SYNOPSIS.

CT ,' TER bob Brownley creates Z
panic in Wall street. He is a friend of
Jim Randolph of Randolph g. Randolph,
bankers and brokers' BROMLEY and Ran
dolph had gone to college together and
entered the employ of Randolph's father
at the close of college days. BROMLEY
IL n Virginian by birth. Beulah Sands,
daughter of an old Virginia house, calls
on BROMLEY and tells him her father
has been practically ruined by the stock
operations of Reinhart. She hopes to
utilize her own money in Wall street in
retrieving her fathers fortunes before
his condition becomes known, and asks
for employment in the office that she may
have an opportunity to better understand
how her money is invested. She does not
want 1t used in a purely Wall street
gamble, but in the buying and selling of
legitimate securities. BROMLEY agrees to
help her, and falls in love with her.
CHAPTER II-Brownley plunEes in
sugar stock. He useS the money of Miss
Sands, his own and in addition IL backed
heavily by the Randolph millions. His
coup seems successful, and he tells Miss
Sands that she has cleared 81, SOC. ooo But
the market had not closec-
, CHAPTER 1II-Barry Conant, head
broker for Standard Oil and sugar in
terests, suddenly begins to sell sugar"
In the midst of a panic he breaks the
market and with its fall carries away
the earnings and much of the capital of
both Miss Sands and himself. A pretty
love scene occurs between the two at the
office when Bob attempts to tell her the
terrible truth of their fall. Brownley
takes . trip to Virginia.
CHAPTER IV-Beulah and Bob become
Engaged. Randolph wants to loan her
,father the money to meet his obligations.
She refuses. Bob figures on how to beat
Wall street at its own game. Sugar takes
lnnsther sensational squirt upward. but
BROMLEY keeps out.

all bounds Brownley steps into the pit and
begins to sell. He sells every share ''the

the price down and down until failures
are of momentary occurrence, and "thO
system" has lost millions. He has made
S~Auions for Beulah Sands and her father.

coming from the mouths OF their
hanging severed heads"
Bob BROMLEY laughed a horrible
ringing laugh as he uttered these aw-
full words. Then he beat his hand
down on my shoulders as he said in
hoarse voice, Jim, but for you I
should have had crimps in that jackal
philanthropist's soul by now and in
the souls of his kind. But never
mind. He will keep; he will surely
keep until 1 get to him. Every day
he lives he will be filter for the crimp-
ing. Within the short two years since
he finished grilling Judge Sands soul,
he has put himself in better form to
appreciate his reward. | see by the
press that at last his aristocratic wife
has gold-cured Newport of its habit
Of dating back the name Reinhart to
her scullionhood, and It has taken her
into the high-instep circle. / read the
other day of his daughters marriage
to some English mob, and of the dis
covery of the ancient Eeinhart family
tree and crest with the mailed hand
and twoedged dirk and the vulture
rampant, and the motto, Who strikes
in the back strikes often"
He left me with his laugh still ring
ing in my ears. shuddered as |
passed under the old black-and-gold
sign my uncle and my father had nail
ed over the office entrance in an age
now dead, an age when Wall street
men talked of honor and gold, not

penings | could not refrain from CIV
ing vent to the feelings that consum-
ed me. Kate, Bob will surely do
something awful one of these days.
l can see no hope for him. He grows
more and more the mailman as he
broods over his horrible situation.
The whole thing seems incredible to
me. Never was a human being in
such perpetual living purgatory-un-
limited, absolute power on the one
hand, unfathomable, never-cool-down
hell on the other"

TO STRENGTHEN BRIDGE.
Railroad Wants County to stand Half
the Cost

Bridgeport July IL. -- The joint
bridge board of Fairfield and New Ha-
ven counties, composed of the commits
sioners Of the two counties. met in the
office Of the Fairfield county court
house yesterday morning and talked
over the Washington bridge situation
with Engineer Hart Of New Haven, rep
resenting the Connecticut company, the
trolley Organization Of the CONSOLIDATE
ed railroad and Engineer Horace G..
Scoville of the joint commission.
Some time since the trolley company
intimated that the bridge ought to be
strengthened, If the heavy jumbo cars
were to be continued in use over it.
The company suggested that the coun-
ties pay one-half the expense and the
company would pay the other half, The
commissioners were not and are not
particularly favorable to any such
proposition. They say that the bridge
is strong enough and safe enough for
the ordinary traffic OF the two counties,
and If 1t is not strong enough for the
business OF the trolley company, the
latter should stand the expense OF
strengthening 1t.
1t was finally agreed after the dis
cussion that the Connecticut company
would submit in writing its proposition
to the Joint bridge commission, aud

TEACHERS TO nrAME.
Reason for Abandoning the Yale sum.
mer School

Reason for Abandoning the Yale Sum-
mer School.
The decision to drop the Yale Sum
mer school is unfortunate from the
university point of view, as Harvard
and Columbia conduct successful sum-
n1er schools. But Harvard and Colum-
bia both draw from large cities ana
from larger states than Connecticut.
The disappointment regarding the
school is not confined to Yale alone.
1t was expected that the plan would
work for the benefit Of Connecticut
education, and thus be the beginning
of what has long been desired-a new
start toward higher education in the
state.
The fault probably does not lie with
Yale or the courses given. 1t does lie
with the teachers, who neglected The
opportunity before them. The disap-
pointment is keener in the state board
of education and among the Lenders Of
the Collegiate Alumnae association of
| the teachers than at Yale. 1t aas Keen
from these sources that the most ear
nest efforts have been made To- obtain
the cooperation of the teachers to en-.
ter the Yale courses.
| In a still larger way the failure of
the Yale Summer school, owing to lack
of support among Connecticut teach
ers is interesting. Noticing ago a Wig
orous effort was under way to bring
about the establishment of a women's
college in Connecticut and an attempt
was made to secure part Of the nation
al endowment to that end, The plar
was under consideration in the early
winter to interest the state Legislature
in broadening the opportunities of the
| teachers for education. with the ides
j that the state might appropriate BIZ
ennial sum for that purpose, the money
to be used in paying to Trinity, Yves
leyan or Yale the tuition charges fol
such school teachers as desired sum
mer work.
Yale drops its courses for teachers
and the one chance for lettering state
educational conditions has been per
mitted TO lapse through lack Of inter
