The fumes Of tobacco and opium
were heavy on the air, and a moment
later we came on q cluster OF small
rocms or dens, fitted with couches and

Americans in London.

London. Nov. 29.-Americans in
London held number of dinners,
receptions and other functions in
celebration Of Thanksgiving day.
But the most interesting Of all, per-
haps. was the dinner given by the
Five O'clock club, every article OF
the menu coming from across the
water. The turkey came from Rhode
Island, the mince pies from Boston,
the sherry from California and so on
through the list.

Of the Wolf livid, distorted with an
ger, fear and brutal passions.
"Doddridge Knapp" / exclaimed.
and gave a step forward.
II flashed on me that one mystery
was explained. l had found out why
the Doddridge Knapp Of plot and coun-
terplot, and the Doddirdge Knapp who
was the generous and confidential en-
ployer, could dwell in the same body.
The King OF the Street was a slave OF
the Black Smoke, and, like many an
other, went mad under the influence
Of the subtle drug.
AS moved forward, Luella chung to
me and gave a low cry. The Wolf
figure threw one malignant look at US
and was gone.
Take me home, oh, take me homei"
cried Luella in low suppressed tones,
trembling and halffalling. / put my
arm about her to support her.
"What is it?" l asked.
She leaned upon me for one mo
ment, and the black walls and gloomy
passage became a palace filed with
flowers. Then her strength and reso-
luton returned and she shook herself
free.
Come; let us go back TO the 9TH

Certainly" / replied. They ought
to be here by this time"
But as we turned a sudden cry
sounded as Of an order given. There
was a bang of wood and a click OF
metal, and as we looked we saw that
unseen hands had closed the way TO
our return. A barred and iron-bound
door was locked in our faces.

Race Suicide Stirs Roosevelt.

An article in a recent number of the
Review of Reviews by DR.. Cronin on
Doctor in the Public School," up
holding small families, has drawn from
President Roosevelt a letter to DIR. Shaw,
editor of the Review of Reviews, protest.
ing against such teaching. DR.. Cronin
makes the statement that physical defects
go hand in hand with large families.
whether of the rich Or of the poor, but
this the president says is not true. Ir
proof of his position the president points
out the fact that athletes are most apt
to be found in fair-sized families, and he
points to the vital statistics of Massa-
chusetts showing that the average Amer
lean family has so few children that the
birth rate has fallen below the death
rate. He r%eiterates his belief that TIE
tendency of well-to-do families to die
out means the elimination instead of the
survival of the ~fittest, and he declares
that our country could not continue to
exist if it paid heed to the expressed or
implied teachings of such articles, which
furnish excuse for every unnatural pre-
vention of child bearing, and for every
form of gross and shallow selfishness in
American social life.

Bond Thefts Now $500, 600.

Later details of the bond robbery Of
the Trust Company of America came to
light through the examination of Loan
Clerk Douglass confederate, Broker Den
nett. 1t was found that the actual value
of the bonds taken was not less than
SSO0,0OO, and that Douglass had laid
aside 100000 more for convenient alb.
sLaction on the morning that suspicion
caused his sudden departure. Douglass
and his associates had raised about $780,
900 in cash and loans on the stolen col
lateral. 1t was admitted by the trust
company officials that they had paid out
$16o,OO0 to recover most of the bonds
which had been placed with various brok.
ers, and that the actual loss would be
$4,000, considering the $4,000 bond of
the loan clerk. The effort to connect a
prominent Boston man with the deal was
not successful, although it was believed
that a third party assisted in the nego
tiations.
