An INTELLIGENT Bird.

a species Of woodpecker inhabits the
driest parts Of Mexico. where during
the droughts It must die Of starvation
unless 1t made a store To prevent this
1t selects the hollow stem Of a species Of
aloe. the bore of which is just large
enough to hold q nut. The woodpeckpr
drills holes at intervals in the stem and
fills it from bottom to top with the
nuts, the separate holes being apparent
ly made for convenience Of access to
the column of nuts within.
The intelligence which not only con-
structs special storehouse, but teaches
the woodpecker to lay by only the nuts,
which will keep, and not the insects,
which would decay, Is perhaps the
highest form Of bird reasoning which
has yet been observed.

A photograph had been taken of those marks, and my identification of this photograph closed my testimony.
 As returned to my seat stole a look toward 8 certain corner where, with face bent down upon his hand, Francis Jeffrey sat between Uncle Da- vid and the heavily yelled figure of Miss Futile.
 I was followed by the other detec- tives who had been present at the time and who corroborated my state ment as to the appearance of this un. happy woman and the way the pistol had been tied to her arm. Then the doctor who had acted under the coro- ner was called. After long and no doubt learned description of the bullet wound which had ended the life of this unhappy lady--a wound which he in- sisted, with marked display of learn ing, must have made that end instan- taneous or at least too immediate for her to move foot or hand after tt-he was asked if the body showed any other mark of violence.
 To this he replied:
 There was a minute wound at the base of one of her fingers, the one which is populaRly called the wedding finger"
 This statement made all the women present stare with renewed interest; nor was it altogether without point for the men, especially when the doctor went on to say:
 "The hands were entirely without rings. As Mrs. Jeffrey had been mar ried with a ring. noticed their ab- sence."
 "Was this wound which you charac- terlze as minute a recent one?"
 Tt had bled little. It was an abra- sion such as would be made if the ring she usually wore there had been drawn off with jerk. That was the impress sion received from it's appearance. I do not state that it was so made.''
 A little thrill which went over the audience at the picture this evoked communicated itself to Miss Futile, who trembled violently. It even pro- duced a slight display of emotion in MT. Jeffrey, whose hand shook where
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-09-09

he had detected slight stain of blood He had called MT. Jeffrey's attention to 1t, but that gentleman had made no comment.
 This remark had the effect of con- centrating general attention upon Mr. Jeffrey. But he seemed quite oblivi- ous of it; his attitude remained un- changed, and only frem the quick stretching out and withdrawal of Miss Tuttle's hand could it be seen that anything had been said calculated to touch or arouse this man. The coroner cast an uneasy glance in his direction; then he notioned Durbin aside and re- called Loretta.
 And now began to be sorry for the girl. It is hard to have ones weak nesses exposed, especially if one is more foolish than wicked. But there was no way of letting this girl off with

he pressed it against his forehead. But neither uttered sound nor looked up when the next witness was summoned.
 This witness proved to be Loretta, who, on hearing her name called, evinced great reluctance to come for ward After the coroner had elicited her name and the position she held in MT. Jeffrey's household he asked whether her duties took her into Mrs. Jeffrey's room. Upon her replying that they did, he further inquired if she knew Mrs. Jeffrey's rings, and could say whether they were all to be found on that lady's toilet table after the police came in with news of her death. The answer was decisive. They were all there: her rings and all the other ornaments she was in the daily IlabI! of wearing, with the exception of he. watch. That was not there
 Did you take up those rings?"
 ''No, sir"
 "Did you see any one else take them up?'
 NO, sir; not till the officer did so."
 ''Very well, Loretta. Sit down again till we hear what Durbin has to say about these rings"
 And then the man I hated came for ward, and, though I .shrank from ac- knowiedging it even to myself, I could but observe how strong and quiet and self possessed he seemed and how de cisive was his testimony.
 But 1t was equally brief. He had taken up the rings and he had looked at them; and on one, the wedding ring,

 Of course Loretta promised, but shs is not sure that she would have had the courage to keep all this to herself if she had not heard Mrs. Jeffrey stoI in Miss Tuttle's room on her way out That relieved her and enabled her tc go downstairs to her own supper witt more appetite than she had thought ever to have again.

. %wNHE days of my. obscurity were
 over. Henceforth I was re-
 garded as decided factor in
 this case--a case which from this time on assumed another aspect both at headquarters and in the minds of people at large. The reporters, whom we had hitherto managed to hold in check, now oyerdowed both the coroner's office and police headquar- ters, and articles appeared in all the daily papers with just enough sugges- tfOn in them to fire the public mind and make nle, for one, anticipate an imme- diate word from MT. Jeffrey calculated to establish the alibi he had failed to make out on the day we talked with him. But no such word came. His memory still played him false, and no alternative was left but to pursue the Edicial inquiry in the line suggested by xhe Interview just recounted.
 No proceeding in which I had ever been engaged interested me as did this Inquest. Tn the first place, the spec tators were of very different charac- ter from the ordinary. As I wormed myself along to the seat accorded to such witnesses as myself brushed by snen of. the very highest station and a few of the lowest and bent my head more than once in response to the in quiring gaze of some fashionable lady who never before, warrant, had found herself in such scene. By the time I reached my place all the others were Beated, and the coroner rapped for or der.
 I was first to take tbe stand. What I said has already been fully amplified in the foregoing pages. Of course, my evidence was confined to facts, but some of these facts were new to most of the persons there It was evident that a considerable effect was pro- duced by them, not only on the specta- tors, but upon the witnesses them selves. For instance, it was the first time that the marks on the manteIshelf had been heard of outside the majors office or the story so told as to make it evident that Mrs. Jeffrey could not have been alone in tue house at the lime of Der death.
