(Copyright, 1895, by Trving Bacheller.) CHAPTER 1. The telegraph messenger looked again at the address on the envelope in his hand and then scanned the house before which he was standing. It was an old-fashioned bullding of brick, two stories high, with an attic above; and it stood in an oll-fashioned part of lower New York not far from the Bast river. Over the wile archway there was a small and weather-worn sign, “Ramapo Steel and Iron Works," and over the smaller dobr alorgside was a still smaller sign, “Whittier, Wheateroft & Co." When the messenger boy had made out the name he opened this smailer door and en- ter:d the long, narrow store. Tts sides and walls were covered with bins and racks contalning sampie steel rails and iron beams and colls of wire of various sizes. Down at the end of the stere were desks, where several clerks and bookkeepers were at work As the messenger drew near a red- headed office boy blocked the passage, say- ing, somewhat aggressively, “Well?"” “Got a telegram for Whittier, Wheatcroft & Co." the messenger explained, pugna- clously, thrusting himself forward. “In there!" the office boy returned, jerking his thumb over his shoulder toward the ex- treme end of the bullding, an extension [RamaPo STEEL IRON WORKS: || The telegraph mesferighr looked again at the Addrens. roofed with glass ;i separated by a glass screen from the paceywhere the clerks were at_work.

All through the four years that followed the firing on the flag In 1861 the Ramapo works had been run day and night. When peace came at last, and the people had again leisure to expand, a large sharo of the rails needed by the new over- land roads, which were to bind the east and the west together in iron bands, had been rolled by Whittier, Wheateroft & Co. Of late years, as Paul knew, the old firm seemed to have lost scme of its cariy energy, and having young and vigorous competitors, it had bavely held its own. That the Ramapo works should once more take the lead was Paul Whittier's sclemn purpose; and to this end he had been care- | tully trained. He wag now a young man of nearly tall, handsome fellow, with a full moustache over his firm mouth, and with quick eyes balow his curly brown ha'r. He had spent four years in college, carrying oft | honers in mathemat'cs; he was pipulir with | his classmates, who made him cliss poet; and in his senior years he was elected presi- dent of the college photographic soxle'y. He had gone to a technologleal institute, where ho had made himtelf master of the theory and practice of metallurgy. Afier a year of travel in Burope, where he had investigatel every important steel and lron works he could get into, he had come home to take a desk in the offica, It was only for a moment that he sto-d on the sidewalk opposite, looking at the o'd build'ng. Then he threw away his cigaretts and went over. Instcad-of entering the long store, he walked down the al'ey-way left op:n for the heavy wagons. When he came oppo site the private office in the rear of the sicre he examined the doors and the windows care- fully to ses if he could det:ct any means of ingress other than those open to every- body. As Paul entered the private office he found the porter there putting coal on the fire. Stepping back to close the glass door be- hind him, that they might bo alone, he said: “Mike, who shuts up the office at night?" “Sure 1 do, Mister Paul,” was the prompt answer. “And do you open it In the morning?" young man asked. “I do that,” Mike responded “Do you sce that these windows are always ened on the inside?” was the next query Yes, Mister Paul,” the porter replied. “Well,” and the Inquirer hesitated briefly before putting the guestion, “‘have you found any one of thess windows unfastencd any morning lately when you came here?” “And how did you know tuat?”’ Mike re- turned in surprise. “What morning was 1t?" asked Paul, push- ing his vantage. “It was last Monday mornin’, Mister Paul,” the porter explained, “an how it was I dunno, for T had every wan o the windows tight Sat- urday night—an' Monday mornin’ wan o' theri was unfastened whin I wint to open It to let a bit o air into the office here. You sleep here always, don’t you?' Paul proceeded. “I've slep’ here fviry night for thres year now come Thanksgivin',”” Mike replied. *‘I've ha | the whole tep o' the house to myself. It's an be | illigant apartment I have there, Mister Paul.” n't| When Mike had left the office Paul took a wo | chair before the fire and lighted a cigar. For rs. | half an hour he sat silently thinking. oth | He came to the conc usion that Mr. Wheat- Of | croft was right fn his suspicion. Whittler, na- | Wheatereft & Co. had lost important con- tracts because of underbidding due to knowl- cdge surreptitionsly obtained. He beiieved that some one had got into the store on Sun- ay while Mike was taking a walk, and that this somebody had somehow opened the safe. There was never any money in that private safe; It was intended to contaln only im- portant papers. It did contaln the letter-book of the firm's bids, and this Is what was wanted by the man who had got Into the of- fice, and who had et himself out by the win- dow, leaving it unfastened behind him, What grieved him whon he had c'ma to this conclusion was that tho thief-~for such the housebreaker was in redlity—wis prob. ably one of the men in the employ of tho firm. It scemed to him almost cortain that the man who had broksn In kiew all the ins and outs of the office. And how éould this knowledge have been obtained except by an employe? Paul was well acquiint:d with the clerks in the outer office. There were fivé of them, Including the old brok- keeper, and although none of them Lad been with the firm as long as the major, no on» of them had been there less than ten years. While Paul was sitting quiet'y in the pri vate office smoking a cigar, with all his men- tal faculties at the'r highe:t tension, the cleek in the.corner suddenly struck 3. « Paul swiitly swung around in his chair and looked af it. An old eight-diy clock it was, which not only told the time of day, but preténded also to supply miscellancous astroromical informaticn. It stood by itself in the torner. t-| For a moment after it struck Paul staral at it with a fixed gaze, as though he did not see what he was Jooking at. Then a I'ght came into his eyes and a smile flitted a-ross his 1'ps. e turned around in his cheir slowly and measured with his eyes the properiions of th Tom. |the. distance betwesn e desks and the safe and the clock. He glanced up at the sloping glass roof above him. Then e smilel again, and again sat silent for a minute. He rose to his feet and stood with his back to the fire. Al- most in front of him was the clock in the corner. He took out his watch and compared ils time with that of the clock. Apparently he found that the clock was too fast, for he walked over to It and turnerd the minute hand back. It seemed as though this was a more Qificult feat than he supposed, or that he went about it carelessly, for the minute hand broke oft short in his fingers. A spasmodic movement of his as the thin metal snapped pulled the chain off its cylinder and the ap- 0 ust 25—n not uts las lel fer, niy his the od, fa we ria oel ere for an ast in ow hu- to o the er. fa ant ot all re- of all He Iy e vas nk n't do air or the in- “p Arp at's ere his h to ndt res fes no g0 aid his of of im hat “'Mike, who shuts up the office at night?" weight fell with a clash All the clerks looked up, and the red-headed office hoy was prompt in answer to the bell Paul rang a moment after. “Bobby,” said the young man to the boy as he took his hat and overcoat, “I've just broken the clock: I know a shop where they make a specialty of repairing timepleces like that.

Paul,” cried the junior partner explosively, “I've been thinking about that—about that you know what I mean! And I've decided that we had better put a detective on this thing at once.” Yes, said Paul, “that's a good idea. In fact, I had just come to the sume conclusion. bt Then he checked himself. He had turned slightly to speak to Mr. Wheatcroft, and now he saw that Mafor Van Zandt was standing within ten feet of them. and he noticed that the old bookkecper's face was strangely pale.

Five minutes later Mr. Whittier, Mr, Whe croft and the only son of the senior part left the glass-framed private office and, wa ing lelsurely through the long store, pas: into the street.

Ranter Scott was to havs orated Thurse day night at & meeting of Third Ward Colored Republican at Fourteenth and Dodgo streets, but he didn't. It was not the judge's fault, because he is always cocked and primed to go Off at a moment's notice with one of his inimitable tirades. While ho Is always ready, he wants some one to listen. That was where the trouble lay that night. Broatch and Scott concocted the plan of addressing the Third ward voters at 8 o'clock, and about fifteen minutes before the time set for the meeting they met in the heart of the clty and, locking arms, marched bravely down the street to the hall. On the way they met George Helmrod and John T. Dailey. The four proceeded on their way until the place of meeting was reached and then they marched two abreast up the stairs and Into the little hall on the second floor. Scott and Broateh stalked up the aisle with their heads high in the air until the plats forin wos reached. — Scott carefully deposited himsel? In the highest chair and then pulled down his head, while a sweet smile played over his features. The sight that met his gaze suddenly caused this smile to chase it= self_and the threatening frown, with which he has pliyed many star parts heretofore, took its piace. He looked for fully two minutes, rubbed his eyes to see if the vision would vanigh and then turned his gaze upon Broatch, who had taken position on his right hand. Broatch was leoking at Scott and his soul was in his own eyes. Heimrod and Dalley had taken two seats in the pit and were not saying a word. The striking tableau was occasioned by the crowded appearance of the room. The audis ence was twenty rows deep and a full dozen wide, just as close together as they could be placed. But the members of this audience were chairs, and not a man, woman or child occu= pied any of them, although there was a water cooler in the corner of the room. The four politicians talked about ~the weather and about the fair, but no one said any(hing abeut a speech. ~ The janitor en- tered and remarked that if more chairs wers needed he would get them, but his remark was not well received and he retreated in good order. Finally Scott was induced to give a little moral epitome upon the subject of purity in politics. Before he had got well under way Ciaus rlubbard, president of the Third Ward Colored Republican club, rushed up the stairs and into the hall with a book under his aim. He greeted the four men very cordially, but the warmness of the greeting fell flat. SCOTT ASKS A QUESTION. “Where is the meeting I am to addreist asked Scott. +Oh, that will be all right,"” answered Hube bard. “‘We are all laboring men, you know, and 1 guess some of us have forgot to comes 1 told them sbo:t it, but that will be all r'git, T'll go right aiter them and bring them iers,” and Hubbard shed his hat and coat (o stow that he was acting in good faith and then made his escape. He rushed down stairs and into a saioon cn the opposite corner and after hunt'ng about some fifteen minutes he dug up Henry Tal bot, a colored ward politiclan who is ufiep the stuff. He toll Talbot to go to the halk which he sald was crowded, and then Hubde bard hunted for more voters. Taibot arrivel at the building. “‘Where Is the meeting?” he asked the only. attendant, a reporter. “Claus to'd me they wore all here. “They are all here. Tnxat s, Judge S:-ott is here,” was the answer, and Henry went like a shot up the stairs #nd nto the hall. “Howdy, jedge. How are you?"' lLienry, asked suavely. “Where 15 my meeting? Where is ‘he Third Ward club that I am to address?” des manded the judge. “Ain’'t they here?” asked Henry, as ha jooked about in feigned surprice. *“Clwus told me they were all up here. But that will by all right. 'l go out and hunt them 1p. You just stay here a little while and I'll fetch them.” Henry left, but he never came back. Judge Scott waited several minutes. He didn’t say much, but he thought a pia. Then he sald he guessed he wouldn’t make a spse h to empty chalrs, not if he knew himsef. Ho was going down to the First ward, whers he could always get a crowd anl woulln't walt any more. Plcking up his bat, he walied out, HUBBARD SHOWS GENIUS, But Judge Scott missed an o7portuiity. Meanwhile Hubbard had heard a fife paying on Twelfth and Cass strocts. He went down thero to investigate and found a great crowd of colored people listening to ihe musie. A big scheme entered his head. He took the fifer and the two drummers aslde and by the offer of a beer each inducad them to march up the street to the meeting hall. The scheme workel like a charm. A eciowd of twenty-five followed. When the hall was reached, by the indusament of tnother be-r, Hubbard succeeded in geiting the players to march up stairs and the mea and b.ys fol- lowed like so many sheep. Hubbird proudly isplayed them to Broatch, who had waltad because he wanted to make a sp-ech and was going to make one If he had to stay all night. “The meeting w!ll come 10 order and 15 on to speeches,” announced President Hubbarl, who introduced Broatch. Droatch remarked that be did not have much to say, which was true, but notwith- standing that he consumed a considerabla amount of time In doing it. He expressed the opinion that there were many liars in the city, yet he did not want to roast them because he was no good at it. He had come with the cxpectation of hearing Judge Scoit, who was a corker at that kind of business, but as Scott would not talk, he would do the best he could. He did so, and also regaled the audience with several anecdotes in which he showed what good fellows colored people were. Heimrod and Dailey also made speeches, but said little more than to announce them selves as candidetes. RBeech Higby dropped in and did_the same thing. Three colored men, J. L. Davis, G. F. Franklin and a man named Williams, also spoke. Thelr remarks were not very cheering to the guests of the evening, as they said that the colored people of tho city were getting tired of recciving only promises from candidates, NE 1 FoR S WOMEN.
