Second St. General Brussiloff Was Little Known Outside of Russia Before War PetrogTad, Sept. 15.—Generay Alexis Brusslloff, commander of the Russian army which swept through Bukowina, was little known outside of Russia be fore the present war. In fact., it was not until 1914 that he was given com mand of an army corps. His work in the war won him promotions. He is almost the only one of the many prominent social figures in the army who has made good. General Brusslloff is 63 years old. but looks more like 45. He is alert and modern. He has dark, steady, searching eyes and nose with a high, commanding curved bridge,' and a square jaw. His hair is close cropped; he wears a long thin gray moustache. It was General Brussiloff who com manded an army in the first Carpa thian campaign when the Russians were ready to your down into Hungary but were forced to retreat for lack of ammunition. Vnlike many Russian generals, Brussiloff had the advan Does Your Husband Drink ?

By Clinton H Stagg Copyright, W. J. Watt & Co., International News Service. (Continued From Yesterday.) The blind man leaned back In the cushions, every tired muscle°f his aching body relaxed; his burn j"f eyes soothingly cooled by tho wind that rushed past them at cyclone speed. If Michael's work had been good before, it became wonderful now. The big car jumped .ahead, every wheel seeming o leave the ground lor feet at a time. Careening until there seemed no possibility of It ever staying upright, it took the first turn. The frightful Jolting told the blind man that they were on some little-used crossroad. Another turn, worse this time, into some bylane. As rough as a newly plowed field, this new course shook and rattled the big car till It seemed impossible or mechan ical endurance to stand It longer. For an hour, in, out, twisting, turning, through lanes, over crossroads, the Irishman drove the ear with the dar ing of his race and the instinct or direction that is in the make-up of all good automobile drivers. The bund man was in the air as often, and as long, as he was on the seat. Every part of him was a steady, sharp pain. But when he felt the smoothness of the main road under the tires they had lost the following car. Michael shouted the news. "Don't let up!" Colton shouted. He knew the bull-dog nature of the cap tain too well for any chance-taking. The blind man must have an oppor tunity to play hia third move alone. Alone! There was a certain grim humor in that word. The players in the game he was trying to solve had sought to cripple him by forcing him to work alone. Now all the resource fulness of his chauffeur had been needed to keep his lone hand when he needed it. From his pocket the blind man took a folded paper. He opened it, and his finger tips felt the roughness of papyrus. It was the first chance he had had to study this thing for which every one was looking; that had been stolen, then stolen again. In the speed ing car, Colton's fingers went over and over tho surface, feeling each line, visualising the whole, until it was as clearly !n his mind as it would have been before the eyes of a person who could see. The cryptogram! The million-dol lar cryptogram that had caused the murder of the strange old man who had believed BO utterly in his own solution of the one great secret. It had cost him his life; it had put into danger the lives of three others whom he loved; and it was in Colt'on's hands! He had stolen it. He had forced the hands of the guilty ones by holding the crow as bait. They had not sus pected that he held the cryptogram as well as the key. He had given them no chance to suspect that. Not even the girl knew! "That must be the house, sorr!" Michael's voice waked him from the study of the curious papyrus crypto gram. "Deserted, isn't it?" Colton asked. "All closed an' boarded, sorr." "Drive up to the front door." "L.ettin' thim know yer comin'?" gasped Michael, turning his head in surprise. "Not rpuch chance of a blind man crawling up through the shrubbery to discover whether or not any one's around," Colton remarked dryly. "I guess some one will see me." The big house, shuttered and board ed, was set far back from the road, completely hidden by giant pines. It was such a place as the solitude-loving Philip Bracken would have chosen, and it was Just the kind of place for any one who wanted to hide. "Take the car around back," or dered Colton, as he alighted under the porte-cochere. "You'll find the garage where the Fairfield was stor ed. Wait, but don't come near the house. Keep out of sight." "Yes, sorr." Michael obeyed with out even a dubious shake of his head. He knew the blind man. The problemist's lips pursed in a soft whistle, tho slim stick twirled idly In his long fingers, but in the idle swings there was method. Each move told the blind man where he was and where he was going. He stopped di rectly in front of the big door. His hand found the bell without a false movement. His keen ears caught the ring of it in the depths of the house. He waited. No answer. Another ring. There was no impatience. Thornley Colton Jabbed the button easily. A short ring. Silence again, except for the soft whistle. The pur sed lips straightened in a smile that flitted instantly. Soft footsteps had sounded at the other side of the door, and Colton continued his musical ef fort. The door opened silently, the blind man's cane followed its movement. "Good-morning!" Colton doffed his hat politely, and the whistling stopped only for the two words. There was no answer, no sound. But as the door had opened Colton had heard the swish of a skirt. He knew that before him stood the old woman of the res taurant Silver Sandals, the silent. He knew that she had determined to play her part as she had played It for twenty-five years the part that the police of New York had never made her betray. She was deaf and dumb because her will was steel. He was blind. .'|J n n t Colton * ot th word In between two bars of the one of the latest musical atrocities.

CHAPTER XVI The Cryptogram Thornley Colton lowered the thin cane that had been resting lightly against the open door, and entered, with a murmured apology for pass ing in front of the woman. The door closed silently behind him. The wo man did not move. He knew that she was staring at him with her strange eyes; for his highly attuned nerves could feel a stare more poig nantly 'than tho normal person feels one upon him when his back is turned. "I'm really blind," he assured smoothly. "But it's a curious an atomical truth that a person can't scowl in anger without a slight clench, ing of the finget-s. Tours were gripped on the door. My cane touched it. The slight movement told me. Simple, isn't it?" She turned her back to him and walked down the hall. The blind man's ears caught, the faint footfalls, and the sound of them told him that the woman still wore the silver san dals. He followed her slowly, turn ing when she turned. The woman made a gesture toward a chair. He bowed his thanks and seated himself. His slim cane had been touching her dress hem so lightly that she never even suspected it. She stood before him. Once more he could feel the eyes, and even in his blindness he was aware of the dominant, compelling will of the strange old creature. It was minutes before there was a movement or a word to break the strange tableau. The blind man in the chair of the big, room, in the great, empty house. The woman standing over him, trying to force his will to become her will, Just as she had forced others so many times. But Thornley Colton's lips smiled up at her, even the brown eyes behind the smoked glasses seem ed to twinkle with enjoyment of the unique situation. "In case you didn't hear before," he said, very quietly, "I'll assure you again that my eyes are perfectly use less. They can't even help you gain control of my mind. You see"—there was polite mockery in the words— "l have considered my lack of sight an asset for years. A valuable ally most of the time." She turned away, and her very foot falls told the angry bafflement that contorted her wrinkled facfe. He heard the rustle of a sheet of paper, the scratch of a pen. He held out his hand as she came toward htm, and took the paper. His fingers touched the back and he read the words: "X understand the lip language. I know what you have said." . "Quite remarkable." Colton was really impressed. "I consider that quite a feat," he went on, "because I was careful to form only every other word with my lips. What you 'saw' me say was: In you hear I'll you that eyes perfectly they even you control. A ally of timer And you got the sense of what I said from that? Quite re markable!" There was not even the queer throat sound of anger that Sydney Thames had heard when he stood before the woman on the steps of the old house in the Peck Slip section. There was not a movement to show that she had heard. She stood before him, her eyes on his face, waiting patiently. Then she took the paper he held out, and wrote again. With a slight smile he received the writing, and his Ang ers told him once more the words: "Why don't you answer?" Colton had not moved his lips at all! blind man realized that again he was pitted against the dogged will that characterized the strange family. Silver Sandals had fought against be trayal for a quarter of a century. She realised the handicap her silence put on the blind man, and she was play ing it to the limit. She could see every move he made; hear every word he said. He could depend only on his ears, and she was determined to make them useless. "I said," Colton enunciated the words with slow distinctness, "that your ability to see things that are not to be seen should be a valuable aid in deciphering the cryptogram that caused the murder of your brother." She snatched the paper from his hand to write: "What do you know about my brother's murder?" "So you know it was murder?" he asked accusingly. She took the paper again, and the trembling had ceased. The instant loss ofcontrol was over. "What do you know of the crypto gram?" she wrote. "I have It in my pocket"—he mov ed his hand upward, under his coat; he cotfld hear the sharp catch of her breath; he knew that she was leaning forward, hand outstretched—"where It will stay," he finished, and he held his hand over the pocket. "You do not need it," he added, with Just a touch of sarcasm. She reached for the paper to write. He held it away. *Tt is filled," he told her. Silver Sandals crossed the room to where she had gotten the other sheet. Her back was toward him. He spoke: "Eyes like yourtf do not need to see the cryptogram." There was not a move to tell that she had heard "I know it by heart. There is no need one seein r t!" His hand low ered; then came the soft ripping sound Jv ar,ns P a P er a fingers worked. The woman whirled on him In fury "Now we can talk!" he said simply. The tearing paper had betrayed her nto forgetting. It haa done what po lie© tricks had failed to do for years. She could not keep the pose now, for the blind man had made It impossible. "Only the unnecessary notes you in sisted on writing," he explained, hold ing out the scraps of paper so that •he could see. "The police methods have been crude. One can pretend to not hear a falling house, or any big noise. But slight, significant sound ' There was no need of com pleting the sentence. "Where did you get the crypto gram?" He heard her voice for the first time. It was husky with the husklness of dtsuse. It sounded deep in her throat, because years of "throw ing" it as a ventriloquist had chang ed its pitch. But behind It, despite the unnatural tone, was the strength that was behind the coal-black eyes that SEPTEMBER VS, 1916. glowed with the unquenchable fire of the will. "I stole It." There was no hesitancy in the blind man's confession. "Where is the crow?" "The same place it was when you let the girl go for Jt!" The blind man's voice was stern. "My nieco has been " The harsh tones quavered. She was a woman, after all. The year&i of her hard, un yielding life had only left a veneer of their passing. Underneath was the softness she had betrayed that minute In the restaurant when her lips had touched the forehead of her dead brother. "She Is not under arrest yet," Colton said. "She Is at my home." . "Let me have the cryptogram;" she demanded harshly. There was no hint of softness nor break now. "Is that more important than the girl?" The sudden change In the wo man made Colton's voice as hard as her own. "She needs that money now!" There was a sinister significance in the words that Colion detected at once. "Where Is Bracken?" he asked. "I don't know." "It was he who called her up and told her that I had the crow?" "No." "She thought It was?" He made the question a command. "I told her it was Philip," she answered. "I told her he wanted her to get the crow from your house. There would be a ruse to get you away." (To Be Continued.)
