Use him immunity for some other

promise him immunity for some other
offenses."
Tell him he shall have immunity
on the word of the chief. But also
say that he must come to see me in
person"
''All right, sir"
Il don't believe it would be wise
for Beggs to see me here. 1 gave him
a good send-off-Sing Sing-five years
ago. He may recollect," said Norton.
Suit yourself about that. Only,
keep in communication with me by
telephone and I'll tip you off as to
when the raid shall take place. Lucky
you came in 1 should have honestly
gone there and arrested innocent
people, and they would have had a
devil of a time explaining. 1t would
have taken them at least a week to
clear themselves. That would leave
the house empty all that time"
Norton did not reply, but he put
the bIotter away carefully. There
was no getting away from the fact,
but the god of luck was with him.
do you know what's back of it
al?"
Il can't tell you any more than I
have" said Norton.
Then l pass. l know you well
enough. If you've made up your mind
not to talk a man couldn't get any
thing out of you with a can-opener.
And that's why we trust you, my boy.
Don't forget the telephone"
Il shan't. So long"
That same night Braine paid the
Russian woman a brief visit.
81 think that here's where we go
forward. The secret service will raid
the house tomorrow and then for a
few days well roam about as we bally
please. I'm hanged if 1 don't have
every plank torn up and all the walls
pulled down. More and more I'm con-
WINGED that the money is in that
house"
Don't be too confident" warned
Olga. $50 many times have we been
tripped up when everything seemed in
our hands. The house should be
guarded but not entered for a day
or two; at least not till after the raid
is cold. I'm beginning to see traps
everywhere.
"NonsenseI Leave It to me. We
shan't stick our heads inside the Har-
greave house till we are dead certain
that it is absolutely empty. Olga,
you're a gem 1 don't think Russia
will bother us for awhile. Eth? Paroff
will not dare tell how he was film
TANNED. The least he can do to save
his own skin is to say that we are
fully capable of taking care Of our
selves"
Olga laughed. ITO think of his
writing note like that Florence
would have recognized-andn no doubt
did-a palpable attempt to play an
old game twice"
How does she act towards your"
Cordial as ever; and yet :"
yet what?"
Il thought her an ordinary school
girl, and yet every once in while she
makes what you billiard players call
a professional shot. What matter?
So long as they do not shut the door
in my face, 1 ask nothing more. But
do you want my opinion? feel iesln
my bones that something will 60
wrong tomorrow"

lives and money. Well, if she would
be fool enough to love this man she
must abide with the consequences.
She wanted him all by herself, out of
danger, in far country. He might
tire, but she knew in her heart that
she never would. This was. her one
great passion, and while her mode
of living was not as, honest as might
be, her love was honest enough and I'M
swerving, though it was not gilded
by the pleasant fancies Of youth.
"Of what are you thinking" he
asked when he concluded that the
pause had been long enough.
You"
HIN. Complimentary"
No; just ordinary everyday love-"
"Ah, Olga, why the deuce must you
go and fall in love with a bundle of
ashes like myself? Ashes and bitter
ashes, too Sometimes 1 regret. But
the regretting only seems to make
me all the more savage. What opium
and dope are to other men, danger
and excitement are to me. 1t is not
written that shall die in bed. l have
told you that already. There is no
other woman-now. And do love you
after a fashion, as man loves COM
rade. Wait till this dancing bout is
over and l may talk otherwise. And
now l am going to shake hands and
hobnob with the elite-beautiful word!
And while bow and smirk and crack
witticisms, I and the devil will be
chuckling in our sleeves. But this
I'll tell you, while there's a drop of
blood in my veins, a breath in my
body, I'll stick to this fight if only
to prove that I'm not q gutter"
He caught her suddenly in his arms,
kissed her, ran lightly to the door,
and was gone before she could re-
cover from her establishment.
The affair went smoothly, without
a hitch. Norton and his men gained
the house through the tunnel without
attracting the least attention. The
Black Hundred, watching the front
and rear of the house, never dreamed
that there existed another mode of
entrance or that there was a secret
cabinet room.
Half an hour later the head of the
secret service, accompanied by his
men, together with Spider" Beggs,
who was in high feather over his sue
cess, arrived, demanded admittance,
and went at the front of the business
at once.
Your name is JONES'" began the
chief.
The butler nodded, though his face
evinced no little bewilderment at the
appearance of these men.
What is it you wish, sir?''
81 am from the secret service and
/ have it from a pretty good source
that there is counterfeit money hidden
in this house. More than that, 1 can
put my hand on the very place it is
hidden"
THAT is impossible, sir" declared
Jones Indignantly.
I'm an old hand, Mr.. Jones. 1t
will not DO you a bit of good to put
on that bold front"
Beggs smiled How was he to know
that this was a comedy set especially
for his benefit?
81 should like to see that money"
said Jones. not quite so bravely.
Come with me-" said the secret
service man. Where's the library?"
Beyond that door, sir"
The chief reckoning to his men,
entered the library, went directly to
a certain shelf, extracted three. vol
umes, and there lay the money in
three neat packages.
Good heavensl" gasped Jones.

London, May 25.-The house OF com
mons this afternoon passed the Irish
home rule bill for the third time. Un'
der the present law, it will become eff
fective though the house OF lords re-
iects it. :.
The vote was 351 to 274 This di-
vision was strictly political, and the
vote was practically the same as when
the measure passed its second reading
except that, since then, the conserva-
tives have gained a few seats at by
elections.
Quick Vote Surprise.
The quick vote was surprise, which
amounted almost to sensation. CROWDS
had flocked to Westminster, where
the parliament house is SITUATED, in ex-
pectation of red-hot debate, and vio-
lent anti.home rule demonstration. The
people stared, open mouthed, when they
received the news that the bill had
passed almost before they realized ii
was up for consideration.
When the house Of commons met,
Speaker LOwther, in an explanatory
speech, admitted tho question he asked
A. Bonar Law, leader of the opposition
last Friday, was improper. During the
disturbance which causec summary
adjournment Friday and while union
lists were shouting, Lowther asked Law
if he approved of the anti-hOme rule
demonstration. Law rc-lsed to ans
wer, saying the question was an i'm
proper one.

When Lowther finished his speech
today, Law said he accepted the speak

division.
Bill Rammed Through.
In Political circles interse excite
ment prevailed. The liberal.labor-Irish
alliance was determined to ram the
bill through. The conservatives were
equally determined to stop at nothing
to defeat it.
So far as parliamentary means were
concerned, it was clear that the allies
must win. They had the necessary ma
iority and were standing solidly togeth-
or. The conservatives hoped, however,
by disorder and confusion to force a
dissolution before the bill could be
voted on.
Speaker Lowther, himself a moderate
conservative, though in theory the
speaker is non-partisan, planned to
read speech which he hoped might
remove some Of the bitterness between
the two elements. His intention was
10 give hisyp0rsonal assurance that Pre-
mier Asquith meant to follow the home

ARMED rebellion
STALKS THROUGH
ANCIENT ALBANIA
-
Overthrow Of Government OF
King William Considered
Probable at Vienna
ENTIRE COUNTRY HAS
UNITED AGAINST film
Turkey Is Believed to Be Be-
hind the Recent Troubles
in the Kingdom

Vienna, May 25.-The overthrow of
the new Albanian government under
King william, formerly Prince William
of Wied, was considered more than
likely here today. At latest accounts,
William, his wife and their personal
suite were refugees on the Italian war
ship AIsurata, in Durazzo harbor,
Under the Misurata g guns it was
thought probable the recently chosen
ruler could perhaps regain control OF
Durazzo, but politicians here said they
did not see how this would help much.
The entire country seemed to be united
against him, and to keep it in subjuga-
tion, it was pointed out, would require
large foreign army.
1t was doubted if the powers which
enthroned him would furnish him with
sufficient military force to accom-
plish this. Even though they should be
compelled to send troops into Albania,
the belief was that they would not
again entrust its rulership to William
They wanted him, originally, to estab'
lish order there, and having precipi
tated rebellion instead, the concensr'
of opinion was that he was a failure
and ought to expect to lose his posi-
tion like any other employe who prov
ed unequal to the work cut out fol
him.
Reign Is Short.
From the very beginning of his shor
reign the Christians and especially tn,
Greeks were hostile to William. South
ern Albania was in revolt against hin
when he landed in DurazZo, and thi
rebellion continued to spread as long a
he stayed. Lately the Mohammedan
also became dissatisfied. Their discon
tent eliminated when William Danish
ed Essad Pasha, the Turk who defend
cd Scutari against the Montenegrin
and later had much to do with putin
William on the throne.
Instead of being overawed by Es
sand s banishment, his supporters in
mediately rose in armed rebellion. Wi
liam and his followers went on boar
the Misurata when it seemed certai
that his capital would be captured. Il
he done otherwise, it was agreed, h
undoubtedly would have been killed.
Turkey Behind Troubles.
The best judges here expressed IL
opinion that Turkey, which lost Alb
mia as result of the Balkan war, h;
been behind Albania IS recent trouble
that Essad Pasha has been acting
the sultan's agent throughout that
William s policies had proved pr
Turkish he would have supported hil
and that when he found he could n
control him, he determined on his owe
throw.
What will happen with William o
nobody could predict.

Vera Cruz, Mex, May 24.-War
Minister Banquet dominated the stu
alton in Mexico today, according to
advices from reliable sources there.
He was openly defiant, it was said, Of
president Huerta, and Huerta was re-
ported submissive to his nominal sub
ordinate.
The two men fell out, it was under
stood, following the discovery by Huer-
ta Saturday of plot against his gov
ernment. Mad with rage, the dictator
hurried to Belem prison and ordered
100 men held there on political charges
brought out and summarily executed.
Just at this point Minister Blanquets
automobile arrived.
Without ceremony Banquet ordered
the prisoners returned to their cells
Then, turning to Huerta, he said;
"You must stop killing all your sup
posed enemies if you want me to sup
port you.
Dictator Yields
Huerta yielded and went to cafe
His momentary surrender was no
taken by the public as meaning, how
ever, that he would not attempt to re
gain his prestige and infliet dire ven
geance on Banquet if he thought HI
saw an opportunity. Business house
and many residences in the capita
were barricaded and most shop win
dows were boarded up in anticipation
of street fighting. All who could wer
leaving the city. The Spaniards i
particular, terrified at the rebels az
proach, were fleeing in large numbers
The popular belief was that Huert
would not last another week.
The dictator had mounted fiftee
French eannons at Chaputepec castl
apparently preparatory to last stan,
but there were many who doubted
I he could count on enough supporter
to put up serious fight.
