Have you treated for months and years, and

Will pay the peoples money back to
them. won't you? I can't rob them,
and suppose you won't"
The president OF the Driller's Bank
determined to lay the matter before
his directors. In the meantime, a tide
or small deposits began to arrive.
When the directors met on the second
Tuesday OF the month, there were a
hundred thousand dollars In these de-
posits, increasing with every mail.
The bank needed the money, It was
loaded with Industrial securities. The
directors hesitated. and finally con-
unued the matter until the next meet
Ing. The tide swelled into a flood, the
matter never anne up again before
the board, and Captain Shelton Sc
cured not one million, as he had prom
ised. but In all nearly two million dol
lars In deposits.
Tho entrance Of the two bank direc-
tors from Massachusetts followed a
little later On. Shelton had sent his
literature broadly scattered into New
England, reaching for persons there
with small annuities and little savings
In banks. His plan touched the very
ktng-bolt In the nature OF these peo-
pie, q possibility Of wealth without
risk. The income from their deposits
In savings banks was slight. This
speculation involved only the trans
fer of deposits to a different bank with
a try at an ell dorado for a rider. Hav-
Ing determined that the Driller's Bank
OF Pittsburg was solvent, deposits
went flooding westward. So great
were the Withdrawals that two direc-
tors OF one OF these banks in Massa-
chusetts, at the suggestion OF the de-
positors, went TO Pittsburg to look
into the matter.
Captain Shelton was advised. He
met these gentlemen at the Pennsyl-
vania station, entertained them at the

Roger Shelton eighty thousand dol
lars In interest. He feared to place
this money In bank lest some one SUI
Ing him might attach Il. and kept It in
a safety deposit box OF q New York
trust company. He had learned that
the two bank directors were now in
New York, and had hurried here hop
ing to purchase the tract Of land he
wished; but, on reflection, he hest
tated TO approach them. They would
be greatly suspicious Of him, and he
would not risk having the deed taken
In the name Of any other person. He
desired to get hold OF the tract lying
over the %synclinal. and he would, IL
necessary. give all the money he had
for 1t. This was the story skillfully
unmasked by Randolph Mason.
The captain, when the cat was out,
began to regret his rashness, His
secret had escaped him; II was an in
discretion to be amended by greater
caution. He was taken swiftly with a
trembling seizure Of suspicious.
You have overlooked the names OF
these gentlemen from Massachusetts,"
said Randolph Mason.
A certain cunning lodged along
Captain Shelton's features.
II have not overlooked It," he re-
piled II don't intend to tell them. I

my lawyer will do the rest. I don't
mean these Yankees TO sleep on the
trade. The deeds and the cash will
go on the table together. When they
are exchanged, the matter will be end
ed. That's my way OF doing business.
Now, what's your plan?"
MY plan." said Mason, will con.
form to your way of doing business.
Have these men here at two o'clock.
Let them know nothing OF the object
of this conference. But you, on your
part, take every %precaution. Come a
half-hour earlier with your attorney.
Bring the deeds and the cash with
you. Bring also a notary / would
have you take no chance. I would
have you omit no safeguard which
your instincts suggest"
Captain Shelton was greatly reas-
sured; but a doubt remained.
IF I come, they won't SELL" he said.

to the stability Of the Driller's Bank,
and then carried them down into the
oil field. There they found blind
folded Fortune scattering her favors
like a tipsy Vestal.
Captain Shelton counted we'll upon
his heady air. He brought forth his
maps, but he spoke little and sanely.
The topsy.turvy condition spoke for
him. He posed as one sober. careful,
far-sighted, in n community OF drunk
ards. Here were opportunities to be
seized, wisely held in hand and made
to produce, not a casual pot OF gold,
but q great fortune lasting for a CEN
tury. lie brought ~shrewdly TO the
strangers notice the two tracts lying
within his p~arallelogram OF leased ter
ritory. They instantly inquired why
these tracts were not included, and
he replied that at the time the CON-
pany leases were taken they could not
be had, and now he could not secure
them without the consent OF the stock
holders, n thing impracticable. He
would take these two tracts In his
W name, but such an act might sub
iect him to criticism. This was, or
course, n lie. The roustabout from
| whom Shelton had secured his leases
omitted these tracts because the own
ers demanded twenty-five cents IN
acre bonus. Around these two tracts
Shelton masked his arts of suggestion.
Ho wished these mems fingers dipped
with his In the dish, n little OF their
gold on the table, a wager LETT here
behind them on the spin OF the wheel.
When the two bank directors re-
turned to New England, they took
with them the fee simple titles OF
these two tracts. They took with
them also the impression, but not the
certainty, that Captain Shelton was
merely an adventurer. Able to judge
accurately any situation In New Eng
! land. they were at sea here. The bank
in Pittsburg was certainly solvent.
The territory advertised by Shelton
was certainly covered by his leases.
Eighteen months later. the Union
Consolidated Oil Company was dis
solved and It's stock cancelled. The
bank returned the deposits and paid

Randolph Mason.

Mason. 81 shall leave you entirely to

Randolph Mason arose, and waited
for his visitor TO depart.

The men who met In Randolph Ma
sons private office were OF most in
c%ongruous types. My visual memory
Of this conference remains clear-cut,
like the Climax Of some drama; there
was the notary, a tired old man, look
ing on u~nconcerned from n chair by
the door; Captain Shelton, his under
lip painfully frightened, seated on one
side OF the library table with his at
torney at his elbow. This attorney
merits a word of comment; he was
the ablest practitioner Of his class in
New York, q class abandoned wholly
to intrigue. schooled smatteringly In
the lew through attendance and ex-
p~erience at trials, but past masters OF
trickery: he was a little, rotund man.

from the top of one ear around to
