business. Under the law, you are per-
mitted to sentence me ten years in
states prison. 1t is now within your
power to do so. While 1 do not ap'
peal to you for mercy, I dc wish to say
that think the penalty prescribed by
the legislature is just about double
what it should be in a case like mine
Five years in states prison, in my
Judgment, would be about the right
penalty. Let US look at the facts Of
the case. Here is man who violates
all rules of decency by coming out
with an ugly looking big diamond pin
He evidently was some cheap clerk in
an east side store and he throws right
in the way of the professional thief a
temptation to steal the stone simply
for its commercial value and not for
its beauty. Do you think it was prop
er for that man to wear that diamond
pin loosely in his tie in that way?"
"You evidently believe in socialism, u
said the recorder.
"No, don't believe in socialism in
the way that you have reference to it,
replied the prisoner "but I do believe
that FIVE years would be about right in
case of this sort. Society would not
be benefited in any way if you impos.
ed sentence of ten years upon me. !
alone would be the only interested
person."
"You seem to he very bright man."
said the recorder. SNOW, tell me, do
you think that you could make up
your mind to reform
"a very ridiculous proposition" an
swered the prisoner. ~ wish to say
right here, your honor, that only one
out of about 100 criminals who come
here and tell you that they intend to
reform ever do reform. I don't be-
lieve it's in me to reform, although
such thing is possible. I have known
of stranger things than that. How
ever, 1 wish to tell the truth, and in
telling it I must say that I really don't
think there is any earthly chance for
me to reform"
"I'll sentence you to states prison
for a term of FIVE years at hard labor u
said the recorder, and the notorious
pickpocket was hurried away by Dep
uty Sheriff Daniel Kelly, who took
him to Sing Sing on the 2.25 train yes
terday afternoon.

spent the day in his boarding house
for the most part. Just after the at
tack he went TO the store Mah0n &
Arnold, but returned at once. About
the middle of the afternoon he went to
the home of his father, Captain Samuel
Stradley, in West Greenville. The
incident, of course, made some i'm
preston upon his feelings; but he had
no abuse for his brothers.in-law. He
refused to make statement for pub.
| lication.
Just before meeting his brothers,in-
law at the door, Mr.. Stradley told
friend in the boarding house that he
expected some trouble. The friend
offered to accompany him if he would
wait; but Mr.. Stradley said "No !"
that he had kept them waiting too long
already. Then the friend offered Mr..
Stradley his pistol, which he recon-
mended as true and never failing. Mr..
Styadley refused this saying, che did
not want to harm his wife's brothers."
The letter in Mr.. Stradley's hands at
the time of the attack was one from
mort hern house offering him lucrative
position on the road. The Ivys say
they offered him $50.a-month posi-
ton in Rock Hill, and that he replied
that be would not work for less than
50, 1000 a year.
1t was reported on the street that
the attack was the result of Mr.. Strad-
ley's sending his wife an abusive letter;
but Frank Ivy positively denied this
and said that no such letter was re-
ceived from Mr.. Stradley.
The Iyys made no statement at the
trial and put up no witnesses. They
pleaded guilty as to Morrow Ivy,
through their attorney, who said that
they contended that they were justif-
able on account of the great provoca-
ton, although they were technically
guilty of an Insignificant violation.
They are the sons of the late Colonel
Ivy, a prominent and wealthy banker
and cotton dealer. Morrow Ivy was
an officer Of the First South Carolina
regiment. 1t is understood that they
say Mr.. Stradley has failed to support
his wife-their sister-and continued
idle after having spent 81 800 of her
money.

Malleable Glass.

Neri, whose book on glass was pub
lished at Florence in 1912, says, In
the time Of Tiberius was invented a
way of making glass malleable, a thing
afterward lost and to this day wholly
unknown. for if such thing were now
known without q doubt it would be
more esteemed for its beauty and incor-
ruptibility than silver or gold, since
from glass there ariseth neither smell
nor taste nor any other quality" But
though unknown to the old Italian, the
art was practiced in Persia, if we may
believe Bailey, who says that in 1910
Sophi, emperor of Persia, sent to King
Philip III of Spain six glasses that were
malleable and would not break by be-
ing hammered, and Blacout tells that
all inventor, having presented bust OF
malleable glass to Richelieu, 1920, was
rewarded for his ingenuity by perpetual
Imprisonment lest the vested interests
Of French glass workers should be in
iured by the new invention

ABnIIT THE FILIPlNOS.

Lieutenant VIM. Braunerseuther,
executive officer of the Charleston,
whose exploit. in making the bloodless
capture Of the Ladrone islands last
summer, is remembered, writes an in
teresting letter from Manila to Hon.
Augustus Pollock, of Wheeling, w.
Va. Lieutenant Braunerseuther is
now captain of the port at Manila, and
has under him some 500 native Fiipl.
nos whom he finds it easy to control.
Speaking of the natives, he says:
1.-The natives themselves, left to their
own intentions, will never prove trou-
blesome. They would be only too
willing to earn meagre living and get
a few dollars. They are not hard to
handle at all. employ several hum
dred in my department and find no
trouble whatever, though I have often
to work them at night in docking and
undertaking unlocking of vessels.
During all the fighting, among the hun.
dreds in my employ, they remained
loyal and faithful. l lost only five or
six in all, and these I believe were
frightened off for fear of subsequent
molestation should the rebels (as they
contended they could do) wipe all the
Americans off the face of the earth.
"Heretofore, when lighting with
Spaniards, the rebels have been badly
organized and much worse armed.
Notwithstanding this condition, they
had in general way success out OF
every engagement with their national
enemies. Since that time they have
been much better drilled, better armed
and better organized, and they natur-
ally concluded they could easily sue
ceed iu extermiuating. the Americans.
They tried it two weeks ago yesterday
at 9 p. N. Oh, my, what a surprise !
Thousands of them are dead, cremated
and buried, and the hospitals are filled
with the wounded, many of whom will
never recover. They have lost in and
about here over 10000 men. Our loss
has heen less than 100 men to be ex-
act IS officers and men killed and 275
wounded. Our wounded people have
u much better chance of recovery than
theirs, for this reason the Mauser ball
makes a cleaner and smaller wound
than do our Remington and Spring
fields. To give you an example of
this, in one of the hottest parts of our
firing line a soldier fought for three
days, having been wounded on the
first night by Mauser bullet through
the thigh above the knee. He says
that during the fight he thought he
rushed up against brush and was
struck by thorn"

Just the same as though they had read II

Georges room-the blade buried IN the
woman's heart. A man, Fitzgerald. ell
deavors to take possession of the womsn's
iewelry. Brett interferes, whereupon the
man denounces him to the police as the
murderer, and he is marched to the sta
ton. Brett proves his innocence and Is
discharged. George Fenton endeavors to
escape, but after long flight is last ar
rested, charged with the murder of Harri-
ct Staples, woman to whom he has long
been known to be attached. Mabel Fen
ton has faith in her brothers innocence.
She tells Brett that if George is guilty she
will never marry him, being the sister o1
a murderer. MI. Keighley Gates is heard
talking about the glass dagger. Brett re-
solves to establish Georges innocence.
George describes the murder of Harriet
Staples as he witnessed it. She refused to
marry him. He turned from her, heard

Mrs. l. V. Bardin, Miss Elizabeth
Bardin and Miss Mary Radcliffe, of
Philadelphia, were witnesses today be-
fore the grand jury, which is still try
ing to investigate the murder of Thom-
as Pinckney, Jr., says Charleston
dispatch of Friday. There was rip
pie in the jury room while Miss Rad
cliffe was on the stand. "Do you
know" said a juror, "that the public
thinks everybody in the Bardin house
on the night of the shooting should
have been arrested and lodged in jail"
"Well, now, you just try that on me-"
replied the young woman in an indig-
nant tone, "and you will have more
lead poured into you than was put in
poor Tom Pinckney." This caused
stir. The juror got red under the
neck, and according to report, Miss
Radcliffe was ready to continue on
that line. She is handsome young
brunette and her dark eyes flashed as
she made her statement to the jury.
The investigation took another turn

CHAPTER XVII.
MIR. GATES COMPLETES HIS ARRANGE
ArENTS


MENTS.
Mr.. Keighley Gates seemed somewhat
disturbed when Commander Brett had
left him. He walked up and down the
room impatiently, and from the NUT
tered expressions that occasionally fell
from his lips it could be gathered he
was cu1sing somebody, but whether it
was Brett, Fitzgerald or himself it was
impossible to say. At length he sat
down and finished hearty breakfast.
At II o'clock he left the hotel in a
short Jacket and bowler hat and made
his way east to the house where Mabel
Fenton was imprisoned. He worked his
way there by particularly circuitous
route, employing trains, buses, ham
SONS and steamer for his purpose, and
he cast many wary elances behind to
assure himself he was not being fol-
lowed. 1t was l o'clock when he reach
ed the house. Fitzgerald was waiting
for him.
"Confound you, Richr' said Gates
"a pretty bungle you have made OF
yesterdays business!'
whats the matter? Got the girl all
right"
"Brett suspects you. Your internal
way of speaking did it"
Thought I dissembled to suit occa-
sion. However, it don't matter. l leave
the blooming country after tonight. No
good hanging on here"
81 think you better had, for my sake
as we'll as yours. Then you got the girl
all right? Much trouble?''
Nothing to speak of. She's been cry
ing her little eyes out. Sally looks after
her."
Ibid Dick get off all right:'
"Left first thing this morning.
Where's he gomez
"Some place in Gloucestershire' with
wire for old Fenton. 1t will take him
out of the way and drag off that med
ding fool Brett as we'll.
every WE'LL" said Gates. "And now
to sketch out the detail Of our next plan
of campaign. But it's dry work talk
ing"
"Water, my friend, water-nothlng
else. And, if you want to hear further
reason, here you are: We're in tight
place, you and 1, and it'll require all
our wit to get through to the other side.
I can work best dead sober, and so can
you. You're sullen when you haven't
got drop Of anything generous under
your waistcoat and surly and mighty
disagreeable as companion. But pay
you the compliment of saying that at
these times you're one of the shrewdest
business men with whom I've the un'
happiness to be acquainted.
Mr.. Gates bowed to the dubious com
pliment, sighed and drew his chair up
to the broken table. Then he commenced
to talk, and DR.. Fitzgerald was not faI
wrong in lauding his generalship. In
his own crooked way the man was ter
ribly clever.
So Mr.. Gates spent another hour with
Fitzgerald. making final arrangements
