G THR MrHKNRY tfiAINDMUrR. McHKNRT. CMS, ru>> A Battle to Death in Darkness of Night. Synopsis -- Geoflfty Carlyle, master of sailing ships at twenty- six, is sentenced to 20 years' servitude in the American colonies for participation In the Monmouth rebellion in England. Among the passengers on board the ship on which he is sent across are Roger Fairfax, wealthy Maryland planter; his niece. Dorothy Fairfax, and Lieutenant Sanchez, a Spaniard, who became acquainted with the Fairfaxes in London. Carlyle meets Dorothy, who informs him her uncle has bought his services. Sanchez shows himself an enemy Carlyle. The Fairfax party, now on Its own sloop in the Chesapeake bay, encounters • mysterious bark, the Namur of Rotterdam. CHAPTER VII. The Lieutenant Unfaaskad. 1 Where the craft could be bound ;rot :m«o-- 'iA: what secret purpose It was afloat; who were aboard, were but so many unanswerable questions arising in my mind. Where could it have come from, unless from that strange Dutch barb? If St really carue from the Namur of Rot- , terdam had it been sent In answer to .^Die signal by Sanchez? I could think of nothing else. I determined to assure myself as to the identity of these strangers. If they had actually landed It would require only a few moments to ascertain the truth. The distance ^ . proved somewhat greater than antlclbecause of the deep curve in the . ahore and I had nearly reached the Conclusion that the boat must have rounded the point pnd gone on when suddenly I was brought to a halt by a voice speaking in Spanish--one of , those harsh croaking voices pever to , be reduced to a whisper. "Not the spot Manuel ? Of course It is; do you not suppose I know? This Is the place and now there is nothing to do but wait. The senor--he will be here presently." "Ay, unless you misread the signal.** * somewhat more discreet but piping Tolce replied doubtfully. **I saw nothv ing of all you tell about, Estada." The two men went on to discuss plans evidently communicated to Eatada by Sanchez from England. I was ' about to creep nearer, when a newfcomer moved past me scarcely a yard ^ • distant, along the narrow strip of Band. Directly opposite my covert he ' jpaused. "Estate.* He sppke the name cau- ; • tiously. . ' "Ay, captain," and another figure emerged noiselessly from the gloom, rwe await you." "Good. I rather questioned if you caught my signal. I was watched and obliged to exercise care. How many have you here?" "Four, senor, with Manuel Estevan." "Quite sufficient. How is it here? Are there suspicions?" "None, senor. We have cruised outside most of the time. There Is no warships in these waters. You said you were being watched on the sloop, •re you known?" "A dog of a servant who came over with us--one of Monmouth'B brood. i The fellow watches me like a hawk. We had some words aboard and there la hate between us." "May I ask your plans, senor?" "Yes, I am here to explain. This planter, Fairfax, has returned from England with a large sum. It is in gold and notes. It represents the proceeds of the tobacco crop of himself and a number of his neighbors. Without doubt it will be upward of fifty ------ thousand pounds.- This still remains in his possession, but a part will be dispersed tomorrow; so If we hope to gain the whole we must do so now. Everything is ready, and there is not the slightest suspicion of danger--not even a guard set over the treasure." "Then It Is at the house?" *Tn an Iron-bound chest, in the room assigned to Fairfax for the night. / Only two servants^ sleep in the main house, the cook and a maid, both women. Fairfax is vigorous and will put up a fight if be has any chance. Be must be taken care of before he does have any. Travers is an old man, to be knocked out with a blow. All we have to fear are those fellows on the sloop, and they will have to be attended to quietly without any alarm reaching the house. I am going to leave that Job to yon--it's not your test." •The old sea orders, captain?" "Ay. that will be quicker and surer." The voice hardened to sudden ferocity. "But. mark you, with one exception-- the Englishman is not to be killed, if he can be taken alive. I would deal with him." "Then after that," Sanchez went on deliberately, as though murder was of •mall account, "you will follow me up the bluff. Who are the others with you?" ••Carl Anderson, Pedro Mender and « .jOpchose." -t'Well chosen; Mendez Is the least valuable, and we will leave him with • the prisoner at the boat The big negro, Cochose, together with Manuel, attend to Travers and the two negreesee-- they sleep below. That will you and the Swede to get the if*'- - " chest. No firearms If they can bfc avoided. I have been over the house and drawn a diagram. You can look it over in the cabin of the sloop. The stairs lead up from th£ front hall. I will go with you to the door of Fairfax's room." "And you, senor--the girl?" . "What know you of any girl?"" "That there was oae on the declc of the sloop--an English beauty. It was when yoji turned to greet her that you gave me the signal. I merely thought that perhaps--" "Then stop thinking," burst forth Sanchez enraged. "Thinking has toothing to do with your work. If there is a girl I attend to her. Let that suffice. Dios! am I chief here, or are you? You have my orders; now obey them and hold your tongue. Bring the men up here." The little band of men emerged from the concealment of the fog noiselessly. I could distinguish no faces, scarcely indeed the outlines of their separate forms in the gloom, but one was an unusually big fellow--Cochose. ' "Lads," he said Incisively,'* sharper note of leadership in the tone, "it has been a bit quiet for you lately; but now I am back again, and we'll try our luck at sea once more." j < • There was a savage growl ot response, a sudden leaning forward of dark figures. "We'll begin on a Job tonight. There are fifty thousand pounds for us In that bouse yonder, and I waive my share. Estada will explain to you the work I want done. By daylight we shall be on blue water, with our course set for Porto Grande. How is it, bullies, do you 6niff at the salt sea?" "Ay, ay, captain." "And see the pretty girls watting-- and hear the chink of gold?" "Ay, senor." "Then do not fail me tonight--and remember It is to be the knife. Estada. I have forgotten one thing-- Made No Cry, No Struggle. know-lodge of the game than 1 and t> quicker movement; I excelled ta weight of body and coolness of brain.' Twice he pricked me deep enough to draw blood, before I succeeded In twlstlhg backward thefarm with which, he held the blade. He met the game too late, falling half back upon one knee, hoping thus to foil my purpose. There was the sharp crack of a bone, as his useless fingers let the knife drop, a snarled curse of pain, and then, with the rage of a mad dog, Sanchei struck his teeth deep Into my cheek. With a thrill of exultation I gripped the knife, driving instantly the keen blade to Its hilt Into the man's side. He made no cry, no struggle--the set teeth unlocked, and he fell limply back on the sand, his head lapped by the waves. The fellow lay motionless, his face upturned to the sky, but invisible except In dim outline. I rested my ear over his heart, detecting no murmur of response; touched the veins of his wrist, but found there ho answering throb of life. ' With the death-dealing knife still gripped in my hand I raced forward along the narrow strip of sand, reckless of what I might encounter. I ran oh until I reached the sloop. Through the gloom concealing the deck I could perceive only dim figures, a riot, of men, battling furiously hand to hand, yet out of the ruck loomed through the darkness In larger outlines thai the others--Cochose, the negro. I leaped at the'fellow and struck with the keen knife, missing the heart but plunging the blade deep Into the flesh of the shoulder. The next Instant I was In a bear's grip, the very breath crushed out of me, yet, by some chance, my one arm remained free, and I drove the sharp steel Into him twice before he forced the weapon from my fingers. . I thrust an elbow beneath the brute's chin, and thus forced his head back until the neck cracked. He was too strong, too immense of stature. Apparently unweakened by his wounds, the gitfht negro, thoroughly aroused, exerted his mighty muscles, and, despite my utmost effort at resistance, thrust me back against the stern rail, where the weight of his body pinned me helplessly. With a roar of rage he drove his huge fist Into my face, but happily was too close to give much force to the blow. My own bands, gripping the neckband of his coarse shirt, twisted it tight about the great throat until, In desperation, panting for breath, the huge brute actually lifted me in his arms and hurled me backward headlong over the rail. I struck something as I fell, yet rebounding from this splashed into the deep water and went down so nearly unconscious as to make not even the slightest struggle. And yet I came up once more to the surface, arising by sheer chance directly beneath the small dory--which my body, must have struck as I fell--towing by a painter astern of the sloop, and fortunately retained sense enough to cling desperately to this first thing my hands touched, and thus remained concealed. The dory caught In some current, floated at the very extremity of Its slender towline, and in consequence the sloop appeared little more than a mere smudge, when my eyeS endeavored to discover its outlines. Evidently the bloody wofk had been completed, for now all was silent on board. Then came the voice of Estada in * gruff inquiry: "So you are hiding here, Cochose? What are you looking for In the sea?" "What? Why that d d Englishman. Mon Dleul He fought me like a mad rat." "The Englishman, you say? He was here then? It was he you battled with? What became of the fellow?' "He went down there, senor. The dog stabbed me three times. It was either he or I to go." "You mean you threw him over board T' "Ay, with his ribs crushed In, and not a breath left in his d d body. He's never come up even--I've watched ANOTHER ENTRY IN THE TRANSATLANTIC AIR RACE The Vimy-Rolis machine entered by Messrs. Vlckers m the transatlantic flight contest.

'Tis better to make all safe; and now, strong arms, and good luck. Go to your task, and If one falls me It will mean the lash at the mast-butt." They moved off one by one, Estada l e a d i n g , along the narrow s t r i p o f( sand, five of them, ori their mission of . murder. The leader remained alone, his back toward where I crouched, his eyes following their vanishing figures until the night had swallowed them. and there has not been so much as ripple where he sank." . CHAPTER VIII. Too late to save Dorothy from^the hands of Sanchez' villainous crew, Carlyle sees but one desperate chance of going to her aid. Shall he take It? INNOCENTARETHESUFFERERS Regular Saturnatia of, Swindling Is Now in Progress--Publicity I* Urged as Best Remedy for fevll. 5 ^ New York.-*-The inner philosophy of the buccaneer oil promotion company in the business of selling stocks Instead of oil Is neatly exposed In a confidential" letter received the other day by a reputable New York Stock Exchange firm, says the New York Sun. The writer, an officer of a "here today and gon£ tomorrow" Western faking corporation, was trying to get a New York broker to put out its securities, and obviously thought he was addressing a firm of traders as shady as himself. "You know," he wrote, "the heavy cost Is In finding new clients. Your profit is made in selling them repeatedly the same stock as the dividend and price advance." He then offered to pay a commission of 33 1-3 per cent, under which agreement $1 of every $3 paid by the investor would stay In the hands of the stock peddler. The generous "oil" man continued: 'The price of the stock is $2 a share. It will be advanced to $2.25 within the next 30 days, after which it will be gradually raised to $3. These additional raises are the best methods known to sell stock to clients." Shares Are Valueless. The stock had no value; there was nothing behind it. The price was an arbitrary figure fixed by the company. The proposed raises would have been arbitrary. If a buyer had tried to sell the company would not have bought the stuff back at any price. The company was merely Intent on getting a broker to go shares with It In kidding the public Into snatching at the securities by "the best methods known to ffell stock to clients." Reputable brokers do not even answer such letters. Nor will they allow their customers to buy stocks which have the faintest odor of trickery if they can prevent tt The other day a man who lives In a suburb of New York jgot a hot tip on a new oil stock recently introduced on the curb but not listed. He hustled Into town and asked a broker whom he knew to buy 500 shares. "Can't do' It," said the broker. "I thought you could buy anything," said the commuter. "Certainly I £an buy anything, but I shall have to decline to take your order for this stock. I don't know anything positive about the company, but it looks bad to me because I do know something of the people who are putting It out." The ' customer departed in something of a huff, for he had "splendid Information" about the stock. Hje found another broker and purchased the 500 shares. That afternoon it "went up" nearly a point, which is a lot for a low-price^ curb security, and the suburbanite tried to take his quick profit. His new broker, however, was unable to get a bid at the new price. In fact he couldn't get any bid at all, although the curb continued to quote the high figure. The buyer of the 500 shares still had them recently and judging by the experiences of others with oil companies of the same stripe they eventually will pass to his heirs as an Interesting souvenir, unless the waste paper man gets them first. The Sun asked a man of'prominence in the New York Stock Exchange now it felt as an organization about the swindlers' saturnalia now In progress and what it could do to protect the public. , "Of course," he answered, "we are more than horrified. All the time the most pitiful cases are being reported to us--governesses, all sorts of poor persons, losing all their savings in oil 'investments.' The situation It perfectly dreadful. Outside of the suffering It Causes Individuals, what a reputation It is getting for the city df New York. People all around the country are being led to believe'twe are a nest of swindlers. The government has done something, but why it doesn't do more I don't understand. • ' "A few years ago the New York Stock Exchange put the bucketshops out of business by taking our ticker quotations away from them, an act which the courts sustained. "The New York Stock Exchange Is doltig all it can, and in co-operation with representatives of the district at torney has got action in several cases, but we have no control except over our own members. The most effective remedy for these abuses is publicity.

I arose silently to my feet, fully aware that all hope of thwarting this villainy lay in Immediate action. Sanchez had turned slightly and stood with his face toward the bay. I ventured a cautious st£p forward and stood on the open sand, scarcely a yard to his rear. Some vague sense of my presence must have influenced the man, for he swung suddenly about, uttering a stifled cry of startled surprise, as we met face to face. For an Instant we were locked so closely within each other's desperate grip, his head bent beneath my arm, with my fingers clutching at his throat to block any call for help, that h» possessed no knowledge of his assailant's identity. But the man. was like a tiger. The surprise of attack was to my advantage, yet almost before I realized what was being done he had rallied, broken my first hold, and his eyes were glaring straight into mine. Then he knew me, his free hand instantly grasping at his knife. Even as he Jerked It forth I crushed his wrist within my fingers, forcing his forearm back. There waB no outcry, no noise, except that of our heavy breathing and trampling feet Personal hatred had ascendency In both our hearts--I doubt if he ever thought of aught else but the desire to kill me there with his own hands. Only once did he even utter a word, hissing out the sentence as though It were a poison : "To bell with you, you sneaking English carl" f' What followed has to me no clearne8S, no consistency. Never have I fought with deeper realisation that I needed every ounce of strength and every trick of wit and skill.

I Holyoke, Mass., which has Ion. claimed the honor of being the birthplace of Junius Spencer Morgan, grandfather of the present J. P. Morgan, has been shorn of this fame by the town of West Springfield. This decision has been rendered by the Connecticut Valley Historical society. The explanation lies in the fact that the present city of Holyoke was formerly a part of the town of West Springfield and that, contrary to Holyoke's contention, and the assumption of the Morgan family, the site of the ancestral home of Junius Spencer Morgan Is still Included within the boundaries of West Springfield, though by a narrow margin. The present J. P. Morgan received an opportunity to perpetuate family history In West Springfield through the instrumentality of any public gift which appealed to his fancy. Though Mr. Morgan was unresponsive, the contest between Holyoke and West Springfield for birthplace honors progressed merrily and was settled only recently.
