MANY ATTEND DINNER GIVEN
 FOR PIONEERS
Motor Rides to Mendenhall Glacier Today and En-
 tertainment Program

Delegates to the Grand Igloo, Pioneers of Alaska, which conclud- ed it's business sessions last Fri day evening, were guests Saturday night at a dinner in I. o. O. F. hall. There was a large attendance of pioneers and their friends.
 Judge H. B. LeFevre was toast master. Among the speakers were Gov. George A. Parks, Mayor Thomas B. Judson, George J. Love, Grand Secretary of the Grand Igloo; Anthony J. Dimond, past Grand President of the Grand Igloo, and other members of the Pioneers order.
 Yesterday afternoon some of the Grand Igloo delegates were guests on motor rides to MendenhaH Gla- cier. The Glacier visit ended the entertainment program arranged for the visitors. Some of the delc- gates left for their homes on the mctorship Northland, which sailed south Saturday. Most of the oth- CT visiting delegates, except those who are members of the Legisla- ture, have passages on the steam ships Alameda or Northwestern.

Jimmie congratulated A dre y, who explained that their reason for keeping their engagement sec ret was that they did not wish Mrs. Netherton to feel that she was adding to Bills financial bur- den by living with him and there by delaying his marriage. Tt will take longer to pay the debt, and that is the big thing we are work ing and hoping for"
 Jimmie did not immediately re- ply. The girls quiet words carried conviction that she loved Bill Meth erton and that she knew Bill loved her.
 T am glad to know" he said. T will do all I can to help you. Had Marjorie, to your knowledge, an attachment?"
 Audrey hesitated. T do not think so. She has always been popular and has had many friends. If Bill was an old sweetheart, that was also true of other boys around here"
 T understand. Could you no. find out from Bill if there was any

shabby thing like that. He's quite poor but very proud. Following the war, in which he was wounded and distinguished himself, he was swindled out of his small holdings and settled here in what he calls his shack, after refusing a clerks job, which he said some one might need more than he did"
 Are Bill and Stirling on good terms?"
 Not particularly. Bill does not much care for him. Dickie does not try to make friends"
 Why did Bill want to see him that night? Stirling, according. to Richmond, was not expecting him, and has not spoken to him or heard from him since"
 DO you want me to ask Bill that?"
 "Yes-if you can without seem- ing unduly inquisitive! When we know that, and we know about the car, we shall get the whole thing into shape"

particular reason for his meeting Marjorie as he did? It is for his own sake. Both Bill and Marjorie seem to be holding something back, but if it could be shown that Bill loved you, it would clear things considerably"
 Jimmie could see, however, that for the doctor suddenly to an- nounce his engagement to another girl might suggest that he saw his danger and took the step to save himself. There was silence for a few minutes, broken finally when Audrey asked Jimmie if he did not think Green, the chauffeur guilty. Jimmie asked her reasons.
 Tt was shown that Green could have done it." she said. Janet Raynes, of whom he is fond, told one of our maids of his threats to .get even.'
 Jimmie told her that this was ncs evidence and might not have weight The important thing to be cleared up, he added, was the car that Ali Collett saw going toward the links and that Green saw empty against the garden fence.
 "A Morris two-seater?"
 "Yes-like Captain Stirling's Stirling says it is not his and he was on the way to Midgley Mocl at the time. Apparently he called to see some cousins, but according to Superintendent Richmond, thf time at which he got there does not preclude the possibility of il having been the car that Greer and Collett saw. What do you know about Stirling?"
 Audrey was silent for time. "l can't see Dickie Stirling doing 6

still worried about that empty car. Whoever drove it was not far away when the crime was commit ted and left soon after. To deter mine the driver was important.
 When Jimmie saw Richmond ne found him depressed and ranking under press criticism of his efforts. The story told by Vincent Blake had been verified as far as pos sible. That he could have com- mitted the crime was admitted, but this was true of Gresham or Green. The Superintendent, still believing Netherton and Marjorie guilty, explained that they were on their guard and no longer met.
 Jimmie did not tell him of Bills engagement to Audrey Winford. It was their secret and they must di- vulge it when they saw fit.
 Meanwhile the delay affected matrimonial plans. Evelyn told Jimmie that she and Duckworth would not wed until all the trou- bles were over. The singer, she said, had cancelled his engagements in the nearby theatre so as to avoid criticism and to be near her. Jim mic, talking with Audrey, learned that she had suggested to Bill that their engagement be announced and that they be married at once.
 "He said" her hesitancy yelled deep feeling. well, he was Bill. He said he would not drag me into trouble and put the engagement off until things cleared up"
 Perhaps he is right" Jimmie consoled. "As he sees it, it would be cowardly to proclaim it now"
 She had asked Bill about his meetings with Marjorie and his call on Stirling, and her voice fal- tered as she repeated his answer. We are not engaged now, Audrey. So you have no right to ask me. Trust me if you can"

The news did not come altogeth- CT as a surprise.

Netherton did love-he was engaged to marry Audrey, net Marjorie. Therefore he gained nothing by the death of Annabslle Querdling.
