you. An the boy takes arter her. a

Purr significantly.
But why should I beware OF him z
asked Beecot, puzzled.
"A mods a wink to a blind 'un,"
croaked Mrs. Purr, condensing the
proverb and turning AWAY. "Jus'

edness. They'll bring him to the gal
lers some day"

Mrs. Purr toddled up the newly gray
eled path and entered the cottage,
leaving an odor Of gin behind her.
1t was 8 O'Clock when Paul arrived
at the door Of the stairs leading TO his
attic, and here he was touched on the
shoulder by no less person than Mr..
Billy Hurd. Only when he spoke did
Paul recognize him by his voice, for
the gentleman who stood before him
was not the brown individual he knew
as the detective. Mr.. Hurd was in
evenfng dress, with the neatest of pat
emf boots and the tightest of white
gloves. lie wore a brilliantly polish
ed silk hat and twirled a gold headed
cane: also he had donned a smart
blue cloth oyercOat with a velvet col
lar and cuffs. But, though his voice
was the voice of Hurd, his face was
that of quite a different person. His
hair was dark and worn rather long,
his mustache black and large and
brushed out q la kaiser, and he af-
fected an eyeglass as immovable as
that OF Hay.
why are you masquerading as a
Frenchman, Hurd ?"
Not Hurd in this skin, Mr.. Beecot
Comte de la Tour, yotre service" and
he presented a thin glazed card with
a coronet engraved on it. "Come up to
your room. There's something to be
talked over between u.s.

"Ah, my poor friend" said the de-
tective in his usual genial voice, you
have had enough bad news, l am
aware. To lose a lovely wife and a
fine fortune at once. Eth, what pityP'
II have lost the money, certainly"
said Beecot, lighting his lamp, but the
wife will be mine as soon as | can save

than this"
NJ lie Comte de la Tour sat down and
gracefully flung open his overcoat, so
as to expose a spotless shirt front.

eyebrows, 80 you mean to marry that

CHAPTER XIII.
"a Paul expected, the next let
Ia ter from his father contained
5SsSss a revocation of all that had
ks2xk2J pleased him IN the former
one. Beecot senior wrote many pages
OF abuse. He always did babble like a
complaining woman when angered. He
declined to sanction the marriage and
ordered his son at underlined
to give up all thought of making Sylvia
Norman his wife.
Sylvia, under the charge of Deborah
and escorted by Bart Tawsey, had
duly left Gwynne street, bag and bag
gage, and she was now established IN
Rose cottage, Jubileetown. The house
was a small one, and there was not a
single rose In the garden around II.
She was assigned the best room ia the
small abode, and one Of the first things
she did was to write a letter to Paul
asking him to repair to Rose cottage
to witness the marriage of Deborah
and Bart. The handmaiden thought
this was necessary so that she could
make full use Of her intended husband.
eff he wasn't here aIlays," said the
bride elect, he'd be gaddlng about
idllng. / know him. An me getting
a business together won't be easy IN
less I've got him at and, as you may
say, to take round the bills, let alone
that he ought to sleep in the 'ouse in
case BURGLARS gifts in"
Deborah, as an American would say,
was hustler, and, having made up
her mind. she did not let grass grow
under her feet. For three Sundays
she had the pleasure of hearing the
banns announced which foretold that
Bart Tawsey and herself would soon
be man and wife Then the marriage
took place.
The future Mrs. Tawsey had no rela-
tives, but Bart produced Mrs. Purr, u
snuffy old grandmother from some
London slum who drank gin during
the wedding feast, much to the scan
dial of the bride. Paul acted as best
man to Bart, and Sylvia, in her plain
dress, was bridesmaid.
After the ceremony Paul, laughing
at the oddly of it all, took his leave.
On walking to the gate he was over
taken by Mrs. Purr, who winked mys-
teriously. whatever you do, SIR" said
the lean old creature, with many con-
tortions of her withered face, don't
have nothin' to do with Tray"
''Tray?" echoed Paul in surprise.

panies have.
For this reason the fight seems to be
confined TO the two large companies.
Board Attitude In Doubt.
However. it is hard 10 tell what the
board viii do In the case OF the trae-
ton franchise the two strong COM
panies in the field were the Chicago,
Lake shore and South Bend Interur-
ban company and the company that
was backed by the United States Steel
corporation.
In spite of this the franchise was
awarded to Frank Gavit. when he
would not make public statement as
TO who hts hackers were. and event
uany sold to the Chicago-New York
Air Line company which for some rec
son or another did not want TO come
out into the open and make a real
effort to get the franchise.
The action OF the board in the mat
ter Of the phone franchises will be
of great interest to the public, not
only OF Gary but of the surrounding
towns. for the ability of outsiders 10
get into telephone communication win
the great steel city will depend upon
whar company gets the franchise.

Sight of Lite Monster Causes Panic
Among South Chicago Girls
One Faints.

The sight of lizard fully six inches
long out for morning stroll on the
sidewalks near the corner of Exchange
avenue and Eighty-ninth street at an
early hour this morning, threw a bunch
of girls on their way to work, into a
panic. One Of the girls, Miss Clara
Spencer of Cheltenham, was overcome
by the sight of the creepy thing that
she nearly tainted and was taken into
drug store by her companions be-
fore she revived. The lizard was
killed by Charles Sandstrom. 1t is an
uncommon specie and it's presence in
South Chicago is unaccountable.

THE HoMlNe INSTINCT IN Ea&

There is a hOming instinct among men as there IS among birds ls ss A pretty fact in what may be te-res'a innate psychology that men as sasT grow old and see the end approacAasS have a disposition 10 return Co sas places where they were born 10 as2is the summons
 They do not always obey ts-is prompting; indeed. it Is disresarded an more cases than It is needed. Bur she instinct is there.
 It is declared by students of oiolcsy that the love Of ones birthplace is congenitaI and that a man who w2s born near the sea. for instance. VIII always have a yeanIug Co return -to the ocean. even though he dwells far inland from infancy to old age
 Another phase of this hCmins in- stinct is the desire that men eNperiencr to be buried among their kindred l- is th,s instinct which accounts for the transportation of dead bodies over thousands of miles of land and sea that they may lie in some country grave yard. perhaps. within sight of "a farm house deserted half a century ago

Going home t' die" is one of the saddest sights o- life.
 Collateral to this instinct and akin l' it in origin is the desire which city men of country birth eXperieuce for rural life as they grow older Ll-s yearning for the country Is. indeed not confined to the country bred Nl-r- Iy all men experience it and this is tle result of atavism-inherited love fog the soil persisting through many gen erations of city dwe,lers.

YOUNG UNGRO0StVtLTDEMfS
 THAT HE STOLE A BRIDE
A Curious MixUp Involving the Presi- dents Cousin ard a Bereft Book maker.

| New York.-"Who is this bOOkmaker
 who says I have stolen his wife? Who
 ever he is. he must be crazy I'm not i in the habit of going around Kidnapping mems wives. He's got the wrong par | ty."
 | James R. Roosevelt. Jr.. sat puffing a cigar at his home. No. 343 Riverside Drive. as he made remarks about Johl Brailer, of No. 361 Riverside Drive, who has told his lawyer. Benj. Baker. to sue | the Presidents cousin for alienation of
 his wife's affections It was the first night, it was said. that Roosevelt had been home since New Years eve. It was on New Years eve that Mrs | Brailer disappeared.
 He says he is going to sue me for | S50,0O0 damages" remarked the young man. Let him go ahead When he's got his charges all framed up and puts them on the file I'll make him the sick est man on Manhattan Island. He seems to have got fooled and he wants 10 stick me for the bill" l CARES ONLY FOR HIS OWN WIFE. 'I notice he made some allusion to beating my head off. Any time he wants to try it he is welcome. I will say that there only one woman I care for and that is my wife Brailer is l trouble-maker, but he will have a hard time getting away with this. From what l can understand he is a cheap bookmaker. He had better stick to his trade and let me alone with his fool accusations"
 MT. Roosevelt appeared at Dalson's l O Seventh street, where he keeps his three automobiles. He said Brailer was mistaken about the color of his autos. and declared that he did not own one with a red body and yellow wheels. This is the machine in which Brailer says he saw Roosevelt on Mon day. Roosevelt said Brailer was dreaming about that automobile ride. ''I never drive my machine" he in sisted. My man does that for me. Neither my man nor I took Brailer's wife out driving. We don't happen to know her"
 Mrs. Roosevelt, who, before her mar riage was known in the Tenderloin as Dutch Sadie" said that she had no comment 10 make on her husbands disappearance from home or his re- turn.
 Hes here and that's all care" she said. 'Whatever trouble that book maker has with his wife he will have to patch up with her. I'm not a bit interested"
 NOW MRS. BRAILER APPEARS
 Brailer met his wife again yesterday He was making book in a Third avenue cafe where he takes bets. when she swept like a breeze. She wore the brilliant collection of jewels. including the s1.0OO locket which. she told Brailer Jimmie Williams had given her. She was in Q vengeful mood Brushing past a group of surprised men at the doorway she walked up to Brailer
 Viper" she hissed. How dare you talk about me-"
 Now. Hat. cut it out" exclaimed Brailer. This ain't the place for circus"
 You are a fine gent" screamed the bride of three weeks. "I want you to tell me where that furniture is"
 She referred to the hatful of mahog- any that Brailer appropriated when he discovered that his wife had fled. The furniture is in storage on Second
