She Is following your Instructions!"
In his excitement he betrayed him
self. He had read the note.
There came a sound up the corridor,
the opening of a door, the echo of
voices, and Jeekum leaped back. Na
thaniel's loot held the cell door from
closing
“Where is Marion?” he cried softly,
his heart standing still with dread.
"Great God—what about Marion?"
For an instant the sheriff’s ghastly
lace was pressed against the opening.
Marion has not beer seen since
morning. The king's officers are
searching for her."
The door slammed, the chains
clanked loudly, and above the sound
of Jeekum’s departure Neil’s voice
rose in a muffled cry of joy.
"They are gone! They are leaving
the island ’’’
Nathaniel stood like one turned
into stone. His heart grew cold with
in him. When he spoke his words
were passionless echoes of what had
been.
"You are sure that Marion would
kill herself as soon as she became the
wife of Strang?” he asked.
"Yes—before his vile hands touched
more thaif" the dress she wore!"
shouted Neil.
"Then Marion is dead," replied Na
thaniel. as coldly as though he were
talking to the walls about him. "For
last i ght Marion was forced into the
harem of the king."
As he revealed the secret whose
mrture he meant to keep imprisoned
in his ow n breast he dropped upon the
1 allet of straw anu buried his face
between his arms, cursing himself
that he had weakened in these last
hours of their comradeship.
He dared not look to see the effect
of hi- words on Neil. His companion
■ittered no sound. Instead there was
a silence that was terrifying.
At the end of it Neil spoke ir. a
voice so strangely calm that Nathaniel

DUG UP HIDDEN TREASURE
California Community Greatly Ex
cited Over Mysterious Actions
of Stranger.
The people of this community are
wondering who was the mysterious
stranger who visited the ancient
adobe but a mile north of here a few
* veilings ago and dug up a box ol
can that had been buried there fiftv
years or more, says an Oakland cor
respondent of the San Francisco
Chronicle It is supposed he carried
away a large quantity of gold bill
lion that belonged to Glanville Swift,
an early day miner who lived in this
hut while operating in the mines ir
the hills east of Chico, leaving in tfc
early ’60s with nearly $750,000 ir ,
gold, which took six weeks to weigh j
and required a pack train and strong
guard to transport out of the country
The stranger was seen loitering
about the adobe but one evening, and !
a Mr. Fawcett, who lives near, tried
to lean: his mission, but failed. The
next morning Fawcett found where !
a box or can had been dug up during
the night. There were several stakes,
showing that measurements had been
made from a chan to locate the place
to dig. Only one hole was made.
When Glanville Swift weighed his
gold he found two or more large por
ter bottles of it missing. It is sup^
posed they were stolen and buried and
that this stranger learned of thel'
whereabouts.

The brother and sister were strang

"Then why bring him?" asked she.

plained. "They tell me that here in
New York engagements are more

.1AK00N IN SHARP CRITICISM
mr.cago University Is Charged With
Proselyting for Students With
Reccrds os Athletes.
Severe criticism of the athletic fie*
artment of he University of Chicago
are made by the Daily Maroon, the un
dergraduate newspaper of the institu
ion. :n a recent issue.
In addition to charging the univer
sity with proselyting for students with
-ecc-ds in athieiics. the Maroon at
tacks im.rcollegiate athletics in geo
eral.
Some of the charges are:
Candidates for the football team are
kept at work so long that they cannot
make even a pretense of studying.
Students enter the university largely
because of the opportunity of exercis
ing their athletic prowess.
That 99 per cent, of the students
like no part in athletic,* except to
shriek from the bleachers.
That those 99 per tent. have an in
sane desire to win and do not honor
any team which fails to come horn*
with the spoils.
That the* remaining one per cent
which rakes part in athletics is physi
cally injured by the exercise involved.
These things explain, the article
maintains, why 'college alumni arc
not taking the active part in the af
fairs of the country they should" and
account for "the commercial and po
litical dishonesty tha" famishes work
for grand juries and the senate coni
mittees and the iaiiers
"Xct even the most enthusiastic sup
porter t f intercollegiate athletics can
assert that it is a genuinely student
activity. - the editorial says. “It con
sists in ensnaring into college by spec
tacular methods students who have a!
ready established athletic rt cords in
prepara-ory schools. Little attempt is
made to conceal th“ fact that these
students enter the university largely
because of the opportunity of exercis
ing their athletic prowess.
“One per cert, of the student body
specializes in athletics, while the other
SS* per cent, sits on the bleachers and
gives vent to primitive shrieks.
“Athletics is today too much of a
business. Its only object is victory.
'Can anybody maintain that athletes
can even make a pretense of studying
when they are kept out on the athletic
field from three o'clock to seven and
eight o'clock at night* Can a student
arising from a hastily eaten meal at
S: 30 in the evening be expected to put
forth any serious intellectual effort
when he has been battered around on
the football field for four or five
hours ?''

“Cow-Sell Chorus” Barred.
New York boxing clubs have de
cided to suppress a recent innovation
at bouts in this city—namely the
“cow-bell chorus," by which the ad
mirers of various local boxers have
been accustomed to show their ap
preciation of the efforts of their
favorites.
Recently, club officials state, this or
ganized "cheering" with horns, bells
and other instruments of noise pro
duction has become so obstreperous
as to constitute a nuisance.
About 90 per cent, of those present,
the club officials declare, do not ap
preciate the efforts of the noisema
kers. and will be glad to see it done
away with.

WAS TAKING NO CHANCES
Chauffeur Had Had Enough Accidents
With People Wearing False.
Teeth.
Pretty Thais X, who has delighted
the audiences of New York's vaude
ville houses, was called suddenly to
Vermont to visit her sick mother. At
a town a few miles from her parentis
home she hired an automobile and
asked the chauffeur to drive her with
as much speed as possible to her
destination.
The roads were very bad. and the
car. mailing good speed up hill and
down dale, over rocks and ruts,
seemed bound to shake overboard its
occupants.
After a tittle of this jolting the
chauffeur turned to his fare and de
manded:
“I say, ma'am. Do yon wear false
leeth ?"
*'Y\*hat impudence!" exclaimed
Thais X. ,
“Oh. ma'am, it is not from impu
dence.” returned the chauffeur, “that
I asked you the question. It is be
cause the road is bad, the rocks are
hard, and if you wear false teeth, you
would do well to remove them until
we strike the pike. I've had enough
accidents of that description."
A Good Samaritan.
"Once, when I was ill. he gave me a
punch in the stomach.”
“I don't see why you should be
grateful for that."
"It was a milk punch. They
strengthen, you know."
