'Mr. Lacy" he exclaimed 81 am so
glad to see you
"Why?" asked Lacy.
Why retorted the other, because
now you will pay me for the mandolin
you bought from me about a month
ago."
Lacy laughed.
You will pay me, wont you?" cried
the dealer hysterically. You wouldn't
rob a poor man, would you?"
Fade away" said the versatile
rogue. I'm havin' me holiday now,
and | can't be disturbed by vulgar
tradesmen.
Lacy Immediately realized the mis-
take he had made and, learning the
character of the telegram that had
been sent to Scotland Yard, made
quick preparations for shortening his
vacation at the cozy seashore resort.
He acted with characteristic disregard
of conventionalities He summoned a
fisherman and hired him to take him
out in small boat, and hailed a Cas-
tie liner which was bound for South
Africa. By the aid of clever "cock
and bull story he induced the cap
tain to take him aboard and before
the Scotland Yard man reached Mar
gate Lacy was calmly sailing the sea
on his way to Cape Town.
Superintendent Froest Immediately
telegraphed to the authorities at Cape
Town, describing Lacy, and instruct
ing them to apprehend the man on his
arrival at that port. Lacy managed to
get ashore and strolled about the Af-
rican city, admiring the botanic gar.
dens and the astronomical observatory
with the enthusiasm of tourist
whose only desire is to profitably
while away an idle hour. He was in
specting the fine new docks of the
place when the agent of Scotland
Yard clapped his hand on his shoulder
and placed him under arrest. Lacy
submitted with perfect good grace and
was formally lodged in Jail at Cape
Town. Arrangements were made to
nave him returned to England the fol.
lowing day.
But, alas! his satisfaction was pre.
mature. for the daring Lacy jumped
off the train while it was in motion
and disappeared in the depths of a
So ! h African forest. The officer had
the train stopped at the next station
and, with the assistance of several
other men, made search of the
woods. They finally located their man
in an empty house few miles from
the point where he had jumped from

looked prosperous. He was dressed in
sWagger style, wore long coat, car
ried heavy cane and had a sunburst
of diamonds reposing amidst the folds
of a blood-red cravat-in fact, he
looked too vulgarly rich to be true.
W1lkle consulted the hotel register
and found that his erstwhile criminal
friend had registered as Frank Lacy.
The change of attire and the assumed
name were suspicious and the Ameri-
can lost no time in going to the tele-
phone and calling up Frank Froest,
one of the brightest detectives in
Scotland Yard. Wilkie told Froest
that it might be worth his while to
come up to Lows and have a look at
the latest addition to the American
invasion of London.
Not long after the meeting in Lows
Exchange all London became excited
over what was called the "Cutlass
Mystery" 1t began when we'll.
dressed, elderly gentleman of consid-
cradle wealth was found on the side
walk with his head badly cut and the
blood flowing from several saber
wounds. He said he had no recollec.
tion of how he came to be in such a.
plight, and resolutely declined to give
the police any information upon the
subject. Two days later another man
was found similarly wounded and In
the same condition. He was not as
close-mouthed as the first individual
and went so far as to say that his
misfortune was the result of a card
party in which he had participated
the previous night. He was unable
however, to give the locality of the
house, having been taken there by an
obliging cabby whom he had sought
with request to be conveyed to some
place where he could satisfy his de-
sires to daily with the goddess OF
chance. In less than "a hours from
this time still another man was found
with two saber cuts about his head
and then the "Cutlass Mystery" be
came the reigning sensation of Lon
don.
| The next chapter in the history O
this curious rogue occurred at the lit
tie watering place of Margate. A mu
sical instrument dealer of London wa.
taking his holiday at this resort ant
| was enjoying himself in name
such as is possible only to Londol
tradesman. AS he was strolling alon,
the strand he came face to face witt

J Justice. He grasped him by the coat

the police archives of New York,
Chicago, London, Paris, Vienna and
Berlin. Beginning as prototype of
the Artful Dodger, he has gone from
pocket-picking to bunco steering, and
then run the entire gamut of crime,
stopping -providentially, perhaps
at murder.
Frank Macy, the doubtful hero of
this queer story, was born at Freeport
Ill. There are many old residents in
that place who still recall him as a
precocious baby, smart boy, and
clever youth. Freeport soon proved to
be too small to satisfy his bulging
genius, but even before he left his
birthplace he made little excursions
from the paths of virtue which, in the
boy. are so often prophetic of the
mans career. When he reached mans
estate he was tall and as straight as
an Indian. He had coal-black hair and
sallow complexion, which lighted up
brightly whenever he was in humor
to be affable with his fellow-man.
1t was in Chicago that Frank Macy
first distinguished himself in crime. A
little more than dozen years ago an
7 advertisement appeared in the Chica-
go papers stating that wealthy
widow, about to take a long trip
abroad, was willing to sell her favor
lite horse "Dobbin."
After the money had been paid.
and within "a hours, Dobbin began to
undergo most curious transforma.
tion. What had been a magnificent
specimen of horseflesh began to show
strange signs Of decrepitude. He shriv.
eled up, as it were; 1t seems almost
impossible to properly describe this
marvellous transformation in mere
words.
The scene now shifts from Chicago
to Lows Exchange in Trafalgar
Square, London. Wilkie at that time
gas the London correspondent of an
American paper, and while standing
in the corridor Of this hostelry he was
surprised to see his old-time "Gyp'
friend, Frank Macy, enter and place
his name on the hotel register. Macy
