YOU MUSTN'T PRAYIN TACOMAS PARKS

The ruling of the Metropolitan Hon:Park Board against public pray-ing ln the parks has aroused theIre of Tacoma\s ministers.. The ruling came as a result ofan application by the Y. W. C. A.for permission to hold open-airreligious meetings in the parksthis summer. Secretary Gowerof the board replied the associa-tion might do so, provided "thatno meeting shall be opened orclosed with prayer or have prayerfor any portion of the exercises."

Here Is what a few Tacomaministers think about the situa-

The Rev. F. L. Moore, TrinityMethodist church—"A piece offoolishness —-a most peculiar rul-ing."

The Rev. Frank Dyer.—"TheAmerican people do not discussthe issues of life enough. I be-lieve In a free use of the parks.Think of permitting n Christianmeeting In a Christian countryand then prohibiting a Christianprayer to a Christian God!" ,

The Rev. Delmer Trimble. —"It would seem that God Is notin the parks."

Hi JACK LONDON.it'ontinueil from Yesterday.)lilt head dropped forward on

the table and waa burled In hithands. Front time to time Itrooked back and forward aa withpain. Once, when he half ralaedIt, I taw the sweat standing lnheavy drops on bis foreheadabout the roots of his hair.

"I am a sick man, a very sickman." he repeated again, and yetonce again.

"What is the matter?" I asked,resting my hand on his Rhoulder."What can I do for you?"

Hut he shook my hand off withan irritated movement, and fora long time 1 stood by his sideIn silence. Maud was looking on,tier face awed and frightened.What had happened to him wecould not Imagine.

"Hump," he aald at last, "Imust get into my bupk. Lendme a baud. I'll be all right In alittle while. It's those damnheadaches, I believe. I was afraidof them. 1 had a feellng--no,I don't know what I'm talkingiilni.it. Help me into my bunk."

£lon boxes they carried la the•oats, and here, but a few featfrom their noisy revels, 1 tookpossession of two boxes.

Next, to lower a boat. Not .10\u25a0\u25a0pie a task for one man. Hav-ing cast i.rr the lashings. I hoist-ed first on the forward tackle,then on the aft, till the boatclearetl the rail, when 1 loweredaway, oue tackle and then theother, for v couple of feet, tillIthung snugly, above the water,against the schooner's side. Imade certain that It contained theproper equipment of oars, row-locks, and sail. Water waa aconsideration, and 1 robbed ev>ryboat Hi.iiiinl of Ita breaker Aathere were nine boats all told. Itmeant that we should have plentyof wjitcr, and ballast as well,though there was the chance thatthe boat would be overloaded,what of the generous supply ofother things 1 was taking.

While Maud wus passing methe provisions and I waa storingthem in the boat, a Bailor cameon deck from the forecastle. Heatood by the weather rail for atime, (we were lowering over thelee rail), and then sauntered

\u25a0lowly amidships, where he againpaused and Btood facing the wind,•wUb his back toward us. 1 couldheffr my heart beating as 1\u25a0touched low In the boat. Maudbad sunk down upon the deck andwas, I knew, lying motionless,her body In the shadow of thebulwark. Hut tlie man neverturned, and, after stretching hisannH above his head and yawningaudibly, he retraced his steps tothe forecastle scuttle and disap-peared.

A few minutes sufficed to finishtin loading, and 1 lowered theboat iC|to the water. Ah 1 helpedMuud over the rail and felt herform i-lose to mine, It was all 1could do to keep from crying out,"I love you! I love you!" TrulyHuiii|iliri>y Van Weyden was atlast, in love, 1 thought, as her fin-gers clung tv mine while I low-ered her down to I lie boat. 1 heldon to the rail with one band andeupported her weight with theother, and I was proud at themoment of the feat. It was astrength 1 had not possessed a fewmonths In lure, on the day 1 saidgood-bye to Charley Furuseth andstarted for San Francisco on theyX-ijUyil Marline/..

boat ascended on a sea,her feet touched and 1 releasedher hands. I cast off the tacklesand leaped after her. I bad neverrowed ln my life, but 1 put outthe oars and at the expense ofmuch effort got the boat clear ofthe (Ibost. Then 1 experimentedwith the sail. I had seen theboat steerers aud hunters settheir sprltsalls many times, yetthle was my first attempt. Whattook them possibly two minutestook me twenty, but ln the end

I succeeded in setting and trim-ming 11, and with the steerlng-oar In my bands hauled on thewind.

"There Ilea Japan," I remark-ed, "etralght before ua."

"Humphrey Van Weyden." shesaid, "you are a brave man."

"Nay," 1 answered, "It Is youwho are a brave woman."

We turned our heada, awayedby a common Impulse to see thelast of the Cbost. Her low hulllifted and rolled to windward ona sea: her canvas loomed darklyIn the night; her lashed wheelcreaked as the rudder kicked;Ihenslght and sound of her fadedaway and we were alone ou thodark sea.

riIAPTKR XXVIIDay broke, gray and chill. The

boat was close-hauled on a freshbreeze nnd the compass Indicatedthat we were Just making thecourse which would bring us toJapan. Though stoutly mlllened.my fingers were cold, and theypained from the grip on the steer-lng-oar. My feet were stingingfrom the bite of the frost, and Ihoped fervently that the sunwould shine.

liefon- me, in the bottom of theboat, lay Maud. She, at least,was warm, for under her andover her were thick blankets.The top one I had drawn overher face to shelter It from thenight, so I could Bee nothing butthe vngue shape of her, and herllght-browu hair, escaped fromthe covering and Jeweled withmoisture from the air.

Hut when I got htm Into bisbunk he again burled his facein ins hands, covering his eyes,and us I turned to go I could hearhim murmuring, "I am a sickma ii. a very sick man."

Maud looked at me Inquiring-ly as 1 emerged. 1 shook myhead, saying:

"Something has happened tohim. What. 1 don't know. He ishelpless, and frightened, I im-agine, for the first time in hislife, it must have occurred be-fore he received the knife-thrust,which made only a superficialwound. You must have seen\\ hut happened." *She shook her head. "I sawnothing. It is just aa mysteri-ous to me. lie suddenly releasedme and staggered away. Butwhat shall we do? What Bball 1do?"

Long 1 looked at her, dwellingupon that one visible bit of heras only a man would who deemedIt the nniHl prccloul thing in theworld. Ho insistent was my gazethat at lust she stirred under theblankets, tlie top fold was thrownbuck inn' she smiled out on me,her eyes yet heavy with sleep

"Oood morning, Mr. Van Wey-den," she said. "Have you sight-ed laud yet?"

"If you will wait, please, untilI come back." I answered.

1 went on deck. Louts was atthe wheel.

"You may go for'ard and turnin," 1 said, taking It from hiui.

lie was quick to obey, and Ifound myself alone on the deckof the Ghost. As quietly as waspossible, 1 clewed up the topsails,lowered the flying Jib and stay-sail, backed the jib over, andflattened the mainsail. Then lwent below to Maud. I placed myfinger on my lips for silence, andentered Wolf Larsen a room. Hewas ln the same posit ion ln whichI had left him, and his head wasrocking -almost writhing- -fromaide to side.

"Anything I can do for you?"I asked.

He made no reply at first, buton my 'repeating the question heanswered, "No, no: I'm all right.Leave me alone till morning."

But as I turned to go I notedthat bis head had resumed Itsrocking motion. Maud waa wait-ing patiently for me, and I tooknotice, with a thrill of joy, ofthe queenly poise of her head andher glorious, calm eyes. Calmand sure they were as her spiritItself.

"No," 1 answered, "but we nrcapproaching it at a rate of sixinilcs an hour."

She made a move of disappointnien I.

"Hut that is equivalent to onehundred and forty-four miles Intwenty-four hours," 1 added re-asHtirtngly.

Her fuce brightened. "And howfar have we to go?"

"Slberoiii lies off there." I said,pointing to tlie west. "But to thesouthwest, some six hundredmiles, is Japan. If tills windshould hold, we'll mak)e It lnfive days."

"And If It storms? The boatcould not live?"

She had a way of looking oneIn the eyes and demanding thetruth, and thus she looked at meaa she asked the question.

"lt would have to storm very

Will you trust yourself to mefor a Journey of six hundred milesor so?" I asked.

"You mean—?" she asked, and1 knew she-had guessed aright.

"Yes, I mean just that," I ree-plied. "There Is nothing left forus but the open boat."

"For me, you mean," she sajld."You are certainly aa safe here asyou have been." »

"No, there Is nothing left forus but the open boat," I Iteratedstoutly. "Will you please dressas warmly as you can, at once,and make Into a bundle whateveryou wish to bring with you."

"And make all haste," I added,as she turned toward her state-room.

The lazarette was directly be-neath the cabin, and, opening thetrap-door in the floor and carry-ing a candle with me, 1 droppeddown and began overhauling theship's stores. I selected mainlyfrom the canned goods, and bythe time I was ready, willinghands were extended from aboveto receive what 1 passed up.

We worked in silence. I help-ed myself also to blankets, mit-tens, oilskins, caps, and suchthings, from the slop-chest. Itwaa no light adventure, thistrusting oursel/ea In a amall boatto so raw and stormy a sea, andIt was Imperative that we shouldguard ourselves against the coldand wet.

We worked feverishly at carry-ing our plunder on deck and de-positing It amidships, bo fever-ishly that Maud, whose strengthwas hardly a positive quantity,had to give over, exhausted, andalt on the steps at the break ofthe poop. This did not serve torecover her, and she lay on herback, on the hard deck, armsstretched out and whole body re-laxed. It was a trick I remem-bered of my sister, and 1 knewshe would soon be herself again.I knew, alao, that weapons wouldnot come in amiss, and I re-en-tered Wolf Larsen's state-room toget his rifle and shotgun. Ispoke to him, but he made no an-swer, though hia head waa stillrocking from side to side and bewaa not asleep.

"Good-bye, Lucifer," I whis-pered to myself as I softly closedthe door.

"Why, you are chilledthrough!" she cried. "Look!You are shivering. Don't denyIt; you are. And here I havebeen lying warm as toast."

"I don't see that It would helpmatters, if you, too, sat up andwere chilled," 1 laughed.

She sat up and began makingher simple toilet. She shookdown her hair, and It fell abouther In a brown cloud, hiding herface and shoulders. Dear, dampbrown hair! 1 wanted to kiss It,to ripple It through my fingers,to bury my face lv It. I gazedentranced, till the boat ran intotlie wind und the flapping sailwarned me 1 was not attendingto my duties. Idealist and ro-manticist that I was aud alwayshad been In spite of my analyti-cal nature, yet I had failed tillnow ln grasping much of the phy-sical characteristics of love. Thelove of man and woman, I had al-ways held, was a sublimatedsomething related to spirit, aspiritual bond that linked anddrew their souls together. Thebonds of the flesh bad little part'in my cosmos of love. But I waslearning the sweet leison for my-1self that the soul transmuted it-self, expressed Itself, throughthe flesh; that the sight andsense and touch of the lovedone's hair was as much breathand voice and essence of thespirit as the light that shonefrom the eyes and the thoughtsthat fell from the lips. After all,pure spirit was unknowable, athing to be sensed and divinedonly; nor could it express itselfln terms of itself. Jehovah wasanthropomorphic because hecould address himself to the Jewsonly in terms of their understand-ing; so he was conceived as intheir own Image, as a cloud, apillar of fire, a tangible, physicalsomething which the mind of theIsraelites could grasp.

And so I gazed upon Maud'slight-brown hair, and loved It,and learned more of love thanull the poets and singers hadtaught me with all their songsand sonnets. She flung It backwith a sudden adroit movement,and her face emerged, smiling.

JACK LANGK.

LOS ANGELES, March V .—.Fight fire with fire is the battlecry ot the 3000 citizens of Wattswho will end a long fight withrailroad companies for cheaperfare April 5 by voting on a munic-ipal lltney bus line.

Foi- years citizens of Wattshave been compelled to pay 1 >cents one way fare to their town,although It Is scarcely three milesbeyond the 5-cent limits of I.oaAngeles.

Trustee Jack Lange offered thaJitney bus as a solution.

In one year's time, we willsave the people of Watts $12,000it. car faes, as the Pacific Elec-tric railroad now realises morethan $.10,000 a year from thoWatts line. Watts will thus saroin fares the Initial cost of the in-vestment," says Lange.

"We intend to purchase I*lcars and build a garage wltb tha$12,001 «f It is voted.*'
