JULY 15, 1910 Price 5 Cents eeting erritt for Local S Board of Trade Revives Question of Incorporation Six Months' Time Limit Has Expired and Citizens Are Getting Busy A meeting to discuss the matter.of incorporation has been called, for Menzies' hall on the evening, of Tuesday, August 2nd. At last night's meeting of the board of trade the question was revived and the public meeting: authorized. It. is the popular feeling amongst the business men and citizens in general that Merritt should be incorporated. Several months ago the project was formally launcned at a public meeting but it was then thought best to hoist it for six months so as to secure the; fullest measure of government assistance this year. The six months' limit has now expired and it is opportune that . the question, again be considered. The- population of Merritt is growing fast and it will soon be impossible to successfully grapple With local conditions unless the town is incorporated. The questions of fire protection, .electric lighting and'water wbr\ufffd\ufffds as well.as sidewalks and other local improvements must sooner or later become pressing and once incorporated the town can meet these exigencies in a systematic way. With incorporation practically completed this fall it will be possible to hold the civic elections next winter and thus formally launch the new municipality. George Riches reached Merritt Wednesday night and is being placed in the temporary yards to the rear of the new Coldwater hotel. Four cars in all have arrived bringing a complete stock of the better grades of building lumber. It is Mr. Riches' intention to construct a modern livery stable and he will conduct it in connection with his lumber yard and general provision business. NEW RECTOR COMING Rev. Thomas Walker who will take charge of the new Anglican parish at Merritt, will be here by the end of the month. He reached Vancouver from his home in England last Tuesday night and after receiving the ordination service will . come to Merritt. At last Sunday afternoon's congregational meeting it was decided to look for a site to construct a rectory, for the new rector. The work of building the church will be rushed and in the meantime the congregation will worship in Hyland's hall. but in a letter to the editor of the News he intimated that he would return to the west very shortly. Merritt will be visited amongst the first places and the secretary of the board has been, instructed to communicate wi.tli Mr. Warren and learn the date of his next visit so that arrange-\" ments can be made to banquet him as the representative and head of the Kettle Valley Rail-i way Co. PLANT IS HERE , i The plant for the Coal Hill Syndicate mines arrived Wednes-. day night and is now being installed. The machinery came jal-r ready set up and it was necessary to take it apart to haul it to the. mines and then set it up again. Manager Graham says that it will now be possible to promote development work on a larger scale. \"Coal Hill will soon be amongst the shippers\" he remarked.\" Will Do Honor To J. J. Warren GOVERNMENT SALE IN QUESNEL i Although' comparatively little has as yet been published regarding the auction sale* of 150 lots in the government townsite of Quesnel, to be held on August 1, great interest is nevertheless evinced in the best informed inr vestment'and realty;circles wiith** respect to the opportunities ! in connection with the sale. THE.RECEPTION TO SIR WILFRID No Pains Will Be Spared to Make It a Memorable Affair Hon. Richard McBride, Premier of British Columbia, has received formal notification, through Mr^ -Ralp^Smith^MrPT^Tiar^Sir Wilfrid Laurier, JPrime Minister of Canada, will accept the reception preferred by the provincial government in behalf of the people of British Columbia, and this picturesque and to-be-historic function, which it is intended shall be made one of the most enjoyable and complete events of the kind in Canadian history, is set for the evening of the 17th of August. The parliament build ings on this occasion will be a' blaze of electrical illumination unprecedented' in their extent and effectiveness; the best band available will discourse music on the ample lawns; interiorally the public offices will be a wonderful study in floral decorative art, orchestral music will be provided, a buffet supper will be served, and nothing that good taste or experience can suggest will be left undone to convince Sir Wilfrid of British Columbia's and its Conservative Government's recognition of him as a great Canadian. At this reception, it is understood, the intention of Premier McBride is to invite foremost provincial Liberals to occupy the places of special honor. Head of Kettle Valley Will be Banquetted in Merritt . That Merritt will fittingly mark the inauguration of construction work on the Kettle Valley railway and will make President J. J. Warren the guest of honor at a public function on the occasion of his next visit to Merritt was the text of a resolution passed by the Merritt Board of Trade last night. The matter was mooted by S. N. Dancey and found enthusiastic support amongst the members. The importance of the railroad to the town and district was briefly outlined and the wisdom of commemorating this important epoch J in the history of the town fully confirmed. Mr. Warren is now in the east ANOTHER LUMBER YARD Andrew McGoran is establishing a lumber yard on Voght St. just across from the C. P. R. station where he will carry a full line of all classes of building material incuding lumber, shingles, laths, lime and cement. Two cars of material will be here tonight and Mr. McGoran will erect offices on the ground and mmediately launch into business. of the railway about fifty miles west of the Yellowhead Pass. The other party will start at the town of Lillooet and will push northward and eastward to meet the men working west from Tete Jaune Cache. Secrecy is preserved concerning the probable route of the railway into Vancouver from Lillooet. There are three routes possible, it is declared, but which one will be followed will not be made known for some months. One way Vancouver may be reached is via Howe Sound, another is by way of Harrison Lake and there is a possibility that a pass through the hills may be found at some point lying between the two routes mentioned. The route to be followed from Tete Janue Cache will be practically that taken by the survey which the C. P. R. ran in the early days when it was a toss-up whether that railway would not enter British Columbia by way af the Yellowhead Pass. The route from Tete Jaune Cache will lie up the McClarman River to the divide at the head ofjCanoe River to a low summit; over the divide to Cranberry Lake and then down the North Thompson River to the junction *bfv,that\"stream with the 'Clearwater.- The course will then be up the Clearwater and over the divide at a suitable point to the Bonapart and along the course of this river to Lilloet. The survey parties starting out next week are fully equipped for a long stay, in the field. The one which will work west: from Tete Jaune Cache will proceed to that point by way of Ashcroft. New Conveniences Locally For the Shipping of Cattle working steady and good progress is reported in all branches of the mines. For the first fourteen days of the month exclusive of three holidays the total shipments reached 6000 tons or an average of 545 tons per day. -, While working on a small building to the rear of the Cold- water hotel Sam Hyland met with an accident that has since confined him to his room. He was chiselling a piece of wood when the chisel slipped and entered his right leg just above the knee inflicting an ugly wound. It was fortunately in a fleshy part and in that way the bone escaped. Merritt Looks Real Good to Him Victoria Legislator Predicts a Great Future Here G. T. P. GETTING BUSY Will Run Line Through Lil- =====Ic6etf=to\"Vancouver Next week two Grand Trunk Pacific parties will take the field to locate the route of the branch of that railway to Vancouver. It is learned that one party will work westward from Tete Jaune Cache, a point on the main line At; Middlesboro on Monday evening Rev. W. J. Kidd baptized Ellen Nevins Thompson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Clarke, and on Wednesday evening at Nicola the same clergyman^ ^ap^ized^^^T^eJm^^^^Ada^ danghter of Mr. and Mrs. William Muggeridge. COAL SHIPMENTS Coal shipments from the mines of the Nicola Valley Coal and Coke Co. continue to increase. A staff of nearly 350 men is Henry F. W. Behnsen, member of the legislature-for Victoria, was a \"visitor\"to'\"Merritt oh Wednesday. ''He has gone on to the Okanagan but will return in a few days. \"It is the first time that\" I have ever been in Merritt and I tell you I am more than surprised to find such a good looking town.\" Thus he spoke in discussing his visit. \"I have heard a lot about the Nicola valley and particularly Merritt during the past few weeks for they are very much before the public eye.\" \"Yes, there will be a great future before the town for you have everything here to make a big town. With railroad'construction under way you will see a still greater development. The government-is-doing-its\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdbest\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdto aid the development work through these districts and you will find that Nicola valley will share largely in this respect.\" When Mr. Behnsen returns to Merritt he will likely invest in local realty and thus furnish tangible evidence of his faith in the future of the community. Contract for First Ten Miles of Kel tie Valley Sublet and Work Has Started will be in full swing. LUMBER IS HERE The first consignment of lumber for the lumber yard of Organization plans preliminary 'to construction on the Kettle Valley railway out of Merritt have been completed and actual work is already under way on a small basis. A. V. McDonald to whom the contract for the first ten miles was sublet is now on a tour of the country buying horses to be used in the work. A small camp is now located about one mile from the town in charge of Pat Gorman, who is foreman for Mr. McDonald. The survey crews who are in charge of Chief Engineer A. Mc- Culloch are rushing their end of the work and are now a considerable distance from town. Mr. McCulloch is expected back in Merritt tomorrow evening. In the meantime the office staff is arriving and will be completed by the first of next week. '\ufffd\ufffd. When the work is in full swing there will be several hundred men on the contract because the contractors have decided that the line must be rushed. The fact that the route has been changed and the river will be bridged three miles out and thus put the line on the west side of the river will facilitate matters in that it will provide an easier gradient. Contractor Macdonnell says that while the contract has been sublet for the first ten miles that the other sections are still under his jurisdiction, but will likely be farmed out. Work will start at Penticton in a few days and is already under way at Midway so that the contention of the contractors that the entire line will be completed within two years seems quite feasible. While only a portion of the outfits have arrived the rest will be here in a few days and by the end of next week everything \"We intend to rush the work to an early completion. We mean business and the Kettle Valley should be running inside of two years. We want all the men we can get and should have at least one thousand on the construction of that portion of the line leading out of Merritt. The contract for the first ten miles of the line on this end has been awarded to A. V. McDonald.'' This was the interesting announcement of James Macdonnell, head of the firm of Macdonnell & Gzowski who have the contract for the entire line. \"We will have more to say later as developments occur but in the meantime we will get real busy.\" Mr. Macdonnell went down to Vancouver on Wednesday but will . be back in a few days. A part of the outfits to be used in construction have already ar rived and others will follow. In a few days there will be a number of steam shovels at work as well as an army of men. A. V. McDonald is out through the country purchasing horses and just as soon as the necessary organization work is completed camps will be located and actual construction instituted. It is now determined- that the line will cross the river about three miles from Merritt and follow the west bank. Engineer McCulloch says that a much better grade can be found on that side and the cost of building the bridge will be more than offset by the many advantages that will follow the change in the route. Railroad Accedes to Request of Stockmen\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdBoard of Trade Has Meeting The Canadian Pacific railway will construct cattle corrals at Merritt in the rear of-the present C.P.R. station. Official intimation of this was handed out at last night's meeting of the Merritt Board of Trade by Geo. F. Ransom, chairman of the committee appointed to take up the matter, with the railway company: The local cattle men will place scales in the corrals and every convenience for shippers will be provided. This will mean a big saving for shippers of cattle and horses for in the past they have been obliged to take their shipments through Merritt to Nicola. The railway | company promises to make an , early completion of the . fence along the right-of-way between Merritt and Coutlee. Quilchena Ave. will also be provided with a crossing. S.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdN. Dancey gave notice, of motion that at the.next meeting of the board that he would move to have the board co-operate with local Liberals in securing for Merritt a federal building for the housing of the various governmental services. The matter is now being pressed before the federal government. The suggestion met with hearty approval at the hands of the board. A separate building for the new telephone exchange was the text of another resolution and an announcement was handed out during the discussion that the exchange would be placed in a separate building at the rear of the present postoffice and that an operator would be kept at the board_cohtinuously\\ The question of sidewalks came up again and it was pointed out that the government would give dollar for dollar and money subscribed would be used in building walks oh the street where subscription was obtained. Construction would start in the course of a few days on Voght St. and Quilchena Ave. It was decided to place an advertisement in the fall fair prize list setting forth the advantages of the district. The theory that the Kettle Valley railway will go over the Hope mountains into Vancouver and thus provide a shorter line Continued on page four. CANFORD'S NEW MILL As announced in The News some time ago the mill of the Nicola Valley Lumber Co. at Canford which was destroyed by fire two years ago will be replaced by a much larger mill. The project is in the hands of Vermont capitalists and the chief promoter will be here in a few days. The mill will have a large capacity and will employ many men. The output of the Du.nsmuir mines now owned by the Canadian Collieries Co., will be doubled and inside of two years the daily output will reach 30,000 tons according to the manager. It will mean the employment of niany hundreds of additional men.

Just Stop and Think How Easily You Can Make Money L. M. ALEXANDER Real Estate Broker 412 Hastings St. West. Vancouver, B.C. Early Days in Nicola Valley By George Murray, Nicola. =r= The two eldest sons Samuel and John P. Moore had the* spirit of adventure and were pioneers of a sturdy and determined type. Scai-cely had they attained to manhood before the spell of the west overcame them, and they resolved to exploit the vast and little known region which lay between Ontario and the Rocky Mountains and over which the Hudson's Bay Co. held sway. It was at that time famous only as the haunts of the buffalo and an extensive fur-bearing region whose products were designed to fill the coffers of the aforesaid company. It was to their interest not to diffuse information respecting the wonderful resources and enormous possibilities of the prodigious territory from which they drew their wealth. Probably they did not realize that they held sway over one of the greatest, if not the greatest wheat producing belt on the globe, and that many millions would find happy homes, where the Indian hunter and buffalo once roamed at will. Self preservation one of the prevailing instincts of our nature- would induce the Hudson Bay Co. to maintain a discreet silence. Their success however would tempt others and bring rivals into the field. Then too the explorer yearning to glean and scatter knowledge respecting the attractions and resources of untrodden fields, could not resist the call of the west. Gradually it is learned that an inheritance of gigantic resources remains to be possessed and subdued. The two Moore brothers set out from their home in Durham intent on seeing what the Red river had to offer and with Fort Garry as their objective point. This gained they made their home their for the winter. While most favorably impressed with the agricultural possibilities of the Red river, railroad work was not even a dream at that time. To locate there, whatever the inducements, these could not compensate for the disadvantages. With the opening of spring they determined to push westward. The long, and tedious journey from Winnipeg was undertaken and successfully accomplished. When the wondei'ful Winnipeg of today was but a Hudson Bay trading post, Mr. Samuel Moore predicted a great future for the obscure village, an dexpressed-the-opi ni on-that-i t- would become a second Chicago, a forecast then extravagant, but now verified. He was enamoured of Bow River country, the splendid district now known as \"Sunny Alberta.\" But to locate East of the Rocky Mountains looked like choosing perpetual isolation. As the prospect of railway seemed a wild hope, the trend must be still Westward. Fabulus tales were told of the golden stores awaiting the search of the diligent on the banks of the Fraser and in natures vaults amid the gulches of Cariboo. Those auriferous fields with their rich rewards must be reached and exploited. Prolonged toil and earnest search failed to reveal the precious metal. If the Moore brothers did not win gold from earth's secret, chambers, they were resourceful and sought success in anothei direction. The demand for supplies in the gold-camps was such as to give remunerative employment to all who would engage ir. the transportation of goods. They ran a pack-train for a time. Tidings of rich gold deposits ir. the Peace River induced them tc woo fortune in a more Northerly clime. Another venture with its fatigue and privations was undertaken. The coveted prize eluded their quest. But the ex-. perience gained through repeated failure was fitting them for triumph in another direction. They had learned to toil and wait and endure. The quieter pursuit of hits bandy and ranching offered a surer way to a competency. A locality favorable for such and industry -was sought and found at the head of Nicola Lake where in a few years they became owners of a large extent of excellent agricultural and grazing land, and a big band of cattle.

THE GAME LAWS Prairie chickens for the first time may lawfully be shot in any part of the province during October. Quail shooting becomes permissible in Cowichan, Esqui- malt, Saanich and the island districts from Oct. 1 to Dec. 31> and duck, snipe and geese on Vancouver Island, and the Islands adjacent from Sept. 5 to Feb. 28, and on the provincial mainland from Sept. 1 to Sept. 28. The sale of these birds will only be allowed hereafter, however, during October and November, market hunting having during late years visibly reduced the flocks of these migi'atory waterfowl. Deer shooting on' Vancouver Island and the adjacent islands opens Sept. 5, continuing until Dec. 15, but no sale being allowed. Elsewhere throughout the province, excepting in the Queen Charlottes, the open season for deer is from Sept. 1 to to Dec. 15, the sale of venison on the mainland being allowed as from Sept. 1 to Nov. 15 only. Kaien Island and the game preserves of Lillooet and East Kootenay are specially and specifically exempted from the provisions of this minute of council. It has been decided to open pheasant shooting in Cowichan district, where most of the shooting is by owners' permission or invitation and subject also to certain municipal. regulations, . on October 1, the season extending to December 31. In the electoi i \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd al district of the islands, excluding North Saanich, pheasants will be legitimate spoil of the fowler during October only. No pheasant shooting is to be permitted on the mainland, in Esqui- malt or in North Saanich, as it is the intention of the government to put out during August in these sections some 1500 chicks of an imported American,,larger____and_ cross certain streets and a flat rate of taxation for twenty years, along with a grant of foreshore from Winnipeg Street to Penticton Creek. In exchange for this the Company would make Penticton a divisional point. He fully expected that he would reside in Penticton, and the head office would be there. Fifteen acres would be purchased for machine shops and roundhouses. The engineer. Mr. McCullough, submitted plans which showed the tracks of the railway, the main line would follow the lake, and come to Trout Creek, wher probably a spur would be run to the lake at that point. From there the line would begin to climb westward. The council decided to grant a flat rate of taxation of $250 per year on all the railway property of Pentiction. MERRITT'S NEW arlors stronger breed, for the improvement of the strain of the Vancouver Island birds, which latterly have showed deterioration from inbreeding. Grouse shooting is to be allowed on Vancouver Island and in the constituency of the islands from September 15 to December 31, the season thus being advanced a fortnight in order to meet the general desire for uniformity in the shooting season. The opening of the grouse season on the Island on September 15 is general, but for the fact that diminishing willow grouse may not this season be shot in Cowichan. On the lower mainland both from October 15 to December 31, while the sportsmen of Fernie and Cranbrook districts may also enjoy for the first time an open season for grouse during October only. For all the rest of the mainland the open season for grouse shooting extends from September 1 to December 31.

FOR FRUIT FARMS The announcement that the provincial government will place at least two of the experimental fruit farms in the Yale district should hold much significance for the fruit growers of Nicola valley. It is almost a foregone conclusion that one of these farms will be located along the mainline possibly at Pennys and it naturally follows that the other should come to Nicola valley, the other great wing of the riding of West Yale. The fruit industry in Nicola valley is but in its incipient stages. There is much to be done in development and experimental work and the presence of an experimental station would have a wonderful influence for good. The possibilities are here and they should be realized. The soil is well adapted to fruit growing and climate conditions are almost perfect. Many farmers would undertake fruit growing if they but better understood some of the primary features of the work. The government would confer a benefit not alone on the fruit growers of the district but on the promoters of the industry throughout the province by locating one of its experimental stations in the Nicola valley. behalf of. the people of British Columbia. The capital will. be thrown wide open on the occasion of the federal leader's visit and the reception promises to eclipse anything of the kind ever attempted in the province. The leaders of the Liberal host will be invited to take the seats of honor at the banquet board and not effort is being spared to pi-o- vide for the best of mutual good will. It will be purely non-political and furnishes a pleasing spectacle of a Conservative premier entertaining a Liberal mier admidst conditions smack of l'eal freedom and lowship. pre- that Public spiritedness in the fullest and deepest sense is represented in the project to build sidewalks in Merritt. The provincial government has generously donated a sum equivalent to the amount raised by local public subscription and in that way half of the cost is defrayed. Every citizen of Merritt should aid in the movement to secure sidewalks. Some have refused to sign the lists but their reason cannot be a sound one. Everyone will share the same advantages and should share proportionally the financial burden involved in securing these walks. Merritt is attracting wide atten- tention these days and the character of a people is largely reflected in the appearance of the _town\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdWith: sidewalks and other Incorporation should be the question of supreme importance to the good people of Merritt at this moment. We have reached a stage in our progress that it is almost imperative that we should become an organized municipality. Now that the government has pledged itself to undertake half of the financial responsibility involved in the construction of sidewalks we have received a splendid impetus. But other problems are arising that the people must solve and the only solution can come through incorporation. We want water and light, we need sewerage, we need fire protection and many other things but we can only gain them through organization. spirit of progressiveness that they have exhibited in their effort to secure a post- office building as well as an armoury for; the town. Their hands should be strengthened in every way and every assistance given them so as to secure these two necessary institutions. It will be almost one year before definite action could be taken towards construction of buildings and if the present movement is sustained Merritt will then have a population of upwards of 3000. One of the best advertisements any town can have is a good fel- healthy looking government institution and no effort should be spared to secure one or more of them for Merritt. public conveniences no man could doubt the enterprise or zeal of the local public and while the town is not incorporated there is no reason why the citizens should not unite in meeting some of the common obligations that devolve upon them. The retirement of Hon. Carter Cotton from the editorial chair of the ^Vancouver News Advertiser marks the removal from active journalism of one of the brightest writers in the province. For years Mr. Cotton has presided over the destinies of the News Advertiser and as an editorial writer has won widespread respect and appreciation. He was not a man of superfluous verbiage but the wealth of his writings lay in the fact and reason that he always.nurtured. Ever convincing in his arguments it was that simple, terse style of his that earned for him the position he held so long. If a provincial press association is to be organized it is mature time that some preliminary organization steps were taken. The good that will follow the birth on institution of this character cannot be denied but it requires a leader and the sooner something definite is accomplished the sooner will the new organization be assured. The result of the general elections throughput Manitoba was not unexpected. The Roblin administration has given splendid satisfaction in every department and though the fight waged by the opposition party was a bitter one still was it evident that the government had the confidence of the people and that the electors were not content to drop the substance for the shadow. Mr. Roblin is one of the great men of the west and the service he is In spite of the fact that the present administration at Victoria has granted greater concessions to the temperance people than they have ever enjoyed in this province under any previous government, Rev. Dr. Spencer, leader of the local option movement, sees fit to shower abuse on the head of Premier McBride and his government in all their works. It only go.es to show that there are some people who could never be satisfied and it matters not how generously you deal with them they are still discontented. The best course to pursue with this class is to treat them with silent contempt. The leaders of the local option movement should be more reasonable in their attitude. rendering to his chosen province is one that reverts to the good of the entire west. Prize fighting has seen its last if present indications can be accepted as a criterion. Everywhere is there the same popular feeling of animosity towards the game and in most of the states of the union a ban has been placed on the fight pictures. The Kettle Valley Railway Continued from page one. to the coast seems to find general favor with the press of the province. The News has always supported this theory and now the New Westminster Columbian lends additional color in the following statement: Jim Hill, Great Northern Railway builder, must look to his laurels. The application of the Kettle Valley Railway Company for approval of the plans of a proposed route from the Cold- water river in the Similkameen, at a point where the Midway- Penticton-Merritt section turns north to follow, the Coldwater river to the Nicola valley, connection being made at Merritt with the Nicola branch of the C. P. R. from Spence's Bridge, is a pretty plain indication that the new sorthern interior railroad proposes tocross the Hope Mountains, run down the Co- quahalla to the Fraser river and join the mainline of the C. P. R. at Hope, or as the route map shows, Ruby Creek. This proposed location of a route revives the hope that the Kettle River Valley Railway will include in its plans a direct connection from the interior Boundary country to the coast, the necessary link in a second transcontinental by way of the Crow's Nest Pass line to The Liberals of Merritt are to be commended on the splendid the Pacific- tidewater. What gives a color of possibility to the project is the increased traffic on the Canadian Pacific Railway's mountain section. The Crow's Nest section, giving connection with the coast by the Kettle River Valley line and especially by the proposed route over the Hope Mountain pass would relieve traffic on the more northerly line and bring the wheat of the Prairies and Southern Alberta to the Pacific seaports over easier gradients.\" the house fly State Board o is a public duty. c Health is carrying Hon.

Hesitating uo longer, Jefferson tore open the envelope and read: My Dearest Wife That Is to Be\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdI have arranged everything. Next Wednesday- just a week from today\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwe will go to the house of a discreet friend of mine where a minister will marry us. Then we will go to city hall and get through the legal part of it. Afterward we can catch the 1 o'clock train for Buffalo.

A close \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdshave this for Senator Roberts, he thought. His first impulse was to go upstairs again to. his mother and put the matter iu her hands. She would immediately inform his father, who would .\"make short work of Mr. Bagley. Hut, thought Jefferson, why should he spoil:a'good tiling? He could afford to wait a day or two. There was no hurry.'.He. could allow Bagley to think all was going swimmingly and then uncover the plot at the eleventh hour, lie would eveu lot this letter go to Kate. There was uo difficulty in procuring another envelope and imitating the handwriting, and when Bagley \"Suy, __.<- pressed emotion lie said hoarsely: \"You're a hard, pitiless man, John Ryder! So be it\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdlive millions. I don't know what they'll say.

Good day.\" Mr. Bagley entered. .iJyder bowed tot Herts, who slowly retired. When thai door had closed on him, Ryder went; back to his' desk, a smile of triumpli on his face. Then he turned to hiia. secretary. . \"Let Sergeant Ellison come up,\" he said. A moment later the door opened, and Sergeant Ellison entered, followed by th? secretary, who almost Immediately withdrew. \"Well, sergeant,\" said Mr. Ryder cordially, \"what have you to tell me? I Can give you only a few minutes.
