By H. K. SHACKLEFORD
CHAPTER I.–"I'll Shoot!"
Mr. Barron, the rich banker in Broad street, was seated at his desk in his private office one day when the door was opened by the porter, who said:
"There's a newsboy out here who says he must see you, sir."
"Go and tell him to let you know what he wants. If it's a situation, tell him we have none vacant."
