She apparentlv. took him for a we'll

Noticed. Maitland opened his safe, took
therefrom the jewels, and gave them TO

The real Dan Anisty. sought by police of

cane. The latter proved to be Anisty
himself and he secured the gems. Anisty,
who was Maitland's double, masqueraded
as the latter. The criminal kept Matt

He gave her the gems The girl in gray
visited Maitland's apartments during his

heard a womans voice expostulating.
Anisty, disguised as Maitland, tried to

her side. He took her TO Attorney Ban

tried in vain to wiring from her the loca-

and she 'phoned OHagan, only getting in

house, told cabby to wait-Anisty
seems to have walked out right on
your heels"
HE'LL" And a moment later:
whats this about a woman in the
case?"
Maitland took swift thought on her
behalf.
TOO long to go into now" he parted
the query. you help me catch this
scoundrel Anisty and I'll put in
good word for you with the deputy
commissioner"
"Ah, yeh help me nab him." grunted
the detective. "'nd l won't need no
good word with nobody"
The hanson swung into Broadway,
going like a whirlwind; and picked up
an uniformed officer in front of the
Flatiron building, who. shouting and
using his locust stridently, sprinted
after them. A block further down an
other fell into line; and he ii was who
painted at the step an instant after the
cab had lurched to a stop before the
entrance to the st. Luke building.
Hickey had rolled out before the
policeman had a chance to buster
"'Lo, Bergen" he greeted the man.
'Yeh know me-I'm Hickey, central
office. Yeh're jus in time. Anisty's
in this buildin'--'r was ten minutes
ago. We want all the help we en- get"
By way of reply the officer stopped
and drummed a loud alarm on the
sidewalk with his night-stick.
Say" he painted. rising. you're a
wonder, Hickey-if you get him"
"Uh-huh," grunted the detective
with sidelong glance at Maitland.
"C'm long"
The lobby OF the building was quite
deserted as they entered, the night
Waterman invisible. the night elevator

cred by consultation OF the indicator
dial above the gate. Hickey punched
the night call bell savagely.

We'll, T anybody else comes along

What n hell's tn matter with this

The detective settled a pudgy index
finger on the push button and ELECTED
a far, thin, shrill peal from the an
nunciator above. But the indicator ar
row remained as motionless as the car
at the top of the shaft. Another sum-
mons gained no response, in likewise,
and third was also disregarded.
Hickey stepped back, face black as
a storm-cloud, summed up his opinion
of the management of the building in
one soul-blistering phrase, produced
his bandana and used it vigorously,
uttered a libel on the ancestry of the
night-watchman and the likes of him.

CHAPTER xv.-continued.

"Ah, cut that. can't yeh?" Hickey
got on all fours, found his cigar. stuck
It in his mouth, and fell into place at
Maitlands side.
Hickey, mean. But how"
IF yeh're Maitland, nd Anisty's at
the st. Luke buildin', tell that fool up
there to drive!"
Maitland had no need to lift the
trap; the cabby had already done
that.
"All right" the young man called.
TITS Detective Hickey. Drive onl"
The lash leaped out over the roof
cr-rack!-and the horse, presumably
convinced that no speed other than a
dead-run would ever again be de-
manded Of it, tore frantically down the
avenue, the hanson rocking like top
sail-schooner in a heavy gale.
Maitland and the detective were bat
tered against the side and back of the
vehicle and slammed against one an
other with painful regularity. Under
such circumstances speech was diff
cult; yet they managed to exchange a
Jew sentences.

WHY UMBRELLA WAS RETURNED
Something of Joke on the Late
Henry Ward Beecher.

Among the financial friends OF the
great preacher was one old broker in
New York-an aggressive Unitarian,
which sect he often said bore the
trade mark of honesty" One day he
met Mr.. Beecher hurrying toward
Wall street ferry to avoid the down
pour of a sudden rainstorm-
Take my umbrella" said the
broker. 81 don't need it; the coming
bus takes me to my door"
At the ferry Mr.. Beeeher met lady,
a prominent church worker of sister
church, who, having no umbrella, was
lamenting her inability to reach her
car safely. The urbane preacher
forced the umbrella upon her as he
said: Il VIII be out your way to-mor-
row and will call and get It,"
Two hours later as Mr.. Beecher was
sitting in the old arm chair in his
study the doorbell rang and when he
responded to the call a boy hurriedly
presented him with an umbrella, to-
gether with an unsealed note, which
read:
Dear Mr.. Beecher-My husband.
Mr.. NJ, demands that I return the
umbrella you so kindly loaned me at
once, and join him in saying that I'M
der the circumstances the pleasure OF
an anticipated call is unregretted.
Upon opening the umbrella you will
become more fully advised OF our
united action"
The great expounder of truth and
honesty was horri1ed when upon
opening the umbrella he discovered a
pasted slip upon which was written In
a bold round hand: Stolen by some
Presbyterian thief"

Ed Walker has the following 70
say in regard To the candidacy OF
Mack Roach, OF Fulton, Tor the les
islature: In a card printed in Fri
days Fulton Leader. Mack Roach ad-
nits a willingness, if not a burning
desire TO go to the Legislature from
this district and he pledges himself
faithfully To carry out the will OF his
constituents If he is elected. 1t is
safer TO judge men by what they do
than by what they say. MIR. Roach a
teeman for one of the Fulton pre-
cincts. and he had a voice in the
calling OF a primary or convention.
a petition that was circulated in his
precinct and signed by 40 out OF 100
Democratic voters in the precinct,
was presented to Mr.. Roach. These
voters this constituents asked him
TO vote for primary at the Column
bus meeting of the committee, Feb.
u. To the gentleman who presented
the petition TO him Mr.. Roach is re-
ported to have said that he would
not vote for a primary if a petition
as long as from Fulton to Hickman
was handed him. Now the point is:
Can you trust a man to carry out the
viii OF the people in the Legislature
when he refuses to carry out the
wishes of the Democrats in his own
precinct, and that, when he must
have known as everyone else did,
that ninety per cent of the Demo
Gratis in the district desired a pri-
mary? Col. Ayers wanted a conven-
ton and that seemed sufficient TO
influence the action of Mr.. Roach.
