Have you not noticed that he is not
dressed in all respects like the other
gentlemen present-that, though he
has not donned his overcoat he has
put on, somewhat prematurely, one
might say, the large silk handkerchief
he presumably wears under it? Have
you not noticed this and asked your
self why?"
l had noticed it. l had noticed it

matter Of sufficient interest to ask,

The inspector left me no time for the
settlement of this question. Ushering
me back into the room where Mr.. Du-
rand and my uncle awaited our return
In apparently unrelieved silence. he
closed the door upon the curious eyes
of the various persons still lingering in
the hall and abruptly said to Mr.. Du-
raLd:
"The explanations you have been
pleased to give of the manner in which
this diamond came into your possession
are not too fanciful for credence, If you
can satisfy us on another point which
has awakened some doubt in the mind
/ of one OF my men. Mr. Durand. you
appear to have prepared yourself for
departure somewhat prematurely. Do
you mind removing that handkerchief
for moment? My reason for SO pecul-
lar request will presently appear"
Alas, for my last fond hope. Mr.. Du-
rand, with a face as white as the back
ground of snow framed by the incur
tanned window against which he lean
ed, lifted his hand as if to comply with
the inspectors request. then let it fall

his shirt front.

uniform whiteness. That it was the red

Deep Wells That Feel the Sea

In their investigation of the under
ground water resources OF the Coastal
Plain of Virginia the biologists Of the
United States Geological Survey have
collected data relating to the many
hundreds of artesian wells that yield
excellent waters in large areas of the
coastal region. Particular note has
been made of the quantity and quail
! ity of the supply afforded by wells
that give flows at the surface. The
water of most of these wells is adj
mirably adapted to household uses,
though that of some of them contains
enough mineral salts in solution to
make trouble in boilers used for steam
production.
The variation in flow exhibited by
these wells with the rise and fall of
the tide is of peculiar interest, the
flow being notably greater at the
flood than at the ebb tide. 1t is
the general opinion among we'll drilers
that practically all flowing wells near
tidal rivers or inlets from open bays do
feel the distant sea, but some of them
so slightly that the variation in flow is
not noticeable.
The geoogist in charge of the ground
water Investigations in Virginia states
that changes in water level in wells,
due to fluctuations in the height of the
surface of some neighboring body of wa
ter, have been observed all over the
world. 1t is customary to explain these
changes by supposing a direct connec-
ton between the river, lake, or bay;
but in many places, as in eastern Vir-
ginia, such connection is clearly i'm
possible, owing to the depth of the wells
and the nature of the intervening beds,
some of them dense, tough marls and
clays. These beds, however, Though
they do not transmit water, neverthe-
less contain it, and as water is practi-
cally incompressible, any variation of
level on the river or bay is transmitted
to the we'll through the water-fllled
gravels sands, clays and marls. When
a porous bed is tapped by a well the
water rises to the point of equilibrium
and f1uctrates as the hand of the ocean
varies its pressure on the beds that con-
fine the artesian flow.

words were uttered which pronounced
the young couple husband and wife
It'll death do US part" May Fallon,
in a very capable manner, rendered a
pretty wedding march. After the mar
riage ceremony was over and the usual
congratulations at the church door,
the bridal party with number of in

the brides parents south of town,
where a sumptuous wedding feast con-
sisting of the choicest viands awaited

as a desirable companion. The many

MEMORIAL OF RAVEN I0DGE

In the death of Nicholas T. Martin, the
Knights of Pythias have lost a true and
faithful brother. He was a charter member
Of Raven Lodge. Knight Martin was val
liant defender of the principles and purposes
Of the order. In his intercourse with his
brother knights, he was courteous and kind,
ever solicitous for the welfare OF his lodge, in
which for so many years he held the Office of
keeper of records and seal. His presence
will be greatly missed. As he was a chiv-
alrous knight in his battles with the trials
of life, as he met danger unawed, so will be
his guerdon and reward.
The members OF Raven Lodge deeply SYM
pal hize with the bereaved family
Resolved, that this memorial be spread upon
the records of Raven lodge and the charter be
draLed for thirty days. w. J. Jeuck.

The Choicest Meats,
At EnZenrOth & Jacka's market.
Rebuilt Pianos of Well
known Makes.


Some of the most charming pianos,
and certainly some of the most won
derfully reasonable in price, are to be
found in the big Exchange Department
in Lyon & Healy's. Here you find
celebrated pianos, such as the Stein
way, Weber, Krakauer, Hazelton,
Washburn, Sterling, Huntington, etc. ;,
that have been traded IN for other in
struments. In many cases these up
rights have been exchanged for grand
pianos. Ordinarily such pianos are
sold in the condition received, but in
Lyon & Healys the little things one
does not like about piano which
stamp it as several years old, are
changed in their own factories. So
these pianos are brought right down
to date in tone, action and general
appearance. Every trace of use is
removed from their cases, and alto
gether they are made substantially as
perfect as the day they left their MAX
ers' hands. These rebuilt pianos give
great satisfaction.
If you would like a good piano at
about half price, write to Lyon &
Healy for a list of Instruments in this
class, They will be glad TO go into
full particulars, and you may depend
upon every statement they make. Tell
them about what kind of an instrument
you had in view and about how much
you had in mind to pay. Address
them 10 Adams Street, Chicago.
Lyon & Healy are the largest piano
dealers in this or any other country.

PASSED FROM THIS LIFE
Nicholas T. Martin,

died at his home in Mineral Point,
on Sunday evening, April IA, at about
six O'Clock.
MIR. Martin was taken with la grippe
about two weeks ago, and, although
he was confined to his home, his condi-
ton was not thought until a few days
before his death as being critical. The
immediate cause of his death was heart
trouble.
The decedent was born in Mineral
Point, Sept. 16, 1913, After attending
the public schools of this place he
attended school in Chicago, preparing
himself for a business career. He
entered the Office of state treasurer in
Madison, where he remained for one
year. He afterwards entered the Office
of secretary of state, where he re-
manned for four years. In 1870 he
engaged in the hardware business in
this city. In 1878 he was united in
wife, one daughter and three sons sur
vive him.
Mr. Martin was a member of the
Wisconsin assembly in 1889, and in
1899 he was appointed postmaster at
Mineral Point, and in March last was
appointed for his third term. He was
not only a man of good business
ability, but an active and liberal sup
porter of every movement for the
advancement of his home city. He
will be greatly missed by all. He
was u member of the P. M, church
and also of The Independent Order Of
Odd Fellows and of the knights Of
Pythias. For many years he held the
Office of keeper of records and seal
in Raven lodge. The funeral was
held under the auspices Of these or
orders on Wednesday afternoon.
Religious services were conducted by
Rev. w. 7. Walker with the address,
by Rev. Thomas Kent. The inter-
ment was in Graceland.

Mrs. Mary Brien

marriage in Ireland, to James Brien.
After her husbands death she came to
