CHAPTER xxxII.
Anne Watson's Story.

Liddy discovered the fresh break
in the trunkroom wall while we were
at luncheon, and ran shrieking down
the stairs. She maintained that as
she entered, unseen hands had been
digging at the plaster; that they had
stopped when she went in, and she
had felt gust Of cold damp air. In
support of her story she carried in
my wet and muddy boots, that I had
unluckily forgotten to hide, and held
them out to the detective and myself.
What did 1 tell you?" she said
dramatically. Look at 'em. They're
yours, Miss Rachel-and covered with
mud and soaked to the tops. 1 tell
you, you can scoff all you like; some
thing has been wearing your shoes.
AS sure as you sit there, there's the
smell of the graveyard on them. How
do we know they weren't tramping
through the Casanova churchyard last
night, and sitting on the graves!"

on which he was working, but which

There is sort of melancholy plea

its pomp and ceremony, but 1 shrank

CALLING THE BLUFF

We note what the Miami Metropolis
has to say Of the papers in the state
not supporting Senator Taliaferro for
reelection, and note also that he has
this paper included among them.
We are at a loss to understand how
such information ever reached the Me-
tropolis, as the Star declared for Talia-
ferro long since and has had no reason
to make a change.
This paper will support his re-elect-
ton with whatever influence it may
possess, and does so feeling that 10
lose the services of a man who pos
sesses the ability to do things as ev-
cry one knows and admits of Taliafer-
70, would be a calamity to the state
any time, but especially now.
No, Brother Metropolis, you are in
error in our case: and, no doubt, in
others.-Dade City Star.
