of timed goods hid the rest
Of it.
Feeling like a fool for having
overlooked this simple answer to
their problem, Jerome cleared
the trap and opened it to dis
close a flight of ladder steps.
He struck a match and went
down Not only was the whole
building cellared, but the under
ground chamber was lighted and
ventilated by Sits of about an
inch between the masonry
blocks Of the foundation. These
apertures had been screened
from observation by the low
bushes that grew close up to the
building.
With a wary eye for snakes
and insects, Jerome took stock
of what the place contained.
There was a bin Of charcoal in
one corner and next it a row OF
small casks, of which the con-
tents filled the cellar with the
odor Of wine and spirits. Some
solid ..lelves held an array Of
naturalistS' specimen jars, many
Of which were filled. A long
bin held yams, and there was a
cement well full Of some vege"
table product, breadfruit, Je.
rome thought. On another shelf
were some hard cheeses.
From pegs overhead there
hung coils Of rope, wire Of diff
ferent sizes, and such articles Of
hardware as might be found in
a marine junk shop. There was
a short bench with a heavy iron
and a wooden wise. There were
kegs of galvanized nails and
spikes and an abundance Of
tools of different sorts, garden
ing ones, with axes, matches,
scythes, and Sickles. Also there
was a full equipment of kitchen
and house china and pottery and
implements.
jerome felt more than ever
like a fool. No textiles Of any
sort were with all this supply Of
things that they had needed.
Clothes, bedding. and the like,

would probably be T. the half
dozen big ornate chests.
The embarrassment Of riches
staggered him. He had always
been q natural craftsman and
he saw at once that q fairly
good ships carpenter had here
everything needed but the
material itself with which
to build a boat. He thought Of
the chicken houses that were
frame structures, and the wood
thickly painted and in good
condition. Such a workman as
himself could knock together
in a few days a Skiff or scow
that should ferry them safely to
the mainland. If he had only
thought of the possibility Of =
cellar or even made a thorough
search of the premises the day
of their arrival they should by
this time be ready to shove off.
Thoroughly disguised with
himself as a resourceful cast
away protector for a woman,
Jerome went back to the house.
A splashing in the pool and her
decorative leather surplice
thrown over a bush announced
Linda at her morning bath.
whats up now?" she
called. "You look peeved."
Jerome described his find.
Linda laughed. We'll be find
ing the keys to the chests tied
to their handles next, and

WED better leave the chests
alone until we get our sampan

Eyes, and stores and all Of the
forbidden fruit that's ripe. -"
That" he said emphatically,
remains taboo. Well have
done looting enough to get us

But what is it drops on the
ground?"
Its not going to-" Jerome
said positively. THE stem is
tough and heavy and will
ripen and rot on the tree, like
cherries or bananas"
And l.. I've got to see it
rot before my eyes. without
ever knowing what's it's like?"
1T may rot, but not before
your eyes. You keep out Of
that plantation. Next time you
might not get off so easily"

"All the same we must get
away. Our skiff has probably
been found with the hole in it
and reported, and we're thought
to have been drowned and
they've given us up. The
Dueno may have gone off not
to return for a long time.
Perhaps he's not a naturalist
at all or any other scientist,
but some sort of political or
criminal refugee who has gone
back to his country and been
collared and shot or thrown in
prison, or something"
Here was a fresh idea. Cali
right Jerome agreed. To-
morrow we'll make a final thor
ough search for tools and if we
can't find what we need I'll
crash the chests"
Jerome was the first to
awaken as soon as it grew
light. He did not go down to
the beach as usual but plunged
into the pool, then went to
the kitchen storehouse to make
some coffee.
This building was about ten
by twenty feet, built like the
house of stone walls with a
palm-thatch roof. The floor
was Of cement and as there was
no opening it had never &C.
CURED to Jerome that there
might be q cellar beneath.
Neither was there anything on

Needed Tools
The store room back Of the
kitchen was fairly well filled
with crates and boxes and bar
rels Of different supplies from
which the castaways had been
helping themselves. The coffee
in q glass jar had nearly run
out so Jerome went into the
store room where there was an
unopened sack of the beans in
one corner. He hauled this out
to get at it more easily and as
he did so the corner of a
trapdoor came in sight. A box

EARL TOWNSEND
IS DOOMED FOR
FUSION LEADER
East Side ReaItor May Be
Drafted as MayoraI
Candidate.
BY DICK MILLER
Times staff Writer

Political waters of Indianapolis
were cast today for third candi-
date for mayor when the new Peo-
pies Fusion Party unreeled its rod
and sought two thousand signatures
to a petition in order to place the
party on the ballots in the fall cleo
ton.
A volunteer group in the party is
circulating a petition from head
quarters, the City Trust Company,
108 East Washington street, to draft
Earl c. Townsend, 612O East Wash
ington, realtor and farmer, for
mayor.
The fusion body favors complete
municipal ownership with sufficient
earnings to eliminate all tax levy
on property.
Organization work in all pre-
cincts and wards is under way with
eleven ward organizations completed,
according to Todd Young and Earl
S. Garrett, in charge of headquar-
tiers.
Both Mr.. Young and Mr.. Garrett
formerly were active in Republican
politics.
They say that ward officials will
be selected on the basis of a Demo-
crat for each Republican, and vice
versa.
Supporters of Mr. Townsend in de-
claring favorable to his drafting to
head the ticket, say, I'VE are at the
end of our course in accepting prom
ises from men who are bound by
party obligations. The time for &C
ton is at hand. We want action.
Earl G. Townsend has shown that he
believes in action"
Efforts will be made to draft out
standing candidates for state legis-
lative Office and city council on the
fusion ticket.

9, were signed by Everett L. Burns,
