"Gentlemen," asked. the leader, "what
disposition do you care to make regarding
Mr. Gwyn's proposition?"
"It is nothing! It is everything!"
Balterman shouting impatiently. "The
price Islay be ridiculous, but it is reason-
able --it is irnportant• There is no need to
dicker childishly with Mr. Gwyn It
would be useless, He understands our
situation, as he informed us. Ile knows
that we cannot secure cinnabar anywhere
in the United States—or anywhere on
God's earth, for that matter—except from
him, and he intends to charge us for it
accordingly I don't blame him He is

our whole enterprise and its success, as well
as the nation's welfare, And, gentlemen,
Mr. Gwynis a man to depend on, It is

refuse, you may carry Ant yourown af-

my connections with this enterprise. You
may do as you please. Gentlemen, what

The effect of Balterman's threat to
withdraw both his influence and his capit-
al was astounding There was not
a moment's hesitation, The proposition
was accepted.
Balterman turned to Gwyn. "We ac-

"Mr, Gwyn?" he questioned. "This is

He is surprisingly young for the influence for anywhere in one hour. I am with you
which he wields, but the point to remem- to the greatest extent of my power, and
ber is that he is just as big as his job.
And he's on the level "
The others nodded.
It was less than fifteen ininutes before
Gwyn was announced. He came into
the room with a briskness that contrasted
sharply with the august dignity tit the
directors who were deliberating over such
a weighty problem, and shook Balterman
heartily by the hand.
Balterman lost no time in getting to
the point.
"We have been conferring about our
new explosive," he announced. "You no
doubt have heard of it. There are cer-
tain ingredients which are essential in the
manufacture of it and which we are desir-
pus of obtaining. One of these is cinna-
bar It is imperative that all our plans
and ops"rations be absolutely confidential•
for there will be much in our actions that
would be invaluable to the Central Pow-
e rs. We realize that our every move, de-
spite the discretion with which it is made,
is closely followed by the agents of those
Powers , You, Gwynn, are the man we
have chosen to supply us with cinnabar,
as we understand that you have an un-
limited supply and because we know that
we can rely upon your confidence."
"e thank you for the honor of taking
me into your confidence " Gwyn replied,
and I can assure you that it has not been
misplaced. I appreciate, however, as
yoti must, the vastness of this task to
which you are assigning • me. • Your de-
mand alone will surpass all others that I
have been receiving in the past—it will
necessitate improvements and enlarge-
ments at the source of my supply in order.
for me to meet it, and I shall have to
cancel immediately all 'orders for the
future.
"But we shall pay you well," reminded
Jalterman.
''however," continued Gwyn firmly,
sweeping the , assemblage with his eyes,
"since we are agreed on the most import-
ant point, I can supply you with what
you require. I happen to know, gentle-
men, no matter through what channels of
information, that you cannot manufac-
ture your new explosive without cinnabar.
I believe, also, that I am the only man on
you can depend upon me absolutely, I
need not say that I shall expect the same
from you. I know I shalt receive it. "
Karl von Bleck, chief representative of
the Central Powers in the United States,
laid his newspaper An the desk before him
and delved into thought.. His secretary.
seated at a desk nearer the door, tiptoed
quietly from the room• When Von Bleck
thought, he thought of grave and import-
ant things, and his secretary knew by
precedent that he preferred to be alone.
Von Bleck, left alone, proceeded to read
again the newspaper item which had so
perturbed him. It seemed to stick from
the rows of type in words that spelled the
destruction of his nation, of his power, of
his every interest; and yet he saw towards
the last of it a ray of hope—the hope
which he must make a reality. He read:
The terrific power of the new allied
shell is marvelous, It surpasses -anything
which the Central Powers have yet dev-
eloped and promises.to be the nation's
salvation in the present conflict. This
remarkable power is due to the new ex-
plosive which has recently been invented
and, with this explosive the munitions
problem of the country will he revolution-
ized. The only drawback—which is truly
a menacing danger—is the extraordinary
small supply of cinnabar the chief ingredi-
ent of this new explosive. . . .
He:rose from his chair, laughing, though
more with scorn that mirth, and passed
through a door at his back to an adjoining
room, There, leaning over a long table,
were his associates, ready to do his bid-
ding, reading the code translation of a
cable message they had just received and

The meeting of the Grand Orange Lodge
of Ontario West in Wingham this week is
a matter of interest, not only to members
of the Order, but to the public generally.
Pursuant to adjournment, - the inquest
on the death of the late 9 J. Smith was
resumed on Monday evening last. The
interest appeared greater than ever, and
the attendance wa. much larger.
• The hardware business of the late S. J.
Smith, conducted under the firm name of
Smith & Pethick, has been sold to 'Mr.
Fishleigh of Hagarsville, who is expected
to take possession this week. While we
regret the sad event which has brought
about the necessity for a change, the Ad-

to our progressive town, and trust they
will find it a pleasant place of residence,

deciphered. They greeted their superior
with dignity and relief. His mere pres-
ence and his austere mien were comforts
to them.
Von Bleck was handed the cable, and
he read it carefully. Then he smiled
His associates knew the meaning of that
smile—they had seen it often on previous
occasions. They knew also what the
cablegram contained. Von Bleck spoke;
"The most important thing to our ene-
mies, at the present time, is the perfec-
tion and supply of their new explosive.
Therefore, naturally, the most important
thing to us, at this moment, is the destruc-
tion of this explosive; we must render it
impossible for this to be made. The easi-
est and most effective way for us do this
is to cut off the supply of cinnabar', 'which
is the chief and- scarcest ingredient used
in the explosive .It seems almost impos-
sible to obtain it. I learned but fifteen
minutes ago, through a confidential agent,
that the contract for cinnabar has been
given to a young American engineer
named Gwyn. He has been receiving
shipments of it from the West by the
Santa Fe Railroad. If we get Gwyri, and
buy him off, or get his mine, we shall have
accomplished our purpose. This cable as
you know, places at our disposal five mil-
lions of dollars to be used to this end.
Gentlemen, I am going out to locate this
engineer and offer him'more wealth than
he has ever dreamed of You shall re-
main here until 1 return or you hear from
me Good day."
