control the debt for all the terri tory it controlled at the time of the bond issue The court says that the action is binding on Mene fee county and therefore the latteriI must make a tax levy on its

square yard varied slightly according to the amount of the work done however he said that the work done at Ashland lust year cost 194 per square yard including everything and that he didnt think it wouldcost any more ifus much in Mt Sterling- i As to the construction of brick streets Mr Bosley said first the streets are graded properly and rolleduntil a hard oval surface is formed and then six inches of cons crete is spread and allowed to set upon this a cushion of two inches of sand is spread and then the vitrified bricks are laid androlled with a heavy roller upon this a thin solution of sand andcement is poured rind washed down between the crevices lifter this sets the street is completed Mayor Samuels then read some letters from property owners of Ashlandand Huntington setting forth the advantages of brick streets One of these letters was from a gentleman who owns prop orty here and he said he would gladly pay his part if the streets were paved Messrs C C Chenault G H Strother and John W William who composed the committee that went to Ashland mid Huntington each then made a short talkon what the people of those two cities thought about their streets Mr Chenault said that the people of Ashland thought so much of paved streets that it was hard for the Council to let contracts as fast fisI the petitions for pavedstreets came in from the residents Mr W B White then explained the law governing the paving of city streets which gives the property owners the privilege of paying cash without interest within thirty days after the completion of the work or paying in yearly installments of onetenth per year with interest at six per cent Under this pmii uu hardship would be workedon any one Chairman Prewitt then took a vote on the proposition of brick for the whole

respon sibilityA minutes later Mr Grimm and hte prisoner passed out of the legation side by side and strolled down street together In amicable conversa tion Half an hour later Senor AI varez Identified Pletro Petrozlnnl a the man who shot Jilm and the maidI servant expressed a belief that he wasI the man who slammed the door in he face CHAPTER VII The Signal And the original question remaInI unanswered remarked Mr Campbell The original question repeated Mr GrimmWhere Is Prince Benedetto dAbruz zt the secret envoy his chief re- mInded him- I wonder mused the young man If the Latin compart Is signed I the TTnlted States 7 The Latin compact will not be signed In the United States Mr Grimm Interrupted And then after n moment Have we received any further reports on Miss Thorne I mean reports from our foreign Rents 1 The chief shook his head Inevitably by some act or word she will lead us to the prince declared Mr Grimm and tire moment ho Is known to us everything be come plain sailing We know she Is a sopt agent I expected a denial 1Ii s she was 0ilte frank about It And I had no Intention whatever of placing her under arrest I knew some one was In the adjoining room because of a slight noise In there and I knew she knew It She raised her voice a little obviously for the benefit of whoever was there From that point everything I said and did was to com pel that person whoever It was to show himself His chief nodded understandIngly Mr Grimm was silent for a little then went on- The last possibility In my mind at that moment he confessed was that the person I1m there was the man who shot Senor Alvarez Frankly I had half an Idea thatthat it might be the prince In person Suddenly his mood changed And now our lady of mys tery may come and go as she likes because 1 know even If a dozen of our men have ransacked Washington In vain for the prince she will Inevitably j lead us to him And that reminds me I should like to borrow Hlalr and Hastings and Johnson Please plant them so they may keep constant watch on Miss Thorne Let them report to you and wherever 1 am I will reach you over the phone By the way what was In that seal ed packet that was taken from Senor Alvarez Campbell Inquired curiously- It had something to do with some railroad franchises responded Mr Grimmi as he rose I sealed It again and returned it to time senor Evidently It was not what Signor Petrozlnnl expected to findIn fact he admitted It wasnt what he was looking for For a little while the two men gazed thoughtfully each into the eyes of the other then Mr Grimm entered his private office where he sat for an hour with his Immaculate boots on his desk thinking A worldwar he had been thrust forward by his government to prevent Itsubtle blue graY eyeshis Highness Prince Benedetto scarletf At about the moment he rose tot cq t ntMil morn closely yelled Sh WII the renezuenrn legation ana wTTTkeff rapidly down the street to a corner where without a word she entered a waiting automobile The wheels spun and the car leaped forward Fora mile or more It wound aimlessly In and out occasionally bisecting Its own path finally Miss Thorne leaned fore ward and touched the chauffeur on the arm Now she said The car straightened out Into a street of stately residences and scut tIed along until the placid bosom of the Potomac came Into view besIdes- s that for a mew minutes then over the bridge to the Virginia side In the dilapidated little city of Alexandria The car did not slacken its speed but wound In and out through dingy streets past tunible dow n negro huts for hate an hour before It came to a standstill in front of an old brick mansionThis Is number ninetyseven thee chauffeur announced Miss Thorne entered the house with a key and was gone for ten minutes perhaps She was readjusting her veil when she came out and stepped Into the car silently Again It moved forward on to the end of the dingy street and finally Into the open country Three four five miles perhaps 5out the old Baltimore Road and again the car stopped this time In front of an ancient colonial farmhouse Outwardly the place seemed to be deserted The blinds battered and stripped of paint by wind and ralii were all closed and one corner of the small veranda had crumbled away from age and neglect A narrow path strewn with pine needles led tortu ously up to the door In the rear of the house rising from an old barn a thin pole with a cuplike attachments at the apex thrust Its point Into thee open above the dense odorous pities It appeared to be a wireless mast Miss Thorno passed around the houses and entered the barn A man came forward and kissed her a thin little man of Indeterminate ofrcotton waste His face was pale with the pallor of one who knows little outdoor life his eyes deepset and aglitter with some feverish Inward fire and the thin lips were pressed togeth er in a sharp line Behind him was along bench on which were scattered tools of various sorts fantastically shaped chemical apparatus two or three electric batteries of odd sizes and ranged along one end of It In a row were a score or more metal spheroids a shade larger than a one thenrear came the clatter of a small gasoline engine and still farther away was an electric dynamo Is the test arranged Rosa the lit tie man queried eagerly In Italian The date Is not fixed yet she replied In the same language It will be I hope within the next two weeks And then Fame and fortune for both of us he Interrupted with quick enthusiasm Ah Rosa I have worked and waited so long for this and now It will come and with It the dominion of the world again by our country How will I know when the data Is fixed It would not he well to write me hero My lady of mystery stroked the slender nervous hand caressingly and R peat affection shone In the blue gray eyes At eight oclock on the night of the test she explained still speaking Italian a single light will appear at the apex of the Capitol dome in Wash Ington That is the signal agreed upon It can be seen by all in the city and is visible here from the window of your bedroom Yes yes he exclaimed The feverish glitter In hIs eyes deepened- If there Is a fog of course you will not attempt the test she went on No not in a fog he put in quick ly It must be clear And If It Is clear you can see the light In the dome without difficulty And all your plans are working out wellYes And yours I dont think there is any question but that both England and the United States will buy Do you know what It means Do you know what it means He was silent a moment his hands working nervously Then with an effort And his Highness His Highness Is safe The subtle eyes grew misty thoughtful for a moment then cleared again He Is safe she repeated Mexico and VnnnyiiPila wnr T hl1 beganWe dont know yet what they willI do The Venezuelan answer is locked in the safe at the legation I will know what it is within fortyeight hours She was silent a little Our difficulty now our greatest difficulty is the hostility of the French ambassador to the compact His govern ment has not yet notified him of the presence of Prince dAbruzzl he does not believe in the feasibility of the plan and we have toto proceed to extremes to prevent him working against us But they must see the incalculable advantages to follow upon such a com tQt I1 thc vast pQg rL t1WNlll- y With That We Control the World Exclaimed the Man Triumphantly oe raven to tnem ovei ire wnote carta by this He Indicated the long 1 tered worktable They must see It They will see It LuIgI said Miss Thorne gently And now how ar you Are you well Are you com fortable Its such a dreary old place hereI suppose so he replied and he- met the solicitous bluegray eyes for an instant Yes I am quite comfortable he added I have no time to be otherwise with all the work I must do It will mean so much They were both silent for a time Finally Miss Thorns walked over to the long table and curiously lifted on of the spherlods It was a sinister looking thing nickeled glittering A one end of It was a delicate vibratory apparatus not unlike the transmitter of a telephone and the other end was threaded as If the spheroid was r d- as an attachment to some other de viceWith that we control the world exclaimed the man triumphantly And Its mine Rosa mine Its wonderful she mused softly Wonderful And now I must go I may not see you again until after the test because I shall be watched and followed wherever I go If I get an opportunity I shall reach you by tele phone but not even that unless It Is necessary There Is always danger always danger she repeated thoughtfully She was thinking ofMr Grimm- I understand said the man sim ply And look out for the signalthe light In the apex of the capitol dome she went on I understand the night must he perfectly clear and you understand that the test Is to be made promptly at three oclock by your chronometerAt oclock he repeated For n moment they stood with their arms around each other then tenderly his visitor kissed him and went out He remained looking after her vacantly until the chugchug of her automobile as It moved off down the road was lost In the distance then turned again to the long worktable CHAPTER VIII Miss Thorne and Not Miss Thorne From a pleasant wideopen baywin dow of her apartments on the second floor Miss Thorne looked out upon the avenue with Inscrutable eyes Be hind the closely drawn shutters of an other baywindow farther down the avenue on the corner she knew a man named Hastings was hiding she knew that for an hour or more he had been watching her as she wrote In the other direction In a house near the corner another man named Blair was similarly ensconced and he too had been watching as she wrote There shouldl be a third man Johnson Miss Thorne curiously studied the face of ash passerby seeking therein some ihlng to remember She sat at the little mahogany desk and a note with the Ink yet wet upon It lay face up before her It was ad dressed to Signor PIetro Petrozinnl In the district prison and read My Dear Friend- I have been waiting to write you with the hope that I could report Senor Alvarez out of danger but his condition I regret to say remains un changed Shall I send an attorney to you Would you like a book of any kind Or some delicacy sent in from a restaurant Can I be of any service to you In any way If I can please drop me a lineSincerely SincerelyISABEL THORNE At last she rose and standing In the window read the note over folded it placed it in an envelope and sealed it A maid came in answer to her ring and there at the window under the watchful eyes of Blair and Hastings and perhaps Johnson she handed the note to the maid with Instructions to mall It Immediately Two minutes later she saw the maid go out along the avenue to a postbox on the cor nerThen she drew back Into the shadow of the room slipped on a darkcol ored wrap and standing away from the window safe beyond the reach of prying cyss wafted patiently fur the postman He appeared about five oclock and simultaneously another man turned the corner near the post box and spoke to him Then together they disappeared from view around the cornerSo Johnson is 1t1 mused Miss Thorne and she smiled a little Mr Grimm certainly pays me the compliment of having me carefully watchedA minutes later she dropped into the seat at the desk again The dark wrap had been thrown aside and Hastings and Blair from their hiding places could see her distinctly After awhilE they saw her rise quickly as 9H antes bile tiirniwt4ntn the avenue e- I iM TUb toward the window eagerly standtillCadwallader an undersecretary of the British embassy who was alone In the car raised his cap She nodded and smiled then disappeared in the shadows of the room again Mr Cadwallader went to the door spoke to the servant there then re turned and busted himself about the car Hastings and Blair watched In tently both the door and the window for a long time finally a closely veil ed and muffled figure appeared at the naywindow and waved a gloved hand at Mr Cadwallader who agaIn lifted his cap A minute later the veiled woman carne out of the front door shook hands with Mr Cadwallader and got in the car He also climbed In and the car moved slowly away Simultaneously the front door of the house on the corner where Hastings had been hiding and the front door of the house near the corner where Blair had been hiding opened and two heads peered oat As the car approach withdrewtInto the hallway but Blair came out and hurried past the legation in the disappearingemotor Hastings joined him they spoke together then turned the cor nerrIt was about ten oclock that night when Hastings reported to Mr Camp bell at his home We followed the car Ina rented automobile from the time It turned the corner out through Alexandria and along the old Baltimore Road into the city of Baltimore he explained reachedeAlexandria but we stuck to the car untiltwe came In sight of Druid Hill Park and then we had to show lights or be held up We covered those forty hourseAfter the car passed Druid Hill It slowed up a little and ran off the turnpike Into North Avenue then Into North Charles Street and slowly along that as If they were looking for a number At last It stopped and Mss Thorne got out and entered a house She was gone for more than half an hour leaving Mr Cadwallader with the car While she was gone I made some Inquiries and learned that the house was occupied by a Mr Thomas Q GrIswold I dont know anything else about him Blair may have learned something Now comes the curious part of It and Hastings looked a little sheepish When Miss Thorne came out of the house she was not Miss Thorne at all she was Senorita Inez Rodriguez daughter of the Venezuelan minister She wore the same clothing Miss Thorne had worn going but her veil was lifted Veiled and all muffled up one would have taken oath It was the same woman She and Cadwallader are back In Washington now or are coming Thats all except Blair Is still in Baltimore awaiting orders I caught the train from the Charles Street station and came back John son you know Yes Ive seen Johnson Inter rupted Campbell Are you absolutely positive that the woman you saw get Into the automobile with Mr Cadwal lader was Miss Thorne Absolutely replied Hastings with out hesitation I saw her In her own room with her wraps on then saw her come down and get Into the car Thats all said the chief Good night For an hour or more he sat In a great comfortable chair In time amok ngroom of his own home the guile less blue eyes vacant staring and spidery lines In the benevolent forehead On the morning of the second day following Senor Rodriguez the min 1 Ister front Venezuela reported to the Secret Service Bureau the disappear ance of fiftythousand dollars In gold from a safe In his private office at the legation CHAPTER IX Fifty Thousand Dollars Mr Campbell was talking For several months past he said the International Investment Com pany through its representative Mr Cressy has been secretly negotiating with Senor Rodriguez for certain as phalt properties In Venezuela Three days ago these negotiations were suc cessfully concluded and yesterday aft ernoon Mr Cressy In secret paid to Senor Rodriguez fifty thousand dot lars in American gold the first of four payments of similar sums This gold was to have been shipped to Philadelphia by express today to catch a steamer for Venezuela Mr Grimm nodded The fact that this gold was In Senor Rodlguezs possession could not have been known to more than half a dozen persons as the negotiations 1 throughout have been in strict se crecy and Mr Campbell smiled be nignly So much Now Senor Rod riguez ho3 just telephoned asking that j I send a man to the legation at once The gold was kept there over night or perhaps I should say that the senor intended toLoo it there ever nhtIMr Campbell stared at Mr Grimm for a moment then Miss Thome you know Is a guest at the legation that Is why I am referring the matter to you i I understand said Mr Grimm And ten minutes later Mr Grimm presented himself to Senor Rodriguez The minister from Venezuela bub bling with excitement was pacing forth and back across his office ruf fling his grayblack hair with nervous twining fingers Mr Grimm sat down Senor he inquired placidly fifty thousand dollars In gold would welgbI nearly two hundred pounds wouldnt IU Senor Rodrlguei stared at him 1 l M blanklY SitSenorhe agreed absently And then In English Yes I should Im agine so- Well was all of it stolen or only apart of It Mr Grimm went on The minister gazed into the listless eyes for a time then apparently be wildered walked forth and back across the room again Finally he sat downAll of tthe admitted I cant uni derstandit No one not a soul in this house except myself knew It was hereIn saytwodollars would make considerable bulk mused Mr Grimm Very well f1 Therefore it would appear that the person or persons who got it must have gone away from here heavily ladenSenor Rodriguez nodded And now Senor Mr Grimm coni tinued if you will kindly state the circumstances immediately preceding and following the theft A slight frown which had been growing upon the smooth brow of th diplomatist was Instantly dissipated The money fifty thousand dollars in gold coInwas paid to me yesterday afternoon about four oclock he began slowly In explanation By Mr Cressy of the International Investment Company supplemented Mr Grimm Yes Go on The diplomatist favored the young man with one sharp Inquiring glance and continued The gentleman who paid the money remained here from four until nine oclock while I personally counted It As I counted It I placed it in canvas bags and when he had gone I took these bags from this room Into that he Indicated a closed door to his right and personally stowed them away iIn the safe I closed and locked the door of the safe myself I know that it was locked And thats all except this morning tho money was gone every dollar of It Safe blown Inquired Mr Grimm No Senor exclaimed the diplo matist with sudden violence No theJ t No One Not a Soul In This House Except Myself Knew It Was Here safe was not blown It was closed and locked exactly as I had left itI Mr Grimm was Idly twisting the seal ring on his little finger Just as I left Itl Senor Rodriguez repeated excitedly Last night after I locked the safe door I tried It to make certain that It was locked I 1 happened to notice then that the pointer on the dial had stopped pre cisely at number fortyfive This morning when I unlocked the sateand of course I didnt know then that tho money had been takenthe pointer was still at number fortyfive- He paused with one hand In theair Mr Grimm continued to twist the seal ringIt was all like like some trick on the stage the minister went on like the magicians disappearing lady ororII It was as though I had not put the money Into the safe at all Did you Inquired Mr Grimm ami ablyDid 17 blazed Senor Rodriguez Why SenorII I did he concluded meeklyMr Grimm believed him Who else knows the combination of the safe he queried No one Senornot a living soul Your secretaty for Instance Not even my secretary Some servant seme member of your family- I tell you Senor not one person IIn all the world knew that

profits in spite of recent market declines There is less uncertainty felt about the course of the hog mar ket than concerning any other class of meatproducing animals The caprices of cattle and sheep i feeders and the ease with which thejextenthave wrought great havoc this season In some respects the hosr business is more stable There is small temptation to curry hosrs along in thin flesh after they arc growthy en ugh for finishing because their maintenance in winter calls for considerable grain The I limitation of hog feeding mainlv to the Inrms where they are pro duced also restrains the tendency to speculate in their finishing The hog crop conies forward mostly at 18 months oldand directly ropr sents the breeders crop of corn The unfortunate combination in 1907 of a small corn crop a slight lv more than normal increase in hogs and a financial panic just at the time when the bulk of the hogs were ready for marketing caused a selling panic among those swine growes who could lea afford to suffer The history the diastrous clean up of sows and light shoats in the winter and spring of 19078 shows that those who failed to keep informed of nilI the circumstances affecting the market were the men who lost courage and damnedall the breeding stock overboard an thus intensified the price decline It was mainly the renters and oth 1ers following no settledsystem of soilconservation who jumped at the conclusion that the hog had outgrown the mortgagepaying qualities which had endeared himI- I to American corngrowers Succeeding events show how slowlyI such mistakes are corrected A decrease in two years of ago r 15 per cent in the number of hogs in this country put the price of breading stock beyond the reach of those who still nurtured the distrust of hogs According the most careful estimate so far reported it is thought that t stockof hogs in this country i leer creased last veal only about 3 p cent Meanwhile the farmers who followed the sensible reasoning that the time to retain breeding stock is when everyone else wants to sell it have reaped a merited reward for their wisdom They not onlyI escaped the loss which would have accompanied the for ing of their herds on the harketII during the glut but they hada surplus of normal size to sell when scarcity developed Many ills come from impure blood Cant have pure blood with faulty digestion

quarters If you fire trying to produce large numbers better use the colony method Flocks of say fifty birds at different places on the farm are far better than a large number with only one roost iing place fExtVmine your hens for lice and mites even in cold weather They often stick closer to the fowl and suck more blood then than the i same number would in warm 4 4weather Go over them with some good lice powder giving them a thorough dusting It will lpay for the trouble and time in health and increased egg produc tion On severely cold weather it pays to warm the water for the laying liens Nothing checks the egg supply so SUlcland quickly ns rot the hens to be compelled to driuk ice water when the weather is already cold enough to pinch their vitality severely Our plan used to be to put warm water into the vessels three times a day in coldweather and we found it Avould pay well for all the trouble in holding up the egg supply- It pays to keep a supply of grit oyster shells and

up a great deal of food which the grit helps to do The oyster shell furnishes lime for the eggshell while the charcoal isI good as an assistant to digestion and as bowelcorrective During the winter if the fowls are canfined the tendency is to overfeed with grains and under feed with vegetable foods which are fullus necessary for the fowls For this purpose nothing is superior to alfalfa leaves either ehai steamed So is it that eastern poultrymen are paying as high as SG5 a ton for cut alfalfa which is not as rood as the loaves as all the hay is used in snaking it Any of the root crops sugar

At intervals a drove of fat steers bred and fed in that section is marketed and at periods when feeders dependent on the stocker trade for material complain of loss These some what infrequent demol1st Ill I ion that breeding is profitable lit c peculiar interest when beef makers losses are attributable wholly to the high cost of stocker cattle An instance was recorded in Chi cngo when W A Wcstover of Montgomery county la mark eted four lanelof lHereford steers averaging 1515 pounds at 090 per cwt the top of the session They were mostly throe and tour yearolds some UIebledfind other grades and the feeder who speaks with all the authority war ranted by 13 years experience said that his process was immeas urably superior to that of buying stockers Montgomery county is in the southwestern part of Iowa If beef can be profitably made there from breeding to fattening it is possible elsewhere in the corn belt The producer of these cat tle figures that when out on part feed last August at an average weight of 1032 pounds the actual cost not to exceed S1 per cwt or around 40 per head Cattle of the same weight and quality couldnot have been bought on the market at G per cwt at that time and would have been diflicult to get im any event This gave the breeder an advantage of fully 2 per cwt over the purchaser on the open market at the outset The cattle were fed 33 to 35cent corn and made an average gain of nearly four pounds per clay from the time thoy went on full feed November 15 They gained stead ily being subject to none of the shrink inseparable front going through the stocker market In the finishing process corn consumption was about GO bushels per heada further demonstration that the operation was profitable It will be asked why they wereI not beefed in the yearling stage Mr Westover says that plan would be more profitable if he handled only a load or so each season but as he uses 1100 acres mostly in grass and is compelled I to depend on hired help expe rience has taught him that mark eting matured cattle is best under his conditions Producers of in dividual loads annuallyie could achieve maximum results with yearlingsThese Iowa cattle wore not ba bied They were given a short gratin ration after weatling but two thirds of their weight was ac cumulated on grass To corect the impression that beef cattle cannot be profitably producedon highpriced land it is necessarily merely to secure the testimony of those who are doing itsAnd Mr Westovers prediction is the in dustry is on the eve of expansion Already breeding herds are being founded in his county by

exempt an1no newspapers will be affected Under the new bill sixteen periodicals will be enabled to carry advertising for the first time The communication in full follows From an analysis of the sev entysix periodicals other than newspuuers journals and the like jpublished in Kentucky and ad- mittedi to the mails as second class matter with the privilege of car vying advertisements it appears that not one will be directed by the section of the pending postal bill providing for increased post age on the advertising pages of magazines The limber rate does not np ply to newspapers of slay kind in eluding farm journals find similar publications that print current in formation of news value nor does it affect periodicals that mail less than 4000 pounds at each issue- siu happens to be the case with every one of the seventysix Ken tucky periodicals now carrying advertisements On the other hand the proposed legislation will grant for the first time to sixteen periodicals published in Kentucky the right to cany advertisements These sixteen periodicals a list of which follows frill into the category of periodicals admitted to the second class without the advertising privi lege under the act of July 11G 1894 and comprising the publica tions of incorporated institutions learning of fraternal scientific and professional societies etc dsAs these sixteen periodicals all 1Illnit less
