His great achievement was the creation of a police force that did not know how to wink Edwin Towle#' inability to wfink glorified all his remaining abilities In Mayor Rcnahaw's eyes, who begged him to sacrifice himself on Ihe sltar of civic duly, which was Cornvlllese for accepting an apoplntmrnt as chief of police Mayor Renshaw snid that neither he nor hla sub ordinates should take tithes from Ihe har vest of stn and shame, and Edwin Cowles sacrificed himself Both played their des tined part In lha realisation of the Great Idea Then was the city of Cornville delivered Into the hands of the three had men. who opened It ns their oyster, and that wna theiralcstlned prt In th realtastlon of the Great Idea.

When affairs were In this posture anl ihe tunnel nearly completed Ruderlck Mc- K|owd stepped cite day off a train which had brought him out of the b-yond.

When Inquisitive, the Under World l- like a child—lt walk* up and ask* the ques tions. and Roderick McKlowd’s ctlb e was besieged by "guns" who deslted to know what was what and what ws "doing" Among the met there were the three, who hidyx me by special summons Ho far h* derlck had hoped it would. The lln ue-inl value of the idea was still to le demon strated. The three bad men were Invito I Into Ruderlck * private office, were, by Judk ious questioning, they were made to declare that they had nothing whatever "on” and had not done any business In the town since the feform administration went Into power, and that they had been "ditched” by Ruderlck # Idea, and were tick of the place and ready to quit It T<> all of this Ruderlck listened with a po liteness which was exemplary In a pub to (•fiber and an old friend. Whe.n (hey ha-l finished, his reply, too, was exemplary gist significant. "Blokes." he said. "I ain't much on chewin' Ihe rag, hul I'm more'n a little glad o' what you've told me. 'n' that you're sick of the town I'm particular glad you’re nol mixed up In that tunnel business under Knglar's bank. The fel ler that's done that has got to choke It off. see? I can't stand for It.
