CHAPTER XII.
In Which-the.Last Round Takes Place.

ONE.
It T\-trs rlurlnp: the next hour or two
that the full value of Mr. Jerome K.
(iroen as an acquisition to the party
became apparent. Certain other prepjr
aratlons in honor of Peterson's arrival
were duly carried out, and then arose
i. the question of the safe in which the
all-important ledger was kept.
? "There it is;" .said Drummond, pointing
to a heavy steel door flush with the
wall, on the opposite side of the room
? ti. the big one containing Lnkington's
ill-gotten treasure. "And it doesn't
seem to 111c tiiat ypu're going to open
that one by pressing any buttons in
the wall." " j
."Then, Captain," drawled the American,
"I guess we'll open it otherwise.
It's sure plumb easy. I've been getting
gay with .some of. the household
effects, and this bar of soap sort of
caught my,?yjK";\ \ r'
From his pocket he produced some
ordinary yellow -'soap, and the others
glanced, at him curiously.
"I'll just giye you a l/ttle demonstration,"
he continued, "of how our swell
cracksmen over the water open safes
when the owner's have been so tactless
as to remove, the keys." ,
Dexterously he proceeded to seal up
every crack in the safe door with the
soap, leaving a small gap at the top
.unsealed. Then (round that gap he
built what was to all iutcnts and pur
poses a soap dam. ?
"If any of you boys," lie remarked
to the Intent group around liiin, "think
of talcing this.up'as a means of livelihood,
be careful of this stuff." From
another pocket ho produced an indiarubber
bottle. "Don't #rop it on 'the
floor unless you want to lie measured
for your coffin. There'll Just lie a boot
and some bits to bury."
The group faded away, and the
. American laughed.
. "Mightvlbask^vdiat It; IS?'.* murmured1
Hugh politely from the neighborhood
of the door.'
"Sure thing, Captain," returned the
detective, carefully pouring some of
the liquid into the soap dam, "That Is
what I told you I'd got?gelignite; or,
as Hie hoys cnlj it, the oil. It runs
ngni luiinu me oia?'i\> <n iiu- uimi inside
the soap." Ho a<l<lo?l a little more,
and carefully replaced the stopper.
"Now, n detonator and a lilt of fuse,
and I jiness we'll leave the room."
"It reminds onc-mf * those dreadful
barbarians, the sappers, trying to blow
tip things," remarked Toby, stepping
with some agility into the garden; and
a moment or two later the American
joined them.
"It may lie necessary to do it again,"
he announced, and as he spoke the
sound of a dttil explosion came from
Inside the house. "On the other hand."
he continued, going back into the room
and quietly pulling the safe door open,
"it may not. There's your hook, Captain."

got your hrr-nkfasts. I'm going to bo
busy for u liit."
He sat down at the table and begun
to turn the pages. The American was
( amusing himself wiltb the faked Chi-nes"
cnbiiiei ; Tolly and Peter sprawled
In. run chairs, unashamedly semiring.
Ami after a while the detective put
down the cabinet and, coining over,
ssil ut Ih'iiiunitmd's side.
Kvery page contained an entry?
sometimes half a dozen?of the same
typo, and as the immensity of the
project dawned on the two men their
faces grew serious.
"1 told you he was a big man. Captain,"
remarked the American, leaning
hack In his chair and looking at the
open book through half-closed eyes.
"One can only hope to Heaven that
we're in lime." returned Hugh. "I>?n
it. mail." lie exploded, "surely the police
must know of this I" ,
The American closed his eyes still
more. t
"Your English ])olico know most
things," lu* drawled. "but you've .s'orl
, of got some peculiar laws in your
country. Willi us. if we don't like a

reuses to sit up and lake nourishment.
J'.ut over hero, the more scurrilous lie
is. the more lie talks bloodshed and
riot, the more constables does he get to
guard him from catching cold.
Tile soldier frowned.
"l.ook at this entry hero." he grunted.
"That blighter is a mouther of parliament.
What's lie gelling four payments
of a thousand pounds for':"
"Why. surely ?o Pay some nice warm

Then _Jie leaned forward and
glaneod at the name. "Hut. isn't lie
some pou in . oim of- your big trade
unions?"
"iI:mveil- knows," grunted Hugh. "I

"Working toward n revolution in

"Sure thing," answered the American.
"And when lie brings it olT, I

I for a while iJrummoAd smoked in
silence,- v. hilq the two sleepers shifted
"No more is Peterson," grinned the
American; ":it least not on that f.ook.
See hero. Captain, it's pretty clear
what's happening. In any country today
you've got all sorts and conditions
of people with more wind than-brain.
They just can't strip tnlking, and as yet
it's not a criminal offense. Some of
i 'em believe wiiat they say, tike Spindie-shanks
upstairs; some of 'em don't.
And if they don't, if. makes 'em worse;
tliey start writing as well. You've got
clever men?intellectual men?look at
some of those guys in the first-class
general lecturers?and they're the
worst of the lot. Then you've got another

i A var.ving number of sub-districts in
! every main division lmd each liieir sub1
director and stafF, and at some of the
' names Drununnnd rubbed his eyes in
j amazement. Briefly, the duties of every
j man were outlined; the locality in
i which his work lay, his exact responslI
bililles, so that overlapping was reI
(lured to a minimum. In each case the
j staff was small, the work largely that
j of organization. But. in each district
j there appeared ten or a dozen names
| of men who were euphemistically dei
scribed as lecturers; while at the end
j of the hook there appeared nearly fifty
; names?both of men and women?who j
| were proudly denoted us first-class lec- |
furors. And if Drummond had rubbed ,
his eyes at some of the names on the
organizing staffs, the first-class general
lecturers deprived him of speech.
"Why," he spluttered after a moment.
"a lot of these people's names
are absolutely housewold words in the
country. They may he swine?they
probably are. Thank God! I've very
rarely met any; hut they ain't criminals."

if these arc (lie sums of money Peterson
has blown, the man must have
spent a fortune. Two thousand pounds
to Jvolsky. Incidentally, that's the
Ijloke who had words with the whatnot
on tlie stairs."
Irf silence they continued their study
of Dii! book. The whole of England
and Scotland had been split up into
uneasily In their chairs.-it nil .seemed *?
.
so simple in spite of the immensity of i
the scheme. I/ikc most normal English- j
men. polities and Inbor disputes had f
left idm cold in the past; but no one }
who ever glanced at a newspaper
could be ignorant of the volcano that
had been simmering just beneath the I
surface for years past. f

Drftmmond nodded, and lit another !
eigafptte. Odd tilings lie had read re- j
currcd to him; trade unions refusing |
to allow discharged soldiers' to join i T
them; the reiterated threats of direct I |
action. And to what end? _ f
A passage in a part of the ledger evi- '
dentiy devoted to extracts from the i
speeches of the first-class general iec- j
turers caught his eye: j
To me, the big fact of modern life is |
tlie war between classes. . . . People j
declare that the method of direct ae- \
tlon inside a country will produce a f
revolution. I agree ... it Involves i
the creation of an army. ..." j
And beside the cutting was a note J
by Peterson in red ink: *
"An excellent man: senu ior prv- j
tracted tour." v "
The note of exclamation appealed to '
Hugh; he could see the writer's
| tongue In his cheek as he put It In. !!
"It Involves the greation of an army. ;
. . The words of the Intimidated i'
rabbit came back to his mind. "The
man of stupendous organizing' power,
j who has brought together and welded
Into otte the hundreds of societies similar
to mine, who before this have !!
each, on their own, been feebly stnig- j
gllng toward the light. Now we are I
| combined, and our strength Is due to T
! him."
In other words, the army was on the j
I road to completion, an army where t
ninety per cent of the fighters?duped i
by the remaining ten?would struggle I
blindly towards a dim, half-understood I
goal, only to find out top late that the |
whip of Solomon had been exchanged *
for the scorpion of. his son. ... j
"Whv can't they be made to under- f
stand, Mr. Green?" he cried bitterly. I
"The working man?the decent fel- ?
low?" ' !
"Has anyone tried to make 'em un- J
derstainl, Captain? I guess I'm no In
tellpctual guy, hut there was a French j
writer fellow?Victor Hugo?who i
wrote something that sure hit the nail 1
on the head. I copied It out, for It j
seemed good to me." From his pocket- |
hook he produced a slip of paper. " 'The f
faults of -women, children, servants, I
the weak, the Indigent and the ignorant I
arc the faults of husbands,. fathers, *
masters, the strong, the rich, and the
learned.' Wall!" he leaned back In his
chair, "there you are. Their proper
leaders have sure failed them, so n
they're running after that, bunch of
cross-eyed skaters. And sitting here, .(
watching 'em ruD, and laughing fit to tis
beat the band, is your pal Peterson!" J
It was at that moment that the tele
pho^e boll rang, and after a slight hcs-l^'
itation Hugh picked up the receiver. u
"Very well," he grunted, after listen- '
| Ing for a while, "I will tell liira." ^
t He replaced the receiver and turned ^
I to the American. Tfl
"Mr. DItchling will he here for the ()f
meeting at two, and Peterson will he t)i(
; late," he announced slowly.
"What's DItchling when he's at '
home?" asked the other.
"One of the so-called lenders." an- cl]
swered Hugh briefly, turning over the i sli
pages of the ledger. 'Here's his dos- j
sior, according to Peterson. 'DItchling, sjn
Chnrles. Good speaker; clever; unscrupulous.
Requires big money; worth '
It. Drinks.'"
gr<
For a while'they stared at the brief ,lf)
summary, and then the American burst ,
Into a guffaw of laughter. no

T^IE ill-fated !
I expedition j

: This iarge'ex- I
peditod was wrecked at the |
mouth of the Mississippi In 11328. .
Four (members including Cabezn - f,
de Vaca were captured by the J
Indians and spent eight years I
wandering through .the country f
eventually reaching the Gulf of !
California, It was their ac- f
counts of rich Indian villages I
which led the Mexican governor j
to send Coronada to explore this i
country. He returned after a \
two-years' trip without discover
Ing the reputed riches which he I
was seeking. j
To counteract the aggressions |
of the French "settlements In f
Louisiana, the" Spanish estab- I
llshed many missions throughout f
Texas, the most important bo- !
ing at San AntoDio. When the f
United States negotiated the \
Louisiana Purchase from France j
ihey considered that Texas was j
a part of this territory. Over j
this question war was nearly I
precipitated but finally the Uni- j
ted State# withdrew their claims i
In exchange for Spain's with- f
drawal of claims to the Oregon ?
region. I
. Many'Americans began to set- f
tie in Texas, among them Gen- ;
eral Sam Houston and Stephen f
F. Austin. Mexico became !
alarmed at this rapid Increase i
of American pioneers which t
tlireatened to crowd out the Mex- j
lean population. > Oppressive f
measures were adopted and
caused the Americans to rise *
in rebellion In 1S36. During this \
uprising occurred the gallant de- ;
*.fonse of the Alamo by a handful ?
of Americans and their slaughter I
by the vastly superior numbers ?
" ??
The same power of advertising could
now "sc prosperity to the whole
I country. Tlierc is. enough to write
about and talk about in advertising to
stir the nation to a realization of our
country's limitless resources and illimitable
development potentialit'es.

Some say we cannot afford, to advertise.
The answer is, you caVinot afford
not to advertise.
Why advertise when there is no
business to be had? say others. Because
the only way to create business
j is b? advertising. ..
Why advertise when we have no
'money to loan? say some bankers; and
the answer is, no class ever needed to

bunkers now do. Perhaps you may
.have no money to loan today, as some'
say; but you are not a good banker.if
you fail to sell credit to every customer
who has the proper security
with which to buy it. A banker borrows
money from his depositors and
sells credit to his borrowers. It is a
merchandise transaction.
It would be a poor merchant who
could not find ways to provide goods
for his customers so long as they
: could pay. lie is a poor banker who
j cannot find credit to sell to his customers
so long as they arc able to pay
the price and assure the final redemption,
and bankers need to win public favor
just us much as railroads did 25
I years ago. Railroads missed their opj
portunity to' cultivate the public and
1 they are now paying the penalty,
i Bankers, therefore, cannot afford not
! to" advertise. .Vor. for that matter,
ican any other class of business men..
Newspaper publishers intensify tlr
' ways and means of advertising" when !
ever business men lessen theirs. V.'hen
; business is dull many industries shut
1 down, but when business is dull live
1 newspapers push out with greater
[ vigor than ever before. They/practice
what they preach. Let others follow
their preaching and their example and
soon once more would be heard "the
music of progress, the whir of" the
spindle, the throb of the locomotive,
the roar of the furnace." Pessimism
| wood bo buried beneath the abounding
spirit of optimism. Credit wouldvbe
restored to the merchant and the
manufacturer. The banker would \io
longer fear to do. business.
The spirit of patriotism -for business
is iis vitally important to the nation's
welfare as was the spirit of patriotism
for. the war four years ago. 'J'lu
slacker then was a coward. The
stacker and the pessimist of today arc
