He studied the note for a time.
After a while he stood up,

a man who hardly dares to wait
before he starts TO execute a
purpose. He pulled out his suit

sailors hands knew where every
thing had TO go. They used their
own separate wits for the stow

of Cabot TO concern itself with
other and unhappy thoughts.
Manchu grew so excited that
he started running here and
there around the master. until
Cabot. the bag now packed,
dropped a glove on the floor and
told the bull-terrier to guard it.
Manchu lay down and took it be-

bric-a-brac amounted to nothing.
But the necklace and the brace

something else, again. He had

in his hand To watch the flash
and burn of it. Then there were
half dozen great uncut stones,

gem like the ruby.
He had slipped a handful of
these uncut gems worth a for
tune into his pocket when he
heard a football coming down the
last of the stairs and off onto the
hall floor. rapidly. He started to
close the steel drawers of the
safe but the very first one struck
and squeaked little.
He took a calm. valuable half
second to estimate time and
realized that it was too short for
him to close the safe before the
football reached this door. SO he
stepped out into the hall and saw
coming toward him the black
velvet evening cloak and fur COL

Waller Guest Of Fire Dept.

With Chief Loughead in the chair and H. H. Waller, engineer in charge of local improvements under REA and PWA as guest of honor, the Kodiak Fire De partment held its regular mon thlv meeting last Tuesday.
 A very interesting talk was de- livered by Waller who stated i've have discovered an excel lent source of water for the city requirements, and now are engag- ed in making a survey prellmln- ary to actual work of construc- t on. We have six men in the field When the PWA a. wards Kodiak the S200,000 re- quested, I can assure you of an abundant water supply here.... However the cost of labor and supplies increasing so materially these last few months and pos S ply more in the future makes it a difficult problem to forecast how extensive the water system projects will be....It will all de- pend on the availability of mat erials and of course, the money allotted".

Cattle Continue Their
 UnhamDered Rambling

Although fined In the Magis states Court last week, owners of some rowing cattle again allow ed their bovine stock to range within the city limits. This re- suited in considerable damage being done to we'll developed grass lawns and flower beds causing many an irate property owner to wish i'll for the COWS and bulls creating the disturb ances. Apparently the fines ass essed did not make any imp ression on the guilty parties.
 One home-owner, Les Mach tweih, impounded five cows and a bull in his fenced-in back yard and held them, legally, until the owner of the cattle came and settled for the damages sustained to his lawns, etc.
 The law enforcement officers seem to show little concern over these very disconcerting distur- banccs the cattle-owners less. We wonld advocate property owners impounding any such cattle found on their premises, and hold them for EXTENSIVE DAMAGES then to Court for HEAVY FINES and not $500 either.
