THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND., SATURDAY, OCT. 22, 1922.

DAY NURSERY DRIVE ASKS PUBLIC TO GIVE ONLY USELESS WASTE Fearing that 8ome persona may have been misled in the distribution of sacks In the Day Nursery Waste campaign members of the committee in charge of the drive Saturday reiterated their anouncement that anyone who did not get a sack can put old rags in any kind of a sack or tie them securely in a bundle. It has been requested that magazines and papers be placed in separate bundles. This is asked because more money is received by the pound for magazines than for paper. No sacks mill be collected before

Thursday, Oct. - 27, and persons who contribute are asked not to put their

bags of waste out to be collected before that date. Money realized from the sale of the waste will be used to defray expenses

of nurses at the nursery, which per

forms a useful function in the community by caring for the children of

mothers who must work, and, in addi

tion to providing a day home for the tots, teaches them how to be useful in

the home and inculcates habits of

cleanliness and hygiene.

The campaign has been endorsed by

every person who has been approach

ed and has been particularly commended by Fire Chief Miller, who points out that in addition to helping the children, generous contributions will reward the givers in that they will be

running much less risk of fire by clear

ing their houses and premises of

waste.

TOWNSHIP ASSESSORS PRAISED FOR WORK BY STATE OFFICER

William Matthews, county assessor of Wayne county, has received a letter

from the state house at Indianapolis, commending the township assessors of this county for their excellent work. Wayne county is one of half the coun

ties in Indiana where the slate officials did not find it necessary to

raise the assessment over the mark set by the local officials. The letter follows: Indianapolis. July 29. 1921. We Matthews, County Assessor, Richmond, Indiana. My Dear Sir: The township assessors and the members of the board of review' in your county as well as yourself as ounty assessor have my felicitations for their efforts in getting a fair assessment of personal property in your county. This year was difficult for taxing officers all over the state and I am particularly gratified with the fairness of the officers in jour county who have endeavored to be "fair 'and square" and give each property owner u square deal. If I have in any way aided you I am pleased but my thankfulness is to your local officers who have performed an almost thankless task so fairly that your county is one of the half of the counties In Indiana that did its duty without action of the state board. Please express my appreciation to each one who helped in the work as you may meet them. Best wishes. N. K. TODD. Special Representative. Mr. Tillman deserves a large amount of credit and I am very thankful we can have his help.

obscurity which the case may still present." Our visitors arrived at the appointed time, but it was a quarter to four before my friend put in an appearance. From his expression as he entered, however, I could see that all had gone well with him. "Any news. Inspector?" "We have got the boy, sir." "Excellent, and I have got the men." "You have got them!" we cried, all three. "Well, at least I have got their identity. This so-called Blessington is, as I expected, well known at headquarters, and so are his assailants. Their names are Biddle, Hayward and Moffat." "The Worthington bank gang," cried the inspector. "Precisely," said Holmes. "Then Blessington must have been Sutton." "Exactly," 6aid Holmes. "Why, that makes it as clear as crystal," said the inspector. But Trevelyan and I looked at each other in bewilderment. "You must surely remember the great Worthington bank business," said Holmes. "Five men were in it these four and a fifth called Cartwright. Tobin, the caretaker, was murdered, and the thieves got away with seven thousand pounds. They were all five arrested, but the evidence against them was by no means conclusive. This Blessington or Sutton, who was the worst of the gang, turned informer. On his evidence Cartwright was hanged and the other three got fifteen years apiece. When they got out the other day, which was some years before their full term, they set themselves, as you perceive, to hunt down the traitor and to avenge the death of their comrade upon him. Twice they tried to get at him and failed: a third time, you see, it came off. Is there anything further which I can explain, Dr. Trevelyan?" "I think you have made it all remarkably clear," said the doctor. "N6 doubt the day on which he was so perturbed was the day when he had seen of their release in the newspapers." "Quite so. His talk about a burglary was the merest blind." "But why could he not tell you this?" "Well, my dear sir. knowing the vindictive character of his old associates, he was trying to hide his own identity from everybody as long as he could. His secret was a shameful one, and he

could not bring himself to divulge it. However, wretch as he was, he was still living under the shield of British law. and I have no doubt. Inspector, that you will see that, though that shield may fail to guard, the sword of justice is still there to avenge." Such were the singular circumstances in connection with the Resident Patient and the Brook Street Doctor. From that night nothing has

been seen of the three murderers by the police, and it is surmised at Scotland Yard that they were among the passengers of the ill-fated steamer Norah Creina, which was lost some years ago with all hands upon the Portugese coast, some leagues to the north of Oporto. The proceedings against the page broke down for want of evidence, and the Brook Street Mystery, as it was called, has never

until now been fully dealt with. 1b aay;

The Resident Patient

By SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE Copyright, 1921. by Harper & Bros. Published by special arrangement with The McClure Newspaper Syndicate.

"The young imp cannot be found," said Dr. Trevelyan; "the maid and the cook have just been searching for him." Holmes shrugged his shoulders. "He has played a not unimportant part in this drama," said he. "The three men having ascended the stairs, which they did on tiptoe, the elder man first, the younger man second, and the unknown man in the rear " "My dear Holmes!" I ejaculated. "Oh, there could be no question as to the superimposing of the footmarks. I had the advantage of learning which was which last night. They ascended, then, to Mr. Blessington's room, the door of which they found to be locked. With the help of a wire, however, they forced round the key. Even without the lens you will perceive, by the scratches on this ward, where the pressure was applied. "On entering the room their first proceeding must have been to gag Mr. Blessington. He may have been asleep, or he may have been so paralyzed with terror as to have been unable to cry out. These walls are thick, and it is conceivable that his shriek, if he had time to utter one, was unheard. "Having secured him. H is evident to me that a consultation of some sort was held. Probably it was something in the nature of a judicial proceeding. It must have lasted for some time, for it was then that these cigars were smoked. The older man sat in that wicker chair; It was he who used the cigar holder. The younger man sat over yonder; he knocked his ash off against the chest of drawers. The third fellow paced up and down. Blessington, I think, sat upright in the bed. but of that I cannot be absolutely certain. "Well, it ended by their taking Blessington and hanging him. The matter

was so prearranged that It is my belief that they brought with them some sort of block or pulley which might serve as a gallows. That screw-driver and those screws were, as I conceive, for fixing it up. Seeing the hook, however, they naturally saved themselves the trouble. Having finished their work they made off, and the door was barred behind them by their confederate." We had all listened with the deepest interest to this sketch of the night's doings, which Holmes had deduced from signs so subtle and minute that, even when he had pointed them out to us, we could scarcely follow him in his reasonings. The inspector hurried away on the instant to make inquiries about the page, while Holmes and I returned to Baker Street for breakfast. "I'll be back by three," said he, when we had finished our meal. "Both the inspector and the doctor will meet me here at that hour, and I hope by that time to have cleared up any little
