of goings on-will be upon us

Davidge arrived here yesterday

ravishingly healthy with their
deep coats of tan.
Debbie Ethel Worthington,
accompanied by Emily Davis,
the daughter of Mrs, Archibald
H. Davis, left today for Miami.
When they planned to go, they
had firm intentions of doing
nothing more strenuous than
playing in the surf and loung-
ing at the Bath Club. I'VE
need to recuperate," they said.
They are stopping at "Bay
Terrace" cottage belonging
to Ethel's mother, Mrs. Ralph
Worthington. Also at the cot
tage are Mrs. Worthington's
sister and brother-in-law, Mr..

She leaned closer. Just tell me this
much. You're going on, on tomor-
row mornings train, aren't you?"
For the first time that morning,
Jack Hammond truly, smiled.
Eyes, Annie" he said. "You might
as we'll pass the word along. 1 guess
the secrets out"
You're right it's out!" agreed An
ME. She patted him on the shoulder
well, I'll be seeing YOU" Then with a
grandiloquent wave, she summoned
her followers from the doorway.
Hammond walked on, to the sting
OF fine rain against his face. The
smile had vanished; gloominess had
taken its place. Everything had look
ed so different down there in Seattle,
with Kay in his arms, and the secret
that he had promised his partner to
treasure flooding over liquor-loosened
lips.
Kay-the thought of her electrified
him. His brain suddenly shimmered
with thousand disconnected but glor-
ious memories; blurs and figures from
which only one emerged clearly. It
was that of Kay Joyce, golden-haired
Kay, with her blue eyes hypnotizing
him, her soft body against his as they
danced, or floating far away as all
the world became vague and dream
like. Kay tight in his arms until he
could see only the curve of her fore
head, and the uplift of her eyelashes.
Or leaning on her elbows beside him,

her hands crossed under her chin, her
tantalizing lips curved in a challeng-
ing smile. Then the soft touch of
her thigh against his as the music
started anew and they rose to the call
of the dance floor.
H stumbled and brought himself up
short, suddenly realizing that Seattle
was far away. This was Prince Ru-
pert, bleak in the grip of a winter
rain, yet burning with the gold fever.
A girl was coming down the steps;
she had hand to her throat, clutching
it as if seeking, by muscular power, to
overcome desire to sob. Her face
was bloodless; for an instant she look
ed at him, with hazel eyes in which
burned the fever of desperation. Then
bravely she Strengthened, and while
he flatened himself against the scar
red, plaster wall of the staircase,
went onward. In the glimpse of pass
ing Hammond could not help noticing
the spasmodic jerk of her otherwise
fine lips, the tenseness of her, the
expression of gauntness with which
she faced the drizzly square of out
side light. A moment more and she
was gone.

"Well, Prospector," she asked Cant
you say hello?"
Hammond looked up into the fea-
lures of a wrinkled person, valiantly
battling her age with thick foundation
cream, high rouge, mascaraed eyes
and a heavily lip-sticked mouth. Yet
it was sprightly face, blue eyes set
in crows'feet of humor and experience
and lips which life had hardened with
out leavin gthem grim.

are you?"
about the same as the last time
saw you-when we made the rush
together into Rouyn, in Quebec"
"That's right. Glad to see you a.
gain, Annie"
Thanks. That goes double, Pros
pector."
Silence followed. For an instant
Jack Hammond felt annoyed at this
interruption. Then he dismissed her;
it was only Around the World Annie,
who had made every Canadian gold
rush of the last twenty years. A
round the World Annie, with her lore
of frontier knowledge, her inevitable
thickness of paint and mascara and
garish clothes, her log cabin at the
edge of camp with its dance halls, il
licit drinks, its screaming phono-
graph
Living here, are you, Annie %
Hammond asked at last. Around the
world Annie Strengthened. An efful-
gent woman, with what might be call
ed an old-fashioned figure, she groom
ed a loose fold of dress and raised
a diamond-fingered hand to restrain
wisp of bleached hair, whiting with
the dampness of the incessant rain
Then, with a jerk of her head, she in
Dictated a group of dance hall girls
who stood in a nearby doorway, as
though they had been herded, all OF
them over-dressed.
Listen, Prospector" she asked
would I be chaperoning that gang OF
girls if I was living here in Prince
Rupert?"
"But where are you headed for?'
She grinned the wrinkles therefrom
creating deep creases in her face
enamel.
"I'm going where you're going
Sweetheart"
Hammond sighed.
Il suppose you were on this morn
mornings boat too"
Got on at Vancouver"
Hammond pursed his lips. He was
becoming more philosophical.
Il guess missed a lot on that
boat"
"Oh, you'll catch up with it ALL

it a secret?"
Soon a crowd had gathered about
him. Hammond fenced frantically
A big man, with a faint break OF
accent in his voice, poked hard-skin-
ned, hewed-out face close to that of
Hammond.
MY names Olson" he announced.
GIVE got map here-suppose you
point out the place to u.s."
Hammond pulled at his breath.
Maybe I'd BETTER" he agreed. Then
as Olson poked the map before him,
Didn't l see you on the boat from
Vancouver?"
"Yah, you saw me-" said Olson
"And lot of others"
"Why didn't you come to me then
I could have explained all this to you
maybe you wouldn't have been so
anxious about getting off here"
"You got off, didn't you?" asked
the man with the pack on his back.
"That was enough for me-" came an
other voice. Then short man, red
faced, and with an excitable manned,
edged forward.
"How about me? l saw the story
in Winnipeg paper and took plane
for Jasper Park. Then caught the
train up here"
"Yeh, and I came from Prince
George" cut in another member of the
crowd. Il thought we'd go in from
Alaska-around Wrangell."
Look here" asked Olson "you
didn't try to throw US off the trail,
getting off here at Prince Rupert ?"
Hammond spread his hands in ges-
ture of disgust and for moment sill
enced them.
"How in the world could l try to
throw you off when 1 didn't even
know you were on my trail? None of
you came near me on the boat"
"Yah" laughed Olson, chow could
We? You were in your cabin most
OF the time. Getting over that head
you must have had when you got a.
board down at Seattle. Some time you
had down there, yah?"
Hammond Strengthened. He raised
work-thickened hand and, removing
his hat, allowed the cooling rain to
fall for moment on his dark tousled
hair. He regarded the crowd which
hemmed him in with look almost of
pity in his dark eyes.
Listen, fellows" he began, "yor
don't know what you're getting into
by trying to beat that country"
But the map shows that it's just
back of Wrangell," Olson insisted.
ITO hell with the map!" Hammond
broke forth angrily. Certainly it's
back of Wrangell. Maybe seventy

of sun on ice. Hammond tried to tell
himself that it was none of his bust
ness. He entered the hotel.
"Joe here?" he asked the clerk.
mckenzie Joe? No, he pulled out
yesterday morning, all in rush."
"Down North?"
Didn't say. Must have. Got out
on a work train. Left not for you
though, Mr.. Hammond"
Jack unfolded the scrawled letter
that had been left by his bearded part
ner. 1t was brusque and jerkily frank.
well, figured you might play the
fool if you ever got to Seattle and
met that girl, but I never thought
you'd spill the beans like you did. Why
didn't you wait until you hit the bush
again before you got drunk? There'll
be thousand fools up in the Stikine
country before breakup. I'm hitting
out of here with short supplies to get
in there and protect our interests be-
fore the rush starts. See our lawyer
and be sure our claims and leases are
in good shape. Then come on with
supplies as quick as you cam
Hammond turned to the waiting
boy beside him and ordered his bags
taken to his room. Then he headed
for the door; again on the street, he
started toward a three-story building
few blocks away.
His course was broken one.
Townspeople he knew halted him to
question the accuracy of newspaper
stories which Jack Hammond had not
seen. His evasiveness only nettled
them.
What if you haven't seen the news
papers ?" they asked. "You made the
discovery. The Vancouver papers have
been full of it. You know all about
it-what's the use of trying to keep

five miles, a hundred, don't know
"Just below the Stikine river, a.
gainst the Alaskan border" supple
mented the red-faced man from Win
nipeg. "The newspaper said So"
II suppose that makes it a fact,
Hammond answered sarcastically.
I "Then why don't you go on to Wran-
CELL by boat and up the Stikine riv-
err"
You can't go up the Stikine this
time of year," an outsider argued.
Might as we'll try to walk on icicles."
will you let me explain the set
up?" Hammond insisted" If you go
in by way of the Stikine, you've got to
make nearly 20 miles and double back.
You can't turn off that river runs
through canyons almost to Telegraph
creek way past the discovery. It's
next to impossible to cover the Silk
inc route on the ice"
BOATS make that river in the sum-
mer time," someone insisted.
Certainly; paddle wheelers. But
this isn't summer. The spring break
up in that country isn't due for
months. Think that over"
Then Jack Hammond stood silent,
listening to the jangle of words about
him. Men were arguing about wheth-
er or not the newspaper was correct,
as if any inaccuracy were a personal
affront. All in an instant, the thought
of gold had torn reason to shreds.
Then Olson caught him by the arm
and shot the question::
"Yah! If you can't go in by way of
Wrangel, how do you do it,"
"By Fourcross, if you want to be
fool and try it."
whats so tough about that?"
"The weather." Jack insisted. "You
don't get any warm winds from the
Japanese current, once you're over the
Coastal range. It's 35 and 40 below,
all the way to the Stikine."
II know that" said Olson laconical-
ly.
"But why fight the bush for 200
miles with dog team when in a few
months, there'll be airplanes or easy
travel along the river and mountain
trails"
YAH" said Olson, land find all the
claims gone"
"Or you've gobbled up the whole
country through a set of dummies, ,
the red-faced man added.
"You can figure that out for your
SELF" Hammond answered abruptly
and shouldering through the crowd
again moved up the street, leaving the
throng muttering behind him. But a.
