps and paused 9 moment on the threshold as he gazed in through the open door
 He took in the plain furnishings, the desk and drawing table, covered with blueprints, and the small safe. His eye finally settled on the tall man who sat at the desk, appar- ently unmindful of his presence. He was literally covered from head to foot with a thick sitting of yellow ish cement dust. His flannel shirt was open at the throat; his boots caked with dried mud protrudcd from beneath the desk where he sat figuring.
 Morse advanced step into the room This is MT. --er-- Glenn?' he asked as Scott Glenn glanced up,
 He nodded, and rose. "Is there anything I can do for you?"

trict, but apparently the tests made later were not encouraging, for work on this project was ciiscon-
 tinued early in the summer of
 1929. Prospecting for tin ore near Big Creek, in the Ruby district,
 was continued. but no recent de-
 tails regarding the results Of the search are available. The platinum metals came principally from plac- CTS in the Goodnews Bay district, at the mouth of the Kuskokwim River, and in the eastern part of Seward Peninsula. The finds in the Goodnews Bay district continue to be encouraging but not such as to justify any rush of prospectors.
 The mine of the Alaska Palladium
 Company on Kasaan. Peninsula, in Southeast Alaska, which for several years had been a large producer of platinum metals and the only
 one in which these metals were recovered from lodes, was closed
 throughout the year.

structlon A curious smile curved his lips. This great irrigation pro- ject, a river tunnelled through the mountains, hundreds of thousands of acres of barren sagebrush desert transformed into gardens and or chards and homes, represented an- ether pet scheme" another dream of lifetime" perhaps-When he turned back, he saw that Morse was watching him intently. Glenn made a gesture towards the window which gave on the valley and the mountain range beyond.
 "A bridge there will solve your problem" he said, without length ening your schedule appreciably." 7"
 The railroad magnate let himself back into his chair, blew leisurely ring of smoke, then looked straight at Glenn. His smile was full of meaning. Men come cheaper than bridges" he countered frankly, I've decided to buy you instead"
 There was a moments silence. The two men regarded each other attentively. Glenn's face whitened little under the sunburn; his fist closed involuntarily over the edge of the desk But an instant later, with a slight, noncommittal shrug, he seated himself again and lighted fresh cigar
 "They say every man has his own price," he admitted carelessly.
 "Yes, and-even woman too, for that matter" Morse observed with out interest.
 The younger man glanced quickly toward the Window-to the woman waiting in the automobile. The shrewd weathered lines about his mouth and eyes registered half contemptuous, half amused smile. He had known all along who the woman was, though he had not looked at her before.
 When he looked back at Morse, he saw that the financier was keenly annoyed at the connection he had made between, Every wo- man too-," and his lovely guest. She was lovely; nobody could deny that.

His caller did not answer at once but took out card and handed 1t to him. Glenn looked down at it and rnotioned to chair. Will you sit down, Mi" he paused to consult the card again, "Morse?"
 Morse took the chair indicated and drew it little closer to the one at the desk My business is of a distinctly private nature" he ob- served with suggestive glance at the man who stood at the window.
 Glenn turned to the assistant, a young engineer just out of college and pardonably susceptible, and smiled a little as he noted the lode star of his attention-the lady in the car The youth started when Glenn spoke to him but went out, closing the door behind him.
 From the muddle of drawings, blue prints and papers, Glenn un- earthed a box of cigars. His call CT accepted one, bit off the end and lighted it.
 "The most important business, as you know, MT. CT"
 Glenn" the younger man added
 Morse nodded Exactly, The most important business, as I was about to say, it that which requires the least publicity. In spite of the tons of propaganda and the bray ing of newspapers and reformers all the real business of the world governmental and otherwise, is car ried on behind closed doors"
 Glenn aimed puff of smoke al a knot-hole in the ceiling a few feet above his head, but made nc comment as Morse continued. "Tc get down to business, as you know this proposed line of road is pe' scheme of mine-a hobby if you vii the dream of lifetime. Rail road men. oldtimers at the game say it can't be built. but I believe ! can, and I mean to prove it."
 Morse glanced at him sharply He bent his long. lean body little forward from the waist, rapped hi knuckles impresively against th' desk. "As I said before, this lint of track is the dream of a lifetime and anything or anybody that-get' --ir,-my-way" He threw ou his hands in "a forceful, impatient gesture as of sweeping away ob- stacles.

Mrs. Charles Sey has donated a stove to the workshop and the Club voted the sum of S2O to start the enterprise off. All boys are vel come. The second project will be the putting of the fire-escape at the school in first-class condition, which includes a good coat of paint. Committee in charge of the job is composed of Mesdames Chas. Fox, Jack Sey and A. R.. Edwards. They will also present the school with rope ladders to be thrown from upper windows in case of fire.
 The yearly drive for money to carry out the Clubs plans will oc- cur Saturday, February eight. when bean supper followed by a card party and apron dance will be given. Mesdames w. A. Fleek, Jack Sey and Ed Bach, compose the committee in charge of prepar- ations for the affair.

 Angus Gair with 13 points, was high man in scoring for his team; w. Cashen scored 12, John Cashen, playing for the first time this year made six, and Pettygrove, Lundell and Guerin each made two.
 For the A. N. B. Wilson netted 8, Joseph 6 and T. Willis and J. Brady each made 4.

Morse shifted his chair a little so as to cut off the view toward the window and leaned forward My business is this. I want you in the employ of my corporation at-let us say double your present salary anc at once"
 But I don't work on a salary, Glenn objected mildly, "and any. way, I'm not free to consider an. other offer for some months tx come
 The other man shrugged. M, company is never niggardly abou terms. Say we treble your presen contract-even quadruple it? M! policy has always been that no pric' is too high to pay for anything vol want"
 That may be- Glenn agreed but unfortunately I am unde contract to finish this job in stat. cd time"
 Morse leaned closer to him. l" Idt not intend" he said slowly and em' phatically, that the irrigation pro ject shall ever be finished"
