"Won't you ask him to come in, Nita?" she replied. A moment later a young man pushed open the door a " tall, clean-cut young fellow, -whose face bore the tan of a eun much stronger than any about New York. - As I took his appraisal, I found him unmistakably of the type of American soldier of fortune who has been carried , by the wander-spirit down among the romantic republics to the south of our own. "Professor Kennedy," began Senorita Mendoza, presenting us all in turn, "let me introduce Mr. Lockwood, my father's partner in several ventures which brought us to New York. As we shook hands I could not help feeling that the young mining engineer, for such he proved to be by ostensible profession, was something more to her than a mere partner in her father's schemes. "I believe I've met Professor Norton," he remarked, as they shook hands. "Perhaps he remembers when we were in Lima." "Perfectly," replied Norton, returning the penetrating glance in kind. "Also in New York," he added. Lockwood turned abruptly. "Are you quite sure you are able to stand the Gtrain of this interview?" he asked Inez in a low tone. Norton glanced at Kennedy and
raised his eyebrows just the fraction of an inch, as If to call attention to the neat manner In which Lockwood had turned the subject Inez smiled sadly. "I must,' she said, in a forced tone. I fancied that Lockwood noted and did not relish an air of restraint in her words. "It was you, I believe, Mr. Lockwood, who found Senor Mendoza last night?" queried Kennedy, as if to read the answer into the record, although he already knew it. "Yes," replied Lockwood, without hesitation, though with a glance at the averted, head of Inez, and choosing his words very carefully, as if trying hard not to 6ay more than she could bear. "Yes. I came up here to report on some financial matters which interested both of us very late, perhaps after midnight. I was about
to press the buzzer on the door when ;
I saw tnat tne door was sngntly ajar. I opened it and found lights still burning. The rest I think you must already know." Even that tactful reference to the tragedy was too much for Inez. She suppressed a little consulvice sob, but this time did not try to flee from the room.
"You saw nothing about the den J
that aroused any suspicions?" pur
sued Kennedy. "No bottle, no glass? There wasn't the odour of any gas or drug?" Lockwood shook his head slowly, fixing his eyes on Kennedy's face, but not looking at him. "No," he answered; "I have told Dr. Leslie just what I found. If there had been anything

else I'm sure I would have noticed It while I was waiting for Miss Inez to come in." His answers seemed perfectly frank and straightforward. , Yet somehow I could not get over the feeling that he as well as Inez, was not' telling quite all he knew perhaps not about the murder, but about matters that might be related to it. - Norton evidently felt the same way. "You saw no weapon a dagger?" he interrupted suddenly. The young man faced Norton squarely. To me . it seemed as., if he, had been expecting the question. "Not a thing," he .said deliberately. "I looked about carefully, too. Whatever weapon was used must have been taken away by the murderer," he added. . '. " . Juanita entered again, and Inez excused herself to answer the telephone while we stood In the living room chatting for a few minutes. "What is this 'curse of Mansiche which the Senorita has mentioned?" asked Kennedy, seeing a chance to open a new line of inquiry with Lockwood. "Oh, I don't know," he returned, impatiently flicking the ashes of a cigarette which he had lighted the moment Inez left the room, as though such stories had no interest for the practical mind of an engineer. "Some old superstition, I suppose." Lockwood seemed to regard Norton with a sort of aversion, if not hostility, and I fancied that Norton, on his part, neglected no opportunity to
let the other know that he was watching him. " "I don't know much about the story, resumed Lockwood a moment later, as no one said anything. "But J do know that there is treasure in that great old Chlmu mound near Truxillo. . Don Luis, has the government concession to bore into the mound, too, and we are raising the capital to carry the scheme through to success." He had come to the end of a sentence. Yet the inflection of his voice showed plainly that it was not the end of the idea that had been in his mind. ' . "If you knew where to dig," suddenly-supplied Norton, gazing keenly into, the eyes of the-soldier of fortune. Lockwood did not answer, though it was evident that that had been the thought unexpressed in his remarks. . The return of the Senorita to the room seemed to break the tension. "It was the house telephone," she said, in a quiet voice. "The hall-boy didn't know whether to admit a visitor who comes with his sympathy." Then she turned from us to Lockwood. "You must know him," she said, somewhat embarrassed. "Senor Alfonso de Moche." Lockwood suppressed a frown, but said nothing, for, a moment later, a young man came in. Almost in silence he advanced to Inez and took her hand in a manner that plainly showed his sympathy in her bereavement. "I have just heard," he said simply, " and I hastened around to tell you

POLITICAL ADVERTISING:.-.
IN this great crisis of our country I am more interested in measures than in men, I am not interested in parties at all. But measures can only be put into force through the men in office. We must therefore make a choice of the man and men who will put the measures in force. In the first place we should guard against Wall Street influences again securing the control of our Government. They have been rooted out during the last four years, and they are working hard to get back. The eight-hour day should be extended to all our industries where possible. Women should be given the rights which in justice belong to them. For years the argument has had some force with me that women should be discouraged from working in factories and stores, and hence, they have been discriminated against in wages, but I have slowly come to the settled conviction that this practice has been unfair, because equal work deserves equal pay. Hence, all women in our employment who do equal work shall receive equal pay. I regard war as the greatest curse of mankind that it has done more to retard the progress of the race and its material wellbeing than any other single cause. We want to see war abolished and we believe it can be done, and we must try to choose the man for the head of our Nation who will do the most for these ends. ALTHOUGH NOMINALLY A REPUBLICAN ALL MY LIFE, I AM FOR WILSON, AND URGE MY FELLOW CITIZENS TO STAND FOR HIM, BECAUSE OF HIS POSITION ON THESE AND OTHER GREAT QUESTIONS, BECAUSE HE HAS KEPT US OUT OF WAR AND HAS DONE MUCH TO BRING ABOUT THE REMARKABLE PROSPERITY WHICH WE ENJOY, AND BECAUSE WALL STREET IS AGAINST HIM. He is entitled to be rewarded for his great service to mankind, and the only way we can reward him is by giving him the opportunity to be of still greater service. The greatest reward for doing a good thing is the privilege to do more, that is why Mr. Wilson wants to be re-elected ; in other words, to be paid for what he has done by the privilege of doing more. I have much admiration for Mr. Hughes personally, but he is surrounded, influenced and advised by nearly all the evil influences of selfishness and greed which I feel have retarded our progress for so long. I fear his election would restore the old crowd to power and put back the cause of humanity for fifty years. In my mind, the most undesirable citizen in the world is the man who will buy another man's vote, and the next most undesirable is the man who will sell his vote because he not only injures himself and his family, but the community at large. I AM FOR MR. WILSON BECAUSE WITH A WORLD AT WAR HE HAS KEPT US OUT OF WAR. ALL OTHER GREAT NATIONS ARE BEING CONSUMED AND DESTROYED BUT WE HAVE PEACE WITH HONOR, AND OUR BOYS ARE AT HOME. SPECIAL " INTERESTS ARE DEMANDING WAR AND THE PRESIDENT IS BEING CRITICIZED WITH MANY WORDS, BUT STRIPPED OF ALL UNNECESSARY WORDS THEIR REAL COMPLAINT IS THAT HE HAS NOT PLUNGED THE COUNTRY INTO WAR FOR THEIR PROFIT. There has been much talk of the attitude of the so-called "hyphenates." To my mind these are merely sentimental Americans, men and women, who, like myself, have a feeling of love for the place of their birth. My observation has shown that among the best of Americans are these citizens.

To all these let me say : I know from many conversations with Mr. Wilson his absolute neutrality among all the nations at war, his intense devotion to peace, his deep desire to serve all the peoples of all those countries impartially. Any single act apparently against any one of these countries, is made only in pursuance of his duty as President of the United States and his duty to mankind. I know positively he bears no ill will to Germany or to England, or France, or Austria, or any of those countries at war, but he does understand and is opposing that invisible government, that unseen hand which caused this war. I believe those same selfish forces that caused the war are opposing the President's re-election. I AM FOR WILSON because he caused to be passed a large number of wise and humane laws, most of which had been promised by the politicians of both parties for many years without fulfillment. No one class has been favored, no one disregarded. He has served the United States as a whole. Among these laws are : THE FEDERAL RESERVE LAW, which wrested from Wall Street its monopoly of finance, released credit, forbade usury and dispelled the fear of money panics which hung over every business. It has done away with the concentration of money in the hands of ? few men in Wall Street, and distributed it among twelve Government controlled reserve banks throughout the country. The passage of this law alone, from the viewpoint of the honest business man, should entitle Woodrow Wilson to re-election. THE EIGHT-HOUR LAWS The eight-hour day issue has suddenly sprung into great prominence. . I say to you from experience and not from guess work, that the eight-hour day will help both employers and employees. We have had the eight-hour day in force in the Ford factory for nearly three years and it has been a complete success from every point of view. I AM FOR WILSON because he favors the eight-hour day. The President has declared that he is in favor of the eight-hour day in all kinds of business, except a very few in which it is impracticable, as for instance, farming. The President has been criticised for the passage of the Adamson eight-hour law, which applies to railroads, but that law averted the wholesale ruin which a universal railway strike would have brought. A strike had been ordered. It meant the closing of factories, violence and the enforced idleness of millions of persons and the loss of millions of dollars. Neither side to the struggle took into consideration the one hundred million people who would have to bear the burden. Every business man in the country was trembling with fear. The President acted as the representative of all the people and the strike was prevented and the principle of an eight-hour day endorsed. Seventy-four Republican Congressmen voted for the bill and no word of protest came from the Republican candidate, although the law was under consideration for several days. : . . - Mr. Wilson showed great wisdom and courage in preventing this strike, which would have paralyzed, the nation. - The Commission which has been appointed to study the effect of this law will, I hope, report that with increased efficiency the railroads will not need higher rates. But in any case this action is, I believe and hope, the first step towards the government ownership and operation of railroads.
THE RURAL CREDITS LAW under which the farmer is enabled to borrow long time loans on small payments, at low rates of interest; and it promises an annual saving of 1150,000,000 to farmers who were formerly the hopeless victims of loan sharks. These rural credit banks are now being established by the Commission in various parts of the country. THE CHILD LABOR LAW, which prevents employment of young children in factories and stops the coining of dividends out of the lives of little children. There is no factory and no institution that can possibly give any care equal to a mother's care. A WISE WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION LAW, providing compensation to those injured while in the service of the government, which measure will lead to "safety first." THE LAW CREATING THE NON-PARTISAN TARIFF COMMISSION which will go into effect very soon, and which has taken the tariff out of politics and placed it in the hands ofacommission of different parties, so that tar- ' tice and placed it in the hands of a commission of different parties, so that tarTHE GOOD ROADS LAW which provides $75,000,000 for Improving highways throughout the United States under adequate safeguards, which will facilitate transportation. This will help the country feed the city. The farmer will be greatly benefited by not being compelled to waste his energies on bad roads. Fruits and vegetables today are rotting on the farms from lack of good roads. THE INCOME TAX LAW AND THE INHERITANCE TAX LAW, which readjust the burdens of taxation, compelling the wealthy to bear a fair share of the load which has hitherto rested all too heavily on the backs of the poor. THE AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION LAW, which provides an annual appropriation for the direct education of the farmer, in order that the farms of the land may be worked with greater efficiency and upon a sound and scientific basis and produce larger crops for the benefit of all our people. THE ALASKAN RAILWAY LAW, which provided a railroad built and operated by the government, and which has opened up the resources of that great territory in the interests of the PEOPLE, not for the benefit of the few. THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION LAW, which creates a non-partisan Board to arbitrate commercial disputes, to prevent unfair competition and to stand as a barrier between the consumer and extortion. THE GRAIN ANTI-GAMBLING LAW, which provides better grain storage facilities, and enables the farmer to obtain certificates on which loans may be secured. He is thus enabled to borrow on the products of his labor and is not compelled to sell during unfavorable times. THE SAFETY-AT-SEA LAW, through the passage of which ships now carry more life-saving equipment, and the general living conditions of sailors at sea have been improved. THE COTTON FUTURES LAW, which prevents gambling in cotton in stock exchanges and establishes standards for cotton. I hope the President will find some way to pass a law to prevent all speculation in stocks. THE CLAYTON ANTI-TRUST LAW, which does away with interlocking directorates, prevents railway looting, ends the abuse of the injunction, and declares the great truth that a "Man's labor is not a commodity but a part of his life." THE ABOVE RECORD OF PROGRESSIVE LEGISLATION in the interest of all the people and not of the few, far excels any ever before known in our history. :..,.-- THOMAS A. EDISON SAYS THAT PRESIDENT WILSON AND HIS COLLEAGUES IN CONGRESS, BOTH DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS, HAVE ENACTED MORE LAWS FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE INDUSTRIOUS PEOPLE IN THE PAST THREE YEARS THAN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY HAS IN ALL THE TIME IT WAS IN POWER; and it is because of these laws and his leadership in the interest of all the people that the President is being fought by the special interests, by every toaster of Wall Street, every monopolist, every munition, maker, everyman with a special interest to serve. No business man should oppose Wilson because Wilson is the greatest friend honest business ever had in the Wljrte House. GREAT PROSPERITY COVERS THE LAND AS NEVER BEFORE. LEGITIMATE ENTERPRISE IS ASSURED A PROPER REWARD. THERE ARE NO BREAD LINES, AND EVERYBODY IS EMPLOYED THAT WANTS TO BE. OUR PEOPLE ARE CONTENTED, PROSPEROUS AND HAPPY. WHY SHOULD WE MAKE A CHANGE? In order to carry out his work President Wilson will need the co-operation of a Congress thoroughly in accord with his own far-seeing policy. It Is our plain duty as voters to send back to Congress the right men, irrespective of party, to assist the President in the great tasks that face him. ,
