Bessie's Bonnet,

Bessie hath dimplcd chin,
Moutn with smile upon 1t.
Eyes OF blue to glory in.
But-sho hath u bonnet,
That's the only thing | see
When she dares to don II.
Climax of all witchery
Lies in Bessie's bonnet.
Yet, though l have sung the spell
Oft In many a sonnet,
To this day l cannot tell
one thing that Is on it.
Were it off her dainty head
Who would care to con it?
She's the charm, when all IS said,
OF her dainty bonnet.

Melinda's Easter Hat.

Melinda Waters went to town,
And in a milliner's shop
She saw a turban with plume
OF whiskbroom shape on top.
She bought frame untrimmed, and
home
She hied, and down she sat.
With Jeremiahs shaving brush
She decked that Easter hat
Melinda Waters set the style.
She went to church, and, 10,
Now every man for miles around
Must let his whskers grow,
For all her friends beheld her hat
And marked the plume upon 1t,
And each one took a shaving brush
To trim her Easter bonnet.

WIFE AND GUESTS
SEE MAN DROWN
Austin Van Kirk, Crack Swim
mer, Victim of Cramps, Lost
in a Flash.

PATTERSON, July 19-Austin Van
Kirk, of 81 Mercer street, was drowned
yesterday afternoon in the Hackensack
river, just below the Delaware and
Lackawanna bridge He was a promi-
nent resident of the Riverside section.
Van Kirk and his family were taking
a pleasure "trip on the H~ackensack.
Van Kirk was the owner Of a new
motor boat. 1t was his custom to go
every Sunday afternoon for a trip down
the river, taking with him hrs family
and a few immediate friends. e
Yesterday his wife and one son were
with him, and a number of women
from New York Mr.. Van Kirk wasFin
the stern of the boat, sitting on q camp
stool, when suddenly he lost his bal
ance and fell overheard. Before the
people on the boat had an oppor-
tunity to turn the launch and render
any assistance Van Kirk had drowned.
It is believed by his friends h ne
had an attack of cramps, for he was an
expert swimmer.

night before, about $50, Bailey went
back to the bank. Jonas admitted him,
n he says the cashier was in a state
almost of collapse. Bailey worked I'M
til midnight. then he closed the vault
and went away. The occurrence was
so unusual that the Waterman pom
dered over~it all the rest Of the night
What did Bailey do when he went back
to the Knickerbocker apartments that
night? He packed a suitcase ready
for instant departure. But he held
off too long; he waited for something.
My personal opinion is that he waited
to see Miss Gertrude before flying from
the country. Then, when he had shot
down Arnold Armstrong that night, he
had to choose between two evils. He
did the thing that would Immediately
turn public opinion in his favor and
surrendered himself, as an innocent
man. The strongest thing against him
is his preparation for fight, and his
deciding to come back after the MUIR
der of Arnold Armstrong. He was
shrewd enough to disarm suspicion as
to the graver charge"
The evening dragged along slowly.
Mrs. Watson came to my bedroom be-
fore | went to bed and asked me if l
had any arnica. She showed me a
badly swollen hand, with reddish
! streaks running toward the elbow; she
said it was the hand she had hurt the
night of the murder a week before,
and that she had not slept we'll since.
1t looked to me as IF it might be Sc
rious, and | told her to let DR.. Stewart
see it.
The next morning Mrs. Watson went
up to town on the / train, and was
admitted TO the Charity Hospital. She
was suffering from blood poisoning. I
fully meant to go up and see her there,
but other things hrove her entirely
from my mind. L %telephoned to the
hospital that day, however, and or

whatever tcomforts she might be al

she said. You have taken me on faith
and-you have not asked me any ques-

you; and when that time comes YOU

I tried to tell her how glad | was to
have had her. but there was sople-

it finally, when she had bade a con-
strained goodby to Halsey and the ear
was waiting at the door.

That was all. Gertrude went into
town with her. and saw her safely
home. She reported a decided coolness
in the greeting between Louise and her
mother. and that Doctor Walker was

dust had probably been stirred up the
day before. After all, we had to let 1t
so at that, but we put in an uncom-

church. and Halsey took a long walk
in the morning. Louise was able to sit
up, and she allowed Halsey and Liddy
to assist her downstairs late in the
afternoon. The east veranda was

cheerful with cushions and lounging
chairs. We put Louise in a steamer
chair. and she sat there passively
enough. her hands clasped in her lap.
We were very silent. Halsey sat on
the raj! with a pipe, openly watching
Louise, as she looked broodingly across
the valley to the hills. There was
something battling in the girls eyes:
and gradually Halsey's boyish features

again. and settled into grim lines.

the inquest does nothing beyond get

know how many important things
never transpire. For instance, the
dead man had no key, and yet Miss
Gertrude testified to a fulnbling at the
lock and then the opening of the door.
The piece of evidence you mention,
Or. stewards story, is n of those
things we have to take cautiously; the
doctor has a patient who wears black
and does not raise her veil. Why, it IS
the typical mysterious lady. Then the
good doctor comes across Arnold Arm
strong, who was a graceless scamp
de mortuis-what's the rest of it?-and
he IS quarreling with d lady in black.
Behold, says the doctor, they are one
