FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 1924 STOCK-MARKET ADVANCES AGAIN NEW YORK, June 27. The stock market swung into another bread upward movement today, embracing every important division of the speculative list with the exception of the rallies, before encountering much opposition. The market was active and buoyant. Substantial advances were scored in the railroad shares before the noon hour. Then the specialties, including the mercantile stocks came in for attention and finally the equipment stocks. U.S. Steel crossed par and gulf states steel made 2½ points at 71%. Bethlehem was the first to encounter heavy selling but it declined in an orderly fashion and its loss was never more than a point. With the appearance of a heavy volume of profit taking sales in the fourth hour the market first turned dull and then reactionary. The mercantile company stocks completely dominated the market in the last hour and their vigorous upward movement diverted attention from the profit taking which featured the fourth hour. Kresge department stores was by far the most prominent of this group moving forward briskly to 58% for an advance of nine points from the previous close. Woolworth at 110, moved into new high ground for the year and Stars Roebuck was active above 55. Stock sales today 977,100 shares; bonds $30,915,000. GRAIN ACTIVE. IRREGULAR CHICAGO, June 27.

BILLY WHIKER BY FRANCES TREDO MONTGOMERY The officers heard footsteps coming up the secret stairs. "I am sure that is the Lieu tenant coming back," one of them said. And it really was. The minute his form appeared on the stairs, the General asked: "Did you find any trace of him? What did you discover. "I found this small notebook, written in cipher, with a lady's picture pasted on the fly leaf. I recognized the face as that of the nurse Captain Strongheart is engaged to marry, so this must be his notebook." "I think you are correct. But where did you find the notebook'" "On the floor of an underground tunnel running from this tower to the river bank. So I judge he must have escaped that way.'' "To make sire he is not shut up anywhere in the castle, I will leave two of you officers with six soldiers to search thoroughly every nook and cranny of the castle before you leave it. Now I must go immediately, with the hope that he has really escaped and is now on the other side of the river. Adieu, and a safe return to you all." When the General reached camp he hastened to Headquarters, and when he pushed open the door of his office, who should be sitting there facing the door but Captain Strongheart, perfectly well, but pale and thin from his recent starvation diet! He had had time to reach camp and change his clothes and get something to eat before the General got there, as he had come in a straight line across fields and streams, just as Billy had done when he had delivered the note while the General was forgoing miles out of his way.
