CHAPTER XI.
The Lace Handkerchief.


Still wearing the graceful, filmy
morning gown. with an added touch
of scarlet in her hair-a single red
rose-Miss Thorne came into the
drawing-room where Mr.. Grimm sat
waiting. There was curiosity in her
manner, thinly yelled, but the haunt
ing smile still fingered about her lips.
Mr.. Grimm bowed low, and placed a
chair for her after which he stood
for time staring down at one slim
white hand at rest on the arm of the
seat. At last, he, too sat down.
Il believe" he said slowly, without
preliminaries, this is your handker-
chief"
He offered the lacy trife, odd in de-
sign, unique in workmanship, obvious
ly Of foreign texture, and she ac-
cepted It,
Yes" she agreed readily, 81 must
have dropped It again"
That is he one handed to Won bv
Senior Rodriguez" Mr. Grimm told
her. Il think you said you lost It in
his Office yesterday afternoon"
Yes ?" She nodded inquiringly

Senior Rodriguez's butler positively
Identifies 1t as one he restored to you
twice at dinner last evening. between
seven and nine o'clock" Mr.. Grimm
went on dispassionately.
Indeed" exclaimed Miss Thorne.
The senior Identifies 1t as one he
found this morning in his Office" Mr..
Grimm explained obligingly During
the night fifty thousand dollars in
gold were stolen from his safe"
Miss Thorne sat motionless, wait
Ing.
All this means-what?" she inquir-
ed, at length.
I'll trouble you, please. to return
the money" requested Mr.. Grimm
courteously. mo reason appears why
you should have taken 1t. But I'm not
seeking reasons, nor am I seeking dis
agreeable publicity-only the money
1T seems to me you attach undue
Importance to the handkerchief" she
objected.
That's a matter of opinion" Mr..
Grimm remarked TT would be use
less, even tedious. to attempt to dis.
prove burglar theory, but against 1t
is the difficulty of entrance, the
weight of the gold, the ingenious meth.

that not more than six per-
sons knew the money was in the safe;
while a person in the house might |
have learned 1t In any of a dozen
ways. And, in addition, is the fact |
that the handkerchief is odd, there
fore noticeable. A lace expert assures |
me there's probably not another like

He stopped. Miss Thorne's eyes
sparkled and smile seemed to be |
Juggling at the corners OF her mouth. |
She spread out the handkerchief on
her knees.

EIGHT BALES FROM S ACRES
THREE MORE OPEN IN PATCT

Lexington, S. c., Nov. 2.-Mr. Bel
ton Buff, who resides between Lexing-
ton and Columbia, is said to have the
finest fve-acres field of cotton in this
section of the State. Br. Buff has al
ready picked eight bales from the
field and it is estimated that there is
at least three bales open in the patch
now, with many balls yet to be heard
from. Mr.. Buff has made three crops
on this same land, it is said. The first
planting was in early roasting ears,
which he sold on the Columbia mar
ket at big profit. The cotton is
planted in fve-foot rows and is a
great distance apart in the drill.
This is believed to oe the best yield
in this county this year. Mayor Sam
P. Roof thought that he had broke
the record when he picked more than
LOO pounds Of seed cotton from one
acre during a single picking; but Mn
Buff on his five acres mas beaten this
record to frazzle.

take care of himself and not ask any
others to do it for him. The idea OF
the Farmers union, he said, was d.
versifcaticn, living at home. AS op-
posed to Mr.. Stackhouse, who thought
small warehouses would never pay,
Mr.. Kelley declared that the small
warehouses did pay and paid hand
somely. That the idea of the Farmers
union was to build warehouses at ev-
cry point in the State, where as much
as 5000 bales could be cotton togeth-
er, no matter whether It was a one
railroad town or not. He stated that
the small farmers had no confidence
in standard warehouses in Columbia,
Charleston or other big points, but
that they wanted their cotton in ware
houses at their home markets, where
they could see it with their own eyes
when they wanted to. Finance your
crop with local capital and if neces-
sary organize farmers union banks to
do it," he said. Ms. Keller said that
the plan of getting contracts for eth
,er holding or reducing acreage signed
by farmers as provided in the Stack
house scheme, was impracticable and
would never work. He made a vigor-
Gus speech in favor of the Farmers
union and urged that it be composed
Of farmers alone.
Mr.. H. T. Morrison, of Mcclellan
vile, chairman of the warehouse
committee of the Farmers union, fol-
lowed, in a talk telling of the plan of
building warehouses all over the State
as adopted by the union at its July
meeting and as told by Mr.. Keller.
Mr.. Morrison said that finally it was
planned to merge all the warehouses
and have them work together, through
a central organization. He argued,
that the only practicable method was
the one the Farmers union had adopt !
ed, of building warehouses at every
available point in the State. He said
the Farmers Warehouse company had
been organized and obtained char
ter, with capital of S500,0O0; that
some stock had already been su5scrib-
ed and that the company was assisting
in building warehouses in several
counties at present.
Col. Robert Mixson, of Williston,
thought much time had been wasted
and that what was needed was some
remedy for the present. "Retire every
bale off the market that is what is
needed, and how to do that is what We
want to know" he stated.
Senator E. D. Smith, stating that he
would feel out Of place in a cotton
meeting without having something
to say, told Of the history of former
fights for higher prices for cotton in
past years and urged the farmers not
to weaken, but to stand by the actions
already taken and to demand the price
already taken and to demand the
price which had been fixed for this
crop. He made great cotton speech
and was loudly applauded.
