WANDERS IN WOODS
LOADED WITH COIN
Fort Wayne Man Is Found in
Pennsylvania with S2,388.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Aug. 16.-His pock-
cts bullying with the small fortune
he carried, Felix Edward w. Helmke,
seventy-three years old, retired shoe
merchant, whose home is at lis Doug
las avenue, Fort Wayne, Ind, was
found wandering in a clump of woods
near Aspinwall, exhausted and be-
wildered, by the crew of a street car
at 1:1O a. M, and turned over to the
police. When searched at Central
station later by county detectives his
money counted up to $2,388.28, mostly
in gold coin.
Helmke told two stories. He had a
ticket from Philadelphia to Fort
Wayne, and said that he had been on
his way home, but had left the train,
mistaking this place for his home
town, and was seeking his house
| when found.
His other story was to the effect
| that he had been on his way to Ger
many when he ran into a party of
friends in Harrisburg and accom-
panied them to a picnic, after which
his memory failed him.
Fort Wayne, Ind, Aug. 16.-Felix
Helmke of this city, who was found
wandering in tn ewoods near Pitts
burgh, left this city the day before
with the avowed intention of going to
Germany to visit relatives. His fam
lily tried to dissuade him from making
tbs trip, but without success. His
son left for Pittsburgh to bring him
home.

THE
TANGLED
WEB
CHAPTER I.

rVELYN GRANGE is one Of the
= show places Of Long Island.
1t occupies a hill crest commanding
the great Hampstead plains, made
beautiful by it's fine graduat1ons OF
distance and coloI. To the left lies
the wooded rolling country of
Wheatley Hills, and but a few
motor miles away the blue waters OF
the Sound indent the Islands shore.
The house-a vast edifice of pale
red brick with white trim-possesse
terraces bordered by marble balus-
trades, descending in steep success
sion: each a giant step of flowers,
divided down the middle by a marble
staircase alternating with pebbled
pathways. The right wing of the
mansion is devoted to the luxurious
housing of it's guests. The left wing
contains the servants quarters and
the necessary array of kitchens. De-
tached buildings for squash and
bowls offer exercise and pleasure for
dark and sullen days. In the dis
lance the great bulk of the stables
lies shrouded in huge trees, whence
a faint yapping from the crowded
kennels is almost always audible.
It was Wendham's first visit to
the Grange, and, as he drove up the
long, leaf Uttered road in the gather
ing dusk, he was unprepared for
the imposing structure that met his
sight. Really" he said to Mrs.
Lawdon, who had arrived on the
same train, and sat beside him en-
veloped in chinchilla and grey wells,
"a title should go with it. Doesn't
seem the proper thing for just a
plain Mister, does it?"
do you think anything is too
fine for the American gentleman"
she answered.
Wendham was glad that the grow
ing dusk hid his smile. Really, I
wasn't quite serious about it, he
answered, land I've been away so
long, you see, that I've grown con-
tinental.'
She nodded. Charlie told me
you'd been in Europe-how long
four years, wasn't it?"
-Four years." he echoed thought
fully, land what Changes!"
And Charlie married !-you got
our cards, didn't you? 1t seems to
me they were sent to Vienna or
somewhere like that"
Eyes, 1 received them-about six
months ago."
Then there's the Boskwith di-
vorce-that must have surprised
you-and Nellie Gaynor's a widow

She paused abruptly, suddenly
recalling the gossip that linked Boyd
Wel hams hasty departure with the
marriage of the lovely Nellie.
Doesn't look heartbroken." she
commented to herself, as she turned
to examine his appearance under
cover of admiring the passing land
scape. She saw strong-featured,
keen-eyed man of powerful build,
whose hair, though prematurely
grey, did not age his appearance,
chiefly because of the boyish sparkle
OF his unusually handsome eyes, and
the affectionate humor of his flexi-
