THE GOLD OF BY ARTHUR B. REEVE

THE GODS (A Mystery of the Incas Solved by Craig Kennedy, Scientific Detective)

; . THE .ACETYLENE TORCH . " k"Do you suppose he. really had the dagger or was that a lie?" -I asked, with 'an effort shaking off the fateful feeling that had come over me as if some one were casting a spell. "There is one way 'to find out." returned Craig, as though glad of the suggestion. Though they hated him, they seemed forced to admit,. for the time, his leadership. He rose and the rest followed ;; as he ' went into Whitney'B library. He switched on the lights. : There in a corner- back of the desk stood a safe. Somehow or other it seemed to defy us, 'even though its master was gone. I looked at it a moment It was 'a, most , powerful; affair, companion to that in the .office of which Whitney was so proud, built of layer cn layer of chrome steel, with a door that was - air tight and soup-proof, bidding defiance to all yeggmen and petermen. , ' 'Lockwocd fingered the combination hopelessly , There were some millions of combinations and permutations that only a mathematician could calculate. Only one was any good. That one was locked la the mind of the man who now seemed to baffle us as did his strong-box. . I placed my band, on the cold, defiant surface.. It would take hours- to drill a safe like that, and even then it might turn the points of the drills. Explosives might sooner wreck the bouse and bring it down over the head of the man who attacked this monster. "What can we do?" asked Senora do Mocbe, seeming to mock us, as though the safe itself were an inhuman thing that blocked our path. "Do?" repeated Kennedy decisively, "I'll show you what .we can do. If Lockwood will drive me down to the railroad station in his car. I'll show you something that looks like action. Will you do it?" The request was more like a command. Lockwood said nothing, but moved toward, the porte-cochere, where he had" left bis car parked just aside from the broad driveway. "Walter, you will stay here," ordered Kennedy. "Let no one leave. If any one comes, don't let him get away. We shan't be gone long." I sat awkwardly enough, scarcely speaking a word, as Kennedy dashed lown to the railroad station. Neither Alfonso nor his mother betrayed either by word or action a bint of what ivas passing in their minds." Someno w, though, I did not understand it; I felt that Lockwood might square himself. But I could njot help feeling that these two might very poscibly be it the bottom of almost anything.

DICK HOBUTZEL WILL STAND BY FRATERNITY

DICK HOBHTZEIfc Dick Hoblitzcl, first baseman of the Soston Red Sox, has announced at his tome in West Virginia, that he will itand by the Baseball Players' Fraternity in all of its demands, but that ie is opposed to an alliance with the American Federation of Labor, "if )ur demands re not granted," he said 'most of the players will stand pat. I, for one, will not sign." Hoblitzel Is under contract with the Red Sox for another year at a salary said to be $8,500 a year.

WOMEN OF ; MIDDLE AGE

Mrs. Quinn's Experience Ought to Help You Over the Critical Period.

It was with some relief that I heard, the car approaching again. I had no idea what Kennedy was after, whether it was dynamite, or whether he contemplated a trip to New York, I was surprised to 6ee him, with. .Lockwood, hurrying, up the -steps to the porch with a huge tank studded with bolts like a boiler. "There," ordered Craig, "set the oxygen there," as he placed his own tank on the opposite side. "That watchman thought I was bluffing when I said I'd get an order from the company, if I had to wake up the president of the .road. It was too good a chance to miss. One doesn't find such a complete outfit ready to hand every day." . . . : ; : ..Out ;cf the tanks stout tubes led, with stop-cocks and .gauges at the top. From a case under his arm Kennedy produced a curious arrangement like a huge hook, with 'a curved neck and a sharp beak. Really it consisted

of two metal tubes which rn into a sort of. cylinder, or mixing chamber, above: the nozzle, while parallel to them rah a third separate tube "with a second nozzle of its own. . Quickly he joined' the ends of the tubes from the tanks to the metal hook, the oxygen tank being joined to the others With a match he touched the nozzle gingerly. Instantly a hissing,, spitting noise followed, and an intense, blinding needle of flame. "Now we'll see what an oxyacetylene blow-pipe will do to you, old stick-in-the-mud," cried Kennedy, as he advanced toward the safe, addressing it as though it had been a thing of life that stood in his way. "I think thi$ will make short work of you." " Almost as he said it, the steel beneath the blow-pipe-became incandescent. " For some time he laboured to get a starting-point for the flame of the high-pressure torch. To be continued
