IF DORIS WHITE bad not fallen In
to Ills arms, Rob Richards would
never have given her another thought.
He was clumping up the last llight
of dark, oilcloth covered stairs, when
he heard a little gasp and then some
thing soft mid yielding was Hung head
first Into Ills arms. He caught her
as easily as he had caught the ball
when he was fielder, and having set
her on her feet gently asked in his
big voice with the trace of huskiness
In it. “Hurt any?”
She breathed quickly, and answered.
•*I_1 guess you saved my life!” There
was just trie suggesuuu ui a iuupu »«
that voice that went straight to Bob’s
heart.
“You see. I must have caught my
toe in the oilcloth." she explained.
Bob thought she had the softest,
sweetest voice he had heard for a
tong time.
"I think m.v dinner Is forever lost!”
Doris said sadly, stooping to feel about
the stairs.
They found at last the head of let
tuce, tlie two rolls still in their bag
and the lemon that was to help make
up the dinner. In the process they
said several things to each other, al
together trite and yet somehow most
Illuminating.
So It was not strange that the second
time Bob ran into the occupant or the
hall bedroom he lifted his hat and
* stopped to talk.
= The third time they met, Bob asked
directly, wouiu you a »uu,
me this afternoon?”
The faintest tinge of color showed
through Doris’ white slcin and she said
—for It was Saturday—"I’d love to!”
They walked along Fifth avenue,
stopping before the shop windows to
peer in and feeling a part of all the
thrill and stir of an afternoon on the
avenue.
Doris’ eyes were shining and she
was actually prettier each time Bob
Richards looked down at her.
The next Saturday it rained and
Doris hesitated and then knocked at
the door on the second tloor that bore
the card : “Robert Richards.”
“1 thought you might have tea with
me. it's such a cold, dismal kind of
afternoon,” Doris offered shyly.
At the answering gleam of pleasure
in his eyes Doris hurried up the flight
of stairs. She knew it would mean
that she must lunch meagerly all the
following week, but she bought crump
ets—toasted them over her gas burner
—and a tiny Jar of marmnlade, and a
spruv of narcissus to put in the bowl
by the window.

At Ills 1011(1 rap sue oyeueu uci umi
and smiled up at him.
Bob laid down a box of candy as he
said. "I bought It for the party,” and
looked about Idtn curiously.
For it was the oddest hall bedroom
he had ever seen. He had Imagined a
room with a bureau and an Iron bed,
and enough room Just to sit on the
one chair. What he saw was a room
with two windows and an alcove, a
room that looked sunny in spite of the
fact that It was raining, because the
walls were yellow and charming sun
ny colored chintz hung at the windows
and covered the cushions of the -two
brown tinted wicker chairs.
Gleaming brass candlesticks were on
a table in the corner, a brilliant color
print of blue mountain and an icy
mountain brook bung over the gray
painted table. A couch under a tum
ble of cushions—and a black luster
bowl held the frail narcissus in the
window.
Doris sitting down at the table pour
ing tea into clear yellow cups, he sud
denly saw us another girl. A girl re
moved from his own hard struggles by
an me oeauiy oi uus emu minx room.
Why. she must earn more in a week
than lie did to have a place like this!
For a month Doris scarcely saw the
owner of the room on the second floor.
When she did meet him by chance, he
hurried past her with an abrupt "Good
evening!”
But once when site climbed the two
flights of stairs and saw that Bob’s
door was open and a strange girl was
standing by the black marble mantel
piece, her heart seemed like a piece of
lead. She could scarcely drag herself
away.
Alaska Murder Mystery
Is Believed Solved
That the “Blueberry Tommy”
case ha- been solved after the
expiration of 19 years was the
(belief pf New York police fol
| lowing the arrest of Thomas D.
j Johnson and resultant partial
| identification cf him as the
man accused 101 rauraenng
I three persons in cold blood on
j the Koyokuk River back in
; 1915, says a press statement
from the Alaska Delegate’s
j office.
I Johmion was arrested in New
j York May 25, charged with
uisurueriy cuiiuucl aiiu sumcil
ing alms. A resemblance in
names and reference to a pho
tograph of the hunted mam led
to the Department of Justice
being called into the case.
Fingerprints were not used,
contrary to newspaper reports,
i since r.o fingerprints were on
1 file of “Blueberry Tommy,” or
; as he also was known, “The
Blueberry Kid.”
Johnson was indicted in Fair
banks for the crime, one o/f the
moot cold-blooded in Alaska
| annals. With Marie Schmidt,
Frank Adams and John Holm
berg, Johnson was traveling
down the Koyokuk from Wise
man in the launch Seal Pup.
Holmberg had with him about
1 $10,000 in geld dust.
The party never arrived at
their detonation. Subsequent
ly Johnson was seen and still
i later human bones were found
at a camp site on the Koyiokuk,
according to Justice Depart
ment records. Indictment of
! “The Blueberry Kid” followed
but he vanished utterly and no
trace of him was found until
the present. Of course, the
Department of Justice insists,
there still may be a mistake in
identity. Ijt is planned to bring
witnesses from the Northwest
and Alaska to New York in an
attempt to identify Johnson.

seen your room and It Is so pretty—”
Doris answered, wondering how she
could go on talking when the bottom
of her little wdrld had dropped out.
“1 bought the hangings on Sixth ave
nue at a sale, and the candlesticks In
Allen street for you can find
some second-hand furniture and paint
it yourself; oh, yes, I'll show you how.’’
She smiled wistfully and went on up
1 the stairs.
But the blood thrummed in her ears
madly when she heard clumping steps

| Richards coming toward her with a
j bewildered, dawning happiness in his
"1 heard what you said,” he began,
“1 had to come back. 1 thought I’d go
away and try to forget you—for 1
i knew I couldn’t ask a girl with all
you had to marry a poor fellow like
me. You mean it, Doris, you fixed up
that room out of nothing?"
He caught her hands and looked
down Into her eyes.
"Don't you know I love you?”
“But—” she whispered.
“I was ashamed to ask a rich girl
to marry me," he said as he took her
' in his arms. _
