ployment, expected to be reached

San Diego, Calf, estimated at $34,-
100000 for 1910, was % per cent Of

"Ar right" she said. but she kept on look

When they got out to her car he paused
without putting down the heavy suitcase and
stared at the city. Manchu stared also, his
hair bristling.

And Now Go On With the Story.

HuRPOSELY- Cabot was among the last
- to offer his passport for examination to
the Federal inspectors in the big SALON.
He hoped that their tired eyes would pass over
him quickly but the old man who looked into
his passport was as sharp as white fox.
He said. with hardly an upward glance
still STUDYING the passport facts. You look
heavier than this weight. Mr. Annesley.'.
I've put on some pounds in China said
Cabot.
The old inspector lifted his eyes and probed
Cabot from head to foot.
I'd say that muscle had been building
since you were a boy he remarked And
you look older too
"A thousand years older. That's the way
I fee -" said Cabot smiling little
The inspector did not smile The question
IN his face was settling to a certain grinaness
when Ruth Allen put her arm through Cabots
and said impatiently, whispering. Cant You
hurry II a little. darling?" She looked up at
him. opened-eyed, with a smile that promised
never to fade through no matter how many
years.
The inspector scrowled, shrugged his
shoulders, and showed the passport suddenly
toward Cabot.

the girl not the man.
They got his one bag through the customs

I'm sorry" she said. You're going to

why particularly"
There's no use going into that I'll give
you few hints We don't speak about her
health. She pretends that she's always about
to get up every day she's making plans for
tomorrow. Bob never would write to her.
You'll catch IT for that Whatever you do,
don't talk back There are a lot of other
things to warn you about but-well, you'll
find your way as you go along"

Besides, there's your part of the bargain
still ahead of you. over in Annesey
House. Bobs grandmother is waiting for
him. She's saving what little breath is
left to her that she cant talk to him
before she dies. She's been saving it
ever since the day read in the news
paper about Carol Lester and Bob on
the Thalia'
You mean they wired that nonsense
in and made news story of 1t ?il
she would have died before night of
that day, according to the doctor but
when she heard you were coming, she
wouldn't let herself CO.
She S able to do that ?"
Certainly She's an Annesey, at least by
marriage. and the Annesleys put thing like
death in its proper place.
Il take it you're an Annesley yourself, or
almost"
Almost hope Aunt Margaret knows
that her soul couldn't find peace unless she
says the things she's been saving up for Bob.
That's why need you. She's blind. You can
tell her that you're Bob and let her go into
her last song and dance
I'm to pretend that I'm Annesley?"
You're already pretending it. That's what
put the idea in my mind Then you've really
been in China so that if she asks questions you
can answer them"
She started the car. Her hands were small
but she used them like a man
"Al right" she asked.
'All right" said Cabot viii you tell me
why you didn't let me know about it before? ?"
Because wasn't about you before"
He said nothing.
That's why I'm sure she said. Because
you know how to keep still"
will you tell me what I'm supposed to
know, or be Ike ?"
There isn't time tc tell you all that 1t
would taixe-days.- You've got-to- bluff every
thing through VIII you try"
It's my part of the bargain" said Cabot"
The darkness thickened about them as
they dropped into the valley. AS they rose
little toward Annesley House there were stars.
Even the Milky Way had begun to show when
they stopped IN front of the place The long
facade of white painted arches looked south
toward the sea. There was dull noise of surf
as Ruth Allen turned to meet the wind. Over

through the mist The white spot this side
of the Gap is Annesey House. Shall drive
the rest of the way?"
LIE GOT out, silently, spoke to Manchu as
he came around behind the car and then
climbed in beside the girl.
I'm happier she said. considering him
That's good"
Because know more about you. You've
ridden horses a good deal haven't you?
What puts that in your mind ?"
You drive a car in a riders casual way
as though you could trust it not to get into
trouble"
He regarded her with an eye of thought.
You're as bright a bird, he said.
And you don't like birds very well p"
mot very well. BY the way, your whole
scheme really is pretty thin. You have the
old family retainers in house like that"
You don't -know-&unt Margaret=and

There's no way of talking myself out of

She leaned back in her corner, silent.

and drove brislly on.

back. "Manohu is loving the sunset" she

Floyd Cromwell Is
 Jailed for Larceny

| aT f | .
 Charged with obtaining property under false pretenses, Floyd Crom- well was in the Federal Jail here this morning under a $l,000 bond
 According to Assistant District At torney Lynn Gemmill, Cromwell went to the Swanson Brothers groc- cry store on September 30 and asked for credit to buy groceries. As he was stranger to Olaf Swanson who was tending the store at the time, he was given a credit application card to fill out, which he is alleged to have signed with the name of Frank Jackson, and on which he also is charged with having claimed to be employed by the Alaska Juneau mine. Gemmill said Cromwell also admitted having obtained clothing at the Graves clothing store here under the name of Jackson.
 Records in the District Attorneys office this morning showed that Cromwell formerly served term at McNeill's Island for larceny in a dwelling in 1886 and since then has served jail terms for petit larceny acts

Dr. King Returns
 From Vacation Trip

After an extended trip through the western United States, Dr. Lucia King was back at her desk in the Alaska Indian Service Office today with memories of pleasant summer spent visiting old friends and rela- tives in many places. Dr. King, Associate Superviso. of Elementary Education in the Ter ritory. formerly held the same post at Rort Wingate N. M, for five years and spent month of her trip at Fort Wingate, where she attended the annual Indian Sevice summer institute, studying curriculum prob lens and other subjects associated with her work.
 Thrill of the trip was the quick flight to Seattle and then to her former home in Minneapolis, which took less than "A hours, Dr. King said. In Minneapolis she purchased an automobile and motored to New Mexico and then through the Rocky Mountain States to Montana, where she visited friends before returning to Seattle.
