saw our first recognition of
this crime as the work of We

tice appeared in the Star and all the
other local Journals:

was e." and I was soon deep in
business. But I was readily able to
identify those who came from curios-
ity, and as the persons who had really
fulfilled the conditions expressed in
my advertisement were few an evening
and mornings work sufficed to sift the
whole matter down to the one man
who could tell me just what I wanted
to know. With this man 1 went to the
major. and as a result we all met later
in the day at Mr.. Moore's door.
This gentleman looked startled enough
when he saw the number and charac-
ter Of his visitors, but his grand air did
not forsake him, and his welcome was
both dignified and cordial. But l did
not like the way his eye rested on me.
But the slight venom visible in 1t at
that moment was nothing to what he
afterward displayed when at 4 slight
growl from Ridge, who stood in an
attitude of offense in the doorway be-
yond, l drew the attention Of all to the
dog by saying sharply:
There is our witness sirs. There is
the dog who will not cross the street
even when his master calls him, but
crouches on the edge Of the curb and
waits with eager eyes but immovable
body till that master comes back. Isn't
that so, Mr.. Moore? Have not heard
you utter more than one complaint in
this regnrd?"

'Tt is; 1 noted him particularly; he
seemed to be watching the opposite

Instantly turned upon Mr.. Moore.
''Is Ridge the dog to do that" l
asked, 'If his master were not there?
Twice have 1 myself seen him in the
selfsame place and with the selfsame
air of expectant attention, and both
times you had crossed to the house
which you acknowledge he will ap-
proach no nearer than the curb on this
side Of the street.

The smile with which he said this
was sarcastic enough, but it was sar-
casm directed mainly against himself.
We were not surprised when, after
some sharp persuasion on the part of
the major, he launched into the fol-
lowing recital Of his secret relation to
what he called the last tragedy ever
likely TO occur in the Moore family.

thought it wrong to be curious about

Il did not dislike Mr.. jeffrey or ques-
