CHAPTER VI

IT PUZZLED THE JUDGE.
While the little party was on its way
to the abode of justice, Drane had time
to bring his mind to one definite and
valuable conclusion. His misfortunes
on a similar occasion had been aggra
waited by his own injudicious utterances
He resolved to keep still this time, ever
if he had to hire somebody to gag him
1t was little that he knew about New
York except as to its pavements and it:
distances. and both these he was prepared
to condemn as emphatically as would
any reformer. He had not supposed
that his second arrest took place in the
same judicial district in which his frs,
came to pass. BY reason of his rehabili.
tation his nerves had maintained a faiI
poise during the short journey to the
court, but when he saw the ornate tower
of Jefferson market ahead of him and
then realized that he was bound to ap.
pear before the same justice who had
lectured him but day or two previous
IL, they fell to quivering ominously.
Nevertheless he kept up appearances
and entered the court room with an air
of dignified self-possession.
The bulk Of the days business had
been cleared away, so he and his COM
panion in distress were summoned at
once to the bar.
What is this case?" demanded the
judge.
This man." responded the police
man, jerking his thumb towards the
ragged tramp, accuses this gentleman
of stealing his clothes"
The judge glanced in surprise from
one to the other of the parties, and
he looked sharply at Lawrence as if the
face reminded him of somebody. Then
he ordered the complainant to step up
and asked him his name.
Lawrence Drane," was the cool reply.
Again the Judge seemed to be trying
to recall something out of the dim re-
cesses Of his memory, but the effort
failed. and he composed himself to lis
ten to the compliments story. The
false Drane told exactly what had hap
pened at the bath-house, not deviating
in the slightest particular from the
truth, except as his story implied his
claim to ownership in the clothes which
the real Drane had on.

fore?" asked the judge.

Lawrence didn't know it and she had
not as yet discovered him. Perhaps hel
influence had something to do with in
ducing him to falter an affirmative to
the judges question. The reply stimu.

It instantly occurred to Lawrence
that here was an opportunity to make
full explanation of his situation. but
so much trouble had come to him from
such attempts that he renewed his de-
termination to say absolutely nothing.
| So he responded:
Il decline to say"
This surprised and angered the Judge
and he ordered the officer to search
Lawrence. They took from him all his
papers, his money and his watch. They

CHAPTER V.-CoNTINUl

CHAPTER N.-CONTISCED.
As Drane emerged from the building
the first thing he saw was the blue coat
of which he was in search. A burly
member of the force stood on the edge
of the sidewalk, as if placed there by
the hand of justice.
How wonderful are the workings of
chance" thought Drane, as he took in
a: q glance the advantages of the situa.
ton. My luck changed from the in
slant my eyes rested on that ticket"
He decided not to call the officer into
the bath so long as he showed no signs
of going away, but to wait till the thief
came out, clothed in his rags. to meet a
fate still worse. He chuckled with a
mean satisfaction at the thought. His
experience should have taught him to
pity the poor fellow. but it didn't.
There can be no real sympathy between
costly apparel and the habiliments of
poverty. The brotherhood of man can
never be accomplished except by put
ting all the world in one uEvarying uni
form.
So Drane stood there waiting for his
revenge Suuueuly tnerc WAS nuDOuo
at the door. An attendant rushed out
hurriedly and looked about. Behind
him Drane could see the thief expostu-
lating with the man at the desk. Then
the attendants eyes fell upon Drane.
ARREST that man." said he to the po-
liceman; ''he has stolen a mans clothes
in our bath!'
''Come with me, SIR" said the officer,
laying his hand upon Drane's shoulder.
The blunderbuss of vengeance had
shot both ways again, as is the habit of
that Anticipated weapon.

NEW YORK HOUSE-TOPS.

fhe Roofs of tho Big City Are Put to
Many Curious Uses.
The other dag the newspapers told the
story of how some girls on one roof flirt-
ed with young man on another roof,
to go from his roof to theirs, slipped and
fell-into eternity. To how many, even
in New York. did that news paragraph
suggest the important part the roofs
play in this city. We have all heard Of
the roofs of Jerusalem, much the finest
features of the town, no doubt-yet the
whole of Jerusalem is trifie compared
to the life on the roofs of New York. In
place where land is valued as it is on
this island. there is great city under
ground and great fraction of the life
of the place is spent on the roofs. In
the summer the tenement roofs are the
pleasure resorts of the poor. Begin
ming at Baxter street and continuing
north to Harlem. on the east side, the
demand for sleeping places on the cool
and breezy roofs is so great that only
first corners find places-the tardy ones
find no sleeping room left. 1t has al
ways been astonishing to me that no
artist makes and no journal prints a pic
ture of midsummerni2ht scene on a
roof, say in Baxter. or Forsyth or Null
berry street. The crowding of the
sleepers, their light attire, particularly
that of the men and boys, and the dis
comfort the scene suggests would open
the eyes of Chatter's readers TO condi-
tions they never dreamed had existence.
Then. too. the tenement roofs are
greatly in use as bathrooms on early
summer evenings. There the boys and
girls dance TO the music of mouth-or-
gans and accordions. They are great
places for lovers to WOO in. The parks
and the roofs are the counting grounds
of the poor, for there is no privacy in
the tiny crowded homes. The roofs of
hundreds of the cheaper apartments
houses are the clothes-drying grounds,
and the tenants are obliged TO agree 10
take their turns at this use Of the space,
the frst-foor tenants having the roof On
Mondays, the second-foor tenants on
Tuesdays. and so on.
Leaving these crowded hives we turn
to what the English call the ''self-con.
tanned or separate dwellings, and here
again the roofs are utilized. Some are
quite deliberately fitted up in summer
with ported flowers and awnings, and
swinging hammocks-even with cots at
night We know Of one which supports
a glass-inclosed apartment with bath
tank for use all the year around. New
York has a concert hall on roof as
every one knows, and the roof of the
palatial Equitable Building is one of the
show places of the city. the best place
from which to view all the other roofs
that shelter $780, 900 persons in and
around town. From there and from the
Brooklyn Bridge you can sec that bus
inesses are also carried on above the
garrets. the businesses OF solar printing,
Of pelt and fur drying. of preparing
rushes. wicker stuff for chairs and many
other callings-mors than any Of Us are
aware ot.-Chatter.

CONTAMINATED WATER.
Impurities Usually Present In the wat,

tSuAAlN PRESENT IN the Water
supply ct Cities and Towns.
writer in a Milwaukee journal.
speaking of the water supplies OF cities
generally says: To one who has for
many years examined with a microscope
/ the water supply OF cities, it appear,
incredible that persons can be found
who are willing to take into their svs-
tens the denominations and filth which
are all the time present. The water
swarms with life. to which must be
added the vegetable forms, almost as
numerous, ana finally the millions of
/ bacteria. and infuSoria whose numbers
are limitless.
Such things are Objectionable enough
when living, but they die and rot like
larger animals. often by change of tenn
perature merely. in such immense num-
bers as to charge the drinking water
with sulphureted hydrogen; this causes
the offensive, putrid odor noticed
in water during the summer;
again on the banks of lakes,
in which water is stored for
city and town supply, there abound
masses of weeds of all descriptions
which die in due season and rot. In
this condition vegetable matter passes
into the water supply, and being COM
minuted by friction IN pipes, appears in
minute PARTICLES, which can be seen
floating in every glass of water.
People who hold up to the light a
glass of water which looks bright and
good, excepting this innocent, fine-look-
ing sediment, little think that when the
sediment is accumulated in bulk, it has
the odor Of tobacco juice, and sicllen-
ing odor as repulsive as filth can make
it. Who would eat such a mass of con-
yaminations? Then, why drink it in
small quantities in every glass of water
you use? Typhoid fever turks in every
particle of this deposit, and the smallest
doses carry contagion.
The same forms and impurities are
usually present in the water supply of
all cities and towns.

SUCCESS IN WORK.
Medical Mans Recipe for Winning an
Enyiable Reputation.

Enyiable Reputation.
Sir Andrew Clark, one of the most sue
cessful and distinguished of English
physicians, has recently had portrait
of himself presented by the staff of the
London Hospital. In his speech reply
ing to the presentation address Sir
Andrew gave some account of his life
and of the causes of his professional sue
cess. His story deserves perusal. Sir
Andrew was born in Scotland, and went
to London thirty-SiX years ago, young
man in delicate health, and without
single friend or influential connection.
He had, however, small patrimony,
and was enabled to pursue the study of
pathology, and to keep himself quite
free from any intrigues or quarrels. He
devoted himself to work, and before
many years, despite i'll health and op-
position, he was made physician to
London Hospital. His subsequent sue
cess was slow but continuous, and was
achieved without any definite expecta-
ton at first that it would eventually be
SO brilliant. Sir Andrew gave the fol-
lowing as some of the conditions neces-
sary for success in medicine:
FIRSTLY" he said, II believe that
every mans success is within himself,
and must come out of himself. No true,
abiding and just success can come to any
man in any other way. Secondly, man
must be seriously in earnest He must
act with singleness of heart and pur-
pose, he must do with all his might and
with all his concentration of thought
the one thing at the one time which he
is called upon to do. And if some of my
young friends should say here: 4 can
not do that can not love work. then
l answer that there is certain remedy,
and it is work. Work in spite of your
self, and make the habit of work, and
when the habit of work is formed it will
be TRANSPORTED into the love of work;
and at last you will not only abhor idle
ness, but you will have no happiness
out of work which then you are con-
strained from love to do. The man must
be charitable, not censorius self-effac-
ing, not self-seeking; and he must try
at once to think and to do the best for
his rivals and antagonists that can be
done. The man must believe that labor
is life, that successful labor is life and
gladness, and that successful labor, with
high aims and just objects, will bring to
him the fullest, trueSt and happiest life
that can be lived upon the earth. y
