The Little Violinist.
BY Eva Berlin, of Pensacola, Fla.

d.
A little house stood upon a hill in
an obscure village by the sea, little
girl with her poor lame mother had
just moved in. There were only two
in the family, for the father had
died many years ago.
The only comfort Seraph had (for
that was the little girls name), was
her violin, for her mother was lame
and could not console and pet her for
she had not the patience. Little
Seraph would sit for hours playing
her violin and the neighbOrs would
sit and listen to those long, clear and
delicious strains. But today every
thing seemed sad to little Seraph, her
uncle had told her it wasn't proper
for little girls to play the violin and
that she would have to learn to play
the piano, because her mother wished
it. Seraph thought to herself Yes
he will sell my violin and then" and
she began TO cry.
She did not stay in this mood long
for she heard her mother calling to
tell her that her uncle had sold her
violin. When she heard the news she
did not cry but went into her room.
There stood the case without the VIC
lin; yes. without her violin AS the
days passed Seraph missed her friend,
the violin more and more
Her mother told her professor
next door would let her play on his
violin sometimes, but she would have
to take piano lessons. After many
months had passed Seraph still did not
progress in her studying of piano
One day while Seraph was sitting
in the room with her mother she
heard a loud knock at the door.
Opening the door she saw her profess
sor. Seraph ushered him into the
room where her mother was seated.
The professor asked to see her alone
so Seraph was dismissed from the
room.
The professor had a talk with Sc
raph's motherC telling her 1t was ut
terly impossible for the little girl to
learn to play the piano. and that
having a talent for the violin it would
be the best for her to have it back.
After he had gone Seraph's mother
sent for the little girls uncle and told
him about the interview with the pro-
fessor. After bordering over the
question for a while he TOO, thought
it best for Seraph to have her violin.
And if one should have peeped into
the house that night they would have
seen Seraph with her violin in her
arms, hugging and caTesSing it, as if
it were a human being, and now and
then her dainty fingers would touch
the strings which brought forth a
sweet and melodiOus sound.

ed a description of the abductors from
CarPs parents. The joy OF finding
the long-lost boy had overcome her
and she had tainted.
Just as she tainted the bank mes
senger succeeded in getting Carls at
tenion and said important business
was awaiting at the bank.
Carl had to hurry back and so it
happened that the old lady did not
have a chance to speak TO him.
Some time after this he was think
ing of the adventure when a rap
was heard on the door In stepped
two policemen and a detective. The
latter said:
Carl Fenly, l charge You with for
gerry of a note of $4,000 on the bank
of which you are cashier"
Carl was struck dumb, and offered
no resistance to the officers when they
led him to the police station He at
once sent word for Harrison Keith.
the renowned detective, a particular
crony of his.
The detective arriving. Carl told
him everything about the case and
implOred him to find the guilty person
which would prove him innocent.
After a month of hard work, the
great detective called at the cell, and
told the prisoner he would be free
the next week And ne was. The
case came up and Keith gave con-
elusive evidence that the bOOkkeeper
was guilty, and not Fenly, the cashier
so it proved for the bOOk-keeper con-
fessed his wrong doing.
Being under arrest brought Carrs
history and mystery in the public
view, and he was soon identified and
proved TO be Carl Foster Keith, a dis
tant relative to the great detective.
Carl is now president and owner
of this bank and several others.

His Watch Wasn't There.

Patrick Moore, a resident of Bay
street, yesterday reported to Chief of
Police Gallagher that he had lost a
gold watch which he priced highly,
because it was an heirloom( says the
Montclair, N. j., correspondence of
the New York Times. Moore so i'm
pressed Chief Gallagher with his re-
greet over the loss of the heirloom,
which he suspected might have been
stolen, that when he was leaving the
Police Chief said:
All right, sir; well leave no stone
unturned in order to find your watch"
Moore went home and a short time
later found the watch where he had
mislaid it. Thinking to relieve the
Chief of any concern ABOUT the lost
watch, he hurried back to the police
station.
On the way up Bloomfield Avenue a
large force of laborers in the en-

Our Burglar.
BY e. Kathleen Mckinnon, Mckinnon
willie. Fla

BY e. Kathleen Mckinnon, Mckinnon-
willie, Fla.
In the year 1902 we moved to the
quiet little town of st. Andrews. My
fathers business was such as to
call him away from homo most OF
the time, he being gone from Monday
till Thursday of each week. There
were only my mother and three
small children left including myself.
As it was a new place and every
body were strangers to US, We were
afraid Especially so because the only
vacant house we could get was in
the suburbs. with no ,neighbOIs, and
thick TIT swamp near by looked like
it might have been inhabited by
bears. Every evening when papa would
be away we would eat supper early
go into the house, lock the doors
and talk in whispers.
One evening we went into the
house, closed the doors, as usual
were talking and trying to while
away the hours that must intervene
between then and bed time. just
after dark there suddenly came a
violent rafting and shaking of the
door as of some one trying to break
in. We were on the alert in a
minute wide-eyed and open mouthed
expecting to see some one burst into
the room. After waiting awhile for
results one of us called out: who
is there?"
There was no response, but a
continued shaking of the door at
intervals. My mother took the gun
which was standing in a corner OF
the room, and tried to load 1t, but
failed as she had never seen my
father load it,, she didn't know how.
1t being a breech-loader. After trying
vainly to load the gun, and when
our fear and excitement had reached
their height. mama began to reason
with herself.
She thought that if any one going
there intent on mischief, they would
hardly do so just after dark, but
would wait until everybody was
asleep or supposed to be. This giving
her courage, she proposed going out
and investigator but could get no one
to accompany her but my little broth
er then six years old. They took a
light. opened the door and emerged in
to the darkness to find not a bic
burglar-but a great big hog that had
gone up around the house. and had
been trying to root the door open
and get the crumbs that the baby
had dropped near the door in eat
ing.
The hog would put her nose to the
bottom of the door and push it back
and to, rapidly, which would sound
like some enc trying their best to
get in. We were very much relieved
to find it was only hog and rested
easy the balance of the night, but de-
cided that before one gets frightened
one should investigate.
