THEREBY HANGS A TALE.
Story of a Mysterious Man and His
Mysterious Movements.

The wind whisted merrily around the cor
ner of the Boston block whirling the dust in
the faces of the pedestrians hurrying home
ward TO pleasant greetings at the gate, warm
suppers and curtain lectures. 1t smote the
electric wires until they hummed in veXa
ton, blew down signboard, chased plug
hat half block, swirled the skirts of passing
typewriter. the perambulating variety, and
whistled in merry madness. Then it lowered
about the corner moment did this saucy
wind, and began 10 NEEDLE with the silvered
locks of an old man that stood there. But he
minded it not Apparently oblivious of the
mad freaks Of the wind seemed he, lost in
deep meditation. His form was erect and
clothed in garb of finest texture and modest
make his silk hat was carefully brushed and
everything about him bespoke the solid bust
ness man; but there was far-away look in his
eye that indicated u brooding spirit, except
whensome person carelessly brushed against
him. Then his whole manner changed. He
became the personitication of suspicion.
The moving throng became denser and he
drew back into the shadow of the building.
Presently policeman hove in sight, feet
down on the sidewalk Him the old man
beckoned to one side and accosted in whis-
per, not so low but that the wind caught it
up and bore it to the ears of GLOBE reporter
standing near.
You see. my friend,' said he to the
armed guardian of the side door, Il want to
cross that street. Now, you fellows are so
wideawake (and there he betrayed his DOW
ers of penetration) that 1 know you would
see me, and wouldn't t, for the world, have
you mention It,.
The officer seemed to know the old man,
and agreed to keep his lips sealed-until he
should be offered cigar-and the elderly
gentleman passed on. He continued his way
down the street until he reached Washing
ton. There the same performance was re-
peated with another officer. This was grow
ing serious Why did this eminently re-
spectacle old gentleman seem SO
anxious to avoid public notice?

THE SIRENS VOICE.
How 1t Influenced Wondering
Eneas From Dakota.

Z1IHCdS EOul ~ ohOtos
E Denny; Hannatin once gave it out as
piece of reliable information that every
man in \ orth Dakota is politician Den
ny overlooked one man who dwells in the
land of boundless prairies when he made
John Peterson. John is not politician. but
the friend of the politician, and all
his kindred. John is sucker"
While passing down Nicollet yesterday
John listened to the voice of the siren and
succumbed The siren was short. fat man
with bald head and a tin plate voice,
rendered high by the effect of McKinleys
protection. The siren was singing in reci-
iative "A dollar. a dollar,a dollar! Going at a
dollar! who said ffty?" John said he'd
make it fifty" He was sorry the next
moment, because tall man with a dark,
sinister breath shouted two dollars" at the
same time looking at j ohm as at a hated foe.
But John comes from Dakota and wouldn't
be bluffed. Again he made it fifty" just
as John was preparing tor all onslaught from
the tall man, the siren shouted: 'Three-fifty
and sod to my friend here with the red neck
tie John was the friend with the red neck
tie, and what bore an outward resemblance
to watch had been knocked down to him.
The man with the tin-plate voice confidenti

while he was about IL. showing him one for
Sis, which was said to be worth much more.
AS stated, John was no lottery politician. and a
$3.50 watch was GOOD enough Tor him. DARK
hints of prosecution from another man who
called him friend" however. induced John
TO pay over the SIS. Then he Eft and started
for police headquarters. But the siren was
a suspicious siren, and before John had
registered his kick with the police his SIS
had been returned. and of course the police
couldn't make out case against the auction

being a Dakotan, and not a politician.

pied table. The reporter dropped down at
the next. In the course Of an hour waiter
sauntered up and inquired:
'Hev We Civ yer Order?'
Not SO loud, my friend not so loud
mildly expostulated the old gentleman.
Come closer here. / am about to eat sir

side and cup of coffee. Now, be very cir
cumspect about it, Don't let word about
it leak out. Premature publication of it
would spoil our plans. But ! think / can
trust you.''
Decidedly this was interesting. Who was
this old gentleman with the mysterious air
about him?
The supper was finished. and the check
was paid. the cashier being admonished TO
SAY nothing about it to any one.' Out into
the street again ventured the old man, wa!K-
ing i'll the shadow of the buildings. At the
corner of Washington and Hennepln he
halted. An electric car came down, switched.
and started to return on another trip. AS
the conductor was about to give the signal
TO start his arm was clutched from behind.
1t was the old man again.

on your car. for you look like man whom l
can trust. The success Of the trip depends
entirely upon the secrecy with which 1t can
be accomplished. Those st. Paul fellows
mustn't get hold of this. Don't breathe
word about this.
The plot began to attain the consistency OF
calfs liver
The car whirled away on its trip, the old
man lingering on the platform in dark cor
ner. Out toward Central Park the old gen
tleman dropped off quietly and mounted the
steps of stately residence. suppressed
growl betokened the presence of dog.
ssh! Be still, 1'ige! don't make noise!
don't stir! not word now.'
Silently he passed within the door, and all
was silence again. The reporter approached
and read name Oh the old-fasmoned door

The mystery was cleared away.

How a Woman Treated a HuS-

Three pretty rosy checked children. aged
respectively eight five and three years, were
before Judge Corrigan yesterday in company
with their mother Mrs. Susan Costello. They
had been brought on petition of Secretary
Holt, of The associated charities to be sen
TO the state school at Owatonna. The little
ones seemed filled with affection for their
parent, and listened to her fearful story in
open eyed wonder. She stated that her hus-
band had died four years ago, leaving her in
such destitute circumstances that after the
funeral expenses had been paid. there was
absolutely nothing left,so the struggle begun
against starvation. and struggle that was al
most too much for her.
She was at last compelled apply for aid
and the society thought 1t best to send the
pretty little ones where they will be cared
for. The mother hated to part with them,
but was finally persuaded it was all for the
the best, ana the scene of parting was an ar
fecting one. The mother wept great tears
while three sad little walls came from as
many thrOats almost affecting some OF the
bystanders TO tears through sympathy.

PITlED HER HUSBAND.
But She Was a Woman, and One
Right Word Sufficed.


WAS a man named Sperry locked up here
last night?"
The inquirer was woman who visited the
central station yesterday afternoon. With
her was little girl about three years old.
There were traces of tears in the woman's
black eyes, but these orbs flashed not little
fire as She inquired. Then she went on to
give description of the man, her husband.
She was told that such man had beenlocked
up, but that he had given the name of Nc
Daniels Then the woman related sad tale
of married life extending over period Of six
wears. He would drink. He would spend all
his money He would run around with other
women. Then she spoke of how badly her
father would feel should she leave her scape
grace of husband. and the tears began to
fall. Memories of their days of courtship
evidently filled her mind. She was disposed
to be Ienient toward the father of her child.
"Oh, yes, | know that fellow" said Ser
geant Kirkham, breaking in upon her exh1-
bition of grief HE was fighting down in
Fish alley, using an aX on another man. They
were fighting over colored woman down
there.
That was enough. The reference to col
ored woman settled il. No more tears; no
more compassion for an unfortunate hus-
band: no more leniency. The black eyes
flashed again. Down came her foot with
stamp.
''Oh. I'd like to give him licking" came
through her clenched teeth. The door
slammed behind her and she was gone.
She was a woman. and she showed il.

AWAITS Sad Story.

Harry Green, black-eyed little waif of the
streets, was sent to the school at Owatonna
yesterday by order of Judge Corrigan. His
story was pitiful one. His mother had left
her home and husband and gone upon life
OF shame. Shortly after the father had left
the city and never returned, leaving the boy
practically an orphan. An uncle had taken
care of him for a time. but was too poor to
stand the pressure, SO he gradually drifted
onto the streets, where he PICKED up sus-
the ears of charitable people, and the court
was petitioneo to send him to school.
