The owner of the farmhouse had in
herited it from his father. There was
| nothing very odd about this, even to
our other-world notions of property, ex-
cept that the father was still living as
| hale and hearty as you please, in a little
den at the foot of the garden. He was,
in short, what is known as an inkyo,
or one dwelling in retirement"-a
singular state, composed of equal parts
of this world and the next; like dying
in theory, and then undertaking to
live on in practice. For an inlyo is a
man who has formally handed in his
resignation to the community, and yet
continues to exist most enjoyably in the
midst of it. He has abdicated in favor
of his eldest son, and having put off all
responsibilities, is filially supported in a
life of ease and pleasure.
In spite of being no longer in society,
the father was greedily social. AS soon
as he heard foreigner had arrived he
trotted over to call, and nothing would
do but / must visit his niche early in the
morning, before going away.
After breakfast, therefore, the son
duly came to fetch me, and we started
off through the garden. For his sire's
place of retirement lay away from the
road, toward the river, that the dear
old gentleman might command a view
of the peaks opposite of one of which,
called the Etchiu Fuji from it's conical
form, he was dotingly fond.
The worthy virtuoso. as he was, met
us at the door, and escorted us upstairs
to see his treasures. The room was
tapestried with all manner of works of
art, of which he was justly proud, while
the house itself stood copied from a
Chinese model, for he was very classic.
But was pleased to find that above all
his heart was given to the view. 1t was
shared, as | also discovered. by the tea
ceremonies, in which he was prof.
cient; such a mixture is man. But I
believe the view to have been the deep
er affection. While / was admiring it.
he fetched from a cupboard very sus-
picious-looking bottle of what turned
out to be honey, and pressed glass of it
upon me. / duly slipped this not inap-
propriate liquor, since cordials SAVIOR of
asceticism, and this one, being of nat
ural decoction. peculiarly befitted a
secular anchorite. Then / took my
leave of one who, though no longer
in the world, was still so charmingly
of it.
The good soul claimed to be wido-
wer, but such bereavement is no neces-
sary preliminary to becoming a
''dweller in retirement" Sometimes
man enters the inkyo state
while he still has with him the
helpmate of his youth, and the two
go together to this aftermath of life.

was no time for explanations, and Ar

ineness Of her welcome.
A moment later the policeman took
his prisoner into the Office, aud Mrs.
Delaro and her party followed. During
all the time the prisoner did not utter
a word. He was allowed to sit down,
and when once he raised his blanched,
terror-stricllen face, Armida immedi
ately recognized it.

others were occupied by the rest of the
party, and they drove away from the i'm
mense crowd, which had gathered to the
police station. The charge was entered,
and Mrs. Delaro and Percy were in
structed to appear next day and give
their evidence against the prisoner.
The entire party then returned to the
hotel together. Mr.. Blodger, who was
considerably mystified and wished to

company the party, and of course he
| had to take his heavyweight son along
with him.
When they were once more seated in
one Of the elegant suite of rooms which
Mrs Delaro occupied, Armida was the
| first to speak
Where is Mr.. Breezy? Did he not
say he would wait unt til we returned?"
"Probably he felt too unwell to re-
main and went to his hotel" said her
mother, but no sooner had she uttered
the words than her maid came into the
room crying and sobbing: "Oh, Mrs.
| Delaro, they have taken Mr.. Bregy to
the police station, and there has been
| terrible trouble here"
Taken Mr.. Bregy to the police sta

Mrs. Delaro.
| AS we'll as she could, in her excited
state, the girl related how one of the
| porters, in passing the door which was
| slightly ajar, had seen Mr.. Bregy stand
| ing over Miss Armidas writing desk

| him until he had opened it and when
Mr.. Bregy had his hat on ready to leave

his fingers.

mistake about it ALL" said Armida.
There is no mistake at all, miss"
said the garrulous girl, ''for they have
| locked him up at the police station, and
he will be taken before the magistrate
in the morning"
Still Armida could not believe it, and
was determined to go and see Eugene;
but as she could not go alone, she ac-

Agent COl1ey Tries to Convict Man on
Flimsy Evidence.
Liquor Agent Colley lost three cases
this morning. The charges were against
Patrick r. Kelly of North Elm street
for selling liquor to minors. Miss Mary
Cleveland, a teacher in the Elm street
school, was the only witness. Each case
was taken up separately. On June 1st
she saw little boy coming out of a
passage way leading to Kelly's saloon,
with pail of beer. On June 25th she
saw a little girl coming out of the same
passage way with a pail of beer. In
neither case had she seen the children
come from Kelly's saloon. 1t was then
proved that the passage way is used as
an entrance to houses in the rear,
where other saloons are. Attorney
Colley tried to prove that the beer came
from Kelly's because Miss Cleveland saw
considerable foam on it. Judge Brad
street acquitted the prisoner of the two
cases tried and Attorney ColIey decided
not to hear the third.
Johanna Connors for drunkenness was
fined S..
Francis Moore, charged with breach OF
the peace, was acquitted. Daniel Delaney
was the complainant. He said that
last Monday while working above the
old Tucker mill in Waterville he was
thrown down an embankment by Moore
