Buckingham moved swiftly aside, away to his left; it was almost & leap; and as he moved he lunged in the new line he now confronted, a lunge calculated to take Holles in the flank. But Hollea shifted his feet with ‘the speed of a dancer, and veered to face his opponent in this new line, ready to meet the hard- driven point when it was delivered. Meanwhile, the sounds of combat in that locked room—the stamp of shifting feet and the rin, of blades: —had drawfi the attention of the men in the hall outside. There came a vigorous knocking on the door ac- companied by voices, The sound was an enheartening relief to Bucking. ham, who was finding his opponent much more difficult to dispatch than he had expected.

PROPOSE SLASH IN LICENSES Auto Men Would Increase Limits on Speeding Reduction of motor vehicle licenss fees to a nominal sum and the rais- ing of state speed limits were the outstanding proposals put forward at & session of automotive industry groups with state highway officials Friday afternoon at the downstairs restaurant of the L.

The called to hear propositions for legislative programa for the next session of the logislat- ure, heard recommendations for the slash in state license fees and the raising of road funds thru a gasoline tax. L. D. McArdle, director of the state department of efficiency; Dr. H.

The Washington Automotive Trades association recommended the romoval of the state speed limits and sonference, «| the holding of drivers responsible for accidents. The Automobile Club of Washington proposed that the limit be increased to 35 miles per hour, Qualification investigation of dri- vers, more stringent headlight regy- Jations, and the proposition that per- zonal property taxes be collected at the time of paying for the licensey were also submitted. It win also recommended that the auto licenses remain with the car instead of the driver. But for that wound there might wf Well have been an end of Holles.

But) the duke maintained {t with the ten-| acity born of the sexperate knowledge | that his life depended on it, that if} he loosed his hold there would be an instant end of him. Thus now in this fierce corps-a- corps they writhed and swayed hither | and thither, snarling and panting and | tugging, whilst the sound of the! blows upon the door announced the splintering of a panel, and Nancy, half-swooning in her chair, followed the nightmare struggles of the two men in wide-eyed but only half-seeing terror. And then under a final blow the door all splintered abdut, the lock flew open and the grooma flawed into the room to thelr master’s rescue. Holles tore his wrist free at the same moment by a last wrench. But it was too late. Casting the duke's sword hand from him ,he sprang away and round with a tearing sob to face the lackeys. For a second his glittering point held them at bay. Then the blow of a club shivered the blade, and they rushed in upon him, He felled ono of them with a blow of the hilt which he still retained, be- fore a club took him across the skull. Under that blow he reeled back against the table, big limbs sagged, and he sank down Ina heap uncon. scious, ‘As he lay there one of the grooms, standing over him, swung hig club again with the clear intention of beat- ing out his brains, But the duke ar. rested the descending blow, “It is not necessary,” he said. He was white and breathing hard from his exertions and there wasa fevered glitter in his eyes, But these signs apart he was master of himself. “Your arm, monseigneut erled Francois, pointing to the blood that filled his sleeve. “Bah! A scratch! Presently.” ‘Then he pointed to the prone, limp figure of Holles, from whose head the blood wag slowly trickling. “Get a rope, Francois, and truss him up.” Francois departed on his errand. “You others, carry Antoine out. Then return for’ Bobadil. I may have a use for bim yet.’ They trooped out obediently, and Buckingham, still very pale, but breathing now more composedly, turned to Nancy with a queer little smile on lps that looked less red than usual.

BUS STARTS RUN Ceremony Marks Opening of New: Service BY MELVIN B. VOORHIES ITH a shining, nickel-plated smilo spread all over its big radiator and blushing a beautiful yellow, a brand new municipal rail- way motor bus was presented by Superintendent D. W, Henderson, of the street railways, to the people of South Alki Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Members of the city council attended the presentation. Henceforth the bus is to run from the end of the Alki street car line south along the shore of the Hound to the end of the pavement. People of the north end of the district recelved the bus at tho end of the carline and a little later turned it over to their neighbors of South Alki. The big public service vehicle was formally christened by Mrs. Cyrus A. Briggs, 6202 Beach Drive, in tho presence of several hundred citizens of the district. Little Misses Ida Dorothy Paget, 5063 Beach Drive, and June Anderson, 6080 Beach Drive, were flower girls. June was chosen as flower girl be- cause sho was born and has lived all her life in Alki. Following the ceremany, which was arranged by the Parent-Teach- ers’ association and the Alki Wom- en's club, C. R. Jackson, ‘superin- tendent of public utilities; R. EB, Furse, assistant to the railway su- perintendent, and as many citizens of Alki as could be packed into the bus, rode in it on its “maiden voy- age” from the end of the pavement to the carline, Daddy Draper and his orphan's band furnished the music for the occasion, and the boy scouts were on hand to take part in the “deings.” The day marked the initiation of tho first regular service over the mile and a half stretch of pavement south of the south end of the Alki car line, PARIS, March 15.—-Archbishops Hayes of New York and Meundiein of Chicago arrived here today and called on Mgr.

PASS NOT YET UNCOVERED — Rumors of Early Opening at Snoqualmie False BY JIM MARSHALL NOQUALMIE PASS will not be} open for two woeks, regardless of predictions in other newspapers, ft wan established Friday, by a scout car sent by The Star up the pass road. The car, a Buick, piloted by | Jim Fenton, of the Eldridge-Buick | jcompany, made a “farthest north” |record for so early a date tn the year. It got to within a mile of {the summit on the western slope. At this point a caterpillar is bucking three or four feet of frozen snow. Friday !t made 150 feet in two hours in the drifts, Superin. tendent E. B. Harvey, of the state highway department, then an- nounced that the bucking of the ma- [chine was tearing up the road x0 badly that he would stop trying to open the highway until the snow softened. Ho gave no hope that cars would be ablo to get thru un- til the end of the month, On the east slope there are two miles of snow to be bucked to the summit, and conditions are about the same as on the west side, The road up the mountain on the west side is in excellent condition after the win- ter, but is barred to travel several miles from the top. Even with an April 1st opening, the road will be passable earlier this year than ever before, Tt has been opened as late as July 4, .

No pup chasing his own tall can become more involved with his subject than the political lawyer who winds up his wrist to become the author of a bill. “I often think I should like to live long enough to see some simple, sane, non-legal man dominate the congress long enough to enact a law forbidding lawyers to hold office and outlawing the official use of adjec- tives, phrases and clauses; in a word ‘business before oratory.

His name was Hank Beebe and the only law he knew was to be found in the Ten Commandments, He didn't know the difference between the Declaration of Independence and the Emancipation Proclamation, but he was eternally on the square, the proprietor of a world of horse sense, and what he lacked in law, he made up in a nat. ural sense of equity.
