Stone & Co. CHAPTER XXII I.— Co N'T is L*K JJ. When it was all over, there was a fV-adly silence for half a minute, and then we knew that tlie game was up. "Did you hear that, Stocker?' sail a voice in the room below. "Did you bear that? And if so, what d'ye make oi it?" Stocker's mumbled reply was not ] audible, so we were not enlightened respecting his views. "Quite so," went on the voice. "It didn't sound human, did it? And if I'd beard it at night, I should have said that this house was haunted, that's ■what 1 should have said. But being ip the daytime, it can't be that. What** that you say? Very likely a bird that's trot a nest in the roof? Don't tell pie. Birds don't make noises like that. No, ii isn't a wild animal that Mr. Hall's brought home from his travels either, unless it's an animal by the name of Hubboek. and he's wild enough from all showing. Only I don't call him an tmimal. I call him a murdering, sav age brute. Anyhow, I'm going to see what's under that roof, if I break my r:eck doing «it. There's a ladder lean ing against one of"the fruit trees in th< orchard, and if we stick it up on to}> of tlie portico, we ought to lie able lo teach the roof. Anyhow, we'll havi a try, so come along." Councillor Number Six, the Silent Councillor, Hall and myself must, I suppose, while this was going on.liavo been looking t lie reproaches which we dare not speik, for as soon as the po licemen were out of hearing, Hubboek said snappishly— "lt's quite incompatible that you s-liould all look askance at. me as if I was infected with African leprosy. 1 was in no way cognizant of com mitting mischief." "Quite so, Hubboek," assented Num ber Two; "you couldn't help sneezing, my good man, any more than you can liclp getting tlie African leprosy, which I trust you never will. The only mercy i> you didn't yawn, for yawning, like llie African leprosy, is catching, and sneezing isn't. Hut the question we've now to consider is, 'What's to b" done?' " "I think," said the appeased Hub boek more deferentially, "if the coun cil doesn't think the course too igno n inious, that it would be advisable to •ensconce ourselves under the table. If tiie policemen climb up on the roof and extract a tile to look in, they can't see HP there, and they may conclude that the room is uninhabited." "By extracting a tile, our friend doesn't mean annexing somebody else's hat, explained Number Two good h'imoredly; "all the same, I think he's right. They couldn't see us under tho table, and if they come to the conclu sion that 1 lie room's empty, they may decide to sheer off altogether, or to leave one on guard here, while the other goes 011 to Tarborough to re port progress to the superintendent. The situation is not very serious at tho worst, for it would be the easiest thing HI the world for us to overpower the two bobbies, and either silence them altogether or leave them here gagged •and tied up. while we make off. 1 don't know that the former course v.ouldn'l be the kindest, for the room might never be discovered, and unless they could manage to make themselves beard, they'd stand a good chance 01' <lying by slow starvation. But -if we fan work things to gel clear away without coming lo blows with the bob bies. I'd rathei that it were so. They may think this is only an ordinary Milliard room that I've contrived up befe for a fart, nnfl that they couldn't i find tho entrance to.and that as Hub bock and 1 scorned away, there's notli- j ing to be done but wait until wr come | hack to arrest our friend here. Ap- ! parently it's lie they want, not me, j whom they still appear to look upon j n. l « a reputable member of society. I think our friends outside are propping Ihe ladder against the wall, in which case it will be time to adjourn lo un der the table." Before very long we heard the sound of some one clambering from a ladder to the roof, and cautiously picking his way, apparently on hands and knees, towards the top. Bv-and-by the sound of a moving body ceased, and then we heard the working and wrenching, which told us that the new i iinier was engaged in removing some tiles. Meanwhile we "lay low," en csonced ignominiously, as Hubboek phrased ii. well out of sight under the billiard table. The position was so cramped that I was, if anything, re lieved to know, by aii exclamation of astonishment from the "extractor of tiles" overhead, that the secret < ham- Lei of Heath cottage was a secret DO longer. "Hi! Stockers! are you there?" called an excited voice which 1 recog nized as the sergeant's. "I'm hero, sir," came the reply from below. "I always did think that Hall was a bad lot, for ail his seeming so quiet and respectable," said the sergeant. "It's always the quietest ones as is the worst. What d'ye think he's got up here?" "Fowls?" suggested Stocker lamely. He was not a man of many ideas, and, having lately covered himself with glory by the brilliant arrest and con viction of two small boys who were robbing a henroost —the prevention of poultry pilfering tilled a very impor tant place in his conception of the duties of a constable. "Yes, fowls, 1 expect," he added more confidently; "least way, stolen ones that lie's kept up there to be out of the way. It s-ounded like fowls when we heard that noise just now." "Fowls!" retorted his superior of ficer contemptuously; "fowls, you fool! You've got fowls on the brain since you got those boys convicted. No, it'a something worse than fowls, I can tell you. I always did think that Hall wasn't all he should be. And him so quiet too! Well! well! there's no , knowing what any one's character is till he's found out. It's a harem, that's what it is. I've seen a'picture of one in the Windsor Magazine, and recog nize it easy. There's hanging lamps that don't look as if they was meant to burn respectable oil in decent houses. And there's couches without any legs, like a bed made up on the floor —divans, don't they call 'eni? — ail in stripes and gaudy colors, and heaped lip with soft pillows. Down light heathenish, I call it. There's a big table in the ni» idle that's got a big white cloth thing over it as if there v.as something on it that was too wicked even for Hall to look at long. We shall find something pretty there. I'll promise you, when we get down Well, well, it's a wicked world we live in." "Is there any women there?" in quired the intelligent Stocker, with li.ore interest than lie had previously manifested. "A harem's a place where they ker-p a lot of lovely women, ain't it? I've seen one at the 'Quarium when 1 went to London. They had golden hair, and wore trousers made of gold and stuff, and lay about on couches and looked cross." "No, that's what 1 can't make out," i(plied his chief. "There ain't no wo men, but there soon will be. you mart, my words, llall and Hubboek have gone to fetch 'cm now they have got il all ready. That's why there's no (ne at home to-day. A pretty pair of rascals they are, a bringing their Ko maiul Catholic ways into a Christian country. I'll harem 'em before I've done. You go and see if you can find me a bit of rope so as I can fasten it to the chimney stack and let myself down into the room. I'm going to see vhaf ; ou that table, harem or no harem." The seanh for a rope was appar ently successful, and as the sergeant had in th 3 meanwhile been working hard to make the bv>le in tlie roof large enough to admit his body, he bade fjtocker come up and hold onto the end which was hitched to the chim ney stack, while he lowered himself into the room. Curiosity getting the better of dis cretion, I very guardedly inclined my j head outward an inch or two beyond the projecting rim of the table, and | twisting my neck round, looked up. | The sergeant, hanging onto the rope, ! had just got clear of the hole in (lie j roof, and was preparing to lower him j self down hand-over-hand. Through the opening ovwr his head, the red and bovine face of Stocker was star ing. He was watching the sergeant's progress with eager interest, but the movement of my withdrawing head apparently attracting his attention, he craned through the aperture, and J catching sighl of me, pointed down i with an excited yell to where 1 was lying. Whether the shout so startled the : sergeant as to cause him to lose his ; hold, or whether what happened was j caused by the letting go by Stocker !of the end of the rope which was i hitched around the chimney stack, I ! cannot say. All 1 know is that the j unfortunate serseant fell with a crash, | pulling down with him one of the lamps that lighted the table. This lamp, though of oriental and ancient nianuiacture, hail been prostituted by Hall to so base a use as the burning of paraflln: and as artificial light was a necessary, even during ilie day-time, in our prophet's chamber, the lamp was unfortunately burning at the time. As it fell it struck tho edge of the table ami cannoned--a terrible tongue of fire —against the wall, which, as the reader knows, was draped, lenl CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, • THURSDAY, APRIL 7, 1904 wise, from floor to ceßlng with some Indian fabrics. The room, being di rectly under the roof, was always hot, and this fabric bad evidently become as dry and inflammable as tinder. CHAPTER XXIV. "FIKJS!" There was, as I have twice already mentioned, a strong wind blowing out side, and this doubtless played no lit tle part in bringing about what fol lowed. 1 remember that as the lamp fell, a licking tongue of fire ran—like a monkey running up a rope—along tlio drapery, and that before I had time to get out from under the table, almost before the gaping face of Stoeker had disappeared from the hole overhead, the entire roof was one sheet of flame. I learnt afterwards from Number Two that lie had the house retiled before be and Hubbock had set. about con structing the secret chamber. The in telligent British workman to whom the task was entrusted hail made a heavy additional charge in the bill for what lie called "weather-proofing" the roof, by a method of his own inventing, ui)on which lie greatly plumed himself. 111 the matter of keeping rain out. this system of weather-proofing gave Hail every satisfaction, lint, viewed from another standpoint, it caused him con siderable uneasiness, for lie had re cently discovered that the material used for wadding the interstices oe tween the tiles, was a kind of skein oaktrfn, which, being saturated with tar, was highly inflammable. Like every wise man, Number Two had a horror of fire, and he at once decided to substitute an asbestos preparation for the oakum. The asbestos had been procured, and the work of substitution commenced, when the unexpected ad vent of the conspirators, and tlitir in stallment. a! Heath cottage, put a stop to a work which the fates had de creed should never be finished, for within three minutes from the falling of the lamp, the upper part of Heath cottage was a royal roaring furnace. "Warm work, that!" gasped Number Two, breathlessly, when lie, Hubbock, the silent councillor, Number Six, and myself—coughing and choking and not all unsinged—found ourselves out side. "Warm for the bobbies, too, poor devils The man on the roof was in the thick of the lire, and must be a cinder by now. I think the other chap hurt himself when lie fell; anyhow, he hasn't got out, and never will now. We'd better be off, and by separate ways. The neighbors will be here ift 110 time. But we must settle some place of meeting first. Where shall it. lie. and when? To-morrow morning at 12, by the bookstall at St. Pancras station. I'll secure a carriage to our selves by the Southend train, and we can talk things over going down. No one will notice us there, and if they do, they'll only think we are going to a bean-feast party. So we are, for we're going to give some of them 'beans' before we've done with them — aren't we? Now I'm oil', and you'd 'letter do the same." As tiie other four struck across the field I made for the high road. I had snatched up my hat when leaving the cottage, and as there was nothing if my dress to attract attention, and I hat! 110 reason to believe that I was known personally to, or wanted by, the police,l thought my safest plan would be togo boldly ahead. After I had walked n mile or so, I met a black-bearded man dressed as if for bicycling and wearing a cloth cap. "Can you tell me." lie said, politely, "which is tiie shortest way to a house called Heath cottage, in the occupation of a Mr. Hall?" "No," I replied, "I can't." "Then you are a stranger in this neighborhood ?" he asked. "I'm a stranger to you," I said, curt ly, resenting his inquisitiveness. "I see. Then when you said just now that you couldn't tell mo my way to Heath cottage, you meant that you didn't want to?" "11' you like," i answered. "Take it either way. It's none of your busi ness." "Oh. yes, it is," was his off-hand re ply. "1 happen to be a police officer, you see, and i shall have to trouble you to return with me as far as Tar borough." Then he burst into a laugh. "Don't upset yourself, Number Seven. I only wanted to satisfy myself that tiie dis guise was ail right, and it certainly seems to be so, since yen didn't recog nize your chief and late host." "Yt.>.< took me by surprise," I said, feeling and looking rather foolish, "and gave nie a bit of a fright into the bargain. I recognize you now easily enough. But to meet you coming in this direction and in a disguise was enough to deceive any one. How on earth did you manage it in the time? You haven't been into the cottage again, surely?" "Easiest thing in the world, my dear fellow," he said, lightly. "My motto | is, 'Always be prepared for an emer j gency.' \\ hen you saw me last, some ; 20 minutes ago, 1 was wearing a pep ! per-and-salt coat and trousers. But my clothes are all made with two sides jlO them. There's nothing unusual I about this coat, is there, except that it j is buttoned close, as all my coafs are. | But. if you turn it inside out. it would I be pepper-and-salt again instead of blue serge. I always wear stockings instead of socks, and the arrangement iof my own by which I can change j trousers into knickerbockers is simple, and works so well, thai I think of pat . enting it one day. The beard and ihe cap I carry in my pocket, so I made a dressing-room of the first secluded place I came to, and here I am, very much at your service. "Now look here. Number Seven." he went on. changing his tone abruptly. 'I slipped across the fields to intercept vou because I want a word with you. This council is getting a ghastly farce. You and I and Hubbock can work to gether iiil bat lue other two are simply deadheads. Perhaps Its my fault. 1 begin to realize that I was mistaken in thinking I could handle the team as Number One did. That man was a positive genius. His organ izing power was marvelous. The six of us worked together under hint like oarsmen in a boat. There was no waste effort. He used the whole of us, and put out his men when he had any little scheme on, like a captain placing his team in the cricket field. Now everything's changed. One or two of us bring the brains and do the work, and the rest just look on, and take no risk nor pari in the business except sharing the profits. It's not like tin? same thing it used to be. You weren't a member of the syndicate in those days. Then it was a power in the world. Then tilings were planned and carried out on a big scale. Number One was a genius and worked the six of us, for what, we were worth, so that we were all like so many wheels in one big perfectly acting machine. Now we are just a gang of vulgar criminals, with nothing in common between us either in mind or methods except that we share the plunder alike. The syn dicate lias gone to pieces since the chief's death. I thought I could step into his shoes, and take it up and carry it 011 from the point he left it at; but I've found out my mistake by now, and 1 can see no good and a precious lot of danger in our hanging together any longer. "But I'm going to make just one more attempt, to carry a big scheme through, upon the lines the chief used togo upon, so that each member of the council bears his part. If it fails, I shall chuck it, and retire from the syndicate altogether. You and I and Hubbock could run the show better without the other two men than with them, and thrre'd be only three instead of five "to share the profits. I fancy you'll see your way to join us, and to throw those two fools over. That's all I have to say to you, and I'm going now. But think it over, and if you feel inclined to stand in with 11s, put a floVer« of some sort in your button hole to-morrow." f'X'o I)o Continued.] Her Heart IN Mimical. Prof. Ileitter of Vienna, recently astonished the medical society of that city by saying, that one of his pa tients had a musical heart. She is a woman, and ever since her fourth year she has suffered from, palpitations. While stil! very young she noticed that a harmonious and thrilling sound camo from her chest whenever she breathed, and a year or two later this music became so distinct that any one who was in the same room with her could hear it. As she grow older it became more shrill and closely resembled a hum in voice. At present this curious music consists of only two notes, which are described as being very sweet and clear. Prof, lieit ter and the other mem bers of the medical society are now studying this singular phenomenon, and the result of their investigations is awaited with interest by physicians throughout Europe.—Stray Stories. Knilcil in IlenliiiK Clot lien. Canon Marriott, of Bermuda, spent the latter part of the summer at hen ox, Mass. The canon is exceedingly fond of music, and his acquaintance with musicians is extensive. The canon told one day a story about Offenbach. "Offenbach," he said, "once had an unusually good valet. The man could shave, cook, tailor, market, doctor horses —do, in a word, a thousand things. Offenbach nevertheless dis charged him. " "Why,' his friends said, 'did you dismiss a servant so apt?'

Once he was greatly dis pleased at the smallncss of tlie collec tion after a special charitable appeal.
