The news announced exclusively in the Daily News that the Provincial Government intends to open offices at Charlotte City for the transaction of business relating to the Queen Charlotte Islands, will be welcome news to the residents of the Islands. The developments of the Islands has been too long delayed by mediaeval office systems already. It has been monstrous that intending settlers should have been subjected to a battle- dore and shuttle cock treatment, driven hither and thither between the Government offices at Prince Rupert and the lands upon Graham Island upon which they desired to settle. Again and again settlers have been instructed to go over to the Islands to find out facts unobtainable at the Prince Rupert office, only to find that the farther away they went the less hope was there of getting satisfaction. Being invariably poor men seeking a home, they were driven away from the district by the diffi- culties thus imposed. An office at a central point on the Queen Charlottes, with a resident agent, will go a great deal to abolish this unsatisfactory state of affairs, even though it means the cutting off of one of the sources of revenue for Prince Rupert lawyers. Now that the Government has shown signs of awakening, perhaps it will go further. Perhaps it will vote appropriations for the gevelop- ment of the Islands commensurate, at least, with the revenues it is reaping therefrom. That would be sound economy, as well as common justice. An inquiry into the conditions under which the coal, timber and land staking companies—particularly aliens—are holding the lands from cultivation should be instituted. The Queen Charlotte Islands under sympathetic development have it in them to become sources of great wealth. Prince Rupert is deeply interested in their development, for, in a double sense, the Islands are destined to become “feeders’’ for Prince Rupert. ROGUES AND HEROES. The slight push of Fate that stamps one man a rogue and mckes of another the hero of a Sunday Schoo! story, is shown in the brief announce- ment in a Toronto paper that “Joe Phillips’ dream has come true. There are now 11,056 people living in the York Loan District.” Joe Phillips, five years ago, was president of the York Loan Co. He took the company’s funds and bought a huge tract of land on the west borders of Toronto. He had visions of seeing it become a fashionable residential district, and of reaping millions for himself. But the property was slow in rising. Before he could realize enough to repay the company the police nabbed him» Today Joe Phillips is in Kingston Penitentiary, serving the fifth of his seven year term. And today there are 11,056 living on the York Loan property, which has since become the fashionab] residential district of Toronto. What a narrow escape Joe Phillips has had of becoming a hero of a Sunday School prize book instead of a convict.

It is very strange.” Pyne was not wholly prepared for this mine being sprung on him, So he essayed to gain time. “It doesn't appeal to me in that light. There was a miscalculation about the water. Why not about the focd?” “Because my father went through all the stores personally and portion ed them out. Some flour and tinned meat have gone; I am quite sure of it. The question is—who can have taken them. The flour, at least, must have attracted attention if anybody tried to eat it.” “Did you say all that to the purser?’ he asked, suspending his labors and looking at her steadily. “No. We could not remember ex- actly what proportion of the various articles there ought to be left.” “Then, take my advice, Miss Con- stance, and keep on forgetting,” he said. A quick flush came into her palo cheeks. “You are not saying that without good cause?” she murmured. “I have the best of reasons. If the least hint of such a thing goes round among the men there will be ruc tions.” Constance went to the door closed it. “Enid,” she said, “I believe father and Mr. Pyne have got some dreadful plan in their minds which they dare not tell us about.” But the American was not to be cornered in such fashion. the door again and went out, pausing on the threshold to say: “I wouldn't venture to guess what might be troubling Mr. Brand, but you can take it from me that what he says, goes. Talk about grasping a nettle firmly, I believe your father would grab a scorpion by the tail if he felt that way.” And with this cryptic utterance hé quitted them, intending to warn Brand at’ the first opportunity that the time was at hand when he musf harden his heart and take the decisive step of cutting off communication be- tween the service-room.and the re- mainder of the building. This could be done easily. flanges of the uppermost iron case were screwed to the floor and below. A few minu‘es’ labor would remove the screws; the steps could be lifted bodily into the service- room and there utilized to seal the well. “What a howling menagerie will and The stair- above | | break loose here when they find out,” thought Pyne. “It’s a hard thing to say, but we ought to have the door open. Quite a stack of folks will need to be pitched outside.” A comfu-ting reflection truly, yet his face bore no token thereof as he joined the lfighthouse-keeper and sev- eral of the Ch'nvok’s officers and men on the gallery. The wind had shifted another cou- ple of points to the north, and the sea, apart from the reef, was running in a heavy unbroken swell. That was the tantalizing part of it. Any ordi- nary ship's boat, properly managed, could live in perfect safety in the open, But the iron-toothed reef, with its totuous channels and battling cur- rents changing with every stage of | the tide, surrounded the pillar with an/ impassable barrier, whilst | apparently the lighthouse itself offered as frown- ing a front as any of the black rocks which reared their weed-covered crests at low water. Signals were being exchanged be tween the gallery and the Trinity ten- der. Brand seemed to be very em- phatic in his answers to the communt- cations made to him by Stanhope. “No, no,” he muttered aloud, whilst the anxious man near him wondered why he was so impatient. “It is utterly impossible!” he said again. “No boat can do it—some one should stop him. It means certain loss of life!” At last, becoming aware that his companions could not understand what was going on, he turned to them with the passionate explanation, “That brave fellow Stanhope says that, with two others at the oars, he intends to row near-enough to the rock at half flood to endeavor to spring onto the ladder. I cannot per- suade him that no man has ever yet succeeded in such a mad project. Look below, and see how each wave climbs around eighteen or twenty feet of the base. The thing is wildly im- practicable. He will be swept off and smashed to pieces before our eyes, even if the boat escapes.” “If the boat can come near enough for that purpose, couldn’t we heave a line aboard her?” asked one of the ship's officers. s “We can try. I shall signal them to that effect. Anything is better than to sanction an attempt which is fore- doomed to failure, and must result in the death of the man who tries it.” Thereupon more energetic flag- waving took place. Finally Brand de- sisted in sheer exasperation. “I cannot convince him,” he cried. “He has made up his mind. May the Lord preserve him from a peril which I consider to be a mortal one.” “Has he put forward any theory?” asked Pyne. “He was doing a lot of talking.” “Yes,” explained Brand. “He be- Heves that a strong boat, rowed to the verge of the broken water, might watch her opportunity and dart in close to the ladder on the backwash of a big wave, allowing its successor to lift her high enough for an active man to jump onto the rungs. The rowers must pull for their lives the instant the wave breaks and leave him clinj@g to the ladder as best he can, There is more chance of success in that way, he thinks, than in trying Subscribe For The Daily News isis!

So, when the Falcon, the tender, and a strong tug hired by Mr. Traill, rounded the dis- tant Carn du headiand at eleven o'clock, the lighthouse-keeper felt that further protest was unavailing. about to dare so much to help him. In the first place, he caused a rope to be swung from the gallery to the doorway. If any doubt were enter- met with in accomplishing this com- paratively simple task.

And then a | wild thought brought her heart to her | mouth. | “Oh, Connie!” she cried in a sudden access of terror, “I feel sure that Jack is doing something desperate to save us. Dad knows. They all know, but they would not tell us. That is why Mr. Pyne has not been near us for hours.” “It cannot be. No one would permit it. Father would never give his sanc- tion. Enid, my dear one, why do you Bay such things? You frighten me!” | But Constauce’s lips were bloodless, and her eyes dilated with the fear which she, too, would fain deny. | They were perched so high above j}the sea that the dancing hillocks of | green water could not wholly obscure |the stoutly built craft which bobbed |{nto startling prominence round the | Stern of the tender. “It is, it is!" shrieked Enid. |Connie!

Fascin- Bted, speechless, clinging to each other like panic-stricken children, they followed the leaping boat with bpen-eyed, at remorseless death, They scarce understoud what toward. As the boat, a strong craft, yet such @ mere speck of stanch life in the tumbling seas, was steadily impelled hearer, they saw the tug lurch ahead of the other vessels until a line was thrown and caught by Stanhope, who instantly fastened it round his waist, The rowers wore cork jackets, but he Was quite unprotected.

They paid heed to naught pave the advancing boat, now deep in the trough of a wave, now perched ever the rowers were, they trusted wholly to the instructions given by the gallant youth who peered so boldly Into the wilderness ahead. ‘The flying foam and high-tossed spray gave to the lighthouse the semblance of alter- nately lifting and lowering its huge frame amidst the furious torrents that encircled it. Nerves of steel, strong hearts and true, were needed by those who would voluntarily enter that watery inferno. Yet the men at the oars did not falter nor turn their heads, They pulléd evenly and well, with the short, deep-sunken stroke of the fisherman, and Stanhope, now that they were al- most in the vortex where the waves jost their regularity, produced a pad- dle wherewith to twist the boat's head to meet each turn and swir'’ the | Stanhope’s | tre of the to e@n- | to Brand's sor | prevent others from seeing that some | agreed to help Stanhope’s hazardous | it behooved him to take all possible | measures to help the men who were) tained as to the grave risk attending | BStanhope’s enterprise it was promptly | did not prevent the wind from lash- | The man would have been | had | her sister’s attention to) tender, lay broadside on / At the) “Look, | the glassy stare of those who gaze, | The girls even in their dumb agony, | precariously on a lofty crest.

Big empty tins stood there, awaiting | the next visit of the tender, and | Brand wrenched the cover off the | nearest cistern.

He found the other man flinging handfuls of the oil as far to windward as the thick fluid would travel. “Quick!” gasped Brand. “Don't | pour it out!

Full twenty feet of the granite lay: jjers were thus submerged and ex. yposed whenever a big comber traveled ‘sheer over the reef. |; But these straight-forward attacks were spasmodic. Often the eddies |icreated by the rocks came tumbling pelimell from the north. Sometimes | [they would combine with the incoming tide, and then the water seemed to cling tenaciously to the side of the lighthouse until it rose to a great height, swamping the entrance, and dropping back with a tremendous crash. There were times when the northerly ally disdained to merge with its rival. Then it leaped into the hol low created by the receding wave, and all about the lighthouse warred a level | whirlpool. Stanhope’s plan was to rush the boat in when one of these compara tively lese dangerous opportunities offered. He wouid spring for the lad der, run up if possible, but, if caught by a vaulting breaker, lock himself with hands and feet on the fron rungs and endeavor to withstand the stifling embrace of the oncoming sea, He was an expert swimmer and diver, and he believed that by clinging limpet-like to the face of the rock, he had the requisite strength of lungs and sinews to resist one if not more of these watery avalanches, The rope around his waist was held from the tug. The instant he made his leap, the men with him were to | back water, the crew at the drag to | haul for all they were worth, and colsequentiy pull the boat clear of the next wave ‘ere it broke. That is why he selected a handy craft in place of the life-boat offered to him as soon as his resolve was whispered ashore, It was on rapidity, quick judgment, the utilization of seconds, that he de pended. The unwieldy bulk of the Jife-boat not only detracted from these all-important considerations, but made it more than probable that she would be capsized or touch the reef. For the same reason he timed his approach on the rising tide. He could venture nearer to the lighthouse it- self, and the boat could be rowed and dragged more speedily into safety, With him, too, were men who knew every inch of the Guif Rock. He knew he could trust them to the end, Although he had mapped out hia programme to the last detail, Brand's inspiration in using the oil created a fresh and utterly unforeseen set of conditions, Mountainous ridges still danced fan tastically up and down the smooth granite slopes, but they no longer broke, and it is broken water, not tu multuously heaving seas, that an open boat must fear. With the intuition of a born sailor, ready to seize any advantage given by human enemy or angry ocean, Stan hope decided, in the very jaws of op portunity, to abandon his original de sign totally, and shout to the men he saw standing in the entrance to heave to him a rope. He would have pre ferred the danger of the jump. He almost longed to endure the fierce struggle which must ensue before he reached those waiting hands. He thought he would have his reward in the tense joy of the fight, in bringing salvation to Enid and those with her, in seeing her sweet face again after these days and nights of vigil, (to BE CONTINUED) Adverthe in The Daily News Skeena Land Distriet— District of Queen Charlotte lan Take notice that Austin M.
