CHAPTER Ml.
The New Mr. Rawn.
It was a wholly different John Rawn
"who, at forty-eight, found himself

of the president of the International
Power Company, in the city of Chicago.
The past was so far behind
him that he could not with the utmost
striving reconstruct the picture of it.
He was a wholly new. distinct and different
man. He had not as yet ever
worked at a desk blessed with a row
of push buttons, and was ignorant aa
yet, and very naturally, in regard to
the particular function of each of
these several buttons whose mother
of pearl faces now confronted him.
Resolving to take them seriatim, h<=
pushed the one farthest to the right;
rvViinV) as it rhanoed. was the one ar
ranged to call to him his personal j
stenographer.
The door opened silently. John
i Rawn looked up and saw standing befor
him a young woman whom he had
.never seen before. "I beg pardon;
Madam/' said he, half rising. "I
didn't know you were there. How did
?is there anything I can do for you?"
"I am the stenographer assigned
for your work, Mr. Rawn, until. you
shall have concluded your own arrangements
In the office," answered
th? young woman.
She was almost tall, certainly and
wholly 6hapely; young, "but fully and
adequately feminine; womanly indeed
. in every well curved line. Her hands
and feet, he:" arms?the latter now
disclosed by half sleeves?all were of
good modeling. Her hair, piled up in
rather high Grecian coiffure and confined
by a bandeau of gold-brocaded
ribbon, was perhaps just in the least
startling.
Virginia Delaware, Mr. Rawn's per
:sonal stenographer, was born the j
-daughter of a St. Louis baker. She
had, however, passed through that
'epoch of her development and by
some means best known to herself
:&i'd her family, had attained a good
education, ended by three years in a
young ladies' finishing school in the
east.
"'I was just about to say," he went
on, "that I intended to have the boy
get my car ready. Would you tell him
to have it at the door in fifteen minutes?
Then come back. There are
one or two little letters."
A few moments later the young
"woman was seated at a small table
near the end of the desk. Without
any nervousness she awaited his pleasure.
Mr. Hawn's long and shiny car was
waiting for him when he stepped with
stately dignity down the broad stair
of the National Union Club.

trance to his home. Speed limits arc
:not for such as Mr. Rawn.
This residence, yot another of thesf
'pretentious mansions, top heavy on
Ufcp inadequate delimitatiocs, and done
by one of the most ingenious archi
tects to be found for mon^v, was as
new, as hideous, as barbarous as any
that could be found in all that long
assemblage of varied proofs of arohi
tectural aberrations. It was as new
as Mr. Rawn himself. The brick
walks were hardly yet firmly settled,
the shrubs were not yet ?ure of root,
.the crocus rows in the borders still
:stowed gaps. Large trees, transpiant'
?Q fbodily, still were sick at heart in
'their new surroundings.
Rawn's dignity was such that he
scarcely saw the man who took his
coat and hat, and who received 110
greeting from his master. Laura Rawn
:needed to speak to him the second
time.
"Well," said he, turning and sighing,
*Jfhow's everything?"
"Very well, John."
"Not so bad, eh?" He jerked a
t:humb to indicate the lake.
"It's grand!" said bis wife, yet with

bigger or grander than this."

perhaps three generations, possibly
three aeons, of being happy.
With little more speech after the
evening meal than they had had before,
an hour, perhaps, was passed
in the room which the architect called

room. Then Laura Rawn, as was her
wont, passed silently up-stairs to her
own apartments?or her bedroom, as
she called ic?widely removed, in the
architect's plans, from those of her
husband. One room, one couch, had
served for both in Kelly Row.

In appearance Virginia Delaware
might have won approval from a closer
critic than John Rawn. Her face
really was almost classical in its
lines, her poise and dignity now mieht
have been that of some young, cleanTimhpri
wnori-e-oddess of old. She ai
ways seemed unfit for humdrum duties.
"We have some letters this morning,
Miss Delaware," began Rawn.
"You couldn't quite take care of them
all, eh?"
"We handled all we could, Mr.
Rawn. I have referred a large number
to proper department heads, and
answered quite a number. It seemed
better to refer these for your own action."
"Business growing, eh?" said Rawn,
turning around to his desk. The girl's
reply was just properly enthusiastic
for the business:
"It's wonderful the mail we get.
Inquiries come from all over the country.'
Yes, indeed, it seems to grow."
"I was about to say, Miss Delaware,"
Rawn answered, "that I am,
as you know, a very busy man."
"Yes, sir," she said, evenly and impersonally.
"I have so many things to do, you
see, that I don't get much time to
attend to little things outside of my
business. A man's business is a millstone
around his neck, Miss Delaware.
We men of?ahem!?of affairs
are little better than slaves."
"Yes, Mr. Rawn," she said gently.
"T ltnHoretanH that "

"For instance, I don't even know,
as long as I have been here in Chicago,
the names of the best Arms of
decorators, house furnishers, that sort
of thing?"
"Does Mrs. Rawn get about verymuch,
sir?"
"Mrs. Rawn unfortunately is not
very well. Also she has the habit of
delaying in such matters. Then, as I
don't myself have the time to take
care of everything?why, you see?" j
Her eyebrows were a trifle raised i
by now. j
- ?
"?So I was just wondering whether
I couldn't avail myself of your?your
?very possible knowledge of these
stores?shops, I mean."
"Of course, Mr. Rawn, I'd be willing
to do anything I could," she sart. "I
know the city pretty well, having lived
here for some time. If you would
rather have me use my time in that
way, it would be a great pleasure. I j
like nice things myself, though of
course I could never have them. I've j

he window-pane! But what is the j
color scheme, Mr. Rawn?"
"About everything the confounded
builders and decorators could think
of," said Rawn frankly. "I think they
called it a gray-and-silver motive. I
know there's something in whjte, with
dark red for the doors and facings."
Miss Delaware sat for a moment, a
noncil against her lip, engaged in
ihought.
"Certainly, Mr. Rawn. I'll be very
Tlad to do it, if I can be spared from
the office."
"That's all, Miss Delaware."
She passed out gently, impersonally.
Rawn found himself looking at the
door where she had vanished.
It was perhaps an hour later that
he re-opened the door himself in answer
to a knock. Miss Delaware stood j
respectfully waiting. "There is a man }
from Jansen's waiting for you, Mr.:
Rawn." said she.
"Tell Irini ro come in," said Rawn.
"Th^re rose from a near-by s^atagrayh;

from his pocket aad spread out upon

felt his own eyes shine, his own isoul (

diamonds which spoke to him.
"Ah-hum!" said he, feigning indifference,
"some pretty good ones, eh?"
He poked around among them with
the end of his penholder, as the ,
gray and grave man quietly opened
one paper package after another, and
exnosed his wares.
John Rawn reached out and pushed!
the button farthest to the right in the!
long row on his desk. Miss Delaware
came and stood quietly awaiting his
command.
Something in the soul of Virginia
Delaware leaped! For the iirst time
her eyes shone with brighter fire; for
the first time she half-gasped in actual
emotion. There was something

Shp bent above the desk, her eyes
aflame at the sight of the brilliance
that lay before her.
"I should say your choice is excel- j i
lent, Mr. Rawn," said she at length,|
gently, controlling herself. "The pendant
is beautiful, set with the emeralds.
And as for the rings, I'd take!
this one, I believe, with the two steel- ;
blue stones." i
"How much?" said John Rawn, turning
to the grave and gray salesman.
"TJje two pieces would cost you
twenty-eight thousand dollars, sir,"
the latter replied, gravely and imper- sonally.
"Miss Delaware," said John Rawn,

a check for that amount. Bring it in
to me directly?and have the boy call

When John Rawn ascended the
steps of his mansion house that night, 1
he fairly throbbed with the sense of
his own self-approval. There was that !
in his pocket which, he thought, when
worn by the wife of John Rawn at J
any public place of display, would indicate
what grade of life he, John
Rawn, had shown himself fit to occupy.
He lost no time in summoning 1
his wife, and with small ado put in
her extended hand the little mass of

at them almost stupefied.
"Well, well!" he broke out, "can't
you say anything? What about it?
They're yours."
"Oh, John!" she began. "John!
What do you mean? How could you?!
how could I?"
For one moment he looked at her,
and she shrank back from his gaze.
But Rawn's anger turned to self-pity.
"My own wife won't wear my dia- j
monds," said he.
She came now and put her armsj
about his neck, the first time in years; j
but not in thankfulness. She looked i
straight into his eyes. "John!" she
said. "Oh, John!" There was all of
woman's anguish in her eyes, in her
voice.
CHAPTER IV.
At Headquarters.
Halsey and his wife, John Rawn'B
daughter, had taken up their residence
in the small Chicago suburb in which
the central plant had been located.
Their cottage was a small one, and it
was furnished much like other cottages
thereabout, occupied by salaried
men, mechanics, persons of no great
means. It retained something of the
complexion of the old quarters in
Kelly Row.
Naturally, Halsey was often taken
to the central offices in the city for

company. He frequently met there I

bered to mention in his own home.
As do many men even in this divorceful
age, he set aside comparisons,
forced himself into loyalty.
On one such occasion he found himself
in the position known among salaried
workers as being "called upon i
the carpet" before "the old man." I
Rawn held a letter in his hand to
which he referred as lie chicled Hal- i
sey for the delays in his department I
of the work.
"Do you suppose I can stand for i
this sort of thing coming from New i
York?" he began. "What's the matter
out there with you?" i
"There's something I don't under I
stand about it, Mr. tfawn. The men
are very sullen. The foremen tell
me that they never had so much "
trouble. Of course. they don't under- 1
stand it themselves, but it's just as
though our secret was getting out, and (
as if the men were afraid of cutting s
their own throats when they build i
these machines. Not that they under- I
stand what it's all about?it's air 1
tight yet, that's sure." ]
"You begin to see some of the practical
results of your infernal social- 5
istic ideas, don't you, then? You'll
come to my notion of life after a 1
while." ]
"Mr..Rawn, what's the end of that? '
What's the logical conclusion?"
"Well, I'll tell you! One end and
logical conclusion is going-to be that :
I'll get some one to handle that fac- 1
tory if you can't; and he'll handle it 1
the way I tril him!"
"You want my resignation now?"
"in vrry 7 \< iy tal e it if it weren'tj
tor Grace. Fides, we've started on j
!'iis thir.sr tor?Miu r: and moreover |
again, I want you, when I go to New j
York, to see the directors and explain I
to them that their impatience is all i
wrong."
"Is there much disi."c tisfaction down
[here?"
"Yes. We've both got. to run down |
past to-morrow r.ight. Co on out now, j
and reserve four compartments on
the limited."
"Four?"
"Yes?we'll want a place to eat
and work on the road. I've got to
take a stenographer along, of course."
"Then you couldn't use the stenographer
on the train?I mean the regular
one?"
"I could not, Mr. Halsey," said
John Rawn icily. "What business is
it of yours?"
"None in the least. I was only i

very?stunning. All right, Mr. Rawn,
I'll be ready to start to-morrow, and
I'll count on getting back here by the j
last of the week, at least. Good day,
sir."
He left the room quietly. He was
a handsome, stalwart young man, but j
in some way his face did not look
happy.

"That may all be very well," commented
one of the members at the
directors' meeting of the International
Power Company, held on the
day of Rawn's arrival in New York;
"that mav sll hp trnp hut what do I
we know about the practical applica-j
tion? I've heard of extracting gold i
from sea water?and the fellow proved
it right before your eyes! The world
is full of these things, getting rich all
at once, but usually when we get to
the bottom of it, there's the same old j
gold brick."
The speaker was rather a slight
man, with dark, pointed beard, a man
whose name swayed railway fortunes,
but whose digestion was not worth
mentioning.

paid John Rawn calmly, "that's there's
a chance to lay down right here, if
your feet are getting cold. Better
quit now than later on. I won't work
with men who haven't got heart in
this thing. If any of you are scared,
let me know. I couldn't take over all
your stock myself, of course, but if
you want to let go, I believe I can
swing another company organization."
They looked at him silently, here
and there a gray head shaking in negation.
Rawn's eye lighted.
"That's the Idea!" said he; "we'll
sit ugnt."
He turned to catch the eye of the
late objector. "I'm going," said the
latter importantly.
"And good riddance!" said John
Rawn calmly.
"I'll take care of you for that, one
of tliese days, Mr. Rawn!"
"Why not now?"
"You'll see what I'll do to you in
the market!"
"The market be !" said John
Rawn evenly. "There isn't any market.
There isn't anything to buy or
sell. If there is any stocK onerea,
I'm the market, right here and now.
Go on and do what you can."
Kalsey rose and placed cn the table
the little model which he took from
the case at his side. In principle, it
was the same which had been shown
in the original demonstration at St.
Louis, long before, although in workmanship
it was in this instance a trifle
more finished, showing more of shin-j
Ing brass and steel. Halsey looked;
about hesitatingly.
"Shall we use the fan again?" he;

"Not on your life!" cut in Acker-1

the other day."

lecturer, which Rawn once more gra?
piously surrendered to him, waving a j
hand largely in his direction as though
in explanation to the others. "It's
3imply the attuning of a motor to the
Tree electrical current in the air?the
svireless idea, of course. You're post- j
3d on all this. Now, I've got some I
little things here which will show j
ome of the applications of our idea.!
We'll make a little track, for a railway
train, and we'll run its motor
tiere with current of our own. simply
by our receiver for the free current."

The thing was there to show for it- J
self. As to the breadth of its applicalion,
these men needed no advice, j
They were accustomed ro me iook j
.ahead, to the weighing of wide possi- j
bilities.
"That's t*e travel of the future, gen- j
Lleinen," said John Rawn soberly, at |
length. "They can take or leave it. j
So can you."

mto?d millions of capital. They were
ooking upon a device which in the be- j
ief or' all was about to multiply these j
millions many-fold.
Rw\vn was the. first to break the ;
silence.
"Gentlemen," said he, "of course j
:his is the big part of our company i
patents, and it is over this that we've
met today. You've been doubting my
executive ability. I have shown you
what the prize is that we're working

and we can't complete one machine?
we've got to bring them all through at
once, together?and indeed, got pretty
near to tinish thorn all ourselves. We
can't take any people in on this secret,
of course. It all takes time, and
it all takes morey. What do you want,
gentlemen? I can't do much more
than I have done."
"And it's enough!" cried the bearded
man, his voice harsh, strident with
his emotion. "We've got to have it!
Let's stick, let's stick, fellows! They'll
never shake us off. There is absolutely
no limit to this thing."
"Is that still the way you feel, Jim?"
asked Standley from his end of the
table.
"Yes, it is; how about it, gentlemen?"
answered Ackerman's deep
voice.
His eyes turned from one to the
other, and found no dissent, although
the air of each man was earnest, almost
somber.
"Shake hands, then," called out the
hoarded man with enthusiasm, a man
who had swayed millions by the force
of his own convictions before that
time.
"Let's all shako hands, then, gentlemen,"
said John Rawn.
They did so, each man reaching out
his hands to his neighbor; Halsev, of
course, stepping back as not belonging
to that charmed circle.
"Move we 'journ," said Ackerman.
The president dropped the gavel on
the table top.
Rawn finally escaping from the
crowd of importunate reporters who
waited in the halls, at length broke
away to go to his rooms. He met
Halsey in the lobby. The latter had
in his hand a telegram, which shook
somewhat as he extended it.

Rawn dropped the message to the
floor. Halsey's face looked so desperately
old and sad that for one moment
Rawn almost forgot his own
grief. "You'd better go on home. Charley,"
he said. "Too Jbad?to get such
