The cherry figure is a cent high er than paid last year. So far as has 'been revealed. Royal . Anne offers this season hare been a (.-cent contract with market guar antee. ; Some canners hold that ft Is till slightly early to tell Jost what the cherry prospects will be this year, bat the best available Information .now Is for a slight to crease over last year In the Sa lem growing- area. However, or chards are showing spotted con ditions In cherries, Jnst as with prunes this year. Around Dallas, the cherry crop la said to hold generally 'excellent prospects; in the lowlands nearer Salem the prospect Is up In some orchards, down in others. In general, later blooming trees hold better pros pects than those which came in to bloom early. Backyard cherry (rowers in Salem apparently will are a short crop. The Dalles Crop Poor The Dalles Royal Anne crop is reported, at this stage, to hold prospect of not more than a 40 per cent normal crop,, according to word here. i Gehlhar, in Verifying purchase of brining cherries at 6 cents, de clared there Is a strong wish on pert of both growers and barrel lers that the cherry market, do not sky rocket as hare berries this season, for the essential rea ion that the brine industry is Just becoming firmly established here and unreasonable market may play havoc with the whole brining industry In this section.

He Sva no aridence of being- under i least emotion, His tiisclosnre bad been made in the dispassionate narrative tone of an elderly adven turer describing early activities partly to be deplored and yet in which hs takes a certain relish in reviewing. Isobel was staring at him in tently, lids narrowed, her expres sion rather of perplexity than of shock or horror. Sandy understood her problem which was In fact his own. Hs was unable to decide whether to accept the Colonel's con fession as being true In whole, in part, or to dismiss it all as the In vention of a mind once brilliant but now returned to the childish in : dulgence of imagination one might find in a young boy who has crammed his head with stories of wild adventure. Perhaps the quartette come here to bleed the Colonel and to profit as much as possible by his brain softening had heard it all before, - Sandy reflected. Vinckers however looked puzzled, dubious.

Isobel, who . k,m. ahrl m decision about what she had Just heard said gently, almost rnauigenuy - "That is all very terrible. Uncle A. knt tn tTl tha trtrth I'm not SO surprised as you might think.

Sandy drew a deep breath. Then he glanced at Vinckers' face and nearly laughed. For If that am-kUob-manor had nreriouslv looked disappointed his fsee now showed an utter dismay. It was plain to Sandy that the cable to Vln.lra' I art anfbor. his best bower, was on the point of nap ping to leave him nopeiessry saruh Toe fresh blow that ensued made Sandy feel as if Mouse swaying gently had fallen on him.

Ssndv guessed that ha was exerting all his power of will to subdue old impulses, apply the dis cipline of recent years to the fatal temper of early ones- Vinckers eyed him steadfastly but not insolently. Hester, less respectful, was mors imprudent through her disbelief that this leonine old man, who like an old and broken spirited kins of beasts had crept off to a grotto, still possessed his accredited force of bygone years. She drew out a gold monogrammed . ease and lighted a thick Russian cigarette. She edged a little closer to Vinckers, who put his arm about her. Hester, Sandy perceived, stood in no great awe of the Colonel nor of his ponderous' mount, though the elephant's eyes were twinkling at her none too reas surfngiy. - Vinckers broke the short tense silence by saying evenly: "I'd have to be a sillier fool that I am, sir, to steal gems from the Banda Rajah.' "That would be safer than trying to make a ; fool of him, Vinckers, here and now. I am convinced that Sin stole those gems. Ton hsd bet r hand them over and at once." The Colonel had his voice at least under control, also under pressure. He appeared to let it out cautiously from his big chest. His command ing features also had obeyed the order. "As you were." A mere hu man might have uought that the slracco blast ox rage bad passed. But Mouse waa not deceived. His trunk and ears were restless. "Others had access to tbe grotto. sir," Vinckers said. "I would scarcely steal gems when I knew that you were bound to discover their lees immediately, and that nothing would infuriate you more. Especially when I hoped for some thing better." The Colonel leaned forward. "Vinckers, again I say that you lie. , ajooarzaa in the eyes and deny that you took them.". Vinckers glanced up at the Colo nel, then let his gaze falL It oc curred to Sandy that a paretic could scarcely stare a man down. Vinckers stepped back, loosing the arm half around Hester's waist. The motion seemed to startle Mouse. A sinuous wave ran down his trunk, Then it extended more stiSy, seenv insr to point at Vinckers. or at Hea ter close against him accusingly. Hester, xneateneo at tne way ta which the lip at the end of the ap palling proboscis appeared to men ace hier face, almost touching tt flung up the hand in which was held her lighted cigarette in its long Ivory holder, and then as if sud denly irritated beyond prudence at the prehensile tip opening and shut ting almost far her face she jabbed at it with the lighted end of bar cigarette. The elephant gave a whistling snort. The Mr ears went back, then came suddenly and rigidly forward. Hester shrank back with a stifled shriek. Moose,, incensed and ae doubt excited at her sudden loss of courage, thrust forward his great head.' Before Mike could exert any restraint, Mouse's trunk rolled out at the terrified woman. Its clutch ing tip fastened on the shoulder of her Unit dress, gripped a bight of the thin stuff ano! snatched it away. The whole of it Hester shrieked again shrinking farther hack. Be fore she could get clear of tbe decep tive reach af the stretching probos cis Mouse laid hold of what waa left of tlM" woman's scanty covering, whipped it away with a ripping of silk to leave her stark. . And then, as Mouse gave a sort of flirt to the fabric before flinging; it aside, a bright shower of gems that flashed fine scintillating rays of fire in the lurid light of the torches, planted and still burning there, fell tinkling on to the smooth flagging. The Colonel, from his place on the elephant's back, failed to dis cover this detail of the are man's denouement. But he realized what had happened her and gave a harsh exclamation. Mike struck his heel behind Mouse's ear, and the ele phant swung suddenly aside. (To be continued) I eawrtaat ItSt ar am Bear C YTheat Losses Run Heavily Nearly 4-ent Fall Comes ?
