MAN WHO HOLDS THE TRAIN.

How would you like to be Mr.
Hyde?
The Hyde here referred to is Mr.
James H. Hyde of Equitable notorie-
ty, born to bonds and trust companies
and high FINANCE, eiver of Cambon
dinners on other peoples money, pos
er Of Frenchy ways.
Mr. Hyde is able to make passenger
trains stand still for half an hour
while the common people wait.
Among other things inherited by
this son of his father is large block
of stock in a railroad. And so Tho
other day when his valet awakened
Mr.. Hyde and said there was but five
minutes in which to make the Ola
train. Nh Hyde did not have palpita-
ton of the heart. He merely yawned
and asked for his dressing gown. He
then proceeded deliberately to the tel
cphone and told the station agent to
hold the train until he got there.
Whereupon MrHyde ordered his
valet to shave and dress his Hyde
ship.
The station agent told the conductor
and it was 9:44 when Mr. Hyde was
through with his toilet and appeared
at the station.
Common people protested.
Nothing doing.
Common people suggested that
good money had been paid for the pas
sage and that Mr. Hyde was not the
train dispatcher.
The conductor was sorry.
Also during the wait the question
was raised as to whether the road eX-
listed for the benefit of the public or
for Mr.. Hyde. Decidedly for Mr..
Hyde.
That being true the common people
should hereafter send gracious dep
utation, bearing gifts and the assur-
ance of its most distinguished cOnsid-
Grafton, humbly petitioning and ask
ing the early presence Of Mr.. Hyde.
Joshua made the sun stand still.
No telling what this modern Joshua
may halt if his regnant ways be dis
regarded.

with the keen sense of humOr and the

wife and Suzanne, absolutely under his
thumb. | then determined 70 land this
accomplished gentleman if possible, and
| gave him plenty of rope, listening
with babe-like innocence and interest TO
his story, which was most excellent of its
kind.
He had been playing the detective
himself. he said, had watched Suzanne
studying a list of steamer departures
which she obtained at the hotel desk.
Seeing her depart without permission in
a cab, he had followed, but had been
delayed through his imperfect English.
But he had seen her leave the pier in
company with man and had followed,
etc.
Has she confessed to you?" said l.

had fortune. Poor girl | cannot help

| him of the bracelet and he was staggered.
| He was eager to know if there was any
way of getting at the truth as to Suzanne,
and | gave him some encouragement but
not much.
The next thing that happened was the
arrest of Suzanne. Without any pre-
vious warning my detective marched into
| headquarters with her at eleven o clock
that morning. She was pale, resolute
and defiant Before questioning her |
wanted the story. l had her placed in a
certain waiting room and then got the
particulars.
''She left the hotel at nine o'clock, with
a small traveling-bag, said the detective.
"She took a cab and handed an address to
the driver written on a card. She drove
off and | followed her in another cab to a
North River pier She went on board
a Liverpool steamer about to start, and |
followed and took her into custody. In
stead of showing fight, she was quiet as
lamb. She seemed heartbroken over
something.
Don't take me away till the steamer
goes she begged, and of course | con-
| sented l wanted to see who else would
turn up We waited on deck by the
gang plank, but screened from the view
of anybody coming down the pier. She
kept her eyes strained for the sight of
some one, and as the time of departure
approached grew nervous and agitated.
She cried a little, wiped her eyes con-
vulsively and twisted her handkerchief
and dug her nails into it like a woman
in fear and agony She did not seem to
be afraid that her friend would be caught.
| She acted like woman in love that some
man had gone back on.
when the whistle blew she sank
down on the deck in a sort of collapse.
| spoke to her, but she did not seem to
hear me. | took her off the steamer,
put her in a cab and then she braced
up like you see her now. She kept
muttering to herself in Italian all the
way up here. She's going to make
trouble for somebody"
The case was clearing. With Suzanne
angry the truth was sure to come out. |
sent the detective up to the hotel to get
all particulars of what happened there,
and was just going to interview the girl
when an officer came in and said that a
man wanted to see the arrested woman.
This was excellent news. The man was
a foreigner, the officer said, an Italian. |
could not see him, as if it was Del BOnti,
as l supposed, he would learn my
identity, from having met me at supper,
and be on his guard.
Put him in the room with her." said
|. land close the door. Afterward bring
him here"
And then it was that | regretted the
absence of the Italian detective. The
room in which Suzanne had been placed
was used for a particular purpose. 1t
was an ordinary waiting room in appear
ance, with a table, chairs, bare walls and
bare floor and no other furniture or
pictures that might excite suspicion
But by simple contrivance connected
with the wall every word said in it above
a whisper could be heard clearly in a
room adjoining and taken down by
stenographer if necessary.
The moment the man entered the
room there was a scene. Suzanne was
like a tragedy queen. Such TRADE of
rage, love, upbraiding and despair mixed
together | never heard in my life She
