MARGARET MEDBURY'S MANAGERS.

(Continued.) behind him his confusion was for a mo ment quite embarrassing to both. Final ly the young man managed to say: "I supposed I was alone, Miss Medbury, and unconsciously spoke aloud. I meant what I said, however, and am here this evening to offer you my services m any way you may deem most efficient. I find you need some information concern ing the details of the office. I can im part that, and can then bear any mes sage you may wish to send to Simmons, who is naturally the successor of the business manager you have discharged. Mr. Simmons is an honest man, and you will doubtless by his aid become a suc cessful journalist. There is no reason why a woman cannot run a newspaper successfully. I wish to report to you that one of the brothers at least— Mr. Arthur Blite— decides to remain with you, whether or no," and Jack proceeded to relate his experience m "pumping" the business manager, to the great amusement of the young lady. Finally, however, she became thoughtful again, and bending toward Jack said: "You speak of Mr. Simmons? He is not my choice. You will pardon me, but I have chosen a man to succeed Mr. Blite whom you will probably advise me against. Your advice, however, m this respect will be unavailing, for I am determined. You are the man, John Hazeley, and I will take no refusal." Jack drew a long breath and looked as if he had received an offer to go as missionary to the South Sea islands. Fi i nally his mouth flew open, and he be ! gan, "But, Miss Mar" "No buts at all. Not a word of objec tion. I won't hear it. There's some thing tells me you are the man. It told me so an hour ago, and I went to Mc- Collum, papa's lawyer, but he is m poli- 1 tics up to his ears and didn't want to say a word against the Blites or mix up m any quarrel among newspaper men. I think ho will know his mistake before he's a year older. He did say, however, that you were practical and a bright young man. I want you to take charge at once. I can trust you fully. Will you do me this favor?" and the honest blue eyes were looking earnestly into his face. The poor fellow weakened. It was so unexpected and he had not the proper confidence m himself, but every objec tion he offered was answered by argu ments that he could not controvert. "You know that when Mr. Blite failed to hold an advertiser they always sent you around to talk with him, and I heard father declare not three months ago that your blunt arguments and businesslike talk did more with the average man than all of Mr. Blite's soft solder. Yon know they depended on you to settle the strike last spring. Iv short you must not refuse me," and before he left his young employer at ten o'clock that even ing he had consented, and they had done considerable planning for the future.

CHAPTER IV. __

He saw that Arthur carried a hundlc. As Jack reached the public square on his way home and gazed across it the night was so dark he could hardly dis tinguish the outlines of The Herald office, which stood over opposite the church, m the deeper shadow of which he paused to light a cigar. As he was feeling m his pocket for a match he noticed that the three lamps along down the street next The Herald office were not burning — a thing very unusual — and was at the same instant somewhat startled to Bee a flash of light m The Herald's business office instead of the ) steady gleam of the gas jet Simmons I always left burning. As he stood — match m one hand and cigar m the other— he was still further startled to see the peculiar wink of a bullseye lamp as the slide was shot. Dropping the cigar and match into his pocket together he bent down, and securing a smooth round cobble tiptoed across the street, secreting himself behind a tobacconist's sidewalk sign out on the curb nearly opposite the office. He could see the police officer pacing along up the street a block or more away where the lamps were lighted as usual and would have called to him but for fear of giving a needless alarm. Crouching still lower and gazing stead ily into the office, he was soon rewarded by another flash of light as the slide of the bullseye was slowly opened, and then beheld a hand on the combination knob of the safe door. One glance was enough. One hand m all the world was as slim and peculiar between joints as Arthur Blite's, and if that was not pecu liarity enough a seal ring of peculiar pattern clinched the proof. At this in stant Jack heard the bolts shot, the door was swung open, and out of the safe came a cashbook and journal. That was enough, and drawing back his powerful arm the watcher prepared to deliver a "curve" toward that safe door that would have cracked it, but for a soft voice within fifteen feet of him and ap parently m the open office door. "There's no one coming. Use your lamp, Arthur, and don't fail to get the right books." The bullseye was at this instant flashed toward the office door, and he caught a
