But it's not impregnable, Stand ] lev" cut in the gray-bearded man, stopping the twiddling of his fingers | above his round d-paunched body. Now, look here. we're all friends together. | when it comes to that. You belong with us lot more than you do with 1 that Jasper from the country. Of course. you split with us, got mad, 1, took your dolls and all that sort of thing-we're all used to that-and we all sat tight because it looked good. | It looked better than it soes now. So. we're friends again"
 "Of course" nodded the slight man. q understand that"
 Sure you do, Now, it's plain that when it comes to being on the inside. you're there as an ex-director just as much as we are as real directors maybe more so, for all I know"
 Maybe more. yes, that's so,' smiled the slender man, his brown eyes twinkling yet more.
 ''How much more, then?"
 ''Why, a whole lot more!"
 What do you know?"
 T know what I've learned for my self and by myself. Gentlemen, it's on the table! Play the game! I did. I've had some of those college pro fessors at work for me-they're the people that first got us Iocoed, any how. Rawn. or rather his sonin-law. got his first notion from his own pro lessor in his college"
 The real trouble with business to- day" interrupted the gray-bearded man, reverting to his universal and inyariable grievance. 'is that things are all going wrong with the American people. These Progressives down there at Washington have set this whole country by the ears-nOt even the Supreme Court can square things any more. The suspiciousness of the average man is getting to be almost criminal, that's what it is The pub lie thinks every man with money is a rascal. The public is sdamuably un- grateful Look what we have done for this country. this little set of men sit. ting right here-what we've built for them, what we've paid out to them for wagesi What are we getting in re turn? They envy us our daily bread and by the Eternal. they'll come near putting US where we can't get that much longer! Look at the railway rate cases-it's robbery of the rail- ways. Capital hasn't any chance any morei The public seems to. be get, ting ready for anarchy; that's all"
 Isn't it the truth?" remarked the slender man sympathetically 'Stin, we have to handle men as we find them. my friends. In my own case. I've been fighting the devil with a little of his own fire"
 Flows that?"

If International doesn't want to take me in, or if can't break ] in, maybe there can be another com. | pany formed-there's considerable cor. poration room left in New Jersey. You | folks on the International have been having your own troubles with labor. haven't you?"
 Well. ratheri" grow1ed Alderman. We put that up to old Colonel J. R. Bonehead. our presidenti He seems to have got in about as nearly wrong as any one could with our esteemed ! friends of the. labor uniosnsi" Naturally; well, I'll make a con. fession, since we're all friends to- gether-Pve had men conferring with your horny-handed citizens and sug. gesting that the International Power Company was unfair, and bad outfit l to work forl"
 1 That was nice of youl" growled Alderman. getting red in the face. Fine business, for you to come snoop ing around our works"
 The slender man smiled at him pleasantly. How else ccald I get in. i formationg" be inquired. You must remember that I'm no Ion ger on the boardi But you must remember, also that of late have picked up an occa- ,sional dollars worth of International T wanted to know how about certain thingsi"
 Well. how about them. then?" de manded standIey hercely. Where do we standg"
