Trent was standing it.
Trent wasn't in, but Miss Lake

"Oh, Lord! Is he mad too?"
Hes always mad. He wanted to

you wholeheartedly as a son-in-law.
but must say never thought you'd
stoop to this. At such time! Mary
will hear of it at the proper time"
Eddie listened until she was out of
breath and then hung up. And as he
hung up there came through the open
windows of the police station those
cries that herald the dawn of a new
day. 1t was the newsboys shouting the
arrival of the morning papers.
Ham Hamilton it was who, at two
in the morning. provided bail for both
of them. He had not seen the Morning
Globe at that time. But as he rode up
town on the subway with Eddie he
saw it, and his eyes popped and he
uttered cry that was heard above the
roar of the cars. He now looked at
Eddie, dumbfounded. with his mouth
open, and Eddie nodded weakly. At
the next station they shook hands.
You'll -er-b be at the office in the
morning?
Il don't think I'd better"
Perhaps not. " agreed Ham readily.

You'll find some kind of job"
Eddie rode uptown alone to the

eyeing Eddie leisurely. "Oh, he was

changed his mind again. He thought it
fine night for walk in the park"
Eddie loosened his hold on Miss
LaGrange's wrist and started on a
sprint toward Fifth Avenue. At Fifty
ninth Street he looked helplessly at the
many footpaths that radiated from
the main gate. He was about to pick
one at random when he saw Trent.
He was in the custody of policeman.

the young man reached him.

BEAR REFUGE AT AVIAN CREEK BRINGS MANY YACHT VISITORS

The Alaska Game Commission pa trol boat Marten with Executive Officer Frank Dufresne and Deputy Warden Howard Jensen aboard, was in Wrangell the first of the week.
 The bear refuge at Anan creek, MT. Dufresne said, is well stocked with black bear which are a pig attraction for yachting parties, as we'll as Alaskans. The bears can be watched from the board walk fishing for salmon on the opposite side of the creek, frequently not over } feet away.
 It is estimated there are 100 bears in a half mile of the board walk. They never come across the creek and spectators find the great est fascination in watching them in their natural habitat. The disciplin- ing of the cubs by the mother beais furnishes even more amusement and interest than the fishing exploits.
