CHAPTER VI
When Paul Whlttler said that he had
photograph! of the man who had been
Injuring the Kamapo Steel and Iron
works, showing him In the act of open
ing the safe. Mr. WhittUr and Mr.
Wheat croft looked at each other In
amazement. iMajor Van Zandt stared
at the young man with fear and sham-;
truggtlng together in his face.
Without-waiting to enjoy his triumph
Paul put his hand in his pock.t and
took out two squares of bluish paper.
"There." he said, as he handed one
to his father, "there is a blue-print of
the man taken In this ottice at ten
minutes past three yesterday after-
"I'm Afraid I IH l'nder.tand It." Mr.
Whlttler SaiJ.
noon. Just as he was about to open
the safe in the corner. You see he Is
kneeling with his hand on the look,
but apparently. Just then, something
alarmed him and- he east a has'y
glance over his shoulder. At that sec
ond the photograph was taken, and
so we. have a full-face portrait of the
man."
lMr. Whlttler had looked at the photo
graph, and he now passed It to the Im
patient hand of the Junior partner.
'You see, Mr. Wheatoroft." Paul con
tinued, "that althougn the face in the
photograph bears a certain family like
ness to Major Van SCandt's. all the
same that Is not a portrait of the ma
jor. The man who was in here yester
day afternoon was a young man a
man young enough to be the major's
son:"
The bookkeeper looked at the speak
er. "Mr. Paul." he began, "you won't be
hard on the" Then he paused ab
ruptly. 'I confess I don't understand this
at all," declared Mr. Wheatoroft Iras
cibly. "I am afraid that I do understand
It." air. Whlttler said, with a glance
of compassion at the major.
"There," Paul continued, handing his
father a second azure square, "there Is
a photograph taken here ten minutes
after the first at three-twenty yester
day afternoon. That shows the safe
open and the same young man standing
before It with the private letter-book in
his hand. As his head is bent over the
pages of the book, the view of the face
is not so good. But there can be no
doubt that It is the same man. You
Bee that, don't you, Mr. Wheatoroft?"
"I see that, of course." returned Mr.
Wheatoroft, forcibly; "what I don't see
Is why the Major here should confess If
he Isn't guilty!"
"I think I know the reason for that,"
said Mr. Whlttler gently.
"There haven't been two men at our
hooks, have they?" asked Mr. Wheat
croft; "the Major and also this fellow
who has been photographed?"
IMr. Whlttler looked at the old book
keeper for a moment.
'MaJor," he said, with compassion In
his volQe, ."you won't tell me that It
was you who sold our secrets to our
rivals? And though you might confess
it again and again, I should never be
lieve It. I know you better. I have
known you too long to believe any
charge against your honesty, even If
you bring It yourself. The real culprit,
the man who is photographed here, Is
your son. Isn't he? There Is no use of
trying to conceal the truth now. and
there Is no need to attempt It, because
we shall be lenient with him for your
vaker Major."
Thore was a moment's silence, broken
by Mr. Whoateroft's suddenly saying:
"The Major's son? Why, he's dead,
Isn't he? 'He was shot in a brawl after
R spree somewhere out West two or
three yejirs ago. At least that's what
I understood at the time."
' "tt is what I wanted everybody to
understand at the time," said the old
bookkeeper, breaking silence at last.
"But it wasn't so. The hoy was shot,
but h was not killed. I hoped that It
would be a warning to him. and that
he would hiake a fresh start. Friends
of mine got him a place In Alexico
but luck was against him, so he wrote
ttie..and he lost that. Then an old com
rade of mlhe gave him another chance
out in Denver, and for a while he kept
straight and did his work well. Then
he broke down once more and he was
discharged. For six months I did not

know what had become of htm. I've
found out since that he was a tramp
for weeks and that he walked most of
the way from Colorado to New York.
This fall he turned up here In the city,
ragged, worn out, sick. I wanted to
order him away, but 1 couldn't. I took
him back, and got him decent clothes
and told him to look for a place, for I
knew that hard work was the only
thing that would keep him out of mis
chief. He did not tind a place per
haps he did not look for one. Hut all
at once I discovered that he had money.
He would not tell me how he got it. I
knew he could not have come by It
honestly; and so I watched him. I
spied after him, and at last I found
that he was selling you to the Tuxedo
company."
"Hut how could he open the safe?"
cried Mr. Wheatoroft. "You didn't
know the combination."
"1 did not tell him the combination
I did know." wild the old bookkeeper,
with pathetic dignity. "And I didn't
have to tell h!m. lie can open almost
any safe without knowing the combin
ation. JIovv he does It, 1 don't know.
It Is his gift. He listens to the wheels
as they turn and he sets tlrst one
and then the other; and in ten min
utes the swfe Is open."
"How could he get Into the store?"
Mr. Whlttler Inquired.
"He knew 1 had a key," responded
the ol bookkeeper, "and he stole it
from me. He used to watch on Sunday
afternoons till iMike went for a walk
and then he unlocked the store, and
slipped In and opened the safe.
Two weeks ago Mike came back unex
pectedly and he had Jupt time to get
out of one of the rear windows of
this olllce."
"Yes." Paul remarked as the major
paused, ".Mike told me that he had
found a window unfastened."
"I heard you asking about It." Major
Van 7,andt explained, "and I knew that
If you were suspicious he was sure to
be caught sooner or later. So I begged
him not to try to Injure you again. I
offered hlin money to go away. Hut
he refused my money he said he could
get It for himself now and 1 might
keep mine till he needed it. He cave
me the slip yesterday afternoon. When
I found he was gone. I came here
straight. The front door was unlocked;
I walked In and found him just closing
the iafe here. I talked to him and
he refused to listen to ine. I tried to
get him to give up his Idea and be
struck me. Then I left him. and 1 went
out. seeing no one as I hurried home.
That's when Mr. Wheatoroft followed
me. I suppose. The boy never came
back all night. I haven't seen him
since; I don't, know where he Is but
he Is my son. after all. my only son.
And when (Mr. Wheatoroft accused me,
I confessed at last, thinking you might
be easier on me than you would be on
the boy."
"My poor old friend," said Mr. Whlt
tler. sympathetically, .holding out his
hand, which the major clasped grate
fully fur a moment.
"Now we know who was selling us
to the Tuxedo people, we can protect
ourselves hereafter," declared Mr,
Wheatcroft. "And In spite of your try
ing to humbug me Into believing you
guilty, major, I'm willing to let your
son off eny."
"I think I can get him a place where
he will be out of temptation because
he will be kept hard at work always,"
said Paul.
The old bookkeeper looked up as
though about to thank the young man,
but there seemed to be a lump in his
throat which prevented him from
speaking.
Suddenly Mr. Wheatoroft began, ex
plosively: "That's all very w-ll! but
what I still don't understand is how
Pr-.ul got those photographs."
Mr. Whlttler looked at his son and
smiled. "That Is a little mysterious,
Paul," he said, "ni I confess I'd like
to know how you did It."
"Were you 'conceali-d here yourself?"
asked (Mr. Whea-toroft.
"N'o," Paul answered. "If you will
look around this room you will see that
there lsa't a dark corner In which
anybody could tuck himself."
"Then where was the photographer
hidden?" Mr. Wheatcroft Inquired with
increasing curiosity.
"In the. clock,' responded Paul. .
"In the clock?'" echoed Mr. Wheat
croft, greatly amazed. "Why there
Isn't room In the case of that clock for
a thin midget, let nlono a man."
Paul enjoyed puzzling his father's
partner. "I didn't say I had a man
there or a midget, either," he explained.
Just Closing the Safe.
"I said that the photographer was In
the clock and I might have said that
the clock Itself was the photographer."
IMr. Wheatcrlft threw up his hands
In disgust. tWefl," he ciief, "If you
want to go on mystifying us In this
absurd way, go on as king as you like!
But your 'father and I are entitled to
some consideration, I think.
"I'm not mystifying you at all. The
clock' took the pictures automatically.
I'll show you how," Paul returned, get
ting tip from his chair and going to the
corner of ttie office. Taking a key
from his pocket he opened the case of
the clock and revealed a small photo
graphic apparatus Inside with the tube
of the objective opposite the round
glass panel In the door of the case. At
the bottom of the case was a small
electrical batery and on a small shelf
over this was an electro-magnet.
"I begin to see how you did It," Mr.
Whlttler remarked, "but I'm not an ex
pert In photography, Paul, and I'd like
a full explanation. And make It as
simple as you can."
"U'b a very simp thing. Indeed."
said hi son. "One day while I was
wondering how w could best catch the
man who' wa getting at the books,
that clock happened to ' strike, and
somehow It reminded me that In our
photographic society at college we had
once suggested that It would be amus
ing to attach a detective camera to a
timepiece and take snap-shots every
few minute all through the day. I
saw that this clock of ours faced the
safe and -that It couldn't be better
placed for the purpose. . So when I had
thought out my plan, I came over here
and pretended that the clock was
wrong, and in setting U right 1 broke
off the minute hand. Then I had a
man I know send for it to repair it; he
is both an electrician and a photo
graphic expert. Here is a small snap
shot camera loaded with a hundred
and fifty films; and here Is the electri
cal attachment which connects with
the clock so as to take a photograph
every ten minutes from six in the
morning to seven at night. We ar
ranged that the magnet should turn the
spool of film after every snap shot."
"Well," cried Mr. Wheatcroft. "I
don't know much about these things,
but I read the paera and I suppose
you mean that the clock 'pressed the
button,' and the electricity 'pulled the
string.' "
"That's It, precisely," the young man
resiMinded. "Of oourse, I wasn't quite
sure how It' would work, so 1 thought
I'd try it first on a week day when we
were all here. It did work all right and
I made several Interesting discoveries.
I found that Mike smoked a pipe in this
ottice and that Hob played leap frog
In the store and stood on his red head
In the corner there up against the
safe " ,
"The confounded little rascal!" Inter
rupted -Mr. Wheatcroft.,
Paul smiled as he ' continued: "I
found also that Mr. Wheatcroft was
captivated by a pretty book agent and
bought two bulky volumes he didn't
want."
-Mr. Wheatcroft looked sheepish for a
motiunt.
"Oh. that's how you knew. Is it?" he
growled, running his hands impatient
ly through his shook of hair.
"That's how I knew," Paul replied.
"I told you 1 had an $ye on you. It
was the lone eye of the camera. And
on Sunday It kept watch for us here,
winking every ten minutes. rom six
o'clock in the morning to three In the
afternoon it winked ninety times and
nil it suw was the same scene, the
empty corner of the room here, with
the safe In the shadow at first and at
last in the full light that poured dqwn
from the glass roof over us. Hut a lit
tle after three a man came Into the of
fice and made ready to open the safe.
At ten minutes past three the clock
and the camera took his photograph
in the twinkling f an eye. At twenty
minutes past three a second record was
made. -Hvfore half past three the mnn
was gone and the camera winked every
ten minutes until seven o'clock this
morning and got the roll of negatives.
One after another I developed them,
disappointed that I had almost counted
a hundred of them without reward.
Hut the ninety-second and the ninety
third paid for all my trouble."
Mr. Whlttler gave his son a look, of
pride. "That was very Ingeniously
worked out, Paul, very Ingeniously, In
deed," he said. "If It had not been for
your clock here I might have found It
ditllcult to prove that the major was
Innocent especially since he declared
himself guilty."
'.Mr. Wheatoroft rose to his feet to
close the conversation.
"I am glad we know the truth, any
how," he asserted, emphatically. And
then as though to relieve the strain on
the old bookkeeper he added, with a
loud laugh, at his own Joke: "That
clock had It hands before Its face all
the time but It kept Its eyes open for
all that!"
"Don't forget that It had only one
eye," said Mr. Whlttler. Joining In the
laugh. "It had an eye to Its duty."
"You know the French saying,
father." added Taul: "In the realm of
the blind the one-eyed man is king."

THE WORLD OF BUSINESS
STOCKS AND BONDS.
New York, Sept. 10. Greater Interest
was evinced In the international yacht
race by the comparatively few remain
ing members of the -Stock Exchange
than In the market itself. Total sales
were only 219.0(H) shares. The tendency
of prices was downward during the
early part of the session. The early
dect'ne was equal to 1H per cent, in
Missouri Pacltlc. and to 1 in the
general list. Most of these losses were
made up during the afternoon, but the
volume of business continued light,
but speculation ruled firm. The execu
tive committee of the 'Western Union
recommended a quarterly dividend on
their stock, which hud a strengthening
effect. The dealings were confined
mainly to the room traders and were
therefore without special significance.
The market closed llrm In tone.
The range of toduy's prices fur the ac
tive stocks of the New York stock mar

CORES THE TOBACCO HABIT
IN 4 TO 10 DAYS
OR MONEY REFDNDED.
Use All the Tobacco You Want Till
Your "Craving" Is Gone.
NARCOTI-CTJRE is the only remedy la the world that acts
directly on the nerves and drives the nicotine from the system
tn from four to ten day. It leaves the patient in better health
than before taking, and is warranted free from any injurious
ingredients.
NARCOTI CURE is popular because it allows the patient
to use all the tobacco he wants while under treatment, or until
the "craving" and "haukering" are gone. It is then no sacri
fice to throw away tobacco forever.
NAKCOTI-CURE is sold at the uniform price of $3.00 a
bottle and one bottle cures.
Money refunded if a cure is not effected when taken accord
ing to directions.
