The federal government aimed to say nothing, to put no obstacles in the way or the Rassiati *gent, provided he could abduct hie trio without seriously clashing with the New York pollee authorities. Is was a recognized feet that the local polies force wanted the newspaper glory which would attend the crushing of the Black Hundred. It would be an exploit, But their glory was nil; nor did Servantake hie trio back with hie to Russia, Many etr'ange things happened that might, the night of the final adven- ture. Florence sat in her room readiug: The book was "Oliver Twist," not the pleasantest sett of book to read under the existing circuwstancee, Several times --she had reached the place where Fagin overheard Nancy's con- feesion-she fancied she heard doors closing softly, but credited it to her imagination. Poor Newry, who want- ed to be good but did not find time to be! Fioren:;e possessed s. habit fam- iliar to most of us; the need of apples or candy when we are reading. So she rang the bell for her mead, intend - lag to auk her to bring up some apples. She turned to bar reading, presently to break off and stripe the bell again. Where was that maid? She waited perhaps five minutes, then laid down the book and began to investigate. There was not a servant to be found In the entire house! What in the world could that mean? Used as elle was to heartrending suspenses, she was none the less terrified. Something had tak- en the servants from she house. From whence was the danger to come this time. Where was Jones? Why did he not return as he had promised ? It wart long past the hour when he said be would be back. She went into the library and picked up the telephone. She was told that Mr. Norton was out on an assignment, but that she would be notified the moment be returned. She opened a drawer in the debit. She touched the automatic but did not take it up, She left the drawer' open, however. Earlier, at the newspaper office that night, Jim went into the • managing editor's oifice and laid a bulky mauu. script on that gentleman's desk. "Is this it ?" "It is," said Jim. "You have captured them ?" "No; bat there is a net about them frowwhich not one shalt escape. There's the story of my adventures, of the ad- ventures of Mies Hargreave and the butler, Jones. You'll find it exciting reading. You might just as wen send it up to the composing room. At mice night 1'11 telephoue the introduction. It's a scoop. Don't worry about that; The editor riffled the pages. "A hundred and twelve pages, 300 words to the page; man, it's a novel "It'll read like one." "Sit down for a moment and let me skim through the fleet story." At the end of ten minutes the ;editor laid down the copy. He opened a drawer and took out two envelopes. The blue one lie tore up dropped d o r e d into the waste basket. Norton under- stool and smiled. ,bey had meant to discharge turn if he fell down. wn, The g other envelope was a fat one. • "Open it," said the editor, smiling a little himself. This envelope contained a check for $2,500, two round trip first class tick- ets to Liverpool, together with innum- erable continental tickets Web as ars i,eued to touriete. "Why two," asked Jim. innocently. 'N.lrget it my buy, forget it. You ought to know that in this wilco s e don't eml:loy bland men.

Oa and get married; and if ynu return before the three months are up, I'll tire you myself on general principles," Jim laughed happily and the two men shook hands. Then Jim went forth to complete the big assignment. Five minutes later, Florence called him up to learn that he had gone. e What should elle do ? Jones had told her to stay in the house and not to leave it. But where was he? Why die he not come ? What was the meaning of this desertion by the ser- vants ? She wandered about aimless- ly,16king out of windows, itn;agln- ing forms in the shadows. Her imag- inations had not deceived her; she had heard doors close softly. "Susan, Susan!" she murmured; but Susan was in the hospital. Oliver Twist! What had possessed ber to start reading that old tale again? She should have read some- thing of a light and joyous character. After half an hour's wandering about the lonely house she returned to the library, feeling that she would be saf- er where both telephone and revolver were. •- And while she sat waiting, for she knew not what, her ewiftly beating heart sending the blood into her throat so that it &Most suffocated her., a man turned into the street and walked rs- sututely toward the Hargreave place, He passed a man leaning against e. lamp peat, but he never turned to look at biro. .) That man, however, threw away bis "Look!" aereamed Olga. cigar and hot footed it to the nearest Everyone turned, to Jones' face pay station. He knew in his soul that peeling between 'the curtains. There he had just seen the man for whom was an ironic smile on the butler's they had been hunting all these weary lips, Tile face vanished, but strenuous weeks -Stanley Har- "After him! cried Braine, reieas- greave in the flesh! Half an hour after ing Florence. his telephone message the chiefof the Blank Hundred and many Lesser lights were on their way to the house of my- stery. Had they but known ! Now, the man who had created this tremendous .agitation vent serenely an, fie proceeded directly and fear- lessly to the front door produced a latch key and entered. He parked through the hall and reception room to the library and paused nn the threshold dramatically, Florence stepped back with a sharp cry of alarm. She bad heard the hall door open and close and had taken it. fpr granted that Jones had returned. There was a tableau of short. dura ton. '"Don't you know me?" asked the stranger in a singularly pleasant. voice. Florence had been imposed upon tar, many times. She shook her head definitely, though her knees shook so that she was certain that the Ieast touch would send her over. Florence slipped unsteadily behind the desk and seized tbe revolver which lay in the drawer, The man by the curtains smiled sadly, It was a smile that caused Florence to waver a bit. Still, she extended her arm. "You do not believe me?" said the man advancing slowly. "No. I have been deceived too man timer), y t m e, sir. Stay where you are. You will wait here till my but- ler returns. 0, if I were only sure!" she buret out suddenly and passionate- ly, What proof have you that you are what you say?" He came toward her, holding out his bands, "This, that you cannot sl oat me. Ab, the damnable wretch era What have they done to you, my child, to snake you suspicious of every one? How I have watched over you in secret! I will tell you what only Jones and the reporter know, th tt the evictor died, that I alone was rescued, that I gave Nor- r.xt tbe five thousabd, that I watched the windows of the Russian woman, and overheard nearly every plot that was hatched in the council cha cher of the Black Hundred; that I was abet in the arm while crossing the lawn one night. And now we have th- t•coundrels just where we vivant them. `They [veil be in thie house for me within half an hoer, end not one of them will leave it in freedom. I ata your father, l:+'lorence; I ata the lonely father who bas spent the beat years of hie life away froth you In order to secure your safety. Can't you feel the truth of all til' '' (•No, nol Please do not approach any nearer; stay where you art!" At that moment the telephone rang With the revolver still leveled s)iF pieked tip the rectoiver. "Hello, hello! eVho le it? . , i 0, Jim, Jim, ane at one(1 I ani ho d• At that moment alta heard a sous at the door. Her gaze roved; and it was enough for the man. He reached oat and caught her arm, She tried to tear herself loose, "My child. In God'e name, listen to reason? They are entering the, hall and they will have us both;" Suddenly Florence knew. She could not have told you why; but Otero was an appeal in the man's: voice that went to her heart. "You are say father!" "Yes, yes! But you've found It out just a trifle too late, my dear. Qulok; this side of the desk!" Braine and his men dashed Into the library. Olga. entered leisurely, "Both of them!" yelled Braine ex- ultantly. "Both of them together; what luck!" There was a sharp, fierce strnggie; and when it came to an end Har- greave was trussed to a chair, 1:3"Ah, so we meet again, Hargreave!" said Braine, Hargreave shrugged. What he wanted was time. "Amillion! We have you. Where is it, or I'll twist your heart before your eyes." "Father, forgive me!" "1 understand, my child." "Where is it?" Braine seized Fior• since by the wrist and swung her to- ward him. "Don't tell biro, father; don't mind me," said the girl bravely. Braine, smiling his old evil smile, drew the girl close. It was the last time he ever touched her. "After him." mimicked a voice f mu the hall. The curtains were thrown back suddenly. Jones appeared and Jam and the Russian agent and a dozen policemen. Tableau! Braine was the only man who kept hit head. He floored Norton, emaeh- ed a window, and leaped out. The blow dazed Norton, but he was on his feet almost instantly and follow- ed Braine through the window. Across the lawn the two sped, with an exchange of shots which emptied both automatios but did no damage. Braine headed for his auto. He jumped in, only to be hauled out again by the furious reporter. A band -to -band fight followed, and the clean life of the reporter told, "There, my angelic "friend, I be- lieve that the game is up. There is one ehot left in this automatic. If you make any attempt to escape I'll let you have it; not to kill you but to disable. You and _your precious countess will sail to -morrow for the Baltic, and from there you will go to the lead mines." He dragged itis prisoner toward the hottse. "Your troubles are over,_ my child,', said Hargreave, as be pressed Flor. ence to his heart. "And mine have begun," murmured the countess. "But I have still one shot." The police stood • encircling her. Calmly she opened her handbag and took out her handkerchief. It was a tbick and heavy silk one, Swiftly she unscrewed the top of her walk- ing stick et will be seas now that the carrying of it was not an affec- tation!), extracted a vial, and then fell violently to the floor. An over- powering sweet odor filled the room. Jones, knowing how deeply versed Braine was in Oriental poisons and narcotics, made a desperate but fu- tile effort to tear dpwn a curtain to throw over the maid; but even in the effort be felt his senses going. The last he was conscious of was a mocking laugh, But the entrance ofJim dragging g Braine after him, shocked all the banter out the countess.

"Yes" went on the reporter, "I re- cognized hint long ago," "It 1e true?' said Hargreave, tak. inn, Jones' hand in hip awn. "Fifteen years ago I employed him to watch ray affairs, and very well has h done Bo.

So presently, Hargreave, Jones, Florence and Jim were alone. That ewlle which had revealed to Flor- ence her father's identity stole over his face again. He put his hand on Jim's shoulder and beckoned to Flor- ence. "Ara you really anxious to marry this young man?" Florence nodded, "Well, then do so. And go to Eur- ope with him on your honeymoon; and as a wedding present to you both, for every dollar that he has I will add a hundred; and when you get tired of travel you will both come back here to live. The Black Hundred has ceased to exist,' "And now," said Jones, shaking his shoulders. Weil?" said Hargreave. "My business is done. Still-----" Jones paused. "Go on", said Hargreave soberly, "Well, the truth ie, sir, I've grown used to you. And if you'll let me play the butler till the end I shall be most happy" • ` - "I was going to suggest it." • Norton took Florence by the hand and drew ber away:" "Where are .you taking the?" she asked. • e I'm going to take tbia pretty band of yours and put it flat upon $1,000,000. And if you don't believe it, follow me " She followed, (Tae End.) Race Poisoning. To the Editor--- Sir-fs It true that the white race are being slowly poisoned off the face of the earth, thtst men, are growing smaller, disease increasing, doctors and stores multiplying, the insane increasing out of all proportion to the increase of population, and the weaklings and unfit threatening to equal in number those who are able to take care of themselves? Is it true that the moderate drinker who pro- bably has never been drunk may leave behind him a race of weaklings on account of his self indulgence? Is it true that where prohibition has been pretty well enforced for a number of years that the insane, the weakminded and the idiots bave decreased in a wonderful manner? Is it true that many of the great nations of Europe have become so alarmed at tbe de- generacy caused by •the use of intoxicants that they are trying by posters, handbills and other means to warn the people of their danger ? If these serious statements are even half true, and they are wholly true, what ;cindof people are 'we that do not rise in a masa as the people did in Russia and demand that this poison- ing of the nation abet' cease. It is humiliating to find that nations that we have been calling "Heathen" have more care for the national welfare and Stability than we. China bas con- quered in her war against opium. A large colony of negroes in New York with property valued at many millions are fouud to .have less than half the number of saloons that the surround- ing whites have. Now we have the news that Russia bas abandoned. the use of intoxicants of all kinds. Re- cently the great cities of Petrograd and Moscow have refused, by a popu- lar vote, to allow the use of ever; beer and light whore.
