PAOE STX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, IfEDFORI). OREGOX, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 193 J. Outrageous Fortune 6y KdVuei WetamWA "It's Chapter 46 THE POLICE "lAROUtKE heard Jim Bay, all right." They eame out Into the open. Kitty and Jock wera clo,1, to" gather, whispering. The torch played oa Jim again. Kitty ran for ward. "The next clue ta the Heart and Hand at Hinton. We can all go on together It'll be much more fun. Hurry up there are more cars coming!" Jim slipped a hand through Caro line's arm. They orossed to the other car and he helped her In. She and Kitty had the back seat Jock Anderson took the wheel. They passed a couple of cars In the lane, and Kitty screamed out, "We've beaten you! You'll have to hurry!" As soon as they were out on the main road Jim spoke. "I'm afraid I don't want to go to the Heart and Hand." Jock Anderson said nothing. Kitty gave a stifled giggle. Jim spoke again. "I don't think you're deaf, Ander on, but perhaps you don't speak mlng. The light swept over tnen all and waB gone again. Kitty saw the back of Jock's head, Jim Ran dal's profile, and, as she turned to get the glare out of her eyes, Caro line. She took Carolines face back Into the darkness. What did she want to look like that for? It spoilt the la-k. It made her feel bb if some one had poured cold wator down the back of her neck. , THEY came Into Hinton, ana stopped at Major Anderson's gate. The house faced the Heart and Hand across the village street, a circumstance which had op pressed the landlord for twenty years. A man may be sober, honest, and law-abiding, without finding It agreeable to have the eye of the law for ever trained npon mi premises. "I haven't seen a drunken man in Hinton for fifteen years," Major Anderson was wont to say. He lived In a low two-storied house which was hardly more than a cot tage. It held himself, a quiet eld erly sister who kept cats, and spo radic nephews and nieces who turned things upside down and left rather a blank when they went away. The party of four had reached the porch, when the door of the house was opened, showing the lighted CUT INTEREST ON U WASHINGTON, Nov. 13. (AP) The Reconstruction corporation today reduced interest on loans to railroads from 5 to 4 per cent a year for the 12 months beginning last November 1, with the understanding that the carriers will use the savings to em ploy additional men during the win ter. Jefise H. Jones, chairman of the corporation, said: "This action Is based on requests' for a reduction In interest rates from a number of railroad execu tives who have offered to use the amount of such reduction together with substantial additional funds in making extraordinary expenditures during the next, six months. "This would mean expenditures for labor, equipment and material, over and above their budget for this period In excess of the program pre sently contemplated Dy tnem, the purpose being to help promote president's recovery program." Duck Hunters Drown. DETROIT. Nov. If. (UP) Two men. hunting ducks in a small bost, were believed to have been drowned In Lake St. Clair Sunday. St. Clair shores police located their boat over turned about a mile from shore. ATTIT PORTLAND, Nov. 13 (AP) Grave concern continued In Oregon today over word from Washington, D. O., that Secretary Ickes, public works administrator, has declared Oregon and other Pacific coast states al ready have received their share of public works money. Marshal N. Dana, northwest reg ional advleo for the public works admintsti'.'tlon, Immediately t e 1 e graphed Ickes for an explanation. "We've beaten you, rtnless you've been Introduced. Let me Introduce myself. My name Is Randal Jim Randal." "Well?" Jock Anderson'B voice was defiant, , "Well, I don't want to go to the Heart and Hand, but I needn't take you out of your way. I suppose Major Anderson's still just across the road I don't seem to see him moving house." Caroline sat up straight and stiff. The blood thumped In her ears. No body spoke. "I've got business with Major Anderson,", said Jim In the most ordinary voice in the world. Jock Andorson found his tongue. "I was going to take you there anyhow," he said roughly. Kitty leaned forward, elbowe on knees, quick breath nearly choking her. What was going to happen next. Would he try and hit Jock over the head and grab the wheel? And if he did, would It be any good her trying to ecrag him? "What a lark!" said Kitty ecstati cally. She did not say It aloud, be cause Jim was speaking agalik "You needn't have bothered to nut Miss Leigh's car out of action. He cut the loads," he explained over his shoulder to Caroline. Then, "I don't know If she'll want to run you In for It, but I expect It's actionable all right. We can aek your unci he's sure to know." TpHB! car swerved. I- "I should think you'd have enough to ask hlra on your own ac count," growled Jock. "Oh. we'll got down to you. I daresay you won't mind watting. The drumming sound In Caroline's ears ceased. She was very cold, and there was a sick weight on her heart She wont on sitting up straight. Hor hands gripped one another deeperately. 81nce they bad come to the end, she must keep ber head up. Beside hor Kitty drew a long breath of disappointment and sat back. There wasn't going to be scrap after all. Of course you never knew he might be walling to got Jock oft his guard. She had better keep her eyes open. A car passed them without dim- You'll have to hurryl" hall. The man who bad opened It E KILLED Ifl CAFE PROPRIETOR S'MATTER POP By C. M.

"Just a minute Gray." Then, as he caught sight of his nephew, "Hullo, Jock you're back early. Whom have yon got with you? I can't see." Jim Randal took Jock by the shoulder and put him out of tha way. I expect you've forgotten me, Major Anderson," he said. "I'm Jim Randal." Caroline followed hlra Into the hall. There was a dond silence tor momont. Kitty and Jock came In and the door was shut. Then; Inspector Gray moved forward and' spoke. It you are Mr. Randal or Haie; Place, I must ask you to accompany; me to the police-station." Jim looked past him at Caroline. "It's all right don't worry," he said. Then he turned to Major Ander in. "I came here to make a statement about the Van Berg affair, sir." "A voluntary etatoment? "Yei. I want to make a state ment I came here to make one." Major Anderson opened the door behind him. "Come Into my study. Jock, you'd better take Kitty and Miss Leigh home." Caroline turned piteous oyes on him. "Major Anderson, please let me come In. I want to make a state ment too. I know some of It bet ter than he does." She came up to him. He surely couldn't have the heart to keop her out. She blossed the Inspector when he said, "I think wo'd better have her In sir." And then there were four p" them In the small smoky room, with lta neat writing-table and Its comfort able shabby chairs. Caroline sat down on one of them, and the door was shut.
