"Hist!” breathed the little man so sharply that his hearers started. He winked mysteriously and they saw he was bursting with important tidings. “There's something doing!" “What is it?" demanded chief. But Mr, Dreux answered nothing. In stead, he lit a cigarette and as he raised the match, looked guar-’edly into a mir ror behind Donnellj -s chair. “I’m glad you took this’ table,” he began in a low voice. “I always sit where I can get a flash.” "A what?" queried the astonished Blake. , * with that talk." caution ed the speaker. "You’ll tip him off." -Tip who?” Donnelly breathed. “My man! He’s one of the gang.

I've been on him for a week. I’ve trailed him everywhere. He has an ac complice—a woman!” The chiefs face underwent a remark able change. “Are you sure?" he whis pered eagerly. "It’s a dinch! He comes to the fruit stand every day. I think he’s after blackmail, but I’m not sure.” “Good!” Dan exclaimed. “I want you to trail him wherever he goes, and above all. watch the woman. Now tear back to your banana' rookery or you'll miss something.. Better have a drink flrst, though.” “I'll go-you; it’s tough work on the nerves. I’m all upset.“ “I thought you never drank whisky,” Xorvin said, still amazed at the extraor dinary transformation in his friend. "I don’t as a rule; it kippers my stomach, but it gives me ths courage of a lion.” Donnelly nodded with satisfaction. “Don’t get pickled, but keep your nerve. Remember, I'm depending on you.” Dreux’s slender form writhed and shuddered as he swallowed the liquor, but his eyes were shining when he rose to do. “I’m glad I’m making good,” said he. Ts anything happens to me. keep your eye skinned for that fellow — there’s dirty work afoot” When he had gone Donnelly stuck his napkin into his mouth to still his laughter.. “ There’s dirty work afoot,’ ” he quoted in a strangling voice. “Can you beat that?” “I ■ ■ can't believe my sensei. Why, Bernie's actually getting tough! Who is this fellow he’s trailing?” •That? That’s Joe Poggi, the owner of the fruit stand. He’s my best dago detective and I sent him bere tonight in case anything blew off. The woman is hts wife, lovely lady, too. 'Black mail!* Oh Lord! I’ll have to tell Poggi about thia. I’ll have to tell him he’s being shadowed, too, or he'll stop sud denly on the street some day and Ber nie will run into him from behind and break his noee.” Thursday night passed without inci dent. Donnelly set a watch upon the JlsAWing club, but notiflng occurred to give the least color to the written warn ing. In the course of a fortnight he had well-nigh forgotten it, and when a third letter came he was less than ever inclined to believe it genuine. “You foMstalled the first attempt upon your life,” wrote the informant, “but another will be made. You are to bd shot at police headquarters some night next week. Your desk stands Just inside a window which opens upon the street. A fight will occur at the cor ner nearby and during the disturbance an assassin will fire upon you out of the darkness, then disappear in the con fusion. Do not treat this warning light ly or I swear that you will repent it. “One Who Knows.' 1 Donnelly showed this to Blake, saying souHy, “You see, it's just as I told you. They’re trying to run me out.” “What are you going to do?" “I'm going to move my desk for one thing, then I’m going to run down this writer. O'Connell is going through the stationery stores now trying to match the watermark on the paper. The post office is on the lookout fpr the next let tea and will try to find which mail box it is dropped into.” •Then you think there will be other letters to follow this one?" “Certainly! When they see that I’ve moved away from that window, they’ll think theyjve got me going, then I’ll be warned of 'another plot, and another and ancther. It might work with some peo ple.” The speaker’s lips curved in a wintry smile. “You no longer thin<c it came from one of the Pallozzo gang?" “No! There’s nobody in the outfit who can write a letter like that. It’s from the Mafia.’’ “How can you say that when the same writer betrayed Narcone?” * “Oh, I’ve asked myself the same ques tion,” Dqnnelly answered with a trace pt exasperation, “and I can’t answer it unless that was merely a case of re- THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL.

The writer advised him that his enemies had changed their plans once 6iore. but would strike when the flrst opportunity offered. As to where or when this would occur, no information was given. The Chief was merely urged in the strongest tertps to remove himself be- , yond the possibility of danger. Naturally the recipient took this as ; proof positive that the whole affair ' was no more than a weak attempt to frighten him. Unfortunately the pos- I tai authorities could not determine I where the letter had been mailed, and j O’Connell reported that the paper on which it was written was of a variety in common use. There seemed to be little hope of tracing the matter back to its source, so Donnelly dismissed the whole affair from his mind and went about his duties undisturbed. Norvin Blake, however, coifld not bring himself to take the same tfiew. As usual, he - attributed his fears to imagination, yet they preyAl upon him so constantly that he was forced to heed then* His one frightful *expe rience with LA Mafia had marked him. it seemed, like some prenatal\ influ ence, and now the more he dwelt upon the subject the more his apprehension quickened. He was ashamed to con fess to Donnelly, and at the same time he was loath to allow the chief to ex pose himself unecessarily. Therefore he made it a point to be with him as much as possible. This, of course, in volved a considerable risk to himself, and he recalled with misgiving' <hat Caesar Maruffl had said that night in the Red Wing Club. Donnelly alone had been warned, but that did not argue that vengeance would be con fined to him. (Continued in next issue.) MURDLHLII Oi BOYS IS ARRESTED IN ROCHESTER Police Confident That George H.

Nov. 16.—Utter discredit is thrown by military experts in, Eng land on the reports published ir| Vien na papers of the movements and opera tions of the Bulgarian' and other ar mies in the field. The reputation of TMeutenant Wagner, of the Reichspost. which went up like a rocket when he was claiming to be the only corres pondent witnessing the battles, has now fallen like a stick. The English newspapers express the opinion that the Viennese war corres pondent has been used, knowingly or innocently, by the Bulgarian staff to send reports of movements of the Bul garian armies for the purpose of mis leading the Turks. The great battle which he declared had been fought nearly a fortnight ago at the line of Tchatalja, when the losses were de clared by him to have exceeded those at Luleburgas, never occurred.

Nov. 16.—The Boys’ Corn club and the Girls’ Canning club held a fair Friday at the school build ing. The farmers of the county were requested to bring exhibits of poultry, livestock and produce and- the ladies to bring fancy work and canned goods.

The school children from the first grade to ’ the high school had exhibits in fancy work and plain sewing, breads and cakes, canned goods, basketty, woodwork and drawing. The country schools were all represented. The exhibit of poultry was very large and included nearly all of the best known breeds.

EDUCATIONAL TALK No. 3 WHEN I assumed management of the busi ness founded by my father, I gave my word that his high-minded, honorable methods would be continued —that I would expose Jraud in every quarter —fight deception and dishonesty with all my might—keep my business above reproach. This advertisement is in fulfillment of that promise. By reason of the continual emphasis of I ‘proof n in the advertisements of mail order whiskey concerns, the public has almost come to accept “proof* as an indication of quality. To correct this error, and protect the public from impo sition, I want to tell you, in the strongest language at my com mand, that proof does not indicate quality— and show you why. . Most people know that “proof* means alcoholic strength —that whiskey containing 50 per cent, alcohol is “100 Proof”, what they don't know is that whiskey may be “100 proof* and still He so raw, impure, fiery and dangerous as to be absolutely unfit for use. The reason is this: An unreliable distiller can (and does) use spoiled or “sweated’ * grain in making his whiskey, because he can buy it at a fraction of what No. 1 grain would cost. x \ He then proceeds to “graft” his mash by means of chemicals—a process that abstracts the last lingering drop of alcohol from the grain—and allows him to advertise his pro duct as “100 prooP’ BUT WHAT ABOUT THE QUALITY? r You know as well as I do that good whiskey can’t be made from that kind of grain—it is bound to be musty, moul dy and impure, because the materials were bad. Quality in whiskey is secured only by the use of Selected ripe grain—grain that grades No. 1 and brings top price— carefully and scientifically distilled without “squeezing” or “grafting” the mash, and thorough aging in charred oak casks in Government Bonded Warehouses. Whiskey made in this manner is medicinally and chem -ically pure —rich, mellow, palatable and beneficial. Don’t permit yourself to be fooled by this cry of “proof* —better send your order to a house with a reputation to sustain—a house that is known to sell goods of high qual ity —a house that never attempts to sidestep an obligation, \ and that conducts its business in an honorable, straightfor ward manner.
