THE EYE OF AN ARTIST.
A Case Where 1t Was More Reliable
 Than a Sailors Optic.


 Than a Sailors Optic.
 MT. N Chevalier. the well known artist who accompanied the late Duke of Edinburgh on many of his travels, was once going from Dunedin to Lyt- telton. New Zealand, by steamer. Anx- iOuS to catch the earliest glimpse of the coast, he went on deck at dawn and was alarmed to see that the yes sel was heading straight on to the land. Calling the officers attention to the fact, he was told that it was only a fog bank. The artist maintained his point, but the second officer looked and confirmed his mate.
 The artist then said, "Well, gentle men, will back my artists eye against your sailors eye, and 1 say that what you mistake for fog bank is a low range of hills, and there is range of mountains appearing above them
 But he was only laughed at until the captain, coming on deck, found in the growing light that the artist was right and the seamen wrong. The vessel was out of its course, and there was only just time to avert disaster. The helmsman was dismissed in dis grace and the course given to new steeFsman, but the vessels head still pointed landward-the compass was all wrong.
 The cause was discovered later. A commercial traveller had brought box of magnets on board and deposited them in stern cabin, causing what might have been a fatal Reflection of the compass.
 |. Ts return to the question of inter prettion, the artist was dealing with the appearances which his eye was trained to see and his mind to inter pret A speck on the horizon might have remained mere speck to him long after the sailors had interpreted the speck into a vessel of definite rig There can be little doubt that the trained eye is accompanied by a sort of mental seeing-an instinct outrun- ming optics

In each of the wings were sev- en of these private rooms, all opening on dark red passageway lighted by soft electric lamps. It was in one of the west wing private rooms that the crime had been committed. ! M. Pougeot paused at the turn of the corridor to ask some question. but he was interrupted by burst of singing on the left, roaring chorus of hi larity.
 "It's banquet party" explained the doctor, "a lot of Americans. They don't know what has happened" "Hah! reflected the other. "Just scross the corridor too"
 Then briefly the commissary heard what the witnesses had to tell him about the crime. It had been discov- cred half an hour before, more precise ly at ten minutes to 9, by waiter, Jo- seph. who was serving couple in No. j, dark compleXioned man and 1 strikingly handsome woman. They had arrived at a quarter before and the meal had begun at once. Oddly enough. after the soup the gentleman told the waiter not to bring the next | ,ourse until he rang, at the same time dipping into his hand a ten franc piece, whereupon Joseph had nodded his understanding.
 Ten minutes! Fifteen minutes! Jo- seph knocked discreetly. then again after decent pause, and finally. weary of waiting, he opened the door A moment later he started back. his eyes fixed with horror.

 You saw the body. the mans body?" questioned the commissary. "Yes. sir"
 And the womanY

that. He paused as roar of laugh ter came from across the hall. The commissary turned quickly to one of his men. See that they make less noise. And be careful no one leaves the banquet room on any ex- cuse. I'll be there presently" Then to the waiter. Did you hear any sound from No. 6-anything like a shot?"
 No, sir"
 "H'm! It must have been the thun- der. Now, tell me this-could any one have passed you in the corridor while you stood at the banquet room door without your knowing it?"
 Josephs round. red face spread into grin. "The corridor is narrow, sir, and P'-he looked down complacently at his ample ferm-"1 pretty well fill it up, don't I, sir?''
 You certainly do. Give me sheet of paper" And with few rapid pen ell strokes the commissary drew a rough plan of the banquet room, the corridor and the seven private dining rooms. He marked carefully the two doors leading from the banquet room into the corridor, the one where Jo, seph listened. opposite No. and the one opposite No. 6.
 Here you are, blocking the corridor at No. A." He made a mark on the plan at that point By the way, are there any other exits from the banquet room except these two corridor doorsY'
 "No. sir"
 Good. Now, pay attention. While you were listening at this door-I'll mark it A-with your back turned to No. G. a person might have left the banquet room by the farther door I'll mark it Band stepped across the corridor into No 6 without your see- ing him. Isn't that true?"
 "Yes, sir; it's possible" 'Or person might have gone into No. 6 from either No. or No. with out your seeing him?'
 Excuse me. There was no one in

 It was quarter past 10. and the hilarity of the proceedings at the Fourth of July banquet (no ladies present. had reached it's height. A very French looking student from Bridgeport, Conn, had just started an uproarious rendering of My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean," with Latin quarter variations, when there came a sudden hush and turning of heads toward the half open door. through which d voice was heard in peremp- 'ry command.
 moment later there entered a llorid faced man with authoritative mien. closely followed by two police men

 "That's the only way he could have come without my seeing him."
 And If he went out from No. afterward, 1 mean if he left the hotel, he must have passed you in the corri- dor?''

 "Now. did any one pass you in the corridor, any one except the lady,"
 "Yes. sir" answered the waiter ca gerly; "a young man passed me. l supposed he came from the banquet room"
 "Did any one else pass you either going out or coming in?"
 "No, sir"
 Joseph heaved a sigh of relief and was just passing out when the com missary cried out. with n startled ey- pression: "A thousand thunders! Wait! That woman-what did she wear?'
 The waiter turned eagerly. "Why, a beautiful evening gown, sir, cut low with lot of lace and"-

 No, sir; they were downstairs in the cloakroom."
 "In the cloakroom" He bounded to his feet. Bon sang de bon Dieu Quick! Fool! Don't you understandY This outburst stirred Joseph to un. exampled efforts. He fairly hurled his massive body down the stairs and a few moments later returned panting but happy, with news that the lady in No. had left cloak and leather bag in the cloakroom. These articles were still there.
 "Ah, that is somethingw murmured the commissary, and he hurried down to see the things for himself.
 The cloak was of yellow silk, em broidered in white, a costly garment from fashionable maker, but there was nothing to indicate the wearer The bag was luxurious trifle in Bra gillian lizard skin. with solid gold
