Drawing Fast Trains Between This
City and Reading.
Back from Atlantic City, where It was
on exhibition for the benefit of the rail
rond men's convention, "110," Is pulling
fast passenger trains between Philadel
phia and Heading for the Philadelphia
and Reading Railway. Known officially
tts "Knglne No. 110" and technically as
"Heading 4-1-4 type," this monster, which,
with the tender, neighs 3W.S0O pounds, Is
tlio newest thing possible In locomotlveB.
One of the most remarkable features
of It Is that the axles are hollow. An
other departure Is that aluminum has
teen used to reduce tho weight of the
frame and allow overy pound of extra
weight possible to be put Into tho boiler,
which carries 210 pounds pressure.
Instead of the ordinary reversing lever
there Is a cablo reversing mechanism
operated with a hand wheel, which
mechanism Is so arranged that a mera
operation of It Is sulllclent to tell tho
driver whether his valves are dry or suf-
ncientiy lubricated.
Each driving axle carries a weight of
73,100 pounds nnd tho driving wheels nro
Ml Inches in diameter over the tires. Tho
tractive effort cquala M,G00 pounds and
the factor of ndhcslon Is only 3 99
Four of these engines havo been ordered
from the Reading shops and will be tested

No one deplores the Jack of chivalry In

he asked himself, and their deeds of daring
It was the finding of a sword of ancient
vintage which caused Pud's thoughts to
wander thusly. The weapon, which
locked as though It might have been car
ried by one of Nero's followers, was
lying on the sidewalk at Hopo and Hunt
ingdon streets when Corflgaji happened
along.
And he was Just In the mood for such
things, for the spirit of heroism was
strong within him. Ho picked up the
ancient blade and swished It through the

"It's vacant!" Jeah breathed happily

Jean had no fear of the so-called haunt

CHAPTER XXVI-(Continued).
"TTUHON struck a match, and we
XI found ourselves In a room that
looked like a study, with a writing table
nnd bureau, maps and charts, and that
sort of thing. Huron told me to mount
guard at the door, nnd, kneeling down
began to try a bunch of keys in the
locks of the drawers. As he examined
then) and found them useless he Just
flung them on one side, being In too
much of n hurry to put them back
in their places Looking over his
shoulder, J saw his eyes fixed on a docu
ment beginning I saw the words plain
enough 'This Is the last will and testa
ment of' Before I could read any more
he placed this In his pocket and went to
the next drawer. Ho glanced at the con
tents and said 'Here we are.' 1 saw these
looked Ilko tho plans. 'Hand 'em over,' I
said. 'Walt a moment,' he said, and be
gan to examine them more closely I was
so Interested that I came and stood by
htm, forgetting my post at the door,
which we had not locked on the Inside.
Huron didn't seem In a hurry to give mo
tho plans, so I Just drew them out of his
hand and put them In my breast pocket.
And then all of a sudden the electric light
was switched on and there was a man In
evelng dress In the doorway staring at us.
"He was on me In an Instant and had
me on the ground Ho had Just opened his
mouth to yell for assistance when I heard
the report of a pistol, and he clapped his
hand to his shirt front and dropped flat
across me. His blood stained my coat
collar I" sprang up and made for the door.
I felt 'Huron was after me. In the door
way I nearly knocked over Mrs. Plessey.
who was leaning, white as a ghost,
against the doorpost,
"Eustace. I was horribly skeered! I
expected to have the whole household
after me. I left the door open behind me
and hid among the trees. Presently, to
my surprise, I saw Mrs. Plessey and
luron walking together as cool as could
be near the main drive. Then I saw a
man on a bicycle ride by. I didn't wnlt
for Huron, but got out of the park as
quick sb i could and walked back Into
Portsmouth. It was curious how easily
I escaped. No one had seen me go to
the admiral's house, no one noticed me
at all. I Just took the last train back
to London, let myself Into my boarding
house In Bloomabury and went to bed,
Eustace grunted. "Well, who shot the
old man Huron, I suppose?"
"I don't know for sure, He says ho
didn't. That Mrs. Plessey shot him."
"That his wife shot him? Why should
she?" '
"For Huron's sake, I guess. Any way,
when I came to think over It next morn
ing I saw that things looked pretty bad
for roe. Hurpn came back about 3 In
the afternoon and said that I had better
destroy the papers and make myself
scarce. He said he was going on the.
Continent for a wjilie. That afternoon he
went. I bung around to see what would
happen Then I read that they1 had ar
retted this chap ArroL I wasn't going
to take any more risks, so I took th
next toatr-stiMrags baek to the States
and ain't stlrrsd out of 'em till now I
saw that somehow my whole plot had
falUd Huron tuujn't given me the ad
drees of those forslgn agents he spoke of.
ad I daren't go ts Berlin hawking those
plans arovBd To first office I showed
'em to might have handed me over to
the Brltiffc pAltee.".,
"He certajuly would," agreed Bustace.
"Well. IlVtflTeni InVy pSet till

ment plans, but only the designs for a
new torpedo, which nobody but Arrol
and Huron seems to have known of, and
I was the brother of the woman he
had wronged! I should never have
escaped the rope If I had faced the music.
I shouldn't escape It now If Arrol knew
the whole truth or got hold of thoso
papers."
Sydney spoke hoarsely. He looked hne-
gard and scared. His eyes roamed round
the room "Can I have a whisky,
Eustace-'" he asked feebly.
Hts brother went to a cupboard, pro
duced a bottle of whisky and a glass
and passed them over to Sydney, who
drank half a. glassful of the spirit "neat."
Ha gulped. "That's better," he remarked
approvingly.
The engineer resumed his scat and sat
chewing the end of his cigar. "Well,"
h said at length, "It's a pretty miser
able story. You leave Aline In tho lurch,
she runs away with a Drltish officer and
ends by shooting herself In an opium
den, You turn burglar, steal a man's
papers, trade 'em off on me as your own
etiu ure now a suspected murderer
Eustace drew a deep breath. "Well, that
can't bo remedied now. What are you
so badly skeered about at the present
iiiuiiicuif tvuere uoes Arrol come In?"
"Last Sunday week," explained Syd
ney, "Arrol calls on me at my flat In
New York and begins to talk to me
about the plans, saying he knew they
were the admiral's, and asking me to
say where I got them and so forth. Of
course, I determined to lie low and say
nothing, whereupon ha begins to bluff
and bully, and declares his Intention of
coming back riero to Inform the British
polled. Well, Eustace, after he had gone
I felt badly afraid, While I was think
ing matters over In walks the other
mun I hadn't seen for B years Gilbert
Huron. It was an afternoon of surprises.
Well, Huron told me that Arrol wns out
to clear himself. That lie had somehow
got hold of my name In connection with
this business, and had gone Into part
nership with you especially to get on to
our scent. It seems that he has taken
up With Maud Plessey, the Admiral's
daughter, and she's helping him all she
can U's she. I reckon, who got my
nume out of her mother and passed It
on to Arrol.' Then, while he came over
to America to bounce me, sho smuggled
herself Into my own daughter's confi
dence and has got heaven knows how
much Information about my past out of
ner. cusiace, im up against It, and un
less you stand by me In this I shall end
my days in a .British prison or on a
British scaffpld!"
"Nonsense, man! Your skeered to
death!" Eustace shook his head impa
tiently. "The only evidence to connect
you with the crime Is those plans, which
I can transfer, from the safe tp the fire at
the most distant note ot danger. And as
to Mrs. Plessey being a spy, I don't credit
that for a moment. . Where Is Arrol
now?" He eyes his brother sternly.
"I don't know," answered Sydney.
'You rtn't Know? its might funny he
hain't written me." Bustae bgan again
to paee the rom. "And wjw'i this

abruptly, SbUig a stfii glance at hU

fears and went up the creaking stairs
ana tnrougn the kitchen.
"If only wo could havo this In town,"
sighed the girl, as she went through
room af(er room, each one bigger nnd
more sunny than the last.
On the second floor she found tho room
with the bow window In which her father
was born. Jean peered about as If the
veryiwalls might witness her emotion as
she surreptitiously dabbed tho tears from
her eyes.
Her emotions were verv nnr m. ,.

old home hat had harbored her father's
bo5hood, the very bare room that echoed
her very breathing had all helped to un
string her nerves.
IS' !een 'he nursery with the
phantomshlp border or tho little turret
r"1 i. tl t1 s.,aw from the outside," she
said, half loud.
Jean's courage was at strangely low
ebb when, after seeing the nursery, she
discovered a small, dark stairway which
led to the turret room that she had set
her heart on seeing.
Again lifting tho fluffy laces she made
her way carefully up the winding stairs.

imaginary ones of her own creation
She turned the handle of the door,' tha
oniy one on mat nigh landing. It wns-
wv.ncu. one inea again, making a great
noise.
Tho door opened suddenly, after a great
sound like an explosion.
A hugh man loomed up In the doorway
His face was smeared and his hair was
that of a wild man. A towel had been
swiftly tied across one side of his head
"Oh-h!" Jean shrieked and fell in a.
heap on the dusty floor of tho landing.
When she regained consciousness, she
found that she was lying on a wide, soft
couch, the face bending over hers was
neither grimy nor wild, nor, In fact, any
thing that suggested evil. It still woro
the towel bandaged over one temple, but
tut cApicooiuii sinning in tne eyes was
tenderness, fear and something that
made Jean blush.
"Great Scott! I thought I had killed
you! ho said In tho deep voice Jean had
somehow expected.
She laughed and sat up among tho
cushions, "it wouldn't have been your

off and asked quickly: ''What are you
looking at I feel nervous Is anything
the matter with me?" b
"N?' ,Iwaa only thinking how much
you look like a great pansy there among
tho green pillows."
"That Is rather a funnv thin,. t i.n
girl who Is startled out of her wts and
Is wondering how she ever managed to
stumble on an evidently sane man '
Working among explosives at the ton
of a vacant house." finished Danvers, and
Jean liked his laugh. After Joining It
for a moment, she said:
"Where Is that awful room and where
am I now?"
"You are In my den." ho said, "and it
Is adjoining the awful one In which I
make experiments-It was the latter one
that you heard blow up." Danvers

The girl liked the way her name was

might shake hands."
It seemed for the space of a second as

The pacemaker of comedy sketches
wns unfolded nt Keith's last night with
the modest title of "Married." It Is
something now in the playlet lino and
lm? more fun, mystery and surprises
Jummed together in its 23 minutes than
half a dozon ordinary sketches. Porter
Emerson Browne, tho author, deserves a
oto of thnnks for taking us away from
the hackneyed ruts nnd delivering so
many punches In one production. The
offering Is presented by Homer B. Mason
and Marguerite Keeler nnd the results
indlcato that the" author must havo
1'nown them both for life. To say that
the characters lit like A glovo doesn't
give the slightest Idea of their rilevcr
portrayals. If you havo been hankering
for Bomethlg good you can't afford to
miss this net. A woman suffering from
aphasia drifts Into the hotel room of a
Bwell New Yorker. While she Is roam
ing around a burglar, who cornea to rob
tho place, hits her on tho head. This re
vives her memory somewhat She Bees
a newspaper In tho room wHIch has nn
account of her disappearance from home.
Sho calls a physician whlio the burglar
is hiding and tells him she has Just
realized her plight. But before the doctor
comes tho occupant of tho room arrives.
Ho Is also suffering from nphasla; the
burglar manages to crack him unseen by
the woman His brain Btarts to work
correctly again, nnd on subsequently dis
covering the woman In his bed, ho asks
her to ijiarry him. As the burglar proves
to no a kleptomaniac minister tho cere
mony Is performed at once. Whllo It Is
nil very improbable, tho sketch was the
hit of the season.
Bello Baker held up tho show as the
result of the approval of her up-to-the-minute
songs. The Four Antwerp Girls
played and sang in a way which brought
an nbundanco of applause. Laddie Cliff
proved that ho was just as good as ever
with his peculiar songs nnd dances. Solly
Ward and Lillian Fitzgerald gave some
entertaining nonsense. Others who proved
satisfactory wcro the Cnrbrey Brothers,
dancers; Ward, Bell and Ward, and
Valentine and Bell.
Tho pictures show views of the Liberty
Bell and Its military and naval escort
leaving this city on the Fourth of July.
Here and There
There Is plenty of fun In the Nixon's
Grand's show this week. "Adam Killjoy,"
presented by Harry Holman and com
pany. Is tho biggest laugh maker. The
sketch ls fpll of snap and action, and
was greeted with continuous laughs. An
other good feature is Galettl's baboons,
which do everything you expect and
more. Others who won favor were War
r:n nnd Dietrich, blackface comedians;
Denny and Boyle, in music; Gardiner
Trio, dancers, and Olivette, a clever vio
linists. The pictures were in keeping with the
snow.
The International Dancing Revue
proved to bo an entertaining feature at
tho Cross Keys. It ts presented by capa
ble artists, whose dainty costumes fitted
In well with the production's environ
ment. Billy K. Wells brought no end of
laughs with his dialect stories and char
acter studies. Davis and Williams pre
sented "Hans, the Butcher Bov." whirh
showed that Mark Davis could yodel as
well as ever. Among others who won ap
plause were Marie Arvelle, the Morln
Sisters and Dixon and Dixon.
Charlie Chaplin added to the laugh fest
In a funny picture.
Startling trick's combined with comedy
made the Wllhat Troupe of five cyclists
u wormy ieaiure at Woodslde Park.
Their offering was warmly appreciated by
a large audience. Itobln. the Juggler,
fihowed some new Ideas In that line; John
Dealy and sister won applause. Others
who presented acts of merit wero Bernard
Daly and John J. McCue and May Brown
ing. The free vaudeville has made a decided
hit with the patrons and the shows im
prove each week.
