1T would have been all right" an
had put them into an honest mans
hands. AS it is you are lame-in fact,
utterly at the mercy Of Frye, who is
robbing you" Then, after thinking a
moment, he added: ~ will gladly do
what l can to help you, Mr.. Terry,
and at no cost to you for my own serv-
ices The first step must be to get
possession Of these material proofs, the
next to find what firm has employed
Frye. We are helpless until we get
possession Of those proofs
'Ain't my word an Lissy's as to
savin' the baby no 'count?" asked
Uncle Terry.
Every good, so far as it goes, but
really no proof that the child you
saved is the one wanted for this in
heritance. In the matter Of a legacy
the law is very exacting and demands
absolute proof. No, the only way is
to use duplicity and trick Frye or ask
him to name his price and pay it, and
as the estate may be large his price
will naturally be extortionate.''
Albert thought a moment and then
added, HAS Frye ever written you

proofs in his possession"
SINnf word TYra1o ra~

progressing favorably. I need so much

"How long since he has sent for
money!" asked Albert
"'Bout month, I reckon replied
Uncle Terry.

After pause Albert asked Uncle
Terry:

To test some theories of his own re-

ings Carl Stocked, a millionaire of
Norfolk, Conn.,, founder of the Itch
field County Choral union and other
county organizations, is planning to
have erected in the rear of his home
a temporary she'd 90 by SO and %
feet high, says a Winsted Conn., dis
patch. About $4,000 feet Of timber, or
enough to build four $1,000 houses,
will be used in the construction of the
building. which, it is estimated, will
cost about $4,000. If the "shed," as
he pleases to call it, comes up to his
expectation in musical acoustics it
may serve as a model for similar build
ings in size and proportions, but of bet

Remarkable Appliances For Fight
ing In the Dark.
It is evident that the Japanese are
making use Of every modern contriv-
ance in existence to obtain perfect ef-
6ciency in their navy and army, says
a London dispatch to the Philadelphia
Press. We have heard how Admiral
Togo utilized wireless telegraphy on
several occasions and particularly ut
the terrible boEbardment which he in
ficted on Port Arthur March 10. We
now learn hat the Japanese navy is
equipped with a remarkable system of
sound signaling which has already
been of immense use. This apparatus
was furnished to them by MIR. G. E..
kelway, a naval engineer of London,
and the following are the details of
the invention.
The system enables Il slip to move
safely on it's object.,e Tar" /. FIX
ness, dense fog or bi.a:,..a 500: and
it has been used in ;i....oaciliny Port

reached or avoided in darkness by the
Use of the locator" which measures
sound and indicates to the listener the
distance of any whistle, siren, beat Of

besides the direction in which the
sound lies.
The navigator is called to tie receiv-
or by a bell which records the receipt
Of sounds which, to the unaided ear,
would be inaudible. A special watch
is set going on the ringing of the in
gtrument and as soon as the sound
becomes audible in the machine the
watch is stopped and the distance is
shown without calculation. BY this
NEAR no vessel can steal away with
lights out without giving warning.
The system is based on the velocity of
sound carried by the Hertzian I've
