FIFTH INSTALLMENT
CHAPTER XVIII. '
A New Intruder.
The keen senses of Roleau, schooled
In peril, told him of some hidden dan
ger the very tenseness of the situa
tion warning him. ' Turning, he saw
the upraised weapon, and in a flash
uiu-.v num ius own powermi arm
had sent It flying through the window.
It fell clinking on the floor at the feet I
of Count Sachio and his friends. Kit- :
ty, rescued from the danger which
she had not realized, sprang back. An
instant later Roleau had grappled
with the intruder. ;
I tearing the sound of this encoun-
ter, Count Sachio and his companions
sprang at the intervening door, broke
it m. They found two strange men
engaged in an encounter whose cause
they could not guess, but both of
whom undoubtedly were intruders in
this place, and who, therefore, might
be regarded as enemies. . j
"The American!" exclaimed Sachio,
as now he saw also the young girl,
who was endeavoring as best sh.-?
might to give assistance to Roleau
in his struggle with the stranger. ;
' Quick, excellency, run!" exclaimed ;
Roleau. j
The strange man was not easily ;
to be disposed of, but gave even the
V.I J! . .
i-utr.c noieau an He liked to do to
handle him. Meantime Sachio flung
himself upon Roleiu, his comrades did
as much 3. ho otrnjj r.
In the melee, which slipped from
place to place upon the floor, Sachio
let fall the little bag with the king's
half coin in his excitement he had
forgotten that he still had It in his
hand. The stranger, whose shifty
eyes caught everything, saw the bag
as it lay upon the floor.
Working gradually towards the
place where the little bag lay, now
underfoot, now scuffed asid hv tho
c-uiusgung men, me stranger managed
to trip and throw that one of Sachio's
friends who pressed him most closely,
They fell directly before the packet.
ov. i.iiy, ins ion? nana or tne stranger
reacned out and caught it up,
"here remained for him no more
relish fcr the fight. An instant later,
his crossed arm against the throat of
his assailant, he broke away, flung
through the opr r i vJow and left the
others to- shift as they might.
Roleau. still held in the powerful
grasp cf Count Sachio himself, strug
gled fir-ions1, all the time calling to
Kitty to make her own escape.
"Roleau!" called Kitty. "Quick, he
ho has it he Las stolen it. We must
fellow Lim!" And Roleau did his
test to shake himself free.
"Net so fast, net so easily," panted
Sachio, whose stern grip still held
Rcleau's collar. "You will not get
eff just yet. Who are you, to come
prowling about my place thieves
against thieves? You shall tell me
What ail this means."
"Go, excellency, run!" panted Ro
leau, still to his mistress. "Leave
them to me. I'll come when I can."
Kitty turned, knowing that she
must ect quickly or be taken prisoner
herself.
x'onow me, Roleau!" she cried.
He Broke Away and Flung

! she had seen him elsewhere before
: now. Where could that have been?
i Ransacking her memory she conclud
j ed that he must have been some one
j of the band of banditti who had sur
prised b?r and her companions ia the
desert.
Trustifig to fortune to bring her
aid, she ran forward in the general
direction which she supposed the man
had taken. She passed from the flnnr
.
of the gallery, which held no trace of
footprints to the softer ground where
she might see the trail, and caught it
novr. He was running in great leap3
towards the edge of the forest, where
the road came in. Yonder lay the
trail to Gretzhoffen. He seemed bound
for that. Yes she presently heard a
sound of horse's hoofs,
"Horses!" thought Kitty to herself,
recalling the stables where some of
Sachio's mounts were kept indeed,
she doubted not that some might be
saddled and waiting in the yard. It
was true an instant later her own
flying hoofbeats pursued those how
lessening in the distance. And as
she fled Kitty left a trail,
As for Roleau, his faithful heart
was wellnigh broken when, having
seen his mistress follow his advice
and make her escape, he found him-
self in spite of all unable to join her
in the pursuit of the escaping thief
who had their coin. . The grasp of
Sachio upon him did net relax and
now others re-enforced their leader.
"Ah, well, messieurs," he said grin
run::, r.t length., "you have the argu-
"Search him!" exclaimed Sachio.
"I have lost the coin. It was here. It
is gone he has It about him some
where." The companions of the count com
plied, but could make nothing of the
search, Roleau stoutly asserting that
he knew nothing of it and had it not
in his possession.
"I dropped it on the floor in the
Scuffle." exrl.-iimPfi Saehir. "finrolv
this man must have it, or it has wings!
I had it in my hand but now, this verv
moment. That American surely she
is a witch. Did she take it, fellow?
Tell me?
He turned furiously upon
Roleau.
"Monsieur, how can I tell?" replied
the latter.
At last, however, there came the
sound of one driving furiously.
"On guard, gentlemen!" exclaimed
Sachio. "We do not know who comes
---I hope it may be Rudolph."
It was indeed this missing stranger
the man who had been left bound in
Frederick's apartments.
It should be understood now that
when Count Frederick had returned
to his own apartments and found his
private room occupied by a man who
evidently had been there for no good
purpose a man left trussed up and
bound by yet other intruders he had
had rome parley with the helpless in
truder in the way of learning what
had been the cause of his strange
plight.
"I know wou, fellow," said he. "You

Winston-Salem. N, C. Now Manufac
tures More Tobacco Products Thau
Any other city in iite World.
Following are extracts from an ad
dress delivered by Col. A. D. Watts,
Collector of Internal Revenue for the
Fifth District of North Carolina, at a
smoker given by The Twin City Club,
Winston Salehi, February. 4, 1016
Winston gftlem is supplying. One
fourth of ail the chewing and smoking
tobacco consumed in the United States
besides exporting vdst quantities to
foreign lands. This statement is taken
from the report of the Commissioner
of Internal Jteventie for the
first quarter of the present fiscal year
and from private advices from Wash
ington, as to the second quarter, Which
ended December 3lst, last.
''Your city is making one-seventh
of all tobacco products chewing and
smoking tobacco, cigars, cigarettes and
snuff manufactured in the United
States. Your manufacturers are paying
on an average about $37,000 a day re
venue taxes to the government and
the amount is increasing from month
to month. When your government
building, much the handsomest in the
State, was completed last July at a
cost of $250,000 your newspapers made
the statement that the taxes paid in
your city to Uncle Sam for the first
light days of its oecupancy would pay
for it. Since September, it has taken
jnly a fraction over seven average days
collections nere to equal its cost. So
far this week, Mr. Cranford has taken
in $206,428.50. I predict that before
1916 shall have ended your average
weekly payments to the government
on tobacco will more than pay for thit
magnificent building, leaving the col
iections for the other fifty one weeks
is clear profit to the government.
"Winston Salem is shipping on ail
average each week day to all parts of
this country and to foreign lands at
least $150,000 of tobacco products.
"In conclusion, Winston Salem man
ufactures more tobacco, all tobaccc
products are taken into this state
ment, than any other city on earth,
little and big. Industrially, she is eas
ily first in North Carolina, population
considered, first in America and I be
lieve, in the world; socially, a never
failing delight to her friends.''

team here 011 the query: "Resolved,
That the United States Government
should adopt the policy of greatly en
larging the Navy." For the local

ther Purrington will uphold the affirm
ative and for the visitors Messrs. Ow
ens Dupre and John Co burn will pro

The judges of the contest are:
Messrs. Stuart Smith, W. M. Bond
and Battle Hardison.
The public is invited to hear the
argument, which takes place in the
graded school auditorium at the hour
above mentioned.
Base Ball.
Since the last issue of the Common
wealth, numerous requests have been
heard from the citizens of the town
to call on the local fans through the
columns of this paper regarding a base
ball club as an institution here during
the summer months.
Several have suggested that a stock
company be organized, with a capital
of about $400 or $5 )0, and sell shares
at $1 each. A number have signified
their willingness to take as many as
ten or twelve shares of the stock and
there is little doubt but that the other
could be gotten up without trouble. -
A park site has already been prom
ised, as was told in this paper last is
sue, and the fencing would cost only
about $150 or $200, the balance of the
money would go toward financing the
team during the season.
As yet the Commonwealth has had
no expressions through the "Open
Forum ' ' regarding this, but several
articles will appear shortly.
' What do you say- men? Let's- get
together and . ave n. live, winning ball
club here this summer.

WOOD FLOtJB.
Large Quantities Used y Makers of
Dynamite and L&iOleum.
(Forest Service, U. S.;,Agr. Dept.)
Washington, March 3fe More than
twenty thousand toas f .wood flour
valued at $300,000, are 'iised annually
in the United States ia rifO widely dif
ferent industries, the manufacture of
dynamite and the manufacture of inlaid
linoleum.
Wood flour is also usd in making
composition flooring, eatmeal paper,
and in several other industries. It
forms one of the mean' by which the
huge waste product of our lumber
mills is beginning to find some better
means qf disposal than the - burner.
Since 'a total of 30,000,006 cords-of such
waste is produced eachyear at ' saw
mills in the UnitedTStateSjj of which
lbout one-half goes iat the furnaces
as fuel while thetijyr'iurned as
reruse to get ra or there is . no
which can develop 'ways of ' turning
this waste to account.
All wood flour-using industries re
mire a white or very light cream-col-jred
flour having good absorptive pow
ers. The wood species that mav he
used are confined to the light, non
resinous conifers, and the white broad
heaved woods like poplar. Spruce,
white pine and poplar are the species
-lost used. Mill waste,5 free from bark,
r'urnishes much of the raw material
or making wood flour.
For use in dynamite, the trade do-
nands are" said to require a white
wood flour, since the freshness of dy
aamitc stock is indicated by a light
color. Dynamite flour must also be
rery absorptive, so there will be no
leakage of - nitro glycerine from the
Jnished product. Wheat flour will re
fuse and infusorial earth have also
been used in dynamite making, but
wood flour has practically replaced
them in ii.is country.
In the manufacture of linoleum, ei
ther woo ', or cork flour is used. The
flour is lu.xed with a cementing ma
terial, spread out on burlap and rolled
or pressed to a uniform thickness. The
cement is the expensive constituent.
Cork linoleum is the cheaper because
!ess cement is necessary. The patterns
are printed on, leaving a dark base.
For inlaid or straightline linoleum,
wood flour is used exclusively. Cork
linoleum is always dark, and slightly
more elastic than that produced from
wood flour. The wearing qualities are
about the same.
Two methods of producing wood
flour- are practiced; one using mill
stones, the other steel burr rollers to
pulverize the wood. The litter re
quires only one-fourth as much power
to operate as the former and was de
veloped on the Pacific Coast to handle
saw-dust as a raw material. The mills
of Norway which produce much of the
European wood flour are of the stone
type.
. Wood flour mills are scattered over
the country from Maine to California
wherever the proper combination of
wood and water power is available, and
the domestic wood flour competes with
the Norwegian product which, before
the European war, was delivered at
Atlantic ports for $12.50 to $15 per
ton.
Twenty-Four Cases Pneumonia.
According to Doctors Kitchin, Smith
and Morgan, there are 24 cases of
pneumonia in Scotland Neck and vicin
ity. As yet no cases have proved fa
tal, but several patients are seriously
sick. The fickle changes in the weath
er during the last few days, and the
lack of plenty of fresh air in the sleep
ing room, have precipitated such a
large number of cases, according to
the physicians. . ' - v
The Commonwealth could not locate
Dr. H. . I. Clark when. this item was
gotten up, but it is expected that he
tC"o has some cases of pneumonia un
der his care.
