TOO jolly for anything l simply must
stay and hear his explanation. for he is
q very famous detective. and the con-
illusions he has arrived at must be most
interesting.
In the morning the diamonds arrived
per special messenger, who first took q
formal receipt for them and then most
sbsequiously took his departure. By the
same train came Mr.. Cadbury Taylor,
as modest as ever, but giving some In
dication in his bearing of the impor-
lance of the discovery his wonderful sys-
TEN had aided him in making. He
blandly evaded the curiosity Of Mr..
Briggs and said 1t would perhaps be
better to reveal the secret in the pres
ence of the prince and princess.
"Just what I suspected" muttered
Mr. Briggs, who had long been con-
WINGED that the prince had stolen the

HARDEST WORKED SEAMEN.
Firemen and COnI Pnsscrs Perform
the Most Ardnous and Re-
puIslve OF 1asks.

The stokers are the hardest working
of all classes of labor on board steam
ships. From intimate association with
them in their labor and from knowl-
edge Of low orders of labor on shore,
writes Is. Brandenburg, in Lcslie's
Magazine, / can say with out hesitation
that, as a class, ships tiremen and coal
passers or trmmers perform more
arduous and repulsive work than the
miners in thin veins in the anthracite
region, the miners in the hot mines Of
Montana, the glass blowers OF the gas
belt, or the grimy toiers in the rolling
mills. They receive proportionatcly
less pay. They usually work in four
hour watches, four on and eight OFF.
Their location is in front Of the firing
ends Of the battery Of ships boilers
or in the bunkers where the coal is
stored, both Of these being in the very
bowels of the ship. The quarters are
cramped, the air full Of noxious gases,
the light, the terrible glare Of tho
raging fires, and the temperature
ranging from 105 TO 140 degrees Fahr-
cnheit. The most that even the Cum
ard line pays picked fremen for their
mail boats is $40 per month. Tho
American line has its price regulated
at an average Of something over $50.
though at times 1t equals the best rate.

MINT IN THEIR COFFEE.
Mistake Of a Society Leader Taken
Cor the Real Thing by AM
bilious EN- ulatOrs.

That the advice, Watch how others
do and then do likewise" is not always
good to social aspirants, was illus
trated the other evening at a dinner
given by young matron in honor OF
guest of acknowledged social stand
ing, relates the Chicago Tribune.
When coffee was served, and with it
the indispensable chocolate minis, the
guest was seen to take one of the
sweets and toy with it gracefully over
her coffee cup. Instantly every wom-
an at the table did likewise. Evidently
some new wrinkle of fashion was about
to be exhibited. Every eye was on the
guest and on the mint drop. Determn-
alton to follow the leader and give no
sign that they were not in the habit of
doing this new trick every day was
written on every face. The sudden
calm caused the guest to look up, and
as she did so she inadvertently dropped
her mint into the tiny cup. To her sur
prise a series of clinks ran around the
table as each Of the rural ones followed
her mistake.
Approaching the situation, the guest
hastily gulped down her coffee to hide
her mirth.
Later in the evening she heard one
woman remark to another:
II don't care if it is swell, don't like
mint in my coffee"
ooh, dear" replied the other, loftily,
ut is really delicious. never think of
taking my demitasse without it,"

CALLS AMERICANS DUPES.
French Expert, Arnold Sellgman, De-
clares That Museums DIN This
Country Are Full Of Trash.

Two authorities on paintings and
antiquities, Sedelmayer and Selig-
man, of Paris, when asked as to the
genuineness of all the articles in j.
+. Morgan's collection, took occasion
to declare the Metropolitan museum
in New York full of trash.
81 cannot speak about the antique
ties" said Mr.. Sedelmayer, "but
with reference to the paintings, so
far as l know, there is nothing in
Morgan's collection that is not alb
solutely genuine"
Arnold Seligman said: $50 far as
remember Morgan's collection,
which 1 regard as one of the finest
in the world, has nothing spurious
in it. More than this cannot be said
of any other great collection. Do
you know, aside from the paintings
and one or two rare pieces of tapes
try, the contents of the Metropoli-
tan museum in New York might be
destroyed by fire and the world not
be tho loser.
II remember a pair of ball vases
there marked as Sevres which abso-
lutely never were made at r. Sevres'
factory.
"In my opinion there is a lot Of
trash in the building, and it is q
shame for New York to be so i'm
posed upon. Americans coming
abroad this summer might do well
to profit by the lessons of the recent
exposures in Paris and elsewhere Of
the enormous amount of taking in
old pictures and curios. Especially
is the kind in question to be found
in watering places. Art dealers are
familiar with the fact that a veal
thy American paid $4,000 last year
for spurious Rembrandt at AK les
Bains.
II know an American who pur-
chased for small sum at the same
place a piece of ware warranted as
Capo del Monte" Mr.. Seligman. who
has a commission from certain Amer.
leans to buy Capo del Monte. has
succeeded in getting hold of only
one piece in three years.

packet and going hastily toward the
girl. Miss Jennie stood with her back
to the wall. and, putting her hands be-
hind her, she said:
"No, no; you are not going to touch
