CHAPTER xxx.

Paxton did not appear to be as much
surprised to hear that Stanmore had as
sumed the role Of an eavesdropper as
might have been anticipated.
To his men he said:
Not word about this"
That same evening Paxton again WIS.,
tied the pawnbroker, and secured the
locket containing the picture Of Donald
Wayburn which had belonged to Marion
Oakburn.
The next day when Stanmore dropped
In at the detectives office as usual the
latter slyly opened the locket in his
hand, and glanced frequently from the
portrait it contained to Stanmorc's face,
as though he was comparing the two.
When Stanmore had gone, Paxton
said in monologue.
Twas not mistaken when 1 thought
made discovery when first saw the
picture. The portrait in Marion OAK
burns lockct is that OF MIR. Stanmore,
taken years ago, and though he has
since changed greatly he cannot change
his eyes. The name of the ori iginal OF
the portrait is written under it. That
name is Donald Wayburn, and there
fore | know that Richard Stanmore' S
real name is Donald Wayburn. He is
the author of the threatening letter
which l fo1nd among John Oakburn S
correspondence. Here is mystery. Has
the Chief Of Police who sent this man
to me been deceived in him? Can it be
that this man whom I have trusted, and
who has employed me. is really guard
Ing the secret of the great crime / am
irving TO unr.ar!L?"

The Sight of Birds.

Birds are commonly credited with
an extraordinary range OF Vlsion.
Circumstances lend aid to the develop
ment of the mental factors in their
case. The Usual distance at which
terrestrial species use their eyes Is
limited by the ground horizon. But
in the case of the soaring birds, SUCH
as yultures and eagles, the horizon,
the natural limit of sight, is enor.
mously extended. Macgillivrsy early
noted that though birds OF prey have
orbits of great size-the eyeball OF
the common buzzard being II 1ncaes
in diameter-they do not, as a rule,
soar when seeking their prey.
The eagle, when hunting. flies low,
lust as do the sparrow.hawk and the
hen.harr1er. Yet the vultures and
condors, birds which admittedly do
soar when seeking food. have been
proved to find carrion by sight. a
carcass was covered with canvas, and
some offal placed npon it. The
yultures saw this, descended and ate
it, and then sat on the covered Por.
tion within few inches OF putrld
CARCASS. When q hole was made IN
the covering they saw and attacked
the food below. But the rapid con-
eregation of vultures from distance
to a carcass is probably due to their
watching their neighbors, each OF
which is surveying limited area.
Charles Darwin pointed out that in 9
level country the height OF sky COM
monty noticed by mounted man 1s
not more than fifteen degrees above
the horizon; and a vulture on the
wing at the height of between 3ooO
feet and 1000 feet would probably be
two miles distant, and invisible:
Those which descend rapidly and
appear to have come from beyond the
range of human eight. were perhaps
lowering vertically over the hunter
when he killed his game.-The spec

Remedy for Warts.

Those who fail to charm their warts
away by rhymes and ceremonies will
find glacial acetic acid. or saturated
solution of salicylic acid in water, the
best domestic remedy to use for them.
Apply the remedy to the surface OF
the wart with the sharp point of
wooden toothpick or match. Use it
carefully, and keep it from touching
tte surrounding sound skin. In two
days carefully scrape off the dead sur
face and apply the liquid again, and
continue in the same way until the
growth has disappeared. Label the
drug plainly, write on it its use, and
keep out of the way OF children. -

Bridpe Forty. one Miles in Length.

A gigantic undertaking, the bridg-
ing over of Folks Strait, separating
the Island of Ceylon from the main
land of India, is seriously proposed
by the Ceylon Government, says the
Philadelphia Telegraph. The strait is
forty. one miles broad at its narrowest
point, double the width Of the English
Channel, but is very shallow, in many
places only 81. feet deep. The islands.
reefs, and channels in it have been re-
cent? y surveyed, and the cost Of works,
extending over sixty-one miles, lnclu-
ding the Pambam Channel and the
Adams Bridge reef, is estimated at
2S, 100000 rupees. The ends will be
connected by 145 miles OF railroad
with Colombo. the great harbor OF
Ceylon, on one side, and by ninety
miles of road with Madura, the nearest
point of the Indian railroad system,
on the other. If narrow gaugeis used,
this can be done for IL 600, QUO rupees

SECRETS OF FASHION
THE VEIL LIFTED FROM AU-
TUMN AND WINTER STYLES.
Textures and Colors to Be More
Splendid Than Ever-Plaids
Coming in Again A
Brave Blue.

~ UREKA! the iron silence OF
H fashionmakers has bee n
broken at last, and the arbit.
ers of styles have consented
to lift the veil of future modes.
There was marked disinclination
to talk around autumn and winter
styles. Yet, writes the New York
correspondent of the Chicago Record,
a few of the great big wigs have been
persuaded to show here and there
some early coufection which, if not
pointing toward any radical changes
in cut, seem to indicate that textures
and colors are to be more splendid
than ever.
In the way OF shapings likely to be
carried over to new season at leao-
ing dressmaker's it was learned that
there will be doubtless the redingotes
and short "court" coats that have al.
ready received catchet from elegant
Parisiennes. Round bodies will also
continue, in gauzy instances hanging
sometimes over the belt, back and
front, in complete blouse effect. and
with the round bodies, especially in
the case of evening gowns in stiff silk
for slight figures, dared peplum tails,
shaped like the shorter ones Of the
jacket shown, will frequently be
added.
Again, this peplum effect may be
made by squarish tabs of lace, slight

" wider at bottom than at top, and
hung at intervals all round.

Iy wider at bottom than at top, and
hung at intervals all round.
In the way Of autumn and winter
suggestions for street wear, the only
new things as yet to be seen were at
the smart dressmaking establishments,
the importers of CONNECTIONS, and at
one of these places some fine samples
in novelty woods, in splendid autumn
tints, seemed to indicate that plaids
we're coming in again.
The choicest tints in these were rich
reds and browns and butter and Octo-
ber leaf yellows; the patterns broken
bars in different shadings and then
squared with black, which gave tone
to the whole.
In no instance was the faded color
of the summer seen, but bold plaid
in strange bluet, webbed over with
black, and 30 familiarly creponated
that one would have called it crepon
had it not been known that this word
was now forbidden in polite fashion
circles.
"Of course crepons will be worn, !"
said the fashion light who was show
ing off the sample. "Too many have
been made for the manufacturers to
be willing to shelve them entirely.
"Only they will be called by new
name, perhaps simply 'nou7eautes' "
and the great general of fine clothes
smiled cunningly. In the way OF
stuffs for evening wear some pompa-
dour silks, gorgeously hned and OF a
boardlike thickness, were simply awe
some in their magnifcence. A green
brocade, which shades in movement
tide lizards skin, was patterned
with great gold BEETLES that stood out
like the figures on Chinese draperies
In plain cloth brave blue that
hinted of bugles and battlefelds was
novel and elegant. It was just the
tint of the trousers worn by United
States soldiers; and when later on it
was discovered in part-composltIon OF
dashing visiting toilet. one was not
surprised to hear that it had been
dubbed "soldier blue" All the dark
portion of it is black satin, the light,
the soldier blue cloth; the buttons
are wooden molds covered with the
satin, the outline embroidery being in
copper and jet on the blue. A strik-
ino bodice is carriage zouave IN

lined in black an: gilt. The wide
border and smart, square lapels are
in tho same gold and black embrold-
cry, and the gown worn with this very
elegant corsage will be of black peau
de sole.
Apropos, however, of the tall stock
and "cabbages" that ornament the
throat of this design, and which were
of black chiffon, the oracle OF modes
declared that this sort of thing was
not worn at all now. 1t had only, she
declared with heat. been put there at
the express command of the dame for
whom the zouave had been imported.

One of the greatest boasts OF the Bavarian
city of Munich has long been the beer which
is manufactured there, and to whose purity
and healthful properties the average Bavnr rian
is always ready to make attestation. Such
nttestations are of very little worth. however,
in view Of the fact that Doctor Bollinger,
Munich's most eminent physician, asserts
that if is very rare to find 4 normal heart
and normal kidneys in an adult resident OF
that city. The reason for the kidney diseasn
is the tax put upon these organs by drinking
OF this so-called pure beer, and the cardial

he proceeded to follow him as he walked
rapidly away.
The man led Stuart long distance.
Although he did not betray the fact.
subsequent results proved that the man
whom Stuart was following discovered
that he was shadowed soon after Har-
land took his trail.
Finally he entered building, which
was ostensibly cheap restaurant, but
the rear Of which was O low gambling
den.
This was the very house in which
Marion Oakburn was now held as
captive. The proprietor Of the place
was friend OF Levi Kredge, who had
been bribed to act as Marion's jailer.
Upon entering this place, the myster.
ious man who was the object OF Stuart
Harland's pursuit, darted through the
little restaurant in front and entered the
gambling room in the rear.
He seemed to be well known to the
proprietor of the place, who, with dozen
or more other men, was present, for the
latter greeted him in familiar way.
"You look scared. What's up?" he
asked.
In his interlocutor's ear the man whom
Stuart had followed, whispered:

Done. I'm your man. Let's see the

The other handed the gambler roll OF
bank notes, and then he sprang into a
closet and 'osed the door.
The man who had received the money
whispered to his companions for mo.
! ment, and then oil became silence in the
gambling den as they heard some one
