Center, Win Heagy Loss ofLife, German Work

After all, Imperial Germany pos
sessed a numbering sense Of the the
atrica1. It had realized that the little
newborn town Of Hopewell, Virginia,
sheltered hundreds Of men drawn
from the laboring classes, uneducat-
ed, ignorant save of the work they
We're paid for, foreign to large ex-
tent and among these men were
those in whose minds ran the super
stitioug strain which breeds faith in
the occult and fortune-tellers In
the hands Of a clever fortune teller
these men might be made to talk
without realizing that they were CIV
ing away information to the hidden
enemy OF America This was the
explanation Of the presence Of Bar
oness Theresa verbecht in Hopewell
as arbitress Of destinies in the guise
of Madame LaVere, Mystic. In one
Of the myriad clapboarded shacks Of
Hopewell she ladled out the mysteries
of the future and the wel1-known
facts Of the present with lavish hand,
and drank in all the information she
could CLEAN by clever questioningNand
suggestion, from the superatitious
who passed in never ending lines
through the doors Of her emporium

Germany Deeply Interested in the
~ Town OF HoPeweII.
Hopeweu held much of interest for
Germany. Little more than q year
before it's site had been unploughed
fields over which the winds blew in
broad sweeps bending the green
grasses in soft undulations and bob
bling the heads Of wildf1owers that
dotted the fields. Soon with wars
shadows growing deeper over Eu-
rope the call had come from the al
lies for explosives. The fields had
been cleared and a great guncotton
factory spread. its broad stretches
over the ground where the wildflow-
ers had bobbed. And about the fac
tory sprang up town, or rather a

guncotton is a thing to be respected
whether in the NAV Of q cannon In

The town was a hit and miss at
fair, a similitude Of western towns
which sprang up over night in the
days Of gold rushes. Its streets, q
crowded mass of implanted shacks,
Iean-tos, and tents; cheap hotels, sub
rosa gambling places, in fact all the
attributes of the town OF mushroom
growth peopled with the pblyglot
population of manufacturing town
Of America, the melting pot Of the
races.
The day that Madame Stephan and
Won Lertz, fleeing from Exeter real
lied that the plot which they had
unanswered to what seemed unques-
tionable success, had failed, Franz
Won Papen received a. telegram from
Madame LaVere. f.. -.
Everything O. K. send me good
man for dangerous work"
The Telegram so tersely worded
meant more than words could con-
vey. It meant that after weeks Of
work Baroness Verbrecht had learned
as much as possible about the gun
cotton factory, its orders, its guards,
it's shipments and it's most vulnerable
points. -~.
A week passed before the baroness
received a Reply in any form. Then
one morning the tapestry curtains
Of her fortune telling parlor parted
to admit none other than the sane
timonious J. B. Dollings. Dollings
had closed up his undertaking es-
tablisbment in Exeter with what
NIGH" have seemed undue haste to
those unacquainted with his reasons
for seeking other parts.
Captain Won Papen regrets the
delay in complying with your tele-
graphed request" Dollings assured
the baroness, who showed a tendency
to be a little angered over the time
lost. Canada was engaging his at

he spoke.
