The pair sauntered slowly along the
avenue, despite the efforts of fiery
little man, apparently Thompson's
trainer, who made wild endeavors to
head him toward the elevated rail-
road. Thompson shook off the little
man as though he were a fly, while
his companions, evidently secure in
their belief of the sailors ability to
dispose of the EnSlishman, trained or
unframed, warmly seconded their
mate The little man gave up at last
and, after shaking his first angrily in
Thompson's face, disappeared among
the crowds.
Thereupon Thompson and Egan,
arm in arm. surrounded by round
dozen Of their cronies, strolled slow
ly in the direction of the tattooer's
booth.

Where was Crewee Could that be
he, that rough looking man, collarless,
with dirty reversible cuffs and open
waistcoat, his face flushed with drink,
who was inviting all and sundry to
come and sit down and drink at his
expense? Undoubtedly it was Crewe,

How did you come to suspect that
this substance had been used, and
how was it intended to work?"
DO you remember what they used
to rub into soldiers wounds in olden
days, Langton?" my companion asked.
l shook my head.
"Gunpowder. The explosives have
the property of being very we'll tolcrat-
ed by the tissues of the human body.
Thompson's statement that the tattoo
ing caused barely any irritation, the
peculiarly blue appearance of the
scar, and the relationship existing be-
tween Egan and tie Chinaman, who
was connected with a firm OF firecrack-
er importers, all confirmed me in my
suspicion. The plan was, undoubtedly,
to let Thompson meet the English
man, when the first hard blow that he
received upon the chest would certain
ly have detonated the explosive and
blown out the vital organs of the BODY,
producing instant death.
You know that, when foreign sub
stance enters the tissues, nature, ur-
able to reject it, renders it harmless
by encysting it. 1t was the fear that
this encysting process might already
have begun which caused Egan to in
sist upon second application.
IF the substance could have been
removed, l would have confided
in Thompson. But any attempt to
cut out the explosive would have
caused an immediate defamation. Ny
problem, therefore, was to prevent the
fight by rendering Thompson power
less without striking him upon the
chest, as Egan hoped would when he
melted him to attack me. And but
for that" concluded Crewe, with a
touch of pride in his tones, i think
I could have give. better account
of myself in our little tussle."

first to take the part of Egan. ~

Movina Picture Frauds.

WASHINGTON Star: "Duping films
is the phrase used by moving picture
men to describe a flourishing Illicit
trade in counterfeits of the current
films. "Duped" or duplicate films are
made by photographing the entire
contents If moving picture films as
the scenes are projected Upon the
screen. An ordinary moving picture
camera is used for the purpose, These
copies of films afford a very large
margin Of profit, because the dishon-
est produced may avoid the cost of
mounting plays; he avoids paying the
salaries of actors and other studio ex-
penses, and in the case of outdoor pro-
auctions or travel pictures he avoids
the cost of transportation and of de-
lays. Moving picture manufacturers
have found it necessary to combine
against this traffic.

Amateur Weather Foreoastinq.


Christian Almanac: The following
formula of weather signs was adopted
by the Farmers club OF the American
institute some years ago, and it has
been found to give satisfaction: /.
When the temperature falls suddenly,
there is a storm forming south Of
you. 2. When the temperature rises
suddenly, there is a storm forming
north of you. 8. The wind always
blows from a region OF fair weather
towards a point where a storm is
forming. 4. Cirrus clouds always
move from a region where a storm is
in progress to one Of fair weather. 5.
Cumulus clouds always come from a
region where a storm is forming. 6.
When cirrus clouds are moving rap
idly from the north or northeast, no
matter how cold 1t is, there will be
rain, within "a hours. Z. When cir
rus clouds are moving rapidly from
south or southeast there will be a hall
storm on the morrow, Il it be in the
summer, and IL 1t be in the winter 1t
will be snow. 5. The wind always
blows about a storm In Q circle; when
1t blows from the north, the heaviest
rain is EAST OF you: If 1t blows from
the south, the heaviest rain is west of
you; il it blows from the east. the
heaviest rain is south. 8. The wind
never blows, ever moderately. unless
rain or snow is falling within a radius
Of 1000 miles. 10. Whenever heavy
white frost appears, a storm Is form
ing within 1000 miles north or north
west Of you.

of the house.
The Dunmore police say gas from a

volume and exploded when it came in
contact with an oil lamp that was
burning in the house.

DETECTIVES TELL HOW
JUDGE HANFORD MADE
HIS SALOON ROUTE

SEATTLE, July Sit seems
like Judge Hanford could not
pass these saloons without enter
ing them
In these words, A. M. Kohler,
Burns detective, summarized in
his testimony before the congress
sional committee now investigat-
ing the impeachment charges
against Federal Judge G. H.
Hanford of the western district
of Washington, the judges daily
habit, as he observed 1t, of maxi
ing the rounds" of the saloons.
Six bartenders, reluctant wit
nesses against the United States
judge, were over-eager to tell the
committee that he drank very
seldom" But they corroborated
the testimony of teh Burns detec-
tives that Judge Hanford did fire.
quent their bars more or less, and
they testified, like the Burns de-
tectives, that in each different bar
Judge Hanford was accustomed
to take particular kind of
drink. In one, it was always
sherry and an egg, the testimony
showed. In a second, 1t was a
benedictine cordial. In third,
lit was a whisky cocktail. 1t took
the Judge ten minutes to take
these three drinks. in three differ
emit bars, every day ractically,
after leaving the federal build
ing, and first sending an hour or
so at his club, the evidence OF
the detectives showed.
A city councilman had testified
to seeing the Judge staggering in
street cars. The conductor of
Judge Hanford's car line testi-
fed to that, too. A lawyer testi-
fed to his being dead to the
world during the trial of a case,s
his eyes closed, his arms hanging
Imply to his side, and his back
turned to the jury.
Then A. A. Nordskog, a Burns
detective, who Swallowed Judge
Hanford for SO days, opened lupr
fully the pages showing the nights
of alleged debauchery which he
accused Judge Hanford of lead-.
ing.
Nordskog detailed the trail
upon Hanford night after night

not intoxicated, and ] have seem

ence Of liquor" Nordskog told tine

when his eyes seemed bloodshot--

would seem to wonder where he
was. have seen him when he

his seat in the car. He was so
intoxicated, one night that he
seemed to loose his way home,
and wandered off on an unusual
street for him. He had to lean
against two buildings for some
time in order to rest himself. He
got home at 2 o'clock in the
morning"
And that was only one night.
Nordskog told of several others.
As many as a dozen times. Nords-
kog testified of Judge Hanford
visiting the residence of some
woman at late hours of night and
early morning, after making his
rounds downtown at his club
and three or four saloons, and
staying at this residence for two
and three hours, and not going
home till after l and 2 a. m.
The congressional committee
has covered only small part of
the charges against Hanford and
it Is probable that the investiga-
ton will last at least two more
full weeks.

Race Course Is Ready For
Record Breaking Speeders

The last dangerous point on
the Mcnamara Festo race course
was remedied last night when
Judge w. ]. Reynolds worked a
crew of men practically all night,
leveling the approach to the
bridge on the west side of the
track which was the only spot
complained of by the racers. A
knoll at either end of the ap-
proach was cut away, giving the
racers almost level track APP
preaching the bridge.
At conference held at the
Olympus cafe this afternoon by
Judge Reynolds, Maj. Hunting
ton, Maj. Naylor and Chester
Hansen, it was decided to rigidly
rule all automobiles off the track
except the racers to prevent any
possible accidents and the de-
struction of the course. This rul-
ing will be rigidly enforced and
II special deputy sheriffs under
Judge Reynolds will carry out the
orders.
Teddy Tetzlaff personally SUI
perintended the work last night
and says that with fair weather
he believes his Santa Monica rec
ord will be eQualed or broken,
which means the speed of the
cars will approximate 10 miles an
hour. Fred ]. Wagner, official
starter, declares that the track is
