Indianapolis.—The message of Emmett F. Branch, retiring governor, in which he pleaded for the state institutions, expressing a strong desire that the present system of control and operatica of benevolent, charitable and ‘correctional institutions be continued, was the high light of the opening session of the Seventy-fourth general assembly at the statehouse. His plea | was that politics be kept out. ‘ The assembly formally got under‘ way after the election of Representative Harry G. Leslie of Lafayette, 1 ‘speaker of the house of representa- . tives, Senator James J. Nejdl of Whit‘ing, president pro tem. of.the senate, and other assembly officers. | Addresses Joint Session. ‘ ‘The governor, reading from a 7,000word manuscript, was heard by a joint - sgession of the senate and house, sitting in the house chamber, a crowd that ‘lined the corridors, the galleries and ( ~ even overflowed on the floor. ; Geovernor Branch's message rang with a repeated caution against per- l ‘mitting peolitics, in any form or manner, to gain control of staté boards ‘and 'coniﬁlsxions. The "governor opposed specifically the ecreation of n‘ ‘central board of confrol for state in_Stitutions, _ | L l The &m'eiigr urged adoption of the county. unit act to place the schools .under the county control, placing the . motor busses and all.common carriers under the control and regulation of the public service commission and the enactment of laws which are designed to ‘strengthen and enlarge the state hoxking department. Ex v * One of the most salient parts of the governor's’ speech was- his recommendation that there be legislation that would deny the right of any publi: utility to-hold stoeck im any other public utility or the right of any corpora- | tion, if such a corporation be a utility or helding company, to hold stock in -a public utility. The governor said that all holding companies should be ~declared a wutility. Governor Branch recommended that the governor be empowered to remove from office any law-enforcing official ‘who rgses) firses to do his duty, Suggested that no increase or decrease be given 1o any state employee without the governor’s approval, recommended more state parks and more reforestation and urged ‘discretion in cutting appropriations for wards of the state. Wants Speed Limit Increase. Governor Branch advoeated increasing from 25 to 35 miles an hour the state speed limit on state highways. The governor advocated making it mandatory on courts to revoke the license of any driver of an automobile while under the influence of intoxieat- - ing liquor:; said that there should be some limitation on the width of moior i busses and said that these busses and all trucks should be required to carry rear view mirrors and stop lights. He advocated that busses and trucks be assessed for damages they do to highWays. Discussing the proposal that all drivers be required to have a license, the governor said that this would not. in his opinion, meet the situation, but that instead that after granting a license to an eperator it shall he discretionary for the first offense and mandatory for the second offense for the court to revoke the license of any operator found guilty of. exceeding the maximum speed limit on the road. Governor Branch deviated from his set address in only two instances. He spoke extemporaneously on the ques- ~ tion of the primary, recalling some * personal experiences and paying tribntes to former senators and governors from Indiana and detailing to the members of the circumstances surrounding the opening of the James Whitcomb Riley Hospital for Children.

, THE RED LINE TRAIL ‘ : ‘By CRITTENDEN MARRIOTT M l B i i L S

. CHAPTER XlV—Continued | . | Nellle looked. Beyond the door . | opening there was no standing space—only a black hole that went straight down. Beyond was the iron hull of the ship, and to_right and left the fron framework of the ribs. The door itself was cut with exquisite neatness ifn the wooden sheathing that framed lthe cabin walls. The space was not‘ more than a foot deep, and probably not more than a yard wide. Down the outer face ran a sort of iron ladder—really little more than a succession ofi narrow cleats, \ “That ladder leads down into the hold,” explained Carr. “I've got a snug little room down there, with half a dozen runways leading fore and aft and cross ship.” Carr turned. “Captain! If you'll go down first, Miss Archman can follow, and I'll come last and close the door.” : . Captain Bunker hesitated. He had been in command of ships too long to relish 'taking orders from a mere lad. ‘ Besides, he was a large man and the space looked very narrow. “What's your idea?’ he demanded doubtfully. “We can hold the cabin—" “No! We can't, captain.- They're twenty to one; and they're armed and ’ we're not. Besides, we've got to think of Miss Archman. We can't fight, hut | T think we can escape. If you'll trust m&—." “Oh, all right!” Captain Bunker gpoke sulkily, but he stepped into the chute. Nellie followed quickly. Carr came last. As he reached the bottom he clicked an electric button and a bulb flashed out, showing a room a dozen feet square, plainly one of the disused spare rooms of the ship. Nellie cried out in delight, but Bunker looked disgusted. Also he was hot and breathless and was suffering from his wounded head. *“I don't like this, Carr,” he rasped. “I don’t like it a bit. You've betrayed the trust I put in you. I never thought you'd be a stowaway. Os course, it's for the best, T suppose, but I'm disappointed all the | same. I'm disappointed.” ‘ Carr looked a little downcast. *I don’t think you will be, captain,” he protested hastily; “not when I've had time to explain everything. Just ‘now—" Nellie was listening eagerly. *“lt doesn’'t need any explanation!” she cried. “Mr. Carr did just right; 1 think it was perfectly splendid of him and the bravest thing I ever heard of. Oh! 1 don't see how he dared shut himself up down here.” Carr laughed, but he did not move from the foot of the chute. He _seemed to be listening for something. “I didn’t shut myself up altogether,” he protested. “I was in and eut all the time. For instance, left a note in Miss Bess' stateroom, telling her to warn Captain Bunker that somebody was going to try to steal his orders.” “Good Lord! Was that you? Why ' didn’t you leave it in my room?” “Because—Hark !” Carr strained his ear up the chute. “lalse alarm!” he said a moment later. “T didn’t leave it there because Price was in "and out too much, and was prying ’lnto things too closely. 1 didn’t sus- ! pect him of anything serious—l sus'pected somebody else then—but Ij knew he was prying. So I asked Miss | ‘Bess to tell you.” : | “And it was Price that got the papers, after all,” grunted Bunker. “Was it? I'm not sure. Os course I don’t know much, you know—only lwhat I could pick up by listening. But, I'm inclined to think Price told ’you the truth about himself. I got that map of his, by the way.” | “You did?” . “Sure thing. T got it and I packed it in the lunch basket he was fixing ; to send ashore with Mrs. Archman and | !her party. I guess they've found It ' all right by now. But we're wasting | time. Lister, ~aptain. You know the !ship! The passage outside the door !yonder“—Cnrr pointed—*leads to the | forward cargo port. Miss Archman's | boat is probably still lying close along- | side. When our absence is discov|Pred and the alarm is given everyibody is sure to rush to the ecabin. iWhen they're all there we've got to { run forward and drop into the boat | and pull I'ke thunder. See? Hark!" | Once more Carr listened. | Then he turned and nodded. *“Just | a moment,” he cautioned and ran up ! the ladder. | At the top he stopped and peered | through the peephole. | Price stood in the middle of the cabin, revolver in hand, looking dazedly from the empty chairs and the loosened ropes to the wvacant room. Every instant he changed position, as some creak of the ship’'s structure seemed to threaten a creeping attack. Furtively he moistened his lips. But he gave no alarm. : Carr, watching, guessed that he feared to confess to his fellows that his prisoners had spirited themselves away. If the mutineers learned that Captain Bunker and Miss Archman had vanished out of a locked ecabin | they might set It down to ‘“‘ghosts”: ' they might suspect their leader of treachery. In either case his authority would suffer—and he himself might suffer, too. It would be better simply to lock the cabin up and say nothing except, perhaps, to a chosen few: and to search the ship quietly. Carr, i W atching, read his thoughts like a book and felt his heart sink. It sank | still lower as he saw Price sidle toward the door. If he gave no alarm, the men would not rush aft, and the | fugitives’ chance of escape would be | gone. 5 Siowly Price retreated toward the loor. in another moment he would he gons Carr writhed in impotence. ‘lue was unarmed, and Price Leld a

cocked revolver in his hand. While \he hesitated the man backed through {tho door and shut it behind him. | Then Carr saw his chance—a des- | perate one, but still a chance, better | than waiting to be hunted down like f:n rat in the hold. Before the door had fairly closed he sprang out of his { hiding place and ran toward it. As {he passed the table he ecaught the l('lnth over it and jerked it and all upon it to the floor. The tin basin '('l:mgod as it struck. Before the echoes died away Carr was at the doorway, |lwhind the leaf, waiting, | None too soon. As he faced round, [ back to the wall, Price burst in. re- | volver raised. Beyonc the edge of the | swinging door he rushed, and, as he | did so, Carr flung himself upon him, ggruspin;.: his wrist with a grip that | twisted the pistol from his hand. | The pistol exploded as it fell. The { bullet went harmlessly, but the dam]ﬂ.ﬂ? was done. The alarm was given. INu time for Lalf measures now. With {all his strength Carr tripped the ex}stewnrd and drove his head against :th(’ flhor. | The crack rang through the room land Carr felt the man’s muscles re!lnx and grow flaceid in his grip. He ‘Sprﬂng to his feet and jumped across the room, snatching up the pistol as he went. Into the slit he scrambled and drew the panel shut, bearing behind -him, in the wardroom, the rush | of scurrying feet as it closed. ‘ He did not delay to watch the scene. l He heard the uproar as the men Lurst in, and that was enough. He had no { time to lose. It was now or never. Scarcely touching the narrow cleats he shot downward to the storeroom, “Quick !” he ordered. “Foliow me!™ | The glow of an electric torch clove | the gloom and showed him beside the door.

Follow me."! | Through the pitchy darkness he dragged the girl on. Behind followed Captain Bunker. | Overhead, as the three ran forward, | they heard the stamping of racing feet | and guessed that their plan was suci(*(wding well. Abruptly Carr stopped. Overhead showed tha glimmer of stars, hrilliuntl against a background of velvety blackness, “Stairs! Careful,” he mut-' tered, and took a step upward, dmw-‘ ing Nellie after him. Quickly but cautionsly the thrvel mounted to the deck. The moon was | shining just above the top oi the | mountain. By Its light he saw Yh:lt{ | the deck was deserted—not a man | was visible. But from aft rose an up- | Irnm‘ that was music In the ears of the | fugitives. t An oblong of glimmering m-e-mi | showed where the cargo port cut the | black bulwarks, and to this the three ilmrrimt Yrom it the lowered gz:mf.:-l | way ran down to the lapping water. | Carr - rang to It and stood aside. | “Quick, Nellie,” he commanded, nnd‘ | the girl ran lightly down. “Now, captain,” and Bunker followed more p(m-; | derously. | | Carr turned for a last look along :rhv deck. Just in time, for with a yell | a man precipitated himself out of nowhere and hurled himself forward. Carr dropped ; then, as the man, unable | to stop, hurtled over him, he caught | the fellow’s legs and added his own ;‘strvngth to the Impetus. g Not waiting to look, for the crash | of the man’s head against the bulwarks ihml told him all he needed to know, | Carr leaped down the gangway, just as | a vell from aft told that the mutineers éhz{d seen and guessed. Into the boat | he leaped, driving it from the side by | the impact of his landing. Then he { dropped on the vacant thwart behind ;l‘:«[xtniz; Bunker and snatched up the ;:Mh' oars. “Pull, captain! Pull!” he irrim}, in uncontreollable excitement. | Simultaneously the sharp crack of a ! riffe sounded and a bullet whistled overhead, 1 CHAPTER XV An Unexpected Challenge L The shadow of the mountain reached , | nearly to the El Rio, and once away from the side the boat swiftly passed . | the line of the shadow and meltedinto | the night. Nellie sat at the stern with the tiller ropes clutched in her soft . | palms. From the deck of the El Rio

came the roar of tumult. Men shouted and swore and pistols and rifles crackled. The balls whistled perilously close to the fugitives. A new sound arose and Bunker swore aloud. “They're getting the boats out,” he gritted. “We've got to hurry. Do you know where to go, Miss Archman?” Nellie was leaning forward, striving desperately to pierce the darkness. “No!" she gasped. *“l—l—everything is so dark—" “Lucky for us it is! They'd run us down in no time if they could see us.” The captain looked behind him. “Port your helm,” he cried. ‘*“Hard aport! Quick ! Nellie did not understand, but she obeyed the order instinctively and the | boat swung round at a right angle— Just in time, for as it veered its side grated against a point of rock, and Nellie saw with a shudder that what she supposed waa a bank of clouds was | a line of low, overhanging cliffs that edged the shore. “Steady!” ordered the captaln. “Now, Carr, two strong strokes and then lie on your oars and keep quiet.” The boat shot forward with renewed impetus; then slowed somF\vhnt as the oars ceased to drive it on. But it did not stop. Carr, watching the stars above the line of cliffs, saw that it was } still moving quietly. *“We seem to be In a current,” he muttered, almost inaudibly, @ the captain’s ear, “We are. There's a six-mile current along here, taking us right along. It'll take us to the place where our party landed teday. If we can get there before the moon gets over the top of the mountain we'll probably get away. Wateh for the break in the sky line; you won't be able to find it any other way. And now we'd better keep | quiet.” ! The moon shone vividly on the El | Rlo, but the pursuing boats had passed i into the heavy shadow of the Island | and the mountain and were invisible. | The fugitive boat drifted sllently,k gulded by the rudder and now and then ! by a cautious, almost inaudible move- | ment of Captain Bunker's oars. i Abruptly Nellle moved uneasily and | looked behind. “They're coming this ' way,” she murmured. | The confused noises of the pursuers’ 1 oars had separated themselves. One ! set had grown louder. Between the ‘ strokes the sound of the others could ; be heard more and more faintly. Un- | doubtedly the bouts had separated and | one was secking for the fugltives In i the right direetion. And it was fast | coming nearer. i Cautiously Captaln Bunker urged | the skiff on, moving his oars so silent- | ly that the others could scarcely hear | them. Even the drops from the blades | on the return stroke fell so short a | distance they made no sound. , “We've got to keep silent,” he whis- | pered, “If they hear us they'll catch 1 us quicker'n lightning. Watch for that ! gash in the cliff. We ought to be | mighty near it now.” § The pursuing boat was very near. | Feverishly the three in the skiff i scanned the ragged line of cliff that | was beginning to show more plninly' against the sky as the moon, still ris- | ing behind the mountain, cast its sheen | over the sky. i Suddenly Carr moved. “There it is,” | he muttered. ‘ A gash, rapidly widening, showed in | the sky line. With a swift but can-% tious stroke Bunker headed the boat | inward. ’ But Nellie leaned forward with a | gasp. “Suppose they are going ln.,’ too,” she panted. “Suppose they think | we are tryving to join mother?” z “Then they'll catch us, unless we get | ashore and hide,” said Captain Bunker, as he lay back on the oars and heaved mightily. Inward the boat shot, into a blacker gloom. Floating silently between the| rocky walls the three dimly saw the} pursuing boat dash across the mouth of the gash and heard, above the rat- i tle of the oars, the voice of the cox- | swain inciting the men to greater es-l forts. Quickly the sound died as the boat‘ shot past the edge of the gash. Then | Bunker drew a long breath. "Touch‘ and go!” he said, plunging his oars in | the water. “Come on, Carr! They can’t hear us now. Careful, Miss Nellie, watch the sky line and try to keep us in the middle of the channel.” Nellie cheyed. She detected the beginning of the curve in the course of the deflection of the sky line and steered the hoat around the curve and into the straight way to the beach. Then she uttered a cry. “They’re here,” she breathed. *“Mother’s here!” (TO BE CONTINUED.) Skulls as Scarecrows The word *scarecrow” usually conjures up the vision of tattered clothing on a rude framework, standing in the middle of a field, but far stranger bird scarers have sometimes been used, says London Tit-Bits. For example one Ceylonese cultiva- | tor guards his vegetables from blrdl pests by displaying two skulls on poles. One is that of a woman and the other of a buffalo. : One of the cleverest scarecrows ever | used was made by a Belgian farmer. | He set up a number of poles in the corn fields and conducted a wire from' one to the other. A bell was hung from the top of each pole and connected with the wire. The end of the wire was then fastened to a small waterwheel, and as this went round the bells tinkled, frightening all birds away. Versions Novice—Doesn’'t being in love open | a fellow’'s eyes?

Istration began its course on Monday, | when Ed Jackson of Indianapolis be- | came the whirty-first governor of In- ‘ diana, and F. Harold Van Orman of | Evansville was inducted into the office of the state’s lieutenant governor at a ! ceremony which was held amid a zala | | setting attended by hundreds of peo- | i ple in the statehouse corridors. While the c¢eremony was under way the l«-hinws of Christ church played patrii otic airs. Following the inauguration of these two state officials, Mrs. Edward Franklin White, of Indianapolis, the first woman to be elected to a state office in the history of the Hoosier commonwealth, became the reporter of the Indiana Supreme and Appellate courts, receiving the oath of of‘ﬁm- on the same specially prepared | platform and in the same setting as ‘nu- two other state officials.

Jackson’s Inaugural Address. | After taking the oath of office, Gov, ;I-ch Jackson made the following brief | address: “Honorable Senators, Representa- | tives, Judges, Ladies and Gentlemen: | —ln assuming the obligation that the | taking of this oath involves, I trust that 1 am duly appreciative of the very high honor conferred upon me. The holding of office cannot c¢lothe ! the holder with honor unless the | office be honored by the conscientious discharge of its duties by the holder. | The government belongs to the people. ! We who hold their commission are | only their servants. The rights of the | people must be guarded with an ever- | zealous and watchful eye. We should | stand firmly against the tendency toLward too much government. The peo- | ple have to bear the burden of their é government, and this burden should be | made tp rest as lightly as possible. | We have, in my judgment, the best | form of government in the world. We | must permit nothing to insinuate itselt linto our government that will weaken or be detrimental to it. Our govern- | ment is composed of three distinct de- | partinents: the executive, legislative ' and judicial. The prerogatives of one department should not be encroached | on by another. j Courage Required. | “In the discharge of the duties of | publie office. the exercise of calm, de- | liberate and unbiased judgment, as f\\pll as courage, is required. There | will be those who will offer counsel 4 from a class viewpoeint: also those | whose counsel will be prompted by %soltish motives: there will be others { who will attempt to dictate and, fail- | ing in that. will try to harm by ecriti- | cism. Against all of these one must | he fortiied by manly courage sufficient ;ln do right .uninfluenced and unde- | terred.
