The Story With a Point All the machinery in a large factory stop ped suddenly one day. Not a sinjrle mechanic in the place could discover what the trouble was. A wire was sent to an expert in a nearby city. He came on first train. In the meantime several acres of ma chinery and a few thousand men were idle. The expert arrived. He brought with him a little tool bag. From it he took, a monkey wrench and went to the engine-room. He started at the boiler and tapped the main steam pipe with the wrench for a distance of 15 feet. There he stopped. No one knew why. But the expert's practiced ear had lo e a t e d the obstruc tion. In five minutes the machinery was in full operation. The expert went into the office and made out his bill. The factory owner looked at the figures, astonished. The amount was for $50.50.. He did not Frank A.

Wash ington, Jan. 24. If a river and harbor bill Is framed this session. Representa tive Hawley will endeavor to secure the adoption of a provision approving the new Tillamook Bay project and appro priating $200,000 to begin construction, as has been recommended by the Army Engineers and Secretary of War. The SDDroved project calls for a total ex penditure of $814,000, half of whloh Is to be borne by the Federal Government and half by the local community, so that If Congress appropriates izoo.ovo this session, an additional appropria tion next year of $207,000 will meet the Government's obligation, and the other $407,000 will be raised by the Port of Tillamook and the Port of Bay City. The report of the Army Engineers, recommending an $814,000 Tillamook Droject. has just been printed, as document, and this document shows how close this project came to aban donment. Original Project Modified. When the tlrst survey and estimate was made In 1910 the people of Tilla mook Bay and vicinity were asking for a 20-foot channel across the bar at the entrance to the bay, a 16-foot channel to Bay City, and a 14-foot channel to Tiilnmook City, with a straightening of the channel of Hoouarten Slough. The board, con sisting of Colonel John Biddle. Major Jay J. Morrow and Major c w. nuts, submitted a plan to carry out these ideas. They found that a north Jetty 6700 feet lung would cost $a58.015; a south Jetty 7300 feet long would cOBt $1,331,680. and dredging and channel work would bring the cost up to $2, 206.000, and that $20,000 would be re quired annually to maintain the chan nels within the bay. In submlttir these estimates, the board said: "Much of this work is not essential to the commercial development of Tilla mook Bay. It Is believed that deep water across the bar and a channel of good depth to some point within the bay, reasonably close to the entrance, would provide all necessary facilities for marketing the great lumber re sources which are tributary to the bay. Further. It Is believed thht the proposed straightening and deepening of Ho quarten Slough would not result In benefits commensurate with the cost, as even were this work accomplished mills for lumber manufacture would locate below the slough. The board Is therefore of opinion that it is not ad visable for the United States to under take the Improvement of Hoquarten Slough or of the channel between Ho quarten Slough and Bay City, either wholly or partly at the expense of the United States, beyond the scope of the existing project, which provides for a depth of nine feet at Jiigh water through these channels." New Proposal Submitted. Accordingly the estimates were re vised, and a project costing $1,744,000 was substituted, contemplating the two jetties, and a limited amount of dredg ing. Bay City offered to contribute J2O0.000 ' towards this work, but the port -of Tillamook held out because It was demanding a deeper channel. The engineers did not believe a deeper channel was necessary, and held that the whole thing be held up until the ports of Bay City and Tillamook could reconsider. This was done, and In a report dated June 14. 1911. Major Mor row reported that a new proposition had been received from the interested localities, conditioned upon a further revision of the projeot. He then said: "It is the belief of this office that the construction of the north Jetty, if entirely built within two years from the time of starting, and to the section recommended by the special board, will give quick results and to some extent lasting results on the bar, and that after its completion the necessity for the south Jetty will not appear for some considerable period, possibly not until the section Is considerably modi tied by the seas. It is believed that the north jetty should be constructed first." The matter then was referred to the River and Harbor Board of Engineers, and under date of August 1, 1911, they made their final report, which' has been approved by the Chief of Engineers and Secretary of War. In this report they said: "The matter has now taken shape In a proposition presented through and recommended by the district officer, for a partial execution of the project up to Bay City, on the basis of the locality paying one-half of the cost. It Is proposed to dredge the channel to Bay City as originally contemplated, and to construct the north Jetty only, leaving the question of the necessity for the south Jetty to be determined in the fu ture. The district o'fficer expresses the opinion that one jetty would produce good results, and to some extent last ing ones, and that the necessity for kjck, however. The result was worth the charge, but he could not understand how any man could have nerve enough t o charge $50.50 for 5 minutes ' work. He didn't under stand what the odd amount of 50 cents could be for. He paid the bill with a check and asked the expert why he had not made it an even $50. The machinist replied: "I have charged yon 50 cents for fixing the thing. The $50 is for know ing how." .mjiis. .s.'MIP"!l'W'""'J'"M"l""'J'"i ' of the New Theatre- This as a sample of the short stories.

The estimate for the work now proposed is $814,000, of which amount the localities propose to pay one-half.

But granting that, did the Coun tess' servant, Badur Kahn, exercise over her a strange, mysterious control learned in India, and did this control compel Lady Urshott to be so solicitous about the fate of the White Cockatoo that it led to her death ?
