A SILENT MAN-At late hour few
nights since as vigilant police officer was
pacing his beat and keeping his eyes open
for any thief lurking about the street, he saw
that which quickened his pulse and seemed to
give promise of an adventure. Across the
street was clothing store in the rear end OF
which the gas had been left burning. TIE
room was half shrouded in darkness, but
from where the officer stood he could see the
half revealed form Of what seemed to be a
burglar, standing among piles of clothing.
After considerable maneuvering to approach
the doors without alarming his game, the
knight of the star succeeded, only to find that
the object of his suspicion was but we'll
dressed dummy, into whose head no dishonest
thought had ever entered.
