The Quinnipiac is admired and sought after because it stands for quality and high achievement in the cigar world. The Quinnipiac has a filler of Vaulta Abaja Havana tobacco and a wrapper of Connecticut Broad leaf.

The Altenburg Case

 'Tf we study 1t wholly from the Standpoint of the murder there's great ceal to bear it out It's certain his wife. daughter and son have be- heved it. Contrast the openness or the mans movements in coming into the state. and in preparing to meet attempted extradition. with the secrecy since the murder. Of course there could be no greater folly than the sel sction of the camp as a place for concealment. but it was selected for ehat purpose by others only as 2sans of escape from the Altenburg kouse. and ignorant as he was of the Country. he had to accept it until the others could find some other place. That the others thought concealment necessary shows what was in their minds The willingness to meet the accusers was gone. Concealment. that is the key to everything from that time on. as openness was the key to all before
 sswen." repeated Russell. Gas I ask ed before. isn't he the man?.
 There's one. fact that stands in- surmountably in the way. and it's a fact that has been strangely kept in the background. although once in a while referred to. and that's the fact that at least fifty thousand dollars was stolen that night If CaIden stole it. what nas he done with it2 I've spent some time and money on that phase of the matter. more than you might think wise. but tell you there's going to be no solution of this murder q. ,ros fr. <r-o money Now the plain fact is that if Calden took it away from the house he's never had a chance to rid himself of 1t yet StiT he didn't take 1t with him to the camp. I've known every there's been no chance to take it away It isn't there now Of course there's the chance that he didn't take it away with him. but concealed 1t in the house But they've given me ev- cry facility to search for it there. in fact. have seemed extremely anxious to find it. and there's no trace of 1t"
 '.But haven't the rest of them had an opportunity to spirit 1t away"

 May not Grinbleshaw have stolen the money even if he did not commit the murder?"

behind this is the iron door of the vault. That's how I got my first Knowledge of 1t. I heard a noise in the entryway one night. and looking out saw Altenburg slide back the wainscoting. open the iron door and go in- Last spring he was sick and got scared. thinking he was going to die. of bed for some purpose. and each time fell on the floor. and I had to call in Eliza and David to help get him to bed At last he gave 1t up and swear ing me to secrecy. gave me the keys and sent me to the room to get a package of papers from a shelf which he described to me. charging me on no account to touch or even look at any thing else. Before could get back his impatience got the better of him and he tried to get up and so fell again. When I got him back in bed I gave him the package. He managed. with a good deal of trouble. to count the papers. Then he- put them under his pillow and kept them there during the remainder of his illness until he was able to return them to the vault himself The day succeeding my get ting the papers he was very. much WOA-c. we IuOukHls iC Ah1A he was going to die. He got me into his room and made me swear that if he died I'd destroy the package with out opening it. As an inducement for me to do this he told me that there was fifty thousand dollars in money in the vault. and that 1t was mine to do as pleased with if I did what he ask ed. that is. destroy the papers,
 Both Beckwith and young Calden heard this statement with surprise, for in the case of the former. 1t was the first that he had heard of the matter. excepting the mere existence of the money. and in that of the latter. his mother had never before told him the full particulars. When Mrs. Calden paused Beckwith asked:
 What was there in the vault?"
 "I did not see very clearly. for I only went to the shelf and brought away the papers. but there -seemed mostly to be tin boxes and several packages of papers besides the one I went to get These were on shelves. but the boxes were on the floor against the wall"
 There's where the papers was looking for wereF' exclaimed Horace. ''If had known this I could have spared myself the troubleI Why hadn't you told me?"

THE MONEY AND THE PAPERS.

As Trafford said. the money was gone. without track or trace With it had gone papers of importance. If pa pers of importance had been in Alten- burs,s possession. which as yet was a matter for conjecture More than all the arguments that Grimhleshaw ad- vanced these facts comforted and up- held Judith Beckwith had gone over the premises with independent search CTS again and again. and it was cer- tain that these Items were not there. He could be trusted to grasp the ad- Fantages of such condition. and to use 1t for all that it was worth when. the time for using 1t came
 When young Calden and his mother came to settle with the lawyer the deA tails of the defense of Harold Calden they were. however. surprised and alarmed to find Beckwith hesitating. At last he said:
 T don't believe you'll approve of the advice I'm likely to give. but un- less there are reasons don't know of yet. I'm not willing to go on with the case unless. you'n follow the course I have already mapped out in my own mind"
 
 T shall advise against a writ of habeas corpus: shall advise against applying for bail: shall advise waiv- trate and I shall advise that you wait the action of the grand jury"
 ~That is that my father remains in jail without our lifting a finger to re- lease himt I'd never consent to it. if

 .No. I imagined not. Therefore, think 1t better that I should return the retainer"
 Might it not be well to submit the matter to your father?' asked Mrs Calden-

 swn you continue in the case. Mir. Beckvith. on the understanding that wen abide by this advice if. by argu- ment. we cannot change your view: asked Mrs Calden-
 Horace Calden saw his mother step to the front and take the lead with a feeling closely akin to shame
 .Yes.'' answered Beckwith. "but it's
  probably tra7ersed every argument that you will bring forward. and there is-not the least chance. in my opinion. that I shall change my mind in the slightest
 ..No.ie the less. we make that agree ment-" She had not asked Horace assent. she had simply made her own decision and evidently expected 1t to be accepted by her son.
 Beckwith's estimate of the woman and of his chances of accomplishing results. now that he had some one to deal with who would take some other responsibility save that of putting his head against wall. for which Horace seemed to have peculiar prediliction. rose an hundredfold.
 Still Mrs Calden felt that Horace was entitled to know her reasons for the decision she had made. and on the first opportunity she stated them.
