Yesterday morning a three'year-old
child belonging to a Polish family residing
in the western part OF town strayed away
and remained absent all day. At 8 o'clock
last evening the distracted father sought
the aid of the police and Chief Burgess
Smith and told them to return the child to
its home on Msyberry alley. AT about 10
o'clock last night the child was found
asleep at the home of Patrick Matthews in
the First ward. Chief Burgess Smith
sought the parents on May berry alley, but
failed to locate them. Early this morning
the father was again hunting for his child
and Mr.. Matthews surrendered 1t. The
child wandered into the First ward early in
the day and played with Mr.. Matthews
children until night, when Mrs. Matthews
fed and put it to bed,

which now seemed clearly at
fributable to some graver cause
than inattention and insolence. He re-
called Mary Rogers playful pieasantries
with Susy about Pedro, and Susy's mys-
FERROUS air. which be had hitherto regarded
only as part of her exaggeration. He re-
membered Mrs. Peyton's unwarrantable
uneasiness about Susy, which he had

thing. To his quickened imagination in
this ruin of his faith and trust he believed
that Hooker's detection was either part OF
the conspiracy. or that he Rad run away to
avoid being implicated with Susy in its
discovery. This. too. was the significance
of Gilroy's parting warning. He and Mrs.
Peyton alone had been blind and confiding
in the midst of this treacheiy, and even he
had been blind to his own real affections.
The wind had risen again. and the faint
light on the opposite wall grew tremulous
and shifting with the movement OF the
foliage without. But presently the glow
became quite obliterated, as if by the in
tervention Of some opaque body outside
the window. He rose hurriediy and went
to the easement. But at the same moment
he fancied he heard the jainming of door
or window in quite another direction, and
his examination of the easement before
him showed him only the silver light of
the thinly clouded sky falling uninter-
ruptedly through the bars and foliage on
the interior of the whitewashed embrasure.

across him. The line of the casa was

to pass, it left the room in shadow. He
then opened the door softly. locked it be-

In her admiration of what she believed
to be loyal outburst for his friend, Phoebe
overlooked the implied sneer at her pro-
vincial home. But her father went on
with perfunctory, exasperating, dusty
aridlty. THAT mebbee ez mebbee, Mr..

To this Mr.. Hooker offered no further
reply than whitening rebuke OF the
waiter, genteel abstraction and lofty
change of subject. He pressed upon them
two tickets for the performance-of which
he seemed TO have number neatly
clasped in an india rubber band and ad-
yised them to come early. They would
see him after the performance and sap
together. He must leave them now. as he
had TO be punctualiy at the theater, and
if he fingered he should be pestered by
interviews. He withdrew under dazzl-
ing display of cuff and white handkerchief
and with that inward swing of the arm
and slight bowiness of the leg generally
recognized in his profession as the ioung-
ing exit of high comedy.
The mingsing of awe and an uneasy
sense of changed relations which that
meeting with Jim had brought to Ph9be

even Mr.. Hopkins seemed to share her
feelings. The theater was large and brll-
liant In decoration; the seats were well
