I Got Even J I With a Girl Who Refused Y Hitn ’ 6 ! O By SUSAN YCtUNG PORTER 0 ) Y Copyright, 1910. by American Pr«»s T I O Association. 9 * “Your action toward me throughout 1 this affair has been dishonorable," said • Shotwell. “1 see no occasion for you to make any such charge. You proposed to me, and I asked tor time in which to make a decision. Meanwhile 1 was studying ) you. Had you not accused me of j treating yon dishonorably I should not have given you the result of my observations. As It Is. I will say that 1 have discovered traits In your charac- . ter that Ido not fancy." “This Is simply an invention to cover your duplicity. You know very well ! that you encouraged me, then threw me overboard,” With that he withdrew, Inwardly vowing revenge. The girl, Instead of i considering a man who would take the position he had taken contemptible, ’ was crushed at his charge, weeping . hot, bitter tears. Shotwell was suffering from what he considered unfair treatment and In > I no mood to look at the matter dlspas- . slonately. Had he done so he would , have recognized the fact that no contract had been made between them. Miss Gwynne had not accepted him, and even If she bad and afterward dismissed him he should have remem1 bered that it Is a woman's privilege to change her mind. But in this partic- > ular case the lady had refused him for ’ reason. Beyond all this no man should take revenge on a woman for refusing him, whether for or without cause. The rejected lover’s path led across a district of the city where the lowest part of the community lived, or, rather, existed, for in such crowded tenements ns are occupied by the poorer classes people cannot be said to live. Coming toward him he saw a man whose face and bearing belied his tom and dirty clothing. “That fellow resembles Belding, the multimillionaire, for all the world," mused Shotwell. Then, suddenly Vaught by an idea, he turned and called: “Hi! You there!” The man faced about. Shotwell beckoned to him, and the two stood together on the sidewalk, when Shotwell began a series of questions. "Have you ever been told you look like any one?” “Not that I remember.” “Want a job?" "What kind of a job?” "Well, there’s a bit of personation In it." “What do you mean by that?” “I know a young lady who I think wouldn’t mind marrying a fortune. You very much resemble Howard Belding, the millionaire. How would you Si to try it?” TTte man looked Shotwell square in the fSce, but Shotwell could not tell how his-wroposition was received. For a moment'll? thought he saw a flash of the first remark that came from the* ragged man reassured him. \ “I couldn’t play w game like that in these rags.” \ “I’ll dress you up like a gentleman.” “But how would l\ass myself off for one with such ignorance as mine?” “Oh. you’ve seen better days! I can tell that. Something has'broken you down. What was it—liquor?” "No; I don't drink.” “Well, do you accept?” The man appeared to be thinking. Presently be asked: “What is there in it if I don’t succeed in marrying the girl?” “I’ll give yon SSOO, besides what you need for spending money.” “All right When shall I begin?” Shotwell gave him an address at which he was to call at a certain Lour the next day. When he appeared Shotwell had a wardrobe ready for hlin, and when properly dressed he certainly looked like a refined and intelligent man. Shotwell told him that Howard Belding, whom he was to personate, had inherited an estate of several million dollars, which he was giving to charity. Having touched bls man, Shotwell sent him away to form the acquaintance of Miss Gwynne. He instructed his decoy so far as possible as to the lady's idiosyncrasies, recommending him not to go too fast with her, and that he might not want for funds he instructed him to draw on his employer for reasonable amounts. The decoy was to report regularly through the mail. Shotwell waited In vain for a report. A week passed, and he became impatient; two weeks, and he began to think he had been duped. The man had doubtless taken the good clothes and the money furnished him and decamped. But why no drafts came Shotwell could not Imagine. Unfortunately for Shotwell, he had broken with Miss Gwynne and therefore had no occasion to visit her. He knew several of her intimate friends and would have asked them if she were receiving attentions from any one, but he was himself known to have been attentive to Miss Gwynne, and ' any such questions from him would 'of course be impertinent. He went ' | so far as to hang about the Gwynne 1 domicile at hours when a visitor might I be expected to call, but discovered 1 nothing. He listened to all the gossip
he hoard, hoping he might hear something pertaining to the case. He was disappointed in all his attempts to learn If the man he had employed to do his work was doing it. Finally be made up his mind that If a mnn resembling Mr. Howard Belding were paying marked attention to Miss Gwynne It would he known and | he (Shotwell) would certainly hear of It, There was but one inference —the man had either gone off without even an attempt to make Miss Gwynne’s acquaintance or he had betrayed his employer with a view to making capital with the young lady. Either of these propositions was sufficient to throw Shotwell Into a fever. He fretted and worried and pried till nt last he could stand the strain no longer and concluded to get away from it by making a trip abroad. He enme to this conclusion not only because he wished to get the matter off his mind, but because, having ' somewhat cooled, he felt that he had risked the respect of all good men and women who knew him. If the matter should be known he would rather be where he could not be called upon to face it Perhaps by the time he returned, if any trouble came of it. it would linve blown over. These considerations, however, did not seem to him of great importance, for he had little doubt that the fellow he bad hired to personate Belding bad simply pocketed the perquisites and left ths job to take care of itself. Three months after Shotwell had laid his plan for revenue upon Miss Gwynne he went to Europe, There after a time the matter he had come away to get rid of ceased to occupy the greater part of his attention, and eventually he thanked heaven that the man he had employed to revenge him had gone off without doing so. He was feeling much relieved when In Venice he met an acquaintance from America, who said to him, among other things: “I hear your old flame, Virginia Gwynne, is to marry the rich young philanthropist Howard Belding.” Shotwell was astonished, terror stricken, that so long after he had repented of his meanness the damage had yet been done. He questioned his Informer as to when the wedding was expected to come off, but received no satisfaction. One desire now took possession of ' Shotwell—to reach America before Virginia Gwynne should full irrevoca- ; bly into the trap he himself had laid , for her. Making for Genoa, he found a steamer about to sail for New York. For two weeks be paced the deck, looking out on the same watery waste trying to stifle his impatience. They , were the longest two weeks he had • ever known. But at. last the voyage was ended, and he hastened ashore, his first object being to learn if Miss . Gwynne had married. The wedding had not yet taken place. ' Shotwell wrote his former love a I note telling her that he had something , of great importance to her welfare to . communicate to her and asking for an Interview. He received a brief reply ( appointing the next afternoon at 5 ( o’clock at her house. The clock was striking the hour when he mounted 1 the steps leading up to her home and j rang the bell. He was al! of a tremor when he entered the drawing room, j where he bad had many happy tete-a- ‘ tetes with Miss Gwynne and where ( he had parted with her in anger. Presently she came in and stood with , her hand resting on the back of a chair. He rose and stammered: “Thank heaven lam not too late.” ( “For what?” “To save you from marrying a man whom you suppose to be a gentleman, 1 but who is really”— : “Heavens!” “I am here to make a confession. On the day I left you I felt much aggrieved. I did that which, I admit, was unworthy of me. Seeing a man in rags , who was the perfect image of Howard Belding, I persuaded him to personate that person to win your heart. But I never intended that the matter should ' go so far. And, not hearing from my man, in my cooler moments I congratulated myself that he had disappeared without taking any action.” Miss Gwynne stood for a moment as if trying to recover from the blow; then with one word, “Walt!” she left the room. In a moment Shotwell hekird the ring of a telephone bell. He rerpalned where he was for some minuteiL when the front door opened and Miss Gwynne entered with her fiance. “We’ve met again.” said the man who bad (time in to Shotwell. “What have you tb say against me?” Shotwell was astonished at the man’s assurance. “Yod know what you are and of the bargain I made with you,” said Shotwell. “I know of the bargain most assuredly. As to myself, I am Howard Belding. When you met me that day I was endeavoring incog, to find out the needs of the poor. I was succorI Ing. I could best do this in the costume of that region—rags. I have to thank you for being the means of my winning a lovely girl. I have never told her till now of her own escape by making known your contemptible conduct. Will you oblige me by vacating these premises?” Shotwell stood for a moment looking at the mart, wondering if there could be truth In/his assertion. “Prove vfhat you say,” he said presently. ; The turned to his affianced. "Do you require proof?” he asked. “Proof? iNo. If that man said you were Mr. jßeldlng 1 would require proof that, 'ou were what he said you were.” “Then, sit, I see no reason for you to interest yourself further in our as- | fairs.” Shotwell/ cowering, left them.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••J i How I Got : j My Start j • Story of a Man Who Made J • a Little Fortune In • One Nlflhi. • ! By REGINALD D. HAVEN. • • Copyright, 1910, by American Press • • Association. I was working for small wages for a safe and lock'Compuny. My work was mending locks that had got out of order and doing other odd jobs that required some knowledge of the business. I was anxious to get my affairs in shape to marry iqy present wife, but didn't see much prospect. The concern I was with kept me tinkering all the while, and when it wanted a wan to start a branch office or something like that it would choose one of the clerks In the office. ’ I had gone home one evening and had my supper when there was a ring at the doorbell and a boy handed me a note. It was written on a letter beud of a big manufacturing firm and eald that Mr. Yartfngton, treisuFer of the company 1 worked for, had recommended me for a special job and asked that I come around to the office as soon as convenient. Catching up my tool bag, which I had brought home with me, 1 went with the boy to the office of the manufacturing company, pleased with the prospect of making a tenner, and found tbers a tall, handsomely dressed man, with gray hair and mutton chop whiskers, and two or three clerks sitting on stools working over ponderous books. “Can you open that safe?” asked the man with the gray whiskers. “We've got a lot of work to do here this evening, and our cashier, who knows the combination, went out.'of town this afternoon.” \ I looked at the name of the maker in gold letters on the safe, made my observations and told the gentleman that I didn't know any way to pick the lock without drilling a hole where I could get at the tumblers and that would involve considerable expense to put his safe in order again. "Never mind the expense,” he said Impatiently. “I’ve got to put in a bid tomorrow on a hundred thousand rifles for the army, on which I’ll make half a million. The specifications are all in there. I must get them out and go over them to see that they are right The slightest slip in any detail will throw out my bld. Come; get to work!" I plunged my hand Into my bag, got out my brace and bits, adjusted them and was soon at work. Now, as I worked it occurred to me that here was the opportunity of my life. If this gentleman was dependent for his half million ,on me to get him into the safe, why shouldn’t I have something more than a beggarly ten dollar bill? I saw that he was impatient and thought I might get ail offer to do the work within a given limit of time. “I’m afraid,” I said, “this is going to be an all night job.” “See here, young man,” said the gentleman, "is there anything you want especially that costs a lot more money than you’ve got?” “Yes, there is,” I replied. “I want a girl.” “Oh, I can’t give you a girl!” “I could get the girt quick enough if I had anything to marry on.” “H’m!” said the gentleman, biting at my hook. “I see. How soon can you guarantee to open the safe if it’s made worth your while to hurry?” “Three-quarters of an hour.” “Very well. If you’ll do it in that time I’ll give you $3,000. If you do it In thirty minutes I’ll make it $5,000.” “Give me a bit of writing for that,” I said. And without waiting for him to do so I began, to drill furiously, my racket making a terrible sound. “Mr. Perkins/’ said the gentleman to one 6f the clerks, '“take the typewriter and write to my dictation.” One of the clerks sat down at a typewriting machine and wrote out a contract to cover the agreement made with me. When it was finished the gentleman signed it and gave it to me. I wasn’t going to be fooled, so I stopped drilling and read it. “Write at the bottom of It,” I said, “the money to be paid before the said Thomas Jakeaway leaves this office.” He took the papea to his mahogany desk and wrote what I required, while I Went on drilling. “Do you have to make all that noise?” he snapped. "Can’t you put some oil or something on your drill? They’ll think outside there’s a burglary going on In here. If they come in to investigate I’d have to explain, and there’d be a lot of delay.” “The faster I work,” I said, "the more noise.” “Mr. Perkins, you go on typewriting. Never mind what you write. Make enough clatter to drown this boring.” “All right, sir.” And the young man began to pound the keys so hard that I thought he would break something. I was working like a beaver when the gentleman came and stood over me, watching me. Suddenly my brace slipped, and as I was pressing hard against it in a stooping position I lost | my balance and fell against him. i Something dropped at my feet I picked it up and felt the soft smoothness of wax. The gentleman matched it
from me. and without looking np at him I readjusted my brace and went to work again. It Is singular how quick the reasoning process will develop results In one’s brain. In less time than it takes to tell It I bud made a deduction. This “gentleman” whs a fake. He was made up to personate tbs head of the concern. He was wearing a wax nose. I had joggled him, nnd It had fallen off his face. Had I looked up I would have seen him with his own natural nose, but this would have betrayed the fact that I had got on to his scheme. He had purloined the letter head on which he had written me, and bls two clerks were confederates. I pretended to work all the faster after this incident, but in reality accomplished very little. I didn't dare lessen the pressure of my bn on the steel, for the diminution of noise would have betrayed me, but I bored to make the hole larger dnstead of deeper. 1 couldn’t see my man’s face, but he was evidently at least partly reassured. At any rate, he said nothing. And while I worked I thought. Here was I unwittingly participating In a burglary. All other considerations were lost in my horror of having to share the punishment that these men were likely to get in the end. My whole mind was at once bent on outwitting them. The moment they suspected that I had got on to their scheme I would be forced to continue my work at the muzzle of a revolver. What should 1 do? Anything I should do to attract attention without would fall Upon me as well as on the burglars. I saw but cue iskwiblfl way of defeating their purpose. That was to finish the drilling, get at the tumblers and put them so out of gear that to get them In order again would require taking out the whole apparatus. On this course I resolved. Having come to a decision, I was anxious to get through as soon as possible, fearing as much as they that we might be caught in the act. I therefore worked with all my vigor, the typewriter pouuding the while. My employer, seeing that I was doing my best, seemed to regain any confidence he might have lost by his mishap. “You’re all right, young man. You’re sure to win. Ten minutes yet to make your $5,000. I’ll do better. I’ll make it $10,000.” He didn't need to make it SIO,OOO to induce me to hurry. If any one should interrupt the proceedings I didn’t see how I would escape the penitentiary. So I worked as hard as I could, but in order to inspire confidence I purposely lost the SIO,OOO by two minutes. “That’s all right,” said the chief in response to my look of disappointment. “Two minutes don’t make any difference to a man who will make as much out of your work as I will. I’ll give you the whole amount Now open the door.” “The most Important work yet remains,” I replied. "These tumblers are complicated affairs. If I get them out of gear I'll lose this fortune and my girl too.” “Well, be careful,” he said anxiously. Meanwhile my brain had been as busy as my hands. I saw that more depended on my deceiving them than in throwing the lock out of gear. If I could persuade them to give up their job without my throwing the lock out of gear it might help me iu the story I would tell after all was over. I worked on for awhile, then let a piece of steel in the lock drop in Its place with a click. With an exclamation and an assumed look of horror I turned toward the men. “What is it?” cried the chief. “I’ve done it.” “What?” “I couldn’t open it now If you'd give me a million. I’ve lost! I’ve lost!” “I believe you're fooling,” said the man. He called the two “clerks” together for a consultation. I knew very well that they were discussing the feasibility of forcing me at the point of a pistol to go on. I also saw from their expressions that two of them believed my story and the third was doubtful. Finally the two convinced the third, and the chief, approaching me, said: “You've done the best you could, and I’m sorry you've lost your prize. If you’ll come around in the morning I’ll make you a handsome present. I can’t do it. now because all the money is in the safe. You can go now. Goodby.” I thanked him, picked up my bag and was about to leave when the man who had doubted by sincerity approached the chief excitedly and said: “You don’t mean to say you’re going to let him go out first and send cops in here after us.” From this point they threw off all idea of deceiving me. T|ie leader said to me: “You stay here for ten minutes. Ten minutes—do you hear? One of us will be waiting outside, and if you come before ten minutes you’re a dead man. See?" I feigned to be very much astonished and frightened and told them 1 would stay as long as they wished. Then they turned out the lights and went away. I knew their ten minutes for me to stay didn't mean anything, and ' after I was satisfied they were off I went out myself and in a drug store looked up the residence of the presii flent of the company. Then I went to | his house and told him the whole stoi ry, handing him my written promise of : so,ooo If I opened the safe within a , , given time. The next day he gave me i a check for the slo,ooo I had been ’ promised verbally. There was S2OO 000 ’ in the safe.
