A YANKEE TRICK

fOrsinall
In high life there are cases where
a person is admitted 10 the swim
while his or her family are unrecog-
nized Miss Beyan was such a person.
Why she was admitted was plain
enough. She possessed the component
parts Of a BELIEVE, a high bred APP
pearance, cougtly manner, the faculty
Of ignoring people out Of the set with
ont appearing to DO so ana a talent
for using people. Having these, 1t was
possible for her to get along without
wealth
Miss Beyan was one of the guests at
Mrs. Langworthy's cottage" An old
English duke. accompanied by bis SON.
the son man Of thirty had come over
to visit America, and the two had been
secured By Mrs. Langworthy for visit
during the season. The Duke Of Pep
percorn, the father, possessed immense
estates in England, and at his death
the son, Lord Lightly would inherit
he title and the estates. Miss Bevan
determined to concentrate all her
Establishments in one supreme effort to
secure the son.
Il WISH said Mrs. Langworthy to
Miss Beyan, ITO post you with regard
to the duke. lie suffers under form
OF mania. He is a kleptomaniac, His
son is very sensitive about his fathers
defect and, though he takes the great
est pains to return everything his
father steals, will not listen to any or
binary discussion Of constitutional
blight They say it runs in the family,
only cropping out with age"
Miss Beyan, being of an ingenious
mind, set herself to turn this knowl-
edge TO account 1t was not long be-
fore she had formed plan. One morn
ing when a yachting party was pro-
posed Miss Bevan at the last moment
was attacked by an indisposition and
remained behind She kept her room
till She saw through her window the
yacht standing out at sea. then opened
her door and looked into the hall, The
doors and windows Of the bedrooms
were all open for airing, but there were
no servants about. Stepping back into
her room, she took from a bureau
drawer a brooch necklace and a
bracelet, besides other smaller articles
Of jewelry. then. going again into the
hall, speedily ran 10 the dukes bed
room, the location Of which she had
noted. An ocean breeze blew III at the
window. airing the bedclothes, which
were thrown over the footboard. and

was hanging on the back Of chair.
Miss Bevan slipped her jewels into a
pocket of the trousers and went back
to her room.
The party returned In time for din
ner, ana Miss Bevan, having recovered

Mr.. BABCoCK is Chairman of the Re-
publican Congressional Campaign Com
mittee, and, as such, is expected to be
more conversant with conditions affecting
the makeup of the next House of Repre-
sentatives than with the Presidential stu
alton. For that reason the following
statement made by him to the Washington
correspondent of New York paper may
rightly be regarded as significant:
"There is no use in saying black is
white. AS the situation stands to-day,
the indications are that the Republicans
will elect the President and Nose the
House."
AS Mr.. Babcock has never been more
than half right on any subject that he has
been known to discuss, the latter half Eof
his statement will be accepted without
question. The former half will be dis
proved in the early part of November.
