DIAMOND CUT DIAMOND By RUTH GRAHAM Henry Dickinson and Arthur Treat. both gold hunters, met In California years ago, when the country was wild, and after a life of hardship owned to-, gather a hole in the ground that prom- ised to make them rich. Within a mile of them a man named Barker kept a store.. Barker had some money, and the partners told him of their fiud and asked him to put in capital to develop' it, offering him an eighth interest Barker learned all he wished from them about their mine, then said that mining was too risky a business for him; he wouldn't invent In talking matters over Treat let Barker into a secret concerning his pest life. He had become indebted in the east and so involved that he had taken French leave and gone to California to make a fresh start. If his mine panned out well he would pay, his debts One ..day Treat went to Barker's store for some provisions and on the way back to his mine was kidnaped, , taken to San Francisco and thence to Philadelphia. There his creditors, s • who had captured him, kept him in jail on various charges, because it had been reported to them that he bad made money which lie was •concealing. But Treat finally convinced them that all be bad in the world was an unde- veloped mine in California. ' I5 they would give him a chance to develop it they would get their money. They freed him, and he succeeded in get- ting sortie capital from a relative, Then be returned to California after an absence of five months. There he found his partner 10 jail charged with his (Treat's) murder. Dickinson was released at once, and the two held a conference. When their stories were put together it*came out ' that Barker had laid out a plan to get possession of their mine. He wrote Treat's creditors that he had made money, and they arranged for his kid- naping, getting him away so secretly that no one knew what had become of him. Then Barker through paid stool pigeons manufactured evidence to show that Dickinson had murdered his partner. The first impulse of the partners on Seeing through a scheme by which both had suffered and Dickinson had been sentenced to be hanged was to punish Barker legally. But after in- vestigation they found that he had covered his tracks so adroitly that he would have every advantage. Besides, the law was not well administered, and even if they could convict Barker they would find it difficult to get him punished. • They therefore decided to fight him in the way he had fought them. Treat had brought money with him to devel- op the mine, but this they concealed from Barker. They pretended to be discouraged and begged Barker to visit their mine, see for himself what it was worth and invest on his own terms. They had no difficulty in convincing him of the mine's, value, and after much hagglinghe agreedto let them have $10,000 if they would cede to him a haiff interest. They at once engaged a lawyer to draw up an agreement and submitted it to Barker. He was satisfied with it, and Dickinson copied it. Then all signed it, and one of the copies was delivered to Barker on payment of the money. , For a time after that the mine did well, but the partners soon told Bar- ker that they must have more money. He grumbled. but agreed to give them $8,000 more for half their interest, making his own three-quarters. The transaction was completed, and Bar- ker, who knew what the ore was pay- ing, aying, was well pleased. But the part- ners artners soon wanted more money and got it from Barker for half of their quar- ter interest, giving him all the mine ex- cept xsept an eighth. The partners begged him not to be so hard on them, but he was relentless. When the partners once more called on Barker for more money he denied them. but offered to buy their remain- ing eighth Interest. They finally as- sented, but with great apparent re- luctance. The money was paid and a bill of sale made out .and signed by Dickinson and Treat. who were given a mouth to softie up their affairs and turn over the pio erta. 1'be ntonttt pnswd, lint the pni'tners, 6.Ntwui "e mottling nn theft nti':1irq, GoodHealthls Impossible Without a Healthy Action Of The Kidneys When the kidneys begin to "act up" and fail to filter the blood through them, there passes into the system uric acid and ;sons w will cause other Virulent poisons, which v h some of the severest and most deadly diseases known to mankind.

Mr. Israel Drost, Bath, N.B., this am sending. you th s testi- monial telling you what a wonderful cure Doan's Kidney Pills made for me. My kidneys were so bad I was helpless for about two months. I used several kinds of pills, but none of them seemed to be doing me any good. At last I was advised to try a box of Doan's Kidney Pills, When I :had taken the first' box I found relief, and then I got another, and by the time I had taken it, I was completety cured." • Doan's Kidney Pills are 50 cents per box or 3 for $1.25, at all dealers or mailed direct on receipt of price by The T. ;mitre Toronto Ont.

"We own this mine," said Dickinson, "and we propose to keep it." "We'll see about that," was Barker's reply, and he opened his documents. What was his surprise to see nothing but blank paper. When the miners had laid - their scheme to circumvent Barker, Treat, who before coming to California had been a manufacturer of ink, knew of a mixture that would look like ink, but would fade entirely out within a few • days after being used on paper, Be. fore making any papers for Barker he had gone to San Francisco and pro- cured some of this ink, and every doe nment given Barker had been written with it. Barker, who was ruined, threatened criminal proceedings, but the partners had covered their tracks as well as he had covered his in his diabolical scheme to get their mine. Dickinson & Treat sold their property for $200,- 000 and a half interest Treat paid hie debts in tun. Tobogganed to Matrimony. The newest elopement trick was re cently worked in Switzerland; where the parents of the couple went on a trip to the top of a mountain. Wbne they were there the couple got a bob• sled, coasted down the mountain side r before 8 on an express were astray y p the parents could get down the moue tsin on the railway. Installing Wireless. The Canadian Government regula- tions requiring all passenger steam- ers to instal wireless equipment came into force at the first of this year, and the naval service department has had a busy time lately .seeing that the vessels all secure the wlrelees and comply with the regulations. In addition the department has had to examine the hundreds of candidates' who seek to qualify as wireless oper- ators. A considerable number of the candidates have been refused cer- tificates on first examination, but in most cases they have oome back again. showing great improvement and have passed. The department sends out examiners to the varlon's districts all . over the country, and. examinations are held at stated j times, while at Ottawa and at Vic- toria, B.C., candidates can' come for i examination at any time. The passenger steamers coming undere the act have all installed the wireless, even those sailing only 'a short distance from port to port, but with many passenger vessels, such as the 'boats from Toronto to Nia- gara, navigation is not dangerous, but the numbers carried are often great. The steamers crossing the Bay of Fundy and those sailing from Sydney to St. John's, Newfoundland, must also be equipped with wireless, though, because the distance is not great, navigation is frequently dan- gerous. Coal Near Battlefora. A member of the local Assembly for Athabasca reports seeing samples of anthracite coal in the vicinity of Meadowlake. It is believed that by further prospecting large fields of coal will be opened up 70 miles north of the city. Must Protect Eskimos. U the Government of Canada wants to preserve the Eskimos of the far North, says M. Vanaase in a re- cent report, they will very soon have to put a stop to the depredations, plunders and thefts . of which the Eskimos are the victims on the part of the rovers of the sea. The Gov- ernment of Denmark has shown a noble example in this respect in favor of the Greenland Eskimos.
