Every WE'LL" was the response. Il
can start by saying that the plan for
the robbery was conceived by John
Pierce"
It seems that Agar and Mrs. Kay
lived together as husband and wife
and that he had given her all OF the
details of the robbery. Pierce, at the
time. was a clerk In a bucket shop.
He had been concerned in several
shady transactions and the possibili-
ties of the gold train appealed to him
very strongly. But it was too big q
lob for him to undertake alone. So ne
sought the professional advice and as
sistance of Agar. That gentleman
seized the suggestion with avidfty.
The first step necessary was TO WIN
over one of the employees OF the COM
pany. So they approached one OF the
guards named Burgess. who was u.s.
ually In charge OF the trains carrying
the gold. He fell In with the scheme
and explained the methods OF trans
portation.
AS the gold was carried In the
guards van it was plain that the rob-
berry would be easy when Burgess was
ON guard. The question was how 70

was plain enough-to get iaise Keys

girls know the secret Of keeping bu-
reau drawers in order? It Is simply
this: Have box for everything and
everything in it's box. The covers OF
the boxes may be discarded or not,
Just as you like. but ribbons folded In
a box do not overlap glove territory,
and belts do not have to put up q
sign mo handkerchiefs allowed on
this property" Two long boxes (cor-
set boxes, perhaps) are good for
gloves and belts, and another box for
purses and other trifies and all the
dear feminine "nothings," that are
everything" really, for we couldn't
live without theml
A girls club / know of had prom
Used to make large number OF paper
roses of different colors to decorate
a church fair booth. This seemed like
O big undertaking, but one OF the girls
had brilliant inspiration and made
the task into pleasure for all con-
cerned. She invited the club mem
bers to her house for Progressive
Rose Party" One table had red
cloth. one q pink cloth. one q yellow
cover and one was white. Thus the
tables were designated where flowers
Of like hue were to be made. The
white rose table was the head table.
When a bell rang after a certain time
had elapsed, the two at the red table
who had made the most red roses pro-
crossed to the pink table, and SO on.
Tally cards cut in the shape of a white
rose were used, with small pink rose
pastors. When the work was done
the goodies were served in pink and
white cases on pink and white dishes,
and didn't those pink and white maid
ems have an appetite? The best work
er received as a reward little silver
rose pin-and it won't fade unless she
loses 1t!
Now that hats are such an expensive
part Of ones wardrobe, one girl has
told me her way, and really she is
too clever for words. She makes one
hat do for several occasions. She has
a medium-sized black straw hat and
a large white hat with adjustable

upon getting his assistance in bring
ing his pals to justice. The other was
to shadow him in the hope of secur-
ing additional evidence that would re-
suit in recovering some Of the gold
and rounding up the gang. The Sec
ond course was agreed upon. So a
close espionage was kept upon the
skilful and gentlemanly Mr.. Agar with
the intention Of ultimately taking him
into custody.
Just as the police were ready to
pounce down upon the fellow, he up
set all of their plans. He committed
fresh crime. And it was Of char
acter that could not be ignored. He
was caught uttering forged checks, and
in wholesale quantities. An army of
shop-keepers went after him and he
was arrested, tried, convicted and SEN
fenced to transportation for life. The
detectives who had been after him for
the great bullion robbery tried to get
him to make a confession Of that af-
fair, but he only smiled and remarked
that he had nothing to say for publica-
ton. They even tried, in mild sort
of way, the kind of persuasion that
we call the third degree, put 1t was of
no use. Agar shut up like clam,
merely saying that he was ready to
take his punishment for the forged
checks. He was sent away, and with
him the only clue relating to the theft
Of the gold dust.
The affair was about to be cast into
the limbo of unsolved mysteries when
a note was received at the Office OF
Captain Frazer from woman who
gave the name of Mrs. Kay. She said
that IL the police would call at her
home she would give them some In
formation that would interest them ex-
ceedingly.
And she did.
It was the old story OF revenge
and a woman's revenge at that. The
officer who called on Mrs. Kay expect.
ed to hear of some petty offense, but
instead Of that she poured into his
amazed ears the complete story OF
the great bullion robbery.
"Why do you tell this?" asked the
officer.
Because John Pierce has tried to
cheat me out of my just dues"
"Your just dues?"
'Yes. the money that belonged to
me-the money that was intended for
the support of myself and my child"
