Cpyrlsht. 1909. by American fraH Auo-
elaUoa
IT was a dull midsummer day In
toe city room. Standlsn, the
city editor, after vainly seek
ing for assignments to keeD
bnsy the half dozen idle reporters, had
cut the knot by driving them into the
street with orders to stay out until
each had found a story.
It may be guessed that tbo Gazette
was not a metropolitan newspaper.
But, while our lltlo city did not give
herself airs, she boasted thrcednlly pa
pers, of which tbo Star and the Ga
aette were published In the afternoon.
The rivalry betwoen them was naf
urally keen. The stnr had beaten us
badly on a local story the. week be
fore, and it was common knowledge
in the office that Staodlsh was burning
to redeem his reputation as tbo clev
erest newspaper man In town. There
seemed little likelihood that he would
do it on a day like this
A newcomer on the staff of the On
eette and a beginner in newspaper
work. I had thus far found tho life
singularly lacking in that excitement
which Is popularly snpposed to be the
accompaniment of the reporter's ca
reer. On this particular day I was
working In the "graveyard." This Is
not as ominous as it sounds. Tho
"graveyard" in newspaper parlance is
tbo cabinet which contains tho obit
uarles of all persons whose decease is
Itkely to require extended notice,
These must, of course, bo kept op to
date, and I was adding to them from
various sources and filing the complet
ed notices away In the cabinet
It was a tiresome business, and
was glad when Billy Moulton, our
"star" reporter, came in Just after the
general exodus. Moulton and I were
alumni of the same college, and this
fact, with some other things that we
bad in common, had made us as good
friends as was consistent between the
"star" and the "cub.1

"What's the matter? lias anything

Mmilton. without replying, handed
h receiver to him as he tame for

ly, making rapid notes on the pad by
Ibis side. A few sharp questions, and
he hung tip the receiver and hastened
to his desk.

I walked down the street toward the
bank in a very contented frame of
mind. Before I had gone two blocks
I met Moulton. I knew from his face
that his errand had not turned out
well, but before he would say any
thing abont It he Insisted on henrmg
now i had fared. He congratulated
me heartily on what be called my "ten
strike," and then. In answer to my
questions, he earn:
"I havent a line. I couldn't drag an
intelligent word out of the old fossils.
They wouldn't admit that Thompson
had gone or that any money was miss
ing or that there was any trouble of
any sort, if 1 had accused them of
being alive I don't believe they would
have admitted it." Ills disgust went
beyond words, and we walked along
for a moment In silence. Then, at
Moulton'a suggestion, we turned down
toward police headquarters.
"I simply can't go back withoui
something," be said. "Staodlsh Is
backing his reputation on this story,
and for mo to fall down like this"
As wo mounted the steps of the gray
old building I notloed that Sergeant
Mullaly was on duty at the desk. He
was an old friend of Moulton'a, and as
be saw us he beckoned to him ex

"But how?" I askea

Wo hurried Into tbe waiting room,
which contained desks for reporters.
At one of them sat a yooth with .bis

Then be went to tho door of tbe chiefs

I felt very uncomfortablo and alto

I was not responsible for tho success
or failure of this youth, but I was too
fresh from the same struggle not to
have a fellow feeling for him and
keen regret for the discomfiture that
would bo delayed only long enough for
his city editor to find out bow he had
failed in this case.
"What are you at headquarters for?"
I asked abruptly, more from a need of

"The city editor sent me to 'cover'
the place, whatever that may mean."
"Didn't he give yon any definite In

advice about doing his work. Imagine
