"Tha Oltlwms' Rank of VenimRo" TO private bnk In a town In Missouri. The "Vnanno" part of the title bad buen In hwtail frum another bank, which had gone InU .liquidation yearn before, and referred to some laud apeoulation in ronnection with bunking. Onr building was a plain two story brick, tanfling at a corner, and the interior was plainly furnished, aa was the rule in those days. It wan simply a long reomdlridad by a railing in the center. Behind the railing were our dinks, and at the rear end wan the van It. The aecond floor waa namely more intricate. There was a front room and two rear rooms, with a hall the length of tlieae lat ter. One room was oxaerly over the vault, and thi InnIs mo to tell you how the vault waa built. It waa of brick, and two feet thick, and at the fop the Joist of the sec ond floor were covered with boiler plates. Toe apacm between the Joint were filled in with cemeut. On top of the second, floor JoJaU, liefore laying the floor, we laid other plan of iron, and when the bank waa opened for business we had little fear of our caah being atolen by any tenant of the up stairs rooms. The idea waa to root the rooma to law yer" or doctors, but the flrat caller decided to take all three, and to pay one year's rent in advance. He waa a atrangor t all, but gave hia name aa (Samuel Goldwaithe, and exnlained that he waa an inventor, and waa then Becking to perfect certain toola for the use of minora. One of his ideaa waa a drill to be worked by turning a wheel. The man had a iBank, open face, a amooth tongne, and when he offered to put down a whole year's rent in advance it would not have boon business to keep him out. While air. Desnoyera, my partner, waa perfectly aatiailed aa to our up ataira man, I waa not. . There waan't the aligbteat reason to aua pect that he waa not what he claimed to bo, or that bo had any dmigna againat us, but I aomehow felt myaclf suspecting him Iron the flrat moment I aow hia face. He hadu't got Kittled in hia rooma when I planned that he would enter our vault by way of the back room, or at loaat make an attempt to do so, and tbla idea waa never out of mr mind thereafter. 1 waa laughed at by my partner, but tbia only made me the more obstinate In clinging to my idea. (ioldwaltbe furnished the front room aa a reocption room and offtoe, the aecond aa a bedroom and the third aa hia workshop. Exactly over the vault he had a carpenter put up a heavy framework or beams, Ana among: the etuff moved in were chisels, hammers, augura, blla, drills, flies, bbwb and many other carpenters' and mechan lce' tools. I could aay nothing, as he made nau of all these as an inventor, but my sus picions regarding bis final object were con tinually strengthened. For three months our man up stairs aoarcely entered the bank below or Bpoke to one of us, except as I met him at the hotel where we both boarded. He waa so auiet and easv anokun that everybody had a good word for him, and he invited many of too townspeople to visit bis rooms and examine bis work. At the end ot six months he was uuiversully liked and re-1 spected, and if he had wanted a couple of hundred dollars at our bank a doien bual nesa men would havo baoked his note. While I had become ashamed to longer mention my suspicions, they had by no means left me. We iiad no watchman, and the safe iu the vault was one of the old pattern which was neither fire nor burglar proof. My chief dependence waa on the strength of the vault. I made all sorts of estimates, but finally decided that Gold waithe could not cut his way down into the vault and open the safe iu less than twelve hours at the very least. The tools and appliances of that day were very erode edupared to the modern. The man up ataira bud been with us half year, and no oue oould ftud the least fault with his conduct, wheu he seemed to make special effort to wlu my friendship. Up to '.his time he had passed the evenings In his rooms. Without raying a word to my partner I had passed my evenings la the bank, never leaving until about 10 o'clock. I did this to shorten Goldwaithe'a time, providing he intended to enter the vault. I was afttiiys at the bank at half-past 7 lu the morning, and this would give him only nine and a half hours to work, where I had (toured it would take him twelve. One evening something waa said about cards, and be so managed it that I iuvitad him up to ray room lu the hotel to play a faw camea. As long as he was there I ap prehended no danger, and so it Anally oame about that we used to spend almost every evening in company. Sometimes I went to hia room, ana sometimes ne weni w mine, and he never oxhibited the slightest curiosity regarding our business in the bank. One evening he did not leave me until II o'olock. Next, day Doanoyera aaidt "Our man up stairs has been away, ehf" "No." "But I mot him as he came from the 6 aot last night at IU o'clock." "You are mistaken.. He was In my room until U." t "is that sot Why, I met a man who looked exuotljr like hiiu. He waa oarrying aachel, headed for the bank, and I am aure he went up the stairway." This statement puazlod and annoyed me, and kent my suspicions active. Knowing that Goldwaithe was with me at the hour 1 of 10 1 was obliged to believe my partner mlstakeu, but yet there was something bout the case I did not like. About four weeks later, oue morning as I opened the hank, the ticket agent at the depot oame Clang on his way to breakfast. A train .passed at 6 o'olock, and be waa obliged to be there. "Lost your invenloM" he,askeJ eamenp. . "llow-whatf" "Why, Uoldwailbe. He went off on the train this morning, aru as he had a aachel with him, 1 didn't know but he was going lor good. Bought a ticket for St. Ioula." As tioldwalthe had boon with me up to 11 o'clock of the night before, and had said nothing of going away, I was puztled. This state of mind waa Increased an hour later when I saw htm in the bank. I atarted to ask for an explanation, bnt on aecond thonght concluded not to. That evening I saw the ticket agent and asked: "Are yon anre you saw Goldwalth go away this morning?" "Perfectly Biire. Why?" "Because he didn't go. He came into the bank an hour after t ear yon this morning." "Great heavens, man, but I sold Mm hia ticket and passed the time of day with him! Yon must lie mistaken." Bat I sail fled bimtfoat I was not, and then both of nt were puizled. About ewe weeks later I made an excuse to get Into the back room up stairs. I found a piece of machinery mounted on the woeaeti frame, and though I asked no quesnona and Goldwaithe volunteered no Informa tion I felt positive that it was a drill which was to be worked by turning a handle. A 1 told you before, so long as 1 had the man under my eye I did not fear for the vault, j H he was with me evenings I cared not what he did daytimes. Two or three weeks after the incident related above I had a four band card party in my room, and Goldwaithe waa one of the quartet. At o'clock I was called down state by the ticket agent, who said: "I want to know whether I have seen traight this time or not. Goldwaithe oame in on the 8:30 St. Ixiuis express." "You must lie crazy! He is right up stairs in my room at this moment, and Peters and Thompson are with himl" "But I tell you I saw him. More than that, he came up the street ahead of m6 and tamed into the stairway." I took him up stairs, and when lie saw Goldwaithe sitting there be was dead beat. Here were three instances of queer decep tion. While I regarded them aa decep tions or illusions there was something un canny in t he incidents, and my interest In the movements of Goldwaithe waa oonsid erablv increased. On one pretense or an other I got into bis rooms or sent friends up there every day or two, but everything appeared atraignt. une evemna: ne down In the hotel office to write letter, and while he was thus engaged I walked np the street four squares to speak to a merchant. On returning 1 met Goldwaithe face to face, and saluted. "Ah, you cut it snort." "Yea." 'Well, mall It and hurry back." I walked straight to the hotel, and there sat the man 1 bad spoken to on the street three minutes before! He was still writ ing. I asked a friend who sat reading if Goldwaithe bad been out, and he replied in the negative. I felt my hair standing on end as I sat down, and during all that long night I did not get a wink of sleep. My nsrtner. the ticket agent, and myself had all seen what we had not seen. Was he of flesh and blood, or waa he a wraith who oould appear In t wo places at oncef It was on a Friday evening I thought I met our up stairs man on the street Sat urday morning I took a stepladder and closely examined the top of the vault, and also sent a man np stairs to look at the floor of the back room and see if It was in tact. Everything was reported all right, and Saturday evening our man said to me: "I haven't slept well lately, and I believe I will try a change of beds. 1 will tarn into the room next to you for a couple of night, and aee if the change went bring sleep." 1 rejoiced at this, as I need not fear that he was at work on the vault. I satisfied myself that he was in bed before I turned and that uiciit 1 slept better tnan ior mouths before. He occupied the same .room on Saturday night, and on Sunday forenoon he an prised me by saying he would acoompa:iy me to church. He ap- neared to listen very closely to tue sermon, and on the way home pointed out itestrong and weak points. ' It was my custom to enter tlie nanx at noon to see If ail was well, but on this day, alter we had finished dinner and I was about to start, a friend came m ana i was detained about half an hour. Everything seemed to be all right in the bank, but, from force of habit, I opened the vault, and one look showed me that the climax had come. There was a hole through the roof of the vault, our safe was open, and lvlni on the litter of papers was a man. did not know whether he was dead or alive when I summoned help, but we soon found that he was dead and lying in hie own blood. The safe had been opened with wedges, and the t8,S00 it contained had been taken. It was half an hour before I thought of Goldwaithe, and then he oould sot be found. We burst Into nis rooms, and about the first thing we found was aachel containing onr money. The machine which I took to be a drill was a drill. A piece of the floor had been out out. the drill had then done ite work on the iron plates, and later on a chisel had been used to pick out the cemeut and re move the bricks. The robber could have begun work at 5 o'clock on Saturday even ing, and he probably did so. Who was hef It was Goldthwaitel Fifty of ua oould have sworn tt was he, and yet it wasn't. I had left him alive at the hotel, and he had skipped. Then who was itf Hia twin brother, as we afterward ascertained to a certainty. How did he meet hisdeathf He had got iuto the vault and the aafe and se cured the money. He passed up and down by means of a rope. In going back the second time for further plunder he had en countered a piece of glass iu the cement, and it bad severed an artery in his leg. Goldthwaite knew that I mistrusted him. He had, therefore, worked to throw me off my guard, and when the ptau was ripe for execution he lay sleeping within ten feet of me, while his own brother was doing the AW KNBMT BAFFLKU.
