Story by John Fleming Wilhon
Despite the unusually heavy rains
which are sweeping the Pacific coast,
Director Robert I,eonnrd, Kiln Hall
and the Rex players are working late
these nights on the interiors of "The
Master Key". Some splendid seashore
scenes were tuken during the filming
of the recovery of the sea-chest from
the bottom of the Pacific ocean by
Wilkerson and his men. A special
trip was made to the coast in order
to secure the proper atmosphere.
Director Leonard tool; advantage of
the occasional hills in the rain to
"shoot" old ocean rolling in on x':e
rocky proniotorics at Santa MonicL,
Calif., with bis players enacting the
thrilling scenes comprised in ti 2
latest installment of "The Master
Key".
The Hindu temple scenes , in the
eleventh episode of Mr. Wilso1'
serial, were taken in India ntontns
ago upon the occasion of Mr. Leonards
visit to the Orient. At that time "Tho
Mnster Key" was in preparation, but
Mr. Leonard thought the opportunity
a good one to snap a few scenes with
an East India atmosphere and native
actors. British sailors in port were
secured to play the roles in the rob
bery of a native Indian idol from
a Hindu temple an incident of the
eleventh episode.
Some difficulty was experienced in
securing a native Indian actor, for thr
superstition of the rative3 concern
ing their idols or facsimilo reproduc
tions of their Inrcs and peuates is very
strong. By bribing one of the more
"civilize'1" of the natives, however.
Director Leonaid induced him to take
part in the scenes which were filmed
within sound of the tinkling of temple
bells near Calcutta.
Episode eleven of "The Muster Key"
is brimful of excitement. It will be
remembered that Wilkerson and Dore
are both striving to recover the secret
to the rich lode of ore in the nunc'',
which secret is continued in a sea client
which Wilkerson has recovered from
the depths of the Pacific ocean.
Wilkerso.i's ship continues toward
land, and he at once forces the chest
open and makes a search for the pa
per, from which be hopes to learn the
secret of "Tito Master Key" mine. He
fails to find any such slip, but docs
find the indian idol, which he casts n
nido with the other contents as being
worthless.
Meantime, Pore's boat, which has
been pursuing Wilkerson's vessel,
leaches shore. Mrs. Darnell up
braids Wilkerson for his seeming
stupidity and another quarrel betwear
them ensues. Members of the' crew
examine the seemingly worthless con
tents of the chest, and one of the
tinders appropriates the idol among
other articles, with a view to selling
them in port.
Upon arriving in San Diego, Mrs.
Darnell goes to a hotel, while Wilkor
t;on remains to pay off the captain and
crew. Dole's boat puts into dock and,
with the captain mil Ruth, ho hastons
to find Wilkerscn and the mysterious
idol.
In the ' itormin, the sailor, with his
idol, goes ashore with his ditty-bag
and seek : out a pawnshop where he
may sell his treasures. On the ar
rival of Dore and Ruth nt Wilkerson's
boat another altercation ensues be
tween the two enemies, the respective
sea captains interfering. Wilkerson
gives Dore the laugh but the latter
at once real ir.es that Harry Wilkerson
hns not found the papers.
Willii'ison goes into town to rash a
tht'i'k with which to pay off the rap
tain. Dore theri'iiN)ii ipioitions the

recognizes it and hastens to his
squnllid quarters whera ho holds it
close to him in a pathetic manner. As
ho gazes at the little image it seems
to dissolve from view, and .". series of
pictures of the past appear.
The Hindu sees himself as a watcher
in a temple. A sailor enters the
sacred confines and watches him roam
about. Hp sees him standing before
a sacred shrine. The Hindu turns
from the visitor and takes up his re
ligious duties where be had left off
when he first saw the visitor. Later
be notices that the sailor is gone nnd
on walking to the shrine, in the per
formance of a sacred rite ho finds that
one of the idols is gone. He immedi
ately commences a search for it and,
recalling the incident of the sailor, he
runs forth and gives an alarm. He is-
severely censured by the high priest
and is sent forth to find the idol.
Ho visits the wharves nnd when
hoarding one of the ships ho peers
through a porthole and in a cabin sees
the sailor gloating over the idol. He
moves nearer and the sailor, seeing
him, thrusts the idol into his chest and
closes the lid. Other sailors cbme a
long the dock and question tho Hindu
Tho first sailor comes from bis cabin
and joins tho party. Realizing that
the Hindu ic searching for the idol,
the sailor tells his comrades to throw
him ovcrbocrd. The Hindu is there
upon, seized and thrown into the water
He swims ashore and on being un
able to board the ship again, is forced
to watch her as she sails away. He
returns to the temple and is told that
he io bn-iishod until be returns with
the sacred image. He returns to the
wharves and boards another vessel.

Ruth and Dore are scon to enter the
pawnshop with Wilkerson following
close behind although they are un
aware of it. Ruth and Dore question
the shopkeeper closely, but the latter
evades their queries.

GOVKRNMKNT CONDUCTS WOOD
WASTE EXCHANGE
The latest business-aid service insti
tuted by the government is a wood
wRte exchange conducted by thi
Forest Service in Washington. D. C
it nims to assist lumbermen and man
ufacturers of wood to use each others
waste to mutual advantage, thus ef
fecting a largo saving not only in
forest material hut in money as well.
.More than -10 manufacturers of
wooden r.rticles have asked to bo put
on the exchange list.
Twice a month tho exchange sends
out a circular headed "Opportunities
to Buy Waste", containing tho names
and addresses of factories having
waste wood for sale, with exact in
formation as to species, sizes, form,
quantities. Similarly, anoiher circu
lar headed "Opportunities to Sell
Waste," gives the specific teyuiro
ments of wood using plants which de
sire to buy waste material.
To illustrate: A furniture maker
in Michigan wrote to the forest ser
vice asking bow to dispose of sugar
maple blocks r.rd sticks which were
cut off in the process of furniture
making Mid which ho had to sell
merely as fuel. Samples were ob
tained from him and tho Service then
located a scrubbing brush manufac
turer who used small' maple blocks for
brush backs. The result was that the
furniture m:-.ker was enabled to sell
his wrsto at a much higher price than
it brough; as fuel, while the brush
maker was onnbled to buy brush-back
material at u much lower Pgtiro than
it had been costing him to buy maple
lumber : nd cut it up.

are furnishing tho doctor the land and
he will build a hospital upon it im
mediately. There are two men in this vicinity
that were certainly lucky to escape
the sad accident to the Randolph. One
was Roy Gibson, son-in-law of Mr.
and Mrs. Sam Adams who live up the
river a few miles. Mr. Gibson came
in on the Randolph as engineer, bat
decided to visit his wife's people for
a few days and got Henry Colvin to
take his place. Tho other lucky fe!
low was Sheriff Bailey, who left here
that morning with the intention of
going to Bnndon on tho Randolph to
have some dental work done. On

the dentist had come to Port Orford
io the sheriff took the. stage to Port

Messrs. Johnson and Laird, with
Harley L. Johnson of Reston as man
nger, this week inaugurated a fast
auto stage service between Coos Bay
and Roscburg, via Coquillc and the
old Coos .Bay wagon road. They arc
making the trip through in fast time
and with the inauguration of the ear
ly morning auto service between Coos
Bay and Coquille, they expect to con
nect with the 2 o'clock train at Rose
burg each afternoon. They have ar
ranged to have tho Lockhart-I'arsons
drug stores at Marshfield act as their
agents in Marshfield while Mr. John
son is looking after the Roseburg end.

ait (I, will take them in a fine Cadillar
to Laird's, thence by stage over the
17 miles of the canyon, and thence by
auto from Johnson at the base of the
mountain road, to Roseburg. The ser

the morning and has been landing the
pas,L-ngers in Coquille about !i o'clock
each afternoon. Chas. Archambeau
who has been driving stage on the old
Coos Bay wagon road for 1!) years
without a serious accident, and Mr.
McCulIough, are driving the canyon
making it easily in four hours.
Tho new service is the fastest trom
the Bay for sometimes with the
Southern Pacific and the rate has been
fixed at ISO each way.
The old Coos 'Bay ' wagon road is
now in the best shape it has been in
for years. There was little traffic
over it during the rainy season and
in consequence the road has dried up
in good shape. Road supervisors all
along tho line are making minor im
provements in it and it is expected
that the trip can bo easily made in
between eight and nine hours. At
any rate, they arc easily able to make
the connections and have arranged
to take care of all passengers, e.tr
