; , Rails Are Coming
EYES of tho business world are
turned now iiKn the recent
I'i tiling of the interstate commerce
commission- permitting the fireut
' Northern to build, in connection
Willi the Western pacific, tile 200
J mile rail link connecting Klaniaib
Falls Willi Keddle, California. The
,' Investment of fourteen millions of
dollars Is alone an important item
I in Pacific coast business but there
is another significance to the vie-
. tory of the (treat Northern. The
decision definitely points to the
stimulation of competition between
', important railroads as a matter of
public policy.
i V.'e may expect, therefore, that
af, least one intermediate port be-
twecn San Francisco and Portland
! ,vJJI be developed and perhaps two
' or three. Previous to the recent do
i cision such a dvelopment could not
I be predicted with entire safety.
' What are llio possibilities? They
! are, briefly,, the Port of I'mpnuu,.
the Port of Coos Pay and tho
. Crescent City port.
' The future of Roseburg and
! Douglas county Is bound up tightly
' with that or cither Coos Bay or tile
Vnipqun port or both.

' its road to Reedsport and to Coos

I! Portland's port facilities nro ob

stitutes to be Eugene's outlet to the
;ea, and Coos Hay has languished
"these twenty years without the
rwil development. It should have en
Jdyed ns the result of having be

WILD HORSE MEAT
HAS GOOD MARKET
ON PACIFIC COAST
nOISE, Idaho, July 5. in the
mou 111 of George F. Cokely, meilt
packer of San Jose, Cal., a nice
steak off a prime horse Is as roou
as beef. Cokely suns Ills praises
of horse stesk after his arrival
here to back up his belief with
purchases of horses.
He plans to buy some of the
ponies being rounded up on the
Owyhee county ranee for shipment
td his San Jose plant. He said
much of the better grade horse
ment is sold on the Pacific coast
and is In great demand. Seattle,
Portland and Sitn Francisco buy
large quantities of the meat, be
said, it is sold under its own
name at a price less than that tor
beef. Cokely asserted.
One of the hardest Jobs. Cokely
snld. was to get the owners of
horses to admit having any wild
horses for sale, due to their fear
of the nssessor. Ranchmen with
as few as five horses listed on
their tax rolls will ship as many

'WHERE'S EMILV?'
" by Carolyn Wells 1
CHAPTER XLV.
' Dctor Eaton lett the sickroom
with a heavy heart. He knew a lot
about the results of shell shock,
and this present case showed many
symptoms. His diagnosis, corrob
orated by his conferees, was that
the whole illness of Emily was the
result of shock or by some fright-
ening occurrence or. series of occur
rences. The latter most likely, for
one snock, however great, could
scarcely reduce a strong, healthy
girl to this pitiable, trembling
wreck or humanity.
But the doctors all agreed there
was nothing to be done but wait
and let nature do all lt could by
Itself In a recuperating way.
Emily took the nourishment they
offered and swallowed milk or
broth naturally and with no un
willingness. This led to a more
assured opinion that physically
there was little the matter with
her.
But when the sedative effect
wore off and consciousness began
to return, then came about the ter
rible spells of hysteria and appar
ent dementia.
About dawn Ettillv had one of
Ibese attacks and became so vio
lent that they were obliged to re
strain her by force. ...
"1 must gel out of the window,"
She cried, not loudly, but with a
low piteous moa. . "I must get
out of Hhe window!"
"Yes, dear," soothed the nurse,
"yes, you shall get out of the win
dow. Just wait till afternoon.
Take a nap first."
And so receptive was Emily's
disordered brain that she obeyed
and went to sleep as suggested.
Then In a moment slie was wild
again, tossing her restless head
and throwing her arms about.
Patiently the nurse soothed her
and tried to calm her. Sometimes
the efforts were successful, some
times not, but the nurses, frequent
ly relieved, were Indefatigable and
persistent in their determination
to do their part toward the recov
ery of Emily Duane.
Not ' only was it a celebrated
case, as well as the most important
and Interesting case the hospital
had ever had In its brief career,
but they all loved Emily, they all
admired Rodney, and they outvied
one another in their work of res
cue. 1
At seven o'clock, when Emily
chanced to be quiet, a nurse took
occasion to tell Rodney he nau
better go home and freshen up and
get his breakfast.
You can get breakfast here If
you like" she went on, smiling at
him. "but I'm sure you'll fare bet
ter it Knollwood. And yon can t
see Miss Duane today in any case.
Perhans not for several days.
"But she's getting better. She's
doing all right?" begged Rodney
and the nurse was moveu to give
him some details.
"Yes." - she said, .picking her
words carefully, "she's doing all
the doctors can expect or hope for
at present. They want to build her
up physically before she is ques
tioned or even spoken to."
"Has she said anything at all?"
"Nothing coherent. I was with
her about three or four o'clock,
when she woke suddenly and
seemed to want to talk. I didn't
discourage her exactly, and she
tried hard to say something. But
she couldn't get the words right.
Then she waved her arms about
and said thickly, 'Can't talk get
pen- ' So I offered her a pen
cil and a paper pad. But she only
stared at me and said, 'No, no
get pen ' Well, of course, I
didn't dare bring her pen and ink.
for she's likely to flin? it all over
the sheets, so I said, 'Yes, dear.
tomorrow we'll get a pen for you,' f
and she smiled almost rationally,
and dropped ott to sleep like a
lamb."
Rodney listened, glad to hear
tiny details, and then he said:
"Thank you, nurse. It's plain to
be seen she wants to tell of her
experiences, but she can't com
mand her speech yet. If the doc
tor will let you, give her a pen
today, but, of course, don't do
anything he thinks unwise."
"No, sir" said the nurse, de
murely, quite willing to let this
nice young man think he was giv
ing her valuable advice.
Sayre went back to Knollwood.
greatly heartened by his talk with
the nurse. It brought Emily nearer
to him to hear these details of
what she was doing and saying.
Had he known the real truth of
her terrible night, he would have
felt less secure of her ultimate re
covery. '
At the breakfast table all tried
to be cheerful and hopeful. Aunt
Judy was fianktv jujbllant over
Emily's return and was sure that
i she would soon be her own self
again.
Pete was worrying about the po
lice. He hadn't mentioned it, but
he felt sure the moment Emily was
well enough they would arrest her
for Polly Pennington's murder.
Emily arrested for murder! The
iden was so absurd as to seem im
possible, hut Pete knew how
stronaly Ijiwlor believed In the
girl's guilt, and whatever the out
come might be lt would mean a
lot of trouble and publicity.
netty was a little downcast, fo"
'she had had a relative who had
lost his mind through the effect
of shock, and she secretly feared
for Emily.
Fleming Stone, pleasant and
kindly as always, ws abstracted
and thoughtful.
Vie roused to sharp attention
when Rodney related what the
nurse had told him.
For Sayre. so pleased himself ;o
learn details of his darling's do
ings, wanted to pass tlie story r.n
to interest Aunt Judy and Betty.
But of them all Stoue showed
the deepest Interest.
"Tell that a tain. Sayre." he said,
excitedly. "Tell It exactly as the
nurse told It lo you."
Nothing loath. Rodney repeated
it ail. being careful to quote tit1
... ...t t,..,.l ,.f II... t,,,,w
"1 shall have to go right :o
New York." Stone said, as they
rose from the table "Pete, you
keep an eye and ear for anything
that may happen. Of course, no
body can question Emily or even
see her, I suppose, but get from
the nurses a full account of any
thing she say or does. It may
mean everything in, our search for
the villain who brought all this
about. I shall stop at the hospital
before I co to the train, for there
may be some further news.'
Stone hurried off, and though
wondering what had given him this
new Impetus they could scarcely
think it was Emily's suggestion of
writing what she could not say.
And yet it. was.
Fleming Stone stopped at the
hospital on his way to the station
and asked for Doctor Eaton and
for the nurse who had been with
Emily during the early morning
hours.
"You see. doctor." the detective
said, "our suspicions are weil
founded. I don't know where Em
ily has been kept these, six days,
but we do know who kept her cap
tive. We don't know how she .got
out, and we can't know until either
she or her captor tells us."
They talked for a few moments
longer and then the nurse they had
summoned appeared.
"Has Miss Duane said anything
rational?" Stone asked her.
"Not rational, no," she replied.
"But she babbles a great deal. Most
of it is incoherent and of no sense
at all. But some few phrases recur
continually. She is always asking
for a pen, but given either a pen
or a pencil she cannot use them.
She makes meaningless marks on
paper and then throws them down.
And she says over and over,
'Double you, double you.' Whether
she means the letter W or what
she means, I don't know. But it's
everlastingly, 'Double you, double
you,' and once she said clearly, 'R9
member, double you!' and then she
went off into unconsciousness
again."
"Thank you." Stone said, speak
ing so fervently that the nurse
stared.
