SYNOPSIS.

Chapter bob Brownley creates q
panic in Wall street He is friend OF
Jim Randolph Of Randolph & Ran
dolph, bankers and brokers. Brownley
and Randolph had gone to college to-
gether and entered the employ Of Ran
dolph's father at the close Of college
days. Brownley is Virginian by
birth. Beulah Sands, daughter Of an
old Virginia house, calls on Brownley
and tells him her father has been
practically ruined by the stock oper-
ations Of Reinhart. She hopes to util-
ize 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 invest
ed. She does not want Ii used in q
purely Wall street gamble, but in the
buying and selling Of legitimate Sc
curities. Brownley agrees to help her,
and falls In love with her.
Chapter ll-Brownley plunges in
sugar stock. He uses the money OF
Miss Sands, his own and I'm addition
Is backed heavily by the Randolph
millions. His coup seems successful,
and he tells Miss Sands that she has
cleared $1,S00.000. But the market
had not closed.
Chapter Ill-Barry Conant, head
broker for Standard Oil and sugar in
terests. suddenly begins to sell sugar"
In the midst of 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 a trip to Vir-
ginia-

so that his back was half toward me.

heard an indescribaDle fluttering rush

done that a woman had answered her

could not learn. l had tried once or
twice to draw him out, under pretense
Of insisting upon his accepting my
\ wifes invitation to dine with us. He
always had ready excuse for me to
take to Kate, but that was all. Appar-
emily he had no idea that took any
interest in his movements after busi-
ness hours.
AS for Beulah Sands, there was but
ever a footstep stopped in front Of her
Office she looked up from her work
with an expectant, almost appealing
gaze, as though she were always walt
ing for some one. I had not seen Bob
in her office since that disastrous
Sugar day, and as he went directly to
the exchange every morning and left
there every afternoon without return
ing to the office, doing all his business
by messenger or over the wire, there
was but little chance OF his meeting
her.
November 1st had come and gone,
and the books showed no change in
Beulah Sands account There was
the poor little $4,000 balance; no
other entries. One afternoon Beulah
Sands had asked for meeting be-
tween Bob and myself in her office.
She could hardly have asked Bob to
come without me, but l knew 1t was

but you don't quite understand my

He would not relieve his suffering al

a hundred times more acute. You
cannot understand the old-fashloned
deep-rooted pride Of the Sands"
But can you not, at least tempo

have arranged the relief?"
Her big blue eyes stared at me in
bewilderment.

CHAPTER w.

The following week Bob returned to
the ofice. He had not changed, and
yet he had changed greatly. Rest had
apparently done much for him. His
color was good, his step elastic as OF
old, and his head was thrown back as
IL he were buckled up for the fray and
wanted all to know 1t. Yet there was
something in the eye, in the setness OF
the jaw, in the hair-trigger calm, yet
fiercely savage grip in which he closed
his strong hands on the arms Of his
chair. that told me more plainly than
words that this was not the optimistic,
soft-hearted Bob Brownley I had
known and loved. l could not help
feeling that II had been leader Of
the Russian terrorists, and this man
who now sat before me had come to
my ken when l was selecting bomb
throwers, should have seized upon
him Of all men as the one to stalk the
czar or his marked minions. Surely
the iron that had entered Bob's soul
week before had affected his whole be-
ing. 1 think Beulah Sands had some
such thoughts. For l saw a shadow
Of perplexity cross her broad, low fore
head after her first meeting with him,
a shadow that had not been there
before.
For days after Bob's return / saw
little of him. think Beulah Sands
saw less. During stock exchange hours
he spent most Of his time on the floor,
but he executed few Of our orders. He
merely looked them over and handed
them out to his assistants. AS far as
/ could learn, he spent much of his
time there yesterdaying through
hopes graveyards, a not uncommon
pastime for active exchange members
whose first through specials have been
open switched by the System" tower
man. So strong had become this habit
of going about from pole to pole with
bent head and q far-off gaze that his
fellow members began to humor and
respect II. They all knew that Bob
had gone up against the Sugar panic
hard. No one knew how hard, but all
guessed from his changed appearance
and habits that 1t must have been a
ne-smashing blow. Nothing ST
quickly and so deeply stirs a stock ex-
change mans feelings for his brother
member as to know that "They" have
ditched his FL Dorado dyer-that is, II
he has been a good fellow. They will
humor his every whim and patiently
await the day when he shall be again
in normal condition; for all stock
gamblers whom Fate, or the old hag's
hunchback twin, the System" has
dumped, either remain below the sur
face or eventually round to. Every

CHINESE TIME STICKS.
Each One Will Burn Throughout
Period of Twelve Hours.

PERIOD OF I"oiNo E'o"s
The Chinese have several contri-
yances for keeping the time OF day.
The water clock has often been de-
scribed. but the use Of burning sticks
Is less familiar, says Youths Compan-
ion. These are described by Colonel
Bridges in his book. Round the World
in Six Months"
We bought a small bundle Of time
sticks. The sticks each OF whicn is
80 inches long, are used, as their name
implies, for the purpose OF measuring
time. For use by day some are espe-
cially made, while others for service oy
night are particularly constructed
Each burns during a period or twelVe
hours. OF these King Alfred's can
dies" as some Of our party termed
them. we bought two, and from print
ed circular or advertisement wnich
was at the same time handed 10 us py
the man who sold them we learned the
following particulars:
The materials Of which these time
measuring sticks are Inaue are pie
pared according to the directions OF
the official or imperial astronomers or
astroIogers. The duration of each
time stick is adjusted according to the
clepsydra, or water clock. so that the
time which It indicates when burning
may be regarded as correct.
Time sticks which are manufactured
to mark the hours Of the day must be
lighted at day dawn, when the lines
on the palm Of the hand are just Wis
ible, while those which are constructed
to mark the hours of the night must
be lighted at dusk, when the lines on
the palm Of the hand are not discern

be placed In a perpendicular position.

recommended the installation Of and
use Of solid steel passenger coaches on

periments on Eastern lines, steel cars
reduce the cost Of maintenance about
one half. Their safety in wrecks

mendntion.

steel cars will be used. Z"
Steel box cars were also recommend
ed.
The officials are discussing today

The old and one time famous Ma lone mining district has taken a new lease of life. The mill which has Leen standing idle for years is to be repaired for the purpose of making number of tests to determine the best, cheapest and most economical method of treating the silver and gold ores of the district. The Messrs. Sinclair and Shedd, of Battle Creek, Mich, have the matter in charge and are now on the ground directing and supervising affairs. The mining field centering in the immedla'e vicinity of Malone is rated as a promising and rich min- eral bearing locality. The judgment of many who have visited the dis trict being that the one thing neces- sary to make d prominent and pro- ductive mining camp is intelligent and judicious development.-Inde- pendent.
