New Tork, May 3 —A shuffling figure of the underworld with a drag ging leg and a withered arm appears af police headquarters twice a week He Is expiating a past in such a way that even calloused criminal hunters uro heartened. A year ago he was one of the brood of Broadway Jewelers whose little shops are ''fences"—a hole In the wall for thieves’ loot, lie participated In n $350,000 Jewel robbery. In that he received the plunder and bid It In his safe. The keenest sleuths were on the rhas* but they found only Mind al •ys. The Jeweler was going home v night. There was a thump at the imso of the brain and he sagged to (he sidewalk, th# victim of a paralytlo stroke. While he was In the hospital an assistant opened the safe and stole the Jewels. When the jeweler re covered sufficiently to discover his loss he made underground overtures to headquarters to return the jewels In exchange for what he called ‘peace of mind.** fie was given a chance. Bit by bit he has made good. More than $200,000 worth of the various Jew els have been returned. He exacted a promise that he should not be shadowed and the polio* have kept their word. They refuse to tell where ho lives. They only say "uptown." The underworld received word from the Jeweler that th# doctor had given him a short time to live—nine months at most. "I want to go out square,” ho wrote, "and I am going to clean up my last Job. If those I have 'stood by’ don't stand by me I won't squeal but somebody is going out with me.” Tho denizens knew him as a man of this word—one who would turn klllpr If necessary. The Jewelry had been broken up and distributed to various other "fences" but piece by place It is being recovered and taken to "headquarters. Nothing takes th# average man back to the Stone Bruise Ago so much as an old-fashioned cookie, brhere Is a little cookie shop on ^^•nty-nlnth street that doe* a thriving business. Children of this generation do not patronize It. But Its customers are mostly men past middle age who go there to buy a paper poke of cookies and perhaps go to their home* to munch them and drtam of the day* when th# world we# young. The speakeasy has found lodge njfTit In many big skyaeraper* down town. On the glass door may b* a algn In gold letter* reading: "John .Idpes, Cement Contractor.” Inalda a rlerk or *o earrles on what look* a* tlinugh It might he a legitimate httal n«S«*, hut there Is another door always locked Which may only he entered by signal rap*. "Rain” started a flood of play* de r icting primitive, unvarnished life In tit* 'irole*. Only on* other—"Whit* Cargo"—has caught on. A* a result a theatrical costumer ha* a window tilted with South Sea Island costumes with a sign reading: "Tropical cog fume* at less than one third the orlg ln«l cost.” ft ha* also been discov ered that there Is only on- Hawaiian orchestra in town. Si* years ago one musical agency had di playing at various resorts. It la only K:. minutes by motor from Ken ty second street to a village that otter* tho peace of an Isolated village that might he thousand* of mile* little* away. There la the humble wooden church and the little country Isitirc where lounger* gather and chaff *tg‘,flung from group to group. There are old men rocking out their last days on Ivy clad porch#*. Silver haired women quietly knitting at front room window'*. Chicken* pc k n|s„it In the road. It Is the one spot pikir New York not despoiled of small tdjwn atmosphere by the automobile.

Tim breeze WAS fresh mid they stood nwny at once, Hy AtinrlAA there won no morn sign of them then Iheie hud been at sunset, them wits no more due to Ihn way they had taken then to the way they had come. It waa ns if they had dropped from Ihn nklea In their awl ft, silent passage, but for the absence of Tlosnmund and Lionel Tressllian, the thing must have been accounted no more than a dream of those few who had witnessed It. Aboard the caraek, Hakh el-Rnhr bestowed Rosamund In the cabin over the quarter, taking the precaution to lock the door that led to the stern gallery. Lionel he ordered 1o he dropped Into a dark hole under the hatchway, there to lie and meditate upon the retrlhutlon thnt had over taken him until such time as his brother should have determined upon his fate—for tills was n matter upon which the renegade was still unde cided. Himself he lay under the stare that night and thought of many things. One of these things, which plays some part In tha story, though it Is prob able that it played but a slight one In his tho.ughts, was begotten of the words Othmant had used. Whnt, in deed, would be Asad's welcome of him on his rfiturn If he snJled Into Algiers with nothing more to show for that long voyage and the imperil ing of the lives of two hundred True helievers than Just two captives whom he Intended, moreover, to re tain for himself? What capitgl would not he made out of that circum stances by his enemies In Algiers and by Asad’s Sicilian wife who hated him with all tho bitterness of a ha tred that had Its roots In the fertile soil of jealousy? Tills may have spurred him In the cool dawn to a very daring and des perate enterprise which Destiny sent his way In the shape of a tall-masted Dutchman homeward bound. He gave chase, for all that he was full con sclous that the battle he invited was one of which his corsairs had no ex perience, and one upon which they must have hesitated to venture with another leader than himself. Rut the star of Rakh-el-Bahr was a star that never led to aught but victory, and their belief In him, the very Javelin of Allah, overcame any doubts that may have been begotten of finding themselves upon an unfamlar craft and on a rolling, unfamiliar aea. This fight Is given In great detail hy my Lord Henry from the particu lars afforded him by Janper Leigh. But It differs In no great particular from other seafights, and It Is noqe of my purpose to surfeit you with such recitals. Knough to say that it was stern and fierce, entailing great loss to both combatants; that cannon played little part In it, for knowing the quality of his men Rakh el Bahr made haste to run In end grapple. He prevailed of course as he must ever prevail hy the very force of his personaJity and the might of his ex ample. He was the first to leap aboard the Dutchman, clad In mall and whirling his great scimitar, and his men poured after him shouting his name and that of Allah in a breath. Ruch was ever his fury In an en gagement thnt It infected nnd In spired his followers. It did so now. and the shrewd Dutchmen came to perceive that this heathen horde was as a body to which he supplied the brain and soul. They attacked him fiercely in groups. Intent at all costs upon cutting him down, convinc'd almost by Instinct thnt were he felled Ihe victory would easily be theirs. And In the end they succeeded.
