On more than one occasion ot late that debt-harried toller from the Applewaltbo works bad been visited by a stranger wbo Im pressed the sophisticated young Peggy (as anything but attractive And an honest man, Peggy argued with her elf, finds no need for stealing up to. a. house at nieht and clusetlne himself tw,lth its owner behind the locked door that one-armed man had me, machine lot a cellar workroom. So the spindle- work taken away from met" legged daughter of Dan O'Mara, watch-' ' . "But you'll have more'n your ma ling for her chance, decided to Investl- chlnff taken away from you, pop.

I've no love for goln' against the law, at me time o' life, out 1 guess we've got to take chances. We've got to, or go under for good and alll for I'm think. In' your poor mother was right when she said there was no crime so black as the crime o' beln' poor!" i "But they'd promised to raise your pay, over to the dye works!" she re minded him. ' ."Instead o' which they, took off me through thV house,' with a parcel under his arm, and then once more made her way down to her father's workroom. The door, this time, was unlocked. Bo she entered noiselessly t id crept over to where Dan O'Mara sat staring at the wall with unseeing eyes. "Pop, what're you thlnkin' aboutt" suddenly asked a ' tremulous voice close to his shoulder. He swung about like a shot ' "What should I be thlnkin' about r he demanded. , "You're thlnkin' about that man who was down here ten minutes ago," was the girl's answer, 1 "What man?" equivocated the cul prit. , . "Chinatown Charlie." ' " ' ' "And how'd you know he's called Chinatown Charlie?" demanded rebellious-eyed Dan O'Mara. . "I know more'n that, pop," said the girl, with a gulp. "I know that city crook's rppln' you in for work I never thought you'd do!" "Work? What work?" t 'There's a bunch of opium smug glers goi wise to the fact that the dye works is biinki?' In tons of that Kal sow wood from Chins. And certain o' them blocks Is goln' to come In hol low with secret marks, and you're goln' to dig the opium out o' them and hide It here until that bop runner for Chinatown Charlie comes and carries :lt away In a laundry bag!" !' "Ain't your mother got to have med icine?" demanded her father. ''Ain't 'we behind in our rent? And ain't the company docked me ten a month since Cation were limited, for Peggy was a bard-driven young housekeeper, with a bedridden mother to look after as best Ishe could. Late one night, however, when Dan O'Mara had led, his myste riouB visitor Into his cellar workroom tend locked the door behind him, the girl slipped off her broken-toed shoes jand stole silently down to that under ground chamber of mystery. There, with her ear to the keyhole, Ishe overheard enough to confirm her darkest suspicions. She waited until macninerana gave It to that one-armed snitch who claimed I'd been workln' against the company by tryta to ta lent a chemical color that'd soon be sandtaMhelr old logwood plant f the scrap heap!" : Silent as Peggy O'Mara remained on the subject of her discovery, she brooded long and darkly on this heav ier cloud that bung over her home and her father's good name. It haunted her thought as she worked. It filled her blind young heart with a spirit ol revolt It converted her into a dl mlnuttve yet lowering-browed Ishmael Ite. She bated the owner ot the works, she told herself as she carried her fa ther's dinner pall to the factory the next day, and she hated the bard voiced foreman ot the shaft room. She turned to stare belligerently towards Anson Applewalthe, the Immaculate son of the factory owner himself, as he ushered into the room of whirring shafts and flying belts a small group of visitors. . " v . ; Yet the Ishmael-Uke young face soft ened a little as she looked at one mem ber of that approaching group. For one fair-haired girl ot about twenty, dressed in black, whom young Apple walthe piloted about amid the roaring and clattering machinery and repeat edly addressed as "Miss Golden," was beautiful enough to bring a wayward pang of envy to the breast ot Peggy O'Mara. As she watched her eyes sud denly widened In alarm. For Margery C. B. Cauthorn, witness Stato vs Ohin Ping ...... ..... J. T. Williamson, witness State vs Chin Ping ........ . ... C. S.

At the same moment that Margery Golden turned about to determine the meaning of this sudden tug at her clothing, the alert-eyed Peggy O'Mara made an apparently maniacal spring for that astounded young woman's throat . . - With a quick jerk of her thin young fingers Peggy tore the cape free where It was already straining against the white column of its wearer's throat . It was not until Margery Golden saw the Iron teeth of the cog wheels swallowing up the last of her vanish ing cape that any inkling of her dan ger came home to her. Margery Golden stepped back and leaned against a guard rail. Then, aft er looking studiously at the slattern and slightly abashed figure of her de liverer, she opened her pocketbook and from It took out two or three neat ly folded bank notes. These she held smilingly out to the girl with the brokon-toed shoes. t But a quick flash spread over the usually colorless cheeks of Miss Peggy O'Mara as she backed determinedly awax-tomthe bills. 420 2.20 2.20 4.20 4.20 2.20 4.20 2.20 2.20 2.20 6.85 2.20 ; 1.70 ' 1.70 50.00 2.60 6.00 6.60 6.00 5.26 3 .87 4.87 jv 5.25 I 6.75 ' 6.50 .
