get down to this particular case do you think you can make anything of it?" "I may be able to and Iu t. You must recollect that I know comparatively Tery little of It. It will be necessary first, 'to examine the premises thoroughly, as well as the characters and habits of all the personages who have been in any way connected with the case. These data are the foundation for my theory* and it will be essential to get all the data obtainable, or my fabric will be like the house that is built upon the sands. I am very glad to hear that your first move was to put the matter into the hands of the police." "You surprise me," I answered. "I took it for granted that you esteemed the capabilities of the official detectives very lightly." "On the contrary, the police are often most serviceable. They have been engaged upon this case now for three days. The papers say that they are following up every clue with their accustomed energy and shrewdness. Nothing could be better. The real criminal, whoever he is, hears that the police are after him. He knows from experience, their thick headedness and their propensity to blundering consequently he will be lulled into security and we will be abie to come upon him when he least expects it."

I laughed at the old man's sarcasm and at this open exhibition of contempt for his official colleagues. "They are all very well," he continued, "except when they have to use their brains, and then they are at fault, for the reason that they are deficient In the article. You hear, often, about the police having unravelled this or that mystery but, if you look it up, you will find that it was no mystery at all. When they come to a downright mystery, it never is unravelled. When they encounter a criminal, man or woman, who has brains and who deliberately sets to work to conceal his or ber crime, they fail The reason they fail is that they are deficient In the power of observation and analysis. They may have one, but they haven't the other. "The great secret of success in the detection of criminals, is the skill with v. hlch one is able to reason backwards from the effect to the cause. We usually reason that If certain causes exist, they will produce such and such effects we very seldom have occasion ti take an effect, an existing state of things, and reason back'to the unknown cause which produced It and yet, this manner of reasoning should be, and is, with practice, fully as easy as the other. Now I will bet you anything that you never saw an effect which preceeded it's •cause."

I acknowledged that I had not and doubted If there could be such a thing. "Why, a man pushing a wheel-barrow, of course ho! ho! ho! You can't dispute that. The cause is the man and the effect Is the wheel-barrow, which precedes the cause. Hut I think I've heard enough of the business for to-night. I'll sleep on It, and will go over the ground to-morrow. Can you meet me in the office of the bank to-morrow morning at 10?"

I assured him that we would be on hand «.nd we were about to take our departure, when it oc.curr.ed to me tbut 1 had not asked him about his terms. "I forgot," said I, "to ask you, about terms for an Investigation of this sort, and whether It is customary to pAy something in advance." "My terms depend a good deal upon the result. If we are successful, I shall charge you considerably more than if" we are not and, as regards an advance payment, you may as well give me ten dollars now."

I handed him a bill of the denomination ha asked for. He looked at It carefully, as if to be sure of its genuineness and then, stuffed it into his pocket. "Can't you gve m« some sort of an opinion now?" I asked. Does it seem possible to you, from what I have told you, that this thing may havo been done by some one besides Mr. McKeever?" "Yes! I can give you an opinion now. It won't be worth much, as there are many "details which are still lacking, and which

I must get hold of, before I can get to the bottom of tho affair but It will be worth, anyway, as much as the sum you have paid me. I will say that it Is Just possible that Mr. McKeever was not the criminal that, If he was not, he is or has been in great danger of bodily Injury and needs or needed your assistance: and. finally, that the thief •or thieves got into the bank, before daylight

"YOU, I SUPPOSE, ARE MISS MARIA FLANAGAN, on Thanksgiving and that the safe was robbed at. or near ten o'clock on the same morning."

When we were on our way home that night. I remarked to Wolcott: "Well! I don't know bow tt strikes you but it seems to me that your friend Benjamin is a good deal of a charlatan, and that l*vj thrown away ten dollars." "Why do you think that?" he demanded rather testily. "It seemed to me that a great deal that he said was said for effect. To use a slang and very apt expression, he seemed to be playing to the galleries. Alt that talk of his

about reasoning back from the effect to the

cause, and about observation and analysis and all that ?ort of eiap-lrap, made me think of Sherlock Holmes arl of the Chevalier and, as regards his opinion. I could have Riven as good an opinion myself. What he said about the time of the robbery was a good guess and nothing more and. as to Mr. McKeever having been In danger of bodily injury and needing our ss-in'ance. anybody would have knows (hat, •O he *urc, because, it he was Innocent, ker* must have been taken from him at .[ hi* pocket rifled for the combination. Not o« Una:, but he must have met with tout v*y. fcsvr heea kidnapped, perhaps murdered." *Tbe fact of the matter la," answered Wolcot, "that the thing stems easy enough

you, after Benjamin has said it. You are like the Spanish courtiers who concluded that it was the simplest thing in the world to make an egg stand on end, after Columbus bad shown them that they could do by smashing in one end of the egg. "The cases are not parallel," I said, and there the matter rested.

On the next morning, promptly at ten o'clock, Mr. Wolcot and I met at the office of the hanlc. Old Benjamin had preceded and was waiting for us.

He bad improved his appearance wonderfully since we had last seen him. He wore an overcoat which, I thought at the time, was borrowed, for it seemed to have been made for some one else. He bad a new hat and a pair of new, ill fitting gloves. I estimated the cost of them, mentally, and concluded that he could not have more than seven dollars remaining of my ten dollar bilL

He examined the safe and the vault carefully, as well as the windows and the doors of

the bank building. He then questioned

Curtis, the bookkeeper, about the appearance of the stranger who had come to the bank with McKeever, on Wednesday afternoon, and who had afterwards gone away with him. He asked Curtis if he thought he would know the man If he should see him again. Curts was positive he would. "Now, Mr. Curtis!" said the old fellow, and, for the first time, he acted as if he was coming to something important.

Please tell me exactly what it was in Mr. McKeever's conduct and language, that Wednesday afternoon, that made you think that he had either had a drop too much, or that there was a bee in his bonnet." "Well, he seemed to be in a hurry," said Curtis, "and to be quite nervous, but it was what he said, more than what he did, that seemed so singular. He commenced by saying: 'Dear me! that was quite an earthquake we had yesterday. I thought I felt something last night. I thought I was falling out of bed. It was a great deal worse, though, over in Boston and Vermont and through Canada. I hope yesterday was the last of it. It makes me nervous to think of these tall buildings all around us!" "Hum! Hum! What did you say to that?" asked the old Investigator. "Why, I knew it was nonsense, that there hadn't been any earthquake but he don't like to be contradicted, so I simply agreed with him. "Then he began to talk about Distillers' atock. 'There's been a great boom in Distillers' this morning,' he said 'up to 27 5-8 I want you to send that Distillers put up by Tallman as collateral, down to our broker's to-morrow morning, and have it sold at the opening.' "Well, what was there singular about that?" "I didn't think there was anything out of the way about it at the time, but when I came to talk it over with Mr. Haswell, the teller, we found that the highest point whiskey had touched that day was 9%. So, you seo he must have been away off in his mind." "Hum! He may have been, and he may not what else did he say?" "He commenced to talk about John Y. McKane. 'Here's that rascal McKane out of prison again,' be exclaimed. 'That man ought to be kept in jail, and not allowed to go around the country presiding over Sunday schools. If one of you fellows gets to presiding over a Sunday school there will be a vacancy in the bank.' "Ho! Ho! and yet tljpy thought this man McKeever was crazy," muttered Benjamin to himself then, in a louder tone: "Qentlemen! this is the most important thing that I have heard. That earthquake settles the business. My mind is about made up. Hurrah for the earthquake!" "What in thunder do you mean by that?" I demanded, with annoyance for his words sounded most silly and preposterous. "I mean that that earthquake is the key to the whole matter. Without that earthquake there wouldn't have been any robbery or no, I won't say that: but it had a good deal to do with bringing about the robbery. Hurrah! I say, for the earthquake." "Perhaps you think," I exclaimed indignantly, "that it was this earthquake that made the vault and safe fly open. You are trying to mystify us with a lot of rubbish, which you don't believe yourself. Get down and talk common sense. We have neither the time or inclination tor any such torn foolery."

Old Benjamin looked at me with what seemed a glance of superiority and of commiseration. "Walt till we are through, young man, and we will see who is talking rubbish. Yon can't understand me consequently you think It is torn foolery. It Is the way with every one, when they are brought before something which is beyond tyeir comprehension. I will tell ycu this: since hearing

wthquake. it is settled In my

mind that Mr. McKeever was innocent of the robbery of the bank. But I am through hfera, and now, if ycu like, we will go to McKeever's house."

When we got to the house, we were received by McKeever's neke. Miss Agnes Warren. She had her street garments on when we arrived, as she was just on the point of going over to Brooklyn to stay with some relatives for a day or two. She to- Into the library or sitting room and oT -tly remained with us, that she might give us any information we wanted about her uncle.

She was a tall, rather slender and very grod looking girl, of ab~ut twenty-four I £h# had a teodeet and engaging air, and hers was a look of sadness hi her face

'"i-S

She went to the door with us, and, when we had got two blocks away, we looked hack and saw her already tripping down the street in the direction opposite to the one we were taking.

When we had walked about two blocks more, Benjamin suddenly stopped short and xclaimed: "Drat it all! I've forgotten my glasses. We'll have to go back."

I was not in the best of humors. My teeth had been set on edge by the old man's manner with Agnes Warren and, besides that, it didn't seem to me that we were accomplishing anything. I walked along with my two companions in moody silence. "I want to see that girl again," said Benjamin. chuckling to himself. "That one with the freckles. She's so freckled, that It's absolutely a pleasure to look at her."

I was glad, at that moment, that I had not been foolish enough to give the old felow more than ten dollars.

Maria Flanagan let us in aad Mr. S. soon found his glasses, lying upon the library table. Where, I now think, he must have purposely left them.

While he was wiping his spectacles and adjusting them, he turned to the maid of a?I work. "Ycu, I suppose, are Miss Maria Flanagan."' "Yis Sor!" answered she, with an awkward reverence. "We've had strange goings on here, Maria! Mr. McKeever gone away, no one knows where, and the bank robbed. I suppose you've heard of it all but be was too good a man to have anything to do with It" "That's Just what I do be telling I very wan.

which showed how much the recent occurs rences had grieved and crushed her. She spoke of her uncle in terms of the greatest affection, and the tears were in her eyes when she asked old Benjamin if be, too .thought him capable of such an action. He answered her in an indifferent and heartless tone which made me quite Indignant In fact, his manner with her, all through, made me feel uncomfortable and ashamed of the company I was in

Nothing could have been clearer or more concise than her account of the day which preceded that of the robbery. Her story was so straightforward and her manner of telling it so winning that it was a pleasure to listen to her. It all seemed to produce very little effect, nevertheless, on the expert, as he broke in upon her narrative, twice or thrice, at inopportune moments, with strange questions about things which had nothing to do with what she was at the moment saying just as if the old brute were trying to set a trap for her. She was

ready and quick, however, with her an-

MOST IMPORT-

by it. He questioned her particularly about the stranger who had called on Mr. McKeever and who had accompanied him to the bank. She had never seen him before and had heard very little of the conversation. She remembered that this man had talked about getting a loan of ten thousand dollars on a shipment of agricultural Implements, and her Impression was that her uncle had gone away with him to look into the matter.

The servant,- whose name, as I have mentioned, was Maria Flanagan, had come into the room towards the close of our conversation, to bring some duals for the grate fire. As she was going out, she lingered in the door way, with feminine curiosity, to hear something of our talk. She. was a good natured, green looking Irish girl, and there was nothing peculiar about her but her freckles. I never saw, in my life before such a, freckle face. She stood with the scuttle in JSet hand, and her eyes and mouth open, ing as though she meant to have about the matter, until she was adm by her mistress in a severe but lady tone to attend to her work when she denly disappeared from view.

Miss Agnes told us that she had gone ovfer to Brooklyn oh Wednesday, an hour or so after her uncle's departure, to spend Thanksgiving with her relatives, and had not returned till Friday morning at nine o'clock. This was the reason that his absence from home had not been noticed at his house. "I've found out everything here that I want to know," said Benjamin "and I've found it out very quickly and with very little trouble, thanks to you, Miss Warren. It's a great pleasure to be able to do business with one, who has such intelligence and sense. With an ordinary person, I would have used up twice the time and wouldn't have learned half as much. You were Just going to Brooklyn as we came in. Doubtless to visit those same relatives. I may wish to see you again about this matter. Have you any objection to letting me know your address?" "Not the slightest," she answered sweetly. "My relative is Mrs. Marten, and she lives at number 220 1-2 Hicks street, on the heights."

JOHN H. SURRATT.

His Escape From Capture When He Was a Papal Zouave.

Whether Sarratt was in the city on the day of Lincoln's assassination will probably never be positively known. During his trial he attempted to prove that he was in Elxnira, N. Y., doing special sexviae for the Confederacy, and the proof which he furnished was sufhcient to convince 8 out of the 12 juror5 that he was not present and teak no part in the plot. Surratt claimed to have first learned of the murder on the morning following the assassination from the newspapers while in Elmira and on the next morning, while en route to New York city, of his suspected complicity in the plot. He fled immediately to Canada, where he remained concealed by Catholic priests for nearly five months. Leaving Canada, he went to England, tfconce to Paris, and thence to Rome, whei.v under the name of Watson, he enlist^d, in the jspua.ves of the pope., "While in the Papal zouaves he was recognized by a Canadian acquaintance, who betrayed him. On the day following his arret.., while under the guard of six men, he leaped blindly from a rocky precipice o~er 100 feet in depth, and, alighting by chance on a projecting rock 80 feet below, clambered quickly down the abyss, cscaped, reached Naples in the course of a week and sailed to Alexandria on the same vessel which carried the in? ructions to the consul there that led to 1 .s capture. He was finally brought back to the United States and tried at Washington by a civil court. The trial extended over a period of two months, and more than 200 witnesses appeared on the stand. The jury disagreed, as above stated, awl the government did not prosecute the case further. —"Four Lincoln Conspiracies," by Vic tor Louis Mason, in Century.

Women Stndenfca at St. Andrews.

The graduation ceremonial at St An* drews this year was memorable for the bestowal of the M. A. degree upon four women students, to say nothing of the capping of "Ian Maolaren" as D. D. In the course of his remarks at the conclusion of the ceremony Prinoipal Donaldson drew attention to one remarkable feature whiuh demanded special notice. "Last year," he observed, "one woman student received the degree of master of arts, but her attendance and course of studies were exceptional. This year they had conferred the degree upon several who had regularly gone through all their classes, doing the ordinary work along with the other students. The attendance of women students at regular classes had been deemed by many a doubtful experiment. But the women students had justified the bestowal of the privilege upon them. They had exercised a healthy influence on all. They had worked with great diligence, and the list of distinctions whioh they had gained was proof that they could gain the highest eminence, only in languages, but in

Funeral Plants.

The olive, oak, laurel, myrtle, rosemary, cypress, amaranth and parsley are all funeral plants among the Greeks and Romans. "To be in need of parsley" was a Greek euphemism indicating the death of the person so described. An Athenian army once marching against the Lacedemonians was stampeded on its way out of the city by meeting two mules laden with parsley, the omen being that the whole army would soon be in need of that article.

The Women Voted.

Woman's suffrage was tried at the annual elections in the Episcopal churches in Oakland, Cal., recently and proved a great success. The Women turned out in large numbers to exercise their new privilege and interested themselves greatly in the elections. They did not in any case form a woman's party arrayed against the men, but voted for the regular nominees.

How alJttle Baby Girl Boiled the Clouds Away.

^"Of course a woman will naturally see the dark side of everything when tortured by some form of female disease, which her doctor cannot or does not relieve.

No wonder she is melancholy when head and back ache, pains run through the whole body and loins, nerves are weak, stomach out of order, digestion poor, _____ sense of' 0 fullness and bear-ing-down, poor sleep and appetite, always weak and tired, irregular menstruation, whites, etc.

She probably is not so fortunate as to know that all female ailments are indicated by these never failing symptoms, and are controlled by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound} all female weaknesses quickly disappear by its use. It has been the thinking woman's safeguard for twenty years, and druggists sell large quantities of it because it can be reliod upon.

Still another woman speaks:T I wish you would publish my name with your testimonials. I want every one to know that your Vegetable Compound, has made me well and strong. I sing its praises all the time. When I was first married I was very weak and had female troubles badly Oh, I was so weary, sick and melancholy, but the Vegetable Compound built me up, and now I have a dear baby girl, and I am so happy. No home is complete without a dear little baby and Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to roll the clouds away."—MRS.
