TABLK nOCK.'ore), Aug. 31.
(Special.) Several . parties in
search of hay have been in this
district during the past week, but
report farmers not anxious to sell,
owing to the short crop and pros
pects ut hay advancing in price.
Those who are offering hay for
sale are asking $lti.r.O for looe
alfalfa In burns and $20 for baled.
Many strangers are in-miring
about land for sale or rent In this
vicinity and a check over of s;4l-s
made recently and prices asked
show land values to be actually
much higher than they were in
the boom days ten years ago.
Everything will be in readiness
by next Monday morning for the
opening of the fall term of school
here, when It Is expeetfd that pu

A WARNING
iN Friday, ihey buried poor
Pell, and I attended the fu
neral. A number of journalists
were there, and Professor Laxton.
and some villagers. But besides
myself only Mr. Fotherbury was
present of all the people who had
seen Pell die.
After dinner that evening I went
up to have a talk with Cousin
John. 1 had never mentioned the
tragedy of Fell to him. I got a
little shock this evening when he
mentioned it to mo. He had seeii
A note hurled th'rouQh the window a warning trom Veronica.
In the newspapers that Pell was
to be burled that day.
"You went to the funeral?" he
asked.
"Naturally."
"You were a friend of Poll?"
"I rather liked Pell, but I met
him for the first time not more
than a month ago."
"Ah. you liked him ..."
But he did not pursue that line.
He sat silent for a moment or
two; then went off on a fresh tack
"Did Laxton ever meet Pell?"
"So far as I know, he dldn t.
until Pell was"
"Killed," said Cousin John, look
ing narrowly at me.. "Laxton took
a (treat Interest In these excava
tions. Wan ho there much?"
"Agalnj 8 far as I know, he
never well, no, 1 think not?"
1 waa about to say that Laxton
never saw the excavations till the
day ot Pell's death, and then re
membered the escapade of the Sun
Jay night. 1 had a sort of Intui
tion I ought not to lie tn Cousin
loltii, even about that.
And then, surprisingly, he switch
3d off the subject and snld:
"You must be very fond ot little
Veronica."
"I well yes, I suppose.' At
east 1 admire Mies Seabroke
reatly."
1 stammered like a schoolboy.
"Little Veronica Is admirable,"
fald Cousin John, "hut wo don't
lo this sort ot thing for people
we Just adrnlro."
1 began to feel huffy. 1 did not
want Cousin John anatomizing my
feeling for Veronica.
"My mother has a liking fur
Mrs'. Seabroke," said I, shortly.
"Yes your mother Is a far
lighted woman. Rut about Veroti
ca. Mr. Urcnofen. Make me a
prnmlse."
"Not rlthout knowing Its terms,"
said I.
'Of course not. I'm not Ver

"Oh, but you know I can't

given to Veronica secretly. It's

Con a in John broke oft suddenly,
gaxlug out into the gardeu.
"Don't stir," he said. "Just look.
There's somebody moving behind
the hedge."
A close-clipped hedge of esca).
Ionia, now glowing with red waxen
flowers, grew between the lawn
and my mother's rose garden. At
10 o'clock, the light was Eottt.
and. t was cot very easy to see
who moved If anybody.
I watched for several seconds
before detecting a .wavering and
rustling ot tho hedge la one place.
Somebody parted tho bushes in
order apparently to look through.
"You see?' said Cousin JoIid, in
a whisper.
"Yes," said I. "I'll go down and
And out who"
He put a hand on my arm.
"No, Mr. Grenofen. It's useless.
Who's there watching doesn't mat-'
ter at all. It somebody watcheB
then It's all ovoc . i'm .vary sorry
to have let you In tor this."
j "For this what?" I asked. ''
: '"You'll llnd your houso Is stir '
rounded by watchers.' I don't pro
pose to be taken here. It wa,
pretty hopeless from the first after
the death of Pell. So I'll wish you
good by and If anything happens
It wou't happen at Woodcot."
"But. Cousin John," said I,
"you're probably Imagining thlnss,
and. If you aren't what about
v'eronlcal-Mtss Seabroke? 1 prom
ised her. '
"Veronlci will understand. I'll
have dash for It, with your help
It'll be dark enough In half tin
hour. They'll wait till the house
is quiet before they close In. Sri
ask Mrs. Orenofen to -keep thi
lights on downstairs. Then se
soon ns It's dark enough I'll get
out through the - kitchen garden
and nnioSH they're Blackwatef men
I'll glvo them a good run for their
m'oney."1 ; i
I was dumbfounded, tor while he
spolte he drew out from the dtp
pocket of a pair ot my trousers,
which ho was wearing, a nasty-
looking automatic pistol, examined
lis magazine and safety catch, and
put It back again.
"It's the one way. You can help
me If yon will. Coma as far as
Ihe wood, and If we're surprised
we'll both rUrt In different direc
tions; that'll confuse them. There's
Just halt a chance. You enn ex
plain oh, anything you like. I
say! He's coming!"' ' '
I looked out on the darkening
lawn Just lu time to see the nub
ot a shadow acrmis It, and at the
same moment there came a whl
ring of the bell from the door. Ile
fore I could get art my feet bump
and a rattle on the floor of1 the
room caused my heart -t'A miss a
beat. '
Cousin John Jumped from his
chair and picked up something,
It was a piece ot paper wrapped
r.round a pebble.
The same idea struck both of
us. I 'opened the door and wo
went out on to tho landing. -
1 held a maioh while he pulled

Whore the pine trees on the nioun

Murmur soft; as breezes wake
ftweetnst music mid their branches,
-, On the way t6 Crater Lake.

On the banks uf the Rogue River,
At the famous Rogue-Elk Inn. .
Endless pleasure, here, . awaits

Of tho- Rogue, nt close of day,
Or the whispers In the plno trees.
At the- time when fairies play,

As they dance amid the shadows;
When the work iff day Is dono; '
Here we find, amid the mountains, i
At the close of summer's day.
Quiet, peace, and joy entrancing, 1
'TIs our .wish tu always stay.
Nature calls us with the music
Of the water and the wind,
lllils us look, to God who loves us,
Uids us take our cares to Him;
And If we would learn life's les
sons, - ..
Loarn, for us, the one, best way,
We should spend some time with
nature,
Where tho fairies dance and play.
'Neath the tall and bending tree
tops, fn the shadows, and the moon
Uleems to hflng so close atiove us
Coaxing lovers fond, to croon
Of the future days, so splendid,
An they, their new life begin:
Such a plnce you'll find near Med

And 'tis known as Rogue-Elk
Inn.
Famous1 for fine chicken dinners,
t Ks minis for It's paintings rare:
Famous for It's sylvan setting,
Fsmnus for It's mountain air;
On the bsnks of the Rogue River,
On the rosd toward the rim
Of Crater- Lake, you're welcome,
At Ihe famous Rogue-Elk Inn.
