CHAPTER XXII. THE ROOM DOWNSTAIRS. Norman Slater did not recover hi« â- enses till the smaU hours of the morning, and then for a long while only in the sketchiest fashion. In hie war experienced he had been gaseed on one occasion and buried in a shell- hole for half a day on another, and his present sensations reniiaided him of both.- His head was splitting, his throat was parched and his limbs were BO cramped that movement was almost denied him. Not a ray of light shone on/ his ini»er>'. By diegrees rernembrance can.e back, up to the point when he had .niccumb- ed to superior numbers and a most potent anaesthetic in the keeper's cot- taige. From that his mind worked backwards to the events of the day before and what had led up to them. He groaned i ndespair â€" not for his own plight, but Ijecause he feared for Kathleen. At first he had not the faintest no- tion where he was- The sound of running water gurgling close by presently gave him a clue to his whereabouts, and at last the breaking ot dawn on an iron-grated aperture hig^ up in the wall of his prison con- ftrmed it. His treacherous captors had car- ried him to the deserted mill across the atream and had fastened him to « wall in the basement. As the light jrnew stronger he was sure of this. That pile of rotting sacks in the cor- ner mu,st once have held golden grain reaped in the pleasant counti-ysidie which he would never see again. His gloomy meditations were dis- turbed by the grating of a key and M m % m.

"I was hoping to reach the Towers before you, sir, but I have had a very busy day," the inspector replied re- spectfully. "Jump up alongside the chauffeur. It will save you half a mile," said the great man affably. On arriving at the house Mr. Colne. at once led the way to his study. "Now, what does this mean?" he stood up and faced the detective. "I had your message in Downing Street and hastened here at once. You have found the letter written by Sir Dud- ley Glenister to his cousdn?" "Not the original, sir," replied Wragge- "As I told you, that was hopeless from the first. But I hav-e got a man who took a press copy of it, which he will produce, and in the meanwhile he has informed me of the contents." "Which were?" snapped the cabinet minister.

Nor- man pcresen-ed silence, gazing up at the dieeipated face with weary scorn "There is ju«t a chance that you may be spared the degradation of be- ing thrashed as well as burned," the husky voice went on- "That rests with your lady-love, who is my guest on the upper floor. If she consente to become my wife she will be spared the flames and you will be spared the whipping. You will bum anyhow, as I have no other means of stopping the fuse you would make." The threat fell flat, so far as any outward show went. "I am now going up to present my terms to Kathleen," Sir Dudley con- cluded. "I hope I have made It clear that it rests with her whether you are flogged in addition to being cre- mated." He went out, locking the door be- hind him. I the opening of the door of his prison. ' Judith Grimes entered, bearing a ' basin of porridge and a jug of milk. She went out as silently as she had come, a gaunt and foi-bidding figrure ! with her scanty gray locks and angu- .lar shoulders. The food and drink restored his body and mind to something approach- I ing the normal. He was straining his bonds pain- fully when once again the door of his dungeon swung open. He sank down again in a shiver of disiappointment and disgust. It was Sir Dudley Glen- ister who swaggered into the noise- some hole jingling coins in hw pocket and exuding triumph in every pore of hs great, coarse body- "Well, my bold hero, you've bitten off more than you can chew," the baronet jeere<} at the helpless man.

This, is genuine, Wragge?" he said after a pause. "You didn't have to write the letter yourself to save your bacon " "Sir!" rejoined the Scotland Yard officer, and there was a world of vir- tuous protest In his tone. "Then I fail to see the urgency which coused you to drag me from my public duties in London," said Mr. Colne haughtily "Why don't you go and arrest your man? The case is complete." | Wragge dropped his eyes under the rebuke and raised them again at the' {grudging compliment. "I am sorry to have disturbed you,' sir, but in the chief commissJoner's ' opinion the case is not quite rape for, an aii:*^," he replied suavely. "I have been in communication with Sir Donald at the Yard this afternoon. It i« a question of the date â€" the 7th of June two years ago. We shall have to prove that Sir Dudley Glenister was at the Cranage on that diay and was therefore in a position to have killed his cousin if the latter kept the appointment made in the letter. As a neighbor and friend of the Glenister ffimily we thought that you might be able to help us â€" if you were spending the week-end covering that date at the Towers. It was Sir Donald yji^io made the suggestion." The Right Honorable Stephen Colne was very angry now. "Sir Donald is an idiot," he blus- tered- "And you, too, Wragge, for acting on such folly. How can I-*e- menrber where I was on a certain day moi-e than two years ago?" "Of course you couldn't, sir," re plied Wragge humbly. "But your secretaries or someone might have a record." Mr. Colne's wrath was blazing to white heat, for nearly a minute ren- dering him speechless. "What would that avail?" he hec- tored. "It is Sir Dudley Glenister you have to pin down for that date â€" not me. Supposing I was at the Tow- ers on the 7th of June that year it wouldn't be evidence against him un- less 1 had seen him, and I cannot re- call that. The chances are that I was not here that week-end." "Quite so, sir," said Wragge sooth- ingly. "I expect the chief contmis'- sioner only suggested asking you as a sort of forlorn hope" Mr. Colne spluttered and muttered, but seemed to be partly pacified by the reply. "I can see that I shall have to teach you your business," he laughed "Why don't you ask Miss Kathleen Glenister? She was living at the Grange then. She didn't clear out till over a year later, when the present upstart took possession." It was Wragge's turn to laugh, but there was no good humor in hk effort. It rasped like a rusty file.

GOLD YIELD EXPECTED Additional Pulp and Paper Mills Probable in Near Future Picturing the future of the Hudson Bay Basin as a producttive section of the Dominion, the Hon. Charles Mc- Crea, Ontario Minister of Mines, spoke briefly recently before th« Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, Toronto Branch. Mr. McCrea Introduced Dr. H. B. Stew^art, chief medical adviser of the Hudson's Bay Company, who gave an illustrated lecture on "The Natural Resources of the Hudson Bay Basin." Mr. McCrea referred to the railway builders pushing two different lines up to Hudson Bay and James Bay, as mo- dern pioneers, following the example set by Hudson, the explorer. In 1611. ^Noting the Immense area of the Hudson Bay Basin, more than 3,000,- 000 square miles. Dr. Stewart refer- red to the vast range of Itts climatic conditions extending from sub-Arctic to temperate. Geological Make-up. Referring to the geological make-up of the basin, the speaker tuoched up- on the granite to be found along the northern rims of the bajs the lignite on the Salmon River which supplies the stoves of many of the northern stations of the company, the mica be- ing produced In small quantities at Lake Harbor, the nickel deposits at Cape Smith, lead at Mayfair River, gypsum and china clay In the Moose Factory section, and quantities of Iron ore to be found in the Belcher Islands district, but noted that so far no gold deposits of any consequence have been located, although prospecting Is being carried still further northward, and a fair probablUtty exists of this precious metatl being found In paying quantities. Furs, the product of the district for 250 years, are still being sent out in large quantities. Dr. Stewart stated. Fish of Two Varieties. "Hudson Bay is not teeming with fish, as some people Imagine," Dr. Stewart said, referring to the scarcity of any variety except rock cod and white flsh. In time, the fisheries of the basin may attain large production, but not for some years. Pulp and paper production Is already going ahead, with prospect of additional mills in the near future. Black and white spruce, tamarac, balsam, poplar, white birch and balsom pine are among the principal species of timber found In the area. Fall wheat, grow- ing at Moose Factory, had shown as high a yield as that in the Western provinces, and a good future In agri- culture was predicted by Dr. Stewart. "I believe the Hudson Bay area route will prove a boon to Western Canada for general commodities, but It will not be for some years â€" pos- sibly never â€" that wheat will be ship- ped to any great extentt. The straits are open longer than people Imagine, but the difficulty will be to keep Fort Churchill's port open long enough to be of value to navigation by the new routte." Princes Didn't Get 'Promised' Gira£Fe Owner, in 1489. Refused to Give Animal to King's Daughter Chicago. â€" The pining of a princess for • giraffe 400 years ago Is pre- served In a history of that elongated animal published by the Field Mus- eum of Natural History. Lorenzo da Medici h(id a giraffe in his menagerie at Florence, which aroused the In- terest of Anne de Beaujeu, daughter of Louis XI. of France. She had dreams of owning a giraffe of her own and finally alleged Lorenzo had pro- mised her his. Finally she wrote him on April 14, 1489. Her plea was of no avail. Lor- enzo kept his giraffe. Giraffes have been popular In regal circles since the time of remote Elgy- ptian kings. Julius Caesar showed Rome Us first giraffe In a triumphal procession in 46 B.C. Although It hardly seems possible, giraffes have gone up. They used ta cost between $1600 and |2000, but now run from $6000 to $7500. Brimful of Foolishness.
