the old explanation that always held
jihiiI when a prisoner who offended
the warden In any way was meted
out the vengeance that the warden
would not he denied. Once there was
a thin chested, cough racked little
election Inspector "doing three" for
crooked work at the polls who had
hail his frout teeth kicked down his
tlirnnt because lie would not shine the
warden's shoes. As for this slick Mr.
Valentine, he was altogether too Inde
pendent, too, and the warden would
give him the lesson of his life. He
would
The door opened, and in came Smith,
holding Jimmy Valentine by the arm.
The warden stood at his desk.
"Bring him over here!" he cried
honrsely, pointing to the space in front
of his desk. ,
The secretary slipped his hand up
behind the prisoner's neck nnd with a
violent heave Bung Valentine forward
so that lie wns barely able to prevent
himself from falling flat on his face,
tirltting his teeth, No. 1289 straighten
ed himself and flnnlly succeeded In
suppressing the impulse that surged
within hlin to spring at his cowardly
assailant's throat. Trobnbly it was
the realization of the fact that he
knew himself to be more than an
equal for Smith In n band to hand
conflict that enabled hlra to restrain
blinself-tho contempt of a strong,
confident man for an Ignoble inferior.
Smith was larger and heavier, yes,
but the man who had hip locked the
burglar Cottou aud had thrown him
headlong to his death from the win
dow of a rushing railway train was
not one to be trilled with. Besides, no
less a personage than George Bothner,
the world's lightweight wrestling cham
pion, had taught Valentine the mys
teries of the "grapevine," the "cross
buttock," the "Cornwall heave," the
"flying mare," the "buck heel," the rib
crushing "scissors," the waist and
crotch holds and even the tortures of
the deadly strangle holds, front and
rear.
Handler bent over his desk, resting
both his hands upon it, and sneered
at Valentine.
"Why didn't you smash him when
he lilt you, you coward?" he asked
the helpless prisoner in purposely ag
gravating tones. "You're losing your
nerve In this little boarding house of
mine; that's what's the matter with
you. You haven't any manhood left
in you. And, say, Valentine, when we
hove had you here as our guest two
years more you'll be whining around
like a puppy with the pink eye; that's
what you're coming to. It's bound to
get you-this life Just like it gets all
the rest of you thin skinned guys.
Only a bum can live this life and keep
his mind and his manhood."
1'he cruel words of the warden sank
deeply into Valentine's soul, as Han
dler well knew they would. But the
prisoner wns determined that he would
show no signs of weakening before the
two men who hated him.
"I didn't hit him because I'll square
myself when I get out," answered Val
entine defiantly, "nnd there are a few
little things that I will square with
Jin. too, Mr. Warden Handler. You
know you have me in your power, and
so do I. But. Handler, you're going to
like me better from now on because,
realizing my position, I have dared go
apalnst you."
Cut Valentine had mistaken his
man. The respect that one fighting
man has for another who fights, him
sijunrely found no place in the craven
beart of Billy Handler. Valentine had
yet something to learn of the psy
chology of jail wardens. Handler's
face took on a mallgnnnt expression.
"Oh," he sneered, "so I'm going to
Me you, am I? Well, just wnteli me.
I'll burke you, you"
Handler lunged around the corner
of his desk at the prisoner.
"Don't burke me!" cried Valentine
desperately.
Eyes gleaming with his vengeful
n. with hands outstretched, the
harden came headlong at Valentine,
who braced himself to withstand the
shook of the oncoming body. Crouch
toff, the prisoner primed himself to
c'utch one of the warden's thumbs,
which was carelessly extended out
ward from his hand-a trick Bothner
d shown him. Once securing this
thumb. It could be pulled back or
twlel to the breaking point if nec
essery to cause an opponent to yield.

Sd on to the .floor in a heap with the
(Dtooucertiuk "djiui; mare."
I Hut midway in hi rush the warden
topped short. He had caught hini
wlf JttJt In time. About to throw
'ilioaelf blindly at his Intended victim,
i thought (an Inspiration be after
ward considered It to be) flashed
hM!th iib brain. The warden halt

vretary. Smith, who had been watch

Then Huin.lcr turned away, rested one
'nnd ou his desk nnd with the other

ttrely. "God" be tendered "Suppose th
.ifuuniiii gui-ernor should get on to
hose deals la the contracts for sup
plies? Ho might, nnd then I'd need
Mm to be my friend "
Handler reaclipj out. picked up a box
from the desk and exton;ld It to the
i.ow thoroughly thunderstruck convict,
who was slowly recovering from th.
mental strain of the insl few moments
"Have a cigar." smiled the warden gra
clmisly. with a sweeping bow. "A 1st
permit me to offer you a chair, Mr
Valcutlne.
"By the way," he went on easily
"are you perfectly comfortable in youi
cell? If not, I want to know what I
can do for you. I'm roIiih to have
Smith go to see you every day to il:
for you anything that you want, pro
vided the rules of the prison permit,
and mnybe some things they don't."
Valentine, hardly believing what his
eyes and ears told him actually to be
occurring, dropped bewllderedly into
the proffered chair and. taking a gilt
banded Havana from the box, Btuck It
eagerly between his lips.
"Have a light," said the warden,
striking a match and extending it to
the end of Valentine's cigar.
The secretary stood across the room
near a door, eyes staring In his wonder
as No. 128!) leaned back luxuriously in
his chair, crossed one striped leg over
the other and sent fragrant clouds of
blue smoke toward the celling.
"This'll be n regular Y. XI. C. A. be
fore we get through," he gasped. "I
think I'll apply for a Job as worsted
holder for some old maids' sewing so
ciety. This prison is getting altogether
too genteel to suit me."
When a young lad of good parentage
and of sound training and education
begins to chafe under the restraint of
parental discipline It Is time for the
parents to exercise the wisdom got
only from the lessons taught in the
grent school of the wide, wide world.
Theories and principles expounded
ever so convincingly will not keep the
growing boy at home after 7 o'clock
In the evening when there i.i a chance
to escape into the streets to Meet the
"bunch," the nllurlng, versatile bunch
whose plans so often Include the anni
hilation of the Sioux warriors of the
Dakota plains who have laid down the
tomahawk to take up the agency cUy
pipe and store clothes. v
That Is to say, theories and prlncS
pies merely will not suffice to restrain
the Impulsive, Imaginative, action
craving youths unless the parent com
bines with them euough knowledge of
the world to convince the half formed,
half trained youthful mind that the
mentor bus the best interests of the
Ind in mind, that he has been through
it all himself aud knows full well the
joys and disappointments, the fears
and hopes of early days.
And It is the habitually stern, opti
mistic, unyielding nnd academic par
ent who convinces the young lad that
he knows nothing of the fascinating
temptations of boyhood. The spirit
of compromise is allowed to perish by
such u parent; the spirit of rebellion
grows in the son's heart; a spirit nour
ished ou the decay of the respect and
love thrust aside by the father who
would not understand.
A certain lad of sixteen years found
life in his New England home fur
more circumscribed than was that of
his companions of the same age and
same comfortable position. He was
not allowed to' go swimming In the
lake because his young friend Tommy
Clark had narrowly escaped drowning.
The fuct that Tommy Clark could not
swim and was "taking a dare" on that
memorable occasion when he verged

on death near the county line road
bridge and the fact that the lud we
are considering could swim very well
made no difference to the father as
well as to the mother. The sou must
keep away from the water. That was
tlnnl.
The further fact that this boy ns
pired to be a mining engineer mnd
no difference to this father or to this
another. It bad already been decided
tor him that lie must study for the
ululstry.
Three years passed. The lad wns in
i-ollepe. The study of theology did
not suit his temperament or his de
ires, ne wanted, above all thing.

with the Idea that be could succeed

ne waited Ave days. The answer
cable. The same night there were a
vacant room and a vacant bed in the
dormitory. Next morning came a
search. Under a table was found a
crumpled note that the tears of the
lad had blurred as he read. The letter
was taken to the president of the col
lege. When this gray haired gentle
man adjusted his spectacles he pressed
the paper Out on his desk and read:
"If you do not continue your course
In theology I will cease to pay your
bills at college. Should you discon-

tinue them you wtist return home,

Signed to this eloquent, brief epistle
was the name of the young muu 3 fa
ther. Several years have passed since that
crumpled letter was picked up from
the floor of the college student's room.
Several years have passed since an
aged couple, soon to eke out their
meed of existence in a small country
town, have heard news from the son
who would not become a minister.
Several years have passed since a
young college student appeared pennl
less and discouraged In a middle west
era city and vainly walked the streets
for days, subsisting as best he might,
in search of any kind of work that
strong hands and arms could perform
So there should be tempered Judg
ment shown, say I, in dwelling on
the present fate of Jimmy Valentine
when it is considered that he wus the
ambitious lad who left the crumpled
note lying ou the floor In bis bedroom
and set out to flght the world single
handed.
That Jimmy should have lost in his
first grapple with life should afford
no reasonable person ground for re
proach. Those of us who have not
lost as yet quite humanly perhaps in
cline toward comparisons which favor
our own acknowledged virtues, but
at the same time the environment of
our fellow beings at critical periods In
their lives should always be remem
bered when the final estimate is made,
It is human to have human emotions.
It is human to have Inhuman Ideas
concerning some of our fellow men at
various times: but, after all. why not
adopt the optimistic philosophy of Jim
my Valentine himself? For was It
not he who at the time "Frisco Eddie"
bungled the "inside job" of a safe
looting expedition In Omaha sought to
soothe the hitter's feelings by saying
sympathetically:
"Nobody Is a failure until ho admits
It himself. You will never admit
you're a failure, Eddie, so cheer up.
You. therefore, can never be one."
Consequently Jimmy Valentine must
be given a chance. His doctrine Is the
doctrine of hope. Give him a chance
to apply It to himself and await un
condeninlugly and dispassionately the
result.
If he succeeds in making a mun of
himself, a man such ns his Creator in
twided him to be, who is there to say
that his past has anything in it to
concern a critical world? Or who Is
there to deny to Jimmy Valentine his
birthright if he should miraculously
redeem it?
But should lie fall in the grent test
well, perhaps no word should Just
now be sent regarding him to the old
home In the little town, to the father
and the mother who would not under
stand. CHATTER VI.
THE weeks dragged slowly on
for Jimmy Valentine after the
momentous day when Roie
Lane and Meutennnt Governor
Fay visited tbe prison weeks of won

to have risen to the hi I; !:ts of cj
peotani y 11 1 all than on attaining tlier
to be thus rudely cast from them.
But Valentine had uct realised hcv.
slowly move the executive wheels :
tlu government of a great and bu j
stute. A governor Is heli to 11 stiic
accountability for his olllclal actions
uu1 lu the Important matter of t!)1
pardon of a man convicted to stntr
prison for a felony haste Is entire!;
out of the question. And It wns nr
day when Jimmy Valentine hud lo
every vestige of conddeu: e in INvir
Lane and her uncle and In the lawyer
whom he had retained that hurried
footsteps resounded down the cell cor
ridor. A paper, a glorious paper bear
ing the seal of the Empire State, wus
flashed before his eyes.
"You are pardoned!" came the wel
come announcement. "The governor
has released you!"
In one of the parlors of the Ton
Eyck hotel, in Albany, within two
short blocks of the capital, Mrs. Web
ster and Mrs. Moore sat patiently
waiting.
"You don't suppose Mr. Valentine
would feel uncomfortable in coming
to meet our party In a nice respecta
ble place like this, do you?" asked
prim little Mrs. Moore of her cowork
er in the Gate of Hope society.
"No," was the positive response.
"That young man wouldn't feel un
comfortable or embarrassed any
where'in the world. This is the first
victory for the Gate of Hope, Mrs.
Moore, and I trust your report will be
such as to encourage others to Join
us."
"It will be exact, Mrs. Webster, of
that you may rest assured. By the
way, do you not think we should have
had a few reporters here to give pub
lic notice of our first triumph?"
"Your report, my dear we will send
that to all papers," and Mrs, Webster
smiled proudly as she spoke.
A messenger boy came In with a
note from Valentine, who had come to
Albany to thank the governor for his
release and to meet the people 'who
had worked to secure him his pardon.
The note, written from the governor's
executive chamber, notified the ladles
that he would be with them in fifteen
minutes.
Rose Lane and her father, William
Lane, an Illinois banker, came Into the
parlor and greeted the two ladles, who
Informed the newcomers that Mr.
Valentine would shortly arrive. De
clining the invitation of Mrs. Moore
and Mrs. Webster to join In light re
freshments in the tea room on the mez
zanine floor, Rose and her father re
mained in the parlor, while the two
ladles departed.
Rose had not seen her father for
months, and on his arrival in the east
she persuaded him to accompany her
to Albnny to assure the governor that
if he pardoned Valentine he would
guarantee him a good business posi
tion. It Is more than probable that
this attitude on the part of a man of
Mr. Lane's standing In the financial
world had something to do with the
final determination of the executive tn
sign the release papers. It tended to
confirm In the governor his belief la
the prisoner's Innocence. Mr. Lane
md his daughter had waited overnight
In Albany nfter the granting of the
pardon to meet tbe released prisoner,
who was coming to the capital for the
purpose already mentioned.
Rose, absolutely positive of her one
time rescuer's Innocence, had made a
proposal to her father regarding tbe
future of Jimmy Valentine. Her fa
ther, tall, well built, with beard and
brown hair streaked with outcropplngs
of gray, smiled indulgently upon her.
He had ngreed on her account to place
Valentine In a good salaried position,
but as yet he bad doubts as to wheth
er he dared to secure for the ex-conrii:t
exactly the employment the girl de
manded for him.
"Now, sit down and listen, dad," the
girl said, crossing to a sofa.
"But, Rose, this is a most desperate
thing to do pick up an ex-convlct and
put hlra in a bank," Mr. Lane pro
tested. "Is he nn ex-convlct if he was con
victed unjustly?" argued the girl.
"Didn't L'tuie George say he was In
nocent?" "Not exactly, ne said there wns a
chance that he might be."
"But the governor pnrdened him."
"Guilty men have been pa:deiied."
The fiii would not be pilnsnld.
"Rut I want you to give this man n
chnnco, dad n good Imnre. He risked
his life once to save me from Insult."
She pattei her fnth. r's shoulder plead
ingly and affectionately.
"I know: I know." declared Mr. Lone.
"And you must see him." Rose wac
becoming fearful of the end.
"Oh. I'll see him, of course, but t
put hlni to work In the bank why.
Hose, It seems like flying In the face
of Providence."
"Dad, doesn't it mean anything to
you that I want it done?" Tears be
gan to gather In the girl's eyes.
"Why, of course." relented the fa
ther. "Your mother left you 40 per
cent of the bank stock, and that alone
would make me listen did you see lit
to even ask it, but who knows about
him, and suppose it became known
who he was and what be bad done?"
"I've thought of all that, and I want
you to risk It, and my 40 per cent
wants you to risk it."
"And jour Jbeart. JBose?".The fa.

tber's keen eyes-BearclTed the young
girl's beautiful face.
Rose returned bis glance calmly.
"Yes," she cried, rising and meeting
her father's eyes unflinchingly with
her own; "I've known men who
thought they were heroes all my life,
who talked of themselves and bored
me to death. And one day from a
clear sky, when I was struggling in
the arms of a blear eyed brute who
beat me If I dared move a hand, tills
man came.
"There was no blare of bugles or
anything but utter courage. He made
the ruffian leave me. His voice was
low. I could scarcely hear what he
said, but there was a note of com
mand and a threat of death In It, nnd
the brute disregarded It, and he mas
tered him, a beast twice his size. He
fought silently and killed him. And
all my life that man owns me."
Mr. Lnne was only hnlf startled at
the open declaration of his daughter
of her admiration and gratitude for
and sentimental interest in the ex
convict Jimmy Valentine. His train
ed intuition had already told him that
she was more than casually concern
ed In the fute of this mystifying
young man, whose record was appar
ently so bad and whose personality
and ambitions were certainly impres
sive in their good qualities. Truth
to tell, Mr. Lane was considerably
disturbed ot the situation, but he de
termined to accept it philosophically
for the present and to watch careful
ly the future development.
"Rose!" the father exclaimed as the
girl concluded her statement. While
he had realized her attraction toward
the released prisoner, lie had not
guessed of the depth of her feeling for
him.
"It's no good to be shocked, dad,"
answered the girl. "It's true. And
then he went to prison on the death
rattle of a beast like that, and I'm
going to make it good to him If he's n
ninn. And lie is; every drop of my
blood tells mo so."
"And you don't even know his
name?"
"Yes, I do."
"Ho guve you one, I know, but even
thnt"-
"Well, what of it? Does a name
mean anything to real men and wom
en? No. The one conies the one in all
the world and, well that's all there
Is to love."
A pause ensued. The futher was
first to speak.
"Do you think he knows how you
feel?" he asked sympathetically.
"No, nor he never will unless you
some day believe him worthy of
me."
"You promise that? rellevedly.
"I promise, dad."
"Will you wait until I see the gov
ernor, Rose? Let us go to see him
and ask bis opinion of the matter."
"Gladly, and he will believe in him,
I kuow," said the girl enthusiastical
ly. She heard a step behind ber, and
she turned.
There, with his bat In bis hand, well
groomed and wearing a well cut suit
of brown clothes light brown, the
fashionable color there stood Jimmy
Valentine.
"Mr. Valentine!" exclaimed the girl.
"Miss Lane, how do you do?" step
ping quickly forward, extending his
hand.
"This Is my father." She presented
Valentine to Mr. Lnne, who welcomed
him pleasantly.
Further conversation by the three
was Interrupted by the entrance of
Mrs. Moore and Mrs. Webster, return
ing from the ten room. Mr. Lnne and
Rose departed to go to the governor's
chamber, and the two members of the
Gate of Hope society nnd Jimmy Val
entine seated themselves.
"And now, Mr. Valentine, concern
ing your future," began Mrs. Web
ster, "what do you contemplate do
ing?"
"Get a position."
"We have already arranged that for
you, Mr. Valentine," announced Mrs.
Moore complacently.
