a response from within. None came
and for a second time his knuckles
fell upon the panel. Hearing him
this time the girl listened, sat up in
her bed and then called out demand

of the old Indian came family through
the door.

With little cry Ethel sprang from
the bed. Thrustins her feet into her
slippers, she drew on a wrap and
throwing the door ajar breathlessly
asked what had happened. Silently he
led to the lean-to, opened the door and
pointed at the bed. Then still un-
speaking but indicating by motions
that the window had been open he
stood immobile as he watched her face
Greatly alarmed and wholly puzzled
at the mystery of 1t all, the girl stepped
back into the living room and opened

of Davis lurched heavily into the room.

SYNOPSIS.

John Carr. miner. commits suicide. His
will directs his nephews, John Davis and
Hawk Morgan, to work his gold mine
and names them as joint guardians of
his adopted daughter, Ethel. He specifies
that certain sums shall be paid to Ethel,
his nephews and two servants and that
the remaining profits shall be used for
the benefit of the John Carr Foundation
for the support of war widows and Or
phans. Morgan proposes disregarding the
latter clause and dividing the profits He
quarrels with Davis over the proposition
and later attempts his life
Morgan, on the roof of the lean-to,
again thrusts with his lance at the
breast of the PROSTATE John upon his
bunk below. Again the point of the
great bowie knife just grazed him as
John, by a desperate twist of his arm,
diverted it, allowing it to plunge it
self into the mattress upon which he
lay.
Just as the knife buried itself in
the mattress 1t was violently swayed
sidewise and stood there quivering, as
though the long rake handle to which
1t was strapped had been released by
the hands which had held 1t from
above.
As Morgan upon the roof made his
last shove with the lance at the one
below whom he was endeavoring to
slay, from out of the darkness lariat
came whistling and tightened over his
shoulders as he knelt there. From
the ground there came vicious jerk

WHAT WE SHOULD HAVE

Next to filtration. the city of Wheel
ing needs good streets. The first thing
that every visitor to the city sees Is the
dilapidated condition Of our principal
streets. Wheeling IS on the line Of one
Of the great transcoatinental highways.
Thousands Of tourists pass over the
streets Of the city every year. and the
impression they obtain from the pres
ent conditions of our streets Is certainly
not flatterinS one.
We ought to put in a filtration plant.
which we can do at cost Of about
100000.
We ought to spend 100000 on our
streets within the next two or three
years. This work might we'll begin
now.
A bond issue prepared along these
lines Will have the support. The Inteni-
gencer believes. Of the large majority
Of our citizens.

A RIDICULOUS MIX-UP

The unsecmly squabble between Di-
rector General Hines Of the railroads on
one hand and Secretary Of Commerce
ReaAsad and Mr.. Peek Of the Federal
Trades board on the other. furnishes a
fine illustration of how not to do things.
It would be laughable If the great iron
and steel business Of the country was
NOT suffering incalculable loss through
the uncertainty and delay which their
differences have caused. Mr.. Redneld and
Mr. Peek have practically commanded
the iron and steel makers to agree to
certain prices for their products The
/ prices have been fixed in conference
;: with the representatives Of the depart
nent of commerce, and have received
their approval. Mr.. Hines, as director
GENERAL Of the railroads. refuses to pay
the prices for iron and steel materials
that the government has fixed. and de-
mQpdS Stlll lower PftSeSb GIN NS ~
deadlock is caused. not only stopping
railroad purchases, but also influencing
other customers who anticipate that OF
: Mr.. Hines is successful. prices for iron
and steel generally will be still further
reduced.
A. tho nreaent time many Of the
higher cost makers Of pig iron and OF
iron and steel products arc barely able
10 operate with little profit. If at all.
Further reduction in price will mean
either a shutdown Of these plants or an
attempt to reduce wages: The deadlock
continues, with no promise OF solution.
and in the meanwhile the entire BUSH
ness, employing nearly million men,
is practically paralyzed.
