The telegraph messenger looked
again at the address on the envelope In
his hand and then scanned the house
before which he was standing It was
an old-fashioned building of brick, twvt
stories 'high, with an ettie above; and
it stood In an old-fashioned part of
lower New York, not far from the Kast
river. Over the wide archway there
was ft small and weather-worn sign.
"Ramnpo Steel and iron Works," and
over -tha smaller door nlongslde was a
still smaller sign, "Whittier, "Wheat
croft & Co."
When the messenger boy had mnde
out the name he opened this smaller
door ana entered 'the Ions, narrow
Wore. Its sides and walls were cov
ered with bins and racks containing

t the Address.
sample steel rails and Iron beams and
colls of wire of various sizes. Down at
the end of the store were desks where
several clerks and bookkeepers were at
work.
As the messenger drew near a red
headed olllee boy blocked the passage,
saying, somewhat aggressively," Well?"
'Got a, telegram for Whittier, Wheat
croft & Co.," the messenger explained,
pugnaciously thrusting himself for
ward. "In there!" the office boy returned,
Jerking his thumb over his shoulder
toward the extreme end of the build
ing, an extension, roofed with glass
and separated by a glass screen from
the space iwhere the clerks were at
work.
The messenger pushed open the
Flazed door of this private office, a bell
jingled over his head, and the three
occupants of the room looked up.
"Whittier, Wheatcroft & Co.?" said
the messenger, Interrogatively, hold-
ins our. the ve aw envolona
"Yes," responded Mr. Whittier, a tall,
handsome old gentleman, taking the
telegram. "You sign, Paul."
The youngest of the three, looking
like his father, took the 'messenger's
book and glancing at an old-fashioned
clock which stood In the corner, he
wrote the name of the firm and the
hour of delivery. He was watching the
messenger go out when his attention
was suddenly called to subjects of more
importance by a sharp exclamation
from .his father.
"Well, well, well," said the elder
Whittier, with his eyes fixed on the
telegram ho had Just read. "This is
Very strange very strange. Indeed!"
"What's strange?" asked the third
occupant of the office, Mr. Wheatcroft,
a short, stout. Irascible-looking man,
.with a shock of grizzling hair.
For all answer l.Vlr. Whittier handed
to (Mr. Wheatcroft the thin slip of pa
per. No sooner had the Junior partner read
the paper than he seemed angrier than
ever.
"Strange?' he cried. "I should think
It was strange! Confoundedly strange
and deuced unpleasant, too."
'IMay 1 see what It Is that's so very
strange?" asked iPaul, picking up the
dispatch.
"Of course you can see It," growled
Mr. Wheatcroft, '"and let us see what
you can make of It."
The young man read the message
aloud: "Deal off. Can get quarter
cent better terms. Carkendale."
Then he read it again to himself. At
last he said: "I confess I don't see
anything so very mysterious In that.
We've lost a contract, I suppose but
that must have happened lots of times
before, hasn't It?"
"It's happened twice before this fall,"
returned Mr. Wheatcroft fiercely, "af
ter our bid had been practically accept
ed, and Just before the signing of the
final contract!"
"Let me explain, Wheatcroft," Inter
rupted the elder Whittier gently. "You
must not expect my son to understand
the Ins and outs of this business as we
do. Besides he. has been In the office
only ten days."
"I don't expect him to understand,"
prowled 'Wheatcroft. 'Wow could he?
I don't understand It myself!"
'iClose that door, Paul," said Mr.
"Whittier. "I don't want any of the
clerks, to know what we are talking
about."
"Here are the facts In the case, Paul,
and I think you will admit that they
are certainly curious," began iMr. Whit
tier. "Twice this fall, and now a third
time, we Have been the lowest bidders
for important orders, and yet, Just be
fore our bid was formally accepted,
somebody has cut under us by a frac
tion of a cent and got the Job. First
we thought we were Kolng to get th
building of the Barataria Central's
bridge over" the Little Mackintosh
river; but In the end it was the Tuxedo
Bteet company that got the contract.
Then there was the order for the fifty
thousand miles of wire for the Trans
continental telegraph we made an ex.
traordlnarily low estimate on that. We
wanted the contract and we throw off
not only our profit, but even allowances
for office expenses and yet five min
utes before the last bid had to be In
the Tuxedo company put in an offer
only a hundred and twenty-five dol
lars less than our. (Now, comes the
telegram today. The Methuselah' Life

mate on the steel . framework. We
wanted that work -times are hard and

can. We meant to have this contract

Mr. Cnrkendale. ITo told me yester
day that our bid was very low, and
that wo were certain to get the con
tract. And now he sends mo this," and
Mr. Whittier picked up the telegram
ag in. t
"Do you mean to say that you think
the Tuxedo people have somehow bovn
made acquainted with our bids?"
asked the young man.
"That 'f) what I'm thinking now,"
was Wheatcroft'? sharp answer. "I
can't think anything else. For two
months we haven't been successful in
getting a single one of the big con
tracts. We've .had. our share of the
little things, of course, but they don't
amount to much. The big things that
we really wanted have slipped through
our lingers. We've lost them by the
skin of our teeth every time. That
isn't accident, Is it? Of course not!
Then there's only-one explanation
there's a leak In thisolllce somewhere.'
"You don't suspect any of the clerks.
do you, (Mr. Wheatcroft?" nsked the
elder Whittier, sadly.
"I don't suspect nnybody In partlott
lar." returned the junior partner.
brushing his hair up the wrong up.
"And I suspect everybody In general.
I haven't an Idea who it is, but it's
somebody!"
"Who .mnkes up the bids on these
Important contracts?" asked Paul.
"Wheatcroft and I," answered his
father. "The specitleatlons are for
warded to the works, and tin- engineers
make their estimates of the actual
cost of labor and material. These os
tlmates arc sent to uh here, and we add
whatever we think best for Interest
and for expenses, and for wear and
tear and for profit.
"Who writes the letters making the
offer the one with the actual ligures,
I mean?" the son continued.
"1 do," tho elder Whittier explained.
"I have always done It."
"You don't dictate them to a type
7 writer?" l'nul pursued.
"Certainly not." tho father respond
ed. "I write them with my own hand
and what's more, 1 take the press
copy myself, and there is a special
letter-book for such things. This
letter-book Is kept always in the safe
in this oilice in fact, I can say that
this particular letter-book never leaves
my hands except to go into that safe.
And, as you know, nobody has access
to that safe except Wheatcroft and
me."
"And the major," corrected the
junior partner.
"Xo," Mr. Whittier explained, "Vnn
Zandt has no need to go there now."
"Hut he used to," Mr. Wheatcroft
persisted.
"He did once," tho senior partner
returned, "but, when we bought those
new safes outside there in the main
ofllcs there was no longer any need
for the chief book-keeper to go to this
smaller safe; and so. last ntonth It
was while you were away, Wheatcroft
Van Zandt came In here one after
noon and said that as he never had oc
casion to go to this safe, he would
rather not have the responsibility of
knowing the combination. I told him
we had perfect contidence In him "
"I should think so!" broke In the ex
plosive Wheatcroft. "The major has
been with us thirty years now. I'd
suspect myself of petty larceny as
soon ns him."
"As I said," continued the cider
Whit.tier, "I told him that we trusted
him perfectly, of course. Hut he urged
me, and to please him I changed the
combination of this safe that after
noon. You will remember, Wheat
croft, that I gave you the new word
the day you came back."
"Yes, T remember," said Mr. Wheat
croft. "Hut I don't see why the major
didftiot want to know how to open that
safe. Perhaps he Is beginning 'to feel
his years now. lie must be fiO, the
major; and I've been thinking for some
time he looked worn."
Five minutes later Mr. Whittier, Mr.
Wheatcroft and the only son of the
senior partner left the glass-framed
private oilice, nd, walking leisurely
through the long store, passed into the
Street.
They did not notice that the old
bookkeeper, Major Van Zandt, whose
high desk was so placed' that he could
overlooked the private office, had been
watching them ever since tho messen
ger had delivered the dispatch.

After luncheon, ns It happened, both
the senior nnd the junior partner of
Whittier, Wheatcroft & Co. had to at

several ways, leaving Paul to return to
the office alone. When he enmn oppo

weather-beaten sign of the firm, he
stood still for a moment nnd looked
across with mingled pride and affec

cupy tt. It was Paul Whlttiers great
grandfather who, hail founded the lta
mupo works; there had been cast the
cannon for many of the chips of the
little American navy in the war of 1S12.
Again, in IMS, had the house of Whit
tier, Whuatcrof l & Co. the present iMr.
Wheatcrol't's father having been taken
into purnership y Paul's grandfather
been, able to be of service to the
government of the United States. All
through' the four years that followed
the tiring on the llag in 18B1 the Kama
po works had been run day and night.
When peace came at last, and the peo
ple hud again leisure to expand, a
large share of the rails needed by the
new overland roads, which were to
bind the east and the west together In
Iron bunds, had been rolled by Whittier,
Wheatcroft tc Co. lf late rcurs, ns
Haul know, ,tlie old firm seemed in nave
lost some of its early energy, nnd hav
ing young and vigorous competitors, it
had barely held its own.
That the Kamapo works should, once
more take the lead was Haul Whittier's
solemn purpose; and to this end he had
been carefully trained, lie was now a
young man of nearly 25 a tall, hand-
Mttsgkik I J if

Night?"
some fellow, with .a full mustache over
his linn mouth, and with uuiek eyes
below his curly blown hair. Jlo had
spent four years in college, carrying
off. honors in mathematics; he wan pop
ular with his classmates, who made
hint class, poet; nnd In hi.s senior year
he was elected president of tho college
photographic society. He had gone to
a technological institute, where he had
made himself master of the theory and
practice of metallurgy. After a year
of travel in iKuiope, where he had in
vestigated every important steel nnd
Iron Works he could get into, ho had
come home to take a desk in the olllee.
It was only for a moment that lie
stood on the sidewalk opposite, looking
at the old building. Then ho threw
away bis) vlgaretto cind wont over.
Instead of entering the long store, he
walked down the alley-way left open
for the heavy wagons. When he came
opposite the private olllee in the rear
of the store he examined the doors
and the windows carefully to see if
he could detect any means of ingress
other than those open to everybody.
As Paul entered the private olllee he
found the porter there putting coal on
the lire.
Stepping back to close the glass door
behind him, that they might bo alone,
he pa Id:
iMike, who shuts up the office at
nlsht?"
"Sure, I do. Mister raul," was the
prompt answer.
"And do you open It In tho morning?"
the young man nsked.
"I tin that," Mike responded.
"Do you see that these windows are
always fastened on the Inside?" was
the next query.
"Yes, '.Mister Paul," the porter re
piled. "Well," and the Inquirer hesitated
briefly before putting this question,
"have you found any one of these
windows unfastened any morning late
ly when you came here?"
"And how did you know that?" Mike
returned in surprise.
"What morning was it?" asked Paul,
pushing hi advantage.
"It was last Monday mornin'. Mister
Paul," the porter explained, "nn' how
it was I ditnno. for I had every wnn o'
the windows tight Saturday night
an' Monday mornin wan o' them was
unfastened whin I wlnt to open It to
let a bit o' air into the office here."
"You sleep here always, don't you?"
Paul proceeded.
'i ve slen here Ivlry night for three
year now come Thnnksglvin'," 'Mike re
plied. "I've the whole top o' the house
to myself. It's an illgant apartment I
have there. Mister Paul."
AVhen 'Mike had left the office. Paul
took a chair before the lire and lighted
a cigar. For haft an hour he mt
silently thinking.
He came to the conclusion that Mr.
Wheatcroft was right in bis suspicion.
Whittier, Wheatcroft K- Co. bad lost
important contracts because of under
bidding due to knowledge gurreptlously
obtained. 'Ho believed that some one
had got Into tho Btore on Hunday while
Mike was taking a walk, nnd that this
somebody had somehow opened the
safe. There was never any money In
that prlvute safe; It was Intended to
contain only Important papers. It did
contain the letter-book of the firm's
bids, nnd this is what was wanted by
the man who hail got into the olliee and
who had let himself out by the window,
leaving It unfastened behind him.
What grieved him when he had come
to this conclusion was that the thief
for such the hotisit-brenker was In
reality was probably one of the men
In the employ of the lirm. It seemed to
him almost certain that the man who
had broken In knew nil the Ins nnd outs
of the office. And how could this knowl
edge have been obtained except by an
employe? l'nul was v,ell acquainted
with the clerks in the outer office.
There were five of them. Ipeluding the
old bookkeeper; and although none of
them hud been with the firm ns long
ns the Major, no one of them had been
there less than ten years.
While Haul was sitting quietly In the
private office, smoking a cigar, with all
his mental faculties at t heir highest
tension, tho clock In the corner sudden
ly struck three.
Paul swiftly swung nrounn in nis
chair and looked at It. An old eight
day clock it was, which not only told
the time of day, but pretended nlso to
supply miscellaneous astronomical in
formation. It stood by Itself In thfc
corner.
For a moment nrter it strucK rani
stared at It with a lixed gaze, as
though he did not see what he was
looking at. Then a light came Into bin
eyes and a smile flitted ncross his Hps.
He turned arounn in nis cnair smwiy
nnd measured with his eye the propor
tions of tho mom. the distance between
thp desks and the safe and tne clock.
Ho glanced up at the sloping glass roof
nlove him. Then Sic smiled again, and
again sat silent for a minute. He rose
to his feet and stood with his bnck to
the fire. Alinost In front of him was
the clock in the corner.
He took out his wa.tcli iml com
pared. Its time with that of the clock.
Apparently he found that the clock was
too fast, ror no wniKeir over to it ana
turned the minute hand back. It
seemed ns though this was a more dif
ficult feat than he supposed or that
he went about it carelessly, for tho
mlrluto hand broke off short In his
flnows. A spasmodic movement of his
s the thin metal snapped pulled the
chain w its cylinder, ana the weight
fell with a clfisH.
All the clerks looked up; and the red
headed office boy was prompt In an
swer to the bell Paul rang a moment
after. ?. .-. V ' ' '
"Bobbv." saldr th young" man to the
boy oa km took his hat and overcoat.
"I've Just broken tlje clock. " I know a
shop where they make a specialty of re
pairing timepieces like that. I'm going
to tell them to send for U at once. 5iv
it to the man who will come this after
noon wltit my card. Do you under
stand?" "Cert," the boy answered. "If he
ain't got your card, he don't get the
clock."
"That's what I mean," Paul respond
ed, as he left the office. -
Ilefore he reached the street door he
met Mr. Wheatcroft.
"Paul," cried the junior partner ex
plosively, "I've been thinking about
that about that you know what I
mean! And I've decided that we had
better nut a detective on this thing
at once!"
"yes." said Paul, "that's a good
idea, lit fact, I had Just come to the
same conclusion. I
Then he checked himself. lie had
turned slightly to speak to Mr. Vhat
cixfit, and now he saw that Major Van
XaudC was standing within ten feet of
tliem, nnd he noticed that the old book
keeper's face was strangely pale.

and luxuries; that he would lind In the
Fifth Avenue. New York,' says an
eastern paper. The townspeople in the
one night stand:! also consider that
they have their grievances occasionally
when a theatrical troupe drops down
upon them. Tho advent of forty or
fifty chorus maidens, several smoothly
sliaven comedians, to say nothing of
the heavy old woman, the juvenile man
and the manager always causes con
sternation in a small village, nnd the
small village cannot always produce on
short notice 'the many things demand
ed by the 'troupe.
ri. K. Rlee has been conducting his
famous "HSy" company, which will be
seen here next week, over a frontier
of New JOngland villages and has met
with many adventures. Homo of the
girls felt severely slighted, not to say
injured, because they could not spend
Hielr salaries on candy and sealskin
capes during the Interval 'that succeed
ed between the amusement of the au
dience in Ipswich and Skowhegan.
They resolved they would get even
with the next one they struck, and In
a very peremptory way. it was a sim
ple plan only this:
When the company reached a cer
tain town which may as well be called
Marlborough, Mass., as anything cIho
they would register, not under their
own nanies. biit the names of the rides
which they' Impersonated. When the
company arrived at Marlborough, they
tiled in solemn procession from the
railway train to the solitary hotel. The
usual number of townspeople were
standing around to see "the troupers"
nnd wonder as to their real identity.
This wonder was somewhat Increased
when (.Mr. Unssow grasped the pen nnd
firmly inscribed his name In the recls
ter as "Kenllnand of Aragon." The
surprise on this occasion was not in
the least decreased when Mr. AVIlliams
wrote his unpronounceable name and
retired In good order. Mr. Smith made
himself known ns Captain Martin Pin
ion, end handed the register to his fellow-conspirator,
Mr. Douglass, who
not being tall enough to reach over the
counter, squatted on the floor and
wrote himself down as Don Pedro Mar
go rite.
The proprietor of the hotel began to
look frightened ns he contemplated
these wonderful signatures nnd the
Nihilistic crowd responsible for them.
Miss J Jessie Poneliill came next and
wrote "Infanta Johanna." with a line
Italian hund, hut trouble began brew
ing when Will Cnrleton. with a. very
solemn face announced himself In
black nnd white ns "Jim Confidence, of
the tribe of l;uneo." The crowning
blow was, however, when Itichard liar
low stepped up to the desk and wrote
In (iotliin letters that took up half a
page, "Isabella, of Castile."
This was more than' the long-suffering
townspeople nnd landlord could
stand. The landlord had seen so many
queer things that he began to doubt
the evidence of his senses, nnd fiercely
demanded to know If Mr. Harlow was
a man or a woman. Harlow attempted
to answer, but the landlord was furious
and hardly listened, but threatened to
close his hotel at once. It was at this
point that help came from .Manager K.
K. Itlce. .Tie registered his name bold
ly. -Air. P.ire and the landlord retired
Into a corner while 'Mr. liice talked.
The talk was in pantomime, but it
tickled the rest of the company Im
mensely. The landlord's face broad
ened, finally a smile played around the
corner of his lips, then be burst Into a
broad grin, a'nd the members of the
"H!2" company were never treated so
gorgeously In a one-night stand as they
were in Marlborough.

always very sore over the kidneys, and
tho urinn emitted a strong odor. At
times I felt existence a task. I tried
