LEGISLATURE TO HUSTLE WORK IN
 NEXT TWO DAYS
Members of Both Branches Will EndeavOr to Crash Through All Bills and Ad- jOurn Wednesday
BY GEORGE R, MORRIS. JR. United Press Stan Correspondent

(Unte0 Press StaH CorreSpohuch'J
 Hartford. Conn, May 16-(UP)- Members of both branches of the general assembly are bending every effort to cram the bulk of the re- maining bills through the legislative mill in two more legislative days. hoping that Wednesday afternoon will mark a recess. Many are still of the opinion May 20 will not see the end.
 The past week has seen the legss- lative machinery running at top speed with three afternoons of over- time. Bills not starred for action on the calendar have been acted upon under a blanket' suspension of the rules. Yet. despite the feeling that time Is precious, bills of import have been thoroughly threshed out upon the floors of the house and senate.
 Two cases of disagreeing action have taken place in the past 4S hours. Mrs Alice Russ amendment to the Meriden state school trustees bill. providing two of the trustees should be residents of Meriden or its vicinity, was rejected by small majority in the house. The amend ment was passed in the senate. The

LABOR FAILED TO GET THE PENSION
 BILL PUT OVER
Sudden Deaffi Of Charles J. Moore of Torringt0n ln- terrupted Battle That Might Have Succeeded
(By Democrat Stan ManD

Hartford, May 16th-Failure or the old age pension bill to pass as originally introduced in the legisla- ture was due largely, judging from comment heard both in the house and the senate, by the absence of the late Charles J. Moore of Tor rington. who as president of the Connecticut Federation of Labor, was doing considerable lobbying in support of the bill up to the time of his sudden and unexpected death. Considered the ablest lobbyist the Federation of Labor in Connecticut has ever had, Mir Moore had made great strides in winning support for the old age pension act.

CHAPTER v

| For space Jeems could not move
as he gazed at the crimson sky. His
home was In flames. This alone would
not have deadened him with horror.
Ills father was there to care for his
mother, a new home could be built,
the world did not end because house
burned But there were two fires
and the other. farther on, rejecting
Itself dimly and yet more somberly,
was the one that terrified him. II was
Hepsibah's fire talking to him through
the night,
Then~the choking thing In him gave
way, and as the power to act returned,
he saw Odd facing the lighted heavens
and In every muscle and line OF the
dogs rigid frame the Indian sign was
clearly written.
He set of at run down hill, and as
he ran bushes whipped at his face and
shadows gathered under his feet and
long arms OF gloom reached out from
among the trees to hold him back. He
could not come up with Odd. Like
two shadows In playful night, one
closely pursuing the other. they ran
until Jeems' breath began to break
from his lips In gasps, and at the end
OF a mile he fell back to walk. Odd
lessened his pace to his masters.
They climbed lower hill, and once
more Jeems could see the glow OF fire.
In the upper vault OF the sky 1t was
fading to ghostly pallor against the
sweeping arc OF the Milky Way.
They ran on, and the spirit OF hone
began to fight for a place In Jeems'
brain. This ray OF light gave life and
force to the arguments with which he
now made an effort to hold back the
grimmer thing. His home was burn
Ing. But 1t must be an accident.
nothing that should hll him with
fright. The other fire-ofr In Forbid
den valley-was no more than coin
cidence. probably confagration
started by careless Indian or a
white mans pipe.
He paused again to get his breath
and Odd stopped with him. His shay
Ky body was trembling with the pent-
up emotions of suspense and passion
which possessed him. when he caught
In the air the deadly poison to his nos
trils-the Indian smell. Jeems strup-
gled not to believe the evidence which
he saw, and told himself that II by
any chance there were Indians at his
home they were friends helping to
save what they could from the tragedy
OF the fire.
Out Of the silence Jeems heard a
sound which rose above the pounding
OF his heart. 1t was 80 far away, 40
indstlnct, that the stirring of the
leaves had kept 1t from his ears.
But Jeems had heard.

At him. Jeems stood for few mo-
ments with his arm about his mother.
Then he kissed her, and Catherine
watched him until he was lost to her
sight In the Big forest.
Jeems did not have the desire to
hunt, nor did Odd. UnexplaInable
impulses were pulling at them both.
Odds restlessness was unlike his mas
ter's. Whenever Jeems paused, the
dog turned and shifted the air OF their
trail, facing Forbidden valley In an
attitude OF suspicion and doubt Jeems
observed his companions enigmatic
actions. Odd was not giving the In
dian signal. 1t was as II something
without form or substance, a thing be-
wildering and unintelligible, lay be-
hind them.
They came to Lussans, nine miles
from their home. Since Lussan's de-
parture, the place had been aban-
doned. and In those five years the
wilderness had largely reclaimed what
man had taken from 1t. Jeems stood
where he had fought Paul Tache and
ghostly whispers crept about him In
the stiffness. Then came a feeling OF
dread, almost OF fear. He turned\back
TO the house and to the open, where
long ago he had stood with Toinette
and all her loneliness so near to him.
The sun had set and dusk was gath
ering over the land before he drew
himself away from the ghosts which
haunted Lussan's place. Night could
add nothing more to his gloom

On September morning some days
later, Jeems stood watching his uncle
~ he disappeared into the frost-tlnted
woods OF Forbidden valley. II seemed
to him that Hepsibahs suspicious and
guardianship OF the valley had become
greater with the growing news Of
French triumphs In the SOUTH which
10 positively assured their safety.
Only yesterday Tonteur had brought
the latest word from nieskau. The
German had been on the eve OF smash
Ing Sir William Johnson and his mob
OF C0lonials and Indians when his
messenger had left. BY this time the
event had probably happened, Jeems
thought. Yet his uncle was going into
Forbidden valley with a look In his
face which puzzled him.
Restlessness possessed Odd after
Hepsibah had gone. Passing years
were beginning to leave their mark
on the dog. He was growing
content to watch life with Jeems In
stead of ceaselessly pursuing it. He
was not old. and yet he was no longer
young. There remained one thing
which did not fail to stir In him the
tense fierceness OF his youth. This
was the Indian smell. He always told
Jeems when one OF their wilderness
visitors WAS near. sometimes many
minutes before the savage appeared
from the woods. And he never tired
OF watching Forbidden valley. In the
dawn he faced IT. At midday he dozed
with his half-closed eyes turned
toward It. In the evening he shifted
Its scents. Yet he did not 90 down
into the valley unless Jeems or Henri
WAS with him.
During the morning, Odds uneasi-
ness began to reflect Itself In Jeems.
Soon after noon. he left his work and
told his mother he was going In the
direction of Lussan's place. Cath
crime walked with him through the
young orchard and up the slope.
Never had she seemed more beautiful
to Jeems. His father was right-this
mother of his would always be a girl.
