last moment. Perhaps after all she
would not need to ask him to stay. He
might remain of his own accord. She
watched him narrowly as she talked
and saw with alarm that there was anx-
iety in his face. Some care was worry
ing him, and she yearned to have him
confide his trouble to her. And yet she
talked and talked of other things. She
noticed that he inside but poor pretense
of eating, and that he allowed her to

those absentmindedly. At last he pushed
back his chair with laugh that sound

to gamble, and I'm not as rich as old
Hammond yet.
"Oh, yes Dick, dear, and that re-
minds me. Another thing your father
feared was that Mr.. Hammond might
come to know you were member of the
club. 1t might hurt your prospects in

dismissal she felt sure would follow the

a MATTER OF EGGS.

Oucen victoria and the Royal Fnn'~
iIy Use the American Product.
Five hundred million of eggs are
shipped to Philadelphia every year,
large proportion of which are housed
away in the big cold storage depots
to be kept for use as the needs OF the
market require. The fact that during
the week of the queens jubilee Vic
toria and her royal family used eX-
clusively American eggs and poultry
at their dinners and luncheons is re-
garded as special Recommendation for
the superiority Of these twin articles
of produce, and were this important pit
of dining-room gossip known about
American barn yards it would cause
many of the feathered champion egg
producers to look decidedly proud over
such queenly recognition.
The egg supply in this country just
now is absolutely enormous, says tho
Philadelphia Press, and more eggs have
been placed in cold storage than ever
before, Prices were never lower, and
Il is contended that the market here
can be relieved by shipping the sur
nus stock abroad and sold In close
competition with the foreign produc'
tion in all of the great market centers'
1t has not yet been decided whether "a
export the spring eggs now IN colo
storage or wait until the shipments Oh
frrsh-laid eggs begin to arrive.

FUTURE KING or ENGLAND.
Prince Edward of York, who VIII
he CareAt some Day.


Prince Edward of York, who Will
he GreAt some Day.
Little Prince Edward of York is OBJ
viously being brought up in the way he
should go, which, in the case of mem
Der Of the royal family, means having
ones picture taken with gratifying
frequency. A tiny fodder who is pre-
sumably destined to occupy the throne
of England cannot, it is to be supposed,
have his picture taken too often, and
certainly those ofsPrince Edward are
attractive enough to win him hundreds
of Transatlantic admirers.
In his newest little photograph the
little prince is seated in his private
equipage, which is safely stationary.
The little wicker carriage is very pretty
and comfortable, says the st. Louis
PostIDispatch, but it was not intended
to cover very much ground, while the
wooden steeds have suspended ami
nation that protects the youthful driver
from all possible peril. In spite OF his
safe position, Prince Edward looks
quite as worried as though he were
driving the chariot of state for which
he will one day be responsible. IT is
quite likely, however, that, far from
anticipating the burdens attendant
upon his kingly dignity, Prince Edward
is nearly overcome by his new RESPONSE
bility as the head of the family, Prince
Albert and Princess Victoria both be-
ing babies. Princess Victoria is ju-
bilee baby and the youngest of the
queens great-grandchildren.
OF course there are many possibili-
ties that the young duke of York may
never reach the throne. His GRANDPA
Their, the prince, has been the heir
apparent for nearly 60 years, and bets
have been made that the queen, his
mother, will outlive him. Then, after
the prince of Wales, comes the young
dukes father.

"pIaEoN pRoPPERs" IN LAW
The Meaning of This Term Just Elu-

The Meaning of This Term just Elu-
cidRted in Kansas.
In the trial of case in police court
Mt Lawrence the other day the law
yers were puzzled to discover in
an old city ordinance the words pigeon
dropper," which were evidently used to
demonstrate a certain class of Grim
inal, says the Kensas City Journal. No
one, however, knew anything about
the class or their methods, and dis
custom was started which lasted for
several days and brought out all sorts
of explanations. Finally F. w. Reed
solved the riddle. He said that 4Oyears
ago, when he was in business in New
York city, the term was a common one
in police court circles.
About that time a new confidence
game was started which required n
brace of confederates to successfully
operate it. They would pick up man
ON the streets who looked "easy," when
one of the confederates would go ahead
and drop what appeared to be a big
roll of bills. The second confederate,
keeping pace with the victim, SO as to
arrive at the spot little in advance OF
him, would pick up the roll.
Turning then to the victim, he would
exploin that he had to- hurry. out OF
town; that the roll contained at least
$1,000; that the loss would surely be
advertised and a reward of at least
500 be offered; wouldn't the gentle
man advance as much as the reward
was sure to be and take the roll? The
gentleman usually fastened to accom-
MEDIATE the finder, only to discover later
that the $1,000 roll was simply wad
of paper, with a ten-dollar bill wrapped
around it. This, says Reed, was known
as "plgeon dropping" and the operators
MS "pipeon troopers"
