RAPTURE BEYOND by KATHARINE NEWLIN BURT Final Installment "But you?" "They thought that we had quarreled over the swag. Lord, how they tore my house to pieces looking for them. It's a wonder you weren't flayed in the search. Lord knows where 'Cella kept them. But the police couldn't pin anything on me. For lack of evidence I wasn't tried for theft as well as for murder." "And she didn't tell? I mean at the trial she didn't try to help you by telling the truth?" "She didn't speak at the trial or afterward," he said. "But you must remember that I had killed her lover." "Since I met you again, I hated her afresh. And so, because I thought that it would tear away her mask and expose the background of her plenty, I stole her jewels. I wanted you, Lynda, to see her in her true colors so that she'd not be able to influence you against me in the end." "Oh, Nick, Nick, Nick!" "Do you blame me so much?" "I don't blame... only, why couldn't you have trusted me?" "The house of cards has fallen, Nick, and in my silly clothes I have come back to you. Whom else have I now in the world to love and to trust?" They looked at each other then with their wasted and faintly similar faces and their wet strained eyes and contrived for each other's sake a sort of shaken laughter. "I am not going to marry Kent. I won't ever see him again," she told him. She hurried to her own room, shut out the haunting faces and lay on her mount and to ride. But away from her? She saw, turning, stiff and with weariness, that vestibule. He came toward her,左 grave and white. The sky made him visible to eyes she must have been line, silent and inexact could not speak. "Have you read the pa Her 'no' was inaudil tried to read them. The made her feel faint. She able to go on." "I've got my verdict. Don't try to speak, Lynda stay. I know what your ward me. I've spoiled you or you think so. And I come here to thank you the power to do it. Sin you you've been hurt how went away and left you with it alone. It's beastly ed.

For an instant Nick's ed in Lynda's face, a tion. "It's too bad we're not Jock. I haven't any man and very little patience at our talent will be wasted. It was never Jocelyn Hart loved.

Whom else have I now in the world to love and to trust?" They looked at each other then with their wasted and faintly similar faces and their wet strained eyes and contrived for each other's sake a sort of shaken laughter. "I am not going to marry Kent. I won't ever see him again," she told him. She hurried to her own room, shut out the haunting faces and lay on her bed, tearless, until sleep came. A wedding must be canceled, all its gifts returned, its guests dismissed. Cousin Sara Mullet, arrived from New Jersey, was invaluable for these unpleasant urgent matters. Marcella, holding in her lap a leather box filled with glittering five-and-ten-cent store jewels, had been taken away, smiling and pleased, to Steever's sanitarium. "Look a-here, girlie, I'm on to Nick and you. You got the lady's sparklers and you're going to beat it to foreign parts. A neat job too." "Where is he?" Lynda whispered. "Not far away. I found he didn't have the stuff so I got Fuji to call you. Don't yell. I got him in a closet outside there. It's not even locked but he's tied up. Just hand me over the sparklers. I'll cut off and you can find Nick in half a second. If you make a row I'll put a hole in your pretty carcass and take the stuff. It's in your bag there?" She shook her head. He took the case from her, opened it and quietly pocketed the gems. Then he began to back toward the door. As he stepped from the door, Lynda's courage flared up. She darted after him so unexpectedly, so closely at his heels that she was through the door before he could lock it. As he fled down the stairs she drew in her breath He came toward her, looking tall and grave and white. It was not until several days thereafter that the papers began to blazon the story of a certain Felx Kent — his wealth, his possible crime, his treachery. The law court in Chicago was set for a scandalous trial not the re-opening of an ancient indictment of one misfortunate engineer but a new trial to prove Kent's embezzlement of his fellow citizens' funds. Kent was very expensively and very ably represented. Jock's story in one form or another ran to columns. Lynda meanwhile in her own fashion prowled the room. It was ten o'clock of a gay spring morning, Jocelyn was dressed again in her own ordinary clothes and wore her hair smooth about her face. But the face was Lynda's. And it had noticeably thinned. She turned passionately upon Nick's silence as though it had been speech. "I won't talk about Kent's—about to shout but Quayle stopped below her and with a hideous white grin leveled his gun. Before her voice had left her lips he fired. There was, with her shortened walling cry, a shock of sound. Quayle scuttled down and out past Fuji who had the front door open. Lynda lay crumpled near the banister over which she had leaned for her intended outcry. Below her on the stairs, on the very step where Quayle had paused to shoot, was the body of a man. She nardly knew when she first moved, that she was living, or what had saved her life. Helping herself up by the railing and moving shakily down she found Nick Sandal, his hands still tied behind his back. His mouth was gagged. With some contortion, some hideous effort, he had burst free from his temporary prison, had Lynda, knocking her over." Lynda meanwhile in her own fashion prowled the room. It was ten o'clock of a gay spring morning. Jocelyn was dressed again in her own ordinary clothes and wore her hair smooth about her face. But the face was Lynda's. And it had noticeably thinned. She turned passionately upon Nick's silence as though it had been speech. "I won't talk about Kent's—about Kent's trial, Nick. I don't want to see the papers. I want to go away until it's over, please. "Well, I was about to suggest an adventure. Will you come with me to France?" "What is—your intention, Nick?" "To return to the Marquise de Montree her Jewels." "That's what I meant to do, some day." Josiah's lawyer at Jocelyn's request took charge of her affairs. Of his own accord he furnished Marcella's daughter with ample funds. She would be the heiress of Josiah's fortune; no reason for her to suffer diminished luxury or pleasure now because of the unexpected tragedy of Marcella's mental breakdown. In secret, the two conspirators made their preparations and set their date. Nick got the pass ports, bought the tickets. Lynda, all dressed for travel and holding in her hand a leather case which contained her toilet articles, her money an dthe Jewels, sat down beside her window to wait for Nick. He had been living in his old rooms and was to come for her at eight-thirty. Startled she saw that it was already nine, that Nick was very late. She began to be alarmed. Passengers were supposed to be aboard by ten. She 'phoned the desk but was told there had been no call. She had hardly hung up the receiver when shrilly the mechanism rang. She knew Fujifl's queer little voice: "This Miss Har-lo?" "Yes." "Please. Lady come see Mis-tair Sandal. He say, Velly sud-den sick. No can come. No can go to 'phone. Please, lady come his room now." mount and to ride. But why must it be away from her? She saw, turning, stiff with trouble and with weariness, that he was in the vestibule. He came toward her, looking tall and grave and white. The saffron evening sky made him visible to her, but in his eyes she must have been a dark outline, silent and inexpressive. She could not speak. "Have you read the papers, Lynda?" Her "no" was inaudible. She had tried to read them. The names had made her feel faint. She had not been able to go on. "I've got my verdict. I'm cleared. Don't try to speak, Lynda. I won't stay. I know what you must feel toward me. I've spoiled your life... or you think so. And I've dared to come here to thank you for giving me the power to do it. Since I last saw you you've been hurt horribly. And I went away and left you to go through with it alone. It's beastly. I'm ashamed. But," he held out his hands, "but no one will call them a thief's fingers again. Nor my mouth a convict's mouth. And... I love you, Jocelyn Harlowe. Life is ahead of us, although there has been so much pain behind and I have a mania for hoping." For an instant Nick's irony gleamed in Lynda's face, a happy resurrection. "It's too bad we're not in sympathy. Lock. I haven't any mania for hopping and very little patience at all with pain. Our talent will be wasted. And I think it was never Jocelyn Harlowe that you loved." I am Lynda Sandal. I'm tired of unhappiness. And I've been lonely. Can't you have a mania for being hap- Plenty of Winter Sports In Summer Two localities in the national forests now have plenty of raw material for winter sports in the summer of 1932, according to reports received today by S. B. Show, regional forester for California. The high country in the Shasta national forest, which culminates in Mt. Shasta at an elevation of 14,161 feet, and the Palisade glacier country at the head of Big Pine creek in the Inyo national forest are two localities accessible to motorists. The supervisor of the Inyo forest reports that there are now drifts from 45 to 50 feet deep at Twin lakes near Mammoth with many buildings entirely buried. On the Mammoth summit above Twin lakes on the Sierra divide, the snow was too deep for measurement as the apparatus could only reach to a depth of 15 feet. Forest officers fear that buildings at Mammoth may be crushed by the weight of the snow which is reported to be packed tightly by two days of rain in February. There is a possibility, according to the rangers, that some of the trans-Sierra trails will not be free of snow this summer. California Forests Are Paying Dividends The national forests of California have returned to the state and counties a total of $4,311,456, to and including the fiscal year 1931, in lieu of taxes on government owned lands within the national forests. This represents 25 per cent of the gross revenues derived by the U.S. forest service from the sale and use of resources within the national forests. An additional $1,629,161, or ten per cent of the revenues, has been spent in cooperation with the state and counties for construction improvement of trails and secondary roads within the forests, not including cooperative assistance on forest highways which are part of the State highway system. This makes a total sum of $5,940,617 returned to California by the Forest Service. This is the largest return receiv- And... I love you, Jocelyn Harlowe. Life is ahead of us, although there has been so much pain behind and I have a mania for hoping." For an instant Nick's irony gleamed in Lynda's face, a happy resurrection. "It's too bad we're not in sympathy. Rock. I haven't any mania for hoping and very little patience at all with palm. Our talent will be wasted. And I think it was never Jocelyn Harlowe that you loved. I am Lynda Sandal. I'm tired of unhappiness. And I've been lonely. Can't you have a mania for being happily here and now?" At that they were together and out of reach of fear. The little Master, completely conquered, vanished into thin air and it seemed to Lynda that on his place was the sure promise of splendid happiness. THE END Roy E.

A man giving this name appearing in those counties paid worthless checks in return for produce. BETTER FISHING LOOMS Salt water fishermen are promised better fishing this year than in 1931, surveys which show abnormally warm water during the winter indicate. Warmer water also is predicted for spring and summer, thus bringing schools up from farther south. International Relation Meet to be Held at S. C. The 1932 biennial summer session of the Institute of International relations will be held on the campus of the University of Southern California, Dr. R. B. von KleinSmid, chancellor, announced recently. "It was previously planned, as announced at the December session of the Institute at Riverside, that the 1932 summer session would be held in the Northwest at the University of Oregon, but owing to the centering of interests this summer in Los Angeles in connection with the Olympic games and other events of foreign flavor, the University of Oregon waives its claim to the third biennial summer institute, and the executive committee has decided that it will meet at the University of Southern California," stated Dr. von KleinSmid.
