1'rofPssor Fnurnier was the hadini;
tinlliorltv on nalholony when I was a
young num. Ik lectured ut the Kcole
tie Medei in. nud I was one of the many
tudeuis whose privilege it wns to prof
it hy the enormous fund of know led Re
he had accumulated, and the trctich
iint clearness with which he could cotn
iiiunic'ute it.
The youth wild sat next to me was a
German, named llermun Toedt a tall,
graceful boy, with a remarkably hand
some fact and manners that were un
exceptionable. There was not a trace
hi him or that rude coarseness which
Is often found In his race not a shade
of -that anjrresslve conceit which seems
to characterize most Germans since the
rranco-l'i usstun war. No. Toedt was
always Jolly, ulwuys pleasant, always
deferentially, though never servilely,
polite. I think the other students liked
und looked up to him. not excepting
cert:iln Americans, who had. after their
fashion, christened him "Toad." Kven
then niol'csors seemed to regard him
with pride; more than one had inti
mated that he would hrlns hlvh credit
to the school, and t tlnally believe there
was not a person In the world who
disliked him except Iuk 1'rofessor Four
tiler und myself.
The way 1 came to know that Foiir
Jiler felt us I did was one niRht at a
cafe. was sittintr at a . table with
two friends, while Toedt was the cen
ter of on admitlnt; circ le Just beyond.
It was then, as It Is today, the fash
ion unions" some of the youtmsters In
Hurls to take uo nil sorts of radical
fads, and this patty happened to be
extolling anurchy.
1 "What Is human life'" cried Toedt.
Ilia handsome face Hushed with boy
ish enthusiasm. "Would any of us hes
itate to sacrlllce an animal's, his own
or another's to advance the cuuse of
science or humanity? Why. then,
should we critic ise n poor wretch who
lakes a life which he conceives to stand
in the path of human progress'.'"
The bun!! of approval whic h erected
these words was suddenly broken in
upon by u dear, sharp voice, familiar
to us all:
' "Gentlemen. I
am sorry to hear
you tulkliiK such
c r i in i n a I n o n
Sense." As I glanced up I
saw 1'rof. Four
nier leaving the
c afe. l'assiUK their
table unobserved,
he had evidently
overheard Toedt's
speech, and had
shot this 1'arthian
shaft Into the cir
cle of would-be so
cial reformers.
I looked at Toedt.
A peculiar expres
sion was Just dis
nppcarlnu' from
ills face, to be suc
ceeded iy a crim
son Hush. Then
he laughed scorn
fully, and two or
three of his com
panions followed
his example,
though witli more
constraint In their
tones.

stands in the r.aui
Well, the chariot
may riiu over him." he sulci.
Kven Toedt. however, could not re
store aiaurun.e to the party, so clemor
alliced were they by Founder's blow.
A few minutes later they broke up.
Several years had passed. I had re
ceived my degree from the Kcole, but
hud not entered upon the practice of
medicine, being employed in certain
chemical unci physical researches
Which hud deeply interested me. and In
which. I may suy. I had gained some
sllrht repute.
One day I was surprised and com
plimented to receive a letter from Pro
fessor Founder, in which, after stating
that he had observed my progress with
deep interest and commendation, de
ended by proposing that I should enter
Ills' private laboratory perhaps the
best ecpiippecl in France.
To be known as Founder's assistant
was almost to become famous, and
you may believe I accepted promptly.
Then followed the happiest years of
my life, only n small port Inn of my
fime was taken up in work for mv mas
ter, while facilities which I could never
have aD'orded were placed at my dis
posal for the prosecution of mv pri
vate experiment. In fad. if there was
any cloud upon my horixon. It was in
the forjn of n regret that the professor
did not pin more upon my shoulders,
and one day I ventured to take him to
task for his assumption of detail from
which I stood ready und willing to re
lieve him.
He.snt silent for some minutes.. Then
lie said:.
"I hope you do not doubt my entire
reliance upon your honor, discretion
ncl anility."
"Not in the least." I hastened to say.
"Had I done so I should not have spo
ken ajt-I have."
Foui nier smiled and nodded.
. . "My dear friend." he said, laying his
hand upon my shoulder. "Ifelieve me.
'1 have a weuk and unmanly fear of

. After this It was impossible for me
, hot to observe my master's movements
' more? closely, and I soon found that he
spent much of his time In a certain

Then, cudgeling my brain. I recalled
ttiat I had. frequently seen him tnount
mt the stair, carrying instruments or
part of Instruments, often of strange
ahapes, but which my general knowl
edge' told me must have been designed
for electrical' work. I was also ciuite
positive, from similar observations
that photography bore no small share
In his experiments.
Meanwhile his secrecy Increased.
He now habitually entered or left his
sanctum bearing on his arm a covered
basket, from which on one occasion I

than 1 can tell it, for it seemed to Indi

tion to which I'rof. Founder had al
ways expressed himself us unalterably
Opposed.
To make a Ions story short. I was
posi-essc d night mill day by u furious
curiosity until, at last. 1 did what
even as a young niun and un eager
searcher for sdenlilic truth. I was
thoroughly ashamed of. I hud a key
tilted to the lock of his room: and,
one clay. 1 took advantage of my mas
ter's absence to mount the stairs and
open the door. As I did so. however,
there came to me a full appreciation of
my treachery. I stepped quickly back
closed the portal, descended to the main
laboratory, and. placing the key. the
silent instrument of my guilt. In u small
blast furnace, reduced It In u few min
utes to u shapeless lump of metal.
Still it hud been impossible to con
trol my eyes for the Instuut I had
stood In Unit threshhold. unci it was
equally Impossible, however 1 might
try. to banish
from my mind
a recollection
of objects I
hud seen. Some

Some days later Founder ustonlslied
me by coming down the stairs in great
buste. carrying In his hand u dead
Guinea-pig.
"May I ask you to have this animal
put In' the furnace or have it burled
or thrown nwuy." he said hurriedly. "1
see I am already live minutes late for
my lecture."
lie was gone ere 1 had time to think,
but, as 1 sat with the Guinea-pig be
fore me. I begun to wonder whether my
master had not acted with design and
intended either to pf.t me in the way
of suspecting, or. ut least, to prepare
me. In u measure, for some coming an
nouncement. The more I considered,
the surer I became that there could be
no other reason for his not leaving the
animal for a few hours, or until he
could dispose of It himself.
t'onvincecl of this, 1 ventured to make
a a ril'iil examination of the body. I
soon found, as I expected to Unci, that
its death had been occasioned by no
wound, blow or other external physical
cuuse; but 1 was rather surprised to
discover that ull symptoms of death
through the medium of electricity were
ulso lucking. No theory seemed to re
main but that of poison, and, fully de
termined to exhaust all the evidence
w hich had been placed In my hands. I
look out the brain, stomach und in
testines and proceeded to subjec t them
to a thorough analysis.
Tills work employed me several days,
but I found absolutely no sign upon
which to base the barest suspicion of
the use of any known drug. There
seemed to be no escape from the dilem
ma that either Prof. Founder was the
most accomplished toxicnlogist ever
known or that the Guiucn-plg had died
from purely natural causes.
J luring the time occupied In these ex
periments, the professor had not al
luded to the subject, though I purpose
ly allowed him to observe my employ
ment. Some days, however, ulier T
had reached the end of all the means of
investigation at my command and was
absorbed in what seemed a hopeless
attempt to deduce a conclusion, he came
to me while at work In the labora
tory. "Iiocior." , he said, placing his hand
familiarly upon my shoulder: "are
you minded to take part in a little ad
venture thut lies before me?"
"Willi the greutest of pleasure In the
world." I exclaimed.
"I will not conceal from yau." he con
tinued, seriously, "that there Is con
siderable clanger Involved."
'You are going to face It'.'" I qiliered.
He nodded.
"Then I see no reason why I should
not," I said, "unless you would Inti
mate that 1 possess less coiirngo than
yourself."
You see I was young and inclined
to he over-sensitive in those days.
Not ut all." he replied, kindly. "I
have been requested to undertake this
task under circumstances I Inn admit
of no honorable refusal. Otherwise, I
very much doubt--"
"And I." I Interrupted, "have been
placed in precisely the same position."
"Well, well." he said, "we will not
quarrel In the dark. It is only fair that
I should explain the situation. i'h"
fact is. I have been asked by the minis
try to go to Aneuil and investigate
this new epidemic- "
"Ami you dream for a moment that
I would hesitate to accompany you!"
1 exduinied.
"No," he said, and then, after a short
pause, "hut I am not sure whether 1
want you" v
"That is altogether a secondary con
sideration." I cried, galy. "Permit me
to announce that I am going. When do
we set out'.'"
Tomorrow morning." he replied, ub
seiitly. but at the same time grasping
my hand.
A few mnnicni later he left the
room, and I sat down to ponder over
the situation and to consider what 1
should need to take with me.
The town of Artetiil was one of those
places which had shot up within the
last decade. Situated in the midst of
a large manufacturing district, it
formed a sort of .oasis in t lie desert of
hideous factories and toil-sodden liu
inanity. The countiy round about was

self lay among a llllh nest of hills
which afforded fresh cool air und a
prospect ut once Httiactlve aiid salu
brious. It had been selected, therefore,
hy several of the large mill owners for
their summer homes. These hud lieen
followed by others, until the place now
contained a large number of magnifi
cent residences surrounded by well laid
out parks.
Such a population, of course, attract
ed the usual quota of tradesmen, me
chanics, and so forth, and an active und
nourishing town had resulted from the
desire of a few manufacturing mag
nates to have their pleasures some
where near their business interests.
It was scarcely u month since this
charming soot hud given birth to an
epidemic which bade fair to more than
decimate its Hipulatlon. unci which hud
utterly battled local and cxtra-locui
professional skill. Xo one seemed to
know how It bad originated, and, worse
yd, no one had found any method of
tight lug it that promised, much less ac
complished, the most modest success.
This was the situation when, on the
morning following our conversation.
Prof. Founder und myself took our
seats in the comparimeiit wiildi had
been especially reserved for our use,
uud saw Paris drop behind us. as the
tiulii rattled out Into the country.
For a w hile we sa in silence, whic h
he was til st to break.
"Have you followed especially the ac
counts of this Arteull epidemic'.'" he
asked.
"tiosely," I said, bowing.
"Have you noticed the curious fea
tures connected with it?"
"1 hardly know what you refer to,"
I replied, impressed by the seriousness
of his manner. "It la. of course, most
remarkable In this epoch thut a disease
unknown to the faculty should sudden
ly break out und rage within such cir
cumscribed limits."
"Ah! you are approaching the point
1 wish to make," lie said, eagerly.
"Have you not observed something
very remarkable ubout those limits?"
I slopped und thought for a moment.
Then I seemed to c anii his idea.
"Why. yes," 1 said, "now that you
speak of it. it is remarkable that the
disease has seized upon and conllnod
itself to whut should be the most
healthy town in the entire province.
It must come from sonic thing in the
water supply," I added, with sudden
conviction..
"You follow me in part." he con
tinued, "but If you had considered the
reports a little more closely you would
not have drawn your last conclusion.
You would have noticed that not only
was the disease coutilied to the health
iest town, but thai It was practically
contlned to what ought to be the
healthiest portion of the town. Look
at the list of deaths. It Is not B .
the draper; J , the butcher, and
I , the plumber. It Is M. de I, ,
owner of the chemical works at C .
It is Mile. G . only daughter of M.
G , getierul manager of the P
print mills, or Mine. l nud M. .lules
II , wife und youngest son of the
Junior partner of V I . the
great silk mnufucturers. Will you give
me any rational explanation of this
phenomenon'.'"
"I shook my head, deeply puzzled by
the proposition.
"Furthermore." he continued.' "are
you positive thut the disease is new?"
"Certainly not," I hastened to say.
"I cannot for a moment presume It
to be. I merely said that it had not
heretofore been diagnosed by the fac
ulty." "Do you recall those cases at Mont re
vault two years ago?" he asked.
With something of an effort I re
membered the three or four cases he
referred to and that their described
symptoms had closely resembled those
of the disease now ravaging Arteuil.
1 called his attention, however, to the
fact that the Montrevault cases had
not been seen by any but second-rate
country practitioners.
"Do you include your . classmate
Toedt in that category?" he asked
smiling faintly.
"I confess I had forgotten that
Toedt was at Montrevault," I said,
"lie Is ut Arteuil, too. Is he not, light
ing the disease there?"
Prof, Founder inclined his head.
"He is a brave fellow," 1 continued,
"and his experience, under the cir
cumstances, must be invaluable."
"He does not succeed, thonrii. uny
better than anyone else," remarked
Fournlcr. "It's a curious thing, too,"
he added, half to himself, "that ull the
victims at Montrevault were members
of the family of Count de G . the
late minister of war. This epidemic
Is certainly an uiistoctatlc complaint,
like gout."
lie relapsed Into silence with these
wards, and. as they hud given me much
food for reflection. I did not try to re
new the conversation. llulf an hour
later, he broke sudde nly In upon my
thoughts with a remark to tin effect
that lubor troubles seemed to have de
cidedly increased since the death of
Ciiunr de G and the cessation of
his stern repressive measures.
As he spoke, u sudden light seemed
to flash through my brain; a thought
too dreadful to be even put Into words.

For several days past the tratlic
managers of the transcontinental lines
have been discussing arrangements for
the reorganization of the Trans-Contln-entul
association, and it Is stated much
progress has been made. The new as
sociation will probably go Into opera
tion April 1. and every line will con
tinue a member until Jan. I. lS'.'T. when
they may withdraw on giving ninety
days' notice. By the new agreement
the old subsidy of )J72,."ioo a month will
be restored to the Pacific Mail Steam
ship company, for which the Pacific
Mull company wiil give up to the rail
roads room for t'KHi tons of freight con
signed to New Yolk on each shl: It
.sends out from San Francisco. The
Panama Itailroad company will receive
per cent, of the subsidy and the Pa
li He Mull company the remaining 4r. per
cent. The companies lepnsented in
the conferences are the Southern Pa
ctlle, the Atchison, the I'ldon Pacitte
the Greul Northern, the Panama and
the Canadian Paeitlc ruilroad compa
nies. The committee of the New York Pro
duce exchange has been notilicd by the
board of managers of the Joint Tratlic
association thut it has postponed the
hearing on the discrimination against
New York freight rates to March i'S.
Tin association needs the extra time to
secure all fads possible from the South
ern roads. In w hose favor two and three
cent differentials exist, and to dis
cover how far these eliferentlals could
be reduced without bringing on serious
internal dissensions.
