returned verdict In accordance with
the indications.
But why had Charley Hooper ended
his own life? This question bothered
me considerably, even long after had
left the company.
Fifteen years later learned all the
facts. l was stopping at one OF the
principal hotels In Michigan city at
the time.
One evening. while enjoying my GUS
tomary smoke in the rotunda. was
surprised by the old route agent. We
had not met for several years and nat
urally our conversation turned to
events In which we took somewhat
mutual interest.
Hooper" he said, was In bad
shape with the company when he
ended his life. His stealings ran
away up into the thousands. We were
hot on his trail just about the time OF
his death, and w~nld soon have had
the evidence to arrest him. He had
wealthy relatives In England. who
afterwards paid the money to the
company In order to remove the stain
from the family name
Tho reason that Hooper had left
the money In the strong box that
morning was this: He had already
determined to die by his own hand.
He receipted for the money and
handed you the keys so that you could
take the money and become a rich
man. Had you done so, suspicion
would never have attached to you.

A Boy of wolfish Habits.

In India, few years ago, wolf and
her litter were noticed drinking at the
water edge, and among the latter was
observed q small Hindu boy, appar-
emily on the most amicable terms with
the beasts Of which he formed por-
ton. Being caught, the child was
taken charge of by an officer and kindly
treated He was not an idiot, but could
never be taught to speak. until on his
death bed, few months later, the
memory OF his earlier life among hui
man beings seemed to return to him,
and he uttered few words intelligibly
The history OF the wolf boy was never
fully ascertained, though some people
in the neighborhood recognized him
as village child whose elder brother
had been carried of by wolves. He
loved to gnaw bones and to take his
food out OF the same dish with a lit
tie dog, while his wolfish habits were
shown in dislike for human society,
or any but retired spots. and an alb
horrence OF clothing.

at the receipt book again and found
that they had been receipted for by

When l arrived at the train that
night the west-bound messenger asked
me II l had heard OF Hooper. Hooper

left the train at some way station.
The officials OF the company were now

remembered that silence about such
matters was one of the injunctions Of
the company.
When / returned to the office the
agent had already been informed OF
Hoopsr's strange disappearance. The
route agent was there making urgent
inquiries. and was informed about the
packages In the safe. He questioned
me about Hooper's demeanor that
morning. and l told him that had
noticed nothing unusual In his man

The next day the morning papers

terious disappearance. but not one
word about the money. 1t proved a
flrst-rate sensation. however. without
the latter feature For three days the
subject was the theme for gossip. The

any money.
