"Yes," nald Barjan. He steed up.
"I guess that's geed enough, and I
guess that's the end of Dave Hender Hender

sort of way. "I don't knew whether

"There's some paper in the bottom

said Nlcole Caprlane unconcernedly.
"Yeu can wrap them up."
Barjan, with a nod of thanks, se
cured the paper, made a bundle of the
clothes, nnd tucked the bundle under

Well, I will pay well again. Listen 1 I

Hendersen; and I told the police no.
But it h nlwnys possible that I have
made a mistake. J de net think se
but It is nlwnys posslble eh? Well,
I must knew, Little Peter. The police
will Investigate further, nnd se will
Baldy Vlckcrs' gang they had It in for

devil, Little l'etcr. Find out if the
police hnve discovered anything that
would indicate I am wrong, nnd de the
same with Baldy Vlckers' gang. Yeu
knew them all, don't you?"
The wizened little rat gclnncd,
"Sure!" he said, out of the corner
of his mouth. "Yeuse can lcave it te
me, Nlcole. I'm wise."
Nicole Caprlane patted the ether's
arm approvingly, nnd smiled the mnn
away.
"Yeu have the whole day before you.
Little Peter," he said. "I am in no
hurry."
NOnce mere Nfcole Caprlane lay back
en his pillows, nnd closed his eyes, nnd
ence mero the guileless smile hovered
ever his lips.
At intervals through the day he mur
mured and communed with himself, and
Remctlmes his cackling laugh brought
Teresa te the deer; but for the most
part he Jay thore through the hours
with the 'placid, cunning patience that
the school of long experience had
brought him.
It was dusk when Little Peter steed
nt the bedslde again.
"Yeuso called de turn, Nicole," he
snld. "Dat was de guy, nil right. I
get next te some of de fly-cops, nn'
dey nln't gqt no doubt nbeut it. Dey
handed it out te de reporters." He
Hipped n newspaper that lie was carry
ing onto the bed. "Yeuse can read it
for yersclf. An' de gang sizes it up de
sarae way. I pulled de window stunt en
'em down nt Merribsey's about nn hour
nge. Dey wns nil derc Baldy. an'

UPy was ilghtin' like n let of bttny

his head wus Beekie.
"Ha sat dere chewln' a big fnt
cigar, an' wigglln' it from one corner
of his mouth te de ether, an' he hnnded
'em seme talk. He give 'cm hell for
mussln' everything up. Snj, Nicole,
take It from me, yoiibe want te keep yer
cye peeled for him. He says te tie
crowd : 'It's a cinch dat Dave Hender Hender
eon's dead, thanks te de damned men
youse have made of everything,' hu
says; 'an' it's n cinch dnt Capriano's
story In de paper is straight It's tee
full of de real dope te be anything else.
But If Dave Hendersen told old Ca Ca
prlaeo dat much, he may have told him
mere sec? Old Caprinne'n a wily
bird, nn' wid n hundred theiiband In
bight le old Dage, wouldn't be asleep.
Anyway. It's our last chance dnt Ca Ca

Inst chance. I'll see dnt it ain't gummed
up. I'll take care of Caprinne my
feclf.' "
Little Peter circled bin lips with his
tongue, ns Nicole Cnpriane extracted n
banknote of generous denomination t'tem
under hl3 pillow, and handed it te the
ether.
"Very teed. Little Peter!" hr sni.1
softly. "Yes, yes very geed! But1
ou have already forgotten it all ch?
la It. net e, little Peter?"
"Sure!" raid Little Pcler caruebtlv. '
"Sure jeutc can bet er life I have!"
"Cioed-by, then. Little Peter," i.uid
Nicole Caprlane softly ngnin. i
He stared for a Ien? while at tie
deer, iiu it closed behind the ether
stared nnd smiled curiously, nnd plucked
with bin lingers nt the coverlet.
"And se they would wntch old bed
ridden Nlcole, would they whjie Nicole
watches ch somewhere else!" he
muttered. "Ha, lm ! Se they will
wntch old Nlcole will they? Well,
well, let them wutch ch?" He looked
around the room, nnd raised hlinbclf up
in bed. He began te rock te and fro.
A red tinge crept into his checks, n
gleam of lire lighted up the coal-black
eyes. "Nicole, Nlcole." he whispered
te himself, "It is like the old days back
again. Nicole and It Is like the old
wine te mnke the bleed run quick in the

THE renewed activity in nearly every line of
industry in this important and populous sec
tion of Philadelphia should be an object lessen
at this time te all manufacturing interests in
various parts of the country.
An analysis of the situation proves that among
our manufacturers there was a real determination
often at sacrifice te hasten the return of healthy
business conditions.
With such men setting the pace, and getting results
new, the future is doubly bright for every one.
