WOMAN WHO HIDEs HORSEBACK,

equestrienne Who has appeared daily

and astride. Her identity was Known

hair dressed pompadour, and her blue
eyes flashing with exhilaratiun. clad
IN cl!nging wrapper, wearing neither
nat nor gloves, she goes forth daily for
an equestrian stunt that astonishes
the avenue. The identity Of the fair
horsewoman has finally become known
to the public at large. She is Miss
Jessie Goodpasture and belongs to an
excellent family She knows a good
horse when she sees one, but she never
refuses ride on any animal that is
offered, no matter. how sorry plug

self, was the guilty person, it could
scarcely have affected her more. Her
cheeks grew white, her lips parted, and
her eyes assumed beseeching look OF
terror. Lady Hope hastily pushed a
chair behind her. and drew her down
upon it.
Really, Alice, you are very foolish
to allow yourself to be excited about
nothing" she demonstrated; you
would have fallen on the floor in an
other minute. What harm is there in

room? You are not Chartis.. or Q
Mormon-or whatever the people call
themselves, who profess to object to
oaths, on principle"
The officers eyes were still keenly
fixed on Alice Seaton's, and she cow
cred visibly beneath his gaze.
will you assure me, on your sacred
word, that no person did enter the
room?" he repeated, in low, firm
tone, which somehow carried her to
the terrible belief that he believed that
she was trifling with him.
She looked at him, gasped, and
looked again; and then she raised her
handkerchief in her hand and wiped
her damp and ashy face.
II think some one did come in,
and recollect." And Alice fell back in
Mysteries.
Lady Sarah led her from the room,
herself speedily returning to it.
You see how weak and nervous Miss
Seaton is" was her remark to the Off
GER, but glancing at her husband. "She
has been an invalid for years, and is
not strong like other people. 1 felt
sure we should have scene of some
kind; that is why I wished the investi-
cation not to be gone into hurriedly."
Don't you think there are good
grounds for an Investigation, sir?" tes-

"Of course, you hear, my lady. The

The detective smiled. When men
are as high in the police force as he,
they have learned to give every word

clue to the thief, Colonel; 1 said a clue
to the mystery"

There was silence of surprise; on

strong language.

AN UNEXPECTED VISIT.
Rsssuresful studsat Took Advantage d

Rsseureeful Studedt Took Advantage o.
In s.dsnt's Grammatical krrOr.
Some one has said that 'tsct Is
mere facility in having pictures Of
ones relatives set out in sight when
ever they call and out Of sight when
everyone else calls" This practice
Of expert manipulation, says the New
York Independent, must be carried
out in many more particulars in case
of calls from professors on students
in their rooms, The only member of
our faculty who ever made such calls
on US was Prexie. Prexie was a mild
man, but fastidious and critical. Con-
s%equently, his anticipated visits were
occasions for what Aunt Chloe would
have called "a bustlin', clearin,-up
spell"
Such clearing-up meant that GER
tain articles of dress-and undress-
must be gathered from the floor, orna-
ments reaped from walls and stored
beneath the mattress, visiting stu
dents shut up in clothes presses, i'm
plements Of play or pastime loaded in
cupboards, the proper text-books
opened at the proper pages and spread
out in proper places, and a veritable
scene Of student revelry transmitted
into one Of quiet study. Two minutes
was considered time enough for this
and three would have been ample
warning. But, alasl too often this
short space was narrowed down to the
few seconds that elapsed between a
sound Of rapping on the door outside
and the normal echo of "Come in"
Because that fun for others went
along with such confusion for one
man, false warnings we're given some
times and thereby tricks were played.
They could not be played twice, how
ever, on the same man, for, once de-
ceived, he was deluctant ever to take
areal warning. This reluctance often
was productive of as much fun as
prompt acq~uiescence, for If a real Wis
itor got in at such time he found the
real scene.
In one instance, however, it long
remained an open question just where
the confusion fell. Bob Clarke was
sitting in his room one day. His feet
were on the table and-but all the
scene may better be imagined than de.
scribed. A gentle rap came on The
door outside and Bob called out
"Who's there?" A voice outside re,
piled: "lt's me, the president" Bot
remained seated and called out: cav
go way, you bungling blunderer
Where's your GRAMMAR? Been in col
lege four years not to know good Eng
lish? Prexie would have said: 1T il
r." Two statements bring the mar
rative to an abrupt conclusion; first
the person did go away without enter
ing; secondly, it was the president.
