a shock which threw him from his
chair. The walls quivered, a cloud Of
plaster fell from the roof. Picking
himself up, he rushed outside to
learn what had happened. His first
thought was that there had been a
landslide; his second that this was
an earthquake.
When he looked into the machine
house from which the cable issued
he saw that everything was wrecked.
In the twisted itangle OF machinery
we're the still whirring fragments OF
a wheel. And over all was a singular
plate Of metal, seventeen feet long
and some two inches In thickness,
smooth as though 1t had been made
to form the top of a billiard table.
1t was impossible to say OF what 1t
was composed. From the fact that
iron entered largely into its compost
ton the theory was subsequently ad-
vanced that this was a meteor, which,
mysteriously %iattened, had fallen into
the engine house.
Yet, since the roof was intact, 1t
must have come through the small
aperture in the floor by which the
cable descended. Scientists then pro-
pounded the theory that the meteor.

skimming its circumference for many
thousand miles. until flattened by at
mospheric friction, had plunged into
the machine house at that angle of
half a degree. The pieces of the
wheel did not fl into this theory. so
they ignored them.
This exhibit. which was a nine
days wonder at that time. was soon
forgotten. 1t rests now in the Tech
nical Museum in Dublin, and is chief
ly Of interest as being the hardest
substance known. The compression
to which 1t was subjected during its
passage through space must have
been intellectually strong, the cata-
logue says. Nobody knows that this
metallic slab forms the sarcophagus

John Haynes had fulfilled all the
purposes which had inspired him
when he made his escape from the
state penitentiary at Nokomis Falls.
BY means of the powerful gyroscope
which he had invented. he hunted
down those enemies who had flung
him into prison upon a trumped-up
charge; he had discovered the wife
and daughter who had been torn from
him, and he had placed them in each
others arms. Then, since his wife,
believing him dead, had married
again, and because the stains Of blood
which he had shed in the accomplish
ment of his revenge lay on his soul,
he did not dare reveal himself to the
woman to whom he was still legally
bound, but made his way to a remote
corner of the United States and hid

How many thousands of miles he
mad traversed upon that wonderful
machine Of his! Travelling at the
speed OF two hundred miles an hour,
whether it were bound to the feet or
attached to an automobile or any 9TH
er medium of locomotion, nor could
successfully pursue him. had he but
a moments warning. But now he
wanted only to rest, to be alone, to
think. 1t seemed to him that, hav-
ing accomplished that revenge to
which he had dedicated his life, he
had no more to live for. His heart
