CHAPTER XI.
In the Fourth Estate.
The next day was Saturday, a day
usually rather flat and uninteresting,
as regarda Ita morning. In Central Lon.
don, and rather vivacious, as regarda
Its afternoon,' even In the primmest
suburbs. But that particular Satur
day morning was not anywhere des-
tlned to dullness. Clerks who strolled
across bridges and out of termini with
the sole Intention of drawing a week’s
salary and going home again, were met
by the posters of a special second edi
tion of The Daily Courier which con
tained an artistically, breathless de
scription of the night at the. Corner
house. No other morning paper had
' K >t" the most startling episode in the
annals The Courier's poster announced
thus: ’’Corner House Mystery; Scot
land Yard Defled; Detective Varcoe
Spirited Away; Is He Dead?” The
evening papers had not yet had time
to come out, so that The Courier hod
a monopoly for quite two hours. And In
spite of the fact that The Courier had
Just recently changed hands, tone and
politics, and was therefore bound, mor
ally or Immorally, to stir London up at
the earliest possible Instant, expe
rienced Londoners felt that here was]
something genuine In the way ofl
sensation. The voices of the newsboys]
as they cried The Courier had that
' tuke-lt or leave-lt” accent which on
the llpe of a newsboy always Indicated
that there Is no deception. The Glrftl
da affair had been great before; It was
now unique. It was (he one thing that
existed In London, and the accommo
dation question on the district railway;
even bridge was played less than usual
that day.
In the Corner house life had become
very difficult Indeed. Not later than n
o'clock the siege of the vicinity had
/'I ready been resumed by the vast Jels.
it red class that exclusively occupied
the main thoroughfare of the town. The
■ rowds were kept at bay on the con
fine* of Strange street by a force of
policemen, but policemen could not be
set to keep policemen out of the house;
nor Is the modern journalist, especially
when he is attached to a Sunday paper
and It happens to be Snturdny morn
ing, the sort of person that can he kept
Out of any house by any authority,
natural or supernatural, should he de
sire to enter It. The modern Journal
ist, at a salary of 50 shillings a week
and cab fares, knows the power behind
him. And what with police In and out
of uniform, and Journalists weekday
and Sunday, and the general leisured
public surging and staring at the ends
of the street, the Comer house had
the right te call Itself fully and strict
ly Invested. Chief and yet most mys
terious among the strangers within Its
gates waa a being from Scotland Yard
gronter than Varcoe; o personage. In
deed, than which Scotland Yard could
produce pone higher; the king of his
klml. Policemen did not refer to him
by name; they said 'o or 'lm. In nn
• Impressed whisper, with Jerks of the
head In the direction of the particular
room where this formidable being was
suppaaad to be. Few persons saw him;
he was simply known to be ’’on the
job.” And that he was on the Job, that
he. had designed to quit h|s lair In
order to come to the Job, rendered the
Job sublime In the eyes of those who
could differentiate between Jobs, lie
Interviewed Philip; Philip's leading lm
presstsn of him was that he was a very
good listener. He also Interviewed Mr.
Jlllg.iy. Shortly after this Mr. Hltgay
took to his bed and sent for a doctor.
The situation had become too vast and
complicated for Mr. Hllgny, and he re
tired, defeated If not disgraced, ex.
pel ting brain fever.
Philip, after what was called break,
fast, but what that morning had been
little more than A picnic, remained with
several other boarders In the basement
refectory, and employed his time stead,
liy In refusing to talk either to Jour
nalists nr to his fellow lodgers. He
wanted to do sundry things that he
could not do; to find a situation—he
could not even fix hla mind on this
Important matter; to have an exhauat.
Ive conversation with John Meredith—
John Meredith waa not on view; or, In
default, to chat with Sir Anthony—he
w,,uld have difficulty In getting nut of
the street—It puxxled him how the
Journalists went to and fro. No one,
imlesa It might have been the criminal
himself, was more Interested In the
Comer house crimes than Philip was
at that moment. He seemed to have
stepped right Into the middle of them;
they absorbed him like a dog. They
< frtnlnly prevented him from even be
ginning to carve his career.
A gray muatached commissioner In
the sober uniform of hts corps entered
the refectory.
"Mr. Masters?” he looked around In
quiringly.
"Well?" Philip replied curtly.
The commissioner handed a visiting
card to Philip, and the card bore the
legend: "The Right Honorable Lord
Naslng.”
"Hla Lordship would Ilka to have the
pleasure of an Interview with you, air."
The genteel lodgers pricked up their
ears.
“He Is—er—Lord Naslng." the com
mlssloner explained. "His Lordship
fold me.to say that he thought he could
be useful to you."
"Where Is he?"
"At his office."
"Where's that?"
"In Stewart square. I have a cab
waiting, sir."
'•And can we get out?”
"Yes, sir. Up Little GlrdleFz alley,
and through the yard of the Cup and
Ball."
Philip saw no reason why he should
decline Ihe adventure. It offered him,
at least an escape from Inaction.
"I will come .with you," he said.
He felt sure that Lord Naslng was
famous tor something or other, but he
could not recollect what; and he did
not care to ask the commissionaire.
His Ignorance of the latest creations
In peerage was deplorable.
Arrived at Stewart square, that
humming center of Journalism between
Fleet street and the Kmbankment, the
cab stopped In front of the glassy and
monumental Brent. building, where
three dallies and twenty-nine weeklies
and three monthlies had their home.
Of the four great Journalistic houses
In London, the Brent Company waa not
the least Important. It was a one-man
company. Nicholas Brent, Its founder,
had been the only son of his father,
and he had never taken a partner nor
a wife. It showed annual profits of
over a quarter of a million, and It's
dividend Increased each year. Its
three lower stories were faced with
glass, so that'the world might see the
operations that went forward within.
On the ground floor were the Victory
printing machines, which were even
then throwing off copies of the first edl
tlon (nominally the second) of The
Evening Record, at the rate of a hun
dred and twenty thousands copies an
hour. On the first floor were the
compositors engaged at linotype
machines In setting up the flying at)i
Influential words of the descriptive re-
porters and writers on the second
floor. These stories were occupied and
busy day and night—a symbol and
sign of the ceaseiess activity of the
Brent brain, that sardonic brain which
had Invented the celebrated newspaper
maxim: "We spin you a yarn today.
We give you the news next week."
The commissionaire, with the cour
age of an old soldier, plunged himself

IN THE MEANTIME
Mr. B waa also called
out of town. He waa

not leave his charge until, after a life
and a long corridor, he had deposited
him at a door marked "Mr. Brent,"
with the name crossed out and ‘‘Lord
Naslng" written over It. Philip re
membered then who Lord Naslng was
Tho commissionaire had knocked and
received a favorable answer, and Philip
entered.
The Interior whs' vast and noble, tho
caprice of a millionaire who spent the
whole of hts waking hours In the suc
cessful pursuit of pleasure by means of
business, and who believed In comfort
with splendor. Hts olllce was an exact
reproduction of Napoleon's council
chamber at Fontainebleau, with It*
celling by Boucher, Its Beauvais tapes
tries, and even the famous round table
whoso top la a single piece of mahog
any.
At the round table, which was coV'
crod with letters and slip proofs, sat t
pale, puffy man of forty-flvo with the
enr.pleees of a telephone strapped
round his dark head. Two young wo
men were writing In remote comers of
the room.
"No,” the man was saying with care
ful distinctness Into the telephone. "Gl
raldo. G, as In gin. I, r as In roller, a. L
d as In donkey, a. dot It? Good!” He
looked up. "Mr. Masters? Will you
sit down a moment? I'm Just 'phoning
to Paris,"
He flnlshed, what was apparently part
of a paragraph for the Paris edition.of
The Record, and then ho rang off, re
leased himself from tho ear pieces, and
turned to Philip. A messenger had
come and gone. The two women el
lently departed.
"Good morning, Mr. Maaters. Won'
you have this chair near the table?"
Thunka," said Philip. "Are you
rd Naslng?”
I am. You know I’ve Just bought
the Dally Courier?"
I did not,” said Philip.
And yet I have spent twenty thous
and In advertising the fact. It Just
shows that one can never advertise
enough. Well. I've bought The Courier,
and henceforth It's produced In this
building. You are after a situation,
aren't you?"
"Yes," aatd Philip.
"How would you like to come on the
staff?" The tones were even, placid,
cold.
"But I’m not a Journalist."
"That's all the better. I want new
blood. Journalists always think
grooves."
"I can't write.”
"That’s not necessary, said Lord
Naslng; "I can't either. And look at
me! I can hire writers for a couple
pounds a week.”
"But what do you want me to do?"
"1 want you to go round and get stuff
for The Courier."
"What sort of stuff?" .
"Bright stuff. Interesting stuff. Ex
clusive stuff." *
"And why do you pick out me?”
"For various reasons. Chiefly because
Evenwood, the speclat of The Record,
has been able to make nothing of you.
HI* description of you, and—er—what
we know—In short—"
"And the screwF’ Philip demanded,
smiling.
"What do you ask?"
Philip, having been thus requested to
open his mouth, decided that he ought
to open It extremely wide.
"Twenty pounds a week," he
calmly, drumming on the table.
Lord Naslng paused. "I will give It
to you. But you know the rule* of the
house?"
"No." said Philip.
' "No notice given or required. I have
over four hundred staff contributor*
and secretaries In this place. Every
one can walk out when he pleases, nnd
I can shoot ’em out when I please; that
is fair, isn't It?"
"Perfectly." said Philip.. "Life must
asset in London for a paltry twefity
pound* a week."
■'And haven’t I?"
"Yes,” said Philip. "Provided you
give me a month's engagement cer
tain."
“Impossible, Mr. Masters. I cannot
break the rule of a lifetime."
“As you please," Philip rejoined. "Bui
suppose the mystery was cleared up to
morrow, I reckon I should be 'shot out'
tomorrow. And It's not good enough.”
Lord Naslng rose.
"I admire you,” he said.
"The admiration Is mutual," said
Philip. "Good morning, my Lord.”
"Not at all," said Lord Naslng. "I
yield, young map, I yield. But you will
sign your articles."
1 will sign everything X write,” Phil
ip agreed. "You want me to beflrj
right off, I Imagine 7"
Certainly. 1 shall expect you here
tonight at 7 o’clock, with results, In
cluding, naturally, your own story In
full. If necessary, I mean to Issue a
special edition of the Courier tomor
row. Tell me, what do you think Is
the real explanation of this mess that
Scotland Yard has got Itself Into?"
Lord Nosing sat down again.

RELIGIOUS DENOMINA TIONS
SHOULD WORK TOGETHER,
SA YSPRESIDENTROOSEVELT
Oyster Bay, N. Y„ Sept. 10—President
Roosevelt believes that the various re
ligious denominations can best serve
ths cause of Christianity by working
shoulder to shoulder and that the tend
ency of the creeds is to come together.
President Roosevelt expressed this sen
timent Saturday In a talk at the two
hundredth anniversary of the founda
tion of the Christ Episcopal church
here.
The chief executive aald:
“I cannot understand how any Amer
ican citizen who haa the faintest feel
ing of patriotism can fall to appreciate
how absolutely essential religion Is to
the welfare of the country. We should
build our material civilisation only
foundation for the spiritual.
“The various denomination* can best
serve the Lord by working hand In
hand and shoulder to shoulder In the
great war for decency, honest, clean
living and righteousness."
The president concluded by declaring
that our country could not continue a*
a republic to rise to the level of great
ness unless that grehtness be based
upon and conditioned by the teaching*
of the New Testlmsnt and the gospels.

be quite Interesting here.'
Lord Naslng laughed. "It la.” he
sab! shortly.
"Of course. I understand your mo
tives," Philip remarked.
"My motives?" Lord Naslng repeat
ed, with a gesture almost threatening.
•'Yes,” said Philip. “You're going to
tell me to work up the Corner House
affair. Now It seems to me that, next
the murderer, I know more about It
than anybody In London. I’m In It
I’m of It. I've refused to talk to re
porters, and The Record Is cross with
me for bny silence. I'm worth money
In Fleet street. What you can't get
in one way you usually get In another.
Thai's why you succeed. Lord Naslng.
You think you've got the most valuable
arcoe—"
■'You think he's dead V
"I do. The late Varcoe fancied him
self too much. He fancied he was go
ing to do the trick all alone, and he
very nearly did, but not quite. Some
body else was just a shade cleverer
than he was, and that somebody Is the
criminal. He told me so. 1 am pretty
sure that he had discovered everything.
But he confided In nobody. That was
his mistake. Nobody at Scotland
Yard was to have a ha-porth of credit
but Varcoe. And so. In getting rid of
Varcoe, the criminal was just as safe
as he waa before Varcoe started his
Inquiries. I suppose there’s jealousy
at Scotland Yard as there Is every
where. But they'll never admit It."
‘•Excellent! Excellent!" murmured
Isird Naslng. “You go and write that
theory up. But, look here. If Varcoe
Is dead, where Is his corpse?"
"I expect It's In the Corner House.”
"Do you think you can find it?"
"Who knows?" said Philip. "Hadn't
I better be going?"
Yes," agreed Lord Naslng.
What about expenses?"
Carte blanche,” said his lordship.
'I assume when you say carte
blanche ymr mean—"
'Carte blanche," his lordship repeal
ed.
•Right," said Philip, getting up.
"Well, in addition to carte blanche
with the cashier, I shall want a—a
tame grammarian and a photographer."
'You moon to take photographs?”
I mean to show you what my notion
of Journalism Is,” said Philip.
He departed, with his scrip and the
staff (consisting of the photographer
and a youth who could write), very
Joyous In his new profession, and
withal gloomy as a man. The thought
of Varcoe dead touched his heart; a
nameless apprehension concerning John
Meredith affrighted him; and the por
trait of Qtratda was always before hla
eyes like a lure.
It seemed to him, howiever, that he
had sharpened the knife by which he
should recommence the carving of hla
career. _

Yasoo City, Mla*„ Sept. 10.—Replying
to a request from a Richmond, Va.,
paper for an expression of his views on
Mr. Bryan's Idea of government own
ership of railroads, Hon. John Sharp
Williams, of this city, the minority
leader In congress, has sent the fol
lowing answer:
"I am opposed to government owner
ship of railroads, Irrevocably, now and
forever, In theory and In practice—a
question concerning which Mr. Bryan
and I agree to disagree. But I see no
good to be attained In my rushing Into
print on the subject. We will simply
vote It down if offered as a plank of
the Democratic platform. Meanwhile
let us not magnify Democratic differ
ences. There are so many things we
are agreed upon—let us magnify them.
Push them to the front If we can.
Bryan Is not Infallible, and does not
pretend to be. He Is right about so
many things, eloquently and greatly
right, but absolutely and altogether
wrong about this one thing, especially
from the standpoint of racial peace
and quiet in th* South. Let us strong
ly regulate railroad rates, but net op
erate railroads.”
WOOD LICE FEAST ON HIDDEN MONEY
AND UNCLE SAM PAYS FOR LUNCH
Special to The Georgian.
Douglasvllle, Oa., Sept. 10.—Sam
James, a young planter, living near
here, fearing the safety of banks, bur-
led over $500 near his home last Oc
tober. The money was placed In a
fruit jar which was carefully sealed
and this placed In a wooden box and
deeply burled.
Through the dreary winter months
Sam chuckled with glee when he
thought of how smoothly he had elud
ed defaulting bank presidents, fires and
storms. Early In the spring he dug up
his treasure and finding It In perfect
order made another deposit, making
$550 all told.
Several days ago the wiry Sam
found need for a few feet of the long
green and reverted to his strong box.
But lot (he crafty wood lice had de
stroyed the box, and the Jar which had
contained the valued treasure now held
only a few fragments of bills.
Sam wa* down-hearted and heart
broken for the savings of several years
had been fed to wood lice. But each
crafty parasite upon entering the jar
had Imprisoned himself and the Jar be
sides containing the fragment bills
held also each guilty louse.
After mature consideration and
plenty of advice Sam sent the Jar and
contents with his. tale of woe to the
treasury department In Washington.
After a thorough Investigation and
having weighed each parasite the au
thorities decided that Snm's money
was still In Its strong box even though
not In Ita original form. He received
a check from that department for $550,
reimbursing him for the full amount.

There are 342 fertiliser factories do

foreign corporations.
This Information Is contained in
list of fertiliser manufacturers and cot

of agriculture for the season of 1605
1996.
This list was prepared by Chief Clerk
J. F. Johnson, of the department, and
Is "a handy reference for those seek
Ing Information along this line.
Clerk Johnson says there were only
84 fertiliser factories doing business
In Georgia when he went with the de

Of tho 27? factories In the state 112

Atlanta has the largest number of

Athens, Ga„ Sept. 10.—Dr. W. H.
Young, pastor of the First Baptist
church of this city, is preparing to
publish a monthly magazine, to be
called "The Bible Student.” The first
number will appear In October. It will
not be theological, doctrinal, denomi
national, nor the organ of any sect or
society, says the promoter, but will be
an Independent, educational, religious
periodical. The author states that It
will foster no opinion, preserve no
prejudice, exploit no theory and favor
no special class, but that It Is designed
to Interest pastor and people, Infidel
and believer, learned an(l ignorant, old
and young alike.
Dr. Young states that In the South Is
the proper place for the home of such
a publication; that the people of the
South are more Interested In religious
matters than the people of any other
section, or the people of any pther land
on the earth. In hla sermon Yesterday
morning he preached along the line of
what will be contained In the new
work, and at the close of the service
one member of the congregation of
fered to guarantee fifty subscriptions to
the magazine. Up to this time about
three hundred copies have been sub
scribed for, and every member of the
congregation will be an agent for It,
and by the end of the month one thous
and copies will be sold. ■ The magazine
will begin publication with this list.
Dr. Broughton and other prominent
ministers have read the advanced
proofs and say that the idea Is a great
one, and that It will fill a proper place.
Dr. Young Is the author of a number
of books. He has been pastor of the
church here for sixteen years consecu
tively, and Is much beloved by his peo
ple.
