FOR VIOLATING LAWS.
Two Prisoners Arraisned Before Unit
ed State Commissioner Burleieh.

United States Deputy Marshal Haskell
was III town Saturday afternoon. having
come down from Bangor with two pris-
onerS, John Z. Hamilton OF st. Stephen.
n B., and Fred Barclay of Miiltnwn
this State, whom he had arrested for vio-
lauion Of the United States laws. Both
men were arraigned before United States
Commissioner Burcigl.
Hamilton. who had been arrested at
Calais Friday afternoon for smuggling
dressed turkeys over the Canadian line
pleaded not guilty, and at the request of
the United States district attorney was
held in the sum of 800 for appearance
at q continued hearing to be held on
Thursday, April 1S No bail was forth
coming and he was committed TO kenne-
bee Jail.
| Barclays case was little out of the
usual run of violations of the laws of the
United States, be having been arrested
Friday for refusing to stop and allow his
team to be searched by the customs Off
GERS The incident which led up to his
arrest occurred on the night of March II.
/ Barclay had been suspected of snug
Cling sheep skins from the other side OF
the boundary, and the officers having re-
ceived information he would probably
make O trip on the night in question, laid
| in wait for him in the town of Barring.
on the St. Croix river, five miles y. n.
w. from Calais.
The officers were rewarded later in inc
| ~ enng by seeing a team come across
| the river, and which proved to be the one
| for which they were looking; hut when
the matter Of overhauling the team arose.
| that was another question. Tho man with
| The team was in the lead, and white III"
| officers had good horse, the road was
50 narrow that they could not pass the
| fugitive and they were still further ham
| dicapped in the chase by the fact that
when they came up with their quarry
| the man ahead Of them would, it was al
! legged strike their horse in the face with
his whip, which caused the horse to stop
| The roads in that section formed an
elongated square, and when the two
teams had made the circuit of the square
| the fugitive drove his team across the
river once more and onto Canadian soil
and so escaped.
On being arraigned before Commission
or Burleigh BARCLAY pleaded not guilty,
ard was held, as was Hamilton, being
also committed.

CHAPTER IN.

y [ would be idle to deny that Philip
was startled by the sight. No
Drawer or more resolute boy breath
- ed. But the silence, the mystery
the gloomy aloofness of Johnsou's
Mews-lent a sinister aspect to an APP
partition formidable enough under any
circumstances, but absolutely threaten
ing and full of danger to one situated
as he at that moment
He never remembered seeing the man
before, not that this repelent physiog-
nomy was of type to be soon forgot
ten. A bullet head, with prominent,
bloodShot eyes, a strong, cruel mouth,
huge nose badly broken-a certain
strength of character in features de-
based by drink and crimnality-these
were the tokens writ legibly on the
countenance glaring intently at the boy
from without
The two gazed at each other for an
appreciate time. The mans face wan
dered from Philips face to his costume
and then rested on the open portman-
teau at the boys feet There was in
his expression an air of astonishment-
a certain gloating bewilderment-as of
one who had stumbled unawares upon
some object of such potential value
that the finder could hardly believe it
to be true. He was thinking, wonder
ing, debating, with himself The Cog
gle eyes seemed to see more than the
brain was inclined to credit.
Philip despite his alarm felt that the
right course was to resent this imperti-
rent prying into his affairs.
Hello. your he shouted. What do
you want?"
The man grinned. He seemed to be
about to answer when he suddenly
turned his head and looked down the
yard toward the entry.
Instantly he swung round and van
ished noiselessly with the silent alert
ness of Il cat, for the boy heard no
sound. He simply disappeared in the
darkness. and Philip. who knew every
inch of the ground, realized that his
most unpleasant visaged spy had not
only diyed into the further obscurity
of the news, which formed q Guide
sac. but also was either in his stocking
feet or wore something over his boots to
deaden any possible clatter on the paw
ing stones
Here was a nice thing, his habitat
discovered by some tramp or criminal
skulking in the untenanted building
marked out for the house breakers
within a few days 1t was too bad
He was sorely annoyed that he had
not thought sooner of the potentialities
of the window when the interior of the
house was illumined by a candle and a
rudy fire. How long had the man
stood there watching him? He had
certainly seen some portion of the con-
tents OF the last portmanteau Had he
also witnessed the removal OF the 9th
ers to the pantry?

ne did not want any stray loafer to
gaze In at him and discover a large
quantity of luggage in such a disrepu-
table howell.
When the fourth bag was disposed
or In the dark recess of the scullery he
paused for an instant to listen. There
was not sound. Through the window
be could dimly discern the roof of the
deserted stables opposite.
He bent again TO the task Of packing
the fifth portmanteau and was placing
In it the last parcel of ore and dia-
monds when some Of the heavy con
tents fell through one end where the
drugget wrapping had been hastily
folded.
Shaking the package on the floor as
a grocer beats down the contents of a
sugar bag. he picked mp the fallen speci-
mons and put them i'll. one by one. 4
large lump of ore had fallen apart
when 1t dropped Inside there was a
huge kernel. rough diamond quite as
large as a hens egg.
Philip smiled as he recalled his boast
to lsaacstein. He examined the stone
critically and realized that if it were
hawlesS it must be one of the rnaryels
of creation. Without experiencing any
positive motive he slipped this UNIQUE
specimen into his pocket and went on
with the reconstruction of the damaged
arcoI

At last he finished me porumau-
teau was lying open on the floor when
the thought occurred to him that he
might have avoided the furry and trou-
BILE of carrying these heavy articles
into the scullery If he had nailed cou-
pie of yards of his drugget across the
window.
1t was not too late even now to recti-
~ this defect. He glanced at the win
dow to ascertain how much material he
should cut off and saw a face-an evil,
brutal. suspicious face-peering In at
him over the top of the curtain.

Inc sight brought a lump into his
throat. He sank to his knees, pressed
down, lie felt, by some superior power.
Mother" he said humbly, forgive
me and ask God to forgive me for
what would have done We're you not
watching over me-"
In the spiritual exaltation of the mo-
ment he almost expected to find that
sweet face peering at him benignantly
from out the dina background. But he
could not see her and he rose, revivi-
ned by this spoken communion with
her. He had no shadow of doubt as to
her presence. God to him was the uni
verse and his mother the unauestiona-
Die means of communication with the
Providence that governed his life. He
would die rather than abandon that
belief. Were it dispelled from his
mind he was quite certain that his
wealth would vanish with it. 1t was
no haphaZard accident which had sent
the diamond laden meteor headlong
from the Sky. He was despairing. dy-
ing. His mother appealed for him,
and, behold. The very elements that
control the world obeyed a mighty be-
hest
lie began TO work methodically. lii
the first place, he lit fire. for the
evening was chilly; then he shook his
mattress and swept the floor, gather
ing into a heap all the tiny particles
with which it was Uttered These he
collected in a piece of newspaper and
folded them into parcel, which again
he inclOsed in a stouter sheet of brown
paper, finally tying the whole with
yard of string he carried in his pocket.
There were hundreds of tiny dia-
mOnds in that insignificant package
and not few the size of small peas.
As matter Of fact, he discovered sub
seQuently that the net result of his
sweeping brought him in over q 1000.
Having examined every nook and
crevice of the apartment by the aid
of the candle, he satisfied himself that
nauSht remained which would indi-
cate to the most curious eye any event
out of the common having occurred in
that humble dwelling.
1t was typical of Philips implicit
faith that he did not unlock the back
door until his interior task was ended.
He knew that his meteor was untouch-
ed.
