CIGARETTEOLOGY.
An Infallible Way of Telling a Mans
Character by New Set
of Signs.

The manner in which the smoker
holds his cigarette in his hand while
it is removed from his mouth tells much
to the student of cigaretteology. If
he holds it with four fingers along the
top, with the thumb underneath he is
either a born poet or musician. His
organization is very fine and sensitive.
Only the highest in all the arts will
appeal to him. He is sadly lacking in
courage and will never be married I'M
less some young woman takes advan-
tage of leap year and catches him OIL
his guard. He is very fond of fruit and
never eats meat. He is likely to be
morose and melancholy.
Grasping the cigarette with the tips
of all the fingers and thumb, with the
lighted end pointed directly toward the
palm of the hand, is very bad sign.
This smoker is a cold, calculating and
designing man. He has an instructive
bald before he is 25 years old
Holding the cigarette between the
thumb and forefinger, with the remain
ing fingers closed on the palm of the
hand, is infallible evidence that the
smoker first began toying with the
cigarette on the sly when he was very
young and in constant fear of the dead
ly slipper. When held in this manner
the cigarette can be concealed more
quickly and effectually than when held
in any other way, SO it may Indicate
many things The smoker will be very
dudish. If he drops his cigarette on the
piazza floor and resumes smoking it
without first knocking the dust off of
it, he is not as tidy and methodical as
he should be. He is also likely to he
careless and needless.
The fellow who holds his cigarette
between his first and second finger is
a bicycle scorcher or will be if he lives
long enough. He eats meat three times
day and has little regard for the
rights of other people. He will have
much trouble in life and will be put
in Jail several times.-Philadelphi In

HER MAJEsTY's CANES.
one Room in Queen Victoria's suite
IL Used n . StOrerOOm for Her
Walking Sticks.

Since the infirmities of Queen Vic
toria of England made it necessary for
her to use walking stick, she has been
the recipient ofs many canes. Her
friends, relatives and subjects have
seized upon every possible occasion to
present her with a new cane. One en-
tire room of her private suite is stocked
with these special gifts. Whenever she
expresses her intention of attending
a function. like a royal wedding or
christening, the interested parties con-
slider it fitting to send her another cane.
Every anniversary she is forced to &C.
knowledge a score or so more.
Here is collection of priceless value.
There are solid gold sticks, silver sticks,
exquisitely engraved; sticks that are
marvel of the carver's art and sticks
that contain jewels that would move
even New York opera patron to envy.
Queen Victoria has leaned more heav-
lily on her stick of late years, using it to
cross the room even, instead of only on
long walks about Windsor castle. and
after a long, tiresome ceremony. She
always places it against her chair, and
when she uses it it is the duty of the
highest court official to hand it to her.
The story of the prank played upon
Ter by the son of the duke of York has
aever appeared in print before. The
queen, who is not fond of court cere-
monies when she is in retirement, was
at Windsor, and had dismissed her at
tendants, who had withdrawn to an ar
Dor near by. She was very much inter-
.sted in her favorite pastime, knitting
socks for the prince of Wales, when that
small embodiment of mischief, her
great-grandson, slipped away with her
zane and played horsey" with it over
the lawn.
He had to be captured before the
queen could enter the house. There her
majesty proceeded to teach him that
even the future king of England cannot
tamper with the dignity of the present
powers that be.
Of recent years her subjects have
hoped in vain to see her use their gifts.
She has used only one cane. 1t is one of
great historic value, having been pre-
sented to King Charles II. by one of his
merry court. Very properly it was cut
from an oak tree. When Charles &C
cepted the gift it had plain gold head,
which was round and apt to hurt the
hand if the cane was called upon to sup
port much weight.
1t was whispered about the court re-
Gently that her majesty used no longer
the historic stick. This is not true;
only the top has been changed. An idol,
which graced the temple of an Inflated
Indian prince, has been added for a
handle. This is an exquisitely-wrought
affair in ivory, on an infnitesimal ped
estal of alabaster. The eyes and fore
head are jeweled, and on the tongue is
the rarest of rubies.-N. Y. Herald.

Hendricks smiled grimly. Eyes, 1
was Oh hand early enough. It was a
frightful place, little narrow hall,
used for lectures, political meetings,
and low-class concerts. About hun
dred people were present, mostly men.
You can judge what the crowd was when
i say that the price of admission was Is
cents. 1 got seat near the center of
the little stage, in the first row. The
drop-curtain was down, but promptly
at eight it was drawn up.
"a boy came out on the stage from be-
hind the scenes, bringing the lecturers
table, and placed it near the footlights.
The crowd began to applaud with sticks
and umbrellas, and in the uproar our
hero appeared, bowling and smiling, quite
at ease, I assure you. Really, admired
him for his GOODNESS. He was exactly
the style of man described by Matthews
as having paid the mysterious visit to
Strong. His hair was white, and he was
very thin, sallow. and dark skinned.
He looked as if he had not eaten any
thing nor had square nights sleep for
a month.

evening have been on dead run after
that chap, but he has given me the slip
you message, but could not tell you
where to meet me-"
"You have not given up the chaser
asked DIR. Lampkin.
81 am stumped for tonight, it seems"
was the reply. Hendricks rose and be-
gan to walk the floor excitedly. He
paused suddenly in front of his friend,
and, with his hands deep in his pockets,
said: 81 was never so absolutely cut
up in my life. I'd give my right arm to
have that man, dead or alive, tonight"
"Why, has anything particular hap
pened?"
Hendricks took from his pocket some
papers, kilograms and letters, and hand
ed one to the doctor. 'Is that not
enough to make man desperate? I
received it two days ago."
The telegram ran as follows:
Mr. WILDLY arrested. What shall do?
ANNETTE DELMAR."
DR.. Lampkin's face fell.
That's bad," he said-"very bad in
deed"
"Of course it is bad" grunted Hen
bricks. That's why 1 haven't seen you.
I have never given any mortal such a,
dead close chase in my life, hoping
every minute to be able to telegraph the
little girl that had nabbed the right
man, and that her sweetheart was safe"
But" said DR.. Lampkin, why
wouldn't they wait down there? Sure

THAT blasted blockhead Welsh! The
other day the papers began to ridicule
him for turning the case over to a New
York man, who had gone away without
doing anything. 1 was afraid that
Welsh would weaken; and he did the
minute the Times published the truth
about the shooting at the mayors and
Fred Walters took his wife away for
change of scene. You see, that knocked
the alibi theory into a cooked hat, and
the police were obliged to lay hold of

boy has been in Jail two days, and if
you want to weep and kick yourself

CHAPTER XVIII.

''Be at my Office at five o'clock sharp, and
wait till come
HENDRICKS"
AS soon as he received this message,
DIR. Lampkin turned a patient over to
his assistant, and went down to Hen
bricks Office in Park Row, arriving a
few minutes before five. The Office boy
said Hendricks had not come. The doc
tor went in and took a seat.
An hour passed, and still there was no
sign of the detective. Another hour
dragged by. 1t was growing dark. The
office boy came in, lighted the gas, and
laid down an evening paper.
ANY message from Mr.. Hendricks

"No, sir"
us there a restaurant near here?"
Just round the corner, sir"

bricks comes in, tell him he can find
me there, or will meet me on the way
back"
DR.. Lampkin went to the restaurant,
remained there 20 minutes, and re-
turned to the Office. Hendricks had not
arrived, nor sent any word of explana-
ton. The time passed very slowly to
the doctor. He smoked cigar, stretched
himself on lounge near an open win
dow, and, concentrating his mind upon
the idea that he would wake at the
slightest sound, allowed himself to
| sleep.
AT half past IL he was aroused. It
was Hendricks step on the stairs. He
opened the door, entered slowly, as if
wearied. and, with a sigh, sank into an
| armchair.

ly noticing his friend on the lounge,

the telegram"
Lampkin opened the envelope handed
him by the detective. Hendricks turned
and continued his nervous walk.
Dear Mr.. Hendricks the letter ran
"as I telegraph just now. they have ar
rested poor dear Mr.. WILDLY. 1t seems to
me I cannot bear any more. 1 am COM
pletely broken-hearted. We had kept up
hope, knowing that you and DR.. Lampkin,
two of the best men on earth, believed in
his innocence and were trying to establish
it. So long as we could meet occasionally,
read your letters together, and hope for the
best, it was not so very bad; but now-oh,
1 could never describe the depth of my woe!
1t seems that the whole world is against us.
AS soon as heard of the arrest, 1 went
down to the prison in cab, but they would
not let me see him. The Jail was sur
rounded by great crowd, hooting and yell
ing with all their might. They say Mr..
WILDLY would have been mobbed if he had
not been jailed secretly. The crowd even
sneered and laughed at me, and father
came down almost frantic with rage. He
forced me into cab and brought me home.
I don't know what to do. There is not even
g. soul who is willing to go on Mr.. Whidby'S
bond. except Col. Warrenton, and he has
been unable to arrange it. Every newspa-
per but one has declared editorially against
the likelihood of Mr.. Whidby's innocence.
Oh, if only he could be cleared now, what
a happy, happy girl should be! If only
you or DR.. Lampkin were here to advise
me! Col. Warrenton is good, but he is
helpless; public opinion is somewhat
against him. If you never get the proof
you are seeking, or never catch the real
criminal, shall still be grateful and love
both you and the doctor to the end of my
life.

DIR. Lampkin folded the letter with
trembling hands. Hendricks paused in
front of him, and smiled coldly.

s'Do you think you'll ever get within a

gloomily.

frown. ''I have told you several times
that was blasted ass, haven't I? Well,

growing surprise.
