A DOG Trained to steal.

Frederick Hampton, As, described a. a
fishmonger Of London road, Croydon,
was charged before Mr.. Biron ut the
Lambeth police court with stealing and
receiving lady's silk umbrella, value
rs. 3D., tho property Of Louisa Squires.
The evidence already given showed
that On Saturday the prosecutrix was
walldng along Remington Park road
with an umbrella in her hand. She saw
trap coming along and n dog running
behind. The dog came toward her, took
hold of her umbrella and shook it, and
she let 20.
The dog then ran off with the UNI
brella in the same direction as tho trap.
The prisoner, who was driving, was
afterward arrested, and upon searching
the trap the policeman found seven UNI
brellas, including the one identified by
Miss Squires.
A second case was gone into. Mrs.
Henrietta Ray, the wife Of DR.. Ray Of
East Croydon, stated that at the begin
ming of lost month she was walking
along London road, Croydon, in COM
pany with two other ladies. The wit
ness was carrying q sunshade. A dog
suddenly ran up TO her, snatched her
supshade and ran after the trap, in
which there We're two persons. That
morning she saw the sunshade at this
court.-London Graphic.

now determined to step IN myself and
to allay her scruplcs with a portion of
the truth.
"Did you ever hear" said I, "of Mr..
Rankeillor, of the Quecnsferry?'
"Rankeillor the writer" said she. wI
daursay that"
well" said I, ''it's to his door that |
am bound, so You may Judge by that if
am an Ill doer; and 1 will, tell you
more, that though 1 am indeed, by a
dreadful error, in some peril of myiife.
King George has no truer friend In all
Scotland than myself"
Her face cleared up mightilya at this,
although Alan's darkened.
"Thats more than would ask" said
she. "Mr. Rankeilloris kennt man"
And she babe us finish our meat. get
clear OF the clachanas soon as might be,
and lie close in the bit wood on the seq
beach. "And w can trust me-" says
she. "Pll find some means to put YOU
over"
AT this we waited for no more, but
shook h2ndsfwith her upon the bargain,
made sAort work of the buildings and
set forth again from Li,nekilns as far as
to the wood.
The day came to an end, and we were
long since strangely tortured with anx-
ieties before we heard the grinding of
oars upon the; rowing pins. At that we
looked out and saw the lass herself CON-
ing rowing to,'us in boat. She had
trusted no one, with our affairs, not even
her sweetheart, if she had one, but az
soon as her father was asleep had left
tho house by a window, stolen neigh
boris boat and come to our assistance
single handed.
I was abashed how 10 find expression
for nay thanks, but she was no less
abashed at the thought of hearing them:
| begged rs to Use no time and to hold
! our peace. saying Every properly that
= .'+5'i4.a..G of our matter was in haste
and silence, and SO, what with one thing
and another, she had set us on the
Lothian shore not far from Garden,
had shaken hands with us and was out
again ct sea and rowing for Limekilns
before there was one word said either of
her service or our gratitude.

be- trusted"
"Sir," said /, eff tell you my story I
must commit friends life to your dis
erection. Pass me your word it shall be
sacred, and for what touches myself /
will ask no better guarantee than just
your face"
He passed me his word very seriously.
"But," said he, ''these are rather alarm
ing PROHIBITIONS, and if there are in
your story any little jostles to the law, I
would beg you to bear in mind thatI
am q lawyer, and pass lightly"
Thereupon told him my story from
the first. He listened with his spectacles
thrust up and his eyes closed, so that I
sometimes feared he was asleep. But
no such matter! He heard every word
(as found afterward with such quick
ness of bearing and precision Of memory
as often surprised me. Even strange,
outlandish Gaelic names, heard for that
time only, he remembered, and would
remind me of years after. Yet when I
called Alan Breck in full we had an odd
scene. The name of Alan had of course
rung through Scotland with the news
of the Appin murder and the offer of
the reward, and it had no sooner escaped
me than the lawyer moved in his seat
and opened his eyes.

said L: "but since / have let it slip, 1
may as well continue"
"Not at ALL" said Mr.. Rankeillor.
81 am somewhat dull of hearing, as you
may have remarked, and am far from
sure l caught the name exactly. We
will call your friend, if you please, Mr..
Thomson-that there may be no re-
Elections. And in future 1 would take
some such way with any highlander
that you may have to mention-dead or
alive"
"Well, WELL" said the lawyer when 1
had quite done, "this is great epic, q
great Odyssey of yours. You have
shown q singular aptitude for getting
into false positions, and yes, upon the
whole, for behaving well in them. This
Mr.. Thomson seems to me gentleman
Of some choice qualities, though per-
l'aps trihe bloody minded. 1t would
lease me none the worse if with all its
mcrit2) he We're soused in the North sea;
for tho man, Mr.. David, is a sore en-
barrassmert. But you are doubtless
quite right to adhere to him; indubita-
bly, he adhered to YOU"
He rose called over the stair To Law
another plate, for Mr.. Balfour would
stay to dinner, and led me into bed
room in the upper part Of the house.
Here he set before me water and soap
and his comb, and laid out some clothes
that belonged to his son, and here, with
another opposite tag, he left me to my
toilet.

1 COME TO MR.. RANKEILLoR.


The next day it was agreed that Alan
should fend for himself till sunset, but
as soon as il began to grow dark he
should lie in the fields by the roadside
near to Newhalls, and stir for naught
until he heard me whistliug.
L was in the long street Of Queensferry
before the sun was up. 1t was fairly
built burg, the houses Of good stone,
many slated; the town hail not so fine,
l thought, as that of PEBBLES, nor yet
the street so noble, but take it altogether
it put me to shame for my foul tatters.
And as L continued to walk up and
down and saw people looking askance at
me upon the street or out Of windows,
and nudging or speaking one to another
with smiles, began to take fresh APP
prehension that it might be no easy
matter even to come to speech of tho
lawyer, far less to convince him OF my
story.
For the life Of me could not muster
up the courage to address any of these
reputable burgers. 1 thought shame
even to speak with them in such pickle
of rags and dirt, and il I had asked for
the house Of such man as Mr.. Ran
keillor / supposed they would have
burst out laughing in my face. 1t grew
to be high day at last, perhaps miro in
the forenoon, and was worn with these
wanderings, and CHANGED to have stopped
in front of very good house on the
landward side, a house with beautiful,
clear glass windows, Towering knots
upon the stills, the walls new harled
newly rough castl, and chase dog sit
ting yawning on the step like one that
was az acme. Well, Twas even envying
this dumb brute when the door fell
open and there issued forth a little
shrewd, ruddy, kindly consequential
man in well powdered wig and spec
tacles. was in such plight that no
one set eyes ON me once, but he looked
ut me again, and this gentleman, as it
proved, was 30 much struck with my
poor appearance that he came straight
up to me and asked me what did.
I,told him was come to tho Queens
ferry on business, and taking heart Of
grace asked him to direct me to the
house of Mr.. Rankeillor.
"Why," said he, 1'that is his house
that have Just coee out Of, and for a
rather singular chance ] am that very
man."
-Then, sir" said L. II have to beg the
favor of an interview"
II 40 not know your pa,ne," said lie,
"nor yet your face"
my name is David Balfour." said 1.
David Balforr" Ike repeated in rather
a high tone, like one snrprised. ''And
syhere have you come from, Mr.. David
Balfonrf' de ASKED lod1ing mo pretty
,dryly in the face.
II have come from "a great maBy
strange places, sir" said I,"but think
it woald be as well TO tsll yon where and
how IN q more private manner"
He seemed to Ea1se AWHILE, holding his
lip in his hand and looking now at me
sud now upon the Sasiseway of the street.
"Yes," says he, "that will he the best
no doubt" And he led mo back with
him into his house, cried out to some ohe
whom j could not sec that he would be
engaged all morning, and brought me
