BOBB3 MERRILL COMPAIiY CHAPTER XXIII The Percussion Cap There was a long tense silence The cowled figures had risen ominously Miss Thorne paled behind her mask and her fingers gripped her palms fiercely still she sat motion less Prince dAbruzzl broke the si lenco He seemed perfectly calm and selfpossessedHow get In he demand ed Throttled your guard at the front door took him down cellar and locked him in the coal bin replied Mr Grimm tersely I am waiting for you to burn It And how did you escape front from tho other place 1 Mr Grimm shrugged his shoulders Tho lamp is in front of you ho saidAnd find your way here the prince pursued Again Mr Grimm shrugged his shoulders For an instant longer the prince gazed straight Into his In Your Silence Would Be WorthJust How Much scrutable face then turned accusing eyes on the masked figures about him Is there a traitor he demanded suddenly His gaze settled on Miss Thorne and lingered there- I can relieve your mind on that pointthere is not Mr Grimm as sured him Just a final word your Highness If you will permit me I have heard everything that has been said here for the last fifteen minutes The details of your percussion cap are Interesting I shall lay them before my government and my government may take It upon itself to lay them before the British government You yourself said a few minutes ago that this compact was not possible before this cap was Invented wid perfected It isnt possible the minute my gov ernment Is warned against Its use That will be my first duty You are giving some very excellent reasons Mr Grimm was the delib erate reply why you should not be permitted to leave this room alive Further Mr Grimm resumed In the same tone I have been ordered to prevent the signing of that com pact at least In this country It seems that I am barely in time It it Is signedand it will be useless now on your own statement unless you murder meevery man who signs it will have to reckon with the highest pow er of this country Will you destroy it I dont want to know what coun tries already stand committed by the signatures there- I will not was the steady response And then after a little Mr Grimm the Inventor of this little cap insignificant as it seems will receive millions for it Your silence would be worth Just how much Mr Grimm face turned red then white again Which would you prefer An in dependence by virtue of a great for tune oror the other thing Suddenly Miss Thorne tore the mask from Her face and came forward Her cheeks were scarlet and anger flamed in the bluegray eyes Mr Grimm his no priceI hap pen to know that she declared hbtly Neither money nor a consideration for his own personal safety will make Him turn traitor She stared coldly Into the princes eyes And we are not assassins here she added Miss Thorne has stated the mat ter fairly I believe your Highness and Mr Grimm permitted his eyes to linger a moment on the flushed face of this woman who In a way wag de tending him But there is only one thing to do Miss Thorne He was talking to her now There Is no mid die course It fis a problem that Chas only one possible answerthe de struction of that document and the departure of you and you your High for Italy under my personal care all the way I imagined this matter had ended that day on the steamer it will end here now tonight The prince glanced again at his watch then thoughtfully weighed the J J A I 1 i iwrA fJ 1 ll w tc percussion cap In his hand after which with a curious laugh he walk ed over to the squat iron globe In an opposite corner of the room He bent over ljj half a minute then straight ened up- That cap Mr Grimm has one die advantage he remarked casually When It is attached to a mine or torpedo It can not bo disconnected without firing it It Is attached Ho turned to the others It Is needless to discuss the matter further Just now If you will follow me We will leave Mr Grimm here With a strange little cry neither anger nor anguish yet oddly partak ing of tho quality of each Isabel went quickly to the prince How dare you do such a thing film demanded fiercely It Is mur der This Is not a time Miss Thorne for your Interference replied the prince coldly It has all passed be yond the point where the feelings of anyone person even the feelings of the woman who has engineered the compact can be considered A single life can not be permitted to stand in the way of the consummation of this world project Mr Grimm alive means the compact would be useless If not Impossible Mr Grimm dead means the fruition of all our plans and hopes You have done your duty and you have done It well but now your authority ends and I the spe clal envoy of Just a moment please Mr Grimm Interrupted courteously As I un derstand It your Highness the mine there in the corner is charged Yes It Just happened to be hero for purposes of experiment The cap Is attached 7 Quito right The prince laughed And at three oclock by your watch the mine will be fired by a wireless operator fifteen miles from hereSomething like that yes very much like that assented the prince Thsk you I merely wanted to understand it Mr Grimm pulled a chair up against the dour and sat down crossing his legs On his knees rested the barrel of a revolver glittering fascinating in the semi darkness Now gentlemen and he glanced at his watch Its twentyone minutes of three oclock At threp that mine will explode We will all be In the room when it happens un less his Highness sees fit to destroy the compact Eyes sought eyes and the prince removed his mask with a sudden gcs ture His face was bloodless- If any man and Mr Grimm gave Miss Thorne a quick glance I should say any person attempts to leave this room I know he will die and theres- a bare chance that the percussion cap will fall to work I can account for six of you If there is a rush But man It that mine explodes we shall all be killedblown to pieces burst from ono of the cowled figurer If the percussion cap works sup plemented Mr Grimm Mingled emotion struggled In the flushed face of Isabel as she studied Mr Grimms Impassive countenance I have never disappointed you yet Miss Thorne he remarked as If II were an explanation I shall not nowSho turned to the prince Your Highness I think it needless to argue further she said We have no choice in the matter there is only once course destroy the compact No was the curt answer I believe I know Mr Grimm better than you do she argued You think he will weaken I know he will not I am not arguing for him nor for myself I am arguing against the frightful loss that will come here In this room if the compact Is not do stroyedIts absurd to let One man stand In tho way declared the prince angrily- It might not be an Impertinent question your Highness commented Mr Grimm for me to ask how you are going to prevent one man stand- Ing in the way A quick change came over Miss Themes face The eyes hardened the lips were set and lines Mr Grimm had never seen appeared about the mouth Here in a flash the cloak of dissimulation was cast aside and the woman stood forth this keen brilliant determined woman who did things The compact will be destroyed shesaidNo declared the prince- It must be destroyed Must Must Do you say must to me Yes must she repeated steadily And by what authority please doBy that authority She drew a tiny flllgreed gold box from her bosom and cast it upon the table the prince stared at It In the name of your sovereign must IIheaald again The prince turned away and began pacing back and forth across the room with the parchment crumpled la his hand For a minute or more Iwibpl rnAWatching him i 1 l- r s 14to If f2 y r 7 t urniron nttnuwrar E z truasn an nounced coldly And now broke out an excited chatter a babel of French English Ital- Ian Spanish those masked and cowled ones who had held silence torso long all began talking at once One of them snatched at the crumpled compact in the princes hand while all crowded around him arguing Mr Grimm sat perfectly still with the revolver barrel resting on his knees Eleven minutesI he announced againSuddenly the prince turned violent ly on Miss Thorne with rage distort ed face Do you know what It means to you If I do as you say he demanded savagely It means you will be brand ed as traitor that your name your propertyIt If you will pardon me your High ness she Interrupted the power that I have used was given to me to use I have used it It Js a matter to be settled between mo and my government and as far as it affects my person is of no consequence now You will destroy the compact Nine minutes said Mr Grimm monotonouslyAgain babel broke out Do we understand that you want to see tho compact one of the cowled men asked suddenly of Mr Grimm as he turned No I dont want to see It Id pre fer rot to see it With hatred blazing in his eyes the prince made his way toward The lamp holding a parchment toward the blaze Theres nothing else to be done he exclaimed savagely Just a moment please Mr Grimm interposed quickly Miss Thorne Is that the compact She glanced at it nodded her head and then tho flame caught the fringed edge of paper It crackled flashed flamed and at last a thing of ashes was scattered on the floor Mr Grimm roseThat is all gentlemen he an nounced courteously You are free to go You your Highness and Miss Thorne will accompany me He held open the door and there was almost a scramble to get out The prince and Miss Thorne waited until the last And Miss Thorne if you will give us a lift in your car Mr Grimm suggested It is now four minutes of threeThe automobile came In answer to a signal and the three in silence en tered it The car trembled and has Just begun to mote when Grimm re membered something and leaped out- Wait for mel he called Theresa man locked In the coal bn He disappeared Into the house and Miss Thorne with a gasp of horror sank back In her seat with face like chalk The prince glanced uneasily at his watch then spoke curtly to the chauffeurRun the car up out of danger therell be an explosion there in a momentThey had gone perhaps a hundred justleftthe ground by a great spurt of flame which tore through Its center then collapsed like a thing of cards The prince unmoved glanced around at Miss Thorne she lay in a dead faint beside him Go ahead he commanded Bal timore CHAPTER XXIV The Personal Equation Mr Campbell ceased talking and the deep earnestness that had settled Instoadthe nevolence behind which his clocklike genius was habitually hidden The choleric blue eyes of the president InqulrIngly rightthencewhichtheIt was a special meeting of the cabinet ChiefCampbell hadbeen lastItmade ItInpersonMr ofhishandsHasped listlesslyWe understand Mr Grimm the president began aqInlltantyoung man with a certain admiration You Your Highness and Miss Thorne Will Accompany Me we understand that there does not actually exist such a thing as a Latin comnact against the Englishspeaking yn- L 7 t 0 J r t I w aeuv On paper ho was the reply You personally prevented the sign Ing of the compact I personally caused the destruc tion of the compact after several dig natures had been attached Mr Grimm amended Throughout Ihavo acted under the direction of Mr Campbell of course You were In very grave personal danger the president went on It was of no consequence said Mr Grimm simply The president glanced at Mr Camp bell and the chief shrugged his shoul ders You are certain Mr Grimm and the president spoke with great de liberation you are certain that the repreoantaUves of the Latin countries 1 have not met slnco and signed the compact I am not certainno replied Mr Grimm promptly Iatn certain how ever that the backbone of the alliance was broltenits only excuse for ex Istenca destroyed when they per v mltted me to learn of the wireless percussion cap which would have I placed the navies of the world at tholr mercy Believe me gentlemen If they had kept their secret it would have given them dominion of the earth They made one mistake he added In a most matteroffact tone They should have killed me It was i their only chance 4 I 1tied1 That would have been murder he remarkedTrue Mr Grimm asqulesced but ii it seems an absurd thing that they t should have permitted the life of ono man to stand between them and tha a world power for which they had so long planned and schemed His High ness Prince Benedetto dAbruzzl be s Heved as I do and so expressed him self He paused a moment there i was a hint of surprise In his manner I expected tp be Killed of course It seemed to me the only thing that could happen They must have known of the far j 1follow1 Why didnt they kill you 1 J Mr Grimm made a little gesture with both hands and was silent May they not yet attempt it the president Insisted Its too late now Mr Grimm explained They had everything to gain by killing me there as I stood In the room where I had Interrupted the signing of the compact because that would have been before I had placed the facts In the hands of my govern ment I was the only person outside of their circle who knew all of them Only the basest motive could Inspire them to attempt my life now There was a pause The secretary of state glanced from Mr Grimm to Mr Campbell with a question In his deepset eyes Do I Understand that you placed a Miss Thorne and tho prince under that is you detained them 7 he queried If so where are they now I dont know was the reply Just before the explosion the three of us entered an automobile together and then as we were starting away I remembered something which made It necessary for me to reenter the house When I came out again Just a few seconds before the explosion the prince and Miss Thorne had gone The secretarys lips curled down In disapprovalWasnt It rather unsual to put it mildly to leave your prisoners to their own devices that way he asked Well yes Mr Grimm admitted But the circumstances were unusual f When I entered the house I had lock ed a man In the cellar I had to go back to save his life otherwise Oh the guard at the door you mean came the interruption Who was It- Mr 7 GrImm glanced at his chief who noddedIt Mr Charles Wlnthrop Ran kin of the German embassy said the young man Mr Rankin of the German embassy was on guard at the door de manded the president quickly Yes We got out safely And that means that Germany wasI1 The president paused and startled lances passed around the table Aft era moment of deep abstraction the secretary went on Bo Miss Thorne and the prince es caped Are they still in this coun try rThat I dont know replied Mr Grimm He stood silent a moment staring at the president Some subtle change crept Into the listless eyes and his lips were set Perhaps I had better explain hero that the personal equation enters largely into an affair of this kind he said at last slowly It happens that it entered into this Unless I am ordered to pursue the matter further I think it would be belt for all concerned to accept the fact of Miss Thorn escape and = He stopped There Was a lour thoughtful si lence Every loan in the room was studying Mr Grmmsmpaaeive face Personal Equation mused the tdoest the affair t llKhtl7iThere are some people Mr President whom we meet frankly aaene mies and we deal with them accord ingly and there are others Whoop pose us and yet pre not enemies It cropsWefolthemare

thIsthIs wire Jess percussion cap we are right back where we were before It all happened arent we Every possible danger hasnt1tImpossibleaThats a question answered Mr j Grimm If you will pardon me for suggesting it I would venture to say that as long as there is an Invention of that Importance In the hands of nations whom we now know have been conspiring against us for fifty years there is always danger It seems to me If you will pardon me This Note Mr Grimm Is Surprising again that for the sake of peace we must either get complete control of that invention or else understand It so well that there can be no further ri danger And again please let me call your attention to the fact that the r brain which brought this thing Into existence is still to be reckoned with i There may some day come a time when our submarines may be explod ed at will regardless of this percus sion cap The secretary of war turned flatly upon Chief Campbell This woman who is mixed up In this affair he demanded This Miss Thome Who Is she Who is she repeated the chief Shes a secret agent of Italy one of the most brilliant perhaps that has ever operated In this or any other country She is the pivot around which the intrigue moved We know her by a dozen names any one of them may becorrect The brows of the secretary of war were drawn down In thought as he turned to the president Mr Grimm was speaking of the personal equation he remarked point edly I think perhaps his meaning is clear when we know there is a woman In the case We know that Mr Grimm has done his duty to the k last inch In this matter we know I practicallyIman of his relative position has ever done beforeprevented a world war Put there Is further dangerhe him self has called out attention to it therefore I Would suggest that Mr Grimm be relieved of further duty In this particular case This Is not a moment when the peace of the world may be imperiled by personal feelings ofof kindliness for an Individual Mr Grimm received the blow with out tremor His hands were still l IIleyes fastened upon tho presidents face were still listless the mouth abJJ solutely without expressIonII h outhf negotiating for this wireless percussion cap I have somewhere in my a office the name and address of the in dly dual with whom these negotiations have been conducted Through that it is possible to reach the Inven tor and then I suggest that we vote our thanlcs to Mr Grimm and 1 relieve him of this particular case The choleric eyes of the president BOttened a little and grew grave ag they studied the Imptualve face of th- eryoung mad Its a ttrftwp I Mr Grimm ht Mli Ml1Wht do i r you say to wiuiuntwiiiB I am at your orders Mr Presi dent was the reply tnows youhavethis table the president wont on slowly No one questions that you have done more than any other man could have done under the circumstances We understand 1 think that Indirectly you are asking Immunty for an Individual I dont happen to know the liability of that individual under our law but we cant make any mistake now Mr Grimm and soand so He stopped and was silent- I had hoped Mr President that what 11 huve done so fnrand I dont underestimate Itwould have at least earned for me the privilege of re nlnrir In this care until Its con elusIon said Mr Grimm steadily 11 It is tobe otherwise of course I nm rat History tell us Mr Grimm Inter rupted the president Irrelevantly that the froufrou of a womans skirt has changed the map of the world Do you believe he went on suddenly that a man can mete out Justice larIly severely If necessary to one for whom he has a personal regard 1 do sir- Perhaps even to oneto a woman whom he might love I do sir The president rose Please watt in the anteroom for a few minutes ho directed Mr Grimm bowed himself out At the end of half an hour he was again summoned Into the cabinet chamber Tho president mot him with out stretched hand There was more than mere perfunctory thanks In this there was the understanding of man andmanYou will proceed with the case to the end Mr Grimm he Instructed abruptly If you need assistance ask for It If not proceed alone You will rely upon your own Judgment entire ly If there are circumstances which make It Inadvisable to move against an Individual by legal process even If that Individual is amenable to our laws you are not constrained so to do if your Judgment Is against It There is one stipulation You will either secure the complete rights of the wireless percussion cap to this gov ernment or learn the secret of the invention so that at no future time can we be endangeredby It Thank you said Mr Grimm quiet ly I understand- I may add that it Is a matter of deep regret to me and the presi dent brought one vigorous hand down on the young mans shoulder that our government has so few men of your type In Its service Good day CHAPTER XXV We Two Mr Grimm turned from Pennsyl vania Avenue Into a cross street walked along half a block or so climbed a short flight of stairs and en tered an office Is Mr Howard In he quoded of a boy In attendance Name please Mr Grimm handed over a sealed envelope which bore the official Im print of the Department of War In the upper left hand corner and the boy disappeared into a room beyond A moment later he emerged and held open the door for Mr Grimm A gen tlemanMr Howardrose from his seat and stared at him as he entered This note Mr Grimm is surnrls Ing he remarked- It Is only a request from the sec retary of war that I be permitted to meet the Inventor of the wireless per cusslon cap Mr Grimm explained carelessly The negotiations have reached a point where the War De partment must have one or two ques tions answered directly by the inven tor Simple enough you see But It has been understood and I have personally Impressed It upon the secretary of war that such a meeting Is impossible objected Mr Howard All negotiations have been conducted through me and I have as attorney for the Inventor the right to answer any question that may properly be an swered This now is a request for a personal interview with the Inventor The necessity for such an Inter view has risen unexpectedly because of a pressing need of either closing the deal or allowing It to drop Mr Grimm stated I may add that the success of the deal depends entirely on this interview Mr Howard was leaning forward In his chair with wrinkled brow intently studying the calm face of the young man Innocent himself of all the In trigue and international chicanery back of the affair representing only an individual in these secret nego tiations he saw in the statement as Mr Grimm intended that he should the possible climax of a great busi ness contract His greed was aroused It might mean hundreds of thousands of ddllnrs to him Do you think the deal can be made1 ho asked at last I have no doubt there willI be some t sort of a deal replied Mr Grimm As I say however it is absolutely de pendent oh ah interview between tile Inventor and myself at oncethIs afternoonMr thoughtfully drummed on his desk for a little while From the first save In solar as the patent rights were concerned he had seen no reasons for the obligations of utter secrecy which had been enforced upon him Perhaps If he laid it before the inventor In this new light with the deal practically closed the Interview would be possible- I I have no choice in the matter Mr Grimm he said at last I shall have to put it to my client of course Can you give me say half an hour to communicate with him Oertainljr and Mr Grimm TOM ToboouunMdd r = y i- fr

546 MT STERLING KY I Why Advertising in Newspapers Is Increasing We have noticed various com ine Iits of late in the newspapers re lating to the remarkable growth of advertising The statements relate to the increased display matter not only in newspapers but in maga zines as well The writers however remain content with stating the bare facts us regards the greatest amount of space used now in comparison with that of a few years ago and fail to analyze the causes of this really amazing growth So far as the increase of adver ti ing in general isconcernedwe believe that it is caused by the in crease of competition in business Commercial r ulrwas never re keen than it is today and the producer who lags behind in the publicity procession has only himself to blame for small sales small profits rind limited reputa tion Advertising is the staff of com mercial life Advertising is the wheelhorse of merchantile pro gress The merchant who has competi tion to meet cannot afford to offer the best articles on the market and rest assured that his rightful share of trade will come to him He must tell the people about these articles or they will lie dust covered on his shelves Then too the increase in the wealth of the country multiplies activities that have use for advertising space So far as the newspapers along are concerned they arc not only benefiting from the causes men tioned but their advertising is rabidly expanding owing to the better idea of thclaluc as pub licity mediums had by advertisers and the public The space buying public is coming more than ever to realize that the best possible meth ed of reaching the people of purchasing power is to use the news I speciI localnewspaper covers it entirely Billboards are rarely impressive to large number of people in high class communities and street car advertising is valuable only in the large cities The increase of advertising in the country newspapers is almost entirely due to time growing knowl edge of their undoubted merits on the part of users of space This field neglected by many advertising managers for years appears to be nearing the time when it will come into its own These papers have suffered Treat deal from thf monopolization of the foreign ad vertising field by the magazines of large circulation But the trend is IIHluall r swing ing the other way Magazines ad vertisers are becoming the news paper advertisers The number that has changed is small as yet but the movement has begun That is the point of importance to the newspapers of the country American Press Camargo a Flourisihng Village We are glad to note the rapid growth of Camargo this county and wouid not be surprised to see some remarkable advances in the development of that beautiful little village within the next few years Property values are fast increasing Land that could have been purchased ten years ago for 25 an acre is now brinuing 100 to 150 an acre The people of Camargo are pro archive and constitute one of the best elements ot our citizenship They have good churches and schools and are uptodate in all respects It is said that two wealthy New York families con template erecting beautifulsum mel homes at Camargo in order to take advantage of the medicinal springs in that neighborhood We are glad to see all carts of outI good county prosper and especially extend our congratula tions to the good people of Cam argo for their urogressiveness and good citizenship In this connection we wish to add that several prominent families from the mountains have settled in that neighborhood and we taka pleasure in extending them a wel come and in expressing the hope that others from tho mountains will from time to time cast in their lot with us 402t A 1 1 J 1J AI T1 1 7 = I r I o tiJ J lrF Advocate

Reciprocity Agreement with Canada now before our National Congress for rati fication or rejection would prove detrimental to their best interests by causing a reduction in the market price of farm products we have taken the trouble to investigate our government statistics on the subject and find that for the live years ending June 30 1910 our business with Canada was as follows Horses We sold in Canada 14172075 Canada sold to us 2540201 Difference in our favor S 116- 22874Catttel i 4ttH l i1 We sold in Canada 1578179 Canada sold to us 1198796 Difference in our favor 384383 Aleut and Dairy

than it sells to us Why shut ourselves in from such a market Of course the paper trust arid wood pull trust object to a reduction in the cost of paper but we fail to see why the farmer should oppose an increase in the demand for his products by enlarging the market PAY CASH FOR BRICK STREETS We are informed that the contractors who propose to bid on our brick streets will make a much lower bid if

Ihibition finds that when a certain class is shut oft from its liquor supply it seeks the drug stores ffor stimulants to satisfy the cmv 5 inks of their abnormal appetites At first these people try a small pelleti of morphine to soothe and satisfy but not for long The np ipetite grows upon what it is fed and soon the Hypodermic syringe gets in its awful work The conscience is seared memory fails general unreliability follows and 1 lying and stealing come on apace iif the drug cannot be obtained in any outer way The drug habit is the curse of tthe country nor can it be laiden rarely on prohibition The dope ffiends are almost as numerous in the wet as in the dry communities and there is nothing sadder than the sight of these human derelicts on the sea of life A habitual user of opiates cannot disguise the fact 1 He is a marked man andunless reclaimed finally sinks to degrada ttion and death The laws against the improper prescribing and selling of drugs that soothe and excite for a time should be as stringent as possible Indeed it ought to be a peniten tasty offense for a druggist to sell such drugs except on prescription not sims Ir ofn physician but onej nown to him to be reputable Thej depravity and degradation of the man who for a few dollars helps to destroy the minds andt bodies of human beings can hardly be imagined And yet there are thousands who live by
