having little now save a
friendly interest in Edith,
had made Lester feel happy,
except for the haunting
fear that he had offended
his divinity beyond for

certain great statesman,
was "a child in these mat
ters," and he had never
learned the golden rule that
no one should fall in
love for the first time. And
so, when he found himself
almost in the presence of
his lady-within that sub

- Arncliffe Hail. True to his instincts he
lurked more or less among the bordering bushes.
To do him justice, he acted SO that he could see
without being seen. That Illuminating experience
with Leigh had not been lost upon him.
But when he caught sight of Lester and Brad
shaw coming along arm in arm there was no neces-
sity for concealment; so he ran out and waved
them a triumphant greeting. I've got him!" he
cried. i've got him!
"Got whom?" asked Bradshaw, as they came
up. Have you indeed tracked the fell of
night to her nest at last
'Oh, YOU may chaff SIR cried Brading cheerily.
ANYWAY, l have laid by the heels the man who
knocked Mr. Angler on the head and l think 1
have got hold of the who murdered Lord
Arnc1iffe He is one and the same person-Mr.
Harry Warren and if Harry Warren does not
stretch a rope pretty soon you may call me an
idiot!'
But" said Bradshaw mildly 81 have called
YOU an idiot all the time. No doubt you are right
about Warren; at the time, if you are SO sure
of YOUR man, l want to know why in thunder you
cast suspicion Miss Holt?
Brading smiled in what he thought to be superior
manner my dear SIR he said with "a touch OF
condescension "you don't understand the methods
of the force. l simply pretended to suspect Miss
Holt in order to throw Warren off his guard"
''Then you always believed him to be the real
culprit?'
II never had doubt from the first. The trouble
was that hadn't scrap OF evidence to act upon
''Brading' said the American earnestly you
are wasted in an effete country like this. Come
with me to New-York I'm big man there
bigger than you'd guess-and I'll guarantee you'll
be bossing police headquarters inside of six
months"
But" murmured Brading deprecatingly,
'wouldn't the appointment of a foreigner like me
cause lot of jealousy?'
Foreigner! My dear Bradng, artistic per-
verter of the truth like you cannot selfsh1y be
claimed by any one country. He belongs to human
ity."
The detectives inordinate vanity often led
him into the traps prepared for him by Bradshaw
that he had ceased to acknowledge compliments of
the sort with anything more than siclly smile.

Yorker batting him on the shoulder. Il once met

MT. Williams replied that while he managed te control pretty much everything in that vicin- ity he had never been able to exert much of an influence with the wea- ther.

 It had eveidently been the generals idea that the wind mill was a gigantic electric fan kept running for the agita tion of, the atmosphere in that vicinity.
 This incident was related at Mari copa to Col. Jerry MifIay who arrived there in the morning.

Charged by Railroad Commissioner
 With Lying and Perjury.

Deadwood. $. D., Aug. T.-At the convention today of the National Rail . way Commissioners association, Stett Burr, commissioner from Florida. created a sensation when he openly denounced Walker D. Hines, former assistant general counsel and now first vice president of the Louisville and Nashville railroad, as a liar and a per jurer. He said that Hines made d sworn statement of the valuation of the property of the Louisville and Nash vile railroad to the comptroller of the state of Florida for the purpose of taxation, for the year ending June 90, 1902. He says he later made another sworn statement to the commissioners of Florida on the value of the property for the same year for rate making purposes and which was much greater.
 Later he says Hines made another sworn statement of the value of the property of the same year, when ap- plying for a. temporary injunction In the United States district court to en- join the commission from enforcing a reduction in passenger rates, which was double the statement made to the commissioners or to the comptroller. Burr asked the national railroad com missiOners not to give any credit to a statement made by Hines before the commission of congress-. Benjamin F. Chadbourne. a railroad commissioner of Maine made a heated reply to the charges.
 Discussions of questions of railway taxation in the various states aroused the greatest interest thus far manifest ed. Charle T. Staples of Minnesota presented a report which showed that 4l- which taxes were levied varies in diff ferent states from $94 in South Dakota to $1,366 in Massachusetts and that there are over half dozen methods at arriving at a basis of taxation in the various states.
