silence.

part Of prudence to take reasonable

from his high horse finally SO far as to
allow the private inquiry agent to act
as he had proposed.

sure of a welcome. Mr.. Albee's force
of half a score were all reasonably

ers. They were introduced to the regu-
lar guests as members of a bachelors

ceived, by the fairer portion at least,
literally with open arms. Needless to
say that no hint OF the dangers which
had occasioned their presence was suf-
fered to transpire. Nobody not, IN the

tel read with an indulgent smile this
warning telegram sent him by a Boston
friend.
I'm decidedly too old a bird to be
caught with chaff," he said. confidently,
If not with striking originality. He had
been in the hotel business more than a
day. He had seen ~chevaliers Of Indus
try before. Not the widest Of them all
could dupe him, he tiattered himself.
Moreover, there being a score OF hos
telries in Bragg Harbor, 1t seemed I'M
likely that his own, ten miles distant,
would be chosen by the alleged suspl-
cious characters as a field OF enter
prise.
Next day there was brought in to the
manager at his desk a card bearing the
name of James Albee, Private Inquiry
Agent" with the addendum urgent

caller proved to be a smallish. brisk
motioned, sharp-eyed man, who lost
no time in j%ustifying his intrusion.

voice carefully lowered: I'm on the

to just quietly gobble up these gentle

ITO be sure" assented the caller
gocd-humoredly; still it does no harm
to be forewarned, and If there Should
be trouble so that an arrest became
necessary, wouldn't it be sort Of handy
for you to have me here to do the ar
resting? Your hotel is crowded to the
caves with swells who've got heaps Of
money and valuable jewelry and all
that. Your own safe Is stuffed with

seems are about to undertake the for
midabls task Of removing their house
hold from Carlton House Terrace to a
new abode in the neighborhood of Carl
ton Gardens.
They have lived in their present
stately mansion, with its elevated posi-
ton and fine view over the Mall and
st. James park, since Mr.. Choate's ap-
pointment to London foul OF five years
ago.
Their new home, though only a few
yards distant, has not the same splen-
did situation, being placed at right
angles to the terrace.
The old house, however, will doubt
less see next season a return of the
American colony's gayeties, for the
owner, Lord Curzon, is returning with
his American wife from India for a
short holiday at home.
1t was at first thought that the duke
Of Richmond's fine house in the Bel
grave squar might have become the
new Choate residence, as it is quite
near the embassy, but Mrs. Choate was
particularly attached to the somewhat
austere neighborhood Of Carlton House
Terrace, and is delighted at having
been able to secure the Carlton Gardens
house, which, by the bye, was once the
residence of Mr.. A. J.. Balfour. the
prime minister.

from their own fields, for the twisters that
have prevailed In this section Of the state
his summer have cut some queer antics.
The first violent blast was at Mendoza,
where a wide swath was cut through the
town, blowing down houses, pulling trees
by the roots or breaking the trunks as If
they had been pipe stems and killing five
people.
Later another disturbance Of the ele-
ments blew down a circus tent and killed
one of the pioneer scouts who had fol-
lowed Fremont across the country in his
historic expedition.
The articles that have been picked up In
the fields form a curious collection, and
when the finds Of all Of the collectors are
put together they form a veritable mu-
scum. One farmer has a wedding skirt

The Pavilion dances had gained n
reputation sufficient to draw at least
a moderate number OF young men from
the many potent attractions of BraSg
Harbor. Such was the case at pres
ent, although, as it CHANGED. only a few
of the visitors were personally known
to Manager Harvey. They looked to be
all right. however, and If Albee sus-
pected otherwise, he did not feel war
ranted in saying SO.
1t happened that there was an unusu-
ally strong reason for lavish caparison-
ing among the fair Inmates of the Pa
vilion-nothing less than the expected
presence of a dozen officers from II. Nj.
S. Terpsichore, just then lying off the
harbor. The stay OF the British cruiser
was limited, and until a late hour there
had been fears that the invitation to
the hop would be declined. But shortly
after 8 O'Clock had COM q message of
acceptance which was followed before
9 o'clock by the arrival of a steam
launch with a small but select delega-
ton from the Terpsichore. The party
of Englishmen had been in the ball
room only a few minutes when Albee
found occasion to draw Harvey aside
for a few words in confidence.
IT thought I'd just put you on your
guard" he whispered, with a slight but
significant jerk of his hea toward the
dancing floor; 1T may be a false alarm,
out those naval chaps-it looks a little
queer, don't you think?"
What looks queer? What the deuce
are you driving at, MANI" asked Har-
vey, not understanding him in the
least.
why, don't you see.' the detective
exclaimed. as If rather painfully sur
prised at the managers o~btuseness.
first hey send word they can't come,
and then at the last minute they con-
tradict it and say they can. Don't that
strike you as looking suspicious-as II
they might be bogus, eh?'
"Impossible!" cried the other, in a
tone of contemptuous disbelief.
ooh, we'll, maybe" returned Albee.
with palpably pretended dubiousness,
but I heard from a sure source that
the Terpsichore was to leave very early
tomorrow, and When I find that those
fellows have managed to get off 1T
strikes newell. no matter; of course
we can't take any steps unless were
dead sure. 1t wouldn't do to unde
in a case like this-it might end in a
wal with England. or"
You're too confouadedly suspicious
altogether" broke in the manager i'm
patiently; nevertheless he went away a
little troubled = mind.

She Had Her Ticket.

Detroit Tribune: She was going on a
journey-the first she had ever taken
alone. At least that was the inference
naturally deduced from her actions.
She was reading and trying to look
like an old traveller when the conductor
came along.
Ticket, please" said the conductor.
ooh, yes, l have one" she answered,
brightly. That's all right; it's safe"
Lei me see it, please"
She looked startled.
"Do-do you nave to see it?" she asked.
II can't let you ride unless l see your
ticket" explained the conductor.
IL never thought of that" she said,
nervously. Everyone cautioned me
against losing it, SO L"
so you promptly lost it?"
"Oh, no; l have 1t. l told you SO before,
I know just where it is, but"
She locke up at him anXiously, but the
conductor was obtuse. Perhaps he was
not a married man.
"Oh, what's that?' she exclaimed sud-
denly, pointing.
There was a swish of skirts as he looked
in the direction indicated. When he ooked
back at her, wonderingly, she was hold
ing the ticket out to him.
Take your old ticket" she cried, hot
ly, "and l hope you and your mean old
road will go to smash" ..
