The exclamation was caused by my
sudden appearance as I rose to my full
height and walked toward her

We then returned In a body to the
basement. and with no great difficulty
eXtricated the miserable little count
from the largest dress basket in the
store. It had been arranged for this
occupation during the. daylight hours,
where he could lie concealed literally
like jack-in- the-box while there was
business done in the stOreroom. At
night he was free to come and go as
he pleased, and he made, as we have
seen the best use Of his time.
When he was captured full set Of

in his possession, and, what was more
to the purpose, the whole Of the val

GOSSIP FROM GOTHAM.

Mrs. Burke Roche, when out for
walk, almost always is accompanied by a
fine white terrier, who wears a blanket Of
black cloth. ornamented with bright vel
low braid. The terrier and his mistress
attended an auction sale of Oriental por-
ceIains one afternoon this week in COM
pany with F. K. SturgiS, who Is an en-
thuSiastic collector of china. They came
early and remained until the sale ended.
The terrier curled up on a camp chair
next to Mrs. Roche and with aristocratic
disdain paid not the slightest attention
to what was going on. He did not even
look interested in the curious marks his
mistress was making on the catalogue
she held in her lap, nor at the waving
walking stick Of the other member of the
party. Mr.. Sturgis is different from most
of the amateur collectors who attend auc-
tfon sales. In making their bids they
nod their heads at the auctfoneer or sig
nal gently with their catalogues, and they
hide their Identities behind fictitious
names. Mr.. Sturgis, on the contrary
usually sits in a conspicuous place, makes
his bids by waving his malacca walking
stick vigorously, and never fails to give
his name in full as a buyer.

felts jewels, some Of them gems Of
European celebrity, had been carried
off, spirited away, without a cleW to
their disappearance. Her suite, her

major-domo, had been in her service
for years, and were altogether above
suspicion. The hotel servants were
highly respectable people; there was
nothing to indicate that the house had
been entered from without, for all the
fasten1ngs to doors and windows had
been found intact on the morning the
robbery was discovered.
Yet the jewel box In it's own travel
ing safe In the baroness bedroom had
been forced by a skilled hand and the
whole of the contents swept up and
purloined.
Such a grave event as this could not
be kept secret. 1t ran like wildf1re
through the town and beyond There
was a dead set made at the hotel. Peo-
pie came over in crowds from the
neighboring resorts in carriages and on
motors, the restaurant was full at
luncheon time, the hall was thronged
all the afternoon, and everyone was
talking Of the robbery.
Among the rest pretty Countess UI1-
man arrived, estensibIy to go to her
boxes, but really to enjoy the fun, as
she called it, smiling malicfously and
growing gayly at her great good luck
in leaving this den of thieves before
she was deSpoiIed.

lot Of trfnkets," she said to her great
friend and chief admirer, Prince
Reithel. They'll be taking your high
ness crown jewels next, if you're not
careful"
ooh. but L am. countess. They are
all in safe, keeping at my uncle's,'
laughed the light hearted little vaurien
Two nights later there was a second
great coup, and now the hotel proprie-
tors were vietimized. The result of
the first robbery had been to fill the
hotel safe with the most precious pos
sessions Of the chief guests, and now
some one-no doubt the same auda-
cfous hand-had rided it. picking out

Herr CAM, the hotel director, was in

proprieters must go bankrupt. He fair
