L L At Close Quarters. , » “Jim,” said Henry Linden to Creel, a week after his last visit to the lawyer. “the agent says qre can move into the two rooms on Cossett’s floor in the Blanke Building tomorrow.” “That’s good,” replied Creel. “The smaller room is twelve by sixteen, the big one is sixteen. Have you fixed everything with the furni-, ture man?” “Everything is ready,” replied Creel. “Two flat-top desks, two office chairs, a railing with a gate, a chair for outside the railing, and our bookcase.” “Full of books?” laughed Linden. "Packed,” returned Creel. “We will put the stuff in the small room,” said Linden, "the big one Is on its right The door leading from the small to the big room opens away from you; it is four feet from the corridor wall, and is seven feet high, with t a width of thirty inches. Got that down?” “Thirty inch wide opening,” repeated Creel, writing. “Put the rail six inches from the farther side of the case, and that leaves you nearly nine feet inside the rail,-doesn’t it?” "Right you are,” said Creel. “Have both desks face the window,” continued Linden, “and we will be snug but comfortable. Give all that to the furniture man, for we can’t be seen there until Everything is ready. Now, for the case of books.” “Yes,” returned Creel, “that is the main thing. It is forty inches wide, six feet six inches high, and twelve inches deep.” aV; “Forty inches wide,” said Linden. “That means that it will cover the door opening and project ten inches or so toward the front of the office. And two feet deep. A case like that could topp\e over, couldn't it, Jim?” “Easily,” replied Creel, with a knowing smile. . ill “Then have two iron clamps for the side-casing it rests against, and one good clamp fastening the top to the upper part of the door-casing. Then it can neither fall nor be moved In a hurry,” and now it was Linden’s turn to smile. “I have boxed the books,” said Creel, and the furniture man will stop for the case. I will tell him how to clamp it when I see him tonight. The books will go down to the janitor later in the day.” “I think our friends at headquarters have begun to look after us again. They were very quiet for several days.” Linden rose from his seat as he said this and looked out of the window. “I think so, too,” said Creel, coming to his side. “There Is a man almost ‘'opposite, near that small swinging sign. See? I saw him yesterday and several times last week. He never looks up at the windows, but I notice he watches the door mighty well." “They are not so thick, the police,” said Linden reflectively. “They did all this on guesswork after Cossett said he had enemies. Of course, he gave them the Louig Delaine card. And that man you gave the letter to was certainly a sleuth. That joke is on you, Jim. He came after my writing and got yours to compare with the card. And you should have seen that card. You ought to be trembling this minute.” “That was bad work of yours. Linden,” said the other. “But there is a big hitch somewhere, anci I think old Cossett is back of it. If he does suspect us, you can be sure he won’t go too far before he is sure of something. “We know he was excited when he found your real writing differed from that In the letter you sent him. That showed he had compared the letter with the card. If he was really sure where he stood, why didn’t he tell Nellie about the thief’s writing, and then denounce both of ns to her? He mush have remembered my name and the crackerbox.” “That craqkerbox business was pretty slick,” chuckled Linden, “and using your real name after they had yon under arrest was the beet thing of ail. That pussies them, for if they had ever found you with another name you would he back of the bars now.” "If they knew just a little more, how would It be with you, Henry?” "Pretty bad, I sm afraid," replied Linden. “But there is one more chance for them. I would he willing to add another five hundred to Mr. Fenton's retainer if the?lent try wns
“When does it come of " said Cheek “Day after tomorrow, if possible. Can’t stand the strain much longer. Yah go down early and get all the keys; two for- each door, for each of %&• -It the, furniture man doesn’t finlas' tomorrofr— you can see him at night—don’t go nearj the place till the day after he has finished. I will see you here every morning. And hsrSure .to put the notice of the signpainter on the woodwork outside the small room door. Nothing like having the details in order/' y “I will write it now,” said Creel. “How will this do ‘Signpainter, see us as soon as possible about signs for both doors.’ That’s enough to catch the eye.” - “All right,” said Linden, “and don’t forget to have the bookcase Just right.” “Never fear,” said Creel, “and now for your plan. Have you changed it
any?” “Not yet. The under clerk goes out at twelve. If I can get Cosfeett to send Mr. Snee<J out I suppose in the end I shall have to use chloroform. If Sneed can’t be moved, or they suspect, I will have to get back |o our rooms somehow and wait for another chance. But, of Course, one'of those men will be nearby. Ttyey are too close to suit me now, but in the corridors of the new place they will be even worse.” *•* * ' * “They’ve hired a double office on the sqme floor with Mr. Cossett,” said Dempster to Captain Chesliey at headquarters the following evening. “By ‘they* you mean Linden and Creel, I suppose?” said the captain. “Haw' near hisr “Thirty fefet from his door is a corridor running at right angles with his. Their first door is just around the left turrv”
“Seen them?” asked the captain. v “Not yet, but Creel was seen at a furniture place, and when I saw the goods today I asked the janitor on a chance. He thinks I have deskroom in the building, so he told me things just as janitors will, to tenants.” ( “No name up, eh?” said the captain. “No; but that’s nothing. The signpainters of those big buildings can’t always be got in a hurry.” “There's something on, sure,” said the captain. “This Linden must be making some systematic hole in Cossett’s wealth. There’s no other explanation of all these coincidences. 1 never saw so many things that fit but don’t fit. x “He don’t seem to worry about ottrslowness with that card. Now, this time. Dempster, move on anything that looks susuicious. It’s better to run the risk of getting laughed at than being fooled when we have a good opening.” ~r “Some fellow with Cossett’s twenty thousand dollars is laughing at us now," cried Dempster savagely. “If it is Linden, I’ll .make it warm for him when I get him.” “It’s all in your hands,” said Chesley. “If you don’t find him doing something soqn after this move, you never will. Are they breaking up the old officer* “No sign of moving there. All new stuff in the new office.” ‘’Anything suspicious?” said the captain. “Not a thing.. Two flat desks, a railing, three chairs, and a plain bookcase. Two boxes with the books in them, I suppose. I didn’t see how they arranged the things. I couldn’t hang around and have Linden or that cousin of his spot me.” “They will go in tomorrow, then, if their stuff is arranged,” said the captain. “Well, good night, I’m going home. Do your best and take McGill with you whenever you think you need him. Two of you won’t be too many.”
Everything had been arranged to Creel’s satisfaction. Deskß and chairs were in place, and the railing with a gate in the center was just a few Inches clear of the bookcase. The books had been put in the case and everything about the office looked cheerful and businesslike. ' Creel sat in one of the new chairs waiting for Linden. The hour was eleven, and if Linden had decided to do anything while the junior clerk was at lunch, it was pretty near time for his arrival. Linden did not come in until half past eleven. He imagined he had been Been by one or two men who seemed to be loitering about He walked around the room and examined everything. the bookcase particularly. “Very good,” he said. “How do I look—palef*^ “Neither rale 'nor rosy,”* laughed Creel. ‘“then we will lock the door, and Til make up a trifle. An actor once taught me how to darken the flesh under the eyes and produce that haven’t-slept-for-two-nights’ look. A little stubble on the chin won’t be bad. Come and watch me handle the grease paint” •‘There,” he said, after looking hintself over In the mirror attached to the wash-basin In front of the office “Now for the green shade over the left eye.” -v.

The People's Right.
Lafayette Journal. - , Ohio is about to vote on a constitutional convention. This shows that Ohlb has a different way of going about the making of a new constitution than the idea entertained by Tom Taggart, Tom Jjarshall and a few of the democratic bosses of. Indiana. When a new constitution was 'thought advisable for Ohio the proposition was made that there should be a convention of the people for the purpose of defining what the constitution should be. But in Indiana it was the idea of the bosses/that the people could not be trusted, so tjje bosses, in their superior wisdom. prepared a const! tution which has a tentative indorsement and which, if objectionable, must be voted out of the way. But over in Ohio, the principle of constitution-mak-ing is recognized and the people are to determine whether there shall be a convention. Not having the judicial Wisdom qf a Tom Marshall to guide them the people of Ohio adhere to the old fashioned and simple idea that with the people rests the right of making their basic laws.
Year afjer year the farmers are taking more and more to the* silo. It was begun a good many years ago. Just a few built them and filled them’, while their neighbors prophesied disaster to their milk shipping business. Then the wholesale milk dealers in Chicago imagined that silage made poor milk and refused to accept it on some (Occasions. Some of the men who had erected their silos in the interior of their barns grew discouraged and tore them out or filled them instead. with shredded fodder. A few persisted in their use and finally won the battle. Today the tall circular constructions are standing up all over the land, and they are made of al’ sorts of material and the number is still increasing. This year broke all records for sales by the manufacturers of the now almost iqdispensible silo. The corn is cut up, ear, stalk and all, in a "green state and thrown i,n where it remains so all through the winter. It smells a little sour but the cattle enjoy it in the season when no screen food is available. Amy one who has never seen silage fed should take a trip to the country when the come, get into a good warm barn and see the eagerness of the cattle as the warm green food is brought to their mangers. Many of them fall on theip knees while devouring it and men all over the land now are admitting that it is the best food known.
In the state of New York, on Friday) Sept. 1, went into effect the most drastic law ever enacted in this country for the regulation of the sale and use of small' fire arms, and from that date on* ,no dealer can sell a revolver unless the prospective purchaser furnishes him with a permit showing that he is authorized to have one in his possession, The new law, which was introduced and earnestly advocated by Big Tim Sullivan, is so far reaching in its effect that under it 3 provisions no householder can even have a revolver in his house without a permit For a mild, easy action of the bowels, a single dose of Doan’s Regqlets is enough.

He .enjoined the state election commissioners from placing the constitution question on the ballot. The couft holds the people have no power to delegate to the legislature authority to revise the constitution or to adopt a new one. He holds that a constitutional convention is the only legal method of adopting a new constitution. The case has been appealed to the supreme court.
