Broffin, heavy browed and clean

the chair to suit himself and sat down.

CHAPTER u.
The RiQht of Miott,

Two days after the supper at Chau-
diere's tx unimpetuCus routine of the
business quarter Of New Orleans was
rudely disturbed by the shock of
genuine sensation.
To shatter at single blow the most
venerable of the routine presidents,
the sensational thing chose for it's col
liding point with orderly system one
OF the oldest and most conservative
of the c.ty's banks-the Payou Stc.e

dressed himself to the business Of the
day. At half-past the hour the presi-
dent was left alone to read his cor.
respondence.
Being q man whose mertni proc
esses were all serious, and whose
hobby was method, Mr.. Galbraith had
established custom of giving himself
quiet half-hour Of inviolable seclu.
sion In which to read and consider
his mail. During this sacred interval
the stenographer, standing guard in
the outer office, had Instructions to
deny his chief to callers of any and
every degree. Wherefore, when, at
20 minutes to II, the door Of the pri'
vate office opened to admit a stranger,
the president was justly annoyed.

measure in a swift glance shot from
beneath his bushy white eyebrows.
The unannounced visitor was q
young man of rather prepossessing ap
pearance, a trifle tall far his breadth
of shoulder, fair, with blue eyes and a
curling, reddish beard and mustache
the former trimmed to a point. Sc
much the president was able to note
in the appraisive glance-and to re
member afterward.
The caller made no reply to the cur
question. He had turned and wal

she saw them she would have stood
aside, 1t was the robber who antici-
pated her intention and forbade 1t
with a courteous gesture; whereat she
turned again to the window to con-
clude her small transaction with the
teller.
The few moments which followed
we're terribly trying ones for the gray
haired president of the Bayou State
Security. None the less, his brain
was busy with the chanceful posi-
bilities. Failing all else, he was deter
mined to give the teller a warning
signal. come what might. 1t was a
duty owed to society no less than to
the bank and to himself. But on the
pinnacle of resolution, at the instant
when, with the robber at his elbow,
he stepped to the window and pre-
scented the check, Andrew Galbraith
felt the gentle pressure Of the pistol
muzzle against his side; nay, more
he fancied he could feel the cold chill
Of the metal strike through and
through him.
So it came about that the fine reso-
tuition had quite evaporated when he
said. with what composure there was
! In him: you'll please give me cur
rency for that. Johnson"
The teller glanced at the check and
then. at his superior; not too inquisi-
lively, since it was not his business
to question the presidents com.
mands.
"How will you have it," he asked ;
and 1t was the stranger at Mr.. Gal
1 braith's elbow who answered.
"One thousand in fives, tens and
twenties. Loose, If you please; the re-
mainder in the largest denominations
put up In a package
The teller counted out the one thou
sand in small notes quickly; but he
had to leave the cage and go to the
vault for the huge remainder. This
was the crucial moment OF peril fol
the robber, and the president. stealing
q glance at the face of his prosecutor
saw the blue eyes blazing with ex
element
1T Is your time to pray, Mr. Gal
braith." said the spoiler In low tones
III you have given your man the sig

But the signal had not been given
The teller was re-entering the cagt
with a bulky packet of money paper

had been Unmatched and the none,

Then it was that Mr., Andrew Ga
braith suddenly found speech. openin
his thin lips and pouring forth tor

hue and cry; and New Orleans the un
impetuous had its sensation ready
made.

CRIME INVESTIGATION.

MT. Fletcher Dobyns of Chicago says in a published statement that his investigations as attorney for the city council crime commission have influenced him to go out and fight the saloon as the greatest source of crime in Chicago. He asserts that almost all crimes are committed by abnormal persons, and that in tracing the source of these abnormalities he has found it to be, in large majority of cases, the liquor evil.
 Before I started my investigations in regard to crime" says MT Dobyns, T was not a total abstainer or an advocate of closing the saloons. But now I believe that alcoholic drinks do more than anything else toward creat- ing the abnormal person. We must face the liquor problem. I say it not as a prohibitionist, but as a student of crime.

NOT LIQUID BREAD.

In pamphlet entitled, "Alcohol and the Power of Resistance" distributed among the recruits of the German army, the following statement con- corning beer is made:
 There is no justification for calling beer liquid bread; a glass of heavy beer costing % pfennigs. has no more nourishment than a piece of cheese costing one pfennig Almost all ex- cesses and disturbances in the army are traced to drink. It is mostly beer that causes the mischief Beer is not the harmless drink that it is supposed to be"

 That the city and state are respcn- si1le for deliberately breaking down the resisting power of their citizens there no longer can be any question In other words, the problem of crime is not merely a matter of individual possibility Its prevention is question of social and civic obligation
