During the years in which our pure

ideal food.
It Is so cheap that any one can af
ford It and so nourishing that every

experiments at Yale and other points
where food values were tested is that
Quaker Oats has been adopted by
many persons as their food on which
they rely for adding vigor and endur

tho ew-ols under tho brass bowl. He
struck Anisty's trail in a IiIk ofllce build
liu;. CHAPTER XV. Continued.
"Ah, cut that, can't yen?" Hlckey
got on all fours, found his cigar, stuck
It In his mouth,' nnd fell Into place at
Maltlaud's side.
"Hlckey, I menu. Hut how"
"If yeh're Maltland, 'ml Anisty's at
tho St. Luke bulldln', tell that fool up
thoro to drive!"
Maltland had no need to lift the
trap; tho cabby had already dono
that.
"All right," tho young man called.
"It's Detective Hlckey. Drive on!"
Tho lash leaped out over tho roof
cr-rnck! and tho horso, presumably
convinced that no speed other than a
dead-run would over ngaln bo de
manded of It, tore frantically down the
avenuo, tho hansom rocking like a top-sall-schoonor
la a heavy g.lo.
Maltland and the detective were bat
torcd against tho side and back of the
vehicle and slammed against ono an
other with painful regularity. Under
such clrcumstnncos speech was difll
cult; yet they managed to exchange a
few sentences.
"Yoh gottuh gun?"
"Anisty's two good cartridges."
"Jus' as well I'm along, I guess."
And again: "How'd yoh s'poso An
lsty got this cab?"
"I don't know must 'vo been in tho

seems to haw walked out right on
your heels."
"Hell!" And a moment later:
"What's this about a woman in the
case?"
Maltland took swift thought on her
behalf.
"Too long to go into now," he parried
the query. "You help mo catch this
scoundrel Anlsty and I'll put in a
good word for you with tho deputy
commissioner."
"Ah, ych help me nab him," grunted
the detective, "'ml I won't need no
good word with nobody."
The hansom swung Into Hroadway,
going like a whirlwind; and picked up
an uniformed ofllcer In front of the
Flatlron building, who, shouting and
using his locust stridently, sprinted
after them. A block further down an
other fell Into line; and ho It was who
panted at tho stop an Instant nftcr tho
cab had lurched to a stop before the
entrance to tho St. Luke building.
Hlckey had rolled out befoie the
policeman had a chance to bluster.
"'Lo, Hergen," he gteetcd tho ninn.
"Yeh know me I'm Hlckey, cential
ofllce. Yeh're Jus' In time. Anisty's
in tills bulldln' 'r was ton minutes
ago. Wo want all the help wo c'n get."
Hy way of reply tho olllccr stooped
and drummed a loud alarm on the
sldewnlk with his night-stick.
"Say," ho panted, rising, "you're a
wonder, Hlckey if you get him."
'Th-luih," grunted tho detective
with a sidelong glnnco at Maltland.
"Cm 'long."
Tlio lobby of tho building was quite
deserted as they entered, tho night
watchman Invisible, tho night elevator
on Its wny to the roof as was dlscov
oied by consultation of tho Indicator
dial ahovo the gate. Hlckey punched
tho night call boll Ravagely.
"Mo 'ml him." ho said, Jerking tho
freo thumb at Maltland, " 'II go up nnd
hunt him out. Degln at th' top iloor
an' work down. That's th' way, huh?
'Nil," to tho policeman, "yeh Btay hero
an' hold up anybody 't tries tub lcavo
th' bulldln'. There ain't no other en
trance, I s'poso, what?"
"IJasempnt door nn' ash lift's round
th' corner," responded tho oJIlcor. "Hut
that had ought tub bo locked, night."
"Well, 'f anybody else comes along
yeh put him thero, anywny, for luck.
What 'n hell'B th' mutter with this
elevator?"
Tho detectlvo settled a pudgy index
finger on tho push button nnd elicited
a far, thin, shrill peal from tho an
nunclntor nhove. Hut tho Indicator ar
row remained as motionless ns the car
at tho top of tho shatt. Another sum
mons gained no responso, In likewise,
nnd a third was also disregarded.
Hlckey stepped back, face black as
a storm-cloud, summed up bis opinion
of tlio management of tho building In
ono soul-blistering phrase, produced
his bandana and used It vigorously,
uttered a libel on tho nncostry of tho
night-watchman and the likes of him,
and turned to give profane welcome to
the policeman who had noticed the
cab at Twenty-third shoot and who
now panted In. blown nnd perspiring.
Much to lHs disgust he found himself
assigned to stand kuiimI owr the base
ment exits, and waddled forth again
Into the street.
Meanwhile the Hist ulllcer to arrive
upon the prone was taking his turn at
imitating tho button nnd shaking the
gates; nml with nn more profit of IiIh

"Thankee, sii "
Maltland turned hack, to find llio
situation loiind the elevator shaft in
statu quo. Nothing had happened, save
that Illckey's rage ami vexation had '
increased mightily.
"Hut why don't you go up aitor
him""
"How 'n blazes can I?" exploded llio
detective. "He's got tit' night car. T
I takes the stairs, he comes down by
th' shaft, 'nil hovv'ni 1 tub trust this

ate but humble r custodian of the peace
with u disgusted gostnie.
"I'erhnpH one of the other ears will

"Ah, they'te nil dead ones." Hlckey
disagreed with disdain as the tiling
man moved down the row of gates, try
ing ono nfiei another. "Yoh'to only

He broke oil with a snort as Malt
land, somewhat to his own surptlse,
managing to move tho gate of the
thiul shaft fiom the night elevator,
stepped into the daikoued tar and
groped for the controller, l'rescntl.v
his lingers encoimteiod it, and he
moved it cautiously to one side. A
vicious blue spark leaped hissing fiom
tho cout toilet -box and the cage
bounded up a dozen foot, and was only
restrained fiom its ambition to soar
skywards by an instantaneous release
of the lever.
Hy dlscicct mauipulatioii Mnltland
worked tho enr down lo the stieel
floor ngaln, nnd Hlckey, with a grunt
that might be intcrpiotod as an apol
ogy for his Ineredulltv, Jumped In.
"Let 'or rip!" he cried, exultantly.
"Fan them folks out intuit th' street.
Hergen, 'nil watch ow-ut!"
Maltland wns ptusslng the lever
slowly wide of Its catch, ami the
lighted lobby dioppoil out of sight
while the detective wns still shouting
admonitions to the police below. (Irad
ually gaining momentum the car began
to shoot, smoothly up Inlo the black
ness, safely chains clanking beneath
the iloor. Hlckey fumbled for the
electric light switch but, finding it, Im
mediately shut the glare oil' again and
left tho car lu darkness.
"Safer," he explained, hententlouti.
"Anlsty 'II shoot, 'nil they says he
shoots straight."
Floor after floor lu ghostly strata
slipped silently down befoie their
eyes. Half-way to the top, approxi
mately, Illckey's voice rang shaiply
In the volunteer operator's ear.
"Stop 'or! Hold 'or steady. T'othei's
comlu' down."
Maltland obeyed, managing the enr
with greater ease and less jerkily as
ho began to understand the principle
of the lever. The cage paused In tho
black shatt, and ho looked tipwaid.
Down tho third shnft over, the other
cage was dropping like a plummet, n
block of golden light walled lu by
black filigree-work and bisected verti
cally by the black Hue of the guide
rati. "Stop that there car!"
Hlckey'B stentorian command had
no effect; the block of light continued
to fall with unabated speed.
Tho detective wasted no more
breath. Ah tho other car swept past,
Maltland was shocked by a icport and
flash bcsldo him. Hlckey was using i
his revolver.
Tho detonntlon wns answered by a
cry, a gcream of pain, fiom the lighted
cage. It paused on the Instant, like
a bird stricken a-wlng, somo four
floors below, but at once tesuined Its
downward swoop.
"Down, down! After 'em!" HIckoy
bellowed. "I dropped ono, by Cod!
T'other can't"
"How many in tho car?" Interrupted
Maltland, opening tho lover with a
firm nnd careful hand.
"Only two, snme's us. I hit th' follor
what was runnln' It "
"Stonily!" cautioned Maltland, de
creasing tho speed, as the car ap
proached the lovvor floor.
Tift other had beaten them down;
but its arrival at tho street lovol was
grcoted by a short chorus of mad yells,
a In Iff fusillade of shots perhaps
five lu nil nnd the clang of the gate.
Then, like a ball rebounding, tho cage
swung tipwatds again, hurtling at full
speed.
I'Mdently Anlsty bad been received
In force which he had not bin gained
for.
Maiiland Instinctively i;versed the
lever and sent his own car upward
again, slowly, waiting for the other to
ovorluke II. Pooling down through
tho lion lattlco-wotk he could Indis
tinctly observe the growing cube of I
light, with a daik shape Iving huddled
In ono corner of the Iloor. A second
tlguio, rapidly taking shape as Anlslj's,
stood by (he conttoller, braced against
the side of the car, one band on the
lever, llio other poising u shining
thing, the lloMhcolorod ovnl of his faco
tinned upwunlH In a supposititious at
tempt to discern the location of tho
daik car.
Hlckey, by firing pionuitiirely, lent
him adventitious aid. The criminal re
plied with npiilt, alining ul tho Hash,
his bullet spattering against the hack
wall of (he shaft, lllekey's next bullet
tang with a holl-llko note against the
metal wotk, Anisty's presumably went
wide though Mnltland could have
sworn ho fell the cold kiss of lis
breath upon his cheek. And the lighted
cage looked past and up
.Maiiland needed no admonition to
pursue; his blood was up, his heart
singing wltli the lust of the mnn hunt.
Yet Anlsty wns rapidly leaving them,
his car soaring at nn appalling pace.
Tovyatds the top he evidently made
Houie attempt to slow up, but either
he was Ignorant of the management of
the lover, or else the thing had got
beyond control. The cage rammed
the buffers with a crash that echoed
thtough the sounding hulls like a peal
of thunderclaps; ft was liiKtnutunc
ously plunged Into darkness. Thoro
followed a spllnUrlng nnd tending
sound, nnd Mnltland, heart in mouth,
could make out dimly a dark, falling
shndow in the futthor shaft. Yet etc
It had descended a scoie of feet tho
safety-clutch acted and, with n thlid
tremendous Jar, shaking the building,
the enr halted.
Hlckey and Maltland were then some
live floors below. "Stop 'or at lit," or
dered the detective. Theio was a lilt
of exultancy lu his voice. "We got
him now, all right, all tight. He'll try
to got down hy There!" Overhead
the crash of a gale forced open was
followed by a scurry of footsteps over
the tiling. "Stop 'or nnd we'll head
him off. So now eeoasy!"
Mnltland shut off tho power us the
car leached the nineteenth floor.
Hlckey opened the gate and Jumped
out. "Shut that," he commanded,
sharply, as Maltland followed him,
"In case he gets past us."
Ho paused a moment lu thought,
heavy head on hull-neck dumping for
ward as he s,taieil towaid the rear of
the building, lie was fearless nnd re
sourceful, for all his many deficiencies.
Maiiland found time, quaintly enough,
to regard him with detached curiosity,
a rare animal, Illustrating all that was
host and worst lu his order. I'mlovved
will: exceptional courage, his ad
dress lu oinorgonelcH seemed alto
gether admirable.
"Yeh guard them slulrs." he decided,
suddenly. "I'll run thtough this hull,
'nil see what's doing. Don't hesitate
to shoot If he tries to Jump yeh." And
was gone, clumping briskly down the
corridor lo the rear.

WHY UMDRELLA WAS RETURNED.
Something of a Joke on the
Henry Ward Beecher.
Late
Among the fluniiclul ft lends of the
great preacher was ono old broker In
New York nn nggresslvo Unitarian,
which sect he often said bore "the
trade mark of honesty." One dny ho
met Mr. Heecher hurrying toward
Wall street ferry to avoid the down
pour of a sudden rainstorm.
"Tnko my umbrella," said tho
broker. "I don't need It ; the coming
bus takes mo to my door."
At tho ferry Mr. Heecher met n lady,
a prominent church worker of a sister
church, who, having no umbrella, was
lamenting her inability to reach her
car safely. The urbane preachor
foiccd the uinhielln upon her ns bo
said: "I will be out your way to-morrow
and will call and got It."
Two hours Inter ns Mr. Heecher was
sitting lu the old arm chnir In his
study tho doorbell rang nnd when ho
responded to tho call a hoy hurriedly
presented him with an umbrella, to
gether with an unsealed note, which
rend:
"Dear Mr. Heecher My husband,
Mr. M domnnds that I return tho
umbrella you so kindly lonncd mo at
once, nnd Join him In saying that un
der the clrciinistnnccs tho ploasuro of
an anticipated call Is unregretted.
Upon opening the tinihrelln you will
become moio fully advised of our
united action."
Tho great expounder of truth and
honesty was horrified when upon
opening tho umbrella ho discovered a
pasted slip upon which was written in
a bold round hand: "Stolen by somo
