child, receive 1000 and no questions asked
The ransom money WAS offered after long ana
serious discussion Of the question as to whether
ransom reward should be offered. Tie officers
argued that the criminals should be brought to J. sce
and that the offering OF ransom without attempting
to secure the kdnappers was, from moral standpoint
compoundlng felony. To these arguments Mr.. Beals
replied "First let me find my boy and then you can
find his kidnappers"
A reward, he argued, would attract too many de-
tecves, who might the kdnappers close to earth
that rather than sutere penalty Of their crime they
would put the child out of the way and make good their
escape.

dressed like day laborer. Mr.. Beals went to the
door. TIE man said he detective; that he
had found the kidnapper and her accompnces; that
they had the lost child in their possession that they
demanded $4,000 ransom, and that they were pre-
pared TO deliver the child to its parents for that
AMOUNT. Mr.. Beas declined to pay this sum, and
stuck to his original offer Of 50 ,0OO 1t was finally
agreed that the detective" should deliver the child
for that amount. Mr.. Beals told the police and de-
tectives that he had pledged his honor that the de-
hvercr of the child should not be arrested while en-
gagged In the carrying Of his part of the contract
and ordered them positively not to interfere with his
plans and they did not. At 10 O'Clock ring brought
Mr.. Beals to the door. lie saw his lost child In the
arms OF the ruiian who had bargained for
the delivery Of the child. Mr.. Beals counted
out the money before the eyes OF the man and placed

At the same time the masked man placed In tine arms

Tie Ring of cheops.

Cheops was the builder Of tho pyramid
which bears his name, and, as if to make
the structure perpetuate his deeds for all
time to come, the very stones and bricks
of which it is composed are stamped with
his name. Cheops lived nearly 1880
Years ago, his great pyramid being an
antiquity i'll the days when the great
nations of old were In their youth, and
yet we of this Nineteenth century can
have the satisfaction of looking upon the
very ring he wore so proudly upon his
royal finger! The hieroglyphics on the
ring are infinitely accurate and beauti-
fully executed, the ring itself being OF
finest gold and weighing nearly an ounce.
The oval signet bears the name of Che
ops. which is in hieroglyphics in perfect
accord with the stamp on the bricks Of
the great pyramid. This remarkable an.
tiquity was found in q tomb at Ghizeh.
It now reposes in the museum Of the
