Now the idea which had struck Tom
with so much force grew out of the fact
that he had been bothered to know how
he could identify his man, after he had
found where a suit of clothes of the kind
of cloth a sample of which he had in his
pocket had been purchased. While re-
volving many schemes in his mind. he
had seen in the windows of a store
number of Photographic cameras for the
use of amateurs.
The thought flashed over his mind that
he could have picture taken of Foun-
tain, unknown TO that gentleman.
Tom had friend engaged as a leader
writer on the paper on which he was
employed, who had been greatly taken
by the amateur Photographic craze. and
who had become quite proficient in max
ing instantaneous pictures.
Fired with this idea Tom pushed his
way rapidly to Printing House square.
and, dropping into place which was at
once an eating house and beer saloon.
and where he was in the habit of meet
ing his Shadow, summoned messenger
whom he sent TO his friend requesting to
see him Immediately.
He looked about for his Shadow. He
was there, deeply interested in the study
of the various advertisements of the rail-
road lines hanging on the walls. with
sandwich in one hand. a mug of beer in
the other, and one eve on Tom.
Seeing Tom nod TO him, he walked
over.

He smiled as he advanced and said:

Holbrook assented, Il confess to the
shock on my side
Il hardly expected 70 see you so soon

Holbrook bowed courteouslv for an

perfect control of himself

brook with smile

The old man unused while and Hol-
brook studied his face. The more he
studied it the less he liked it. There
was blended weakness and strength in it
and the want of those strong, rugged
lines which gave character to old
age. The lines began strongly but
seemed to run into nothing, leaving an
impression of stiffness. The eyes were
cunning, not frank, though there was
unquestionably an assumption of frank
ness in his manner.
