Chapter 3 SHTVE FRANKS MISSION

For a moment the knowledge she was being followed dismayed Enid Howard as she surveyed her dis nal surroundings. On the dim ly lighted desolate street there was no one to whom she could turn for help.
 She had told Phil Martin she could take care of herself and she found new courage as she took the msnaclng pistol from her pocket and gripped it tightly in her right hand. Then she broke into a run. "Aw, can de marathon stuff a male voice called in a hoarse and slightly breathless tone from be- hind her. T ain't goin' to hurt youse, Miss Howard. I just got a message for youse.'
 The sound of her name both startled her and brought her re- lief. She stopped abruptly and wl1irled around but, still on her guard, she made no attempt to dis guise the fact that a very service able little automatic was clasped

REV. r. E. BAUER GIVES ADDRESS BEFORE DOUGLAS
 Pr. A. ON ALASKA

Alaska was Rev. P. E. Bauers subject of address last night be- fore the Douglas Pr. A.
 According to Rev. Bauer, people in the states are densely ignorant about Alaska. Alaska. which means great land" in Russian, with its 591 00O square miles, is equal to one-fifth the size of the United States, he said.
 Alaska, in spite of Robert Serv- ices poem, The Land That God Forgot is great rich empire, ," declared Rev. Bauer. "SiX hundred millions in minerals have been taken from this northern soil. Coal is a valuable product. The fishing industry has produced 0O000,000 since 1880."
 Rev. Bauer said that the scenic beauties of Alaska are more won- derful than anywhere else in the world. Resurrection Bay surpas- ses anything in Norway and is the most beautiful thing on the face of Gods earth. Los Angeles, with like wonders, by means of advertis- ing exploit them in week.
 Nome, where Rev. Bauer spent several years, is unique in every respect, he said. He believes he had more fun there than anywhere he has ever been l During the course of his talk, Rev. Bauer displayed Alaskan worsk of art-baby eskimo shoes

7z 1H BIG SHOT " .bg FRANK L. PACKARD

gave a little gasp that mingled surprise and dismay, as she stared after him. He had merely dropped the folded piece of wrapping paper on the sidewalk at her feet. She had no choice now but to pick it up.
 She restored her automatic to the handbag, and picking up the paper, placed that also in the bag. She had no doubt that the brown paper wrapper contained the pho- tograph of the Big Shot that Phil Martin had said Shive Frank was to give him tonight.
 What should she do? Phil Mar tin was undoubtedly still at the Gcndola. But she most certainly did not relish the idea of going back there to him now-to invite the gaze of every eye and the com ment of every tongue.
 It wasn't a matter of life or death she told herself. It wasn't anything that could not wait until tomorrow-S -Shive Frank had inn piled that much himself. She would mail it to Phil Martin, in the morning. She did not, of course, know where he lived; he had the advantage of her in that particular she smiled little icily-but the Herald Star was his business ad- dress, and mail would reach him there.
 She started on along the street. but she walked slowly now, thinking with her eyes on the figure of Shive Frank, whom she could still see hurrying down the street ahead of her.
 She turned her head suddenly. A car behind her had swung around the corner from Third avenue at a furious pace. It swept past her now with a roar, it's headlights streaming down the street. She stared after it in a startled, fas- cinated way.
 She followed it with her eyes. As 1t approached Second Avenue, it seemed to slow little and swcrve in toward the curb; and, as it swerved, it's headlights picked out a lone figure on the sidewalk. That

LETTERS RECEIVED | FROM FRANK BOYLE

Recent letters from Frank A. Boyle, now on a tour around the world, received here from Los An geles, indicated he would soon be on his way to Honolulu, there to spend a week before continuing to the Orient.
 From the Orient he expects to go to Europe, returning to the United States by way of the Atlantic Ocean. He has asked that his license plates be sent to Yonkers, New York. so it is presumed he will purchase a new automobile in the east before returning to Ju- neau late in the spring.

 "Shive Frank" she exclaimed.
 "Surel" he answered. His eyes fastened on the automatic in her hand, and a grin spread over his face. Say, wot dyouse know about dat A skirt wid rod! Youse're some baby, ain't youse?"
 Relief fled. His tones were as offensive as his words. His grin was repulsive. She drew back a Step.

 Mechanically, she could not have told why, she began hurrying her self. And then, with low-strain- ing cry, she stood still. Vicious spurts of flame cut through the semi darkness from the side of the car and now she could hear the crackle of a fusillade of shots. , It seemed to have happened in- simultaneously quicker than any thought.

elements which soothe and heal the infamed membranes and stop the ir- ritation, while the creosote goes on to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood, attacks the seat of the trouble and checks the growth of the germs.
 Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac. tory in the treatment of coughs from colds, bronchitis and minor forms of bronchial irritations, and is excellent for building up the system after colds or flu. Money refunded if not re- lieved after taking according to direc- tions. Ask your druggist. (ady.)
