Doing Detective Work for Himself.
Mr.. Marks Taylor, the smpIoye of the
chemical works in Fair Haven who disap-
peared for a few days this week and was
thought to have absconded. has again ap-
peared upon the Fair Haven horizon. He
says that he did not abscond but was looking
for the man who robbed him of $45 on
Tuesday evening of this week, while he was
in saloon and under the influence Of liquor.
Haspent most of the week in the city and

man who robbed him. Mr.. Taylor exhibited
faith in human nature that was
really touching. by remarking that he ex-
pected to find the man, and that when he had
found him and told him that he owed the
money for board and that he had sick wife
and had lost his situation in the chemical
works the thief would be moved in his heart
and would return the money. The search
was unsuccessful, however, and Mr.. Taylor
has returned to his home. He says that he
has got through with liquor, aud will en-
deavor to retrieve his losses in some way.
