As Mcnamara looked into the angry
eyes Of the lean faced men beyond the
grating he felt that the game was
growing close, and his blood tfngled at
the thought He had not planned on a
resistance so strong and swift, but be
would meet It. He knew that they
hungered for his destruction and that
Glenister was their leader. He saw
further that the mans hatred now
stared at him openly for the first time
He knew that back Of it was some
thing more than love for the dull
metal over which they wrangied, and
then q thought came to him.

alone. or did you wait till you saw

AT the same instant he opened a door
Behind him, revealing Helen Chester.

Miss Chester This man might-weIl,
you're safer here, you know. You'll
pardon me for leaving you" He hoped
he could incite the young man to some
rash act or word in the presence of
the girl and counted on the conspicu-
GUS heroism Of his own position, fac
ing the mob single handed, one against
fifty.

iy, upon whom the insult and the sight
of the girl in the receivers company
had acted powerfully
"Of course I'll come out, but l don't
want this young lady to suffer any vio-
lence from your friends" said McNa-
mara. Il am not armed, but l have
the right to leave here unmolested-
the right of an American citizen .
With that he raised his arms above
his head "Out of my wayr' he cried.
Morehouse opened the gate, and Nc

have open-work tops, and these are. to
some minds, so suggestive of open

is welcomed, and this is found in the
gloves that have the tops decorated

effective and becoming, particularly to
with the ever-popular open-work or
eyelet embroidery. The effect is very
good, and usually in harmony with
some part of the gown. though it is
not necessary that it should match any
other embroidery there may be. The
fabric gloves cling to the arm more
closely than kid. yet that need not
prevent one wearing the very attrac-
tive armlets sold for the purpose of
preventing the gloves from slipping

Of fearlessness. Moreover, it is safer
TO face a crowd thus than a single ad-
versary.
Mcnamara had seen this psycholog-
ical trick tried before and now took adj
vantage of it to walk through the press
slowly, eye to eye. He did it theatric-
ally, for the benefit of the girl, and. as
he foresaw, the men fell away before
him-all but GleniSter, who blocked
him, gun in hand. 1t was plain that
the prosecuted miner was beside him
self with passion. Mcnamara came
within an arms length before pausing.
Then he stopped, and the two stared
Indignantly at each other. while the
girl behind the railing heard her heart
pounding IN the stiffness. Glenister
raised his hand uncertainty, then let it
fall. He shook his head and stepped
aside, so that the other brushed past
and out into the street.
Wheaton addressed the banker:

and writs of one kind or another from

over to u.s." He showed the papers to-
ward the other. Were not in a mood

Morehouse looked carefully at the

KNITTING FANCIEs.

Up to fifty years ago, the family
stockings. underwear and skirts were
in large measure, knit by the thrifty
mother of the family, assisted by the
girls-little girls. too-for the girl who
had not "pieced a quilt" and learned
to knit her own stockings by the time
she was five years old was considered
extraordinarily stupid
With the advent Of the knitting ma
chine knitting fell into disuse. Now
only a few stockings are knitted by
hand. but the art of knitting and it's
kindred crocheting, once almost lost,
is fast regaining favor.
People have learned that while ma
chine-made garments are all very we'll
for some things, that there are other
fields to which the machine-made gar
ment cannot aspire.
No machine-made jacket for the
baby ever looks like the one grandma
makes; nor will it either wash or wear
so well. The little boughten slippers
may look very well when first from the
shop, but test them with soap and
water. and note the result.
Then there are a thousand and one
things to be made, which cannot be
purchased anywhere. and there is
nothing like knitting and crocheting
for pickup work; work which can be
done in those idle moments between
daylight and dark, or the long, quiet
afternoons in the porch chair. when
we are visiting with our dearest
friend
We are giving here a few hints Of
some of the things which may be made
in these leisure moments. any of which
will make most acceptable gifts. or will
add materially to our own possessions.

CHAPTER XII

- LENISTER had said that the
judge would not dare to dis
obey the mandates Of the cir
~ cult court of appeals, but he
was wrong. Application was made for
orders directing the enforcement Of
the writs, steps which would have re-
stored possession of the Midas to its
owners as we'll as possession of the
treasure in bank, but StiIlman refused
to grant them.
Wheaton called a meeting Of the
Swedes and their attorneys, advising a
junction of forces. Dextry, who had
returned from the mountains, was
present. When they had finished their
discussion, he said:
''It seems like can always fight bet
ter when 1 know what the other fell
ler's game is. I'm going to spy on
that outfit"
We've had detectives at work for
weeks" said the lawyer for the Sean
dinavians. but they can't find out
anything we don't know already"
Dextry said no more, but that night
found him busted in the building ad-
Joining the one wherein McNamara had
his Office. He had rented back room
on the top floor and with the help of
his partner sawed through the ceiling
into the loft and found his way thence
to the roof through a hatchway. For
tunately, there was but little space be-
tween the two buildings. and further
more each boosted the square fronts
common in mining camps. which pre-
jected high enough to prevent observa
ton from across the way. Thus he
was enabled. without discovery, to gain
the roof adjoining and to cut through
into the loft. He crept cautiously in
through the opening. and out upon a

then lit a candle. and locating Nc

which had arrived in port. He was TO
institute proceedings for contempt OF
court, and it was hoped that by ex-
traordinary effort he could gain quick
| action.
| At daybreak Dextry returned to his
post, and it was midnight before he
crawled from his hiding place to see
the lawyer and Glenister.

Last weeks ufficfai statement of the
New York associated banks showed quite
unprecedented changes. compared with
those that have been recorded in recent
weeks, the loans indicating a moderate
contraction instead of almost unprece-
cant change III place of a more or lees
large augmentation and the surplus a
slight gain, where previously the increase
had been heavy. This exhibit of baut
conditions seems TO Indicate that the In
fluences which have recently been opera
tive to create a more normal situation
have ceased to be exerted and that now
that they have apparently spent their
force we may look for comparatively fes-
tureless exhibits i'm the near future. The
cash gain shown by the weeks statement
was Sl46, 900. instead OF a loss of about
one and quarter millions. as was esti-
mated upon the basis of the traceable
movements of money. which loss was ex-
pected TO be indicated as the result of
Withdrawals of funds by country banks.
The general deposits decreased 1sS0. 800.
rejecting chiefly a contraction of sl.5S7.-
300 in loans. The required reserve against
such deposits was s4s5, $50. which sum. to-
gether with the gain in cash, as above
made s641 $50 as the increase in surplus
reserve to sl7,34s775. COMPUTED upon the
basis of deposits. less those of s3l Gas. COZ
