Being the first of series of
tests In selecting a detective

the law lost the trail. But once again
through what to the uninitiated would
prove Insignificant the policeman found
himself warm on the scent The discov-
cry was a burned match, which pointed
in the direction of Lemon avenue. A care
full comparison between the two clues Sc
cured to date showed that the cigarette
stub had been originally lit by the rem
nant of the match when it was whole.
With renewed energy the officer again
hit the trail which led him to the corner
of Lemon avenue and North First South
street Here he discovered that three boys
were shooting craps in front of a pawn
shop. After winning eighteen cents by
putting in with a swarthy youth whose
ancestors had wandered care free through
the Afric jungles, the willy sleuth learned
that a suspicious man had entered the
pawnshop an hour and a half before that
time, and shortly afterwards emerged and
ran rapidly down Lemon avenue, a great
deal faster than he would have had he
been running to catch car.
From the description given him, Police
man Cassidy at once recognized that the
man was none other than Rust Nail, the
notorious and slippery second story work
ct.
The officer disappeared for a moment in
the entrance to q saloon. A moment or
two later there emerged from the same
doorway a beautiful but blind flcWer girl.
No one could have possibly recognized
Cassidy in the demure, siehtIess maiden.
Nevertheless il was none other than the
undaunted candidate for the detective
force. The blind maiden entered the pawn
shop and asked to see some collar but
tons. In the case the blind girl saw
one that answered the description of the
one lost by the victim. The information
was gained from the pawnbroixer that the
collar button had been pawned for 9 cents
by a man who said he had wife and sew
eral starving children and who seemed to
be in q hurry.
Throwing off his clever disguise the Of
ficer seized the button and hurried back
to Mr.. Stringfelder's apartments Mr.
Str1ngfelder said that the button was not
his. but that it would answer tile pur-
pose. He completed his toilette hastily
and hurried to the home of his lady love
only to find that she had gone TO the Pic
kelodeon theater with his hated rival,
who was none other than Rust Nail.

CHRIST THE manifest MAN
Subject of Address by Rev. c. c. Nc
Intire Before Mems Glass
at Y. M. C.. A,

''The Manifest Man" was the subject Of
the address of Rev. Charles c. McIntire
of the Westminster Presbyterian church
al the Y NJ, c. A. yesterday.
I'm this age of practica bility." said Mr..
McIntre, the thing which is valuable
today. is not what seems to be, but is A
man is not rated for what he dreams or
thinks. but by what he does And it is
the same in religion. Business men are
asking: Who was Christ? How does he
compare with other great men? What
work did he dol?
Christ was the man of most compos-
ure of character. other great leaders
have been faulty in losing control of
their passions, but he, under the most
trying circumstances. never lost his COM
posture of soul.
Christ was the greatest leader of men.
No one ever asked Christ's disciples why
they followed him. They were drawn by
the strange fascination of the power Of
his personality.
Christ was the greatest thinker of the
world. The history of philosophy is the
record of what great minds have
thought concerning Cod the world and
the destiny of man. but in one of his
common conversations Christ stated the
whole solution when he said: 4 am the
way the truth and the life.
Christ was the man of the greatest
heart. On his crucifixion he died for the
world.
''There are at least three character
istics of the Man which transcend ali
comparison with other great men of the
world
Jesus was sinless. He was the only
man who possessed that immaculate
whiteness Of moral character which Is
the ideal of true manhood
''All this proves that Christ was the
manifest nan of history"
Preceding Mr.. McIntires address there
was violin solo by Miss Helen Hartley
and vocal solos by Mrs. Charles Daily
and Miss I.eola Schrack.

DUEL PROBABLE OUTCOME
FRIENDS TRYING TO AVERT
MEETING.

New Orleans. Nov. 3.-The firm reply of
Lieutenant Governor J. W. Sanders today
to what has been universally accepted
as a challenge for a duel by Donelson
Caffery, son of the late United States
Senator Doneison Caffery. has created a
dramatic political situation in Louisiana.
Tonight another matter entirely foreign
to the personal combat has increased the
tension. The practically rival proclama-
tons of the lieutenant governor and OF
Governor n. e. Blanchard TO the coming
extra session of the legislature were
brought face to face by the governors
arrival here today from the east.
Early this morning, in close conformity
to the code of honor, Mr.. Sanders issued
a written reply to the statement of CAT
ferry. This statement declared that the
lieutenant governor holds himSen per-
sonally responsible for the utterances
which caused the trouble, and adds:
II am prepared TO meet that respon-
sbility and Mr.. Caffery knows where to
find me-"

the handsomest man on the police force,
on account of his splendid bearing. his
scholarly mien and his magnificent phys
Ique. was the first man to be chosen to
take part in this competition. He was
at the police station reasoning out myS-
FERROUS hypothesis when call came in
Tor a detective from the apartments of j.
Hylip Stringfelder in the Noisy hotel on
the corner of Second West and Fourth
East streets The telephone message
stated that a detective was wanted at
once to ferret out a deep mystery.
1t seems that j. Hylip Stringfelder, who
works in the Grabit Quick cafe had
night off last evening. He went to his
suite of rooms at Hotel Noisy and began
his toilette preparatory to call on
young lady friend. Suddenly he discov-
cred to his horror that his favorite col
lar button, which he kept exclusively for
social purposes, was not in its regular
place beneath his dresser.
With great mental anguish Mr.. String
fielder awaited with Impotence the arrival
of the sleuth for whom he telephoned i'm
mediately upon the discovery of his loss.
Suddenly Officer Cassidy, rotund and
ruthless. with revolver drawn charged
putting into the room. The officer at once
made thorough search of the premises.
At the conclusion of the search the off
Ger found that all efforts TO find the col
lar button on the premises would prove
futile, and from this fact he deduced that
a robbery had been committed.
There seemed to be no clue to the per-
petrator OF the crime. An ordinary de-
tectiVe would acknowledge that he was
foiled. Not SO with Cassidy. On the win
dow sill he discovered a half burnt home
made Pull Durham cigarette with the
burnt end out of the window pointing 90
the yard below. To a common sleuth this
fact would have no significance, but 20
PatrOlman Cassidy it was an important
clue The victim of the crime. Mr. String
fielder, does not smoke Pull Durham cigar
cites. but affects the Pedro brand of the
tailor made variety.
Once on the trail the policeman followed
seemingly with the scent of a blood
hound. Down the fire escape and across
the lawn Here momentarily the limb of

Cassidy S Quest

Chief of Police Thomas d. Pitt recently
announced that inasmuch as there were
two vacancies on the detective force ID
be fllied, ii would be necessary to ap-
point two patrolmen to the places va
cant In order that every one might be
given an equal opportunity to secure one
OF these places there would be sort OF
competition between the police OFFICERS
and the one that showed the greatest abil-
lty as a sledth would be one OF the new
detectives.
In order that there should be no charge of
favoritism made by any officer, the mag
nitude of the case on which the various
patrolmen were to be assigned would cut
no figure in the general results The as
tuteness of the officer, his deductive
ability and his skill in trailing fugitive
were the points to be considered.
