CHAPTER XIV.
The Dlrth of a City.
I.Ike criminals nl'rald of tho light,
and seeking the cover of darkness, a
score or the most distinguished men
or the United States, occupying Its
most responsible positions, and boar
lug the burden or government, came
to tho White Houbo, which loomod
massive and apparently untenanted.
They camo singly, obeying tho In
structions given them, loft tholr con
veyances at a distance, and wnlkod
uuutteuded to the dark portals, which
opened and closed behind thum. All
wore nwaro or tho portentous renson
for their visit, and tho ltuportnnco of
the utmost secrecy. Observant Indeed
would havo boon the forolgn spy who
could have surmised that they wero
gathorlng to dlscusB a plan Involving
tho defense of tho nation, or the ac.
ceptanco or a challenge to wnr.
Thero wero only two visitors who
camo togother, tho Invoutor nnd his
daughter, and thoy woro tho last to
ontor tho room, where thoso who pre
ceded them wero divided Into groups
round four olllcors of tlio navy, who
woro nnsworlug questions, quoting fig
ures and voluutoerlng details which
worn not writton. Tho men at tho
head or tho nation wero propnrlng to
plunge headlong into what under less
lmmodinto monnco would havo seemed
R con of roily ready to submergo them
nnd their country. ,
- ------ i
The cntranco or Norma was tho
signal for an abrupt halt In tho con
vocation, nnd some or those who were
not entirely familiar with tho part
which, she played In her father's work
looked at her disapprovingly.
He, interpreting these glances, In
troduced her as his assistant, nnd con
cluded by saying: "I can t do anything-
without hor. She knows moro
about my work tlian I do myself, and
na far as I know Bhe's tho only woman
living who can keep her mouth shut."
They smiled at his manner nnd cyni
cism, whllo tho president tendered hor
a seat at his sido and waited for the
others to resume tholr chairs.
"All or you aro ramlllar now with
the possibilities of the Invention
offered by Dr. lloberts"
"And his daughtor Norma," inter-'
Jected tho inventor.
Tho president accepted tho altera
tion and continued without a halt
"and havo gono over tho reports of
tho four most expert mon In tho
United Staates, who havo passed the
day with tho inventor and his daughter
In their laboratory, aro convinced of
tho merit nnd practicability of the
dlscovory, and havo prepared state
ments or what supplies would bo
needed,- the tlmo In which they could
bo obtained, and their approximate
cost."
There was a look or acquiescence,
and the Becrotnry or tho navy, who
hnd boon paying no heed whntever to
the elder executive's romarltB, rustled
tho reports In his hand us ho turned
another pugo to scan its contents. The
room became still acain. and tlm
flpoaker went on.
"Dr. lloberts tells us thnt ho does
not regard himself as lievond th i.
perlmental stage; but further experi
ments cannot decrease known vnlnns.
nnd may perhaps add to them. This
Invention as it Btnndu, In tho opinion
or the rour men who Jiavo passed tlm
day lu testing It, Is HUfllclcnt to en
able us within three months to com
bat succcsBrully any nut Ion which
might begin hostilities."
Norma looked at her father ndinlr.
ingly; but he seemed obilvlouu to all
tuoso round him. and Hat absorbed In
tllOURht. Ills OVOS lived In n lilntiV
Btaro or concentration Into space, and '
tno tiiutnbs or his clasped hands re
volving round each other nlmlcsslv.
Tho president reached over to a mass
or papers boforo him, roferred to Bomo
of them In quest of data, and then
looked very crave and earnest ns he
contmuoii in a. lower volco:
Extraordinary times ' demand n.v-
traordlnnry measures. AVe are with
out preeddont, and aro confronting an
emergency of Hitch lmmenso import
that tlioso of us who woro hero Inst
night believe It Is a time when all

oils must give way In behalf of nulck
accomplishment. Wo have no tlmo lu
which to sook special appropriations;
but must take It upon ourselves to
levy upon tho varioim budgetB which
nro now open for tho considerable
sums of monoy necessary to prosecute
this work."
Ono or two, who wero evldentlv late
arrivals and hnd not heard tho earlier
discussions, looked at each other with
some hesitation. It was hard to drop
rouuno nnu (tin into i ii. nat on'H
treasury on such rfliort consideration.
Tho high dignity of tho presiding of-
ncor, nowovor, forbade any Interrupt
Hon, and ho went on unchallenged.
"Tho ahsoluto preservation of our
secret is recognized by nil as a vital
necessity, and to obviate all leakages
tho membors or the army and navy
board suggest that our work bo car
rlcd on in -ono of tho moRt secluded of
tho Florida keys. On tills they pur
pose to erect a plant adequate to cast
and perfect this motnl on which we de
pend, nnd as rapidly as possible apply
It to tho vosboIb or our navy, which
will be Rent thero as quickly as prepa
rations can bo mado Tor their recep
tion." Norma, who had not been lnformod
of this part or tho project, gavo a
Btart or protest, foreseeing that she,
too, would havo to Bharo In this Isola
tion and become an oxile until the ex
periments wero concluded. Her father
turned a questioning look toward her,
and then reached over and patted her
hand In sympathy. The president was
steadily summing up tho situation.
"The navy department will attend
to purchasing supplies, Including ma.
chlnery nnd crude motals necessary
for tho first work, whllo Dr. Roberts
will place his orders for apparatus,
nnd all will bo consigned to the collier
Penobscot, which will trnusport them
to the chosen spot. Tho gunboat Hnr
per will accompany hor, nnd will bo
the first boat to bo experimented upon
und equipped with tho now plntes.
Itear Admiral Hroekton will bo as
Blgned to hor command for tho pres
ent. These two Bhlps will Bail from
Now York harbor, together with a
small transport which will carry such
engineers nnd mechanics ns tho navy
department may select for a work of
this importance. Communication will
be maintained by such moans as seem
best to Admiral Hroekton, and moro
inn and supplies will be dispatched
from tlmo to tlmo ns required. It Is
needless to sny thnt the entlro experi
mental work, tho casting- of tho plates,
and tho gonornl supervision of every
thing, will bo under tho direction of
Dr. ltoborts."
"And his aBnistant," tho Inventor
ugalp intorjected.

heaven above and Hie earth beneath in
six days and six nights, I do swear
that 1 will, without respect of favor or
friendship, loss or gain, consanguinity
or nihility, envy or malice, execute tho
laws of this isle Justly between party,
and party as Indifferently ns tho her
ring backbone doth lie in the midst ot
the fish. So help me God, and tho
((intents of this book."
