PEoTosE. Kan. July 2. 1894.
Permit me to thank you for the informa-
ton relating to Japan's exports of brick,
etc, TO the western coast. The entry of
Japan, India and even Afghanistan, into
the circle OF industrial nations Is likely TO
have q profound effect, IL seems to me,
upon social as we'll as industrial condi-
tlons among all the western peoples, and
especially in view of the fact that there
already exists an industrial plant nearly
or quite twice as great as required to sup
ply existing populations whose power to
purchase is being daily destroyed by this
excessive power 10 produce.
Reluctantly i have come to the conclu-
sion that the enormous increase of the pro-
ductive power of each labor unit, due to
the adoption of improved processes, with
out commensurate increase of tue unit
power 10 consume, has caused the present
condition of commercial and industrial
stagnation so unpleasantly affecting every
civilized people. and that neither tariffs,
fiscal nor monetary conditions have had
much 10 do Herewith. and that this con-
dition Is likely 10 become far worse as We
increase each labor units power 10 pro-
duce; and that only in the direction of
soil production is there any hope OF relief,
and here only because of the utter impos-
sihiiity of multiplying the productive

ILIS llL-SoNTlNUED
Brinkley knew by this last phenome-
non that the spray concealed the en-
trance of some large subterranean
cavern. If any doubt had remained in
his mind it would have been dispelled
by the appearance of a solitary pigeon,
which, leaving its companions, wavered
lightly, flew back through the spray
with a rapid downward flight and dis
appeared.
He was floating little nearer with
an enjoyment deepened by the sense Of
danger, when figure suddenly ap-
peared on the rocks close by him,
wildly waving its hands.
"Keep back! Keep bacls!' cried a
voice.
He looked at the figure and recog-
nized William Jones. He answered
him, but the sound of his voice was
drowned by the roar from the rocks.
Then William Jones shouted again
more indistinctly, and repeated his ex-
cited gestures. 1t was clear that he

CHAPTER TX.

The young man Of the caravan was
now thoroughly convinced that one of
two things must be true: Either that
William Jones had been instructed to
keep a watch on him, or that he will
liam Jones) had secret of some sort
which he was anxious not to have re-
vealed. After both suggestions had
been duly weighed the second was
accepted as the most likely, and it
forthwith received the young mans
consideration.
If there was a secret, he argued, it
was in some way connected-frstly,
with William Jones' worldly pros
perity; secondly, with the reports cur
rent of treasure hidden in times past
among the sand hills of the dangerous
caverns of the sea. Was it possible,
after all. that these reports were true
and that in some mysterious manner
Jones had become acquainted with the
hiding place? It seemed very :nprob-
able, for many reasons, one of the
chief being the mans extreme poverty,
which appeared to touch the very edge
of sheer starvation.
A little inquiry in the neighborhood,
however, elected the information that
Jones, despite his abject penury. was
certainly well to do and had money in
the bank of the neighboring market
town; that the ruined village of Aber-
glyn belonged almost entirely to him,
and that, in short, he was by nature
and habit misery person. who would
prefer boarding up whatever he pos
sessed to purchasing with it the COM
monest necessaries Of life.
An old coast guard, whom Brinkley
found next day on the station. was his
chief informant
Don't you believe him, sir" said the
old salt, ssif he tells you he's poor. He's
a shark. William Jones is, and couldn't
own up even to his own father. Itsmy
belief he's got gold hidden somewhere
among them sand hills, let alone what
he's got in the savings bank. All. he's
| a artful one, is William Jones"
Brinkley had said nothing of his own
private suspicious, but had merely in.
troduced in a general way the subject
of Jones' worldly position. Further
conversation with Tim, who had made
a few struggling acquaintance in the
district, corroborated the other testi.
mony. The young man became more
and more convinced that William Jones
was worth studying.
Matt had not turned up that morn
ing. Instead of looking after her
Brinkley took another stroll toward:
the vicinity of the Devils Caldron. He
had not gone far before he discovered

A Victim Of the Glass.

The woman was vain, excessively
vain. but she was pretty, and possibly
felt in her own heart that that would
excuse her. Whether it would or not,
she was at reception one night and q

"My, that's pretty woman" he said
as she passed.

him, ''but she is the victim of the

was warning the swimmer against
some hidden danger. Brinkley took
the warning, and struck out for the
shore, and then back to the place
where he had left his clothes.
Watching his opportunity, he found
a suitable spot and clambered in upon
the rocks. He had just dried himself
and thrown on some of his clothes,
when he saw William Jones standing
near and watching him.
"How are you?" asked the young
man, with a nod. "Pray what did you
mean by going on in that absurd way
Just now?"
"What did I mean?" repeated Will

ment. Look We, now, I was waving

to himself. retired. But he only as
cended the neighboring crag, and,
souatting himself there like bird of
ill-omen, kept his eyes on the stranger.
Having dressed himself, Brinkley
climbed in the same direction. He
found William seated on the edge of a
-crag, looking the reverse of amiable,
and amusing himself by throwing
stones in the direction of the sea-

A story comes from Paris of veneer
able and benevolent judge, who, at the
moment of passing sentence on a pris-

justice, invariably consulted his asses

penalty to be inflicted.
'What ought we to give this rascal,
brother?'' he would ask, bending over
to the assessor on the right.

''What is your opinion. brother?' to
the assessor on the left.
81 should give him about four years"
Whereupon the good old justice
would address the prisoner thus: ''Pris'
