Ivy and Bower bad no more thas reached the bead ol the cabin atalr than Helen, suitcase In band and creaming now not with rage but wtb triumph, and wet to the eliln. wat balf way op IL A moment more and abe was In ber mistress' arms, eultcaso and all. ana telling everybody all ebout everything, Tbo diversion wa fortunate. A heavy cargo-batch. Immediately on poelte the moored raft, had yielded at last to the terrible pressure of air anxiety and self-reproach. To be ad vantageously cast away, one should bavo several days lo wblcb to pre pare. Id a burrtod aoatchlng up ol whatever may or may not be useful, many things go overlooked. The shipwrecked couple bad tea and coffee. Tbey bad a variety oi canned meata, vegetables and aoupi, Tbey bad some tins of olsculta. Tbey bad a bag of sugar and a bag of salt, matches and a flre-ai, some changes of clothes. Bowers bad tbe wherewithal to keep himself cleanly shaved for f number of months. Ivy bad om face powder and a quarter-slick ol rouge. It pleased Bowers to think tbat he bad brought off his guns wltb plenty of ammunition He waa glad tbat his pocket-knife was not a toy. But he dreaded tbe moment when Ivy should say tbat aba was thirsty and be would have to confess that be had not thought to bring water) Suppose tbey reached the volcanic laland toward wblcb tbey were bead ed and found no water 7 This waa not likely, but was within tbe possibili ties. He became unduly despondent, and then be remembered that then were aure to be coconut palms, naS this tbougbt cheered hlra. THE! coconut ta not an occasional crop. Upon every tree lo full bearing there are at all times rniti The Boldnro went down by the head, and buret wltb a sound Ilko tbe eg. plosion of dynamite. Anyone In the vicinity of the flying fragmenta and splinters might have been most seri ously hurt, Tbe Boldero, arrested In her sink ing, now began to make np for lost time. From tbe ship to the raft was bow oo more than a big step. Ivy, en cumbered by Helen, did not even aeed a helping band. Tbey cast loose, and tor a time, not wlahlng to be anywbere near tbe Boldero when she made her final plunge, Bowers paddled frantically wltb the blade halt of a broken oar He made ble odlng and the breeze, etrong enougb at moments to ruffle the surface of tbe aea. caught them and had soon carried them beyond any possible reach of suction. Bowers, bis back to the Boldero, ataered for the volcano But Ivy kept Dim posted. Presently she said: "You bad better look now, If you want 10 aee tbe lasl of ber." Tbe Boldoro was going down by the head and the end came very sud dan ly. Tbe ship's stern rose until the pro peller showed balf dear of tbe sea. and the bows sank until the for castle-bead would never be anything to anyone but a memory of a great happiness. Thereafter tbe Boldero seemed rather to molt away Into nothing than to sink. y ITH the Boldoro afloat, It would ' ' have been ,asy enougb to est! mat the prosrese ol the raft, but with nothing upon wbkb to trlnugu late vision. It seemed as If the raft were standing still. Tbo volcano on TIroi Island had almost dlsannenred In the brightness of the young day It was scurclmig hot and tbe breeze waa more a hope than a fact. Tbo esi'npcd menagerie, ear, horn, tooth and talon had van lihed completely, and Mowers' occa sional effort to prnpol the raft with the broken oar did not meet with any great success. It seemed as It the raft were ambitious to spin like a lop. Although Bowers showed a cheer ful face he was up to the ears In In all stages or development, frorj flower to aeed. Each nut stays upon the tree for twelve or thirteen montba, and the half-developed green nuts contain a water which Is sweeter and more refreshing than the real thing, ind which may be drunk, In substitution, for all months or more. Ivy said she was thirsty and Bow era mad bis confession. "There was plenty of time," he aid, "to tblnk about everything, but I lust didn't, and all I can do Is to be ashamed and sorry." "Why Isn't It lust as much my fault as It Is yours!" aald Ivy. And of course It waa, but tbe man would not admit IL "I am afraid," be said, "that we shall be mightily uncomfortable and dry before we et ashore." "How do you know," she asked, "that we'll find water when we do get there?" , "There will be coconuts," he aald. "There lan't any newly made land In this pnrt of the world and all tbe old land grows coconuts. The nuts are washed overboard and drift all over the world, and wherever tbey are washed ashore Into suitable con ditions of soli and climate they sprout and befriend man. "But I brought along a chart. Let's hare a look at that, and maybe we can find out something about the place we're beading for" He had folded the chart twice and weighted it wltb a gun-case He now unfolded It. and bad presently lo cated the one sinnll body of land which had upon It an oceanngrapb er a symbolUatlon of y active vol cano. "This must be It," he said "No wonder Big Bon and Lurllne made for It." "1 wonder why It la railed Tiger Island?" asked Ivy. "For some reason, you may be sure, that has nothing to do wtib tigers May tie from Its shape See It hss four distinct leg and a head Maybe somebody thinks It look' like a tiger." (Cttfit'l.

PHOENIX, ArlE., Sept. 31 (API Dynamite shattered the quiet the Salt River valley had enjoyed, since white farmers recently withdrew their demand that Japanese and Hindus evacuate their lands. Three bombs were hurled on Japa nese farms early yesterday. Twenty acres of farmland were Inundated when one explosion tore out an Irri gation dam. The home m R. Sugino was slightly damaged In another blast. In all three cases of dynamite were set off In Irrigation ditches near the homes of Japanese farmers. No one was Injured but the Rev. Junro A. Kashltanl, Japanese leader, demanded protection of "life and property of Japanese" In the valley, antl-ortental agitation has "gone too far," he said, In protesting to Consul Oeneral Tonokazs Hort In Los An geles.
