FINAL INSTALLMENT

Roddy ran down through the
Morgan grounds, into the river
meadow. Then he stood still a
moment, thinking, his clenched
hand at his chin.
He remembered Major Lomax
Lomax! He started. The major
was the man! He loved Nancy
He had always petted Nancy.
There was a light in the study
window; he knocked at the side
door. How long the old man was
in coming!
Then the door opened. The lit
tie old man stood there in his shirt
sleeves, his eyes peering out OF
their creases.
"I've got to see you, major, at
once-alone!!' he painted.
The major closed the door de-
liberatefy. Come in here.
There's no one about-Angie's gone
to bed"
"Sit down. Rod. Whats
wrong? Out with it"-he smiled
grimly-'honest confessions good
for the soul"
Il haven't come to confess any
thing" said Roddy, with a dry
throat, "I've come to- ask you to do
me a favor, the greatest favor! To
be my second; I've challenged
Richard Morgan to fight me to-
night-out on his own lawn-to
the DEATH"
"What!"
Morgan has insulted my sister
with a secret marriage, he's drag
ged her name in the dirt, and I've
challenged him to fight-now, to-
night"
"a secret marriage? What the
deuce d'you mean?'
What | say! He did it and
backed out-because Pm a rotter.
He's ashamed to marry my sister.
He's insulted Nancy Virginia.
I've challenged him. He's accept
ed, he's got to fight"
The old man got up and began
to walk about the room. "Tve
known Dick Morgan all his life
there's something w~rong-Nancy's
been trying to hide something tic
save somebody. I've seen it," he
stopped short. "Rod Gordon:
you're the niger in the woodpile!'
he shouted.
eft doesn't matter what / am. ]
am not here to answer questions!'
Roddy replied fiercely. "You
know my sister, I'm defending her
honor, Pm ready to die for it. Will
you stand by me now, or won't
you? That's the question:
The old man drew a long breath.
"I will!'
There was a moment of silence.
"I'm an old man. said the ma
ior, this is illegal. Who's his
second? The cartel should be
properly delivered. You could
fight tomorrow at shutdown. He
has the choice of the weapons, the
place, and the hour"
"It's all fixed-I won't wait un-
til tomorrow" Roddy's breath
came in short gasps and his eyes
blazed, "he'll have a second when
we get there; he's chosen pistols;
the time is now, the place, his own
lawn-he'll die there or l will.
please God, tonight"
The major thought a moment,
Then he brought out a polished
wood box.
"Duelling pistols, Rod, Eve had
'em years. Maybe they'll come in
handy
Roddy nodded, his white face
drawn."I'll use anything he's got,'
he said shortly, "come major
It's time-the moons right"
Bully for you'll" the major
chuckled. His fierce old sou
scented the smoke of battle.
They took the short cut to thu
Morgan house. Two figures wer'
standing on the steps.

OIL IS USED AS, FUEL
 ' BY ESKIMOS

After four years of life spent al Point Barrow, where he and his wife were engaged in teaching sch ool, J.R. Trindle is on his way tc join Mrs. Trindle and daughter al Seattle. Accompanying him is his young son Joseph, says the Seward Gateway.
 Natives Comfortable
 The natives at Point Barrow, be- lieves MT, Trindle, are well housed and will be comfortably provided during the winter. The fuel situa- tion has been largely solved by use of frozen oil" pitch-like sub stance obtained from neighboring oil seepages. A business has sprung up among the tribe in the handling of this oil, the more enterprising natives transporting the stuff by the sackful to the nearby beaches, from which point it is later taken to Point Barrow where it is put on the market. It makes ready and suffic- tent fire and is coming into general use by the native residents.
 MT. Trindle also spoke of the coal deposits about 60 miles from Bar row and which he feels confident will in course of time be made avail able and practicable for native use.
 The fur catch the past two sea- sons has not come up to hopes, but a better price is recognized, which with natural sources of supplies meet local needs.
 Mir. Trindle hasn't definite plans for the immediate future, excepting that he will locate at least tempor- arily in Seattle, where Joe will en- ter the public school, already being attended by his sister.

Eskimo Burial Customs Found
 To Be Queer

Burial of a late Eskimo family head, in the country south of Nor ton Sound, proves of considerable economic loss to surviving relatives for canoes, paddles, guns, tools, pots and pans go with him to the grave
 It is figured that the departed will need the implements in the world to come, and that those who are left behind will find it much easier task to acquire new equipment than would the departed.
 At Tanunak, on Nelson Island, there is no difficulty in distinguish ing the graves of departed women from those of their mates as the graves are decorated exclusively with pots, kettles, pans, ladies, and such household utensils and kitchen equipment.
 These odd customs, and many oth- CTS, are described in pamphlet called "Mortuary Customs of Eski- mos," reprinted from the Scientific American Monthly, and authored by Clark M. Garber, former superin- tendent of Eskimo and Indian schools in Interior Alaska for the Bureau of Education. A copy of the interest ing article, bearing the authors au- tograph has been forwarded to the Seward Gateway.
 Some of the western tribes, writes and pictures MT. Garber, bury their dead deep in the ground and roll over the top of the grave heavy stones to guard the grave against predatory animals.
 Others 'bury" departed tribesmen on the surface of the ground or on elevated stands, making the bodies easy prey to ravenous dogs and wolves.
 Professor Garber's review is a val uable contribution to the lives and customs of the Eskimo, and pictures in simple manner the tense drama of life and death, where the hope lessly ill and insane, were, with their own connivance and non-re- sistance, put to death so that the evil spirits may be driven from the temple from which they had driven the spirits of light

TO GET SIGHT
 OF HISTORIC
 GOLD VESSEL

Raised from the bottom of the ses after reposing there for thirty-one years, the historic old steamship Is- lander is about to take one last cruise.
 Frank Curtis, the Seattle mar who made engineering history by harnessing the tides so that they lifted the wreck from depth o1 365 feet, disclosed this when he an nounced that what is left of the ill fated ship is to be lowed to Seattle for exhibition purposes, according to a report in the Seattle Post-In- telligencer.
 The voyage will really be second salvaging venture. First they sal vaged the wreck from the depths and now they hope to salvage some of the deficit they incurred, because the feat didn't prove the financial success they had expected.
 ''It was an engineering triumph , Curtis observed, "but as far as money is concerned it was a com plete failure. By sluicing the 900 tons of shells and debris that we removed from the Islander, approx imately $4O,0OO in gold was recov- ered-but that didn't begin to reim- purse us for what we spent"
 Nevertheless Curtis is anything but displeased with the outcome of the project to which he devoted two summers.
 q proved it could be done," he commented, land now I'd like to try my hand at something a little more difficult. With the experience I gained on this job I'd be ready to take on ship that was in 500 or even 800 feet of water-I believe could bring her up all right"
