Dear relatives and friends: Since it
was announced through the Herald that
had been so fortunate as to spend my
vacation in my native state. 1t has been
my desire to in some way express my
many thanks to each relative and friend
by whose efforts spent the happiest
vacation of my life. Now, that l have
enjoyed the trip and am safe at home
again, will ask the Editor Of the Her
aid for column in his paper and take
advantage of this opportunity to thank
the many friends who are very dear to
me. It had been my intentionlto write
each personal letter, but owing to the
busy time through the grain and cotton
season, will not have an opportunity.

The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1911-10-20

Mr.. Gilman lived between Fifth and Madison ave-
nues, in a mansion Of white stone. the door of which
was opened by a butler in livery. Leaving their coats
and hats with this butler. til cold man Immediately led
him into the library, where he ordered luncheon to be
served.
"Ah," he murmured as he sank YEARLY into a large
cushioned chair, "here at last is peace and quiet. My
dear friend, you don't know what it means to have you
with me-"
"Im very glad to be here" said Ferdy nervously. He
was looking at the s%umptuous furnishings and wonder
ing what use could be made Of them in the socialistic
tracts that he planned.

ever pulled off without. some nerves being snapped and
some sleep being lost. But this" he added. as the
butler appeared with the consomme, lis one Of the
things that give US strength"
He ate with relish. Ferdy doing the same; but the
young mans heart was beating wildly. Mr.. Gilman's
last speech was a confession that some big deal was
about to be made and he could scarcely contain HIM
self, SO fearful was he that the facts would never be
told. Presently, however, his hopes were raised. When
the meal was nearly ended Mr.. Gilman turned to him
and asked: what is your opinion of P. and G."
Ferdy. passing the napkin meditatively across his
mouth. replied that nobody seemed to know.
That's It, that's what I noticed all along" said Mr..
Gilman.
That's why there's been so little trading in it-no-
body knew which way it would go"
"Precisely-until now. But yesterday" The
troubled look returned to MI. Gilman's face and his

This put an, end to her remonstrance, for however

she was content that Ferdy should handle their moral
ones.
The very next day he met Mr.. Gilman on the street.
The old gentleman, witt, his silk hat and fur overcoat.
was moving toward his automobile, when Ferdy, who
arranged to be passing. met him face to face.
"Ah, my young friend" said MI. Gilman with his
characteristic lack of ~constraint, coming from lunch, |

"No," replied Ferdy, 81 don't lunch for half an
hour
"'That's fortunate, very fortunate indeed. You can

"The fact is" he said, after expressing his gratitude,
tive an appointment at two"
Cant you postpone it? You'd be doing me a favor
a very great favor-if you did" Nh. Gilman glanced
~furtively about, as though fearing to be overheard, and
his manner awoke vague suspicious in his companions
mind. "The fact is, I want company. There's some
thing bothering ne-something l can't talk about; and
I want somebody to divert me"
Ferdy. his heart beating rapidly, looked at his COM
panion's face. It had a troubled look. His eye then
travelled downward to the hand that held the heavy.
knobbed cane, and the sharpness of the veins attested
the intensity of his grip. What was up he had no idea,
but it was clearly his business to find out. Accordingly
he fastened to a nearby pay-station, and emerging,
joined Mr.. Gilman in the automobile. Home" said
the old gentleman to the chauffeur.
They sped rapidly uptown. As they passed through
the drifting crowd on Broadway, congested still more
by the cars with their Changing bells and the vehicles
with their crunching wheels, Ferdy planned his cam
paign. He would make no advance. To do so would
show his hand, would arouse his companions sus-
picions: he would. instead, let events take their own
course and trust to Mr.. Gilman's inclination to talk.
The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1911-10-20

He was about sixty, very tall and thin with ~iron-eray
hair and a soldierly bearing, but, although he looked
severe. his manner was exceedingly genial. He was
glad to meet Ferdy, he said-men of the journalistic
profession, although they were often annoying in their
efforts to interview him, were useful and important
factors in civic life. At the FIRST opportunity Ferdy
and Lily exchanged glances which said that the initial
steps had been successfully taken.
The later steps were taken with equally good results.
Not only did Dudley Gilman like Ferdy's company,
but he Immediately took him into his confidence, telling
him how he began life as a grocery boy in Utica, how
he saved his pennies. came. to New York and rose by
steady degrees. Ferdy said: THAT would make a splen-
did article, Mr.. Gilman. Would you mind If I used it,"
The old man laughed. "You reporters are. wonder
full chaps" he said. But he found no: reason for re-
fusing and the article was written. It appeared in one
of the Sunday papers and Mr.. Gilman, whom Ferdy
again met a few days later at Lily's studio. praised him
for It very highly. you've true literary ability, Mr..
Hicks" he said. ut won't be long. I'm sure, before
your career as a mere reporter is ended.
Ferdy's bosom swelled, and encouraged alike by the
speech and the confidence Mr.. Gilman appeared to
place in him, he arranged to meet the fnancier oftener.
Once or twice a week he encountered him at Lily's.
where the celebrate man INDUCED his interest in art,
but this was not enough and Ferdy selected a spot in
the street where he was likely to see him during the
day. ss.
Matters progressed even better than he expected.
Despite the pressure of other affairs, Mr.. Gilman always
found time to talk to Ferdy, and being a man of demo-
cratic principles, he gave the young, man, within two
weeks of his introduction, his first information on the
market. The value of a certain stock would change,
he said, and Ferdy wrote an article giving the reasons
for an expected drop. The paper being an exclusively
financial one. Robinson was naturally cautious about
printing prophecies of this kind. but Ferdy had an air

of confidence that strangely impressed him and The
printed the article as it stood. The prophecy being
correct. Ferdy's importance rose: Then, within a few
days, a similar opportunity occurred, with similar re-
suits. @
For another month this state Of affairs continued.
Carefully suppressing any detail that might reveal the
source of his information, Ferdy wrote articles in in
creasinsly authoritative vein, and was uniformly correct
When Consolidated rose. his information preceded the
rise; when Erie dropped, it was merely a justification
of his fears.
The papers circulation, naturally, enough, increased
enormously. All Wall Street marvelled at the accuracy
of the predictions. and it dribbled into Offices further
uptown, where business men, caught by the lure of
speculation, came to regard its articles as almost the
final word. The increasing circulation brought a cor
responding increase in salary, and Robinson. who had
seldom met his subordinate without hurting an epithet
At him. treated Ferdy with constantly growing respect.
There was only one unpleasant feature to the. situa-
ton. Lily. whose ingenuity had brought it about, had
moral misgivinss. She limited at intervals that they
were not behaving squarely to Mr.. Gilman. and one
evening framed her doubts in a definite reproach. Il
feel ashamed whenever you meet him" she said to
Ferdy. TITS terrible the way we take advantage of
him."
Ferdy, whose increasing importance had given him
a somewhat judicial air, assured her that their course
was proper. Il admit Mr.. Gilman is a pleasant man"
he said, "but, my dear Lily, we must take a broader view
of the situation. He's a man who's made his money
off other men; we're only helping the other men to
get some of it back"

ular excursion to points in Georgia on

from points on the Palatka division be-
tween that point and Valdosta. This
train will conasct with q special ex-
cursion train at Valdosta on which
Pullman cars will be operated to Ma
con and Atlanta. Owing to the fact
that there will be no tickets sold from
Valdosta or points north thereof it will
be quite an advantage for the people
south of Faldasta as better schedules
will be maintained. Vsry low rates
are offered to Vaidosta, Macon and At
lanta and tickets will allow five whole
days in either of these cities. This
train will be personally conducted by
the district passenger agent of the
Georgia Southern & Florida Railway

ments and edibles. ample accommoda-
tions and best Of order; in fact, every
thing will be done for the comfort of
the passengers. The ladies and child
