Needed a Reminder.

HILARY X. ADAIR, the famous We.
/ ern detective, was talking TO a st.
Joseph reporter.
You see.' said Mr.. Adair, Il give YOU
all the information about this robbery
that l possess. The papers. by spreading
the news of crime. help to catch the
criminals. II is old fashioned to withhold
facts from the press on the ground that
publication would thwart the detectives'
work"
Mr.. Adair laughed.
In a Pennsylvania town. he said, -
murder committed in 1892. The MUIR
derer, who was known. fled. The day
after the murder the local paper printed
full story of the crime and a half-tone
portrait of the criminal.
THAT morning the chief of the local de-
tective bureau entered the editors office
stormily.
What in the name o tarnation do you
people mean by printin that photo OF
Slawter this mornin'?' he roared.
Why, what harm has ii done, chiefr
the editor asked.
Harm? You corn-twisted chump.
can't you see that it spells our chance Of
ever ketchin' him.
How so?' said the editor
Why retorted the chief If you had
the brains of bilygoat you'd see for
yourself that the minute the Teller lights
on his photo in the paper he'll know
we're after him. If you hadn't printed
that picture. he'd have forgotten all
about the crime in a week or SO. and
come back here to town again. That was
what we was layin' for. But you've
spoiled our game, blast ye. There's no
chance of gettin him now, and it's all
your fault.

you she saw it and I worked her into
employing me to help her. After that
all that was necessary for me to do was
to instruct you where to go and what to
do and then tell them pretty little stories
of how | had discovered the secrets of
your movements. They began to think
they were employing a phenomenon. and
took me into their entire confidence ex

When we reached the capital we drove
directly to the Hotel Iturbide and found
the old general had not yet arisen. Com
Zales was left below in charge of Tom
Railway. at Rand's wish. The general
hurriedly prepared to receive us and his
first words were:
Heaven bless you. Mr.. Rand. for your

Rand named a good round figure. Tho
old general smiled and stroked his white
beard with pleasure. turned to his table
and wrote a check for double the amount.
You are too modest. my dear sir said
he. handing the bit of paper to Rand.
You are very kind, said Rand. Per.
NIT me to thank you and to offer you this
in return. He laid the box containing
the Cochrane secret in the old mans
hands. He was too astounded to speak
till Rand said: your son is below in
charge. What is your wish in regard to
him.
The old mans eye blazed.
Turn him loose and tell him / said he
can go to the devil"
Perhaps this is no place to introduce
any of my personal affairs but will add

The shopkeeper was profuse in his apollo
gies that any one should attempt to muir
der me at his door, saying such bad luck
always came his way. When the ponce
arrived they eagerly scanned the machete
and pronounced 1t one used by the labor
ers on the big Marengo plantation.
When | returned to the hotel there was
letter for me, brought by an express
messenger. with nothing to show whence
it came. 1t was from Rand, and read:
Dear Duncan: You are as clever a
partner as any man could wish to have.
For heavens sake be even more careful
than YOU have been Wire the station
master at Marengo to have saddled
horse ready for you at the o'clock
train tomorrow night. Ride to Marengo
hacienda and ask for a nights lodging.
Say you are Mr.. Crane of New York,
and want to buy a plantation. The pace
uuickens. RAND"
When 1 got off the train at Marengo
the next night and walked through sand
toward the tiny glimmer that came from
the coop of the station figure that
seemed to know stepped between me and
the light. l laid hand TO my revolver.
A soft Indian voice said in Spanish:
Here is your horse. senior.
I swung on. paid him for two days

pointed out the cactus-bordered road to
the hacienda rode into the darkness and
silence.
