FOUND TIME FOR AMENITIES;
How British and Boers Exchanged
Compliments During the Long
Siege of Kimberley.
During the Boer war Mr. Rhodes
was shut up in Kimberley, and the
Boers constantly shelled the town with |
long-range artillery. They were not ,
very successful, for with 300 big shells j
they only killed 12 people,
is Meantime, Mr. Rhodes accomplished j
the extraordinary feat of getting a
cannon built at his works inside the
town. It was a regular modern rifled
gun, and fired shells—also homemade
—on each of which was stamped,
.“With compliments of C. J. Rhodes.”
The Boers themselves were not
without a sense of humor. During (
Christmas, 1899, they were besieging
Ladysmith, and on Christmas eve they
Bred ten plugged shells into the town,
each with a piece of plum pudding in
side, and each bearing the words,
"With the season's compliments.”
Two of the shells were found by the
garrison, and it was discovered that,
like Mr. Rhodes’, they were home- •
made, having been cast in a foundry
«t Johannesburg.
A Substitute River.
One of the perplexing problems en
countered by coaches of the various
“varsity” racing shell crews, that of
providing better means for winter
training than is offered by the ordi
nary rowing machine, has been met
satisfactory at Syracuse university
through the installation of an indoor
rowing tank, provided with mechani
cal means for simulating the passage
of the boat through the water. This
provides what might almost be called
actual rowing, besides keeping the
men in condition.—Popular Mechanics

the Boule Cabinet |

CHAPTER XI—(Continued).
Rogers was still sitting dejectedly
on the cot and looking at him more
closely, I could see that he was white
and shaken. His trouble, whatever Its
nature, plainly lay heavy on his mind.
“Have you anything to tell us this
evening, Rogers?" I asked, kindly, but
he only shook his head.
'Tve told you everything I know,
sir,” he answered in a low voice.
“I’m not going to hurry you, Rog
ers." I went on, "but I want you to
think it over. You can rely upon me
to help you, if I can.”
He looked up quickly, but caught
himself and turned his eyes away.
“Thank you, sir,” was all he said.
“And now,” I added, briskly, "I’ll
have to ask you to get up. Move
the cot away from the door, Parks.”
Parks obeyed with astonished face.
"You’re not going in there, sir?” he
protested, as I turned the knob.
“Yes, we are," I said and opened
the door. “Is—is” • • •
“No, sir,” broke in Parks, under
standing. “The undertakers brought
the coffin and put him in it and moved
him over to the drawing room this
afternoon, sir.”
"I'm glad of that. I want all the
lights lit, Parks, Just as they were last
night.”
Parks reached inside the door and
switched on the electrics. Then he
went away, came back in a moment
with a taper and proceeded to light
the gas lights. A moment later tho
lights in the inner room were also
blazing.
"There you are, sir,” said Parks, and
retreated to the door. "Will you need
me?”
“Not now, but wait in the hall out
side. We may need you. I had a no
tion to tell him to have an ax handy,
but I saw Godfrey smiling.
“Very good, sir,” said Parks, evi
dently relieved, and ' went out and
closed the door.
I led the way into the inner room.
“Well, there it is,” I said and nodded
toward the Boule cabinet, standing in
the full glare of the light, every ir.lay
and incrusation glittering like the
eyes of a basilisk. “It isn't too late
to give it up, Godfrey."
“Oh, yes, it is,” he said, coolly, re
moving his coat. “It was too late the
moment you told me that story. Why,
Lester, if I gave it up I should never
Bleep again-”
"Anu ‘.1 you don't, you may never
wake again,” I pointed out.
He laughed lightly.
“What a dismal prophet you are.
Draw up a chair and watch me.”
He pulled back his shirt sleeves and
placed his electric torch on the floor
beside the cabinet. Then he paused
with folded arms to contemplate this
masterpiece of M. Boule.
"It is a beauty," he said at last, and
then drew out the little drawers one
after another, looked them over and
placed them carefully on a chair.
“Now,” he add_d, “let us see if there
is any space that isn’t accounted for.”
He took from his pocket a folding
rule of ivory, opened it, and began
a series of measurements so search
ing and intricate that half an hour
passed without a word being spoken.
Then he pulled up another chair and
sat down beside me.
“I seem to be pretty much up
against it,” he said, “no doubt just as
the designer of the cabinet would wish
me to be. The whole bottom of the
desk is inclosed and those three little
drawers take up only a small part
of the space. Then the back of the
cabinet seems to be double—at least
there’s a space of three inches I can’t
account for. So there’s room for a
dozen secret drawers, if the Monte
span required so many. And now to
find the combination."
He adjusted the steel gauntlet care
fully to his right hand and sat down
on the floor before the cabinet.
‘Til begin at the bottom,” he said.
"It there is any spot I miss, tell me
nt it ”
He ran his fingers up and down
the graceful legs, carefully feeling
every Inequality of the elaborate
bronze ornamentation. Particularly
did his fingers linger on every boss
and point, striving to push It In or
down; but they were all Immovable.
Then he examined the bottom of the
table minutely, using his torch to il
lumine every crevice, but again with
out result
Another half hour passed so, and
when at last he came out from under
the table his face was dripping with
sweat.
“It's trying work,” he said, sitting
down again and mopping his face. "But
isn’t it a beauty, Lester? The more I
look at it, the more wonderful it
seems.”
"I told Philip Vantine I wasn't up
to it and I’m not,” I said.
"Nor I, but I can appreciate it to the
extent of my capacity. It's the Louis XIV
ideal of beauty—splendor carried to the
ninth degree. Look at the arabesques
along the front—can you imagine any
thing more graceful? And the engrav
ing—nothing cut and dried about that.
It was done by a burin in the hands of
a master—perhaps by Boule himself. I
don’t wonder Vantine was rather mad
about it. But we haven’t found that
drawer yet,” and he drew his chair
close to the cabinet.
"I'd point out one thing to you, God
frey," I said, “if you go poking about
with the fingers of both hands, as you
have been doing, you are just as apt to
get struck on the left hand as on the
right.”
“That’s true," he agreed. “Stop me
if I forget."
There were three little drawers in the
front of the table, and these Godfrey
had removed. He inserted his hand
into the space from which he had ta
ken them, and examined it carefully.
Then, Inch by inch, he ran his fingers
over the bosses and arabesques with
which the sides and top of the table
were incrusted. It seemed to me that,
if the secret drawer were anywhere, it
must be somewhere In this part of the
cabinet, and I watched him with
breathless Interest. Once I thought he
had found the drawer, for a piece of
inlay at the side of the table seemed to
give a little under the pressure of his
fingers; but no hidden spring was
touched; no drawer sprang open; no
poisoned fangs descended.
"Well,” said Godfrey, sitting back In
his chair at last, and wiping his face
again, "there's so much done. If there
is any secret drawer in the lower part
of the cabinet, it is mighty cleverly
concealed. Now we’ll try the upper
part.”
The upper part of the cabinet con
sisted of a series of drawers, rising
one above the other, and terminated
by a triangular pediment, its tympan
um ornamented with some beautiful
little bronzes. The drawers themselves
were concealed by two doors, opening
In the center, and covered with a most
9
Intricate design of arabesqued Incrus
tations.
"If there Is a Becret drawer here,"
said Godfrey, "it Is somewhere In the
back, where there seems to be a hollow
space. But to discover the combina
tion ...”
He ran his fingers over the inlay,
and then, struck by a sudden thought,
tested each of the little figures along
the tympanum, but they were all set
solidly in place.
"There’s one thing sure," he said,
"the combination, whatever it is, is of
such a nature that it could not be dis
covered accidentally—by a person lean
ing on the cabinet, for instance. It
isn’t a question of merely touching a
spring; it is probably a question of re
leasing a series of levers, which must
be worked in a certain order, or the
drawer won’t open. I’m afraid we are
up against it.”
"I can't pretend I'm sorry," I said
with a sigh of relief. “As far as I am
concerned, I’m perfectly willing that
the drawer should go undiscovered.”
“Well, I am not,” retorted Godfrey,
curtly, and he sat regarding the cab
inet with puckered brows. Then he
rose and began tapping at the back.
I don’t know what it was—for I was
conscious of no nolso—but some mys
terious attraction drew my eyes to the
window at the farther side of the room.
Near the top of the wooden shutter,
Which Parks and I had put in place,
was a small semi-circular opening, to
allow the passage of a little light, per
haps, and peering through this opening
were two eyes—two burning eyes . . .
They were fixed upon Godfrey with
such feverish intentness that they did
not see my glance, and I lowered my
head instantly.
“Godfrey,” I said, in a shaking voice,
"don’t look up; don’t move your head;
but there is some one peering through
the hole in the shutter opposite us."
Godfrey did not answer for Quite a
minute, but kept calmly on with his
examination of the cabinet
“Did he see you look at him?” he
asked, at last.
"No, he was looking at you, with his
eyes almost starting out of his head. I
never saw such eyes I”
“Did you see anything of his face?”
"No, the hole is too small. I fancy
I saw the fingers of one hand, which
he had thrust through to steady him
self.”
"How high is the hole?”
"Near the top of the window.”
Godfrey came back to his chair a
moment later, sat down in it, and
passed his handkerchief slowly over his
face- Then he leaned forward, appar
ently to examine the legs of the cab
inet.
“I saw him,” he said. "Or, rather, I
saw his eyes. Rather fierce, aren’t
they?”
invyie tx liters eyes, x buiu, wiui
conviction.
"Well, there is no use going ahead
with this while he Is out there. Even
if we found the drawer, we'd both be
dead an instant later.”
“You mean he’d kill us?”
"Ho would shoot us instantly.
Imagine what a sensation that would
make, Lester. Parks hears two pistol
shots, rushes in and finds us lying here
dead. Grady would have a convulsion
—and we should both be famous for a
few days.”
"I’ll seek fame in some other way,”
I said drily. "What are you going to
do about it?”
“We’ve got to try to capture him;
and if we do—well, we shall have the
fame all right! But it's a good deal like
trying to pick up a scorpion—we're
pretty sure to get hurt. If that fellow
out there is who I think he is, he’s
about the most dangerous man on
earth.”
He went on tapping the surface of
the cabinet. As for me, I would have
given anything for another look at
those gleaming eyes. They seemed to
be burning into me; hot flashes were
shooting ud and down my back.
"Why can't I go out as though I
were going after something," I sug
gested. "Then Park and I could charge
around the corner and get him.”
"You wouldn’t get him, he'd get you.
You wouldn't have a chance on earth.
If there is a window upstairs over
that one, you might drop something
out on him. or borrow Parks’ pistol and
shoot him—”
"That would be pretty cowardly,
wouldn’t it?” I suggested, mildly.
"My dear Lester,” Godfrey protest
ed, “when you attack a poisonous
snake, you don't do it with bare hands,
do you?”
I couldn’t help it—I glanced again at
the window. • • •
“He’s gone!” I cried.
Godfrey was at the window in two
steps.
“Look at that!" he Bald, “and then
tell me he isn't a genius!"
I followed the direction of his point
ing finger and saw that. Just opposite
the opening in the shutter, a little hole
had been cut in the window pane.
“That fellow foresees everything,”
said Godfrey, with enthusiasm. “He
probably cut that hole as soon as it
was dark. He must have guessed we
were going to examine the cabinet to
night—and he wanted not only to see,
but to hear. He heard everything we
said, Lester!”
“Let's go after him!” I cried, and,
without waiting for an answer, I
sprang gcross the ante-room and
snatched open the door which led into
the hall.
Parks and Rogers were sitting on
the couch Just outside and I never saw
two men more thoroughly frightened.
“For God’s sake, Mr. Lester!" gasped
Rogers, and stopped, his hand at his
throat.
“Is it Mr. Godfrey?” cried Parks.
“There’s a man outside. Get your
pistol, Parks?”
“Yes, sir," and ho took it form his
pocket.
I snatched it from him, opened the
front door, leaped the railing, and stole
along the house to the corner.
Then, taking my courage in both
hands, I charged around it.
There was no one in sight; but from
somewhere near at hand came a burst
of mocking laughter.
CHAPTER XII.
GODFREY IS FRIGHTENED.
I was still staring about me, that
mocking laughter in my ears, when
Godfrey joined me.
"He got away, of course,” he said
coolly.
“Yes, and I heard him laugh!” I
cried.
Godfrey looked at me quickly.
“Come. Lester,” he said, soothingly,
"dont let youir nerves run away with
you.”
"It wasn’t my nerves." I protested, a
i
little hotly. "I heard It quite plainly.
He can't bo far away."
"Too far for us to catch him." God
frey retorted, and, tobch In hand, pro
ceeded to examine tho window-sill and
the ground beneath It. “There Is
where he stood,” he added, and the
marks on the sill were evident enough.
“Of course, he had his line of retreat
blocked out." and he flashed his torch
back and forth across the grass, but
the turf was so close that no trace of
footsteps was visible. We wont slowly
back to the house, and God
frey sat down again to a contemplation
of the cabinet.
"It's too much for me," he said, at
last. “The only way I cun find that
drawer, I'm afraid, is with an axe.
But I don't want to smash the thing to
pieces—"
“I should say not! It would be like
smashing the Venus de Milo."
"Hardly so bad as that. But wo
won't smash it yet awhile. I'm going
to look up the subject of secret draw
ers—perhaps I'll stumble upon some
thing that will help me."
"And then, of course," I said, dis
consolately. “it is quite possible that
there isn't any such drawer at all.”
But Godfrey shook his head decidedly.
"I don’t agree with you there, Lestor.
I’ll wager that follow who was looking
in at us could find it in a minute."
"He seemed mighty frightened lest
you should.”
“Ho had reason to be," Godfrey re
joined grimly. "I'll have another try
at It tomorrow. One thing we've got to
take care of, and that is that our friend
of the burning eyes doesn’t got a chance
at it first.”
"Those shutter are pretty strong," I
pointed out. “And Parks is no fool."
"Yes," agreed Godfrey, "the shutters
are pretty strong—they might keep him
out for 10 miutes—scarcely longer than
that. As for Parks, ho wouldn’t last
10 ceconds. You don't Beem to under
stand tho extraordinary character of
this fellow.”
“During your period of exaltation last
night,” I reminded him, "you referred
to him as the greatest criminal of mod
ern times."
"Well," smiled Godfrey, "perhaps that
was a little exaggerated. Suppose wo
say ono of the greatest—great enough,
surely, to walk all around us, if wo
aren’t on guard. I think I would better
drop a word to Simmonds and get him
to send down a couple of men to watch
the house. With them outside, and
Parks on the inside It ought to be
fairly safe."
"I should think so!” I said, "Ono
would Imagine you were getting ready
to repel an army. Who Is this fellow,
anyway, Godfrey? You seem to bo half
afraid of him!"
“I’m wholly afraid of him, If he’s
who I think he Is—but it’s a mere guess
as yet, Lester. Wait a day or two. I’ll
cal! up Simmonds.”
He went to the- 'phone, while I sat
down again and looked at the cabinet
In a kind of stupefaeatlon. What was
the intrigue, of which It seemed to be
the center? Who was this man, that
Godfrey should consider him so formid
able? Wliy should he have chosen
Philip Vantine for a victim?
Godfrey came back while I was still
groping blindly amid this maze of mys
tery.
“It's all right.” he said. “Simmonds is
sending two of his best men to watch
the house." He stood for a moment
gazing down at the cabinet. "I’m com
ing back tomorrow to have another try
at it ” he added. ‘T have left the
gauntlet there on the chair, so if you
feel like having a try yourself, Lester
• • •*»
“Heaven forbid!” I protested. “But
perhaps I would better tell Parks to
let you in. I bone I won’t find you a
corpse here, Godfrey!"
"So do II But I don’t believe you
will. Yes, tell Parks to let me In
whenever I come around. And now
about Rogers.”
"What about him?”
"I rather thought I might want to
grill him tonight. But perhaps I would
better wait till I get a little more to
go on.” He paused for a moment’s
thought. “Yes; I’ll wait;” he said,
finally. “I don't want to run any risk
of failing.”
We went out into the hall together,
and I told Parks to admit Godfrey,
whenever he wished to enter. Rogers
was stili sitting on the cot, looking so
crushed and sorrowful that I could not
help pitying him. I began to think
that. If he were left to himself a day or
two longer he would tell all we wished
to know without any grilling.
I confided this Idea to Godfrey as wa
went down the front steps.
"Perhaps you’re right," he agreed. "I
don’t believe the fellow is really crook
ed. Something has happened to him—.
something in connection with that wo
man—and he has never got over it.
Well, we shall have to find out what
it was. Hello, here are Simmond’s
men,” he added, as two policemen stop
ped before the house.
“Is this Mr. Godfrey?" one of them
asked.
"Yes.” said Godfrey.
"Mr. Simmonds told us to report to
you, tir, if you were here.”
"What we want you to do," said God
frey, "is to watch tho house—watch it
from all sides—patrol clear around it
and see that no one approaches it.”
“Very well, sir,” and the men touched
their helmets, and one of them went
around to the back of the house, while
the other remained In front.

Altairs at Homs.
From the Chicago Tribune.
Local political conditions this year have
not encouraged observing men to believe
that good results might be obtained easily.
It will be regarded as an event of fortu
nate chance If local government be not
given a setback, so far as efficiency and
probity are Involved.
If there has been apathy on the part of
the citizens, It Is easily explained. The
war In Europe not only has been en
grossing, but It has In a way belittled our
own governmental problems. The peace
and security enjoved by the American
citizen may seem to him to give warrant
to the methods of his government, no mat
ter what form that government may take.
Thus, realizing his security from such
disaster as Europe presents, and en
grossed In giving attention to the catas
torphe abroad, he may permit, under the
cover of his Inattention, a relatively in
considerable but consequential disaster to
qvertako him here.
His local government Is seriously In
volved. The care which may or may not
be given dependents of the community is
at stake. The elections which hereafter
for four years will be held are at stake.
The administration of municipalities such
as the sanitary district If at stake. The
administration of tax assessing laws is at
stake.
The citizen’s representation In congress
and In the state legislature is in the Issue.
AH these things may affect him so Im
perceptibly that if he be In fortunate cir
cumstances he may not observe them
knowingly, but they affect him, and con
tinued deterioration and continued Indif
ference to It mean something that might
be called, without any sensationalism,
ruin.
We manage to survive our political mis
takes. That gives us confidence that we
shall always be able to survive them. The
mistake could be made more disastrous.
A city, state, cr nation can not Indefinitely
survive Its political mistakes. They be
gin to count against the morals and the
stability, against the permanency of that
city, state or nation.
Two daughters of General Tomi
ovsky, a commander In the Russian
army, have gained permission to wear
the uniform of a regular soldier, and

Poisonous Disinfectant Made Safe.
With the Increased use of bichloride
of mercury as a disinfectant there
have resulted numerous cases of sui
cidal and accidental poisoning, the lat
tor being due to mistaking this power
| ful corrosive poison for medicine in
j tablet form. For preventing this, and
particularly for preventing accidental
I poisoning, various ways of preparing
i the poison so that it will readily be
distinguished from any other sub
stance has been proposed, but the so
lution of the whole problem now seems
to have been found in the plan of mix
ing a powerful emetic with the bichlor
ide of mercury. This is a tartar emet
ic so compounded that it will exert
its full emetic action before the corro
sive sublimate can begin its action,
causing violent nausea until the stom
ach is entirely emptied. It is stated
that the disinfecting power of the bi
chloride of mercury is in no way im
paired by mixing the emetic with it.
Isn't it funny that the things wo
like to do most are tho things we are
told we shouldn't go?

First Military Censor.
Hannibal was in a bad temper, re
lates the Cleveland Plain-Dealer.
“Who is that little fellow over there
with the Btylus and tablet?” he asked
his first aid.
“That’s a war correspondent from
Carthage, general.”
“What’s he doing?”
"He’s counting the elephants and
the Balearic slingers.”
“What’s he doing that for?”
“He’s doing' it because he’s a war
correspondent.”
The great Carthagenian emitted a
deep growl.
"Hamil,” he said, "I’m going to hold
you strictly responsible for this man’s
copy. If he writes at all let him be
little everything. Let him say I have
ten elephants where I have 50. Let
him write that I have three legions
where I have ten. Let him call me
a wooden-headed blunderer. Then
let him lose his copy where our Ro
man friends will find it. It’s up to
you, Hamil. If the fellow gets balky
tie him to our biggest fighting ele
phant’s trunk, when the next batch of
Roman senators comes up against us,
and let him get all the war he wants
at short range, Hamil.”
And the first military censorship
was established.
