HOW A MAN MADE S7,ooo.
Because the Chap Who Lost It Told HI.
 Business In a Cafe.


 Don't discuss your private business affairs in public place, ," said an old Brooklynite to the New Yorker who ap- preached him in cafe near the city nall Then the Brooklyn man, pointing out real estate dealer, said:
 Talking about a business deal in this very cafe cost that man s7, 900. and the money went into my pocket too You see, he represented a syndicate that wanted to build on some property i1 which was interested as the owner of one house and city lot. The agent did not know me from a Canarsie clammer We'll, he came in here with friend one of tho syndicate-for luncheon on an afternoon in last July. They took seats at this table. l sat at the next one.
 began to take notice, as grand mas say, when heard the strangers at the next table discuss quite loudly a deal in relation to the property adjoin- ing mine. The agent had ordered fine layout for luncheon and was evidently well pleased with his deal. He said to his friend:
 We'll, pulled off the trick for that property at 219 Cheap street today. The owner thought was doing him favor. l started in at $15, 900 and final ly closed with him for SIS, GOO. He bit in hurry. Why, the property is worth S25, GOO if it's worth dollar to us Now I must look for the chap that owns 221. He'll be glad to get SIS. GOO for his house. It's lucky for us they're not on to the fact that we want to buy that entire block.
 Il didn't need to do any eavesdrop- ping, you see. That little speech of the agent cost him exactly $7, 900. You can readily guess that I, as the owner of 221 Cheap street, was not especially anxious to sell after that. I kept MT. Real Es- tate Man on the jump for nearly five months, and when l let up on him I got my price, exactly s25, 0o0-a neat little profit of $7,000 above what I would have gladly accepted. So you see the point of my remark to you, Don't discuss private business affairs in a pub lie place. Now we'll go to my office and I'll listen to your proposition. ''- New York Sun.

A Gittle Comedy
 Of Errors
(Continued From Yesterday)
BY s. s. MORTON.

''NIr. North! 1 must ask you not to trifie. Affairs are far too serious for that Tell me. please, precisely how we stand. This forgery having been discovered, the will, of course, is set aside. Docs the matter end there, or is it to be investigated?"
 North was radiant.
 '.That is cleverly to the point!' he declared to himself with admiring ap- proval: then to Mrs. Maynard he re sponded glarGedly:
 ''Oh, there will be an investigation, of course. The affair is quite too seri- ous. as you say-fo:rery and conspira- y, you know; state prison offeEse, if T7roven-tO be passed over. For this .cason," he added. with a significant eriancc at Mrs. Maynard. ''I advise that -ou take immediate action in the mat ter"
 II, Nr. North?" she echoed, faintly, as she paused and looked appealingly at him.
 He was leaning back languidly, the very picture of graceful composure, with his elbows resting on the arms of his chair, and his dclicatcly white hands ,-lasped idly, while he trifled with the solitaire ring on his little finger. Even in the midst of her troubled thoughts Mrs. Maynard $ eye caught the fire and sparkle of the diamond She had never noticed it lDcfore.
 ''T, Alr. North?" She repeated. with vague caution; for in North's glance and manner there was something sub tile, intangible, that placed her, she knew not why, instantly upon her guard. And pray, why should I move in an investigations"
 North waited for a moment to give greater effect to his answer, while he stee,iily returned Mrs. Maynard's in- quis ing gaze. Then with deliberate emphasis he said:
 Why should you move in an investi- gatioA, Mrs. Maynard? The reason is obvious; to clear yourself of all sus- plcion of complicity in this forgery,
 She started, and her lips grew ashen.
 Do they suspect me?" Her tone was scarcely audible; her breath came quickly in nervous. irregular gasps.
 "iiow can l tell, Mrs. Maynard" Whatever suspicious there may be in regard to this affair, they are safely locked up thus far in the wise brains of our opponents. You and I are not likely to be the first ones to hear of theln."
 There was :an unmistakable signifi- canoe in tone and words. He threw his head back with an indolent laugh. and looked up sharply to note the eff feet.
 A quicl1 color rose to her brow, sud den flash came i'll her brown eyes, a nervous irritability betrayed itself in her manner; but the source of this very Pcrceptible agitation he did not

in convincing the court, Hunter and ketchum, and the public generally, that the latter hypothesis is correct that the entire responsibility of this forgery rests upon myself Very good; suppose, then, that you consent to adopt this measure, which Is certainly open to you, and I agree to close my lips and make no sign; or. to make mat trrS pleasautrr all around. take myself off suddenly to Europe. In such a case your first step will be to move at once in an irlvcstiS ation."
 North spoke slowly and distinctly. realizing all the daring of this venture, all the disastrous consequences of q false move. He was ncrvcd for any re suit. prepared for an atlrOit change of base if Mrs. Maynards countcnancc or manner should warn him that he had gone too far in his assumptions. He had hardly expected this; yet he was not prepared for the overwhelming confirmation that his suspicious now re- ccived.
 While he was speaking those last words he saw sudden quiver seize her whole frame as if a powerful electric current had passed through her; the
 
 listlessly relaxed were intcrlaced now in convuIsive clasp that caused their sparkling rings to send out quivcring rays of light; she turned so white that even her lips were perfectly colorless. Breaking off abruptly in her restless pacing, she turned to North with pas sionate cageracss and seemed to be on the point of addressing hlm, of utter Fl'l-.. h lips parted, but as if the look that she encountered from hls steady gray eyes, the conscious power of mystery that like an invisible atmosphere surrounded him. had frozen the words ere they we're uttered, the protest, demand, appeal whatever it was that had so nearly forced itself passionately upon him died on her lips. and only a faint, quiv- cring sigh escaped them. Then she sank down in chair, still white as death; all her cold self possession, all her magnificent hautcur replaced by q look of pitiful despair. If ever proud woman's heart could break, then surely in that moment Mrs. Maynard must have felt the bitterness of that ex pcricnce.
 Was it fear? Was it remOrse? Or what was the emotion that had thus strangely unncrved her? North could only speculate, the certainty lay beyond his present reach.
 A death-li!Ie silence fell upon the room. It became oppressive to North he finally spoke again, his low voice ringing out on the stiffness i'll clear de cisive tones:

feel justified, at that point, in definite ly assuming. His own suspicion how ever, remained unshal1en, and he deter mined to hold resolutcly to the slight advantage already gained. and, if pos siblc, to push it still farther.
 Now consider, Mrs. Maynard,'' he resumed, ill an argumentative way, consider how the ease must look to our opponents. You are the claimant, the person in whose interest this will was forged Mir North is your con iideutial legal adviser, presumably the person by " hom your whole course has been dictated. 1t has already been cs- tablishcd that the New York lawyers who represented you in court, Messrs Hopkins and Shepherd. are in no man. ncr connected with the forgery Prac- tically. then, this divides the responsi- bility between the claimant and her confidential legal adviser At the very outset, however, arise two separate and distinct hypotheses. either of which is sufficiently plausible. First, that you ere fully aware of the character of thas will before it was discovered in cOur.-in fact, when it was first put foryv; rd in support of your clai1n-and GlSI SiLltt " AlI4-lS5 SLIO ILC COIi- spiracy by which it was produced; CT, secondl. that you are the innocent vic tim of a scheming and dishonest law yer-nyself. for instance-who. not having the fear of the law before his eyes, forged t. $ will by his own un- added efforts, pa med it off upon you as q genuine document, and boldly carried u into court. Have you followed mo clearly thus far, Mrs. Maynard? Do you quite comprehend my neaning?''
 He broke off anxiously here and awaited her response.
 Mrs. Maynard was again restless1y pacing the floor with head slightly boTed and hands clasped listleasly be- fore her. One moment of silence in- terEelcd between North's question and her answer; then, turning and looking gravely al him, she said:

 She turned from him with the words and continued her slow pacing. North reflected gravely upon her answer; then, failing to make anything satisfac- tory of it, he hastened his meditated coup d'etat.
