nice game, ana Colnet was IceAuB
coltish and gay. He let her come
quite near and then wheeled and
cantered off again.
When she came to the next open
space there was no sign Of the
pinto. She stopped and called
again. There was no sound. The
graceless Comet had gone light
heartedly about his own business,
and she must get back to the trail
and make her long way home.
The trail? The thought startled
her She made a turn, blankly
strange, and came suddenly on a
wall of rock.
1t rose sheer, two hundred feet
or more, directly in her path. She
turned and looked back uncertainty,
wondering where the first wrong
turning had been. Back of her was
the blank wall of cliff, and ahead
and on both sides stretched an end
less reiteration of trees and under
growth and rocks in bewilderlng
confusion.
There was no trail. She was lost.
Barry 1ounged comfortably i'll a
big chair and wondered why Petry
was so late He had been out IN
the blazing Tunipero all day, but
he knew that Petry had conveyed
Martha Larrabee in to Narston to
spend the day, and the efficient
Martha would not have allowed
any such late returning to her own
duties. Probably the old rascal had
invited himself to supper at Trails
End.
Barry was thinking of a shabby
little ranch house in small valley,
where girl was gallantly tackling
mans job. 1t was queer occu-
patton for a girl like Anne Gushing
to choose Usually girls as pretty
and dainty as Anne wanted any
thing that kept them manicured and
permanently waved.
For moment the fading sunset
lights played a curious trick on him.
He saw a shadowy figure in the
chair opposite him, with luminous
eyes and a curved mouth that
smiled at him. He was always
thinking OF Anne. And he had
known her only few short
weeks. f.
Steps came from the rear, heavy
ard hurried, and Petry's head ap-
pcared. "Ain't Miss Anne hcre?"
"No." Surprise turned quickly TO
apprehension. whats the natter:"
Il dunno exactly" Petry looked
increasingly uneasy. You see, l
brought Martha home, but Miss
Anne, she'd gone out somewhere for
a ride. That was two hours ago.
| OF course they amt any reason
why she shouldn't go off for a ride
and come home late, but it kinda

first? But she couldn't tell. What
ever happened, she didn't dare do
that +. She wondered what Barry
Duane would say if he knew.
She jumped up suddenly and gave
herself an impatient shake. She
would go out and saddle Comet, and
leave it miles behind.
For the first level half mile they
swept along in an exhilarating
burst of speed, but after that she
pulled the pinto down to a steadler
pace, and once turned to sleeper
trail he bent down to business and
climbed diligently.
This was the first time that she
had ridden for any great distance
alone, and there was a thrill III it..
She meant to make the same circle
that she and Barry had travelled on
their first ride together.
For over an hour she rode slowly.
Then she reined in and dismounted.
Comet watched her with liquid, un-
blinking eyes as she climbed out
to a boulder of red sandstone. 1t
made a natural seat.
For a long time she sat there.
The suns rays were slanting from!
the west. Little by little the warmth
and light were fading from her face
again. She jumped up abruptly.
She suddenly realized how low that
sun was. "Comet!" she called.
Come, boy, we're going home"
No answering whinny came to
her call. There was no sign OF the
pinto.
Anne stood very still for mo-
ment, telling herself that she wasn't
scared. 1t was her own fault; she
ought to have tiled him to -he
ground" as Petry called it. She
gave an anxious glance at those
slanting rays and turned quickly on
her way
A swaying of bushes on a lower
slope caught her eye, and the: it
an open space there was a fash Ct
glossy piebald hanks. She called
with all the strength of healthy
young lungs. The pinto caught the
sound, looked back and kesitatcl.

President Roosevelt has sent word

of patronage discrimination to be
specific before pressing their griev-

This, in effect, Is what Chairman
SABBATH Of Illinois is prepared to tell

the President.

But some of those who had COM

ana were described as "soreheads" by
the President indicated they were
not satisfied.
The feeling over patronage recent

interested that every courtesy be
shown members so they can comply

SABBATH said after his White House
visit. But patronage Is q compli-

course, the President Is desiriouS of
getting the greatest efficiency and
finds some Republicans he can trust.
THE President is willing to, hear

Grievances Asked.

asking them to state their grievances.
People would be amazed to see how
many have no complaints. OF course,
there are a few who feel they have
not been treated right, but believe
that will be Strengthened out all right.
But there is no intention Of the
President or any one responsible con-
nected with the administration to do
the wrong thing in this matter. The
President is very friendly to the COM
mittee. He doesn't approve Of dis
elimination or discourteous treatment
of members in any departments
Where there Is any complaint 1t will

Naugatuck, March 26--Rep. Will liam McDermott planned vigorous opposition today at the session of the general assembly to an unfav- orable committee report on the bill which would register the states approval of having the day conn memorating the death of Gen Cas- inner Pulaski be observed national ly.
 General Pulaski was Polish native who came to America and fought heroically for the United States in the Revolutionary war. He died Oct II, 1779 and Polish American groups are trying to have this date set aside for general ob. servance of his death. A measure to this effect is now before the pational congress, but this body is expected to be guided by action by the states.

ed out the party has supported MT. Schiller in the past.
 Joseph Nygren of Trowbridge Place has accepted the commit tees offer of, the nomination for warden, MT. Johnson stated.
 The Progressives will have hon. est, trustworthy, capable and re- spectable candidate for warden on their ticket in the person of MT. Nygren.
 A ticket has been picked by the committee but there are still a few uncertainties and MT. Johnson does not yet want to name who the committee favors for the off, ces of burgesses. Last year several persons nominated by the party, denied they had accepted and would not run for the office. It is probable MT. Johnson does not want to repeat this experience.
 MT. Nygren ran last fall for the office of United States congress- man onthe Independent Citizens ticket which the Progressives here supported. He Is we'll known To- cally and tn party feels they have put up a man thoroughly capable of handling the town affairs, MT. Johnson declared.
 He expressed interest in indi- cations there will be caucus fights inthe Democratic and Republican parties. The town committee of the Progressive party will set cau- GUS dates at their next meeting on Monday, April 1, he said.

Al COON TRIAL
FOR FRAUD IN
DRAKEESTATE

CHICAGO, Nov. 20 uN.S0.
The spirit of swashbuckling Sir
Francis Drake left the quarter
deck of his vessel today and
stalked across a Federal court
room as Al drab defendantS-a
butcher, a banker an engineer,
farmers, BARRIERS, doctors ana
bookkeepers-with a devout faith
in the existence OF the ouc.
cancers estate of from 5 TO ~
billion dollars, sat beside their
chief and heard the Government
begin their prosecution on charges
of using the mail to detraud.
The Government prosecutor
dashed cold water in the faces
of the defendants when he SAID
the prosecution would prove tnp
Drake estate is a myth, and tur'
ther declared the whole scheme
to collect millions from the es-
tate a deliberate fraud.
Farmer Called Baron"
But their spirits were revived
and their glances of dtsapproval
at their chief and the chief de-
fendant. Oscar M. Hartzell, SEN
fenced to serve 10 years in Leav'
enworth Penitentiary following a
similar trial in Sioux City, Iowa,
changed to loyalty and trust as
their attorney made his opening
statement to the jury.
Whatever may be the truth
about the Drake estate" he said
"these people not only believed
in it, almost as in q holy cause
but they put their own money
in it," .
Prosecutor Austin Hall told the
fury that in 1918 Hartzell, a for
mer Missouri farmer who came tc
be known as "the baron" In smart
London supper clubs, went to Eng
land with two others to investi
gate the alleged estate.
Money Raised in U. S.
In 1922, Mr.. Hall said, Hart
cell separated from his partners
and ''let it be known In this
country" that he had found q
direct lineal descendant Of Sil
Francis, son by former wife
not Lady Drake.
This forgotten son, Hartzel
represented, had been deprived
Of his just inheritance, which
had gone to a brother of Sil
Francis" said the prosecutor. HI
said Hartzell organized agents il
this country to obtain money fol
him to prosecute this claim. II
1888 Hartzell was deported from
England following an investiga
ton of his activities by Scotland
Yard authorities.
