CHAPTER VIII.—(Continued).
"Dull! Anything concerning you
Capt.. Winstanley was forgetting, in
his eagerness, how near were other
people's seats. Ursula, her eyes on
her program moved her head a little,
and felt a kind of fascination draw
them up to a chair Just behind' him.
ti'M A gentleman sat there—a man
young and handsome, and not particu
larly remarkable among other men of
his age and station, except for a
strangely foreign suggestion in his
cast of face. His dark eyes were cu
riously brilliant and had a quick
glance in them that was like some ani
mal, she could not quite have said
what. But a thought of ferrets and
foxes crossed her mind instinctively
as she met their gaze. He was dark
of complexion—that warm, thick, olive
skin which speaks of the South. Span
ish, or Italian, or Maltese, she told her
self, but he was dressed like an Eng
lishman. Even as she raised her eyes
and caught his eager, rapt look, she
knew that it was not fixed on her, but
mi the man beside her. He was watch
ing him with the absorption and fixity
with which a cat watches a mouse.
He was bent a little forward, his
head thrust out, his ear turned. If he
had not had the appearance of a gen
tleman Ursula would have felt certain
he was trying to overhear what they
said. But no one could be guilty of
such a thing intentionally. The mere
suggestion sent a shock through her—
it was so impossible, so outrageous.
Yet, even as she repelled It, she un
consciously gave a slight jerk to her
shoulder. The man behind her start
ed, as if he had had his absorption
broken into, and drew hastily back.
She caught another furtive gleam from
the long, almond eyes, but this time it
was one of cunning, of suspicion. Did
he think she was watching him in her
turn? The idea seemed preposterous,
yet he had drawn back as if thai were
his thought
The band had begun playing a sym
phony of Tschaikovsky's, and voices
were once more hushed. Ursula leant
back and gave herself to listening, but
this time it was with a disturbed mind.
In spite of herself that foolish little
episode troubled and puzzled her. Why
had the man in their rear been con
centrating such eagerness of attention
on Capt Winstanley? Why had he
been trying to overhear what could
not have had the very faintest interest
la the world for htm?
There was a mysterious Secrecy
about the matter that made her feel
uncomfortable. Surely even vulgar
curiosity—and one did not expect an
exhibition of such a thing from a man
who was evidently educated and well
bred—snrely that could not account for
It It left her vaguely uneasy. He
might have known the A. D. C. by
sight and repute and been interested
in him, but that, would not cover the
case. What did he expect to hear
when he listened, with every nerve of
his body stretched to the stretch of
expectation?
She looked round again presently,
not because she wanted to look, but
because she could not refrain. But the
chair was vacant. He must have slip
ped put quietly during the symphony,
and it was with a foolish sense of re
left that she sa whe was gone.
By-and-by, when the concert was
over, they all trooped upstairs for tea
1q the upper corridor. Suddenly again
Ursula was aware of him, this time
standing At a little distance and ap
parently watching the scramble for
tea with unconcern. He -was appar
ently watching, but she could have de
clared his eyes had turned away as
ahe glanced his way. She took tho
cup of tea Winstanley brought her
and spoke so that only he could hear.
"Can you tell me who that man is-
that dark man who looks like a for
eigner?" He followed the direction of
her look.
"That? A certain count or baron, I
believe Taxona, I think they call him
—I won't be sure. 1 saw him at the
club the other evening. He's staying
here at one of the hotels, I believe. A
Spaniard or a Portuguese, by the look
ot him. Shouldn't you say so?"

Does anyone know the back streets
of Port sea? If not, he has not yet
fathomed the meaning of the words
"depression"' and "ugliness." Behiiri
the great church of St.. Mary's, King
ston, the demon builder, who is mostly
his own architect, seetns to have vied
with his fellow in monumental lildeous
ness. Street after street, stretches so
like its neighbor that only the names
at the corners serve to guide the be
wildered wayfarer. And in every
street row after row of fiat-faced,
squalid, indistinguishable dwellings
are only rendered different from one
another by the variety of the recepta
cle for refuse that sits before the door,
on the pavement's edge. There is an
infinite ingenuity in these receptacles,
these tanks of the ash and the cabbage
leaf. Sometimes it is an orange or a
candle box sometimes a tin battered
out of all semblance to any utensil
sometimes a basket, breaking apart
with its ugly weight.
One wonders how the inhabitants
would find their way to their cr."
abode if those ash-bins were whisk
away by a, whirlwind some day. Tney
would be found wandering up and
down, seeking in vain to read an iden
tification in the paint-denuded doors,
or the coarse lace curtains discreetly
draped across the window panes.
Along one of these avenues of mo
notony there ciept a furtive shadow
now and again on this night of rain
and damp. There was an odd similar
ity in the manner of the shadows, had
one noticed it they lurked and they
vanished into dusky doorways, and
flattened themselves against the wall
when a footstep sounded through the
fog and the dampness. It was not un
til the footstep passed that they ven
tured out again. When the street was
vacant they hurried on with stealthy,
secretive hurryings. The very jerki
ness of their progress was noticeable
had there been any one to attract.
And there was one more point
similarity in all of them. They lial"'?
before a house that had no light in its
windows or in the narrow slit of glass
above the door. They made no mis
tuke where a mistake of destination
would have been so excusable they
crouched low before the door and
struck the panel softly three times.
At the third stroke the door Was open
ed a crack as if on a chain inside. A
challenge was given the man outside
made low and whispered answer then
the door opened a trifle wider and
they glided round Its edge and slip
ped Inside. There was a stealth as
well as mystery about the whole pro
ceeding that made one fancy oneself
in medieval Italy or a country over
riden by the Inquisition.
There was no light In the front win
dows or in the narrow, stuffy passage,
but In a room at the back, looking into
a tiny court ,a lamp shone. The win
dow was shuttered and a heavy cur
tain hung before the shutters, as if to
hide every ray of light from every eye
without. In this small room, con
fined and meager and narrow, a band
of ,men was gathered, augmented con
stantly by the new and stealthy ar
rivals from the street outside. They
entered silently and cautiously, ush
ered In by the unseen man who open
ed the door to them. Each, as he came
Into the circle of light from the ill
smelling lamp on the table, saluted in
silence one who sat at the top of the
room in an arm chair, and had the air
of being the president.
He was a large man with a curious
ly big head, over which he wore a hat
slouched down in a manner which was
affected by them all. No one doffed
this covering as he saluted and sat
down, and the effect of an assemblage
ot men wearing their hats in a small
room was oddly sinister and grotesque.
He was hardly to be recognized if any
of them saw him again, there was so
little of his face seen now—only a
pair of dark, piercing eyes of unusual
power which shone from' the shadow
cast by his large hat brim and had a
commanding authority. It was strange
that even that faint glimpse of him
left on one the impression that he was
a man to exercise authority and en
force it An air of deference marked
the manner of the others towards him,
and they addressed him as Signor X—.
-'-Silcace and air air Of waiting reigned
in the tiny, room. The man just count
ed the numbers of the arrivals as they
filed in, and noted theiii down on a pa
per he held. When the last closed the
door behind him he raised his hand
with a quick gesture. The man sitting
nearest rose and rapidly but silently
barred and locked it, and resumed his
seat. The meeting had opened, and
no one who had been permitted to cast
a glance through the shuttered win
dow would have failed to put it down
as one of a strange character.
The man they called Signor X— tap
ped Xhrlce on the table before him. If
it was a cull for silence it was unnetj
essary, for the? were all mute and
waiting. He said something in a
Strange tongue—a few muttered words
like an tacantatiou—to which they all
bowed their heads reverently and mut
tered a response. It'might have been
a grace before meat from the manner
of It. But there was no giving of
thanksln any ot their looks.
Thpre was another Instant of silence
and then Signor X— spoke. His voice
yrmI •markable—distinct, yet so low
mm
11
that it scarcely carried to the door.
Every member present could catch ev
ery syllable yet an ear at the keyhole
would have found Itself baffled. The
circle of men appeared well used to it.
They bent their heads and turned one
ear in an attitude of deep attention.
This also, to the eye of a beholder,
would have had an effect singular and
important. Signor X— spoke on.
"To most of those present," he said,
"it is needless again to go over cer
tain facts with which they are famil
iar, but there are some few present to
night who have but just come to this
place, and to whom the object of our
meeting to-night has yet to be dis
closed. For their instruction I will re
capitulate the facts I have alluded to.
It will take but a brief allotment of
our time."
There was a stir of asseitt, a voice
less encouragement to continue, which
lie acknowledged by a mere movement
of his head. One of the. last arrivals
threw his hat slightly back from his
forehead to allow him to see more
clearly across the room.
"Whether new arrivals or old," con
tinued the president, "we are all aware
of one vital thing. We have learnt
that an explosive has recently been in
vented of such power and influence
that it will affect the universe. It is
vital to us as a society that the secret
of this tremendous force should be
come our own. We cannot afford to
U-t it pass us. Were it ours alone the
world would crouch before us, we
should have an undisputed dominion
but, unfortunately, it is too late for us
to hope for a monopoly. Could we
have obtained such information as we
have now some few months earlier we
might have found ourselves the sole
masters of the secret. That was not
to be, but there is still work enough
before us, for we are determined that
we shall share the power with the na
tion that would keep it for its own.
The government of this country is
about to take the power into its own
hands and use it for its own purposes.
We intend to make it our own as
well.
"To achieve this it. is needful, I need
hardly say, that we should possess
ourselves of it without delay. Every
day that it remains unpossessed by us
adds to the difficulty of our getting it
into our hands. The state is even now
experimenting and testing, and only
waiting to be satisfied before it ac
cepts the invitation which is to revo
lutionize modern warfare. Once it de
termines to take it, there will be far
greater difficulties in approaching It
The secret will be guarded like the
tree of the Hesperldes. But as yet
there is a way which will before long
be barred. The owner of the secret is,
as we all know, somewhere in this
place. He still has duplicate papers
of the invention, which, he will even
tually be called upon to destroy, or to
hand over to the custody of this coun
try. While those papers are here we
have still our chance."
Another faint stir ran through the
room. It. was like the rustle of driisd
leaves upon a dried forest bough. Sig
nor X— held up his hand, for he had
not done speaking. There was silence,
Instant, complete, again.
"To obtain possession of these docu
ments, then, must be our most earnest
endeavor, and we must be speedy and
swift. We have already been able to
do good work—work which I have this
evening to report to you—but it is only
the first step. We have ascertained
without doubt that the papers are still
here—at the House of Government, so
called—and we have located them in
the strong room of the commandant.
But there our serach for them has
been checked for the present. We
have attempted several methods, of
which I will briefly give a sketch."
He paused to refer to the cipher in
his hand.

Frogs' Foam nests.
A naturalist has just discovered in
the Bugomo forest of Lake Albert,
Arfica, a frog's nest made of a spittle
like froth and attached to the back of
some leaves overhanging a small
stream. He took the precaution of
photographing his find before placing
it in alcohol, and as soon as this was
done the mass collapsed, revealing,
however, a wriggling mass of tadpoles
about one-third of an Inch in length.
Foam nests of this kind, the scientists
say,- are made by certain frogs in Jap
an, as well as by some South Ameri
can species. Some fishes also make
foam nests, of which the paradise fish
is a conspicuous example.

THE WHITE PAINT OF THE
WHITE HOUSE.
The White House at Washington,
which has been the "King's Palace"
of the American "people since it was
first occupied by President Madison
in 1809, has recently undergone a
thorough course of remodeling, reno
vation and repair. Every American
citizen is owner of an undivided
eighty or eighty-five millionth part of
the White House, as well as of the
other Public Buildings and laments
in the Capitol City. An item in tho
renovation of the remodeled While
House was repainting. Every visitor
to Washington knows wh/ the White
House is so called—because it is lit
erally a "while house." The exterioi
paint must therefore be white. Now
while the pure vliite surfaces and sim
pie lines of the White House, set in
1 lie midst of green lawns and beauti
ful trees, produce, a very satisfying
effect, of disrnified simplicity, white
pnin! from a practical point of view
is about the most unsatisfactory kind
of paint that could have been selected
by the original designers. First, be
cause any white paint is easily dis
colored by smoke and dust, and sec
ond. because ordinary white pain:
itself gradually turns gray or brown
ish yellow from exposure.
But white the White House is and
white it must remain or it would no
longer be the "White House." So the
renovators, making the best of a dis
couraging situation, sought for the
best kind of white paint procurable.
The average citizen if asked to guess
what kind of paint they finally decided
on would probably answer—"white
lead and oil," but he would guess
wrongly. The -.aint selected as the
best obtainable was a ready mixed
paint, such as can be bought in any
well furnished village store, such as
is used by more than half of the
eighty or eighty-five million owners
of the White House on their own
homes. That one brand
lof
mixed
paint was used instead of another is
a mere accidental detail—there are
fifty or a hundred brands on the
market that might have been selected
in other circumstances, and in fact,
a different brand was used in paint
ing the Capitol.
Every property owner, therefore,
wlio paints his house with a high
grade ready-mixed paint is following
the example set by the Government
Authorities at Washington, who used
ready-mixed paint, because they could
find nothing else as good.

A Close Shave.
A little girl asked her mother if

"Mamma," she said, "I never saw a
picture of a nangel with a beard or a

"Oh, yes," replied her mother, "men
go to heaven, but it's always by a close
shave."
WILL FIGHT BIG OIL OCTOPUS.
Independents Prepare to Invade
North Dakota.
The threatened invasion of this ter
ritory by the Independent oil compa
nies is causing much discussion. The
unpopularity of the Rockefeller out
put and the reduced rates granted by
the railroads on shipments in less
than carload lots is thought to make
this field a desirable one for the men
anxious to buck the big octopus. Rep
resentatives of three independent con

to have secured a site and sidetrack
privileges from the Great Northern.
REPAIRING BRAIN.
A Certain Way by Food.
Every minister, lawyer, journalist,
physician, author or business man is
forced under pressure of modern con
ditions to the active ana sometimes
overactive use of the brain.
Analysis of the excreta thrown out
by the pores shows that brain work
breaks down the phosphate of potash,
separating it from its heavier compan
ion, albumen, and plain common sense
teaches that this elemental principle
must be Introduced into th& body anew
each day, if we would replace the loss
and rebuild the* brain .tissue.
We know that the phosphate of
potash, as presented in certain field
grains, has an affinity for albumen and
that is the only way grjay matter in the
brain can be built. It will not answer
to take the crude phosphate of potash
of the drug shop, for nature rejects it.
The elementary -mineral must be pre
sented through food directly from na
ture's laboratory. '*5^
These facts have been ma^: use of
in the manufacture ot Grape-Nuts, and
any brain worker can prove the valtte
of the proper selection of food by mak
ing- free use of Grape-Nuts for ten days
or two weeks. Sold by grocers every
where (and in Immense quantities).

SOME MODERN BUCCANEERS
Scheme for Revolution in Panama
That Was a Purely Business
Enterprise.
I happen to know of two Americans
of position who had inside Information
of the conditions in Panama, and who
&at in a room in the New Willard in
Washington, one night in the fall of
1903, consummating plans for putting
through the revolution, obtaining a
charter from the new republic, and
forming a company of capitalists,
writes Capt. Lloyd Buchanan, in Lipp
incott's Magazine. Mr. Pierpont Mor
gan was to be asked to organize the
company. The total cost of the revo
lution was to be under $150,000, and
all the equipment needed in addition
to what the junta could supply was
a pair of moderately fast small steam
ers, chartered, four six-inch guns,
with ammunition, and 50 Krag rifles.
The steamers and weapons were to be
handled by Americans and English
men who had no special calling on
earth. I have every reason to be
lieve that, if Mr. Roosevelt had failed
to act as he did, and any private con
cern had taken up the construction of
the canal, a revolution would have
gone off with an accuracy and style
that has never been surpassed. But,
unfortunately for art, Mr. Roosevelt
did act.
South America, Mexico and the
West Indies are threaded everywhere
by the trails of these adventurers of
life. In Curacoa you can find hatch
ing any sort of scheme you choose—
from a plan to smuggle a couple of
bolts of silk and a case of champagne
Into Venezuela, to a plot to overthrow
a republic and putting a new dictator
in its capital. I met there in the same
day a ruined American gambler, beg
ging his passage back to the states,
and the sons of Guzman Blanco, the
banished ex-president of Venezuela.
The former stopped me opposite a
Dutch cigar store and told me with
the most pointed frankness what he
wanted, but the latter, over their ciga
rettes and long iced glasses, mourned
evasively of exile and confiscated es
tates in general. It is, then, not for
me to say why they were frizzling on
that sun-baked islet within 50 miles
of the Venezuelan coast, when they
might as well have been in the dear
Paris that they know and love so well.
But probably they knew—and Castro.
I think I did, too.
HONOLULU POULTRY EXPERT
Claims to Be Able to Predetermine
the Sex and Fertility of
an Egg.
C. W. Weatherwax, a
(chicken
fan­
cier of Honolulu, claims he has discov
ered a process whereby he can tell the
sex of an egg and whether it will be
fertile or not. Weatherwax has been
experimenting with eggs since 1894 and
is now in a position to give the results
of his investigations to the world. He
has used thousands of eggs in his ex
periments and kept two 50-egg incu
bators going all the time.
He claims to be able to tell whether
the produce of an egg will be a roos
ter or a ben, and if the chick has a
fair chance to reach maturity.
"I am willing to make a public test
With 100 eggs," said Weatherwax, "in
order to prove my assertions. The
eggs may be marked according to my
prediction with an indelible pencil be
fore being put in the incubator. In
nine cases out of ten it will be found
that I am right."
Mr. Weatherwax claims that he is
the first white man to possess this re
markable knowledge. Poultry papers
are unanimous in declaring that there
is no way of telling a fertile egg be
fore putting it in the incubator. They
maintain that even if the egg be
broken, the germ cannot be seen with
the naked eye.
Weatherwax undertakes to teach the
whole thing in five minutes. He de
clares that no mechanical devices or
chemicals are used.
AWFUL DISEASE ON GUAM.
Gangrosa, Which Destroys Upper Part
of Victim's Pace, Worse Than
Leprosy.
Gangrosa, a tropical disease more re
pulsive than leproSy, has become so
prevalent on the island of Guam that
Lieut. McNamee, U. S. N., acting gov
ernor of the island, has recommended
the establishment of a hospital for the
Isolation of the disease, which is be
lieved to be highly contagious. Ad
miral Rixey, surgeon general of the
navy, has approved the recommenda
tion and it is probable that a |5,00C
hospital will be erected immediately
near the leper hospital on the Island.
Lieut. McNamee says the disease de
stroys the upper part of the face by
slow ulceration and Is more horrible,
both to the victim and to his compan
ions, than leprosy. As 400 cases have
developed its isolation is imperative.
Naval surgeons have Investigated the
disease in parts of South America and
the West Indies, and their reports in
dicate that there can be little doubt
that it is a distinct malady, and one
which does not yield to the treatment
given tuberculosis, leprosy and othei
diseases common to tropical countries.
Cases of gangrosa have been treated In
New York which are believed to. have
come from Brazil and Panama.
