headed across for the Islands.
He found the right channel without
difficulty and nosed down through it to
the island of dead pines. At his hail
the breed came out to the beach. Curt
explained, told him to get in, and
showed off.
On the way back he suggested, What
d'you say, friend-let's bury what hap
pened this evening""
The breed seemed to have been watt

blazed out: wat beezness did you got

well no, but she wasn't yours either,
friend" Curt pointed out. He added
patiently: Nov let me show you some
thing. Suppose my partner and hadn't

reported you to the Yellowstripes. Soon
or late they'd have got you. This coun-
try isn't big enough to hold you or any
body else that they really go after. II
you look at this right, we saved you
from-well, the penalty for what you
tried is-hanging."
The ugly word made the man jerk.
In the dark Curt could feel the man
glaring at him with an animalish hat
red. He kept an eye on the fellow and
loosened the automatic in his pocket.
From experience with that sort, he
knew he had made q vicious enemy.

on the block.
He wanted a talk with Paxton, for
the guilelesS old fellow was a mine OF
information. He was familiar with
everybody at Russian Lake, knew every
river and range between there and the
Yukon. The KloSoheeS kept all other
whites out Of the Lilluars, but kindly
old John ran his fur path unmolested.
His tent was pitched close to the
canoe pier, and his eight sleek huskies
were chained along the landwash there,
each staked separately, each with its
cool burrow dug into the turf. Instead
Of letting his dogs starve through the
Summer as others did, he kept a gill
net anchored near the islets and caught
fish for his team every day.
Don't git up for me-" he bade Curt.
II jist stepped over to say they's goin
to be leetle potlatch at my camp in
about 20 minits. Ralph an Sonya an
Father Lesperance an others'n be there,
an hgered you b'ys might like to jim

Curt accepted eagerly. That camp
fire, where he would meet people and
learn things, was an opportunity made
| to order. And he would get to see
Sonya Nichols again, last time prob
ably. since she was leaving the next
day.
Old John went back to his camp.
While Paul busted himself making a
spruce-tip mattress for their sleeping
pokeS, Curt leaned against the cache
sapling and looked out upon the dark
lake, not thinking about his hunt for

her head as she read him the riot act.

me shoot him."

Slipping his flash and automatic into
his pocket, he stepped down to the

Curtis patience snapped. He stopped
padding, tapped on the gunwale.
"See here. you. II you try any rife
talk with my partner or me, you'd bet
ter make your first shot good! Hug
your grudge If you want to, but If I
catch you as much as looking cross
eyed at that girl again, you'll be the
one to get cached under pile Of rocks,
and I don't mean maybe"
They skirled on ashore With low
sinister oath by way of good-by the
breed stalked off into the dark.
Curt went up To the tent, where Paul
was tuning his guitar. Taking can Of
cigarettes and a box of chocolate
squares as their contribution, they step
ped out the path To old Johns "glt-
togither."
The company had already gathered.
Curt pulled e log. close to the packing
box for himself and Paul, and sat down,
trying to be as inconspicuous as possible
so that he could watch and listen.
Somebody In that company might be
Igor Karakhan's contact man. A word,
a glance. a stray little slip might give
him a clue.
He glanced now and then at Sonya,
who sat near him. with the freight
shining in her clear eyes and the glow
Of 1t tangled In her hair. She had
looked up and nodded when he and
Paul came, but she did not speak, and
he believed that she had cast him into

word for the Leninists.
With no factual reason for thinking
so Curt told himself that Sonya Nichols
had known stormy experiences In her
life, experiences which had left their
mark on her. They had given her
maturity and strength Of character.
but they had robbed her Of any light
ness Of heart.
The question Of her nationality still
troubled him, and he determined to
settle 1t once and for all. Reaching
ror Paul's guitar, he plucked a chord or
two and then started O. VOlga f0lkSOng,
the only Russian piece he knew. Heads
began swaying, moccasins tapping.
Watching Sonya. Curt saw that the old
melody had caught her, too. lie met
her eye, smiled at her, nodded, and
she began singing softly. AS he listened
to the strange words which came SO
naturally from her lips, Curtis last

was!

apology.

TRAINS KEEPING
APACE OF AUTO
Vast Improvement Made in
Last Few Years.

BIZ Times Special
MONTREAL, April 13.-Although
the average man on the street keeps
himself acquainted with the i'm
provements in design and perform
ance of automobiles, few recognize
the Announcements that have been
made by passenger train locomotives
during recent years.
Only a few years ago, it was
necessary to change locomotives on
passenger trains every 100 or $50
miles, but today there are locomo-
tives hauling main line passenger
trains on the Canadian National
Railways that have continuous runs
as high as 300 miles.
This run is across the prairies
from Winnipeg to Edmonton. In
eastern Canada the longest haul for
a passenger locomotive is Sill miles,
the run being from Montreal to
Sarnia, Ontario
These improvements have been
brought about by changes in de-
sign and the use of steel alloys in
wearing parts, mechanical lubrica-
ton of cylinders and valves, the
use of grease instead of oil in lubri-
eating all wearing surfaces, the in
PRODUCTION of super-heaters to in
crease steam pressure and of auXil-
larry engines, known as boosters, to
increase power, without adding

connective.

Tract of Untouched Prairie Was

MANCHESTER, Ia, April 13.-Al-
though Iowa is comparatively
young state, there exists in the
state only one stable tract of
virgin prairie land. All the rest,
at some time. has been turned
over by the pillow.
This tract of untouched, prairie
is owned by Charles G. Barry, II,
retired farmer here. And al
though he owns forty additional
acres of some of the most fertile
land in Iowa, his eighty-acre plot of
prairie land is priced most of all.
The land was purchased by
Barry's father from the federal
government in 1856 for SIPS an
acre. Barry still possesses the
original grant, sheepskin deed
bearing the signature of President
James Buchanan.
The prairie is tillable and high
ly fertile, but never was cultivated
because it was located a mile dis
tant from the remainder of the
farm, said Barry.

CHICAGO, April 13.-The Old
Stone Age was not so stony as it
often is pictured. A French pre-
historian has discovered that crude
stone weapons Of one of the earlv

In the Acheulian culture, which
tourished in Europe over 100000

improved weapons, compared to the
still earlier Chellean men. The
