rLADY AND GEMS MISSING
Hotel Man, However, Is Sure OF
a Detective Named Smith.

Take II from Mr.. Beckman, who runs
hotel with a cafe attachment at Ninth
avenue and 23d street. a real lady did lose
lot OF jewelry, according 10 Charles
Smith. whom MI Beckman says probably
IS a private detective.
II was Mr. Smith who advertised that
Ne would pay 500 reward for the lost
feweIry. and Nj Smith gave Mr.. Beck
mans hotel as his address. But Mr. Smith
does not live at the hotel. and Mr.. Beck
man does not know where he does live.
q didn't see the lady myself" Mr..
Beckman will tell YOU, but ! have no
doubt that there was such a person, for
Smith said so. Smith told me that she
came I'D TO him out there on the corner
and told him that a gentleman had
bought her a glass Of soda water, and
later she found herself over in this part
Of town. minus Lord knows how much
stuff, and she wanted IT, Smith didn'. say
whether she had the soda water in Fifth
avenue or Chinatown. but he took her
word for it, and put that advertisement
iu the newspapers. He certainly was the
happy fellow when he saw a lot Of things
about himself, and I should think that he
might come in most any time.
Where is his office? Well. TO tell you
the truth. l don't know where it is unless
It is under his hat; and as for his home
