CHAPTER VI. Continued.
As Barbara and Grlswold turned to
leave, a young man who had been
writing a message at the standing
desk in the lobby lifted his hat and
addressed Barbara. lie was a re
porter for the Columbia Intelligencer,
and his manner was eager.
"Oh, Miss Osborne, pardon me, but
I've been trying to get you on the
telephone. Can you tell me where
your father Is to-night?"
"Father was In town only a few
hours, nnd then loft on state busi
ness." "May I ask If It's tho Applewelght
ense? The Raleigh papers have wired
for Information and we'd like to know
here."
"I cannot answer that question. It's
enough that the governor is absent on
state business and that the buBlnesa
Is important. You may print that tn
tho Intelligencer and repeat It to
Ualelgh. Thero Is no harm In that. I
Miss Osborne?"
"No; certainly not," Barbara re
plied. "But the papers all over the state
are talking about the Applewelght
gang. They intimate that those peo
ple enjoy immunity from prosecution
and that the governor you will par
don me, Miss Osborne will take no
steps to arrest them for personal rea
sons." "Your question Is quite proper," re
plied Orlswold. "The governor's acta
are subject to scrutiny at all times
and it is Just as well to have this mat
ter understood now. I am employed
by the governor as special counsel in
Bomo state matters. My name Is Gris
wold. Take out your book and come
to the desk here and I will give you a
statement which you mny publish as
by the authority of the governor."
The three found scats at a table
and Orlswold dictated while the re
porter wrote, Barbara meanwhile sit
ting with her cheek resting ngalnst
her ralsod bund. She was experienc
ing the relief we all know, of llndlng
a strong arm to lean upon In an
emergency, and she realized that Orls
wold was not only wise, but shrewd
and resourceful.
"Please print this exactly as I give
It: It having been intimated In cer
tain quarters that the Applewelght
gang of outlaws, which has been ter
rorizing th" North Carolina frontier
for several years, enjoys immunity
from prosecution In South Carolina
owing to tl fact that Gov. Osborne
was at some time attorney for Apple
weight, Gov. Osborne begs to say that
steps have already been taken for the
arrest of this man and his followers,
dead or alive. Tho governor presents
his compliments to those amiable crit
ics who have so eagerly seized upon
this pretext for slurring his private
character and aspersing his official
acts. The governor has no apologies
to proffer tho people of South Caro
lina, who have so generously reposed
In him their trust and confidence. He
Is intent upon safe-guarding the
penco, dignity and honor of the state
through an honest enforcement of law
and he has no other aim or ambi
tion." Orlswold took the reporter's note
book nnd read over this pronuncia
mento; then he handed It to Barbara,
who studied It cnrefully.
"I think It sounds Just right, only,
why not substitute for 'honest' the
word 'vigorous'?"
"Kxcrllent," nHsented Orlswold, and
thus amended tho statement was re
turned to the reporter.
"Now," said Orlswold to the young
man, "you are getting a pretty good
Item that no other paper will have.
Please wire your story to Ualelgh;
Gov. Osborne Is very anxious that the
people up there shall understand fully
his nttttudo In the Applewelght mat
ter." "I reckon this will wake up old Dan
gerfleld all right," said the reporter,
grinning. "He'll be paralyzed. May
I us your name In this connection,
sir?"
"Not at all. My engagement with
Gov. Osborne is of tho most confi
dential character and our purposes
would be defeated by publicity. Re
member, you get the exclusive use of
this story the return and immediate
departure of the governor, his state
ment to t ho people in tho Applewelght
case all with the understanding that
you use what you have to the best ad
vantage." 'This Is all right, is it, Miss On
borne?" n.sked the reporter.
"MaJ. Gilawold has full authority
to uet, and you need question nothing
he tells you," Barbara replied.
'I suppose the governor didn't sne
the attorney general to-day?'' nskt d
the reporter detaining, Barbara
rose. Hlie exchanged a glance with
Triswo'.d.
"Father didn't see Mr. Bosworth at
all, if tint's what you inau!"
"Didn't see him? Well, Bosworth
didn't exactly tell me he had seen
him to-day, but I asked him about the
Applewelght case an hour ago at his
house and hn said the governor wasn't
going to di anything and that was th
end of It so far as the administration
la concerned."
"Print his story and see what hap
pens! We have no comment to make
on that, have we. Miss Osborne?"
"Nothing at all," replied Barbara
scornfully.
"I'm at the Saluda limine at present.
See me to-morrow and I may have an
other story for you!" and Orlswold
shook the reporter warmly by the
hand bh they parted at the carriage
door.
"Home," said Barbara for the re
porter's benefit, and then, to Orls
wold: "I must spenk of another mut
ter. Drive with me a little way until
we enn throw the reporter off."
She spoke quietly, but he saw that
the was preoccupied with Home new
phase of the situation, and as tho car
riage gained headway she said earn
estly: "That young man told the trtitli I
am sure of It about Mr. Bosworth. I
knew he would do something to in
jure father if he could, but I did not
know he had the courage to ro so
far."
They were now at ttie edge of the
town and she bade him stop the car
riage. "We must go to the stateliouse,"
said Orlswold. "We must get that
requisition, to guard against treason
In the citadel. Assuming that Oov.
Osborne really doesn't want to see
Applewelght punished we'd better
hold the requisition anyhow. It's
possible that your father had It ready
do pardon me! for a grandstand
play, or he may have wanted to bring
Applewelght into t ho friendlier state;
but that's all conjectural. We'd bet
ter keep out of the principal streets.
That reporter has a sharp eye."

of keen wit who did not debnte mat
ters or ask tiresome questions. The
business ahead was serious enough,
though he tried by manner, tone and
words to minlmizo Its gravity.
"Have you the office keys?" he
asked.
"Yes; I have been afraid to let go
of them. There's a watchman in tho
building, but he knows me very well.
Thero will not be the slightest trou
ble about getting in."
The watchman an old confederate
veteran sat smoking In the entrance
and courteously bade them good even
ing. "I want to get some papers from fa
ther's office, captain."
"Certainly, Miss Barbara." He pre
ceded them, throwing on the lights,
to tho governor's door, which he
opened with his own pass key. "It s
pretty lonesome here nt night, Miss
Barbara."
"I suppose nobody comes at night."
remarked Griswold.
"Not usually, sir. But one or two
students are at work In the library,
and Mr. Bosworth is In his olllce."
Tlie veteran walked away Jingling
his keys. - Barbara was already In the
piivnte olllce bending over the gov
ernor's desk. She found the right
key, drew out n drawer, then cried
out softly. She knelt beside the desk,

here a moment. I want to make some

He found tho old fellow pacing the
portico like a sentry. IIo po'nted out

n few additional lights for Grlswold's
guidance, and resumed his patrol duty
outside.

knock it was opened guardedly.
"I am very sorry to trouble you, Mr.
Bosworth," began Orlswold, quietly
edging his way Into the room, "but
one never gets wholly nwny from busi
ness these dn.vs."
He closed the door himself, and
peered Into the inner rooms to be
sure tlie attorney general was alone.
Bosworth's face flushed angrily when
he found that a stranger had thus en
tered his office with a cool air of pro
prietorship. "Who the devil are you?" he de
manded, glaring.
"I'm special counsel for Gov. Os
borne in the Applewelght case.
There's no use In wasting time In fur

"Yon are undoubtedly lying. If
you are smart enough to write a book

Bosworth grinned, but not at the
legal status of monarchs and Btates.
He had thought of a (lever stroke and
he dealt the blow with confidence.
"Let us assume," lie said, "thnt you
represent Mr. Osborne. May I ask
tlie whereabouts of your client?"
"Certainly. You may ask anything
you please, but it will do you no good.
It's an old rule of the game never to

The attorney-general felt that he
was not making headway. His disad

Orlswold had sought him out, and he
was chagrined at having allowed him

NEW ERA IH FINANCE
ACCURACY AND PUBLICITY
PROVES TO BE A POPULAR
MOTTO.
Prompt R.tponse to Bold Move of
President Vail "Accuracy" Reduc
ed Western Union's Surplus $13,
OO0.CCO "Publicity" Restored Con
fidence and Ma Stock Went Up.
Are the great financiers of the
country beginning to see a new light?
Time was, until recently in fact, when
the men at the head of the big cor
porations "kept thtlr business to
themselves," as far ns the law would
allow. Capable men at the head of tha
big concerns, long realized the weak
ness of their position, but what was
needed obviously, as In all great re
forms, waB an unmistakable occasion
and a courageous man. The occasion
arose in the purchase of the Western
Union Telegraph company by the
American Telephone and Telegraph
company, nnd the man appeared rn
Theodore N. Vail. President of the
purchasing corporation.
It was last December when public
announcement was made that tho
Gould holdings of Western Union had
been taken over by the Telephone
company.
On account of the high esteem In
which the management of the tele
phone company is so generally held,
great things were predicted as a re
sult of the absorption of Western
Union. By the press of the country
the "deal" was most favorably com
mented on. It beine wldeiv rinlnfpd
out that under the direction of such
men as Theodore N. Vail and his as
sociates, the telegraph company was
bound soon to work Itself into & po
sition where it could offer the public
far more efficient service than It had
ever before been able to offer.
But a very few months had elapsed
when it became apparent to the new
management that a modern and up-to-date
appraisal of the company's
assets would make possible a far
greater degree of efficiency of oper
ation. "Here," they said to them
selves, "we've bought control of this
property and we know It's immensely
valuable, but we don't know just
how valuable. These appraisals of
real estate and securities owned were
made a long time ago. If we have
a complete inventory made of every
thing we've got we can announce the
facts to the public, start a new set of
books, and begin our responsibility
to stockholders right there."
How Inventory Was Taken.
The most expert accountants and
appraisers to be had were put at the
task. Their labors lasted over eight
months. Their report and its publi
cation by the company marks an ep
och in finance.
It began by recommending an ad
justment of the difference between
the appraised and book values by a
charge of $5,595,0S9 against sur
plus. Book values of securities held
were reduced to market values, bad
and doubtful accounts wero "charg
ed off," an allowance of $2,000,000
was made for "depreciation," another
of $500,000 for "reserve," and so on.
until the old surplus of $18,867,000
came down to $5,136,000.
It required courage, the publication
of this statement to stockholders, say
ing in effect: "The property of
your company has been reval
ued: the surplus isn't nineteen mill
ions, as you have been led to be
lieve, but five millions," but It was
the truth, and President Vail did not
flinch. "Accuracy ana publicity," he
declared, was essential. "The stock
holder has a right to know. The
shares of this company are scatter
ed from one end of the Union to the
other. This Is more than a private
corporation. It is a great national
enterprise. The public Is entitled to
the facts."
The report was ordered published
forthwith. Financiers of the old
school and speculators generally were
aghast What would happen? Would
the bottom drop out of Western
Union when the shareholders realiz
ed that their propetry was worth
$13,000,000 less than they had sup
posed? But the amazing thing
happened. The stock went up and
stayed up. The public had respond
ed to this remarkable display of
frankness and confidence; to the new
motto, "Accuracy and Publicity."
The full significance of the action
of the new board is stated concisely
by Harper's Weekly In these words:
"Is this policy of publicity and of
open-handed dealing with sharehold
ers and public tho forerunner of a
similar movement on the part of oth
er big corporations? Certainly it la
to be hoped that It is. In the case
of these big companies, dependent
upon public patronage and doing busi
ness under public franchise, can
there be any question of the right of
the people to know?
"That right is being recognized.
It Is recognized now in this epochal
act on the part of the telephoue and
telegraph Interests. It Is the dawn
of a new era In corporation finance."
Tlmel'neti.
All measures uf reformation are ef
fective In exact proportion to their
timeliness; partial decay may be cut

corrected; but there Is a point at
which corruption can no more be

RED CROSS SEAL IN HISTORY
First Uaed During the American Civil
War Now an Aid In Fight
ing Tuberculosis. -
Red Cross Christmas seals date
back In their origin to "charity
stamps," Crst used for the soldiers'
relief funds In Boston In 1862, during
the Civil war. After the war, this
method of raising money was discon
tinued In this country for a genera
tion, although It found vogue In Por
tugal, Switzerland, Australia, France,
Bpaln, Denmark, Norway, Russia,
Sweden and other Kuropean coun
tries. There are now several hun
dred different types of charity stamps
used In all parts of the world.
Stamps or seals were first used to
get money for the antituberculosis
crusade In Norway and Sweden In
1904. After being used In these coun
tries for three years, as a direct re
sult of the Interest of Jacob Rils In
this movement, the Delaware Antl
Tuberculosls association, headed by
Miss Emily P. BIssell, and the Red
Cross society of Delaware combined
in Issuing a tuberculosis stamp. So
successful was this campaign that
nearly $.1,000 was realized, and the
next year, In 1908, the American Red
Cross was induced to issue a national
Red Cross tuberculosis stamp. From
this sale, $135,000 was realized, that
amount being almost doubled In 1909.
This year, for the first time, the sale
Is organized on a comprehensive
basis, taking la all parts of the
United States. A million for tuber
culosis work is confidently expected.
Significance in Names.
In an Illinois town a workingman
having been Informed that a sixth
baby had arrived at his home, ex
claimed: "Sufficient," and his neigh
bors, referring to his having given
that name Sufficient to the new
arrival, credited him with originality.
The Incident resembles a case nearer
home, adds the New York Tribune.
A New York family was blessed with
nine daughters, when the stork
brought a tenth one. It was in the
days when the slang term for an oft
told story was a "chestnut," and as
the baby certainly came under that
head she received the name, but for
suphony's sake the French for the
word was employed, and she was
called Marron.

THEY GROW
Good Humor and Cheerfulness From
Right Food and Drink.
Anything that interferes with good
health is apt to keep cheerfulness and
good humor in the background. A
Washington lady found that letting
coffee alone made things bright for
her. She writes:
"Four years ago I was practically
given up by my doctor and was not ex
pected to Ave long. My nervous sys
tem was In a bad condition.
"But I was young and did not want
to die so I began to look about for the
cause of my chronic trouble. I used to
tave nervous spells which would ex
haust me and after each spell it would
take me days before I could sit up lu a
chair.
"I becarao convinced my trouble was
caused by coffee. I decided to stop it
and bought some Postura.
"The first cup, which I made accord
ing to directions, had a soothing ef
fect on my nerves and I liked the taste.
For a time I nearly lived on Postum
and ate llttU fuod besides. I am today
a healthy woman.
"My family and relatives wonder If
I am the same person I was four years
ago, when I could do no work on ac
""nt of nt rvoii.-nt ss. Now I am do
ng uiy OA r i.M-uork, care of

It all with Hie cheorlulnes". and good
humor that conies from enjoying good
health.
"I tell my friends it U to Postum I
owe my life today."

The Hunter Sure It Is! You'd be

Anyway Eve never had occasion to
