The natural reluctance which every
woman feels to consult q physician re.
garding troubles peculiar to her sex
caused Mrs. C.Weber, Of No. 1856 South
Front street, Columbus, Ohio, to let her
illness runNon until it became chronic,
and even the excellent doctor whom she
employed could give her no relief that
was permanent. She gives the follow.

/ Our Mysterious
} Passenger.
{5lbly3N9Bl1l51I neutrality-suspicious.
y BY ROBERT DAWSON RUDOLF.

THE last whistle had gone. the good
/ byes had all been said and the lit
tie tender. the final link between us
and Old England, was edging away
from our side. The great screw was
humping away at quarter speed and
we were slowly gliding down the river
Mersey when a little steam launch
darted after us and, bringing up along
side, allowed a man with a small bag
In his hand to leap on to the flimsy
platform, which was grudgingly low
cred for him from the great ships
side. t"The proverbial late passenger"
grumbled the old stagers, and then dis
appeared below to arrange their cabins
before dinner; while the green ones
stayed on deck and watched the low
shores gradually disappear in the dis
lance and gathering gloom.
I myself belonged to the former
class Of passengers and soon, having
donned SLOUGH cap. made my way
to the smoking room where, during
the many voyages which had to make,
most Of my waking hours were wont
to be spent. But quick as I was in
getting there, the late passenger had
already put in an appearance, and soon
he and / were talking away and dis
cussing the last news, which we would
have for some days-nothing of i'm
portance certainly; a small railway
accident, bank robbery and q
mysterious murder were the chief items
which the papers spread through many
columns. As regards the last item, the
rumor was that the murderer had been
tracked to Liverpool and it was sus-
pected that he would try to get away
by one Of the outward bound vessels.
"By Jove, I hope he is not on board
here" exclaimed my companion, as he
rang for drinks and prohered me q
second cigar.
Much travelling and mixing with my
fellow men have made me very chary
Of voluble strangers, but this man
seemed to be an exception and, before
We had been talking for an hour. we
were the best Of friends and had
exchanged cards and found mutual
acquaintances which made us remark,
as people always do on such occasions,
that the world was small. s*

and several loafers there are all grab
bing the stoker at once, while Smith
stands aside frvm his quondam friend
and coolly lights cigarette. q smile
of quiet triumph the while spreading
over his face and chasing away from It
the rascally hang-dog look which It had
worn for days.
We watched the stoker dragged,
struggling and horror stricken, to q
police van which was waiting near by,
aud then Smith, heaving what looked
like sigh Of contented relief, stepped
smiling up the gangway again into
our midst.
He made straight for the captain,
who stood as one dazed, and the two
disappeared into the latter's cabin, but
before long emerged laughing and the
best of friends. Then Smith mixed
with the passengers, all Of his old cheer
full manner once more upon him. and
soon we learned the truth Of his
strange doings.
It seems that he was detective
officer Of well-known Scotland Yard
repute. The authorities in London
had learned, as we had already heard,
that the murderer Of whom we had
read had got as far as Liverpool
and they thought that he would try
to escape on one Of the three vessels
sailing when We did. So an officer
was ordered to board each Of the
three steamers, and thus Detective
Officer Robinson (alias ]. A. Smith)
Travelled with us. He did not know
whether his quarry was on board at
all; much less did he know In what
capacity he would travel, and hence he
decided to make the acquaintance Of
every man on board, hoping thus to
come across his man. It will be re-
membered that the authorities had only
the most meager knowledge of the
murderer's appearance. We had been
at sea for nearly week and he had
suspected several Of the passengers,
myself amongst the number so he
said. before he came across the stow
away who was working as stoker.
Him he spotted in some way, and from
that moment stuck to him, AZ we had
seen. At the pilot station he was
afraid that he was going to lose him,
but, as we saw, persuaded the captain
to take him on to Quebec and himself
sent a cypher message to the police at
that port to be waiting for us.
When asked why he had not arrested
his man as soon as he had recog-
missed him, he replied that he had made
friends with him instead and had thus
extracted much evidence Of the mans
guilt.
How he soothed the ruined feelings
Of the ''old man" for not having con-
fded in him we never heard, but he
somehow succeeded thoroughly. and
as he shook hands all round and went
ashore for the second time, we raised
a cheer for our friend "Jim Smith, !"
who had suffered so much at our
hands.
He left Quebec that night on an
outward-bound mail steamer for Liver
pool with his man, and we heard
some time later that the murderer was
convicted and hanged for the perpetra-
ton Of as dastardly and cold blooded a
crime as had occurred in recent years.

Russia In the most passionate manner,
trying unwearicdly to embroil Germany
with Russia.
Continuing, the chancellor said that ac-
cordins tn the principles of international
Law hitherto prevailing. the sale of the
vessels OF a private firm to n foreign
state was admissible. In the case of the
Russian transports it was not to a state
but to private firms that the vessels were
sold. There could not be any question of
taxing sides against Japan. since the lat
ter also mad full power to buy vessels
from Germany.
The chancellor admitted that the Rus
sian students were expelled in accordance
with his orders because they exceeded
the reserve which foreign guests must
everywhere observe.
I'VE simply awaited ourselves Of the
rights he pointed out 'of a masterof
thc-house in turning out of doors guests
who make themselves obnoxious. Neither

lice nor 4 can permit rude language

The chancellor. continuing defended
CT rmanys representatives in the United
states from the charges of Count Won

their duties in protecting the rights Of
German citizens, and asserted that the
German representatives had not displayed
