in this city for several days past was
intensified today when a series of four
games between the two leaders of the
league. New York and Chicago, was
inaugurated. With New but 20 points
alb cad of Chicago. it would be possible
for the westerners to Gust the New
Workers from the leading position by
winning all four of the games. Two
games were scheduled to be played
today one Wednesday and one Thurs
day. The weather was fair.
The Chicago champions inflicted
setback to the local team by taking
both games of today's doubleh eader.
This reduced New ork's lead in the
pennant race to six points. McGinnity
was called in in both games as re-
leving pitcher and Brown was also
seen in both games, saving the first
by his clever work when the home
players were hitting overall to good
advantage.

PERSIAN FRONTIER IN TURMOIL
Russia Lands Troops to Protect Her
Rights.

Tihis.-The situation on the Persian
frontier arising from the activity of
marauding Kurds has not materially
improved. The Persian bandits again
concentrated in force yesterday and
renewed their attack against Belesu-
var. The Russians countered with
energy, and their artillery bombarded
several villages in which the brigands
had taken refuge. The Russian COM
mander has orders to dispense and
entirely wipe out the bands.
The foreign Office at st. Petersburg
is keenly interested in Russia's little
frontier war in Persia. 1t is the first
occasion to raise for the active appli-
cation of Russia's rights under the
Anglo-Russian agreement to endeavor
to preserve order in northern Persia
The operations themselves are consid-
cred of minor Importance, and they
will quickly come to an end as soon
as the subsistence of floods permit the
movement of Russian detachments
Russia counts upon the support of
Great Britain and no interference by
any other power.

is again on the threshold of another
epidemic of this disease, which rem
ders 90 per cent of those attacked
cripples for life.
Similar to Spinal Meningitis.
During last years epidemic more
than 1000 cases were under observa-

estimated that 80 per cent of the pa
tients were permanently crippled.
Infantile paralysis is similar in many
respects to spinal meningitis. The adj
vance symptoms are the same and the
diseases are believed to be related.
Although seldom causing death, in
fantile paralysis is held by physicians
to be one of the most terrible diseases
with which humanity is a icted.
DR.. j. f. Terriberry, who is in
charge of the clinic of the New York
Hospital for Crippled Children, and a
pioneer in the investigation, declared
that 60 per cent of the cripples in the
world were made such by infantile
paralysis.

CHAPTER TX

Hardly had NJ. Alfred Cassagne swal-
lowed the last mouthful of his breakfast,
than his active mind reverted again to
the mystery which yet surrounded the
death of Nine. Roupell.
Who was the man, at present unknown,
who had crept like a thief in the night
into the chateau, and as quietly stolen
away when his foul work had been ac-
complished? And what was his motive in
committing the crime? Was he in any
way connected with NJ. Chabot? Could
1t be possible that the project of police
had stumbled on the real instigator of
the murder in the person of Chabot, and
that this unknown person was his con-
federate? Most likely at that moment,
some officer from the prefecture was en-
gagged in closely watching Chabot's slight
est movements. There might be some
thing In the projects theory, after all.
Mature reflection convinced M. Cassagne
that it would not do to dismiss it with
a mere shrug of the shoulders. Chabot's
accomplice might be the man they were
looking for. Anyhow, it would not do to
leave the point uncovered.
II must write at once" he said pres
emily, ''to Cliquot. Cliquot is my assist
ant. We must have him keep watch of
M. Cassagne wrote out series of in
structions, particularly cautioning his as
sistant to keep track of M. Chabot, and
under no circumstances, If he ran across
any of the people from the prefecture, to
let them really know who he was. Then
he appeared to be engrossed In thought.
He rubbed his hands violently together,
as if he would impart activity to his
brain by the friction. He arose thrust
back his chair, and began to walk rapidly
up and down the room, stopping occasion
ally to examine the pictures on the walls,
with the eye of critic.
'Madame's husband left her very well
off, I should judge" he remarked at last.
Very" replied DIR. Mason.

window, for | saw him doing it. If any
one had passed through that opening he
would surely have discovered it,
The project is doubtless a good Off
Ger" replied Cassagne, but if he had
looked closer, he would have seen that in
climbing through the window the man
rushed the dust off this geranium leaf
with his coat"
The doctor bent down and placed the
leaf indicated alongside one that had not
been touched. The truth of the detec-
tives discovery became then convincing.
One was covered with dust, the other had
been swept partly clean. NJ. Cassagne
smiled with pardonable pride, and, saying
that he had for the present nothing fur
Their to examine in the bed chambers, led
the way down stairs, first of all, however
replacing, carefully, the seals which he
had removed
Taking his hat from the rack in the
hail. and inviting DR.. Mason to accom-
pany him, he passed quickly around to
the rear of the chateau. A man servant
was shaking some carpets on the back
lawn. He ordered him to bring a ladder,
and, placing it against the wall of the
chateau, assembled it nimbly.
II thought so,' he called down to the
doctor. ''I'he ladder will bear two of us.
Come up, please"
What is it this time?" inquired Ma
son, craning his neck so as to be on a
level with the window SILL
Cassagne directed the physicians at
tention to a slight abrasion of the stone
THAT was caused by the mans shoe
when he leaped from the sill,' he explain
ed.
'But where did he leap TOT" inquired
the doctor. This window is twenty feet
from the ground, at least Even if he
had been in his stocking feet he must
have left some impression, and you say
he had shoes ON
HE reached the ground another way
that is ALL" replied Cassagne. Most
likely he jumped into that tree. Let's
see If it is possible"
With the agility of a sailor ascending
the rigging of a vessel, he climbed up
the rest of the ladder, and stepped on to
the window sill. After measuring the
distance with his eye for a few moments
he said
1T was a desperate leap for man
to take in the night time; but recollect,
he was a desperate fellow"
Then gathering himself together. and
exerting his enormous muscular strength,
he sprang from the window. A project
ing bough nearly a dozen feet away was
his objective point. He caught it, and
with the agility of a trapezist passed
hand over hand down to the trunk. AS
he swung himself around the branch his
eye fell upon a small, glittering object
stuck fast in the fork of the tree. He
picked it up, and slid rapidly down to
the ground, where the doctor was await
ing him. Placing in the physicians hand
a small gold locket, the detective ex-
claimed in a delighted voice:
I'm have him-I'll find him now, if 1
have to hunt for him all over France"
Just then one of the servants approach
ed 1T was twelve o'clock. Would the
gentlemen like BREAKFAST"
1.-The gentlemen will have some break
fast by all MEANS" replied M. Cassagne.
Our labor has been immense. our reward
ought to be proportionate,' and the ply
stefan led the way. and together they
passed into the chateau.

General Demand

OF the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its CON-
ponent parts are known to them TO be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex.
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir Of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup OF Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.
