Good Manners Dying Out?
Hurry and bridge baye killed the
art of polite conversation; hurry has
robbed correspondence of its grace;
hurry is fast transforming the once
sedate city of London into a pande
monium of whirring noises, whirling
wheels and evil fumes. Dignity, grace,
repose are banished from our midst,
and we are as yet only at the be
ginning of this breakneck race through
life. Perhaps some dusty memoirs of
our period will cause the men and
women of he future to say: "Those
people were very punctilious, very
slow, very sedate." That, says
Adolphus Vane Tempest, in Nine
teenth Century, may be the opinion
held in the not very far distant days
when contending areoplanes crash
'.into one another without an apology,
land myriads of motor cars sweep over
'the prostrate bodies of pedestrians
(without inquiring if they are hurt.
iBut there will be less difference be
tween the people of that day and the
jpeople of ours than there is between
us and the powdered, courteous gal
lants and dames who worthily upheld
the traditions of good manners. when
the first gentleman in Europe was
'"the glass of fashion and the mould of
form.'
Most of the tortoise shell of com
merce is obtained from the hawks-bill
turtle, m-hlch is taken chiefly in the
Caribbean sea. Turtles caught in
these waters vary in size from one to
four and one-half feet long, with a
maximum weight of 150 pounds, and
the average weight of shell obtained
Cram each is from six to seven pounds.
The commercial value of tortoise shell
depends upon the thickness and size
of the plates rather than upon the
brilliancy of the colors. The price of
shell in this market fluctuates from
three to six dollars in gold per pound.
As the best prices are obtained in
England, the largest amount of the
shell shipped from these parts goes to
that country. The San Bias Indians,
aowever. trade a large amount of
shell to coasting schooners, which is
partly carried to the States and partly
to Colon.

."MY RIGHT EVE OFFEND ME.".
Next day Langdon's stocks wavered,
going np a little, going down a little,
closing at practically the same Bgares
at which they had opened. Them I
sprang my sensation that Langdoa
and his particular clique, though they
controlled the Textile Trust, did not
own so much as one-fiftieth of its vot
ing stock. True "captains of indus
try" that they were, they made their
profits not oat of dividends, bat ont of
side schemes that absorbed about
two-thirds of the earnings of the
Trust, and out of gambling la its
bonds and stocks. I said ia conclu
sion: "The largest owner of the stock is
Walter G. Edmunds, of Chicago an
honest man Send your voting proxies
to him, and he can takeTafce Textile
company away from those bow plun
dering it" 1
As the annual election of the Trust
was only six weeks away, Langdon
and his clique were in a panic They
rushed into the-market and bought
frantically, the public bidding against
them. Langdon himself went to Chi
cago to reason with Edmunds that
is, to try to find out at what figure
he could be bought And so on, day
after day, I faithfully reporting to
the public the main occurrences be
hind the scenes. The Langdon at
tempt to regain control by purchases
of6tock failed. He and his allies
made what must have been to them
appalling sacrifices; but even at the
high prices they offered, comparative
ly little of the stock appeared.
"I've caught them," said I to Joe
the first time, aad the last, during
that campaign that I indulged in a
boast
"If Edmunds sticks to you," re
plied cautious Joe.
But Edmunds did not I do not
know at what price he sold him
self. Probably it was pitifully small;
cupidity usually snatches the instant
bait tickles its nose. Bnt I do know
that my faith in human nature got its
severest shock.
Fortunately, Edmunds had held out
or, rather, Langdon had delayed ap
proaching him, long enough for me to
gain my main point The uproar over
the Textile Trust had become so great
that the national department of com
merce dared not refuse an investiga
tion; and I straightway began to
spread out in my daily letters the
facts of the trust's enormous earnings
and of the shameful sources cf those
earnings.
In the midst of the adulation, of
the blares upon the trumpets of fame
that saluted my waking and were
wafted to me as I fell asleep at night
in the midst of all the turmoil, I was
often in a great and brooding silence,
longing for her, now with the im
perious energy of passion, and now
with the sad ache of love. What was
she doing? What was she thinking?
Now that Langdon had again played
her false for the old price, with what
eyes was she looking into the future?
Alva, settled in a West Side apart
ment not far from the ancestral white
elephant telephoned, asking me to
come. I went, because she could and
would give me news of Anita. But as
I entered her little drawing-room. I
said: "It was curiosity that brought
me. I wished to see how you were in
stalled." "Isn't it nice and small?' cried she.
"Billy and I haven't the slightest diffi
culty in finding each other as people
so often have In the big houses." And
it was Billy this and Billy that and
what Billy said and thought and felt
and before they were .married, she had
called him William, and had declared
"Billy" to be the most offensive com
bination of letters that ever fell from
human lips.
"I needn't ask if you are happy,"
said I presently, with a dismal failure
at looking cheerful. "I can't stay but
a moment," I added, and if I had
obeyed my feelings, I'd have risen up
and taken myself and my pain away
from surroundings as hateful to me
as a summer sunrise in a death-chamber.
"Oh!" she exclaimed, in some con
fusion. "Then excuse me." And she
hastened from the room.
I thought she had gone to order, or
perhaps to bring, the tea. The long
minutes dragged away until tea had
passed. Hearing a rustling in the hall,
I rose, intending to take leave the In
stant she appeared. The rustling
stopped just outside. I waited a few
seconds, cried: "Well, Im off. Next
time I want to be alone, 111 know
where to come," and advanced to the
door. It was not Alva hesitating
there; it was Anita.
"I beg your pardon," said I, coldly.
If there had been room to pass I
should have gone What devil pos
sessed me? Certainly in all our rela
tions I had found her direct and frank,
if anything, too frank. Doubtless It
wss the influence of my associations
down town, where for so many months
I had been dealing with the "short
card" crowd of high finance, who
would hardly play the game straight
even- when that was the easy way to
win. My long, steady stretch in that
stealthy aad sinaous company had put
me in the state of mind ia which it is
impossible to credit any human being
with a motive that is decent or aa ac
tion that Is not a dead-fall. Thus the
obvious transformation ia her made
no impression on me. Her hanghtl
aess, her coldness, were gone, aad
with.thent-had gone all that had been
least like her natural self, most like
the repellent conventions! pattera to
which her mother aad her associates
had melded her. Bnt I was saying to
myself: "A trap!
hack to his wife.
I leved her
UEeazzo&za&y?
"Never," thought I, "has she shown
so poor an opinion of me as bow."
"My uncle told me day before yes
terday that it was not he but you,"
she said, lifting her eyes to mine. It
is inconceivable to me now that I
could have misread their honest story;
yet I did. ,
"I had no idea your uncle's notion
of honor was also -eccentric," said I,
with a satirical smile that made the
blood rush to her face.
rThat is unjust to him," she re
plied, earnestly.
"He says he made you no promise of
secrecy. And he confessed to me only
because he wished to convince me
that he had good reason for his high
opinion of you."
"Really!" said I, ironically. "And
bo doubt he found you open wide to
conviction now." This a subtlety to
let her know that I undertsood why
she was seeking me.
"No," she answered, lowering her
eyes. "I knew better than he."
For an instant this, spoken in n
voice I had long given np hope of ever
hearing from her, staggered my cyn
ical conviction. But "Possibly she
thinks she is sincere," reasoned my
head with my heart; ."even the sincer
est women, brought up as was. she, al
ways have the calculator underneath;
they deny it they don't know It often,
but there t Is; with them, calculation
Is as involuntary and automatic as
their pulse." So, I said to her, mock
ingly: "Doubtless your opinion of me
'TOU DO NOT BELIEVE
has been improving steadily ever since
you heard that Mrs. Langdon had re
covered her husband."
She winced, as if I bad struck her.
"Oh!" she murmured. If she had been
the "ordinary woman, who in every
crisis with man instinctively resorts
to weakness' strongest weakness,
tears, I might have a different story to
tell. But she fought back the tears
in which her eyes were swimming and
gathered herself together. "That is
brutal," she said, with not a touch of
haughtiness, but not humbly, either.
"But I deserve it."
"There was a time," I went on,
swept in a swift current of cold rage,
"there was a time when I would have
taken you on almost any terms. A
man never makes a complete fool of
himself about a woman but once in
his life, they say. I have done my
stretch and it is over."
She sighed wearily. "Langdon came
to see me soon after I left your house,
and went to my uncle," she said. "I
will tell you what happened."
"I do not wish to hear," replied I,
adding pointedly, "I have been waiting
ever since you left for news of your
plans."
She grew white, and my heart smote
me. She came into the room and
seated herself. "Won't you stop,
please, for a moment longer?" she
said. "I hope that at, least, we can
part without bitterness. I understand
now that everything is over between
us. A woman's vanity makes her be
lief that a man cares for her die hard.
I am convinced now I assure you, I
am. I shall trouble you' bo more
about the past. But I have the right
to ask you to hear me whenJjsay that
Langdon came, and thatXmyself sent
him away; sent him back to his wife."
"Touching self-sacrifice, - said I,
ironically.
"No," she replied. "I cannot claim
any credit. I sent him away only be
cause yon and Alva had taught me how
to judge him better. I do not despise
him as do you; I know too well what
has made aim what he is. Bat I had
to send him away."
My comment was aa incredulous
look and shrug. "I must be going." I
said.
"You do not believe me?" she asked.
"Ia my place, would yon believer

K I am sorry," she said, slowly, hesi
tatingly, "that yonr faith in me died
just when I might; perhaps, have justi
fied it Oars has been a pitiful series
of misunderstandings'
"A trap! A trap!" I was warning
myself. "You've been a fool long
enough, Blacklock." And aloud I said:
"Wen. Anita, the series is ended bow.
There's no longer any occastaa for our
lyiag or posiag to each other." Any ar
rangements yonr uncle's lawyers sug
gest will be made."
I was bowing, to leave without
shaking hands with her. But she
would not have it so. "Please!" she
said, stretching ont her long, slender
arm aad. offering me her-hand-.
What a devil possessed me that day!
With every atom of me longing for her.
I yet was able to take, her hand and
say. with a smile, that was, 1 doubt
not as mocking as my tone: "By all
meaas let us be friends. And I trust
you will not think me discourteous if I
say that I shall feel safer In our
friendship when we are both on
neutral ground."
As I was turning away, her look, my
own heart, made me turn again. I
caught her by the shoulders. I gazed
into her eyes. "If I could only trust
you, could only believe you!'- I cried.
"You cared for me when I wasn't
worth It" she said. "Now that I am
more like what you once Imagined me,
you do not care."
Up between us rose Langdon's face
cynical, mocking, contemptuous.
"Your heart is his! You told me so!
Don't lie to me!" I exclaimed. And
before she could reply, I was gone.
Out from under the spell of her
presence, back. among the tricksters
and asssKBins, the traps and ambushes
of Wall street I believed again; be
lieved firmly the promptings of the
devil that possessed ma "She would
have given you a brief fool's paradise,"
said that devil. "Then what a hideous
awakening!" And I cursed the day
when New York's insidious snobbish
ness had tempted my vanity into start
ing me on that degrading chase after
"respectability."
"If she does not move to free her
self soon," said I to myself. "I will

CHAPTER XXXIII.
"WILD WEEK."
"The Seven" made their fatal move
on UpdegraflTs advice, I suspect But
they would not have adopted his sug
gestion had it not been so exactly
congenial to their own temper of ar
rogance and tyranny and contempt for
the people who meekly, year after
rtbir, presented themselves for the the
shearing with fatuous bleats of en
thusiasm. "The Seven," of course, controlled
directly, or indirectly, all but a few of
the newspapers with which I had ad
vertising contracts. They also con
trolled the main sources through
which the press was supplied with
news and often' and i well they had
used this control, and . surprisingly
cautious had they been not so to
abuse it that the editors and the pub
lic would become suspicious. When
my war was at its height, when I was
beginning to congratulate myself that
the huge magazines of "The Seven"
were empty almost to the point at
The Ears of
Said te Differ Widely from These of
Normal Persons.
Before the annual congress of German
anthropologists at Gorlitz. Prof. Blau, a
well known authority on diseases of
the ear. read an interesting paper on
the formation of the ears of criminals
sad lunatics. Prof. Blau has token
accurate xnessurements of l.l ears.
Of these 265 are the ears of lunatics
and 343 those of male criminals. The
examination, moreover, was confined
to men of one race and one country.
The professor comes to the conclu
sion that In the vast majority of cases
the various parts of the auricle, er
external ear. are larger ia the ease of
crimiaals and lunatics than In the
case of normal persons. This is espe
cially noticeable in the helix, or in
curved outer border of the ear. aad
also la the lobe. According to Prof.
Blau, the larger the helix Is the lower
the state of mental development The
hearing faculty, oa the other hand, is
keener, aad Prof. Blan fllastratos his
theory by reference to the auricle of
apes, who are all la possession of this

no longer carry ont their contracts to

their reason, not the real one, f
"The Sevea," tat fear that I
iavolve them ia miaous libel suits. I
who had legal proof for every state
meat I made; I who was always care
ful to understate!. Next, one press
associatkm after another censed to
send out my letter as news, thoaj
they had been doing so regularly for
months. The public had grown tired
of the "sensation." they said.
I countered with a telegram to one
or more newspapers ia every city aad
huge town in the United States:
" The Seven are trying to cut the
wires between the truth aad the pub
lic. If you wish my dally letter, tele
graph me direct and I will send it at
my expense."
The response should have warned
"The Seven." But It did not. Undei
their orders the telegraph companies
refused to transmit the letter. I got
an injunction. It was obeyed in typi
cal, corrupt corporation fashion they
sent my matter, but so garbled that It
was unintelligible. I appealed to the
courts. In vain.
To me, It was clear as sun in cloud 1
less noonday sky that there could bej
but one result of this insolent and
despotic denial of my rights and the
rights of the people, this public con
fesslon of the truth of my charges.
I turned everything salable or mort
gageable into cash, locked the cash up
in my private1 vaults, and waited for
the cataclysm. -
Thursday Friday Saturday. Ap
parently all. .was- tranquil; apparently
the people accepted the Wall street
theory that I was aa "exploded sensa
tion." "The Seven" began to preen
themselves; the strain upon them to
maintain prices, if no less than for
three months past, was not notably
greater; the crisis would pass. I and
my exposures would be forgotten, the
routine of reaping the harvests aad
leaving only the .gleanings for the
sowers would soon be placidly re
sumed. Sunday. Roebuck, taken ill as he
was passing the basket in the church
of which he was the shining light died
at midnight a beautiful, peaceful
death, they say. with his daughter
reading the Bible aloud, and his lips
moving in prayer. Some hold that,
had he lived, the tranquillity would
have continued; but this Is the view of
those who cannot realize that the tide
of affairs is no more controlled by the
"great men" than is the river led down
to the sea by its surface flotsam, by
which we measure the speed and di
rection of its current Under that ter
rific tension, which to the shallow
seemed a calm, something had to
give way. If the dam had not yielded
where Roebuck stood guard, it must
have yielded somewhere else, or might
have gone all in one grand crash.
Monday. You know the story of the
artist and his Statue of Grief how he
molded the features a hundred times,
always failing, always getting an anti
climax, until at last in despair he gave
up uus jiuyiflsatuic suu uuwuvu tu
statue with a veil over the face. I
have tried again and again to assem
ble words that would give some not
loo inadequate impression of that tre
mendous week in which, with a succes
sion of explosions, each like the crack
of doom, the financial structure that
housed 80.000.0W of people burst, col
lapsed, was engulfed. I cannot. 1
must leaye it to your memory or your
imagination!
For years the financial leaders,
crazed by the. excess of power which
the people had in ignorance and over
confidence aad slovenly good-nature
permitted them to acquire, had been
tearing out the honest foundations on
which alone so vast a structure can
hope to rest solid and secure. They
had been substituting rotten beams
painted to look like stone and iron.
The crash had to come! tbe sooner,
the better when a thing is wrong,
each day's delay compounds the cost
of righting it So, with all the horrors
of "Wild Week" in mind,-all its phys
ical and mental suffering, all its ruin
and rioting and bloodshel, I still can
insist that I am justly proud of my
share In bringing it about. The blame
and the shame are wholly upon those
who made "Wild Week" necessary and
inevitable.
In catastrophes, the cry is "Each for
himself!" But in a cataclysm, the
obvious wise selfishness is generosity,
and the cry is: "Stand together, for,
singly, we perish." This was a cata
clysm. No one could save himself,
except the few who. taking my often
urged advice and following my exam
ple, had entered the ark of ready
money. Farmer and artisan and pro
fessional man and laborer owed, mer
chant; merchant owed banker; banker
owed depositor. No one could pay be
cause no one could get what was due
him or could realize upon his property.
The endless chain of credit that binds
together the whole of modern society
had snapped in a thousand places. It
must be repaired, instantly and se
curely. But how and by whom?
