Synopsis of Chapters Already Published

Rev. Philip Morton, head Of ST. Chris
topher's Mission, in New York, is found
dead, and his friend, David Aldrtch, Is
summoned to take charge Of his personal
affairs.
In going through the dead clergyman's
papers David makes a surprising ana
terrible discovery. He finds that Nor
ton has been blackmailed by a woman
named Lillian Drew, who has threatened
to reveal a liasion of his college days;
that he has taken 5000 from charity
fund to silence her; and that, his sud
den death was probably case OF sui
eide in despair.
So shocking a revelation Of the weak
ness of a man who has been the moral
prop of his people threatens to undo the
whole work of Morton's life in building
up ST. Christopher's Mission as power
for good in the worst quarter of the great
city. David determines to Keep It Sc
cret at any cost. First he visits Lillian
Drew and forces her to surrender pack
age of letters from Morton. Then, as
he has no money Of his own, he goes
to Alexander Chambers, rich banker
whose daughter, Helen Chambers, Is deep

bers at his office, David seeks Mr.. Had
don, the treasurer OF the mission; but he.

Going to ST. Christopher's, Aldrtch finds
Miss Chambers and Mr.. Haddon there.
1ae latter has discovered that Morton
withdrew the missing IS. 900 from the bank
and is making an investigation. in this
emergency, with the hideous secret on
the point Of discovery, David can see no
way to prevent the disclosure except 10
take the guilt upon himself; and he de-
clares that 1t was he who took the money.

EXPLODING TORPEDO
HURTS SMALL BOY
Seven Year : Old M orrie
Hazel Strikes One With :
an AK.

Seven-year-old Morris Hazel is today
the youngest member of that ancient
order made up largely of people who
pour kerosene on fires, look down gun
barrels, rock boats, and do kindred
things.
Morris badge of membership Is big
burn on his forehead, and his initiation
came this morning. when he pounded
on a railroad torpedo, just to see what
was init.
Just about the time Morris mamma,
with whom he lives at 1222 Duncan
street northeast, was calling him to
wash his face and say his golden text
before starting for Sunday school, Nor
ris was out in the back alley, looking
at a round, shiny tin thing.
He didn't know that it was a railroad
torpedo. Morris took II into the wood
shed and stood looking at it. No; he
wasn't going to let any tin box hide
anything from him-not while the fam
lily ak was standing in the corner.
So Morris got the ak, and bending
down real close over the shiny tin disk,
struck 1t a blow. In a minute he was
woeful, fearful full-fiedged member
of the ancient order.
Morris mamma wouldn't let him be
taken to the hospital, and DR.. D. w,
Higgins put some cool lotion on his
head and bound up the wound.
But Morris, kept home from Sunday
school, isn't going TO be Joiner any
more.

The state of Colorado during the
past two years has experienced de-
gree of substantial growth in popula-
tion and wealth, which has never been
equalled in its entire history. The last
census taken by the United States gov
ernment gives an increase in its popu-
lation over that of 1900 of 100000. or
5000 per annum. Increases in agri-
cultural and horticultural crops have
been enormous, while the state still
holds the record of producing more
minerals than any other state in the
Union. The estimate of the total
wealth of the state of Colorado is
placed at the enormous figure of ST.
500. 900, 900.
