Sensitive Because of Her Are.

Many persons show so strange a secsi-
tiveness to the question of age that their
friends may well avoid the entire subject.
When Mrs. s. c.. Hall was at least 20 years
old, she met at u reception a young clergy
man who was apparently delighted to see
her.
Mrs. Hail." said he, 81 remember read

"Then, sir" flashed Mrs. Hall, "if you

The mother of Julia Kavanaugh was a
woman of great intellectual power and UNI
usual force of character, but even when
she was so years old she was ashamed of
her age.
One day she went with her French maid
to the cemetery at Nice to visit the tomb
she had erected to her daughter. The two
were standing before the stone when the
maid innocently read the inscription. Jul
liza Kavanaugh had Their been dead seven
years, and her age, 81, was of course re-
corded.
Madam must be very DID," remarked
The maid.
"Oldl" exclaimed Mrs. Kavanaugh.
"Why should l be old? What do you know
about my age?"
"Mademoiselle was 81 when she died, !"
continued the girl, IAN she has been dead
some time. Therefore madam must be
very old"
Mrs. Kavanaugh said nothing, but next
day she sent a mason to the cemetery and
had the telltale figures removed. Youths

twigs, and he appeared as anxious to be
secret as we ourselves. From time tc
time he stopped and listened; fortu
nately there was no moon, OF in turning
about as he did once or twice he would
have observed us. The field sloped
downward just before us and there was
another hedge at right angles, leading
down to a slight hollow. To this hol.

before him. Crouching before it he
produced matches from his pocket,
struck me- and in a moment had a fire
of twigs and small branches that sent
up a heavy white smoke. What all
this ~portended l could not imagine, but
a sense of the weirdness of the whole
adventure came upon me unchecked
The horrible corpse in the wood with
its severed wrist, Hewitt's enigmatical
forebodings, the mysterious tracking
of the man with the broken shoe, the
scene around the gypsies' fire, and now
the strange behavior of this man, whose
connection with the tragedy was SO
intimate, and yet so inexplicable-all
these things contributed to make up a
tale of but a few hours duration, but
of an inscrutable impressiveness that !
began to feel in my nerves.
The man bent a thin stick double,
and, using it as a pair of tongs, held
some indistinguishable object over the
flames before him. Excited as l was l

and held the stick with his left hand.

stood scarcely three yards behind him
and looked over his shoulder the form

the intense CONSERVATION of the driver,
who, 1 believe, very nearly set up a cry
for help on his own account. Once in
the cart, however, l seized the reiLs
and the whip myself, and, leaving
Hewitt to take care of the prisoner, put
the turnout along toward Ratherby at
as near two miles an hour as it could
go. We made first for Mr.. Har6wick's,
but he, we found, was with my uncle,
SO we followed him. The arrest of the
Fosters had been effected, we learned,
not very long after we had left the
wood, as they returned, by another
route to Ranworth.
We brought u prisoner into the
c~olonel's library, where he and Mr..
Hardwick were sitting.
I'm not quite sure what we can
charge him with, unless it's anatomical
robbery,"Hewitt remarked, "but here's
the criminal"
The man only looked down with q
sulkily impenetrable co%untenance.
Hewitt spoke to him once or twice, and
at last he said, in a strange accent,
something that sounded like "Kckfn
jinaaroy."
"Keck jim" mot understand) asked
Hewitt, in the loud clear one one in
stinctively adopts in talking to q for
eigner Keekeno jinny.
The man understood and shook his
head, but not another word would he
say or another question answer.
Hes a foreign gypsy" Hewitt ex-
planned, lust as l thought-a Wallach-
ian, in fact. Theirs is an older and
purer dialect than that of the English
gypsies, and only some of the roqt
words are alike. But l think we csn

Fosters, at least, had nothing to Go
with, at any rate, cutting off S~neathy's
hand. Here it is, l think" and he
gingerly lifted the folds Of sacking from
the CHASTITY object as it lay on the table,
and then covered it again.
But what-what does it all mean?"
Mr.. Hardwick said, in b~cwildercd as
constituent. 'Do you mean this man
is an accomplice?"
"Not at all-the case was one of ST.
eide, as think you'll agree when I've
explained. This man simply found to-

being each divided into two, made four
short, stout pieces of something less
than six inches long each. Then Hew-
lit joined them together in pairs, each
pair being connected from center to
center by about nine or ten inches OF
the cord he had brought from the
gypsies' camp. This done. he handed
4 pair to me. "Gandcuffs," he ex-
planned, land no bad ones, either.
See-you use them So" and he passed
the cord round my wrist, gripping the
two handles and giving them a slight
twist that sufficiently convinced me Of
the excruciating pain that might be in
ficted by a vigorous turn, and the
utter helplessness of a prisoner thus Sc
cured in the hands OF captors prepared
to use their Instruments.
"Whom are these for?"I asked. ''The
man with the broken shoe?"
Hewitt nodded. Yes" he said. 81
expect we shall find him out alone
about midnight. You know how to use
these now"
1t fully eleven before the cart was
ready and we started. A quarter OF a
mile or so from the gypsy encampment
Hewitt stopped the cart, and gave the
driver instructions to wait. We got
through the hedge and made our way
on the soft ground behind it, in the di-
rection of the vans and the tent.
Roll up your handkerchief" Hewitt
whispered, Into a tight pad. The mo-
ment l grab him, ram it into his mouth
-qceU in, mind, so that it doesn't easily
fall out. Probably he will be stoop-
ing-that will make it easier; we can
pull him suddenly backward. Now be
quiet"
We kept on till nothing but the hedge
divided us from the space whereon
stood the encampment. 1t was now
nearer twelve o'clock than eleven, but
the time we waited seemed endless.
But time is not eternity, after all, and
at last we heard a noise in the tent. A
minute after the mar we sought was
standing before US. He made straight
for a gap in the hedge which we had
passed On our way, and we crouched
low and waited. He emerged on our
side of the hedge, with his back toward
us, and began walking as we had
walked, behind the hedge, but in the
opposite direction. We followed.
He carried something in his hand that
looked like a large bundle of sticks and

denly, 1 felt his hand tightly grip my
arm just above the elbow. l turned
and found his face close by mine and
his finger raised w~arningly. Then l
saw him produce his wrist-grip and
make a motion with his palm towards
his mouth, which l understood to be
intended to remind me of the gag We
stepped forward.
The man turned his horrible cooking

sticks, as though to smoke and dry it

Hewitt took both wrist holds in n
hand and drove the gag entirely into
the mans mouth. so that he almost
choked. A piece of sacking lay near
the fire, and by Hewitt's request |
dropped that awful hand from the
wooden tongs upon it and rolled it up
in a parcel-it was, no doubt, what the
sacking had been brought for. Then

But presently the man, who had been
walking quietly, though gasping, sniff
ing and choking because of the tightly
rolled handkerchief in his mouth-pres-
emily he made a sudden dive, thinking
doubtless to get his wrists free by sur

his wrists a twist that made him roll
