CHAPTER Xl.

RS. WILMOTr, very Ianguid INtI and stunning amid her lux III III urious surroundings, received @ NJ. Paul with the patronizing indifference that bored rich women extend to tradespeople. But presently when he explained that he was a de- tectiye and began to question her about the Ansonia affair she rose with a naughty gesture that was meant to banish him in confusion from her presence. Coquenil, how ever did not banish so easily. He had dealt with naughty ladies before

 How do l know?" the beautiful Mrs. Wilmott replied sharply "I spent the notes in shops; I'm not responsible for what became of them. Besides, l am dining out tonight, and I must dress I really don't see any point to this conversation"
 "NoY" He smiled, and tho teennesS of his glance pierced her lie blade. The point is, my dear lady, that want you to tell me what you were doing with this billiard player when he was shot last Saturday night"

 NOW. I will tell you exactly what happened" And, settling herself near him. Pussy Wilmott entered bravely upon the hardest half hour of her life. After all, he was a man, and she would do the best she could.
 Well" she went on quite charming ly. ,"I have done some foolish things in my life. but this is the most fool ish did give Martinez the five pound notes You see, he was to play a match this week with a Russian, and he offered to lay the money for me"

 For what?" Mrs. Wilmott bit her red lips and then, with some dignity, replied that she did not see what bearing her pur- pose had on the case since it had not been accomplished. Why wasn't 1t accomplished?' he asked.

the Cleveland Americans, gives every
indication of coming into his own this
year, and Messrs. ny Cobb Of Detroit

they will be snatched away by the big
Frenchman, who led the league four
times in batting. Since he Joined his

Women and the. Ballot.

A woman with a ballot in her hand
is reminiscent of rosebud wrestling
with a thrashing machine
If ballots came in bandboxes wom-
en- would be more at home handling
them.
The fiutter of petticoat loses its
fascination in politics.
A woman at the polls and baby in
the cradle don't seem to harmonic
somehow.
When the women vote the hens will
crow, and everybody knows what ev-
erybody says about Growing hens.
Women may have children and have
the ballot, but their nature doesn't de-
mand the ballot.
What is home without a ballot box :?
The eternal feminine is fine cam
paign material.
Women may become great states
men, but they viii never be great poll
ticians.
How would woman's reputation
look in society after it had passed
through about one mud singing cam
paign? And what would the other
women say ?--Judge.

Chickens with Wool.

Chickens with wool instead Of feath-
ers are said to have been raised at the
Carnegie station for experimental evo-
luton at Cold Spring Harbor, N. Y.
The queer fowls are being carefully
guarded, and the public is not to be
allowed peep at them until science
ut least is satisfied and has catalogued
and tagged them. The creatures are
said to resemble a chicken in form,
but their wool and tiesh and even their
bones are black.
