named, but learned that the men had
only been there a few minutes earlier in
the evening.
They had no money and were sober

amt been into no crooked work of late"
The fact that they were not spending
money made me believe that if these men
were really the thieves they had not yet
sold their plumber. So | decided upon a
bold movement. Securing the aid Of II
trusty detective who had once served me
in somewhat similar case, | went to Ho-
gan's house. A red-facGd woman admit

also rested upon her husband.
''The property is not Mr.. Tingle's, and
if you wish to save yourself from trouble
you will deliver it up to this officer at
once" | added.
The woman turned pale and hesitated.
A threat to place her under arrest brought
her to Il decision, and a parcel containing
the plumber was placed in my hand.
AT the police court next day Hogan and
Tingle were confronted with the evidence
of their crime, and Frank Orr's eyes dane

yet, considering the hard times, he had
done very well. Once a month he had
been able to send a little money TO his
mother, who needed his help sorely. For
six months past he had been employed in
the shop of Il manufacturing jeweler. That
day twenty valuable rings and some 9th

A SIDE from some noted criminal
n prosecutions which | conducted
Il Aaeveral years ago, the incident
which ! am about to relate was one of
the most interesting chapters in my pro-
feSSiOnal life. 1t had been II stormy No
vcmher day. During the morning the rain
had come down in torrents. Toward noon
the water began to crystalline as it de-
scendcd, and all afternoon the snow had

cross to the elevated railroad station.
Near the corner ! encountered Il crowd
of mcn and boys, in the center of which
stood a hluecoat with Il prisoner. Stand
ing ON tip-toe, | saw that the prisoner
was Il young lad with Il remarkably hand
some face and gentlemanly manner. \
call had been sent in for Il patrol wagon,
and the policeman was waiting the re-
Spouse. The boy looked thoroughly fright
cned. AS | reached the spot he was pro-
testing his innocence and begging to be
released.

That's all right, you young rascal"
the policeman replied. Nobody that's ar
rested ever steals anything. But when
we get our clutches on EN- they don't
generally turn out such %innocents us they
claim"
Just then the patrol wagon dashed up,
two officers alightcd, and the boy was
quickly hustled up the steps of the wagon
and driven off.
"Wh0t stationy' l asked as they drove
off toward the south. There was no re-
