A BIG PORCELAIN DOG.
II Scared officer Tucker Nearly Out of
His Wits.

Officer AS. Tucker of the Capron street
station had an experience this morning
that will remain fresh in his memory as
long as his life lasts, for should there be
any signs of mis- forgetting 1t his atten-
tion will be called TO 1t by other men,
bers of the force.
At o'clock this morning he discovered
a window out in the basement of the Bell
Street Chapel, and as there has been sew
eral churches entered recently, ofhcer
Tucker was sure that some one was In,
or had been in, the chapel during the
night. He crawled through the window
and did it like a burglar. After getting
into the basement he saw an object,
which made his hair stand on end, and
then made for the window again and for
the nearest police box, ell OF the time
keeping his eye on the chapel. AT the
box he telephoned to the Knight street
station, and requested Lieutenant Rankin
to send him assistance, and officer Pierce
responded. The latter was put on guard
at the church, while officer Tucker went
TO the home OF the janitor on Marshal
street, who, with the two officers, entered
the church, and at once started for the
object that was the cause of the trouble,
and when they reached il 1t proved TO be
q monstrous porcelain dog, and right
there and then officer Tucker turned
white, and was Obliged TO acknowledge
that the cigars were on him. There were
no traces OF burglars.

A crisis of nervous torture drove the
man to plain speech.
"Miss Cloud, the matter is more seri-
Gus than you could suspect You re-
member the paper / wrote-for the re-
view? It was rejected"
The word seemed to echo from every
surface of the room. Eveline stood
rnotionless, and burst not raise her
eyes.
"You can imagine how that affected
me-" he rushed on, with hot checks. "It
made me aware of my culpable folly.
Miss Cloud, you say that / must feel

His voice grew thick and he had to
pause. Eveline looked at him with gen.
tie surprise and her breath came quick
as she spoke:
"You feel it duty to use your great
gifts"

truth. I cannot stay here. / have been
