Saturday evening and Sunday, Worth Bartley. “And the rest of the time?” “Well, I think young Bartley is the favorite. He should be—a fine, man- 1y fellow, ambitious, earnest and hand- some. Not that Dodge is in any way bad. Some time ago, however, he won a prize in a foreign lottery.” “How much?"” “One thousand dollars. He has salted it away in bank, all right, but he boasts of it constantly., Brags of his luck and, mark me, with the =pec- ulative fever latent in his veins, will some day lose it just as easily as he got i Thus two nfember cle in which pretiy M of the zocial cir- ae Winston was the belle and Dartley and Dodge worthy and popular mewibers.

They secmed to have vanished com- pletely, however, leaviug no clew be- hind them. Then two evenings later a new excitement set the village all agog. Bartley uad been found wound- ed and irsensibie in a waste piece of ground about a mile from the village. \It was Saturday night, and Worth, apparently, had becn on his way from the neighboring town where he worked, bent on his regular ,visit to ever Kknow people lived near Eegan Looking About the Spot. the Winston family, when attacked. He had been struck on the head with some heavy, blunt instrument. The motive of the assault was a mystery, for although his clothing had been ransacked and torn, his money and jewelry were intact. For twenty-four hours Werth lay insensible at the home of a relative, whither he had been removed. Then a fever set in, and for over a week hp was deliricus or too weak to talk. Mae visited him several times and sent him flowers and delicacies. Mean- time, Rufus had ccme into a new ex- perience. He called at thie Winston home one day and sought a private in- terview. “I've got something very confiden- tial to tell you, Mr. Winston,” he said. The wise old farmer looked inter- ested. He was a shrewd man and selfish, and he knew that some day he would be asked to act as a father- in-law to Worth or Rufus. “I've got a chance to make $4,000,” went on Rufus, rather excitedly. “That would give me enough to marry on. Don't you think so?” “It's a pretty fine plum for a start,” encouraged Winston, “I've got a chance to get the stolen diamonds.” “Hey!" stared the farmer. “Yes. Now this is a secret. Yo see, it's only at a stage of negotid- tions, so far. A stranger came to me, one of the thieves, I am sure. He warned me to act with caution. He said that the stolen jewels had been so widely advertised by description that the thieves were afraid to offer them for sale. He has agreed to turn them over to me and have me verify them through the printed description for $1,000. I think it's a good specu- lation, don’t you?” “It's hhnobbing with thieves,” sug- gested the wily farmer. “Yes, but the owners will get back their property—no other way. And then, you see, there's $4,000 in it for me. I suppose you'd consider me fa- vorably as a suitor for Mae's hand ! with all that money?” “Ha—hum! TI'll think about it,” re- plied Winston, conservatively, PAGE THREE ( EVENING TBLMGKAM, LAK ELAND, FLA., JAN. 31, 1914, - o ————————E2PEE———————————————— S |WE ARE AGENTS for the famous, Rufus drew his thousand dollars out of bank. He was to meet the sup- posed thief four days later. Worth was up and about. The brightest spot in his experience was the knowledge that Mae had shown great anxiety and Interest concerning him during hi® {llness. When he came to put on his clothes Worth discovered his possessions all right except in omne particular—a small locket that had been attached to his watch chain, was missing. It had contained a picture of Mae. That was enough to him to give it an in- estimable value. The haze began to clear away in his mind. Dimly, at first, then more strongly memory began to develop the chain of circumstances, obscured until now since he was struck down. He was not yet strong, but he went out into the warm sunshine, walking slow- ly, bent on reaching the spot where he had been assaulted. Half the dis- tance progressed, his face brightened and his pulses stirred deeply as he saw coming towards him the woman he loved. Mae was overjoyed to seehim con- valescing, and told him so. She was solicitous as to his over-exerting him- self; learned that he was bent onm some specific mission, and insisted on acting as guard and helper. For the first time she learned from ! his lips the story of his recent mis- hap. It seemed that while nearing the spot they had now reached he had seen a light among some bushes. As Worth investigated, he observed a man take from the hollow of a dead tree a box. He opened it with a chuckle. Evidently it had been hid- den there some time before. The mo- ment Worth caught a dazzling glitter he guessed that they must be the stolen diamonds. “I don't know what possessed me,” he told his fair companion, “but some impulse made me seize the box. I ran. There were wild shouts, and the first man and two others just arrived, probably to share the hidden plunder, pursued me. Just about this rugged spot I stumbled and fell. The box flew far from my hands. The men came up, dealt me a stunning blow and— this is the spot where it all occurred.” “They probably regained the box and fled,” theorized Mae. “Probably that,” rejoined Worth, but 'he began looking about the spot ayd poking in the grass with his cane. Mae asked him wkat he was looking for. She flushed quickly when he told her that it was for the locket wrenched from his watch chain in his fall, which contained her picture. Mae aided him in his search, silent and impressed. A sudden cry from Worth brought her to his side. Grop- ing beside a big boulder, his hand had brushed back a dense grqwth otl grass and had touched—the box of jewels, where it had rolled the night of his adventure! Together they proceeded to the of- fice of the lawyer who had advertised the reward. It was to face a vast sur| prise. There, dismayed, speechless, stood Rufus. He had just brought in ‘| the jewels he had purchased from & scheming thief. “Paste,” said the lawyer—“a fair| counterfeit, even to the initials. You have been cleverly swindled, my friend.” “If T could only find that lost lock-| | et!” said Worth, as, the reward surely| his, they left the lawyer's office. “You value it so much?” murmured Mae, wistfully. He caught the expression of her face, then her hand. And Mae did not ;.ake it away until he had told hll ove, (Copyright, 1913, by W. G. Chapman.) QUALITIES OF THE ATHLETE Natural Trnlnlng That Has Done So Much for the Indian WIill Do More for the American. . Glenn Warner, the coach of the Car lisle Indian school athletes, says that the great success of the young In- dians in football and other sports is largely due to the fact that all the Indian pupils have led an out-of-door and active life before they came to the school. This is true, but it does not wholly account for the very large proportion of successful athletes among the small number of Indian students in this country. Another and important factor is the Indian psychology, which has for ages been implanting in the males of the race precisely the qualities which mlkel them good competitors in sports. The' Indian “brave” did not work. He' played, as we should say; he hunted, chased game on foot, fought his ene- mies almost constantly ingswift ex- peditions on foot or in ca ran! races, swam races, danced; and I 'll| this he accustomed himself to the en- durance of hunger and thirst, of the! severest physical tests and of unflinch- ing persistence in the attempt to overcome something or somebody. Somethlng of the early Indian spirit is needed in the development of a proper athletic spirit among our boys. The Boy Scout movement, the passion for camping and woodcraft the canoe, ‘t:: swh::hmlng pool, will make Ameri- youths of the future the grea athletes the world has ewex’g:l‘ee:.—t New York Mail. i Youngest Church Organist. Henry Alban Chambers, just ap- pointed organist of the Roman Catho- lic church of St. Ann’s, Leeds, Eng- land, is probably the youngest chnrch organist in the world. He is eleven years old, and at eight some of his compositions were published. His pow- ers of transposing and improvising are described as remarkable. The l.;lte :flrnnllt at St. Ann’s, Mr. Grim- Wedescribed him as “the Mozart.” oo St
