windows you know Mr Grimm went on then As I un derstand It Monsieur no one except you and the saw the ambassador after ten oclock In tho morning Out Mousier Ceat Monsieur Rlgolot began excitedly I beg par don 1 believe that Is correct You saw him about ten you say therefore no one except the stenog rapher saw him after ten oclock That Is also true as far as I know Any callers Letters Telegrams Telephone messages- I made Inquiries In that direction Monsieur was the reply I have the words of the servants at the door and of the stenographer that there were no callers and the statement of the stenographer that there were no telephone calls or telegrams There were only four letters for him per sonally He left them all on his deskhere they are Mr Grimm looked them over leisure ly They were enough containing nothing that might be con 1 strued Into a reason for the disap Monsieur Boissegur had dictated were laid on his desk by the stenographer Monsieur KIgolot rushed on volubly excitedly In the anxiety and uneasiness following the disappearance they were allowed to remain there overnight On Wednesday morning Monsieur and he hesitated Impressively those letters bore his signature In his own Grimm turned his listless eyes full upon Monsieur Rlgolots perturbed face for one scant instant No doubt of It being his signature he queried Non Monsieur non the secretary exclaimed emphatically Vous avez that Is I have known his signature for years There is no doubt The letters were not of a private nature If you would care to look at the copies of themHe offered the duplicates tentatively Mr Grimm read them over slowly the while Monsieur Rlgolot sat nerv ously staring at him They too veemed meaningless as bearing on the icatter in hand Finally Mr Grimm nodded and Monsieur Rlgolot re Wednesday night Monsieur iiiiother strange thing happened Monsler Boissegur smokes many ciga rettes of a kind made especially for him In France and shipped to him here He keeps them In a case on his dressing table On Thursday morning his valet reported to me that this case of cigarettes had disappeared Of course observed Mr Grimm Monsieur Ilolssegur baa a latchkey to the embassy Of course Anything unusual happen last r night that Is Thursday night Nothing Monsieurthat is noth ing we can find Mr Grimm sat silent for a time and fell to twisting the seal ring on his finger Mr Campbell turned around and moved a paper weight one Inch to the left where It belonged while Monsieur Rigolot disappointed at their amazing apathy squirmed uneasily In his chair It would appear then Mr Grimm remarked musingly that after his mysterious the ambassador has either twice returned to his house at night or else sent some one there first to bring the letters to him for signature and later to get his cigarettes Cwtahipmcnt Monsieur I mean that seems to he true lint where Is he Why should he not come back What dots It mean Madame Ilolsse gur Is frantic prostrated She wanted me to go to Ithe police but I did not think It wise that it should become public bo I came here Very well commented Mr Grimm Lot it rest as It Is Meanwhile you may reassure madame Point out to her that if Monsieur Bolssogur signed the letters Tuesday night he was at least alive and if he came or sent for the cigarettes Wednesday night he was still alive I shall call at the embassy this afternoon No It isnt advisable to go with you now Give 110 your latchkey please Vonstcur Hlgolot produced the key find passed It over without a word And one other thing Mr Grimm continued please collect all the re volvers that may be in the house and iike charge of them yourself If anyone by chance heard a burglar prowl ins around there tonight he might shoot and In that event either kill Monsieur Bolssrgur oror me When the secretary had gone Mr Campbell Idly drummed on his desk us he Htmiied the iace of his subor dinateSo much he commented finally Its Miss Thome again said the young man as if answering a question Perhaps these reports I have received today from the Latin capitals may aid you In dispelling that mys tery Campbell suggested and Mr Grimm turned them over eagerly Meanwhile our royal

arc light filtered through the halfdrawn velvet hangings and laid a faintly Il lumined path across the ambassadors desk the heavy leather chairs were mere Impalpable splotches in the shadows the cutglass knobs of a mahogany cabinet caught the glint of light and rfftpltplI It dimly Outside was the vague Indefinable night drone of a city asleep unbroken by any sound that was distinguishable until finally there came the distant boom of a clock It struck twice Seated on a couch in one corner of the ambassadors office was Mr Grimm He was leaning against the high arm of leather with his feet oc tho seat thoughtfully nursing his knees If his attitude indicated anything except sheer comfort It was that he was listening He had been there for two hours wideawake and absolutely motionless Five ten fifteen minutes more passed and then Mr Grimm heard the grind and whir of an automobile a bjock or so away coming toward the embassy Now It was In front Honk Honononk It called plaintively Honononk Honk The signal At last The automo bile went rushing on full tilt while Mr Grimm removed his feet from the seat and dropped them noiselessly to the floor Thus with his hands on his knees and listening listening with every faculty strained he sat motion less peering toward the open door that led Into the hall The car was gone now the sound of It swallowed up In the distance still he sat there It was obviously some noise In the house for which he was waiting Minute after minute passed and still nothing There was not even the tier Hand Still Rested on the Switch whisper of a windstirred drapery He was about to rise when suddenly with no other noise than that of tin sharp click of tho switch the electric lights In the room bltlzed up lly The glare dazzled Mr Grimm wit Its blinding flood but he didnt move Then softly almost In a whisper Good evening Mr Grimm- It was a womans voice pleasant unsurprised perfectly modulated Mr Grimm certainly did not expect II now but he knew It Instantlythere was not another quite like It in the wide wide world and though he was still blinking a little he came to his feet courteously Good morning Mss Thome lit corrected gravely Now his vision was clearing and he saw her a gracefull figure silhouetted against the rich green of the wall draperies Her lips were curled the least bit ae if she might have been smiling and her wonderful eyes re fleeted a glint otofwas it amuse Brent Tho folds of her evening dress foil away from her and one bare white arm was extended as her hand still rested on the switch And you didnt hear me still In the half whlsper I didnt think you would Now Im going to put out the lights for an Instant while you pull the shades down and thenthen we must have aa conference The switch snapped The lights died as suddenly as they had been born and Mr Grimm moving noise lessly visited each of the four win dows In turn Then the lights blazed brilliantly again Just for a moment Miss Theme explained to him quietly and she handed him a sheet of paper I want you to read thisread It carefully then I shall turn out the lights again They are dangerous After that we may discuss the matter at our leis ureMr Grimm read the paper while Mss Thornes eyes questioned his Im passive face At length he looked up indolently listlessly and the twitch snapped She crossed the room and sat down Mr Grimm sat beside her i UUUM mm nunie BUEBCOIO tentatively that that accounts perfectly for Monsieur Bolssegurg disap pearanceIt one explanation at least Mr Grimm assented musingly Kid napped held prisoner fifty thousand dollars demanded for his safety and rpVase A pause And to whom may I ask was this demand ad oitFsod To Madame Boissegur replied Miss Thome 1 have the envelope In which It came It was mailed at the I general post office at haltpast one oclock this afternoon so the canceling stamp shows and the envelope was addressed nw the letter was writ ten on a tvnewrlter Ann flOW inquired Mr Urfmm fter a long pause how did It come Into your possession 1 He waited a little Why didnt Monsieur Rlgolot dart this development to me this afternoon when I was here Monsieur Rigolot did not Inform you of it because he did not know oft himself she replied answering the last question first It came Into my possession directly from the hands st Madame Boissegurshe gave It to me WhyMr was peering through the Inscrutable darkness straight Into her racea white daub In the gloom shapeless indistinct- I have known Madame Boissegur or half a dozen years Miss Thorne ontinued In exp Datlon We have itcn friends that long I met her In oklo later In Berlin and within a ow weeks here In Washington You ee 1 have traveled In the time I jave been an agent for my govern neat Well Madame Boissegur re eived this letter about half past four oclock this afternoon and about half past five she sent for me and placed t In my hands together with the singular details following upon the am bassadors disappearance So it would seem that you and I are allies for this once and the problem Is al really solved There merely remains the task of finding and releasing the ambassadorMr sat perfectly still And why he asked slowly are vou here now For the same reason that you are here she replied readily to see for myself If thethe person who twice came here at nightonce for the am bassadors letters and once for his cigaretteswould by any chance make another trip I knew you were courseYouI was here repeated Mr Grimm musingly And may 11 Just as you knew that I or some one at least had entered this house a few minutes ago she interrupted The automobile horn outside was a signal wasnt It Hastings was In the car Or was It Blair or Johnson Mr Grimm did not say Didnt you anticipate any person al danger when you entered he queried instead Werent you afraid I might shoot No There was a long silence Mr Grimm still sat with his elbows on his knees staring at the vague white spotch which was Miss Thornes face and bare neck One of her white arms hung at her side like a pallid serpent and her hand was at rest on the seat of the couch It seems Miss Thorne he said dt length casually that our paths of duty are Inextricably tangled Twice previously we have met under cir cumstances that were more than strange and nowthis I Whatever In justice 1 may have done you In the past by my suspicions has I hope been forgiven and In each Instance we were able to work side by side to ward a conclusion I am wondering now if this singular affair will take a similar course He paused Miss Thorne started to speak but he silenced her with a slight gesture of his hand It Is only fair to you to say that Servicehavehlearned many things about you resumed in the same casual tone We Have through our foreign agents raced you step by step from Rome to Washington We know that you are in a way a representative of a thattrou were on a secret mission to the Spanish court perhaps for this sover Mfin and remained In Madrid for a month we know thrft from there you went to Paris also on a secret mis sion perhaps the same and re named there for three weeks we know hat you met diplomatic agents of hose governments later In London We know all this we know the mantel of your coming to this country of your coming to Washington But we dont know why you are inure Again she started to speak and again he stopped her We dont know your name but that Is of rio consequence We do know that In Spain you were Senora Gas avant In Paris Mademoiselle dAubi non in London Miss Jane Kellogg ind here Miss Isabel Thorne We re alize that exigencies arise In your call lug and mine which make changes of name desirable necessary even and there Is no criticism of that Now as the representative of your govern ment rather a governmentyou have a right to be here although unaccred ited you have a right to remain here as long as your acts arc consistent with our laws you have a right to your secrets as long as they do not directly or Indirectly threaten the welfare of this country Now why are you here He received no answer he expected none After a moment he went on Admitting that you are a secret agent of Italy admitting everything that you claim to be you havent convinced me that you are not the person who came here for the letters and ofraroftw You have said nothing to n i f tJtr S prove to iiijr cvuMBLXiun uixl YUU lie not the individual I was waiting1 for to nightYou dont mean that you sus pect she began Ina tone of amaze mentJ dont mean that I suspect any thing he Interposed I mean merey that you havent convinced me heres nothing inconsistent in the fact that you are what you say you are and that In spite of that you came tonight for He was Interrupted by a laugh a throaty silvery note that he remem bered well His idle hands closed spasmodically only to be Instantly re laxed I Suppose Mr Grimm I sVoTM you that immediately after Madame Bolssegnr placed the matter In my hands this afternoon I went straight to your office to show this letter to you and ask for your assistance she Inquired Suppose that I left my card for you with a clerk there on be- Ing Informed that you were outre member I knew you were on the case from Madame Boissegur would that Indicate anything except that I want ed to put the matter squarely before you and work with you We will suppose that much Mr Grimm agreed That Is a statement of fact Miss Thorne added y card which you will find at your office will show that And when I left your office I went tr the hotel where you live with the sams purpose You were not there and 1 left a card for ypu And that Is a statement of fact It was not iilmcull owing to the extraordinary circumstances to imagine that you would be here tonightjust as you ureand I came here My purpose still was to Inform you of what I knew and work with you Does that convince you And how did you enter the em bassy Mr Grimm persisted Not with a latchkey as you did she replied Madame Boissegur at- m suggestion left the French window In the hall there unfastened and I camo In that waythe way I may add that Monsieur 1Ambassadeur went out when he disappeared Very well commented Mr Grimm and finally I think perhaps I owe you an apology Mss Thorneanother- one The circumstances now as they were at our previous meeting are so unusual thatIs it necessary to goon There was a certain growing deference In his tone I wonder If you account for Monsieur Bolssegurs disappearance as I do he Inquired- I dare say and Miss Thorne leaned toward him with sudden eager ness in her manner and voice Your theory is she questioned- If we believe the servants we know that Monsieur Boissegur did not go out either by the front door or the The Ambassador rear Mr Grimm explained That being true the French window by which you entered seems to have been the wayYes yes Miss Thorne Interpo lated And the circumstances at tending the disappearance How do you account for the fact that he went evidently of his own will Precisely as you must account for It if you have studied the situation here as I have responded Mr Grimm For instance sitting at his desk thereand he turned to indicate It he could readily see out the windows overlooking the street There Is only a narrow strip of lawn between the house and the sidewalk Now If some one on the sidewalk 0101- n a carriage promptly suggested Miss Thorne Or In a carriage Mr Grimm sup lemented had attracted his atten tion some one he knewit is not at all unlikely that he rose for no ap parent reason as he did do passed along the hall And through the French window across the lawn to the carriage and not a person in the house would have seen him go out Precisely I There seems no doubt that was the way she mused And ofcourse he must have entered the carriage of his own roe will In other words on some pretext or other he was lured in then made prisoner andI- He 1 paused suddenly and his hand met Miss Themes warningly The silence of the night was broken by the violent clatter of footsteps apparently approaching the embassy The noise was unmistakablesome one was run ning The window Miss Thorne whis peredShe rose quickly and started to cross the room to look out Mr Grimm sat motionless listening An instant later and there came a tremendous crash of glassthe French window In the hallway by the soundthen rapid footsteps still running along the hall Mr Grimm moved toward the door unruffled perfectly selfpossessed there was only a narrowing of his v St fro hnmtnau ard cttar of i To be

banquet a speaker compared unfavorably the Ilives and the times of grand fathers and grandmothers not with those of the good old days Fifty or one hundred years hence uo doubt there will be oratoryof the same description The good old days are always those of youth and in the matter of grandparents where shall we find any to equal those with whom we were ac quainted in childhood- It 1 is well enough for afterdinner entertainers to praise the courtesy and dignity of tholown grand fathers and grandmothers but it is in keeping with good breeding to cast reflections upon those pf the present day Because New Yorkers who have grandchildren do not live and dress and divert themselves exactly as did the elderly people in rural districts fifty years ago is it to be concluded that they are delicient in all the joys and graces- Grandparents 1 fifty years ago faced a bloody war growing out of slavery Their knowledge of sani tation was so limited that they ascribed to mysterious Providence deaths that are now known to be preventable Most of their lives they had seen all about them the keenest suffering that is now re lieved lby anaesthetics They knew nothing of antiseptic surgery They witnessed shocking oppres sions of women andchildren They lived at a time when genius was thought to manifest itself in a love for strong drink and when nearly every family had its drunkard They did not know the true meaning of free labor They were familiar in most small neighbor hoods with the insane or idiotic who were confined in outhouses orI permitted to roam the highways Their few newspapers were vitup erative and their pulpits were full denominational rancor Many of the richest of them lived in houses poorly heated and illven tilated Books were scarce and elevating amusements outside of the larger towns were almost un known There was a difference then as there is today between the grandparents who lived in the cities and those who lived in the country but comparing either class now with those of fifty years ago we shall find that in knowledge laws manners customs humanity public sCIice progressivenesscluurity comfort diversions even morals grandparents now as a rule have no reason to envy the lot of their own grandparents two generations ago Our romantic literature is highly misleading on all these points It concerns itself with the parlor of the front porch It conceals the deprivations the make shifts the ignorance and the brutalities that too often limy be hindThere were gentle people ir those dUysof course but there are mutiny more of them now I Xhero wore courtesy and believe ienco then but nothing to compare with what there is now There was contentment then among those who wero satisfied with things as they were but the better times that we now see were hastened by thousands who happily were not I gritIlnllnyvulgar dissipated and sordid but the older civilization bred them too and it honored them as a rule rather more than we do Men who long for u return to the old conditions do not know what they are talking about If this Nation could be subjected tc those conditions tomorrow it would present n spectacle of unexample wretchedness New

shape that there are lots of places where an empty wagon makes a good load for two horses If we had good roads he could huuln full load the year round Madisonville Hustler In short here are three Ken

make the same discovery between now and next January the good roads tax bill will become thogoodronds tux Jaw Good roads mean a larger social life better educational facilities and increased religious opportunities as well as a higher value for farm lands and a higher net mice for farm products The people in those States that have good roads have found out these things It would be asking too much to ex pect the people of Kentucky who have been used to bad roads all their lives to reach the same con clusion without like experience But the fact tnat the people in Kentucky are beginning to count
