SCHNEIDER CO* 409 Orient 8U, Palmyra,Pa, The Half-God BY ALBERT DORBZNOTON. (Continuation of Chapter IV.) The sound of the heavy footsteps in the grounds below aroused her. A voice called out to an . under gardener some thing which caused a stir in the con servatory. A door slammed, and the voice of the head gardener became less distinct. What had happpened? From the stairs she saw Fabian in the hall below, a newspaper in hand, walking with nervous steps into the library. Descending swiftly, she fol lowed almost on his heels. He faced her quickly, and she saw a poignant amazement in his eyes. She held his arm gently. “Something has disturbed you, Fa bian. What is it?” His hard-set features relaxed at her touch. “Some scoundrel has stolen Cal eret’s stock of Zeu! Sixty thousand pounds’ worth of labor and brains! God, .... it's unthinkable.” Bernice took the paper from his trembling hand and read in haste the story of Prof. Caleri’s loss. During the morning Professor Cale- ret had admitted into his laboratory a Japanese doctor ramed Hiogi Ham- mersho. It was well known that the professor had in his possession a mi croscopic but almost priceless quan tity of zeu, a new found element having many curative qualities in common with nure radium. Only the othet day the Paris Radium institute had offered Professor Calqret 60,000 pounds for his single grain of zeu. a sum far in excess of that paid by the British Medical institute for a grain of pure radium. While showing Dr. H mmersho through his laboratory Professor Caleret had occasion to an swer a call in another room. Return ing to the laboratory, after an absence of*a few minutes, he discovered the - was missing. Interrogated, Dr. Hammersho denied Knowledge of its whereabouts. Dissatisfied with his Japanese visitor’s statement, Professor Caleret communicated at once with Scotland Yard. A couple of plain clothes officials were despatched to the laboratory, where Hammersho consented to be searched. To satisfy the police of his innocence the Japanese doctor . asked for fresh clothes, preferring to leave his own In their keeping. As a grain of zeu might easily be spread over a postage stamp its discovery will need time and patience. Dr. Hammersho expressed himself willing to undergo any search test the authorities might ueem advisable; at the same time he insists that Professor Caleret, before leaving him alone, took care to lock his grain of zeu in a small iron safe kept in the laboratory. Upon this point Professor Caleret is not very clear. H< and the police, however, are certain that the precious stock of zeu has disappeared. Shortly after midday, Dr. Hammersho was allowed to leave Professor Caleret’s house in a suit of hew clothes, his own being kept by the police for a more systematic overhauling. / , Questioned as to the possibilities of a visitor swallowing a grain of Zeu, Professor Caleret said that the result of such an expedient would prove in stantly fatal. He was confident now that his new found discovery was not in the Japanese doctor’s possession when he left the laboratory. Bernice put down the paper, a sense of calamity and misgiving in her eyes, Fabian had dropped into a chair, his chin pressed into his hands. “There’s something uncanny about these Japanese. I’m certain that fellow Hammersho is responsible for Caleret’s loss, Berny.” “But he was thoroughly searched and examined,” Bernice faltered. “Even Ca leret is certain that the Zeu is not in his possession.” Fabian’s eyes were tight shut as one experiencing the last stab of misfor tune. In Caleret’s super-radium he had divined a source of escape or allevia tion from the dread carcinoma which he fqared was upon him. Of his fore bodings he had only in part confided to Bernice. Time enough, he argued, , to admit the terrible truth when the Swiss surgeon had given his verdict. The loss of Caleret’s Zeu might be a matter of death or life to him. With thousands of others he had seen in it a loophole of escape from the most dreadful of human afflictions. In this one hope he had assisted Caleret with large sums of money to pursue his in vestigations. The making of a single grain of Zeu had taken ten whole years At present there was no known method of hastening its production. As with radium, It was generated slowly and with infinite labor. Its loss was an irreparable tragedy to himself and hu manity. • Bernice felt the cold terror of her position. She must tell Fabian all about Hammersho or remain silent for ever. If the Japanese doctor was real ly responsible for the loss of the pre cious Qurative element then the whole world was hers. Fabian would meet the professor next day. How could she prevent Caleret imparting to him the fact of her having introduced Hammer sho Into his house? Such an event would involve her in a series of awk ward explanations for which she was unprepared. The unexpected arrival of some visi tors from London eased the strain of thought. With half a dozen artists and savants chatting and debating, dinner became a less terrible ordeal for Ber nice. Only once was the incident of Caleret’s loss touched upon. It came from a big voiced academician seated on Fabian’s right. “I think that Jap fellow Hammer sho is a sleight-of-hand expert. Rotten business for poor old Caleret. Fancy putting ten years of one’s life into an effort only to have It filched by some gollywog of an alien!” “The professor ought to have known better than admit the gollywog into his laboratory,” some one responded from the table end. “I’d simply gun a man who played with my life’s work.” “Funny how the Jap got into Cal eret’s confidence,” the academician re sumed, fanning himself with a wine £ard. “I know for certain that the pro fessor denied admission to dozens of reputable English medical men. Then he .allows an unknown Jap the run of his work room. Why, its inviting the burglars to wade in!” The other voice at the table end put the final screw on Bernice’s pent-up feelings. There was no mistaking its import. “Consider the infamy of such a theft! It may take years to produce another grain of super-radium! Think of the sick and weary thousands who have awaited the coming of such a curative element! They must continue to wait, poor beggars!” “The formula for its production has not been stolen, thank goodness,” the academician concluded. “Caleret, with the aid of willing science bodies, may produce another grain in a couple of years at least!” Fabian was about to raise a glass of water to his lips. His . face had grown ashen. “People die of carcinoma, say, in three months, less. A year or two! My God!” His lips barely shaped the words; his voice was husky with suppressed emo tion, but to the quailing Bernice each half-uttered syllable struck like a whip. She left the table sick and dizzy, while her male guests adjourned, with the weary Fabian at their head, into the main salon. Nothing remained for her but to see Caleret at once and beg of Author of "THE RADIUM TERRORS,” “CHILDREN OF THE CLOVEN HOOF,” Etc. him to withhold the fact that she was responsible for his introduction to Dr. Hammersho. It was too late for confessions now. Fabian was stricken. And of living scientists Jean Caleret alone had produced the one curative element capable of combating his life sapping malaise. She must see Caleret at once. Her maid assisted her into her driv ing coat. She dared not go from the grounds in one of her own cars. It might alarm Fabian and set him think ing. A taxi would be obtained near the station. Swiftly, silently she walked down the elm-skirted avenue, past the red roofed lodge and out of the gates. The night bore a chill death from the north and cooled the feverish throbbing of her temples. An unusual stir and bustle pervaded the little railway station at Chilton- hurst. Standing beneath the platform lamp, his face bent over a late evening paper, the station master appeared wildly absorbed in its contents. A hoarding near the bookstall finished its message upon Bernice. TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN SOUTH KENSINGTON. PROFESSOR CALERET SHOT IN HIS LABORATORY. v Bernice steadied her shaking limbs as the London-bound train rushed in. With half-seeing eyes she took a paper from the bookstall attendant; then, with a strong effort to control her swooning senses, she turned in the direction of Holmwood. CHAPTER V. Her only course now was to show Fabian the paper. Yet her courage failed each time she glanced at the eye-searing story of the laboratory crime. She had gone out intending to win Prof. Caleret int<* her confi dence concerning the incident of Hiogi Hamersljo’s introduction. There had been so much to explain. But . . . the world would never know that she had taken the Japanese doctor into Caleret’s house. Her guests were in the smoking room. She gave the paper to Fabian’s secre tary and waited with a heart that could not breathe while he took it in. Gusts of laughter came from the lounge hall as the secretary passed inside. The academician had been telling a story, but the laughter ceased instantly. It was as if some one had clubbed them to silence. Bernice strained forward and caught an exclamation from her husband. A babel of voices followed out of which was heard: “What had the miscreant to gain by shooting poor , old Caleret?” “Read further and you’ll see-” "By jingo! They’ve stolen his for mula for making that Zeu stuff. Won der if he left a copy elsewhere?” Jean Caleret had been shot through the head while at work in his labora tory. The assassin, according to the police report, had evidently fired through the barred window. The lab oratory had been entered and the little iron safe scientifically opened and searched. Although it \y v as known that the safe contained chemicals of value, none of these were touched. The Zeu formula alone was missing. The police were reticent. But that there were connecting links in the tragedy was soon apparent. Caleret had been shot within a few hours of the mysterious theft of his precious stock of Zeu. The theif or thives had returned evidently to gain possession of the formula. Its value to the as sassin was indisputable. Having ac quired the only grain of super-radium in existence they had evidently decided that it would be an excellent thing to preverit other scientists from producing it. Such an act placed the slayer of Caleret in sole possession of the great est of modern curative discoveries, un less Caleret had imparted the formula to others, a circumstances which ap peared unlikely to all who know the professor’s reticent disposition. The name of Dr. Hammersho was again mentioned in connection with the incident which had led to his detention in Caleret’s laboratory, but as nothing of a definite nature could be urged against him the police deemed it ad- risable to continue their investigations jn the usual way. Bernice retired early to her room pleading a severe headache as a reasou for her non-appearance among her guests. A terror of meeting Fabian alone assailed her. All hope for him lad vanished with Caleret’s formula, unless Rochwarne decided that his case was not inoperable. (Continued in Next Issue.) PIPE’S DIAPEPSIN REGULATES STOMACH Time It!

Prominent leaders of national reputa tion including Hon. L, M. Rhodes, of the national board of directors; Con gressman Bathrick, of Ohio, and Presi dent Charles S. Barrett. Another interesting feature will be the report of the national legislative committee by Chairman R. F. Duck worth, which will show the large amount of legislation secured of bene fit to the members of the union. The election of officers will also be i. id. PROGRAM 07- MEETING. The convention will be called prompt ly at 10 o’clock on April the 3. Each county is entitled to one delegate at large and one for every two hundred paid-up members or majority fraction thereof. President Rhodes will address the convention on the subject of “Mar kets;” and Congressman Eathrick, will speak on the ^subject of “Government lending money direct to the farmers at a low rate of interest.” President Barrett will discuss other legislative measures for which the or ganization has been working. Experts will discuss the plan for co operation and will be prepared to give any community information as to the organizatipn of co-operative enterprises. The following is the report of Chair man Duckworth on legislation: To the Members of Farmers’ Union: Per instructions, I submit the fol lowing report for the national legisla tive committee: The following representatives were in Washington at one time or another during the last session of congress: Hon. C. S. Barrett, president Nation al union, Georgia; J. D. Brown, vice- president National union, Oregon; A. C. Davis, national secretary, Arkansas; national directors, L. M. Rhodes, Ten nessee; O. F. Dornblaser, Nebraska; T. J. Douglas, Missouri; prof, rural eco nomics, J. T. Brooks, Mississippi; gen eral counsel, J. H. Patten, Washington, D. C.; state secretaries, R. L. Barnett, Kentucky; J. T. McDaniel, Georgia; J. D. Doyle, Illinois; state presidents, L. Thomas, Kentucky, E. W. Dabbs, South Carolina; Peter Radford, Texas; O. P. Ford, Alabama; A. W. Swift, Oregon; ex-state presidents, E. Cabaniss, Geor gia; W. E. Tate, Arkansas. It is a plearure to be able to say that every one, without exception, work ed bard. They made a good showing and created a splendid impression. PERMANENT BUREAU. If a dozen or so of such men could stay in Washington, during each ses sion of congress, the Information 'se cured would surpass that gathered oth erwise in a life time, and would be of untold value to the people at large. It is easy to tell where the Farmers’ union is strongest, by the attention paid to our demands. If the farmers could realize how organization affects legisla tion, every one of them would join the Farmers’ union. The status of our legislative program, at the close of last congress, is as fol lows : 1. “Postal savings bank law.” Passed during previous congress. 2. “Increased .appropriation for ag ricultural purposed.” Increased every year since we made the demand. This year’s increase over last year is $1,- 335.44,9. The total appropriation for this year • is $17,986,945. This depart ment needs to be made more practical. The farmers should demand this change. 3. “Physical valuation of railroads.” The law authorizing this was passed during the last days of the session. The law proposes that the water snould be squeezed, out, and that the railroads pay taxes and receive dividends on their real physical worth. 4. “A general parcel post.” The pass age of this law was secured only by a continued hamfnering. Its operation, when perfected, will be worth many millions of dollars to the farmers of America annually. It also can be of value to the consumer. 5. “Further restriction of immigra tion.” We had a, splendid bill to pass both houses of congress, was vetoed by the president; failed to pass over his veto. 6. “Prevent establishing of central bank.” The sentiment has been made so strong (by our activity) against this plan, that I hardly think it will be at tempted again soon. The hearing of our committee before house committee on “banking and currency reform” created quite an interest. It was said to be the “clearest presentation made be fore the committee.” Any one desiring this hearing, should write his congress man for “banking and currency reform hearing, part 9.” 7. “Secure some form of rural cred its.” The bill that most nearly meets our demands is “H. R. 27,661.” It pro vides that the govrnment shall sell 4 per cent bonds, and loan tho money to farmers at 4 1-2 per cent on their farm lands. Our members should write their congressmen for this bill. 8. “Exempt farmers’ organizations from prosecution under the Sherman anti-trust law.” The bill passed both houses; was vetoed by the president. 9. “The establishing of a bureau of markets.” This bill passed the senate, but failed to pass the house. We se cured an appropriation of $50,000 to be used in an Investigation of markets, methods of marketing, etc. This infor mation to be furnished the consumer and producer. 10. “The abolishing of exchanges that speculate in farm products.” The bill on this subject passed the house twice, but was defeated by the senate. The trouble is that many members of congress, who are so enthused when making speeches for re-election, lose their enthusiasm when they get back to Washington. No political party is entitled to all the credit for the legislation that we have secured, for it has been secured mainly by the constant hammering of the Farmers’ union. It is plain that the farmers can get any reasonable legislation they want, if they will go after it in an organized way, and stay after it in a way that their congressman and senators c?in un derstand. The unorganized farmer is of little importance, in the question of getting legislation; he is considered mainly in the speeches of members of our legislative body, and forthwith for gotten. Yours for the union, R. F. DUCKWORTH, Chairman National Legislative Com mittee. JOHN SPRUNT HILL STUDIES FARM PROBLEMS RALEIGH, N.
