The Rexall Americanitis Elixir is ton
ic nerve food composed chiefly of free
Phosphorus, Glycophosphates, Iron Pyro-

The wonderful results of this remedy tire
due to the fact that it supplies Phosphor-
Gus to the nerve cells in a. condition in
which it can be Immediately and easily
taken up by them.
The Carbohydrates. actual nerve-tis-

The Iron Pyrophosphates are the most

CHAPTER XIV.
The Secret

AURICE, after leaving Crampiron, went
directly to the house. 1t was long
time since he had been seen there.
He was going straight to find Milliccnt,
when he met her coming down stairs
She was quite willing to be ELUSIVE;
but Maurice would have none Of it.
He asked absently after his mother,
who had gone to bed, and after Emile
Berger, who had gone to Paris On
family business; and then he said:
Norah's here, isn't She
Why, Maurice" Millicent ex-
claimed What is the matter, You
are crying! What has happened.'
- he SAID abruptlv Is Norah here

Shortly afterward he accdentlv dropped his lamp,
which went out, and though he searched carefully,
it eluded him He decided to go forward in the
dark.
When the spiral ended he felt a door, which
yielded to his push, and holding his hands out
stretched and apart, he entered what he knew must
be room of some sort. There not a ray of
light, nor the least sound. He hesitated Suddenly
he lowered his right and drew his revolver.
He had heard a noise 1t might have been breath,
sigh, click, tick, scratch. 1t repeated.
1t required frequently, at irregular intervals, long
and Short but always exceedingly faint. MauriCe's
mind ran away to the hall of his club and the tape
machines therein. He comprehended. message
was being sent somehow from somewhere into the
summit of the statue lnstnCtively he stepped back
and his fingers touched knob which he recognized
as an electric witch The next moment he had
flooded the plac with light.
During the space of perhaps three pulse beats
he mystified. He saw huge chamber, roughly
spherical in shape, and gathered that he in the
head OF the statue, Just underneath the pointed
crown of the great goddess of Energy at more than
twice the height of the highest elm tops. He saw
in the midst large table, which
slowly revolving on cylinder under a pencil that
descended and irregularly struck the paper. He
saw IN a corner tremendous series OF electrical
accumuators. Yet the table and its contents were
completely isolated The apparatus licked away,
unconnected with anything whatever.
Then he understood The solution of the enigma
of the statue swept him. And he wondered,
he amazed that he had never before thought of
explanation obvious The statue a
wireless telegraph station! Hence its height.
Hence the crown, with its metal points: Hence
the ineXpcable leakage of electricity from the
electric light plant; doubtless the main cable to
the house had been tapped for the supply of the
accumuators. Hence the bell and coil and box
in his fathers bed room! Why had it occurred to
that the statue wireless telegraph
station in dsguse?
The cylinder ceased to revolve. and there was a
silence. He approached the table. Yes, there
the battery, the relay the ticker, the tuning
wings, and the surprisingly ingenious coherer. He
remembered having illustrations of such things
in American magazine. Everything fine,
fragile and marvelously adjusted His father
might have been depended upon to have-t the most
perfect installation that wealth and enthusiasm
could achieve His tremendous admiration for his
father broke out anew in his mind. What an
imagination, what audacty in conception, what
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1907-09-29

an incredible patience in execution, that man had
had! As a hnancier Of European activities he had
seen the possibilities of wireless teegraphy his
business. And he had also how those posi-
bites would be multiplied if the thing could be
maintained an absolute secret. How to erect
station with the altitude Of several hundred feet
necessary for long distance work, without pro-
claiming at to the whole earth the exact
nature of the enterprise? To that question the idea
of heroic statue was the reply. Carl Courander
had made only one mistake in his career; but that
mistake capital He had trusted Slade
Beakbane
Maurice tore the paper off the cylinder and tried
to declpher the dotted message. The little red
code book close at hand. He translated the
message into letters; but the letters would not
form themselves into recognizable words of any
language that Maurice even dstantly acquainted
with. cipher, of counsel And in the second part
of the book he discovered the key to the cipher.
In few minutes he had reduced to sense, and the
to which he reduced it constituted not the
least of the excitatons through which he had passed
that day. The message, which was in German read:
BEAKBANE.-Agreed. Will destroy, your station at
midnight. STRAUSS Berlin.
The statue was therefore in communication with
Berlin. 1t might indeed be in communication with
half dozen centers. And the curious thing
that though those centers might be aware to whom
they talking they might be totally unaware of
the situation and the physical peculiarites of this
center in Bedfordshire. The apparatus might be
fulfilling all its functions, and yet preserve its
secrecy!
Destroy your station!" What could that mean?
1t certainly a reply to a request from Beak-
bane As Maurice deliberated, his eye caught
thin wire that went out from the apparatus to box
on a corner of the table And he remembered that
guncotton could be exploded by wireless telegraphy.
Was it imaginable that the miserable Beakbane had
finished with the statue and meant to appease
the grudge which he undoubtedly had against
Maurice by arranging to blow the head off the
statue? The trick feasible one, and Maurice
felt that Beakbane was perfectly capable of sinking
to the level of matter what meanness.
His glance roamed the table. And there
near the strange box was the still stranger instr-
ment which had figured so startlngly at Campirons
trial Its similarity to the steel of Carfax struck
Maurice at OF course it the key to the

ROBINSON SHOWS PAY LICENSE.
Enrich the City Treasury to Extent of
Two Hundred and Fifteen Dollars.

After haggling about for three days
the Ro binSon shows came to time and
paid $215 license money to H. Ward
Page, license collector. One hundred
dollars was paid under protest be-
cause the show management claimed
that they had but one ring while the
city charged them for three rings and
one sideshow. The charge is 500 for
one ring and fifty dollars additional for
each added ring. The SIS is for the
side show. First a threat was made
that no parade would be given but ev
erything was finally amicably settled.
Each show that comes to town,
however, plays havoc with the pave
ment.
Both John Rodgers, city engineer,
and Frank Snyder, street commission
er, were aroused at the way the brick
pavement on East Eighth avenue was
being damaged by heavy circus dray
wagons.
Parade or no parade circus manage
ments will probably have to pay Ii
censes in the future.
Acting Mayor Hughes said this
morning that he was in favor of the
drafting of an ordinance Immediately
taking the Fair Grounds into the city
and making it possible to exact liz
cense fee whether the circus manage
ment gave a parade or hot. Another
circus which is scheduled to arrive
next month does mot give a parade
and the ordinance will be prepared to
catch it before the tents are up.
