'I will give you" Napoleon began after lunch the following morning, an outline of explanation to the ap- parent puzzle. In the first place, neither Allerby nor Fowler is law yer at all There are no such firms as far as they are concerned, as Al lerby and Weather. or Fowler and Fowler. They are two of the clever est members of gang vaguely known to, but never exactly located by, the police of Europe, as the Cosmopoli tans. The Cosmopolitans are at pres ent engaged on one of the widest sweeps they have ever undertaken. They have members in every country in Europe, in India, and in certain cities of America, each member in quest of a certain object One is en- trusted with the theft of-say ducal regalia. Another, with famous jewels belonging to a famous beauty; others. in Amsterdam and Johannesburg with illicit diamond buying. These things are sent, as soon as taken, through the ordinary post, to Allerby and Fowler, who have been appointed receivers. If flat enough, the jewels or what not are sent between card board in legal envelopes, or i'll boxes made like books, that when wrapped up have all the appearance of books with their jutting covers. They are sent in a hundred ways. It is easier and safer for two men to receive and two men of apparently respecta ble calling-than for one only. Most of the property fixed upon by the Cos mopolitans to be stolen has, I believe been sent now When it is all gath cred together. it will be taken to the house of a member, a dentist in FitZ roy Square. He is pretty well a bogus dentist, too but he only sets up to be a cheap one, and if patients don't pay, they must submit to be hacked All the property, then, would be taker to the basement of the house, where there is a workroom. In six hours all the jewels could be unset, parted and rendered safe to offer in certain
 markets known to the Cosmopolitans
 And the proceeds, of course, are di vided between the whole syndicate
 That is as the Cosmopolitans propose 1 dispose"
 Are the clerks in Fowler's and Al lerby's offices members of the profes | sion?" Luck asked
 'I think not" replied Napoleon
 ''The fact of their responsibility, thei
 ordinary clerkhood, helps to proVid
 cloak. And they are easily gulled
 The Cosmopolitans would not choos
 bright boys for that work. They ar
 set to do copying-easily found-an'
 to write business letters relating t 1 legal cases, which letters are all sen
 to members of the gang. The thing
 surprisingly simple"
 And my part?"

Some Are Not Graceful Losers

Pensacola Journal: The world likes
a good loser. Everybody tips his hat to
the man who accepts the inevitable
cheerfully. In the recent great political
conflict there had TO be some losers.
Because the result was not unexpected,
the sting of defeat was perhaps less
keen, but nevertheless there was a sting
of defeat.
None of the defeated candidates ex
pected to be elected. Colonel Roose
welt accepted the result with great phil
oSophy and much magnanimity. The
enormous popular vote he received was
perhaps as large as he had hoped for.
President Taft has shown no particular
bitterness in any of his statements. No
doubt he feels that in large measure
his overwhelming defeat was due 10
treachery in his own party and naturally
he reSentS this.
Some of the so.called democratic
newspapers that, while ostensibly for
Wilson but all the while secretly and
covertly Stabbing him in the back with
malicious SlurS, have been the poorest
losers.
The Times Union, of Jacksonville,
nominally democratic newspaper, fur.
nisheS glazing instance of this kind.
The morning after the election, it said
editorially that the election of Wilson
was in no sense a democratic victory
but was only an instance of republican
suicide. 1t claimed that Wilson got a
smaller vote than Mr.. Bryan and that
had there been no split in the republi.
can ranks, the democrats would have
been showed under.
This would be very interesting if true
but il is not true. Mr.. Wilson or any
other democrat nominated by the Bali
more convention would have been tri
umphantly elected, whatever may have
been the outcome of the Chicago con.
venlion.
II is democratic year. The trend OF
the times is towards true democracy.
A large majority of the people want a
government along democratic lines,
although many thousands of them
were lured from the straight and narrow
way by the glittering and spectacular
personality of Theodore Roosevelt.
The Times Union is not a graceful
loser, but il may be depended on to cast
as many distractions as possible in the
way OF the success of the Wilson ad-
miniStration.

Compulsory Education

Arcadia News: Every white child in
Florida, who is not disqualified, should
be compelled TO attend some educa-
tional institution or take such examina,
tons as would show proficiency, be-
tween the ages of seven and fifteen
years, and this should be done by a
we'll devised, operative, compulsory
school law. Its a down right shame 10
levy heavy taxes for the support of
schools, build buildings and equip them
and pay teachers, and then witness little
fellows growing up all over the State in
the country and in the towns and cities
as well, without the rudiments of even
a common school education. We have
neither heard, nor do we conceive OF
any good reason why we should moi
have compulsory school law for Flori-
da. There may be reasonable obec.
ton in the minds of some who want 10
find an excuse in other States, but the
objections usually made are not ade-
quate to conditions in Florida. The
mldneSS of the winters, the scarcity oil
child labor in daily avocations, the
splendid school system already well
established, should place Florida fore
most in education in all the States and
it would take such place if the children
throughout the State were forced TO at
tend the public schools.
