he angrily turned over the bundles of
deeds which represented tens of thou
sands of pounds.
But as the last drawer slid open a
chuckle escaped him. There lay bun
die Of crisp Bank of England notes,
which Mr.. Timpany had received on
tho completion of conveyancing mat
ter after office houw, on behalf of his
client, too late to pay into the bank.
Shifting the notes into his pocket, he
gathered up his tools and prepared to
depart. To his great joy, he saw upon
the table bottle Of port wine and a
tumbler.
"Oh. amt o kind" he soliloquized,
Ito perwide refreshment as well as
amusement? Ie might a left it in a
tureen. an really don't like drinkin
port out Of a tu1nbler. Reckon he's too
thirsty for wine glasses an mops it up
here ON the Q. T."
And taking dp the bottle Mr.. Rem
shaw placed it to his lips and drank and
drank, until he lad drained it to the
dregs.
Replacing the bottle on the table, he
picked up his tools. He was bit tired
after his exertions. though he had not
felt it SO Enthusiastically as now.
He slid into a chair to rest for mo-
ment. He felt quite sleepy. II there
had been more than half bottle of
port, he would have fancied he was
drunk.
''This won't do he muttered. II
must get back to the pony trap. Was
ser matter, so sleep-eep-eepyl Ahoo!"
And he yawned loudly.
He essayed TO rise. but could not.
For moment he felt thrill of fright,
but 1t died away in a deep and drown
ing slumber. His arms sank upon the
table and his head between them.
II
And there five hours later Mr.. T M
pany, trotting down in his dressing
gown, found him. For a moment he
started, then he said
My friends a man of his word. l
Thought he was, though ! began to give
him up. So the glass bottles on the
wall, tho bulldog, the electric bells and
the iron shutters all failed me. But
my own idea-the drugged bottle Of
wine which I've left in this room ever
since this gentleman's last sentence ex-
pired-has done its. work admirably"
And then Mr.. Timpany trotted up
stairs for that patent alarm whistle and
woke up all the sleepers in the locality
except the burglar, who slept on for
several hours more and awoke to find
himself seated on hard deal board in
police station cell.
He is now commencing term of 10
years p,nal servitude, and his constant

Princess Marie of Greece is the prin-

mentioned of late as bride for the
Russian czarowitz. She is is years of
age, belongs to the same religion as
the czarowitz and might make him a
good wife were it not for the fact that
she happens to be his first cousin, her
father, King George, being brother of
the czarina. And there is nothing which
the canons of the Greek church more
strictly prohibit than matrimonial un-

WAsHtsGroS Cry, April 16.--(Special. -
The secretary Of the treasury has trans
mitted TO congress communication from
the attorney general submitting, for an
appropriation, the account of Chinese In
spector J. @. Mccoy. for $50 paid by him
TO Johnston 4 Mckinney. attorneys at
Spokane, for services IN the case of Charles
Bodman, whose arrest for smuggling
opium was caused by Mccoy. The de-
partment has no appropriation out of
which this small amount could be paid,
and in the presentation of the matter 10
congress. all the accompanying documents
having been printed, three times the
amount has already been expended. John
ston and Mckinney were employed to
prosecute Bodman, by the authorization
of United States Attorney William IL.
Brinker, who was compelled to be In at
tendance on court at Seattle on that day,
January S. 1894. This seemingly small
matter has brought to light the whole his
tory of the Spokane smuggling ring, which
is second only TO the one which operated
at Portland. In report to the treasury
department. Mccoy says:
"CharIes Bodman was chief engineer on
the steamer Columbia, plying between
Northport, United States, and Revels,oke,
British Columbia, on the Columbia river
IL was almost universally known that he
was veteran, persistent smuggler. and
that he was the convoy for several other
parties engaged In smuggling opium.
When the steamer Columb bia tied up for
the winter ut Northport. Bodman came to
Spokane, the headquarters and distrIhut-
ing point for the region of the northeast
portion of the state OF Washington, and
the northern portion of Idaho.
"A great number of persons at Spokane
are engaged in. or connected with, or in
some way beneficiaries OF, smuggling
transactions, and their abettors and sym-
pathizers are legion"
McCoy's report concludes thus:
Il hope YOU will pardon the great length
OF this communication. | should have II
typewriter. but there are none here can
trust 10 do II that am not sure would not
fur nish copy thereof TO the opium ring
Its employees watch every movement |
