"SHnkeyB Hr'
BY fugh Pendexfer
Copy ight, by Joseph b. BOwles.,

The heavy, dark brow OF Mr.. VIII
liam Bilks, alias "Siinkey Bill" bur-
glar, was wrinkled in pleasing medi-
tation of the past. For six months he
had been living quietly and happily
on the proceeds of his last victim, a
general store upstate, where the pri-
vate safe of an egotistical proprietor
had opened and disgorged its wealth
In most 6miable imaginable.
Mr., Bilki had just been rejecting
how all safes always had had a fas-
cination for him, and how even as a
child he had felt a gentle curiosity to
pry open the doors and rummage
through the contents. Then, besides.
safes were his friends and gladly sur
rendered all at his skillful touch and
probing. He told himself he could
actually feel the force of their invi-
tation, be it ever so mutely given.
But this reverie was interrupted in
the most unwholesome manner by the
entrance of Mr.. Snyme, a more hun
BILE member of Mr.. Bilk's profession.
He viewed Mr.. Bilks with an i'll
favored grin for a few seconds,
paying no heed to the gruff invitation
to take a chair. His waggish spirit
seemed TO mo something unusuaiiy
f%acetious in M. Bilk's hoarse voice
ana heaVy race and ne chuckied In a
whimsical manner until the owner Of

to toss him into the area-way, six
