She nodded at MS interrogation
And they got out.
Next we find them in small
northwest Missouri village where
Furgerson had bought out restau-
rant, one of those small things
thick with tobacco smoke and some
times whiskey fumes. Ola, with her
piquant beauty, at the cash register
made hit with the masculine GUS
toners.
But this type of thing couldn't go
on forever, and the bomb broke
when the village sheriff, Henry
Hudson, started in to wrest some
thing besides promises and engaging
smiles from Ola.
The town was for the most part
colored, and there were but few
white people. Hudson was a good
looking colored man, with brave
heart, neat in attire and a good con-
versationalist.
Ola knew Jack was watching
him, knew he was jealous, and won
dered what she ought to do. She
eventually decided to request Hud-
son to leave her alone.
However, Fu-gerson was ignorant
OF the true situation and hired q
pair of henchmen to beat up Lie
officer The plot was laid in the
gambling parlors above the restau-
rant.
Ola must have looked through one
of those peepholes in the door at
the head of the stairs, for when
the job had been done, she stole to
the tree, walking over the frozen
road, where Hudson was tied and
cut the ropes.
1t was bitter cold night, with a
deep layer of snow and huge drifts.
The sheriff might have frozen to
death if Ola hadn't rescued him.
1--WE saved you," she said, "and
now want you to do something for
me. Leave this town. They've got
you tagged and your life's in
danger"
She returned to the restaurant
and was confronted by the infuri-
ated Furgerson. 1--WE heard about
your setting Hudson free because
you love him." he snarled, $50 come

tween ring growth and rainfall was
striking.
DR.. Douglass also found evidence
that all the trees had responded to
the climatic peculiarities of given
years in essentially the same manner.
That Is to say, the rings Of the date
of 1851 were, in all the trees exam
ined, unusually narrow while those
formed in 1868 and again in 1898
were unusually broad. Moreover,
the period, 1879-1884, as recorded in
the Arizona pines, was indicated by
group of rings so narrow that it
was easy to pick them out on old
StumpS where no measurements had
been taken.
Indeed, striking confirmation of
the readiness with which Identified
ton can be made was had in the
case of one stump which had been
cut many years. BY locating this
particular group of narrow rings on
it, which he easily did, DR.. Douglass
was able to designate the year when
the tree was felled, a date which
was verified by the owner of the land
who remembered the circumstances.
Other scientists have studied the
tree rings of the giant California
redwoods. At times it is believed
that these trees grew widely through
out the United States, but now there
are only few of them in single
section of the West.
DR.. Ellsworth Huntington, of Yale
University, counted the rings of these
great Sequoias. He examined the
rings in more than $50 trees, rings
in the stumps of 451 trees whose
dates of cutting were known. Some
of the trees were only few hun
dred years old when felled Nearly
hundred were close to two thou
sand years of age Three had lived
more than three thousand years,
while the rings of the oldest registered
3,210 years.
In commenting on the antiquity of
these venerable inhabitants of the
past, DR.. Huntington says: Huge as
the Sequoias are, their size is scarce
ly so wonderful as their age. A tree
that has lived five hundred years is
still in its early youth; one that has
rounded out one thousand summers
and winters is only in full maturity;
and old age, the three score years

An Undying Love Made Her Prisoner

She shook her head. They were
in their bedroom back of the res
taurant.
He said that he didn't believe her.
You're in love with that guy" he
expostulated, land I'm going to fix
you'll"
She did not protest when he seized
her roughly and pulled her up the
back steps. She was too much in
love with him to protest against
anything he did. Perhaps Ola had
waited too long to fall in love, then
again maybe it was her nature never
to lose her love for the first man
to win it. They speak of dogs be-
ing one-man dogs. So she must
have been a one-man woman.
Her blood chilled when she caught
a fleeting glimpse of his purpose.
But she did not cry out. Took it
calmly, with a hard line for a mouth,
and wide fearless Dyes. When he
had thrown her upon the bed and
crossed to the door, she uttered a
few simple words: Il don't know
why you're doing this, Jack. This
room is full of rats and bleakness.
It's no place for woman. Please
don't make me spend the night
here"
He laughed, then croaked like an
enormous bullfrog. Spend the night
here. Huh. You're going to stay
yearw
After that, he went out and
slammed the door.
For 365 days Ola stayed in that
room-a prisoner of love, suffering
alone, almost stark mad. There is
no telling how long it would have
gone on had not Furgerson been
shot and killed in a dice game.
They buried him before they
found Ola up there in her dungeon,
and she didn't know anything about
his death. True he had trusted no

LOS ANGELES, July 12, (P- Plans for erection of a plant on the coast of southern California for the extraction of gold, silver and other metals from ocean water was am nounced by Prof. Herschel c. Park CT, explorer, writer and former Columbia University faculty mem Der.
 An experimental station already has been established near Santa Monica, Professor Parker said, where a new chemical process for collecting metals long known to exist in sea water is said to have been proved of commercial value.
 Tt has been possible for many vars to take the gold from ocean water" he said, but this has been only an interesting laboratory ex- pertinent, owing to the expense in volved".
 Professor Parker estimated that 25,OOO tons of water can be treated daily, yielding $500 worth of gold.
 Professor Parker is widely known for his inventions, scientific experi- mental work and explorations on Mt. Mckinley in Alaska.

TESS AND LUCAS
TO DIRECT c. 0. P.
Party Heads Agree on Hus-
toms Successor and Execu-
tive Committee Chairman.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

The master minds of the Republican
party have determined on their pro-
gram of National Committee reorgsni-
cation. now that C'laudius H. Huston of
Tennessee has definitely stated he will
resign the national craftsmanship.
The program calls for the election of
eenator Simeon D. Fcss of Ohio as ma
tional chairman to succeed Mr. Huston
and the election Of Robert H. Lucas of
Kentucky. commissioner of internal
revenue. to be chairman of the Execu-
tive Committee of the Republican Ma
tional Committee.
Elections Tentative"
These elections are to be made ten
tatively" at a meeting Of the Executive
Committee on August z, called by Mr..
Huston yesterday. They are to be rati-
fed at a meeting of the full National
Committee at date to be determined
either before the Executive Committee
meets or at that meeting.
These decisions are the gist OF a
series of conferences held yesterday, in
which President Hoover, Postmaster
General Brown, Senator Watson of In
diana, Republican leader of the Senate:
Joseph r. Mutt of Ohio, treasurer of
the National Committee, and Walter
Newton, secretary to the President, all
had part at various times.
At first the proposal was made that
the Executive Committee, on August z,
content itself with electing Mr.. Lucas
as chairman of the Executive Commit
tee and leave the national chairman
ship open. There has been some oppo-
sition to Senator Fess taking the ma
tional Craftsmanship. But this proposal
was finally vetoed and it was deter
mined to go ahead and put Mr.. Fess in
Office, although Mr.. Lucas is to be the
executive head in charge of headquar-
tiers here.
Want Incident Closed.
1--WE want to get the Huston incident
behind us as fast as possible" was the
way one of the Republican leaders put
1t. Ito leave the national chairman
ship vacant would be merely to perpes-
uate the whole matter"
Senator Fess, who left yesterday to go
70 Springfield, Mass, to deliver an adj
dress, will go to New York and return
to Washington Sunday evening. He ex-
poets to leave here for Ohio on Monday.

Of Fowler and DR.. Souder"
Cloth expects also to confer with DR.
Souder before the gun and bullets are
taken to Chicago for study by Maj
Goddard The Bureau of Standards
scientist is temporarily out of the city.
Cloth and Talley devoted most of
yesterday to checking the abb story of
Campbell and his wife, Mrs. Ruth CAL
lahan Campbell. When the days work
was completed, the prosecutor said
had not been disproved.
Interview King Again.
The investigators had another inter-
view with Thomas A. King, scoutmaster,
of 1349 Harvard street, in order to make
sure that he could not be mistaken as
to the day and hour he shook hands
with Campbell when the latter brought
his step-son Edwin to Scout meeting
at Fourteenth street and Park road.
King showed records Of the meeting in
substantiation of his and Campbell's
statements that the meeting between
the two men took place at 1880 O'Clock
on the night Mary Baker was slain.
The officials also visited a house in
the 900 block of Hamilton street, where
Campbell asserts he spent about an
hour and q half after leaving his son
at the scout meeting. Mr.. and Mrs.
Roy Smith, with whom Campbell said
he visited on that occasion, were not at
the house last night, but it was learned
they had been there several months
before and had left for Arkansas.
Authorities of the Southern State have
been requested to locate the couple.
The prosecutor yesterday afternoon
verified from records of the Potomac
Electric Power Co. Mrs. Campbell'S
statement that she left work at FIVE
minutes after S o'clock on the after
noon of April IL. A visit to mems
wear store at Ninth street and Penn
sylvania avenue disclosed that Mrs.
Campbell bought boy scout belt there
about $50 o'clock on the same after
noon as she had claimed.
