Let us go now; we may have no

They proceeded thither in silence,
The countess seemed greatly fatigued

Emile carefully initiated her daughter

Now let us hasten back" said the
countess. shivering with the chilly
night air.
Just as she turned, she paused sud-
denly, and, extending her hand, said,
with crT.aua cO1oror
Heaven bless you, Emile, and re-
ward you for all your devotion"
He held her hand in his just BRIEF
moment, then dropped it without a
word. The countess drew Felicie's arm
within hers and hurried away, nor cast
a single backward glance. They were
just in season to escape detection, and
had hardly removed their wrappers
when the count burst in upon them.
Tomorrow night, Felicie, my lover

convalescent, and insists that there be

be such a paltry affair; but we'll cele-
brate it in worthy style when we return
again to France. But be sure you look
a little like Languedoc. After all, the
Giess can be quite as pretty as if you
had a dozen corbeilles from Paris.
There's plenty of rich lace in the ward
robe, and the diamonds will brighten
all. I want Edward to remember his
bride as charming picture, though
there be no guests nor festival
"And you intend to proceed at once

the pistol wavered from SIDE TO side.
Halt! or l shoot your he said, with a
strong foreign accent.
Don't shoot!r cried Keppel, lifting
his hand. II mean you no harm. I'm
fainting from fatigue and hunger. l
must eat and sleep"
The man lowered his weapon. "Ah!
it is no ghost, thenT' he muttered in
French, and sank back on his pillow.
Keppel approached and looked down
on him. He seemed all skin and bone;
his hair grew disorderly on his forehead,
and the lower part of his face was cov-
cred with three weeks stubble of red
beard. His skin was dark yellow, his
lips black and parched. Keppel had
never seen the yellow fever, but he per-
ceived that the man was dying He had
arrived at this deserted spot in time to
behold the curse of Maurice Solange full
filed upon the thief who had betrayed
him.
Catoctin clarion., 1897-05-06

He passed hts hand ouer his forehead.
Cipher writing is so ancient an art
that there is little or nothing to be said
about it, and perhaps there are no new
cipher types to be invented. The ideal
cipher is one that is easily written and
read by those in the secret and yet is
practically undecipherable by outsiders.
In such cipher all the time and labor are
expended upon determining its funda-
mental principles of construction. Once
those are settled, the practical working
of it is simple.
The cipher which Keppel was dealing
with was of this species, and perhaps
no more nearly perfect one was ever
made. 1t was based upon the philo-
sophie structure of language, and upon
the mathematical principle that gives
different values or meanings to char
acter according to its place in a combi-
nation. This plan enables words to be
written with much fewer letters than
are contained in the ordinary alphabet
and to be expressed with not more than
four characteristics, one to represent the
root of the word, one for the termina-
tions, one for the part of speech, one for
such common combinations as ion, ght,
ment, ph, and so on. Thus, if in the
cipher ikmn meant writing, then iklm
would mean writer, iknm written or
wrote, and ikln to write. Further mod
ifications were indicated by the capital
letters, and others Of a different kind by
the periods and commas.
D,,t hn n
these hints any further. Enough has
been said to enable the reader, if he be
so minded, to work out the problem.
Keppel in the course of twenty minutes
had read the cipher letter. which, trans
lated from the French into English, ran
as follows:
Arrangements have been perfected.
Name of messenger, Maurice Solange.
Trust him. He leaves Paris February
fifteen. Will take easterly route, and

ted for millions or money was cUnIpre-
hensible, and this would account for the
murderer's strange behavior. On the
other hand, if those millions had been
stolen, where were they? Were they
about the premises?
Keppel Darke had never heretofore re-
garded money as supreme object of
ambition. But things were changed
with him now. He was an outcaset from
society; mankind was hostile to him; in
the unequal contest he was disposed to
improve whatever advantages came in
his way. If, then, millions of money
were within his reach he was not in a
mood to let them escape.
Here Keppel gave short laugh. The
millions probably had no existence what
ever, except in the imagination of an in
sane man.
He turned over the papers once more.
Among them was one small document,
folded square, that he did not remember
noticing before. He was about to pass
it over, but an idle impulse caused him
to change his mind and open it. The
odd aspect of its contents attracted his
attention.
It looked something like a long sum in
algebra. There were columns and COM
binations of letters. There were also
written words in the French language
For several minutes Keppel contem-
plated the paper without a suspicion Of
its significance. 1t was not a sum in al
zebra. There were no equations; no
or y, no powers or signs. 1t might be
memorandum in shorthand or cipher.
Yes, it was probably cipher memoran-
dunn. But it was not all in cipher. The
words seemed to be a comment or ex-
planation.
ut strikes me-" said Keppel to him
self, "that I've seen something like this
somewhere 'C. Kphl.-S. lnmp. That
looks familiar"
All at once he began to feel in his
pockets with signs of excitement.
Here it was-the newspaper cutting,
containing the cipher letter found on the
person of Harry Trent after his death.
Ksppel spread it out on his knee and
compared it with the anomalous docu-
ment. In moment he uttered cry Of
surprise-surprise that his wild anticipa-
ton had been fulfilled.
The cipher of the letter and the cipher
of the document were identical. But
the latter was the key to the former and
the explanation of it, and by its aid Kep-
pei could read the mysterious communi-
cation as easily as he could construe
French.

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1897-07-31

From gentleman who has just ar
rived from Blue Mountain mining dis
trict in southern Utah it is learned
that an important strike has just been
made in the Fairview claim, consist
ing of a seven-foot body of ore at a
depth of 81 feet that carries average
values of $3.50 to SAC in free milling
gold to the ton.
The Fairview is located across the
gulch from the Gold Dream mine, and
is considered as being one of the most
important discoveries that has been
made in the camp for sometime, as it
demonstrates the fact that the gold
belt is far more extensive than at first
supposed, as it was not known until
the strike was made that the gold
bearing zone extended across the gulch
from the mountain on which are To-
Gated the Gold Dream, the Gold Queen,
the Eureka and the group of claims
owned by the Blue Mountain Mining &
Tunnel company of this city, and The
Herald is informed that the find is on
owned by this company, thus proving
the continuity and extension of the
ledge.
There is considerable excitement in
the Blue Mountain country over the
discovery, and from a letter Just re-
ceived from there it is learned that all
claims on which work is being prose-
cuted the showing is most encouraging

HISTORICAL SOCIETY.
COMMITTEE MEETS WITH THE
JUBILEE COMMISSION.
Objects of Interest Now In the Hall
Of Relics VIII Be Turned Over to
the State Historical Society.

The Utah semi-centennial commits
sion met last night to continue the
work of winding up the affairs of the
Jubilee. The principal business of the
commission was the passing upon a
large number of bills, and it will meet
again Monday night for the same pur-
pose.
Before the regular business was at
tended to, the commission was waited
upon by committee representing the
State Historical society. which is about
to be organized and incorporated. The
committee consisted of Governor Heber
NJ. Wells, General John Q. Cannon,
chairman; Antonette B. Kinney, DR..
Ellen B. Ferguson, Spencer Clawson,
h. f. Colburn, j. r. Letcher and II. c.
Whitney. They explained the objects
of the society and stated that they in
tended TO complete the organization of
it as soon as possible. They desired to
establish a permanent hall of relics,
similar to the one established by the
Jubilee commission, and they desired
the commission TO turn over to the So
ciety the relics now in the hall, or any
how, they desired that the commits
sion make no other disposition of the
relics until the society could organize.
The commission passed a resolution TO
this effect, deciding to turn over to
the historical society all the relics do
mated to the state, with the consent of
the original donors and subject to the
action of the state legis-
ature in the matter.

THE FREE COINAGE.
Charges of "Stock Manipulation"
Being Made.

Complaint has been made that GER
tain parties III this city have been ma
nilulating the stock of the Free Coin
age Gold Mining & Milling company
TO the detriment of some of it's stock
holders.
The property of the company is To-
Gated in the Free Coinage district near
GrantsviIIe, and, from what can be
learned regarding the same, it is un-
derstood that the company is employ
irg force of five men in it's develop
ment and that a 22-inch pay streak has
been disclosed in the mine that carries
average values of 80 per cent lead At
ounces silver and S26.40 in gold to the
ton.
From the best information obtain
able it is learned that the true condi-
ton of the mine is withheld from the
public, locally, but that the promising
condition of the property is given pub
LEFTY in the east, where the stock of
the company finds ready sale, it being
alleged that the stock is purchased in
this city for a song and sold to eastern
people at 80 cents snare.
The complaint is made that while the
stock is fully worth so cents a share,
such transactions are detrimental to
local stockholders, who, being ignorant
of the true value of the property, are
disposing of their holdings at loss.

THE IRREPRESSIBLE BROWN.
Notorious San Francisco Preacher
Wants a Rehearing.

San Francisco, July 30.-Rev. c. o.
Brown. formerly of this city, but now a
resident of Chicago, has appealed for
a reopening of his case before the Bay
conference of the Congregational
church. DR.. Browns appeal came in a
letter received by Rev. G. 3. Hatch OF
Berkeley, registrar of the Bay con-
ference. As a result the conference will
meet a week from Tuesday next at the
First Congregational church in Oak
land and will not only grant Dr.
Browns request for mutual council,
but will vote to ask the Chicago aSso-
citation to join with it in another coun-
Gil of the same kind, to submit the
question of Congregational usage as TO
whether one association can receive
into membership minister who is un-
der suspension by another body of
equal standing.
The Bay conference has always been
anxious for a settlement of -he con-
troversy and the way now seems clear.
Dr. Brown, by making the request,
has placed himself on record as ad-
hitting the authority of the Bay con-
ference in determining his case The
impression prevails here among Con-
gregationalists that DR.. Brown has
taken such an attitude that the con-
ference, and it alone, will make the
settlement.
The committee that will be appointed
in response to DR.. Browns request
will also attend the mutual council.
The committee from the Bay confer
ence will insist at the mutual c3urcl
as it has always contended that the
action of the Chicago association in
the Brown case was irregular. Should
the council decide in accordance with
this view, the ex-pastor will be in pre-
ciseIy the same position as when he
left San Francisco under the ban of the
Bay conference.
