CHAPTER V.
ON THE MOVE.


Now, when l left Smyrna to visit
Elkton, it was not my intention to set
right in on the job, as l already had
an engagement for the time being, but
my plan was, while going, as per ar
rangement, to learn the particulars.
| would also establish my man No. 9.
as a feeler and spy, to learn which wav
the wind blew, and if possible, to catch
a clue.
The sun had already passed eating
time, when | left my employer, veil
ing something Il don't know what
into bright, polished concern, hung
upon the wall. Hurrying to ioin NV
man, said | {: Ned, Elkton is no place
for tramps, and we'd better skip
why, what's the hustle ?"
"Oh, nothing, only that man Powell
is here, making tintypes, for 80 cents,
and | don't believe l want any of it /:
do you ?"
mo, but l would like to have my
dinner"
Your dinner You've got none or 1
either. You are always starved. Just
now it is business before pleasure.
You should lay low and chew poke
root until We find out what we are 20
ing to do.
On reaching the depot l began to
inquire where the sun rose at, etc.
"Oh, you mean Rising Sun -
YES, Yes; that's it-Sun Rising"
well" said he, Rising Sun is
quite-a-ways, and on another road ;
you can't reach there to-day. There
is no connection with this next train
at Perryville."
Nov, supposing when this train
stops here, We get aboard and ride un-
til she stops again, then we get of,
where will we be at?"
well, | should Judge you would be
at Northeast; that is the next stop"
What for looking place is that
Northeast ?''
why, Northeast is nice little
town"
Just then thought of my hungry
companion, and said, "A big hotel
there, | suppose?"
Yes. Sir
well, that is the place. Just write
it down, please, Gu couple of pieces
of paper, so we can show the man in
blue coat and gold buttons, in case he
should want to put us of"
In few seconds we were spinning
toward Baltimore at the rate of sc
miles per minute, more or less.

RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES.

A detective is entitled %, and should
receive all the privileges usually a3cor-
ded to the profession. Theatrical man
ayers, prOprietOrs of shows and fairs,
and those conducting all kinds of
amusements or business, that call to-
gether large numbers of people, are al
ways glad to extend the cOurtesies of
the house to an authorized detective,
for the security thus afforded their pa
irons against thieves and pick-pockets.
Railroad officials frequently furnish
free transportation to a detective when
he is known to be prosecuting his le
gitimate business. In fact, a recog-
nized and authorized detective is a
sort of privileged character, and is
usually permitted to come and go,
where and when he likes.
Now, distinctly understand me,
please. l do not mean to say, ifI had
grudge against you, could shoulder
my gun, and go shoot you down like a
rabbit, and the law would Justify me
in such. No, never said it, did L?
Neither does the law say, |, any con
stable or sheriff, or any one else, has
right to carry concealed weapons. But
it does say, whoever carries any pis-
tol, dirk, etc, shall be fined, etc,
making no distinction whatever, for
official position. But a subsequent
statute provides that, if it appear on
trial that the accused was engaged in
a lawful business, and that circum-
stances justified Il prudent man in
carrying a weapon for the defense of
his person, property or family, the
jury shall acquit him,
A gun doesn't make a detective,
neither is there any two cases alike,
so that no set of irOnclad rules can be
prepared to suit oil cases. After all
rules and instructions that could be
given by all the veteran detectives in
America, had been studied and learn
ed by rOte, still, if the operator does
not use common sense, prudence and
caution. and study carefully the cir
cumstances Of each particular case, he
will surely fail. There is great mis-
understanding throughout the coun'
/ try, as to what are a detectives rights
and power in different counties and
states, when, how and whom he may
arrest without warrant, etc. etc.

The Countess Pauline Sander in 1856
distinguished herself by marrying her
uncle, who was Richard the Prince Met
ternich and son of that Metternich who
was conspicuous in the alliances against
Bonaparte. In no long time the Princess
Pauline became an intimate friend Of
the Empress Eugene, and being uncom-
monty smart, very rich, rather hand
some and just little wicked. she got on
the inside of all the intrigues in Paris.
She knew as much about Louis Napo-
leon as his wife did and more about
Eugene than he did. And now her rep
resentatives announce that she wrote it
all down and they mean to publish it.
Paris is delighted, and several great
people are scared.

There ought to be some organization
in this county with sufficient means at
its disposal and sufficient public spirit
to insure a creditablc exhibit of the re-
sources and products of the county at
such an admirable exposition as that
which is to be held at Tacoma next
month. Last year when the matter
was first urged it was argued that it
was too late to get up a suitable exhibit,
but that excuse does not hold good this
year. The fact of the business is that
our humid atmosphere seems to be so
favorable to the growth of moss that it
begins to accumulate with astonishing
rapidity on the backs of most of the
people after they have been here about
two years. Really enterprising and
public spirited men are the exception
rather than the rule just now.
There are few here who
would actively and literally aid in a
united effort of the Bay cities to repre-
sent the county creditably at the Ex-
position but unfortunately it seems
well nigh impossible to obtain assur-
ances of anything more than "moral
support from New Whatcom for any
object of that kind. A great deal could
be accomplished by concerted action
and a little money.

The King county delegation to the
Democratic state convention is in
structed to use its utmost endeavors
TO secure the conventions endorsement
Of the Lake Washington canal scheme.
The argument will be advanced that
there can be no possibility of carrying
King county without such endorse
ment and that without King county
there can be no hope of success in the
state. The argument is not altogether
good one but we hope it will prevail.
1t is matter which has no proper
place in state politics, but it is there
and the responsibility for placing it
there no longer rests alone with King
county.

The HERALD was the first and is
thus far the only papor in the county
to print the full Republican ticket,
national, state and county, at the head
Of its editorial columns. What is the
matter with our esteemed Republican
contemporaries? The omission of the
county ticket might possibly indicate
that the central committee left some
fair bill unpaid at the close Of the last
campaign, as they did with both the
HERALD and the WORLD, which bills,
by the way, still remain unpaid. but
the omission of the state ticket certainly
cannot be ascribed to any such cause
The brethren are all right, of course,
but they should print the ticket as O
matter Of information, If nothing more.

Lord Salisbury, whose resignation OF
the great office of prime minister OF
the English government has been pre-
sented TO and accepted by the queen
not because it was her will but because
it seemed to be the will of the people
deserves to be ranked among the
greatest statesmen of the century.
Gladstone is greatly his superior in
ability as an orator and possesses in a
far greater degree the qualities which
distinguish great popular leaders, but
it may reasonably be questioned
whether Lord Salisbury is not at least
his equal in the kind of craftsmanship
which the administrative head of the
British government should possess
great executive and diplomatic ability,
keen comprehension and sound judg-
ment.

BOYS in the british Army.

1t grows harder every year to get re-
cruits for the British army, chiefly be-
cause army life has not improved with
the advance of the nation. Wages have
risen till the average is three or four
times that Of a privates pay, and so a
little intrigue has to be used. An order
has been issued requiring all boys who
apply for the place Of telegraph messen-
gers to agree to join the army at the ex-
piration of their term in the messenger
service. An English paper calls atten-
ton to the immense importation of boys
in the ranks of the army, and the in
creasing difficulty of obtaining recruits,
owing to the smallness of the pay, the
poor chance of promotion for those with
out influential friends, and the chilling
manner in which the soldiers are treated
where they ought to be welcome.

DIR. TERRY. After the two
friends had been fencing for little
while Castaldis foil broke through the
doctors mask, infiicting a slight wound
on the nose, very near the eye. 1t was
scarcely more than a scratch, and after
putting on new mask the doctor re-
sumed operations. They had been "lung-
| ing, parrying and getting away" for
some moments when Castaldi made a
downward feint, and describing a semi
circle with his foil attempted to score
point. Without the knowledge of either
of the contestants, DR.. Terry must have
knocked the button off the professors
foil, and the keen point tore through
the thin French mask, struck the right
eye and penetrated two inches, striking
the brain.
The remarkable feature of the case
occurred just at this point, for DIR. Terry,
having fallen to the floor, directed what
should be done, ordered that no doctors
be sent for and insisted upon diagnos-
ing his own case. He felt his own
pulse, made thorough examination of
himself and then calmly informed the
bystanders that he would die, as he felt
certain that the inner part of his brain
was ruptured and blood clot was form.

had predicted, for he expired within
few hours of the accident. The dead
man was an eminent physician, well
known athlete, prominent church Off

As soon as the war broke out the Nor
wegian lad shouldered a musket and
went to the front as private in the
Fourth Wisconsin infantry, with which
he served until after hostilities had
ceased. He had read law and soon after
the war was admitted TO the bar.
Kpute Nelson was natural born poll
tician, and in 1859 he served in the
Wisconsin legislature. About that time
he moved to Douglas county, MINI. He
had not been there long before he was
again actively engaged in politics, being
elected prosecuting attorney in 1879.
Mr.. Nelson afterward served four years
in the state senate, and in 1880 was an
elector on the Garfield ticket. He was
elected to congress in 1882, and re-elect-
ed in 1884 and 1886. In 1885 he received
the largest majority ever given to any
candidate in that district.
Mr.. Nelson, although Republican
member of congress, voted for the Mills
bill, and also introduced small free
trade measure. Since March 4, 1889,
Mr.. Nelson has been in private life.

The recent labor trouble in Tennessee
has its origin in the convict lease sys-
tenn In vogue in that state and against
which the free miners cannot be blamed
for rebelling. The only features Of the
trouble which merits condemnation is
the species Of violence to which the
miners have resorted to compel rec
ognition Of their rights. 1t is an out
rage for any state to farm out convict
labor in competition with the labor Of
its law abiding citizens. The legis-
lature was wrong in enacting the law
and wrong in refusing to repeal 1t after
q fair trial had clearly demonstrated its
unfairness. But that does not justify

member of the school board for several
years. In 1864 Mr.. Ingraham was the
Democratic candidate for Judge of the
Portland municipal court, and ran we'll
ahead of his ticket. He has made two
trips to Europe, and has prepared, as
the direct result of his researches in for
eign lands, three lectures-"Michael An
gelo," Works of Architecture and
Their Associations" and "From the
Tweed to the Tiber." These lectures he
has delivered ON many occasions, usually
for the aid of some benevolent enter
prise.
Mr.. Ingraham was candidate for the
Democratic congressional nomination in
1874. but Bion Bradbury obtained the
coveted honor. He has been thrice a
candidate for the legislature, and was
elected once-in 1879. He has held
several positions of importance in politi-
cal, financial and educational life. He
has been for many years a frequent con
tributor to the press. His style is force
full and convincing. He served as con.

Portland, having been elected last spring
by majority of 221 over all his OPP
ponents.

National Indemnities.

The payment of S75, 900 in gold by the
Gillian government, through Minister
Egan, to be distributed to the families
OF the two seamen who were killed and
to the men who were injured in the riot
at Valparaiso, ends that unfortunate
affair with credit to both the republic
Of Chilli and that of the United States.
The riot occurred Oct. 10, 1891.
The United States government itself
has always done the square thing by
way Of indemnity in case of injury to
foreign citizens, thus setting good ex-
ample. We paid to Italy last year $685.
600 damages for the Italians killed in
the New Orleans mob, and there are
people in New Orleans who believe this
country got rid of some of them cheap
at that. The indemnity paid amounted
TO $2,750 per head for the Italian citizens
killed in the riot.

On the other hand, in November,
1873, the American ship Virginius was
seized by a Spanish gunboat and
taken to Cuban port, where some of
her crew and passengers were shot on
the charge of being connected with a
revolutionary plot. Some of those shot
were British subjects, others American.
For this outrage Spain paid to the
United States government $500 for
each person killed.

three Of the four prizes offered to grad
