THOMAS DECLINES TO STATE THE
DRIES.
About ten o'clock on Monday morn
ing a telephone message came over
the wires from the chief of police at
Lynn to the Boston police headquar-
ters which seriously interfered with
the habitual imperturbability of In
spector Applebee.
Whatever does this signify?" he

tone of surprise. How could that

Applebee declared. "She left the house
some time last evening They did not
discover her absence till this morn

borhood traces her to the railroad sta
ton. where she took the last train for
Boston"
That's a queer family, anyhow {"
commented the chief inspector, with
very puzzled air. "Applebee, have

ALL BLAcKED THEIR FACES.
From Chief officer Down Torpedo
Boat Men Cover Their
White Skins.

The whole world has lately been
reading of torpedo attacks and how,
through the black waters and in the
shadow of night, one vessel can creep
up and deal awful destruction to an
other. But few of those who have
been reading about these attacks know
what curious efforts are made to pro-
cure invisibility on the part of those
who direct the deadly torpedoes,
In our own navy, says London TIT
Bits, even during the annual maneu-
vers, there is one torpedo-boat order
that is all but unknown to the geneval
public, and this order is: 'All hands
black faces!" When that order is
given every soul on board the torpedo
boat, from the chief officer to the low
est in rank of the men, blacks his face
after the manner of the average mig
ger" minstrel; indeed, the stock of
pigments usually kept for the purpose
is obtained from some purveyor OF
stage requisites. And the result is
vastly effective, for, even on the black
est night, a white face can be almost
seen at once, standing out from the
surrounding gloom, by eyes that are
pretty well accustomed to the dark
ness.
AS far back as the days of Nelson
the boarding-parties that used to do
such acts of desperate valor in cutting
out expeditions all had their faces
BACKED when a night attack was
planned, and, however unheroic it may
seem, every man nowadays going to
what may be an awful death on a tor
pedo-b boat attack is as black as any
sweep; even hands, arms and neck be-
ing included in the blackening process

The doctor gave Atkins the money.
