A. J. BIOLOGIST STOPS OVERNIGHT
 ENROUTE, MAYO

Unexpected good weather for fly ing caused a sudden switch in plans of Livingston Wernecke, consulting geologist for the Alaska Juneau and general manager for the Tread well Yukon mine at Mayo, and he hopped off at noon today for Mayo in his red Bellanca Skyrocket with Pilot Charles Gropstis at the con- trols.

 "The interpretation by Vilhjalmur Stefansson of the inscription ap- pears to be correct" said Miss Hun ter, an Eskimo herself and con- nected with the Indian office here, but it is the dialect of the Colo yin Bay Eskimos and not those of the Kuskokwim.
 The inscription was carried in dispatch in The Empire yester- day.

 She laughed a little. She cried a little. Then she went to the man. tel and snatched down photograph of herse.. This she cut up into small jagged pieces. On several she wrote single word, which, when put together, read, T have gone all to pieces, missing you" Then on the mouth of her pictured face, she added the single word Yes"
 These pieces she quickly wrapped up in the box sent to her, and dis patched it by messenger, who ad- mitted that gentleman had given it to him, who was staying at the Inn in town.
 In another hour Caroline was not alone with her bright fire and holly. And Christmas Eve was what it should be. Stephen declared he had been too scared to come himself and sent the puzzle as a test-case. Then he kissed her.
