Partners A Short Story By Owen Oliver

People think I'm no end of a Johnny.) but I'm not. I once did a, very clever thing. I admit that she made me; but some fellows never do a clever thing at alL Nobody could make them. To begin with myself. I'm Lord Charles Manson, and I'm pretty well off. The governor tied my money up till I was twenty-flve. When a fellow gets as old as that he begins to grow sensible, If he's ever going to be. Hawke and Solomon thought I wasn't. They may have had some grounds for their suspicion. When they showed the draft prospectus of the "Royal Iceland Gold Mining Company, Limited." I don't mind owning that I thought it was a really good thing. Tbe prospectus said it was, and print looks so convincing. "H'm!" I said. "I suppose the 6hares will all be snapped up? 'Pon my word. I" "My dear fellow." said Hawke, "if you would like" "Of course I .should," I said. "Then leave it to me." "We'll see you through," said Solomon. 'How many 6hares do you want?" 'Well," I said, "I couldn't draw more than $50,000 without letting old Vance know, and he's sure to go to my mother and make a fuss." Vance is our solicitor. "So I can't have more than foO.OOO." They were $3.00 apiece. "My dear boy," said Solly, "you shall nave them. In a month they'll be up to $10 and then you can 6ell out." Afterwards they altered the prospectus a bit, and put me in as chairman. I didn't see the use; but they explained it was on actount of my being a lord and well known as a cricketer. "I can't make speeches," I pointed out, "or do much of the management." "Not at all." Hawke promised. 'Solly and I are the managing directors. Of course we shall be glad of your advice at all times." ' "What shall I do first then." I asked. , "The chairman ought to have a voice in the concern." "Oh er certainly." said Hawke. "Come round the offices with us this afternoon and see the 6taff. Perhaps you can suggest some improvements." We went to the offices accordingly. When we 'entered the clerks' room. Hawke said: "This is Lord Charles Manson, our chairman." They all stood up. It made me feel deuced awkward. Then we went into another room, where there was a very nice young lady in a very neat blouse. She had one of those pretty Irish faces half innocent, half saucy and she made a dainty little bow. "This Is Miss Reilly, our typist," they said. "Pray, don't let' me disturb you," I said. "It's er a very fine day?" It was a beastly day, as a matter of fact. "It is finer than It was," she assented. "Miss Reilly does her work admirably." Hawke informed me. "Then," I said. "I hope she's well paid." "Certainly," said Hawke, certainly." "What er salary does Miss Reilly get?" I demanded. . . "Umph!" said Hawke. "I think" He looked at Solomon. "Well,", said Solomon, "for the moment" "Do you mind me asking you. Miss Reilly?" "Certainly not, my lord. $6.00 a week." "Really," I said firmly. "This seems a matter in which some improvement might be made." "Of course," said Hawke "of course. I'd no idea that Is was so little." "Shall we ssy $7.00?" Solomon asked me. "Ten dollars," I suggested. "I will Instruct the-- cashier at once," Hawke promised. 'You will always find his lordship ready to appreciate good work, Miss Reilly." She looked so pleased, and thanked me so prettily, that I was sorry I hadn't said a couple of hundred. One afternoon I was having a stroll in the park before dinner, when she happened to come along. "May I have a few words with you, my lord?" she asked. "As many as you like," I said. "I don't think you are aware," she said at last, 'that your company is only a paper one?" "Why." I ejaculated, "the prospectus" She laughed so suddenly that I laughed too. "The prospectus! Surely you don't believe that?" I asked her to sit down. "I suppose you mean there isn't much gold?" "There isn't any gold. There never will be any gold. The company Is a mere device to get the money of foolish people. Of course, you probably won't believe me; but" "No one could help believing you." I assured her. No one could. "But I thought Hawke and Solomon were too sharp" "They are. Much too sharp. They with a few of their friends, and you hold practically all the shares." "Then they'll lose their money?" "Scarcely, as they paid themselves for the shares. Shall I tell you what they will do?" "Please. You're awfully good." "They have just given instructions to brokers to buy largely, knowing that there Is practically not one to selL When they have bought a few shares at high prices people will think that there's a fortune in the company. They will see that its chairman is a gentleman with a reputation of an honest English sportsman." I bowed, .'not knowing what else to do. "So Rawke and Solomon will gradually dispose of their shares, and you aad the ' new

Mrs. Leo Gard of Richmond and the Misses Ethel and Carrie Kruse of Cincinnati were the guests of Mrs. Geo. Paul, Thursday.

shareholders will be left with an utterly worthless concern." "I've evidently been a precious fool. I don't see what I can dor "Don't you ? I do. When they have given sufficient orders to buy largely, sell them your shares." I laughed aloud. We arranged that she was to let me know when to tell my brokers to sell. We were just shaking hands for good bye, when I had an idea. "I say. Miss Reilly." I said, "if I get ; rid of my shares to Hawke and Solo-! nioa, won't they sell them to somef poor wretches who can't afford tbe loss as well as I can?" "You can't help that," she answered slowly.x ' "But I know what you can do," she said, with sudden animation. "As soon as you've sold them your shares, send a notice to tbe papers that you have severed your connection with the company." , "Miss Reilly," I said, "you are splendid:" i During the next week I met her every day. She gave me a lot of directions, and I carried them out to the letter. Finally, I sold all the shares to Hawke and Solomon, through their various brokers, gaining about $35,000 over the transaction. Then I sent my letter to the papers. When it appeared next morning I laughed till I nearly choked myself. After breakfast I went around to the office to give Hawke and Solly or both, if they liked a chance to punch my head. They hadn't arrived, so I went in and sat on Miss Reilly's table, and told her she must share the profits; but she wouldn't. Presently they came in. "Oh!" sneered Hawke. "Here is the pretty dear wbo has sold us. Mind she doesn't sell you a worse one. you mean, underhanded " "That's enough!" I 6aid getting up. "We shall not require Miss Reilly any more," said Solomon suavely, now that her dear friend the chairman has left us." "Put on your hat, Miss Reilly," I, directed; and ' she obeyed without a word. "No doubt," said Hawke, with an evil grin, "his lordship will provide more pleasant occupation" I knew he'd beat me In argument, so I knocked him down. I would have knocked Solomon down, too, but he bolted. So she and I went out together. On the quiet landing halfway down I put my arm round her and told her she'd have to marry me. She tried to push me away; but, of course, she couldn't, so she sobbed on my shoulder Instead. I'm not going to tell you all I said. The long and short of it was we formed a company of our own It is a very limited company made up of her and me. GREENSFORK. INDGreensfork, Ind., Aug. 6.

LIFTINGTllE SCALP An Art Net Confined to the North American Indian.

ALLIED TO HEAD HUNTING. Seme Indians Removed the Skin of the Entire Head. Including the Hair and Board of Thoir Victim Ears and Hands Aloe Served 'For Trophies. Tbe art of scalping has declined owing to tbe severe pains and penalties dealt out to its practitioners in tbe various states of North America. It was lu a certain sense a product of European settlement, for it would uever bare become so widespread had It not been for tbe white man. Scalping is commonly considered a custom belouging exclusively to tbe North American Indian. This is a mistake.' It is found In South America, and Herodotus mentions It as having been practiced among the Scythians. But as the old Greek traveler's book was not published until 1502 it Is probable that scalping appeared to tbe early explorers of America as a new thlug. It was first described by Francisco de Garey, who in 1520 came across it iu bis ill fated expedition to Panuco. He found that the Indians removed tbe skin of the entire head, including tbe hair and beard. In 1533 Jaques Cartier wrote an account of a scalping party which is more typical of tbe custom as usually found. From this time on it is described by many writers, notably Captain John Smith and Champlain. Tbe ludians themselves were uncertain as to tbe use of keeping an enemy's scalp, except that they felt it would hurt him in some way. Some said It put bim in tbe power of tbe owner of tbe scalp, others that It banished him from the happy bunting grounds, while still others believed that It annihilated bim. In tbe opinion of George Frederic!, whose monograph may be consulted in tbe Smithsonian Institution report of 1906. scalping is a modification of head bunting, a practice Indulged in by many savages. There is a primitive notion tbat tbe possession of a token or portion of a man gives one a power over tbat man. To1 keep the bead of an enemy puts him in your power, tbe savage thiiits. But it is often inconvenient to carry so large a thing as a head. A smaller token Is therefore substituted. This statement would seem to be borne out by tbe following facts: Many American Indians did uot follow the practice of scalping, notably those of tbe north, adjoining tbe Eskimo, the Frazer river ludians and the Algonquins of New Jersey. Nearly all of these practiced bead hunting. A transition period Is represented by tbe Caddoes of Texas, where tbe men took tbe scalps and tbe women at a more convenient period collected tbe heads. Some tribes in California secured, instead of scalps, tbe eyes of their enemies, which were preserved in some way. while others in Mexico selected the ears for their trophy, probably, following tbe lead of tbe Spaniards, who lopped off ears as punishment for crime. Tbe Hudson river Indians used to preserve hands, probably in imitation of the Dutch, wbo in the so called Esopus war, gave a bounty for Indian bands. Around the sources of the Missouri tbe Lewis and Clark expedition found tbe custom of preserving scalps replaced by tbat of preserving fingers. Iu northern Mexico tbe custom of scalping prevailed, but toward tbe south it was replaced by bead hunting. In South America there are two localities where it still flourishes. ' One of these is northern Argentina and Paraguay, where it gives signs of being indigenous, .as it differs in many ways from the' practice of North America. It is also found around Guiana, probably introduced by tbe Indian slaves brought from Florida. Tbe Huron-Iroquois have been accredited witb tbe invention of scalping, but unless it arose independently in several places- it much more likely originated In Florida, where It was first discovered by Europeans. 'Contact with a higher grade of culture gave a tremendous impetus to the custom. Previous to tbe Spanish discovery tbe weapons of tbe Indians had been very simple, being manufacture' from stone, bones, shells or even reeds. The tribal wars, though numerous, were seldom bloody, and with such primitive means the braves found it both awkward and dangerous to remove tbe scalp of a fallen enemy. But " the Europeans brought with them firearms and iron knives. The former Increased a hundredfold the number of those killed in battle, while tbe latter made the process of scalping an easy) one. Besides this, the whites encouraged the custom by offering bounties for scalps. The first premium of this nature was offered In 1G37 by tbe Puritans, who gave a payment for every Indian head, the custom of scalping not having yet reached New England. But by the time of King Philip's war it was in full blast, and in 1GT5 tbe Connecticut legislature offered large prizes for scalps. One Hannah Dustin received 50 and other substantial gifts for having secured witb ber own bands the scalps of two Indian men. two women and six children. St. Paul Pioneer Press. A Sure Way. .

While a number of workmen were sitting iu a wineshop in the Rue de Charenton, in Paris, one day one of them, a man of forty, named Negoder. made a wager that he would drink a dozen glasses of absinth while 11 o'clock was striking. The wager was taken and the twelve glasses placed on the table. On the first stroke Nego cler swallowed his first glass, and tbe clock had just finished striking when be drank the twelfth and last.

When taken in excess abslntn quickly deranges the digestive organs and destroys tbe appetite. An unappeasable thirst takes possession of tbe victim. Tbe next stage produces delusions and unbearable mental depression and finally lunacy. Equally horrible is tbe fate of tbe man who avoids orgies and drinks bis absinth In smaller but regular doses. His face gradually becomes sallow and careworn, and bis hair begins to drop off. Next come muscular quiverings, especially of tbe arms and shoulders. Loss of brain power follows, and be is haunted by horrible dreams and delusions. Gradually paralysis overtakes him and lands bim in a merciful grave. Pearson's. , .. Peanuts In tho Zoo. "I am perfectly used." remarked a visitor to tbe zoo. "to seeing monkeys and elephants eat peanuts. And I do not think it strange that the toucans rellub them, for they are very like a parrot. Bit when It comes down to polar bears, buffaloes, wild dogs and rhlnoceroHew liking peanuts it disturbs my ideas of wild animals." Pea nuts, however, seem to furnish tbe finest of dainties to even tbe "wildest" animals In the too. The deer, antelopes, brown bears, ducks, golden pheasants and all the animals there. ex cept perhaps tbe lions, tigers and ea gles, eat peanuts. Tbe peanut seems to have ctiarms to sontne tbe savage breast. New York Tribune. PENNSYLVANIA A I IN I? ft mm mm w Cincinnati S1.25 ROUND TRIP SUNDAY Leave Richmond 7:00 A. M.
