Dnder the hanging hurricane lamp I drew forth my copy of Grace's last notes, written on the day when famine and sickness drove him to torn back with his task still undone. Grace was leading an exploring trip, flnaneed by the moneyed partner who wished to sol re one of the many nusolved prob-lems of the New Guinea back country, and. Incidentally, place his somewhat undistinguished name upon the map. To cross from the Romllly to the Fly had been hlj ambition. There was and still Is a big unknown area In those parts, and Jackson had been bitten by the desire, uost natural, as I saw It of finding out what, and who, might be In the untraveled space. " . I snt on the end of the sleeping plat-form, under the lamp, and pored upon my copy of the words he had written In the bitterest hour of his life "Jflmmrr 5 No ansa In staM 4 CHAPTER VHContinued 14 "Co easy," I told net. "We're going to have a real picnic trip down the river no hurry,' everything pleasant There's nothing to cry about and noth-ing to got In a paddy about I'm going to talk to the carriers; take any rags you w n .it out of my swag while I'm away." I left her alone, sitting there a for-lorn slim figure. In the new sun of the day that was to have begun my march to victory. All the great bush was awoke nnd getting to Its business of the Uii.v- -lt didn't care that my ambi-tions were wrecked end my plans, of years, thrown Into the Romllly river. I tin it never questioned for an in-stant the necessity laid upon me to ' take Jinny sufely back to civilization, save her from the consequences of her Cully, at any cost. But I could not pretend to myself however much 1 might pretend, to her that I was glad. It mount the 'using op of my stores, the Hng hack to Dam to refit Los-ing the carriers was possible; they might desert as soon as they saw the sea, and I should have to recruit over again. Weeks ot delay, mouths maybe, and all the time--All the time I A thought struck me, hard. I was repacking some of the boys' loads, when this Idea cam to me, "All the time" I said to myself. "All the time someboJy else would be getting sway. .... I think I can agree with Jinny In calling him a swine," I found her waiting by the baggage. She had taken a shirt and a pair of trousers out of my swag and dressed herself In them, throwing away her rags. She had smoothed ber hair with my comb, and wtshed ber face with what I Inferred to be the last of our drinking water. ... No matter; I could send s boy or two to fetch more from the bottom of the gorge; what was time, now? The queerest mixture of kindliness and anger filled my heart, when I looked at her. After all, If what 1 bus- - Stores very low. Jackson anxious to turn back at once. After dispute, agreed one day more. Boys weak, re-bellious. Dysentery threatening. "January 6.

Natives appeared on dis-tant ridge, war-dance- No attack. Deeply regret necessity return." . . . Then the passage that gave signifi-cance to the whole aided hastily in pencil, as If some reserve, some Im-pulse of prudence had suddenly broken down "Whole formation suggests gold. If so, bare struck biggest jew-eler's shop ever known." "Jeweler's shop," a phrase current among Papunn miners, means a pocket or series of pockets, of extreme richness. ". . . January 0.

When stopping In stream bed for lunch, shower of spears suddenly thrown from dense bush. One went through Jackson. I fired Into bush and ordered carriers to do same. Heard one or two shouts, but on entering bush later nothing to be seen.

This went through my mind In a second, while Jinny was going on "1 hadn't anywhere to stay at Daru. Mrs. Maidstone, she give me a bed. Spieer, he was there. I know Spicer; he used to be on the balls, years ago, but he wasn't any good at that, so he got a Job as gentleman's gentleman to Sir Richard. Welt.

After all, she had risked ber life, was ready to go on risking It Just for the doubtful blessing of my society. Was It a crime? No, by all the gods io matter what It had cost me. Yet The way to the Romllly river was easier than It had been coming up. We got fhere In two days and camped to make rafts, since no canoes were now available. And on the first of the nights of our camp, Jinny and I came to an explanation. CHAPTER VIII We were seated upon the platform of Jinny's tent-fly- , which had been mine (I slept with the carriers now). She sat with her legs crossad, playing 1 an Improvised "banjo," and mimicking W the sound with closed lips, very cle-verlyIf one had felt disposed for such cleverness. I was not so disposed, . feeling, indeed, a good deal more like going down to the Romllly and drown-ing myself in It than listening to revue tricks but I respected the pluck that et the improvised banjo to a seeming twanging. Somehow she Influenced me, drove the dark mood away. Somehow, by and by, she had me laughing. And the great dark about us pressed less heavily; the world narrowed, sud-denly, to a cosy small tent wlfh a lantern and a pretty girl lighting It up almost equally. . . . We hnd had little tulk on the way down from the hills. But now, with a day or two of waiting before us, while rafts were for him,' says he, 'arid then he'll be off by the Romllly river, and If you take a canoe along the coast,' says he, 'I'll put you up to all the tricks,' he says, 'and you'll catch him up be-fore he can get out of the bush coun-try, where he'll have to cut his way,' he says, 'and you'll show blm,' he says 'what you can do after all. And who knows,' he says Now I've told you everything, Phil Amory, and more than you want to know, so If you'll kindly leave my little wooden but to .me, I'll go " "You'll leave my little wooden hut for mo," she parodied, shrilly. The black forest about us sounded to her high singing. I had thanked her, and left her, and 1 was alone alone vlth myself, nnd the knowledge of my wrecked ambi-tions. Things, on tho whole, looked worse than I had supposed them to be. Iltine riltl nit knntv pvorvthlno fin hard, relating deaths of carriers, fur-ther attacks by natives, terrible straits for lack of food and lack of water; the finding at last of s small patch of sago that enabled them to secure enough food for a last rush back to the Romllly river. Grace bad written little after that ; the fever, that ended his life some weeks Inter was burning out his strength day by day, and be was barely able to reach the coast alive. There, at i little trading sta-tion he died ; leaving bis gear with the trader; and I, coming along some while after, had bought the stuff for a song. Grace's diary didn't Interest the trader, who had native blood, and could barely read and write. I was J as sure as anyone could be that my eya were the first to rest upon It I had been absolutely sure till the day I met Jinny Treacher, on Thursday Island that the very word "Tatatata" was unknown to any save myself; that the suggestion, tie possibility of far as she was aware, Spicer had been the moving spirit In the plot to stop me and bring me ha.'k ; but I guessed the hand of Sir Richard Fanshaw in the mattei. If the plan were his, it wus a good plan, fully organized, and one might expect developments from it yet It was as certain as anything could reasonably be, that a rival ex-pedition was even now on Its way. One hope only I had. My road was not the road of the dead miner, Grace; I bad used my knowledge of the coun-try to beat out a new track. If 1 were right and I wus all but sure of that the new way would cut down risk, time, expense, above all, enable me to get to Tatatata faster than any one else could. Faster, It might be, than any rival trip that had started immense ipfasurr, cumiiineu iieiweeo the lines of Graces diary, was my secret alone. Now that I had passed the.: trading station a;aln, ascended the river, no Sherlock Holmes was needed to tell me how the secret hud got out That story was contained In one sentence Ora , e had written to his girl. He had no doubt hoped to get better, get back to her. He had done exactly as I had done with Pla, as Sir Richard Fan-shaw had done with Jinny. Told bis girl his secrets. ... ' And Grace's girl bad gone out ' In an Influenza epidemic, not long after. But before that, she had, In her turn, told some one who was, probably, her lover; might have been ber lover all along Fnnshaw. (TO BB CONTINUED) niaae, u seemea to me tnnt I owed her something. She thought me hard, unkind. I didn't want to be a churl. "What's It about, Jinny?" I asked ber, as she ended her play. "What's the smooglng for? Want me tc go out and buy you a pair of silk stockings?" She laughed; stretched out her shapely dancer's leg, disguised in my khaki trousers. "I don't want anything off you," she said, suddenly grave. "At least, cot anything you'd want to give me this side of the grave. . . . I've made up my mind to tell you all about everything all about my comln' along after you, 1 mean Well, the beginning of It was that day when you talked to me on Thursday Island, and said no woman couldn't go exploring; that put me In a bit of a paddy, be-cause of course I didn't believe It and I don't either" , "We ll let that go," I cut in, a trifle wearily. I knew I stould never suc-ceed In making Jinny see the truth. "Well, I was feeling pretty bad about It after you went And It Just came Into my bead, I' don6 how, thut I'd get a bout and run over to the other side, and see, dke, how things were going on with you and your trip. Of course. Sir Richard Fanshaw, be was meanlo' to go and get whatever It was, before you, and Spieer, he wns backing him up; I'd got that much out of the old boy, while we was friends, because of course he wanted to make love to me, and 1 wouldn't, and . that's when they will tell yon. . . .

A new device designed to guide airplanes through darkness and fog, the bugaboos of all airmen, was given its first puhllc demonstration re-cently by Its Inventor, Earl 0. Hanson, at the Ford Transport exhililt In the One Hundred snd Thirty-firs-t regiment armory. The demonstration followed a year of secret tests conducted at the Ford airport at Lansing, III., where planes oslng the new equipment Installed there were directed through bod weather and brought to the ground through the use of the invisible "pilot" Inventor Is Chlcagoan. Mr. Hanson, a Chlcagoan, explained that the new contrivance Is an adap-tation of the device used by the allies during the war to tap the enemies' wires. It is now being used In har-bors to' guide ships along treacherous channels and through thick fcg, be said. Aviation experts who Inspected the miniature device Installed at the arm-ory proclaimed it one of the foremost developments in the efforts being made to combat the dangers of flying In conditions of poor visibility, a source of peril for air travelers. Mr. Hudson's device Is based on the principle of electro-magneti- c Induc-tion. Two series of energized cables are laid on the ground leading to an airport The cables are parallel and each series gives off a signal code, one a series of dashes and the other a series of dots, so that a pilot flying Into a fogbound field picks up a con-tinuous signal by flying a middle path between the cables. This signal grows tn Intensity until the plane reaches the edge of the field where another loop of cables, called the "gun coll," gives the signal to cut motors and glide to a I muling. Besides providing a steady nnd con-tinuous directional signal, the cable also gives the pilot an exact reading of his actual height above the ground a distinct Improvement over the present altimeter. The altitude nnd directional readings may be transmit-ted to the pilot by head phones, cali-brated " meter or by a system of lights on the Instrument hoard. Adds to Directional Beacon, Last year saw the development of the radio directional beacon for guld- - Ing pilots along the air lines, hut there previously has been no simple, depend-able meuns evolved to direct the flyer through thick fog to a landing after he has arrived over the airport of his destination. , The cable system Is not limited to its use to airport approaches, accord-ing to the Inventor. He explained that through the aid of cables laid across country, pilots will be able to follow a course over the most treach-erous mountains, being able to keep to a direct course and at a safe altitude by the continuous Invisible path set up by slgnnls. NEED 10,000 PILOTS FOR MILITARY DUTY Army Air Chief Believes in Preparedness. Washington. For a major emer-gency the United States should have 10,000 trained military pilots upon whom It could rail for Immediate service. In the opinion of Maj. Gen. James E. Feclict, chief of the army air corps. Of this number there should be 2,500 In actual service In the regu lar army, he believes. In testifying before a subcommittee of the bouse appropriations committee during consideration of the War de-partment appropriations bill, General Fechet declared that there are only 4,000 first-clus- s pilots In the country who are fit for military service with-out special training. These men are In the army and navy air services or are kept In continuous training through the reserve system. There are 1,004 reserve pilots ready for emergency duty, he said. The ordinary commercial pilot who has bad no military training Is not available for emergency duty, General Fechet pointed out Before he can be used be must be given a general mili-tary training. Many commercial flyers never can be qualified as military pilots because they fall to possess qualifications which a fighting pilot must have, hut which are not required for ordinary flying. The military pilot must fly Instinc-tively and not mechanically, he de-clared. He must be able to fly tight, close formntlons and to corrv out his work without endangering the other men. "Some men," said the air crops chief, "cannot fly thnt way, because they Just absolutely cunnol fly close. Their nervous makeup prevents them from doing It Others, when they are close, are so occupied tn watching the other ships thut they muke poor formntlon flyers." In addition, the military pilot must know the use of machine guns, the use of bomb Bights and the dropping of bombs, aerial photography and ob-servation work. He must have mili-tary training, ground work on engines and Instruments and navigation. He must know enough of military tactics and operation to Intelli-gently with ground forces. Mnny com-mercial pilots would require from two to eight months' training to become good military pilots. General Fechet estimated. Jim's Thoughts Traveled Beyond the Honeymoon Governor Young was commenting on the California man-lug- law which rompels ardent couples to stop, look snd think before they take the final step. "It is a good law," he said, "and although It was primarily aimed at the 'gin inorrlage' it has a far wider scope thut that. In these days of high cost of living, too many young people are of the Jim Harris type. "Jim, yon know, was very anxious to marry Claudia. Claudia was will-ing and her purents were not averse to the match. "'As a wedding present,' Claudia confided to Jim, 'Dad Is going to pay nil the expenses of our honeymoon trip.'

Opera composers more fre-quently made a trade of composition, but even these have often been or-chestral players, or conductors, or have made a living by teaching and writing about music. Musical composition Is one of the very worst paid Jobs in the world un-less the composer happens to bit the popular fancy of his own time, which only a few composers have managed to do. Consequently most of the com-posers have done something else for a living, though generally something connected with music J. S.

Flint engineer, has sent an operating model of bis new mechanical airplane wlnu control to Dr. Alexander Klemln. head of the aeronautics school at New York university, for wind tunnel tests. Gardner's Invention would muke It possible for a pilot to adjust the an gle of bis wings to suit his movements In the air. Both wings move as a unit, their angle being changed as the plane moves through the air by a lev-er In the cockpit The wings may be locked in any position by means of a brake which can withstand terrific air pressure, according to Gardner. Steel tubing extends through the center of both wings and fuselage for strength. Gardner believes his Invention will make it possible to pull planes out of dives and spins and will improve take-off- s and load carrying ability. For night flying a set of lights Is provided to Inform the pilot of the exact ad Justment of the wings.
