MAN WHO SOLD 'CRISIS' IN MISSISSIPPI TOWN 'BEATEN TO A JELLY'
(Special to the Tribune)
New York, N. Y., May 5.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, announces the receipt on April 26 of a telegram from Hon. Lee M. Russell, Governor of Mississippi, stating that "Franklin and all other persons will always have full protection of our laws in securing their legal rights." This telegram was dated Jackson, Miss., 11:45 a. m. Apr.1 26.
Note: On April 22 the Association mailed to the press copies of telegrams passing between the Association, the Governor and Acting Governor of Mississippi, the last two being the telegram of April 21 of Acting Governor H. H. Casteel, in which he evaded replying to the Association's appeal for protection and in defiant language threatening that the editor of the Crisis, the Association's organ, would be made an example of if he appeared in Mississippi, and the Association's second appeal for legal protection following the receipt of the Acting Governor's wire.
The Association announces that since the publication of these telegrams it has been informed from two sources, one of them a white man, that the Rev. E. R. Franklin was badly laten in addition to being fined, the beating being described as "beaten into a jelly." The Association is unable, upon its own authority, to substantiate this allegation, but in one case the information came to it from a man who had written to a third party on other matters and mentioned this case incidentally as a matter of news. In the other case, information came directly from a correspondent familiar with all details of the case.
WHITE EDITOR AVERS
NEGRO CAN'T GET JUSTICE;
HELD FOR CONTEMP
Helena, Ark.—When the Green Forest (Ark.) News, a white publication edited by Hon. Benjamin Freeman, appeared on the streets recently with an article declaring that injustice had been done the Negroes in convictions in the Elaine cases, and emphatically declaring that Robert L. Hill, who was recently returned to this state from Kansas on a charge of being connected in some way with the alleged uprising of Negroes, great excitement was in evidence among the whites, and the fair-minded editor was readily summoned before Judge J. M. Jackson and ordered to give reasons why he should not be held for contempt of court. The article appearing in the paper also praised Governor Allen of Kansas for refusing to honor the requisition of Governor Brough of this state for Hill's return to Phillips county.

Pittsburgh, Penn. May 6.—The large colored voting population of the first legislative district desires representation in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. Several colored Republicans of the district were seeking the honor. In an elimination contest held recently, a majority of the colored Republicans selected William M. Randolph and agreed to support him in the primaries, all of the other colored aspirants withdrawing from the race.
Mr. Advertiser
The Tribune is read by practically every Colored family in Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler, and Tempe. It also has a wide circulation throughout the State of Arizona as well as in New Mexico, southwest Texas and other states.
RAY
(By Archie Lewis)
There was a very good attendance at church last Sunday and two splendid services were held.
Mrs. J. A. Lewis entertained Saturday evening, May 1, complimentary to Mrs. Jerry Hinton and Mrs. Achie Lewis. The color scheme was white and yellow, the centerpiece being composed of beautiful yellow daisies. Tea, coffee, ice cream and cake were served, after which the evening was spent in conversation. On departing the guests proclaimed Mrs. Lewis an excellent hostess. Among those present were: Mrs. J. J. McKelvey, Mrs. Renben Reed, Mrs. A. Bueford, Mrs. L. H. Harris, Mrs. Nathaniel Harris, Mrs. C. H. Vann, Mrs. Frank Smith, Mrs. Jerome Wooden and the honor guests.
Mrs. Jerry Hinton, accompanied by Mrs. Archie Lewis and children, left Friday for Los Angeles, where Mrs. Lewis and children will spend the summer as guests of Mrs. Hinton.
Mr. Wm. P. Crump returned this week from Phoenix, where he spent several days with his family. He recently purchased two houses in Sonora Town, and has engaged Messrs. J. A. Lewis and J. J. McDonald to wreck them. The lumber will be shipped to Phoenix to be used in constructing houses on his property there.
We see by the papers that the local boxing promoters are negotiating with a great boxer on the coast and will try to get him to come here and whip Rufus Williams. The writer of the article states that: "Us white folks want to see Rufus whipped." Mr. Williams says he will come here and fight anybody at any time if he gets his price. If he does, methinks "us white folks" will nearly all have their money on the colored boy to win.
Mose Davis spent a few days in Phoenix last week visiting his wife, who is undergoing treatment from Dr. W. C. Hackett.
William Wolf of Tucson was arrested at Kelvin last Saturday, charged with burglarizing two houses in Ray. He claims that he is innocent of the crime and will fight the case to a finish. He was taken to Florence, the county seat, for trial.
MESA
(By Alphonso Robinson)
Rev. J. M. Robinson preached Sunday night at Mt. Calvary Baptist church. A fair-sized audience greeted his remarks, and Mr. Ed Turner came forward and connected with the church.
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Turner are recent arrivals from Ajo, Arizona, and have rented a house on Main street. We are always glad to welcome such good people to this community.
Mrs. Mary Turner of Phoenix was a Sunday visitor in Mesa.
Rev. Robinson and Mrs. Mary Turner were dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. James Turner Sunday evening.
Sunday, Rev. Hall was a visitor in Mesa and preached at the Baptist church.
The B. Y. P. U. gave an entertainment last week at the residence of Mrs. Vera Moore, and every one present reports an enjoyable time.
Jersey City, N. J., May 6.—If all Presbyterian churches accepted their quota of the New Era, 1920-21, $23,000,000 budget with the same enthusiasm as shown by the Lafayette Negro Presbyterian church of Jersey City, N. J., Presbyterian officials are agreed that the total amount would easily be pledged. The Lafayette Presbyterian church has accepted its quota of $2,600, despite of the fact that it has plans for a new edifice which will cost within the neighborhood of $60,000 to $75,000.
Anniston, Ala., May 6.—Under sentence for life for the murder of Hattie Wood, and denied a new hearing by the Supreme Court, Jordan West was carried to the state penitentiary at Speigner's by Convict Inspector Len F. Greer. West was convicted on the murder charge a year ago, but his appeal to the Supreme Court was denied last week.

ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, MAY 8, 1920
GARRET OF PRESCOTT STRIKES RICH ORE IN THE BANNIE MINE
(Special to the Tribune)
Prescott, May 6—Garret, the barber, who has been pinning his faith to the ultimate success of the Bannie for the past few years, is highly elated over the recent good ore showing made in the mine. He has put in every dollar he could beg, borrow or steal, has sold everything except his razor, his strop and his hone, and a cabin for the "Missus," and says he will bet his last bean on her making a great mine, and that now he has no chance to lose. He surely deserves to make a killing for that unswerving faith.
PIONEER MURDERED IN
HOUSTON, TEXAS
(By Associated Negro Press)
Houston, Tex., May 6.—Mr. John Williams, 70 years old, reputed to be one of the wealthiest Negroes in Houston, was found murdered in the living quarters above his store in the 2200 block on Lawrence street. It was believed that he was killed about 10:30 o'clock the evening before, neighbors having heard several shots at that time. Officers believe that robbery was not the entire motive, although efforts apparently had been made to break into a safe.
MEMBERSHIP DRIVE STARTS
(By Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., May 6.—The National Negro Business League is launching one of the biggest campaigns in the history of the race. In practically every city in America during the wee kof May 23rd an intensive membership campaign will be started, and no man or woman who has the business interest of the race at heart will escape the campaigners. The entire machinery of the National League is oiled up and ready to go, expressing its unlimited power through its local leagues. Every office of the league is pledged to put his full personality into this effort.
Meridian, Miss., May 6.—The city was thrown in a furore of excitement when Ludie Martin, about 21 years of age, was arrested and brought to this city in connection with the murder of Miss Carrie, Hatcher, which occurred at Marion. Chief of Police Ludie Monette stated that he was convinced that the evidence against the Negro was not sufficient. He stated that a starting point had been reached and asked that the crowds disperse. The crowd began to break up and by midnight everything was quiet about the county bastile.
Washington, D. C., May 6.—Senator Selden P. Spencer, of St. Louis, Mo., has introduced a bill to create a commission of the race question. The population of the country is calculated in this bill as containing three elements or divisions, viz., white men from the north, white men from the south, and colored men, and the personnel of the commission is to consist of three representative men from each of these groups, making the total nine. The commission is to examine into the racial question, ascertain causes of unrest, report to Congress with remedial recommendation.
New York, N. Y., May 6.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People recently made public copies of telegrams passing between the association and the Governor and Acting Governor of Mississippi, in which the association asked legal protection for a lawyer to appeal the case of the Rev. E. R. Franklin, of Jackson, Miss., who was fined $400 and sentenced to five months on the county farm at Tchula, Miss., for selling the Crisis.
Memphis, Tenn., May 6.—The commencement exercises of the University of West Tennessee, Memphis, will be held May 10th. Rev. A. M. Townsend has been selected to preach the commencement sermon May 9th. Prof. E. Clippinger, A. M., principal of LeMoyne Institute, will deliver the commencement address.

CHANDLER
Major Sutty of Phoenix is stopping a while at the Gray ranch.
Mrs. Jack Gray has returned home after a week's stay in Phoenix looking after her daughter, Mrs. E, Fuller, who is stopping at Mrs. Louis Varnes' of 1225 East Madison street.
Mr. Walter McConnell has purchased two lots in Chandler and contemplates building a modern bungalow in the near future.
Mr. Ed Burkhardt of Goodyear was a visitor in Chandler this week.
A good opportunity for a first-class barter is open in Chandler at one of the hotels.
Mrs. Fuller has returned home after spending a month in Phoenix in the hospital and at Mrs. Louis Varnes' home. Mrs. Fuller wishes to thank her many friends for their kindness, and especially Mr. and Mrs. Louis Varnes for their kindness and considerations shown her during her illness and stay at their beautiful home on East Madison street.
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Gray and Mrs. Fuller were very agreeably surprised Sunday with a big turkey dinner given by Mrs. Mose Green. Covers were laid for several bad every one enjoyed themselves to the limit.
Mrs. Furguson and family of Mesa are now residents of Chandler. We hope they have come to stay.
Mrs. F. Grier has been indisposed for several days.
There is just enough difference between celebrity and notoriety to make one hesitate before aspiring to the possession of either.

Those riots in Egypt have not as yet reached the point, we are informed, of being disquieting to the manufacture of Egyptian cigarettes in this country.
If city children have the best of it in the matter of health, as a New York physician says, perhaps the reason is that eggs and milk are too expensive for the farmer to feed his children.
About 95 per cent of the energy devoted to propaganda in this country would produce better results if it operated with plows instead of typewriters and things.

SENTENCED TO PEN MAN FAINTS IN COURT WHEN VERDICT IS ANNOUNCED
(By Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., May 6.—Federal Judge Landis, sitting in the United States district court, sentenced Jesse Nash, a colored man, to the penitentiary for twenty-five seconds for reciving and opening another man's mail. Nash fainted when the sentence was announced and there was a general commotion in the court room. The prisoner and the onlookers had understood the judge to say twenty-five years instead of seconds. Nash, according to the testimony, had suspected his wife of writing love letters to another man. He went to the postoffice general delivery and asked for the man's mail. He was given a letter in his wife's handwriting. The other man, E. A. Ahern, had Nash arrested for stealing his mail.
IT DURING A TWO WEEKS'
VISIT—DAVIS SAYS THAT
BELL WELL IS A GOOD ONE
I saw the Bell well pumping and after many a day's test, I am convinced that it is not only a real oil well, but that it will be a continuous producer for a long time. From the oil so far produced and actually marketed from the Bell well and after satisfying myself from inside and confidential sources as to the real facts, I am prepared to believe that the well will prove to be one of the very great surprises to the oil fraternity of the country. By this I do not mean for it to be inferred that the Bell well will be a great gusher or will make thousands of barrels of oil per day, but I do believe that it will be buying leases and drilling wells in the Pecos Valley field before many months have passed.
There are many wells now drilling on the Bell or Dixieland anticline which was proven up by the Bell discovery well. There are also many other wells to be started as soon as machinery can be brought in.
I found a number of rigs arriving in Pecos each day and a steady development campaign can be counted for the next year regardless of what may transpire in the next few weeks.
I made it my business to visit several wells of the Sunshine Oil corporation and through the extreme courtesy of President Tinally and other high-class gentlemen, who areably conducting the very extensive operations for the Sunshine, I was given an opportunity to see and grasp in two weeks the things that took these pioneers two years to learn about the Trans-Pecos country. The Sunshine corporation is drilling the Victory well, a deep test on the east of Pecos. The Tinally No. 1, another deep test, is being started south of Pecos. While material is being assembled for at least four other deep wells on the acreage of this company. The Laura well, seven miles north of Pecos and between Pecos and the Bell well is the "pet" well of Sunshine people. I was present at a private conference of the officers and directors with the head driller of the Laura well, after a hard cap rock had been penetrated and a sand encountered. I do not know whether this is an oil sand or not, but I do know the driller and the Sunshine people believe they are mighty close to bringing in a wonderful oil well.
They may all be mistaken as to what the Laura well may prove to be, but I know I am not mistaken in their sincerity and belief in the results to be expected from this first deep well test in the immediate Pecos district.
There are those who have knocked Ira J. Bell and have pronounced the Bell well a frost and a fake—some even claimed the well was "salted."
There are those who also have knocked and hammered Alfred Tinally and his vast work in deep drilling for the Sunshine. But I want to tell you the man who has been on the ground and seen the work these men are doing and makes a disparaging remark is a fool, or has an ax to grind.
DONATES $1,200 *TO TUSKEGEE
(By Associated Negro Press)
Tuskegee, Ala., May 6—Prof. A.E. Malone, president of Poro College, St. Louis, Mo., was among the visitors of Tuskegee Institute during the past week.

DOUGLAS
(By Rev. Major Jones)
Mrs. Mildred Roberts left Monday for Jerome, Ariz., where she will spend two weeks visiting friends.
Rev. Edward Jones, state evangelist for the Paradise Baptist Convention, returned last week from a pleasant visit to Phoenix and the Salt River valley. While on this trip Dr. Jones purchased a stereopticon machine to be used in connection with his work. He states that the people will now be given an opportunity to read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation with pictures. Mrs. Jones will operate the machine while the Rev. Dr. Jones will preach.
Mr. Daniel Roberts left Sunday for Phoenix, where he goes as a delegate from the local Masonic lodge to assist the brethren in forming a grand lodge for Arizona. Mr. Roberts is Worshipful Master of the Masonic lodge here.
Rev. Kelly, noted Texas evangelist, who has been conducting meetings at the Second Baptist church in Phoenix, passed through the city last week en route to California.
The following ladies of Douglas met last Monday evening at Mt. Olive Baptist church and formed what is known as a Mothers' Club: Mesdames Garrison, Andrews, Jones, Branch, Smith, Bremond, Jones Kimble and McGee. This is a move in the right direction and the ladies deserve much credit for the wise step they have taken. Let no slackers be found, for they need every mother in the city and it is hoped that all will join. The object of the club is to co-operate with the teachers and work for better conditions for our children. Let's all work together and we will accomplish something. If you don't approve of the Mothers' Club, please read Proverbs, 22d chapter, sixth verse.
Mrs. J. R. Rector entertained last Sunday afternoon with a chicken dinner in honor of presiding elder, Rev. Z. Z. Johnson, who held the quarterly meeting last Sunday. Those to enjoy the dinner were: Rev. and Mrs Jones, Rev. and Mrs Maf匀nez, Mr Campbell and the honor guest. Mrs J. B. Goodby assisted Mrs. Rector in serving.
Now that our estimable Dr. J. W. Bryant is forced to give all his time to his practice, and no longer can conduct our school, the question arises as to whom we shall select to fill this important position. We need a strong, courageous, Christian man for this place. If the colored people here will put forth a little effort, they may secure a good man like Prof. H. L. Billings of St. Louis, Mo. Everyone who wants a good man here next year to take charge of our public school should write Prof. H. L. Billings, 4035 West Belle, St. Louis, Mo., asking him to send his application for the school. No home is complete without the Tribune. Why not complete your home by subscribing for the Phoenix Tribune? One year, $2.50; six months, $1.35.
Mrs. J. M. Longstreet has been confined to her bed the past week with la gripe. Dr. Bryant is the attending physician.
Sunday, May 9th, is Mothers' Day and it will be fittingly observed at the A. M. E. church at 3 p. m. Everybody invited to come and enjoy the program. If your mother is living, wear a white carnation; if she is dead, wear a red one. If you love your mother, come to the A. M. E. church Sunday afternoon. Before coming to the meeting, we suggest that you read the 44th verse of the 16th chapter of Ezekiel.
Last Sunday was quarterly meeting day at the C. M. E. church, and Rev. Z. Z. Johnson, the presiding elder, preached two strong sermons. The attendance was good and all enjoyed Rev. Johnson's discourse.
Louisville, Ky., May 6.—The Colored Orphans' Home has been taken over by the Welfare League of the city. A committee sent out by the league to investigate the home found the most urgent need of the institution to be a sanitary and well equipped building. At present the building is old, unsightly and unsanitary, offering poor accommodation to about thirty children. It will take $50,000 to erect a building to meet present needs.
Atlanta, Ga., May 6—Ground was broken at Clark University for a new $100,000 building which will be erected as an addition to the already extensive plant of the institution. The building will contain a chapel with a seating capacity of 800, quarters for the administration department and a large and splendid gymnasium.

Insurance companies and secret societies are doing much for race. Especially is this true of the latter. There are those to oppose them often and abuse the people for taking to them. They often say the church is set aside by the people for these institutions. This may be true in some cases, but generally taking it is not true. What society or organization has received liberal support from the masses as that given the church? one of our people, yea, many of them, have given more to the church in one year than they have given to other organizations five years. The church is a necessary institution and we should sport it liberally, in order that we may have a decent place in which to worship. However, we see no reason why the fraternal society should be abused. There are hundreds who would have one to nurse them by day or night were it not for the few nies they put into some benevolent society when the "sun was ning." Many would not have a penny to support them when the "rainy day" comes were it not for their connection with such institutions.
There are thousands of people who would spend all and have thing were it not for the fact that they had an opportunity of going aside twenty-five cents weekly to have it come back to them in "Fives" when they are overtaken by sickness. We say with all the emphasis we can command, LET THE SECRET ORGANIZATIONS AND INSURANCE COMPANIES STAY WITH! If you do not need them there are others among us who do them. These institutions should not conflict with the church, they are drawing on the church, let the minister get busy andow the people the place of the church as forcibly as the other now shows them the place of society.
The body is good, very good, and must have something in its world to look after it just as the church looks after the soul. The church is the greatest of them all, but it cannot do all the god that must be done. There is room for the other institutions. We wise see that there is a place for all and if they do not conti with all, they are duty bound to encourage all in some way. It there be no strife between us. Let one take the right and the other the left and travel on peacefully until the happy day when we enter that celestial home. If we live up to the teachings our fraternal societies, we shall be blessed.

Sunday, May 9th, is Mother's Day. Not only should we wear carnation to show respect for our mothers, but those who are lay from home should sit down and write their mother a letter. Many of us neglect writing our mothers as often as we would, and Mother's Day is a good time to pay her this little spect. If your mother is living, write her a letter. She will preciate it more than anything else.

"I'm sorry you had to see it. I told you I'd slaughter him."
The next moment the woman was sobbing hysterically in his arms. "I can't let you go! I can't—I can't!" She clung to him as a drowning person, clutching his hands, his arms, his neck.
"You must, Esther." He stroked her hair tenderly. "The police may be here at any moment. Get away as quickly as possible. Never mind about him—he'll be all right presently. I'll

write you care of the post office. You write me, too. Good-by, dear, good-by." With these words of parting he turned and left the house.
Fitzhugh entered a saloon and laved his hurts and washed up, afterward surveying his face very critically in a mirror. He concluded he was effectually disguised against anybody who had not seen him during the past four weeks. He left the saloon and continued northward.
In State street he stopped before an alleged restaurant—one of those discolored, unwashed places that can be scented a hundred yards off on a warm day, and where a "full meal" may be had for twenty cents—and read this sign hanging from a nail on the door-post:
"DISHWASHER WANTED."
He removed the sign, walked inside and handed it to the chemical-blonde cashier perched on a high stool between a cash register and a pyramid of toothpicks.
"Tm it," said he, favoring her with an engaging smile.
It was a sweltering, filthy place, reeking with multitudinous odors and overrun with cockroaches. The soiled dishes came in a never-ending torrent, and all day, with three respies for food, he bent at the wash-bench, his arms immersed to the elbows in black, soapy water. At eight came the night man, and he drew a breath of relief and a dollar on his weekly wage, and started home. Or, rather, he started to look for a home. He found one for two dollars a week—a depressing room, little larger than a coalbox, tucked away in the upper regions of a shoddy lodging house. He paid the grim-faced landlady half of his capital, bought a packet of tobacco and an evening newspaper, and went to his room.
He disrobed to his underclothing, and with the newspaper and a cigarette, stretched himself on the couchbed, allowing "his feet to rest on a chair. He inhaled a satisfying cloud of smoke and unfolded the news sheet—and his fingers closed rigidly on the paper; his heart seemed to stand still. What he read at a glance stretched across four columns of the front page:
MURDER MYSTERY AMONG REDS
OLAF NIKOLAY, RUSSIAN NIHILIST, FOUND DEAD IN SOUTH
The story so shriekingly heralded was told in a few paragraphs, and Fitzhugh breathed easier as he read. Substantially, it related that Nikolay had been found that afternoon by Esther's landlady, who, thinking the man drunk, had called the police. An examination showed that he was stubbed to the heart and had been dead for hours. Esther had disappeared, leaving no trace behind her.
Fitzhugh dropped the paper to the floor and stared thoughtfully at the ceiling, crushing his cigarette slowly between his fingers. Suddenly he jumped up and began pacing the floor restlessly.
"Pshaw!—she'll get away all right. Yes, yes, she'll get away all right."
On his way to work next morning he called at the post office and found, as he expected, a letter from Esther. It was written on a scrap of wrapping paper with a lead pencil, and began without preface:
If I've sinned it was because I loved you so. I did it for your sake. I am praying God that your desire for wealth may be granted you. Even though your ambition is one of which I do not entirely approve, I would willingly die that you might be thanked to how I love you. It may be a long while before you hear from me again, because I am going far away. Destroy this letter.
He burned the letter in the kitchen range and knuckled down to his opprobrious toil as on the previous day. Fitzhugh had a clearly defined reason for doing scullery work in a restaurant. It provided a stendy, if small, income; it facilitated economy, and, above all, it afforded him a secure

At eleven o'clock Pastor Gilmore preached a powerful sermon, using for his text, "Lord, who shall abide in thy Tabernacle?" Psalm 15:1. At 8 o'clock we had no room for the people. Pastor Gilmore spoke out of the depth of his heart from the text of his choice: For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good or whether it be evil. Eccl. 12:14. Collection, day and night, $22.50.
Sunday, May the 9th, Pastor Gilmore will organize a New Testament Baptist Church in Phoenix. At eleven o'clock Sunday, May the 9th, Pastor Gilmore will take for his subject: (1) What is the Church?

At 8 o'clock subject will be, Why work with the Church? (2) What the Church stands for. The Christian Church
Church has been able to justify itself in the eyes of men is evidenced by the fact of its lasting qualities. It tires out its enemies. It continues to grow in spite of all opposition. If, at times, it seems to be defeated and to lose its hold upon men, it is sure to return with greater power than ever in nation-wide reformations and revivals, because it answers to the deepest needs of the hunan heart. Come one, come all.

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING
CITY OF PURPLE DREAMS
too subtle for the casual onlooker, perhaps, but there nevertheless.
As Fitzhugh entered, casting a bored glance around the place, he was met by a uniformed negro, who said: "Mr. Quigg says tell you please, suh, step inter his private office at once, suh."
The preceding night, in Quigg's rooms in a hotel, Fitzhugh had been thoroughly apprised of the nature of his post. There had even been "rehearsals." He was therefore not unprepared for what followed his entrance into Quigg's sanctum.
Mr. Quigg, large and prosperous, held a large cigar in a large hand, and occupied a large chair before a large desk, near which sat a colorless, commonplace, inconspicuous man whose weak face was at once inquiring and impressionable. Near by a stockticker unwound its tape into a wicker waste-basket, and from a partly-open door came the furious clattering of many typewriters. And here, as in the outer room, there was an unnatural note—faint, almost indistinguishable, but discordant all the same.
As Fitzhugh entered Quigg glanced up, then leaned toward the colorless one and said something in a low voice. Not so low, however, but that Fitzhugh caught some fragments: "Pattington . . . Eastern capitalist . . . Worth ten millions if he's worth a nickel."
This was Fitzhugh's cue. Instantly his bearing changed. His tired air vanished. His eye, langu厉 supercilious a moment before, became cold, arrogant, alert. He was no longer the blase aristocrat. He was now the high-tensioned financier, whose minutes were diamond-studded. He stood at the door, a slight scowl gathering between his brows, his right thumb and second finger snapping impatiently. Thus until he received his next cue.
"Ah, good-morning, Mr. Pattington," Quigg rose, smiling deferentially, and motioned to a chair. "Won't you sit down? I shall be at leisure present."
Fitzhugh's frown grew a little heavier, his eye a little harder. "I was told I could have an interview with

you at once. My time is extremely limited. Our transaction must be consummated this moment, or not at all.
"You wish to tell me about that Queen Bee gold mine stock, do you not, Mr. Pattington?"
"Yes, yes."
"I think you said you wanted a thousand shares?—the last thousand, to be exact."
"I said so."
Mr. Quigg shook his large head, his baggy eyes twinkling. "I'm sorry, Mr. Pattington, but I'm afraid you can't have those thousand shares."
"What d'you mean?" snapped the pseudo-financier.
"This gentleman"—with his cigar Quigg indicated the colorless man, who, eyes wide, mouth agape, had been swallowing whole every word uttered—"is just about to buy 'em. You see. Mr. Pattington. I'm on to you eastern fellows. I know all about your little game. I was just telling Mr. Blake here about it. I know you're trying to get possession of the Queen Bee; I know you've had your secret agents assaying her; I know you've discovered what a fat little chunk 'o gold she really is. But I'm afraid you can't have her, Mr. Pattington. First, because the Queen Bee people don't want you eastern capitalists to own the controlling interest; and, second, because Mr. Blake here has spoken first, and, in fact, is just about to negotiate for the purchase of the remaining thousand shares. Isn't that right, Mr. Blake?"
Quigg fixed his ox-eye benevolently upon the susceptible Blake, who moistened his lips, fingered his hat, looked down, then up, and cleared his throat. "I-I guess—" He hesitated, licked his lips—and took the plunge with a rush; "Yes, that's right, Mr. Quigg. I'll take them thousand shares." Fitzhugh, keenly awaiting further cues, searched the grafter's face intently, and though he received but a bare flicker of an eyelash and the faintest suggestion of a nod toward the door, it was sufficient, and with no other comment he turned and left, indignantly slamming the door behind him. For the benefit of those in the outer room he again assumed his mien of boredom as he leisurely sauntered through and out in the corridor.
He boarded the elevator and ascended to the top floor of the building. Before an office devoid of lettering and apparently unoccupied, he stopped,
