CHAPTER VI.
G. 500 Reward.

$500 Reward.
When Rudolph Van Vechten rallied
from the staggering blow of the brutal
effort to focus his attention upon the
sensational news story that lay below,
and which shrieked as loud as Law.
ish use of black ink and red ink and
double leads could make it. There
were smaller headlnes-but visible
enough, heaven knows-which bore
his uncles's name and his own, and
most inconspicuously of all-doubtless
as being the least important factor
Mrs. Devereaux's.
In the first place, it was made un-
mistakable that everybody who knew
or should have known where Paige
Carew was, either would not tell, or
else they did not know, and it was
demonstrated how this reticence was
conclusive evidence that she had en-
countered some untoward fate. Every
possible change was rung upon the ex-
cited query in the hectic headline:
"Where is Paige Carew?"
Rudolph Van Vechten, prominent
cubman and well-known society fa-
vorite, the missing girls fiance, had
been signally evasive in his replies.
The interview with him was quoted in
full, and the abusive comments made
it appear as if he were at the time dis
tressed to the verge Of insanity.
A recent celebrated abduction case
was summarized, and certain similari.
ties between it and Miss Carew's
evanishment were played up strong"
the deliberate intention of course be-
ing to insinuate that the girl had met
with like outrage.
In short, so adrotly was the whole
thing worded that the Sphere in no
way committed itself; and however
Miss Carcw might reappear, and what
ever the subsequent explanation, 1t
would be good for another front
page" story, and the Sphere would
have nothing to retract.
Van Vechten, white with rage,
gnashed his teeth. Glancing up to
ascertain whether he was the target
OF too many curious eyes, and discov-
ering that he and Tom we're once more
alone, he gave vent to a hushed but
heated expression Of his feelings.
THAT" gritted he, mutilating the
sheet with a vicious jab of his fist, "is
damnable. If that meddling little re-
porter were here I'd t. sh him within
an inch of his life. LORI. won't Uncle
Theodore rage and tear his hair
when he sees it? Believe me, old chap,
therell be something doing now.
Alexander! Where did that
boy go?"
Alexander was upon the scene al
most as if by magic, his mien one of
childlike innocence.
Van Vechten instructed:
Telephone the Kenmore garage and
have Ramley fetch my touring car
here immediately-the largest one"
Ensconced in one of the clubs
booths. Alexander soon got the gar
age and next Ramley, whom he thus
addressed:
Say, you Ramley hick, your boss
wants his biggest buzz-wagon at the
Powhatan, c. @. D. J'get it? :.
Watts that? Who? Me? Well,
I'd rather be fresh kid than a picked
mutt. Beat 1t, youse, and don't get
pinched on the way, else youse'l be
chasin' annuder job"
Whereupon he forestalled further re-
partee by speedily hanging up and re-
suming his occupation Of lurking. un-

RUNNING A NEWSPAPER.

Running newspaper Is q thing
that every person knows how to dc
except the editor or manager. No
body should ever get roasting in its
columns except the editor and his
friends. On the other hand, their
friends should be sweet scented,
praised and banqueted. II you do
something bad you want the editor to
keep your name out Of the paper;
but, on the other hand, should you
buy a new dress or hat or feed two
or three of the bon tons Of the town
at your table or sing a solo you want
a big puff and boost, and II you
don't get It you are going to stop the
paper. A newspaper is something
no one forgets to condemn for its
mistakes, but never remember to
praise 1t for the good It accomplishes.

MCLEAN adopts" NEGRO cHuM
FOR f0o-MILLIoN BABY.

FiveYearoid John Winbush viii
Play with vinson Until He is is,
Then Become Wilson's Valet.
Palm Beach, Fla.-Edward B. Nc
Lean and his wife. the former Evelyn
Walsh, daughter of the late Thomas
r. Walsh. who have a three-year-old
son, Vinson, commonly known as the
"$1000.000.0 900 baby" because 1t is
said he viii inherit that sum, have
taken little Negro boy as their
fostering. He is John Winbush, Jr.,
ffve-year-old son of John Winbush, of
p. street. near Massachusetts, ave-
nue., Washington.
P T. Spencer, Mr.. McLean's attor.
ney, brought the little Negro boy to
Palm Beach today, after having pre-
pared papers, which the child's par
ents signed for a consideration, re-
linquishing their rights over the boy
forever. BY the contract, Mr.. and
Mrs. Mclean do not actually adopt
the child. He is not to bear their
name or to inherit from them except
as specified In the contract. He is,
however, to be treated as an equal
Of young Vinson Mclean and fur
nished with every luxury until h Is
fifteen years old, when he is to be-
come Wilson's valet.
Mr.. Mclean made this statement
concerning the transaction:
II do not want my boy to grow up
living the life common to children
Of wealthy people. am getting this
boy for my sons playmate because
he is a healthy, normal, simple-mind-
ed child. The companionship of this
child will keep my son mindful of
the fact that he is one of the people.
I don't want son Of mine snob.
The trend Of wealth is in that direc-
ton. E. .
Moreover, my son has been in the
company of men, his detectives and
nurses so much that he is becoming
precocious. It Is the best thing for
him to have healthy little bay of
his own age to play with. I was
brought up in the same way, first
with Negro nanny, then with a
Negro boy who was my playmate and
later my valet" .. .
Jack Winbush, IT. began leading
his new life when he left Washing
ton, where he had been supplied with
fine wardrobe. He had a drawing
room to himself on the Florida spe-
cial on the Seaboard. He eats at ia
BILE with young Mclean in the fam
ily's private dining room. He is the
only Negro allowed on the bathing
beach.
Dressed alike I'm white sailor suits
and both bare-legged, vinson and
Jack played in the sand all morning
in front of the Casino. The children
made their appearance hand In hand
and seemed to be great chums as they
played with shovels and pals. To.
night MIR. Mclean engaged one of
the Negro bellboys at the hotel as a
personal servant for this child.
