not so sure that he had any very def

ours were like ever so many little
tiny rooms said Cazalet, where
couldn't stand nearly upright even as
a small boy without giving my head
crack against the ground floors. They
led into one another by lot of little
manholes-tight fits even for a boy,
but nearly fatal to the boss police

Hilton Toye, edging in his word,
said he guessed he visualized-bu just
where had those missing things been
found?

Cazalet.

"The devil he would" exclaimed
Cazalet. Il wish you'd explain" he
added; remember Pm a wild man
from the woods, and only know Of

hearsay and stray paragraphs in the
papers. l never knew you could leave

Cazalet. looked at him a moment
before complying; then his fine, shape

You wait" replied Hilton Toye,
taking the menu gingerly by the edge,

Cazalet excused himself with deci-
sion. He had a full morning in front
of him. He was going to see Miss
Macnair's brother, son of the late head
of his fathers old firm of solicitors,
and now one of the partners, to get
them either to take up Scruton's case
themselves, or else to recommend a
firm perhaps more accustomed to
criminal practice. Cazalet was always

"wHY JESUS WAS A MAN AND
NOT WOMAN"

This book, which is just from the
press, is the third book by Mr.. Tapp.
inv hich he interprets the Sex-Law o.
the Bible. His first book on the sub
ject, The Truth About the Bible"
came from the press about two years
ago. About a year after that. his
second book. Sociology OF The Bible"
followed. In these books. Mr.. Tapp
contends that all sin of the Flesh is
in the Sex-Senses and that is the rea-
son that Jesus did not have a natural
father. He is a lawyer and has done
great work for the inspiration of
the Bible and the Divinity of the
Christ. He has answered all the
school of the IngersoFs, etc. He shows
that the fall of man was a matter of
the Flesh and the Sex and that the
Christ had to be conceived without
a natural father in order to be the
perfect man and Redeemer Of the
world. His idea is, The Law of Sex
is the Key Of the Bible. The idea is
arresting the attention of the great
thinkers of the world. The books may
be secured by addressing Sidney c.
Tapp, Kansas City, Mo. They should
be in every home and library OF the
world.

TWO BANDITS LOCK 5
OFFICIALS IN THE VAULT
Masked Men Break Up Williamsyille,
Mo-, Directors Meeting. March
Them to the Safe.

Williamsville, Mo-, March 2.-The
president, cashier and three directors,
one of them woman, of the Will
Evansville State Bank, were locked in
the bank vault at 2:15 yesterday aft
ernoon by two masked robbers, and
about $1,000 in cash was taken.
The robbers were surrounded by
a posse near Mill Spring last night.
Both were shot by a constable. One
is thought to be dead and the other
badly wounded. The posse at mid
night was waiting for dogs to arrive
before closing in on them.
The robbers fled from the bank
building amid a shower of buckshot
and escaped but one of them is be-
lieved to have been wounded by a
shot from revolver when he was
about a block away from the bank.
When the shot was fired one of the
bandits threw up his hands and
stumbled as though wounded.
Bloodhounds were brought from
