Tho property U at 3334 North Gratz street, and the owner contended that his holding was decreased in valuo by tho fact that the grado at tho Intersection of Gratz and Westmoreland streets was a drop of nine feet and that this grade ex tended to 3330 North Gratz street, where by a gradual diminution It ran out. Tho alley to the west of his property and ex tending to Westmoreland street had be fore come out practically nf grade. After the change of grado 17 steps were re quired to get Into Westmoreland street The alley to tho north was unchanged. Experts were called who testified to lower prices as to properties and rentals after the change of grade. Messrs. Lister, Myers and Calvert fixed tho loss In value after tho change of grado at from 'M to J750. Messrs. Bfassey, Flood and Crout testi fied for tho city to the same valuo. The city was represented by Glenn C. Mead, and tho railroad by Mr. Graham. The owner was represented by Kvan B. Lewis and Frederick F. Wlndle. The Jury brought in a vordlct of $100 damages to property. Both sides claimed they had given con sideration to the removal of the dan gerous grade crossing, the city witnesses claimed It was of benefit to the property under consideration. Witnesses for tho owner said It was a far-reaching public benefit, iut could not be reduced to n. claim In money, against owners of nearby property. LESSOR.

Zudora Is kidnapped and put In a secret room of the Chinaman's house. EPISODE V11I. (Continued.) CHANG entered Mllln' automobile, nnu a plain clothes man recognized his faco nnd Immediately warned Storm nnd tho other ofllcers to watch Cong's house. Chang ordinarily would have kept away from his home, but ho was weak and tired nnd wanted nay, needed the solnco of his poppy pipe. Arriving home, he at once conferred with Hnssnm All and was glad to learn that Zudora had been confined to tho walled room. At dawn Mme. Du Boy would convey her to tho ship that was to sail for Cherbourg. From there they would drop doun to Marseilles and sail for Hong Kong. Zudora Tralnor would never be heard of ngaln. "I think that before I smoke I will seo the young lady," said Chang, smiling. Hnssam All smiled, too. In his mind's e-ye he was counting up the enormous pyramids of gold coin. He would build himself a palace close to Paris, and no prince In Hindustani would rival him In luxury. Yet luxury would require tho spending of these pyramids; and straight way his enthusiasm grew cold and died. "I hear automobiles," ho said suddenly and with apprehension. Chang placed a hand to his ear. "And ,they are stopping in front! I will tako care of the girl, and see that you play tho part of Wu Chang well. This is a critical moment. It may bo tho police. Speak softly and kowtow as often as they ask questions. Your make-up In this light will fool them." "No; you remain and let mo go to Zu dora!" "Fool! I am master here. Do ns I say!" With that Wu Chang ran toward the al cove behind which was Zudora's prison. Hassam All swallowed with difficulty; ho was courageous only when he was sure of results. Mme. Du Boy had already vanished. Ho was alone. He rouwed his will and subdued his shaking knees. A bold front for a few moments, and tho dlfllcultles would he surmounted. Tho bell began to ring violently and Immediately after there followed a furi ous ho mmerlng Storm, furious with anger and fear. "That won't do nny good, Mr. Storm," advised one of the detectives. "There'll bo better hammering than that pres entlythat Is, if Chang has had a hand In this abduction." "But they may bo hurting her!" "That'll mako tho hammering all the better," grimly. "Ha! Some ono at the door; old Chang himself, I should say. Tho door opened nnd whnt looked like" the bland face of a cultivated Chinaman peered out at them from the half-opened door. "Gentlemen, what Is this?" "It means, Mr. Chang, that wo will have to search our huue. Urileis" "And for what?" "This gentleman hre." nnd ' ''- tectlvo indicated Storm, "claims that you abducted a young lady this evening, and that she Is here." A low chuckle followed this statement. 'This evening I was at the Delhi hall. I have Just returned. Abduction? The young man is mad. Enter, please, and search." Hassam All was doing very well. con. slderlng the state of hlo knees. Storm and the detectives crowded past hlra and Bwarmed about the house. There was a good deal of unnecessary rucket. As Storm was passing the alcove he ntop ped short, convinced that ho had heard a cry. Ho listened Intently, but heard no further sound. Half an hour later the detectives trooped back to their taxis, their previous convictions that Wu Chang waB a good Chinaman stronger than ever. "She lfl in that house," said Storm stubbornly, "and I'll get her out alone if necessary." The detectives shrugged commlserat Ingly and took solace in cigars. Storm had heard a cry. This Is what had taken place behind the alcove; Chang, curious to learn what Zudora would do, brought her back to her senses, and, reasonably secure in this haven from out side Interference, passed his hands be fore her face. Over his shoulder peered his assistant, his beady eyes blinking at the beauty of the prisoner. Slowly Zudora returned to the world. The faces looked down at her were sufll- JAIL. fc SI fopewhK ) ''Mil1 ' ' rScTZZZr &Acrc im iowin-ww, 1 i 1 IgSSS gf "l sr ', UrfcN-liH n n 111 I " MR. TRAFFIC, l uao& jrmwsmsi TH , ' 4yiy, ?

Instantly Chang nnd his assistant seized her nnd bound nnd Bag ged her. Then the oriental tried to throw her buck Into the trance! but h failed, for Zudora was riot taken unawares this time. She was bewlldeicd nnd could net dream what had happened since that mo ment she had started for the ropo which hung from her boudoir window. Tho two wills fought for n minute, and then Wu Chang stepped back, Blghlng. Ho hnd wasted too much power that night. Tho glrl'B mind was now free, however well her body was bound, So ho left her for tho night. At dawn she would bo oh tho high scan. Tho sooner the hotter, so far ns he wns concerned. When thnt liner drew out of her slip ltnssnm All would place In his hands IftlO slilnllig disks of irnbl. Hut tho nn- I Bwcr to a telephone cnll nt dawn dis mayed wu Chnng. Tho liner would not sail until 1 In the afternoon. Ships do not nlwnjs sail on scheduled time. Ab for Storm, ho did not tnko his clothes oft nt nil, nnd ho was something of a wreck when ho nto n meager break fast. Ho had hoard Zudora call for help as pl-ilnly as If ho had seen her. He thought and thought, nnd finally, recall ing certnln curious features In Wu Chnng's house, fell upon what bo believed to bo the true solution, A secret room, behind that alcove, from whence tho voice had come' He seized tho telephono nnd muted out half a dozen grumbling detectives. Storm was ji coming power; n turn of the wheel might lift him to tho position or District Attorney, and the detectives wnnted to be on the right side of him In that event. Ther" wns a bit ot bluff In his declara tion that lie hnd been mysteriously ap prised of the fnct thnt thero was a hidden room In Wu Chang's house and that Zu dora was there. The detectives wore still skeptical. To return to Zudora. She was still as Chnng had loft her, bound, gagged, help less. There was only one bit of consola tion: her mind whh her own. Through a small, high window outwardly giving the appearance of belonging to tho next house the sun poured in brightly and warmly. She gazed about ongcrly, en deavoring vainly to find something sharp upon which sho could saw her bonds. Tim room had been fnnd evidently Ftill was) a kind of seclusion for Wu Chang when he desiied to puisne his modes of culture. There was a table upon which stood a reader's magnifying glnBS nttaehed to a frame. Quickly Zudora calculated the rays of the sun as the Inspiration came to her. Sho was quite oblivious to the sudden sounds coming faintly through the wall. If she could but reach that table' Fortunately sho was not bound to the chnir. She ros slowly and took short llttlo Jumps, balancing herself nicely. It she stumbled nnd fell, good-by liberty or the chance of it. It took three minutes to reach tho table. With her elbow sho hitched the glass so that tho sun fell full upon It. Instantly the book beneath emltttd n bit of smoke Zudora turned about so that this burning ray became focused upon the hempen cords. Sho felt the smnit and sting of flame upon her wrists. But that was nothing. Tho ray was shriveling thp rops; sho could smell It! Sho strained suddenly nt her wrists and was free! It took but a moment to untwist the rope nnd tear away tho bandage. Pistol hhots! She listened. A pounding began to take place against the vall outside. Her lover had found her! Storm nnd the detectives had entered unceremoniously this time, and a ino bll of warfare ensued. Chang lost his tempet and In doing so lost his liberty. Ho drew a knlfo and sprang at Storm with all that deadly fury of an nngry China man. A lucky bullet from one of tho detectives saved Storm's life. Seizing a handy object. Storm began to beat In tho wall of tho alcove, even while the des perato battle between tho detectives and the Chinamen raged fiercely about him. When tho battle was over and Chang was In irons they got into Zudora's prison. And they found! a trap under a mat, and below they found the sourco of Mr. Wu Chang's fortune thousands of cans of opium. And still further below a big room half filled with the devotees of the drug. Later Hassam All sat In his mystic room and heard from her own lips Zu dora's remarkable advanture. "My child, you hud betcr give up the struggle. In some manner Chang ha heard of your fortune nnd kidnapped you for ransom. Walt until you nre 21. You will still be young enough to marry Storm. "I have concluded to go to tho end. I am determined to solve these 20 riddles, because well, because I begin to find theso adventures the most fascinating things In the world." "Very well, my child; but remember that I have warned you." No sooner wns sho gone from the room than he set to plan somo now deviltry. But for two weeks ho trembled. Chang might speak. But Chang never spoke. His bit of work for Hassam All was of small consequence to other crimes that were unearthed within that fortnight. Wu Chang was not born to die In a cell. A llttlo black pellet In his mandarin's ring opened the way out. (CONTINUED MONDAY.) (Copyright, 1014, by Harold McQrath.) BURNS WAENS OF FORGEItS ' A no-called "Forgers' Trust" compris ing a band of some 20 or 30 criminals whose work extends from coast to coast, Is operating In Philadelphia, according to Detective William J. , Burns, who Is In Philadelphia. While the detective would not state definitely the amoun of the losses Incurred In this city, he said mem bers ot the gang had been operating ex tensively In Philadelphia for the past two months.

MAN OUT OF WORK GIVES HIS VIEWS ON CAUSE OF IDLENESS Blacksmith Says Rich Man ufacturers Here Employ Labor in Other Places to Save Expenses. John F. Tobln, a blacksmith, Is out of work. Ho Is president of tho Interna tional Brotherhood of Blacksmiths and Helpers. Today he had no hesitation in slating Just why ho Is out of work. Ho snld: "The rich peoplo of Philadelphia are directly responsible not only for tho fact that thero oro 1C0O blacksmiths out of employment In Philadelphia, but ns well that they aro bo miserably off. If the blucbloods whose wives and daughters head these relief committees und get their names In the newspapers a dozen times a day nnd shine In society and tho churches aB being devoted to chailty, talk nbout us worklngmcn being consid ered by them as their fuilou-l'u.uim beings, would rup their mills nnd fac tories part time, say four days a week, making nonpcrlshnblo goods, they could nnd would relieve the situation. '.Men with millions won't do that, though. They won't turn a wheel, but k-tp tho plants closed down nnd let the thousands starve and conspire towar'd tho continuance of tho depression. "I know the situation In this city, and I know that there arc some hundreds of mills that could be operated profitably on part time. Do thnt and the bread lines will dwindle away like smoke. Keep up present conditions and the bread lines will get longer and longer. "Tho worst offense against the welfare of their own city and Its wage-earners Is the custom of somo of the makers of machinery, practically all of them, to have many of tho parts of their mnchlnos manufactured at small towns up tho State where the hours of work are from II to 13 hours a day and tho wages $1.75 a day. Figure It out: $10 50 a week for 7n hours' work, $11 for a month of four weeks, and $316 a year. "Metal workers In this city cannot com pete with that sort of labor. But there aro several mills In Philadelphia that mnke Just the castings nnd parts that these country mills turn out. But are they running these days? They aro all closed down, fiecauso the rich owners of tho big mills that uso the parts and as semble their machines will not pay a penny or two more, buy homc-mado ma terials nnd help tho high-class laboring man of Philadelphia keep the wolf from the door, "I say thnt tho people who selfishly and deliberately contilbuto toward this fam ine of work and food ought to bo shown up and condemned for tho benefit of tho nation." Tobln made this statement In nnswer to the query why so many motal workers are out of work. Ho believes tho situa tion hopeless for a good many months. Angus Mcl.eod, n Scotsman, who has been working in shipyards hereabouts hut Is driving ono of the begging wagons at the Galilee Mission, In answering the same question, said: "I worked ot the shipyards at Spar rows Point until the Job was finished. The boss was satisfied with mo nnd was a good friend of mine. Just before the Job was finished ho told mo that I better look for a new Job because there wouldn't be any more work for he didn't know how long. I tried tho Cramp yards nnd the New York Company, hut wns told they were laying off their best men nnd didn't expect to take on any more maybe until after tho war. "When I wasn't earning anything I couldn't send any money to my wife nnd two children In Aberdeen, so I camo hero where I can get a bit to eat and do some thing to pay for It." OBITUARIES DR. D.
