interrupted, in obedience to a sign
from my companions; ''it clearly be-
longs to your daughter, and I am glad
to restore it to the rightful owner"
With many mumbled blessings and
protestations of gratitude the old
crone packed it away in her pocket,
and shuffled off down the stairs. Sher-
lock Holmes sprang to his feet the mo-
ment she was gone and rushed into his
room. He returned in n few seconds

the window I could see her walking
feebly along the other side, while her
pursuer logged her some little dis
lance behind. Either his whole the
DRY is incorrect" 1 thought to myself,
"or else he will be led now to the heart
of the mystery" There was no need

Excuse my using your name," he
said. "If I used my own some one of

and want to NEEDLE in the affair"
"That is ALL" I answered. "But sup

"Oh, yes, you have" said he, hand

dropped it while STOPPING over Dreb-
ber's body, and did not miss it at the
time. After leaving the house he dis
covered his loss, and hurried back, but
found the police already in possession,
owing to his own folly in leaving the
candle burning. He had to pretend to
be drunk in order to allay the suspi-
cions which might have been aroused
by his appearance at the gate. Now
put yourself in that mans place. On
thinking the matter over, it must have
occurred to him that it was possible
that he had lost the ring in the road
after leaving the house. What would
he do then? He would eagerly look out
for the evening papers, in the hope of
seeing it among the articles found.
His eye, of course, would light upon
this. He would be overjoyed. Why
should he fear a trap? There would
be no reason in his eyes why the find
ing of the ring should be connected
with the murder. He would come. He
will come You shall see him within

"And then?' I asked.

THEY GET TOGETHER.
Kelly Pool and John W. Jacks Shake
Hands and Oppose the Land
Loan Scheme.

From the Montgomery Standard.
To the Centralia Courier:
Shake.
We most heartily commend the
following sentiments uttered in that
paper last week:
But there is a serious objections
to the plan government loans on
real estate at 2 per cent?, and one
that it is hard for US to get over.
Like the national banking act and
Mckinly bill, it begets paternalism.
We believein a sturdy independent,
self-supporting citizenship and g
life, liberty and property protecting
government. We oppose every in
stance of direct governmental aid to
individuals as undemocratic and
not conducive to the development
of the highest type of a free Ameri-
can citizen. Had the government
never practicsd paternalism there
would now be no need for heroic
measures.
That is Democratic.
There is no aid or comfort in that
language to either Republicans or
Populists.
Keep up thu same ticks, Bro.
Pool, and all will be forgiven.

olmi Whyte.' I wondered who VIII
liam Whyte was. Some pragmatical
seventeenth century lawyer, I sup
pose. His writing has a legal twist
about it. Here comes our man, I
think"
As he spoke there was a sharp ring
at the bell. Sherlock Holmes rose
softly, and moved his chair in the di-
rcStion of the door. We heard the
servant pass along the hall, and the
sharp click of the latchas she opened it.
docs DIR. Watson live here?" asked
q clear but rather harsh voice. We
could not hear the servants reply, but
the door closed, and some one began to
ascend the. stairs. The football was an
uncertain and shutting one. A look of
surprise passed over the face of my
companion as he listened to it. 1 came
Elowly along the passage, and there
was a feeble tap at the door.
"Come in" 1 cried.
At my summons, instead of the man
o. violence whom we expected, a very
old and wrinkled woman hobbled into
the apartment. She ..ppeared to be
dazzled by the sudden blaze of light,
and, after dropping a courtesy. she
stood blinking at US with her bleared
eyes and fumbling in her pocket with
nervous, shaky fingers. 1 glanced at
MY companion, and his face had as
sumed such a d~isconsolate expression
that it was all 1 could do to keep my
countenance.
The old crone drew out an evening
paper, and pointed at our advertise
ment. Its this as has brought me,
good gentlemen" she said, dropping
another courtesy; "a gold wedding
ring in the Brixton road. 1t belongs
to my girl Sally, as was married only
this time twelvemonth, which her
husband is steward aboard a union
boat, and what he'd say if he come
'ome and found her without her ring
is more than 1 can think, he being
short enough at the best O times, but
more especially when we has the
drink. If it please you, she went to
the circus last night along with
us that her ring?" 1 asked.
1.-THE Lord be thanked" cried the
old "Sally will be a glad
woman this night. That's the ring"
"And what may your address be?9"
I inquired, taking up a pencil.
"13 Duncan street, Houndsditch. A
weary way from here"
1.-THE Brixton road does not lie be-
tween any circus and Houndsditch,' 50
said Sherlock Holmes, sharply.
The old woman faced round and
looked keenly at him from her little
red-rimmed eyes. 1.-THE gentleman
asked me for my address," she said.

Rows. Don't Smoke!!

Chauncey NJ. Depew once re-
marked that he regarded his success
in life as due, in a great measure, to
his frmness in breaking off the
habit of smoking, says the New
York Times. He enjoyed his cigars
as much as did and ardent lover of
the weed, but when he found that
smoking interfered with his think
ing apparatus, he promptly stopped
it.
Luther Prescott Hubbard is an
other New Yorker who attributes
not only his financial success but
his long and %contented life to his
total abstinence from the tobacco
habit. When a mere lad he chewed
and smoked, but was induced to
abandon both the quid and the cigar
by the reasoning of a dear friend.
For many years Mr.. Hubbard had
been in business on Wall Street and
just after he had passed his eighty
fifth year he printed and circulated
a little treatise on elbow a Smoker
Got a Home"
Mr.. Hubbard says: "My smok-
ing was moderate compared with
that of many, only six cigars a day
at Ga cents each, equal to $136.50
per annum, which at 7 per cent in
terest for 81 years amounts to the
small fortune of $11S, 924. 26. This
has afforded means for the education
of my children, with an appropriate
allowance for benevolent objects"
This contented octogenarian began
saving his cigar money by deposit
ing it in the Seamen's Bank for
Savings. In a few years he had ac-
eumulated enough to buy a COM
Portable home near the city and
overlooking Long Island Sound.
During the long period of his patient
economy he has been in the receipt
