the expression that they had waited

"By George, you don't mean It." ex-
claimed Murgatroyd, shifting his desk
with terrific force.
"You can bet your bottom dollar
that we do" returned Mixley.
1--WE waited for this for many
months" the prosecutor said grimEy.
He ordered his men to summon
Broderick and Thorne.
An hour later they made their APP
pearance. Murgatroyd passed over a
box of cigars.
Broderick lighted and, after putting
contentedly for time, commented:
Good cigars, these. Strikes me that
they're your first contribution to the
campaign fund, eh?" And. with a
wink at Murgatroyd, he asked:
''Any Challoner money in these?"
Murgatroyd smiled grimly.

Broderick nudged Thorne and re-
marked:
"Perhaps he's goin' to divvy"
Murgatroyd laughed.
I'm not going to divvy up, as you
call 1t, just yet-not j9st yet" he re-
piled pointedly,,
Broderick shit his eyes and digested
the reply.
Murgatroyd turned to Thorne.
II wanted to have a talk" he said
casually, with the man who owns
Cradlebaugh's."
Thorne looked about the room; then
he inquired innocently:
"He doesn't seem to have arrived as
yet. Where is he?"
Murgatroyd answered quietly:
"Oh, yes, he has. His name is Ora
ham Thorne."
Murgatroyd could see the pallor Of
rhorne's face turn to deeper white.
Thorne rose and said indignantly:
Say that again.

troyd. Il say that You are the hitherto
unknown owner Of the most notorious
gambling house within the state"
This is preposterousy' exclaimed
Ehorne.
Thorne took another tack.
"What evidence have you, should
Hike to know?" he said. "You can't
prove these things. Murgatroyd."
THAT" returned Murgatroyd, sis for
me TO worry about, not you. I'm go
ing on, and when I'm through you can
stake your last dollar that I'll know all
about this rotten system that you call
your organization from the most In
significant ward politician up to Peter

The accusing forefinger shifted from
Thorne to the county chairman, who
al at once felt that his courage was
slipping from him. 4

Murgatroyd laid down his pea and

"Thorne! Great Scott! never

MINISTER'S AND VICE.

What is the duty Of ministers of the
gospel with reference to vice? Tha
is a question that has long been de-
bated and will always be q subject for
difference of opinion. Many good peo-
pie were shocked some years ago when
DR.. Parkhurst, q leading Presbyterian
divine of New York, went through the
haunts of vice at night in that great
city and told the story of the degra-
datiOn and alluIements that brought
moral death to many men and Wo-
churches had no right to he blind and
Indifferent to the conditions or shame,
and he believed that if the facts were
brought home to the people reform
would cone. AS long as disease germs
are covered, they are an increasing
source of corruption. Turn the light
on them and the rays Of the sun de-
stroy the germs. Let vice be hidden
from view and it flourishes; let the
public know its existence in its true
light, and there will come improve
ment if the conscience of the commu-
nifty is not blunted.
There are som newspapers, which
never do anything to better public
conditions. that affect to be Profound
ly shocked if a Christian minister re-
Dukes the sins Of the community and
demands the determination Of the bril-
liant and the dingy hell-holes Of a
city. Is a minister to be silent when
he sees the Young being dragged into
the lei of her whose feet take hold
on hell? Is he TO preach to the
saints only of the beauties of a New
Jerusalem when his own community
n~courages those who would CONVEX
it into a hell? The Master took whip
cords and drove the money-changers
from the temple: He bade the woman
go and Sin no more" With emphasis
on reforma ion of life; and He was

Say, boys, let us whisper something

right, if you have time, to recall the

Don't think Of going into the raising
of tobacco as a business. The 'palmy

again can be realized as long as the
government is owned and controlled
by trusts as it is today. If you raise
tobacco YOU must sell it to the Amer
