commendAtion will show:

curious and wonderful power. Yet
this is just exactly what Mr.. Day does

by the same detective was that of young couple who had too much time and money for. their own good. The man in the comedy was employ ed in a bank, the woman was the daughter of a wealthy stock yards man. After the honeymoon they got just little bit tired-of each other, and to give variety 10 a life of ease both began to answer personal advertisements in certain Sunday newspapers. Neither had the least attention of doing anything wrong-all they wanted was a little fun. But playing with fire is a dan- gerous thing. By and by Mr.. Man formed the acquaintance of a little widow fond of congenial companion ship" and Mrs. Man became quite chummy with a stranger in the city who wishes to meet a refined lady un- der 30 The friendships thus formed never ripened into intimacy, but both MT. and Mrs. Man began to suspect each other, and thought the time had arrived to collect testimony" Bright and early one Monday morning Mr. Man appeared at the detectives office and told his tale of woe. An hour or two later Mrs. Man arrived and related her troubles. The detective. who had been schoolmate of Mrs. Mans father, concluded to clear the atmosphere by acting as the private. adviser of both. He told MT Man to insert an adver- tisementr in the Sunday newspaper which had caused all the wrangiing z soliciting the ''acquaintance of a pre- possessing young lady to accompany the advertiser, a young man of irre- proachable character, to the opera" Then he advised Mrs. Man to use the columns of the same paper, for the purpose of forming the acquaintance of distinguished-lcoking gentleman of fine social position" Having baited the trap, the detective advised the two slllies to answer each others advertise ments. Both appointed the parlors Of downtown hotel as the meetir q place; and the detective was on hand to introduce them to each other. The absurctity of the denCuement was su- perb, and taught two young fools les- son which they have not yet forgotte
 To show the meanness to which some of these private detectives will resort to make business it is only necessary to make mention of a case which was brought to light during recent di- vorce trial. Mrs. Jones. a charming young married woman, who, to use a colloquial phrase, was completely wrapped up in her husband. had a brother noted among his companions as an inveter2tc gambler and race

can 'cut up capers' without much risk of being discovered.
 The regular detective fills a useful place. He protects society against thieves and lawbreakers and brings violators of the statutes to justice. The private detective. on the other hand, promotes violations of social laws and rarely appears in any other than the divorce court. In the course of a suit for separate maintenance re- gently tried before a Chicago judge an unjustly accused husband charac terized the sleuth who had collected the fimsy evidence produced against him as q 'scavenger among moral b,acklegs and prince of liars"
 Occasionally one encounters a pri- vate detective who is an exception to the rule, who is truly helpful to his employers and valuable member of society,". Such was the commendable character of the man employed by q well-known Chicago physician who had received number of anonymous letters assailing the reputation of his wife, in whom, by the way, he had perfect faith. The doctor suspected one of his neigh bors of the author ship of the scurrilous letters, and en- gagged the detective to collect evidence against him.
 The detective at once declared that the anonymous communications were written by a woman,I and that the chirography bore no resemblance to that of the gentleman suspected by client. By sheer accide nt he picked up a little note in the doctors office, the writing in which attracted his atten- ton. He compared it with the libelous documents and at once jumped to the conclusion that both were written by the same person. An hour later he again called on his client and learned that the note had been written by the doctors own wife. Without commit ting himself, he called on this iady and boldly accused her of being the au- thor of the letters defaming herself. She broke down and confessed. When questioned as to the motive of her strange act she explained that her husband had formed the habit of spending his earnings at the club and neglecting her, and that she thought that by arousing his jealousy she might be able to keep

TO STRAIGHTEN LACkAWANNn. Proposed Railroad ChanGes-Wil
 Shorten the Line to BuEalo.5

NEW YORK, Dec. Tt is said at the offices of the Lackawanna railroad in Ho- boken that important changes are to be made on the main line of the system. This now starts from Hobcken and runs to Dover by way of Paterson and Boon ton. From Dover it runs to HackettS- town, at which point it turns southwest and runs to Washington. At that place 1t turns back toward the northwest again to Delaware Water Gap. Between Wa terloo and the Gap the road makes an, ai- most perfect "N,' with Washington as the lower point. The main feature of the proposed alteration is the striking of an air line, or as nearly so as the nature of the country will permit, from Waterloo to the Gap. The corps of engineers are at work on this, surveying the land and lecting the route.
 It is said that the line as proposed will require the cutting of q tunnel two miles long. Besides this shortening of the line, which it is estimated will reduce the run ming time from Hoboken to Buffalo by A or 50 minutes it is said that numerous curves are to be strengthened on the line of the road and that some of the sleeper grades are to be reduced by trestling or cuts. Beyond the Water Gap other exten- siye improvements in the line of shorten ing the running time are said to be under consideration.
