have favored the little giant.
After this it is not surprising
that he wanted a change and
tried TO run away from it all by
going alone to South Africa.
He went as a tourist and as such
he visited one of the biggest dia-
mond mines in the world. He
found out that shipments of un-
cut stones went from the mine
by stagecoach TO Cape Town, ar
irving there just in time TO catch
a ship for London.
Worth figured that If for
some reason the coach missed the
boat. the diamonds would be
placed in the vault of the Cape
Town post office till the next
boat sailed. He made the &C
uuaintance of the postmaster and
ripened the contact into a drink
ing companionship.
Then he mailed himself three
express packages to the care OF
the postmaster. One evening
when the packages arrived after
the closing time Worth begged
the postmaster to do him the
urgent service" of getting the
packages out of the vault. even
though it was after hours.
The postmaster obliged and
took Worth with him to the
vault. AS the postmaster was
about to put the key Of the vault
into the lock Worth managed "a
slight accident" that knocked the
keys out of the postmaster's
hands. Before the man could pick
them up Worth did 1t and handed
them to him with an apology. In
the moment Worth handled the

the unbearable loss of the only
woman for whom he ever really
cared. He transferred his love
to a canvas woman whom he
could keep for his very own and
strangely enough, it passed from
him into the hands of the same
man who had taken Kitty away
from him. Through life he car
ried the torch for Kitty but, just
once, he almost put 1t down.
Meanwhile he was partially di-
verified for a while by business
problems. While their great
commander was mourning, the
gang scattered and soon got into
trouble. Billiard had ventured a
trip to America. was caught and
sent to prison for the Boylston
Bank robbery Worth sent a
huge sum of money TO gang Of
experts in America together with
a detailed plan for Billiards.
rescue from prison. Billiard
escaped but was caught by Pink
ertons men and imprisoned
again.
John Chapman, Little Joe Reilly,
Becker and Carlo Sescovitch,
new conner, went to Smyrna,
Turkey. to cash in on a lot of
Chapman's beautiful engravings
Of Bank of England notes,
But William Pinkerton was in
Smyrna, too. at the time, and it
was no coincidence.
When the gang entered
Smyrnas leading bank a squad
of Turkish detectives closed in
on them. At Pinkerton's sug-
gestion they were held in
Smyrnas strongest prison.
When Worth got word of the
:, arrest he at once looked about
for some beautiful woman who
would be a good actress, UNI
scrupulous and insensitive about
herself. He thought he knew
exactly the woman for the role
and went to Little Joes wife,
whom, however, he had not met.
She was Kate Castleton, musical
comedy star, who later became
the toast Of Broadway.
He approached the subject
carefully, now that he saw her
face to face My name is Doyle"
he said, Il am a friend of your
husband but I haven't seen him
for some time"
I'm so glad you came Mr..
Doyle" she exclaimed. I'm
worried about him. He's travel
ing a wine salesman, as you
probably know. But from his
last letter from Turkey I'm
afraid he's drinking. Because his
letter sounds so vague. Unlike
his other letters. See what you
make Of it,"
Joe's letter was indeed vague,
saying something about being de-
tanned ION business that may
take a long time"
Worth rose to leave. u think
friend of mine is going to
Smyrna soon. I'll ask him to
look Joe up and will let you
know what ! hear | have an idea
JOEL be back soon. Good-by"
Convinced that Kate Castleton
was too high principled TO serve
his purpose, Worth then went TO
see John Chapman's wife, Lydia
Chapmans face was the kind
that artists like TO paint on ivory
miniatures, beautiful, sensitive,
ethereal. In reality she was
grasping, self-centred, unscru-
pulous. Worth gave her money
and instructions. Then she left
for Smyrna.
There she went 10 the warden
Of the prison where the gang
was, bringing with her a hamper
Of some food and much wine

John Worth and the court was
forced 10 free the youth. The
Judge did so with the condition
that he must leave England with
in thirty days!
Adam Worth saw his brother
off 10 America and got him out
of his mind. He was about TO
return the Duchess of Devon
shire, when Junka stopped him.
Worth knew he would, and saw
10 it that the interview took
place on board the Shamrock,
when no one else was present,
and after he had set the stage
for the scene that was coming.
Junka demanded. COW about
my alf of the Duchess ?"
How much ?" Worth asked
lone 'undred thousand pounds. /"
lone hundred is all you get"
Junka had also given some
thought TO this meeting and
showed it by his next remark:
'Lahst time you it me in the
belly. Let's see you try it again.
III learn yert''
So saying he bent his tall
powerful body almost double as
he advanced on the diminutive
American, with both fists eX-
tended far in front Of him. As
soon as one of those fists came
within reach, Worth pulled it
forward so suddenly that Junka
fell on his face.
Instantly Adam was jumping
on his back with both feet. When
Junka turned his head, Adam de-
livered the knockout by q kick
on the point of the big mans
chin. When Junka recovered his
wits he was trussed to an up
right with ships rope. Worth was
sighting a camera at him. JuHka

ropes.
Worth said, you know, Junka,

yours, you'll starve for lack of
business. If / ever have any
trouble with you again there will
be photograph of this in every

Junka never troubled Worth
again.
But the portrait of the
Duchess of Devonshire did, When
in the privacy of its many hiding
places Worth looked at it again
and again, the beauty of the
woman grew on him. At a
pcrilous price Worth was owner
and now the only beholder of it.
Adam Worth was a very rich
man who could afford the luxury
Of owning such a painting had it

The warden tried to console
her and succeeded. In the pro-
cess he made her drink some of
the wine she brought and drank
some himself. They spent more
evenings of the kind together.
Each time she brought more
wine.
One night when they were
alone the warden drank wine in
which Lydia had put a sleeping
drug. When the warden lost
consciousness Lydia secured his
keys and unlocked the doors Of
the cells. where the gang was
waiting for the moment.
They were climbing the prison
wall when a guard saw them and
the night was blasted with the
clangor of alarm. Instead Of
making for the railroad the gang
had 10 take to the wild country.
They had just climbed a noun
tain road when they were con-
fronted by a band of morose
looking men who took them pris-
oner. Through an interpreter the
gang learned that they were in
the hands of highwaymen. The
Turks let Little Joe go with a
message to Worth.
1t would cost him fifty thou
sand dollars if he wanted his
gang back.
Worth tried no tricks with the
mountaineers. He sent the money
promptly.
The gang returned to London
eager TO work for Worth again.
Particularly anxious to do so
was Sescovitch. He was a power
fully built Tartar with a talent
for involved viliainy. Worth did
not like his looks, so Sescovitch
tried to make a favorable i'm
preston on him. Several days
after the gang was back in Lon
don, Sescovitch came to Worth.
Il just spent the weekend
with the Chapmans, he said.
AT least with Lydia. John s
away for a few days. l don't
know if you realize it but Lydia
was planning to blackmail you
for good bit of money. She said
she'd talk loud if you didn't keep
her mouth shut with money"
"So?" Worth asked, eying
Sescovitch.
Well, you needn't worry She's
dead"
Worth slowly rose. Tell me"
"Oh. she had a headache and
took some medicine and it must
have been the medicine that
killed her"
Worth came over to him. Did
you have anything to do with
it,"
Maybe" Sescovitch smiled.
The word almost cost him his
life. For Worth choked him al
most TO death. In fact he came
so close that it seems he meant
TO kill him.
This was an outstanding ex-
ception in the life Of man who
never countenanced killing, who
never carried a weapon nor per-
mitted any of his men 20 do so,
even on their most dangerous
crimes. There must have been
some outstanding reason and all
his gang wondered for some
time.
Finally the explanation came
from an American prison where
Charley wrote that he had re-
ceived a letter from Adam say
ing that the boss had found a
woman who might make him for

And now, one Of his own men
had snatched her from him by
murder. Luck seems rarely to

and stir until the mixture begins

OPA Explains Point System
Questions and Answers Make Clear
Cause, Method Of Food RatiOning

processed condition. Canned foods,
for example, keep as long as they
remain sealed; frozen foods as
long as they remain frozen.
Q. Are jams, jellies and MARINA
ladies' included?
A. No. These are not generally
used INTERCHANGEABLE with canned
fruits.
@. Why are foods that are not
used extensively included in the
rationing program?
A. To preserve for consumers
as wide choice of foods as pos
sible in spending their ration
points.
Q. Is evaporated milk included
in the new rationing program?
"A. No canned milk is not being
rationed in this program.
| @. What do the numbers on the
ratlon stamp mean!
A. The numbers on the stamps
e, 5, 2 and y show how much
the stamp is worth in points"
@. What is a point?
A. A point is a ration value,
much as dollars and cents are
money values. Rationed foods
have both point and money values.
@. Why are the stamps of diff
ferent colors?
A. The blue stamps will be used
for rationing processed foods; the
red stamps will be used later for
meat rationing.
@. What do the letters on the
stamps mean?
A. The letters on the stamps
will be used by the OPA to desig-
nate the time during which a
stamp is valid. For example,
stamps lettered A, B and C could
be designated for use during the
first ration period.
@. Why is it necessary to give
different point values to different
kinds of processed foods? Why
can't they all have the same point
value?
A. Low point values will be
given to foods that are relatively
plentiful; high point values to
those that are most scarce. The
buyer can get more for his
points" by buying the foods with
low point value. Since most
housewives will no doubt do this,
it will relieve the demand for
very scarce foods.

The Office of Price Administra-
ton has released the following
questions and answers, explaining
point rationing for canned, bot
tied and frozen fruits and vege-
tables, fruit and vegetable juices,
dried fruits and soups:
@. Why does the Government
ration all of the listed canned
foods together?
A. If only the canned foods that
are more scarce were rationed,
consumers would rush to buy the
unrationed foods which could be
used instead. This would create
shortages of the alternate foods,
which would then have to be ra-
toned after the supply had been
seriously depleted.
@. What foods are included in
the new rationing program?
A. Canned, bottled and frozen
fruits and vegetables, fruit and
vegetable juices, dried fruits, and
all canned soups. These are
known as "processed" foods.
Q. Just what is a processed food :?
A. A processed food is one that
has been preserved so that it will
keep as long as it stays in its

A Hint To The
Rockville Scouts

AS their part in the campaign
to save rubber, the 80 cubs of a
Boy Scout troop in Bethesda, have
pledged themselves to keep the
streets in the neighborhood free
from broken glass.
They have made collection bins,
one for every other block in the
area, from oil cans. These are
painted a vivid red and nailed to
stakes, which are then driven in
the ground. A homemade dustpan
and brush is at each bin.
After school every afternoon the
boys patrol the streets and sweep
up all broken glass and deposit
it in the bins which are emptied
once a week.
