self that something was burning.
Whatever it was that burned it
spread an odor quite as enervating as
Hewitt's bonery on warm day.
The watchman thought heap of
rubbish was smouldering and rushed
to the basement, but there the odor
was not discernible. He returned to
the main corridor and again the disa-
greeable odor assailed him.
He determined to find the cause and
discovered that the odor emanated from
the prothonotary's Office. He rushed
in and found Court Messenger Newton
calmly smoking cigar and putting
great clouds of smoke upwards that
sent forth suggestive o1ors of burning
rubber.
That explained the mystery.
Newton was engaged in smoking a
cigar with a thin gutta percha core
which Deputy Sheriff Craig prepared
for the benefit of Recorder OF Deeds
Healey. That gentleman, not know
ing it was loaded, gave the cigar eto
Watchman Stahleber, who in turn
handed it to Mr. Newton. The latter
did not realize what vile thing he
was smoking until his attention was
called to it. The cigar disappeared i'm.
mediately afterward Through an open
window and the wStchman set to work
to Danish the odor.
