Jim wondered whether she knew
more about the crime Of which she
was the victim than he knew, or II
she had discovered aught concerning
It while she was q prisoner on the
yacht. Granting that her person was
90 valuable that a man Of Monsieur
Chatelard's caliber would commit a
crime to get possession Of 1t, why
should he have abandoned her when
there was plainly some chance Of
safety in the boats? He could not
conceive Of Monsieur Chatelard's
risking his neck in an affair of gal
lantry; cupidity alone would account
for his part in the drama. James
went over and over the situation. as
far as he understood 1t, but he did
none Of Ms thinking aloud. 1t flashed
on his mind that Miss Redmond must
already have separated him, in her
thoughts, from the other people on
the yacht; though perhaps her trust
was instructive, arising from her own
need Of help. How could she know
that he had risked his neck twice,
now, to follow the Vision?
Swimming slowly, with Agatha's
hand at times on his shoulder, James
turned his mind sharply to a consid'

GOOD TREES FOR THE CITY
Suitable Shade Producers Are OF
Four General CIasses-How to
Plant Correctly.

Shade trees suitable for street plant
Ing come under four general classes:
The columnar, such as the Lombardy
popular. Irish juniper and red cedar;
the cone-shaped. such rs the sugar
maple, sweet gum. white pine; the
v~ase-formed, or spreading head, as the
American elm and silver maple; the
round.headed form, such as the Caro-
lima popular and horse chestnut,
The redbud or Judas tree, the mag
nollas and similar varieties are excel
lent for use on lawns or city squares.
but not suitable for street planting on
account OF their small size and habit
Of growth. 1t Is best to select trees
from nurseries in the fall, so that their
form can be fully determined. and this
is also a good eason for transplant
ing, for the roots can then become
established In new quarters before
frost. The trees should be well
pruned, and after the ground Is frozen
a mulch of leaves about six inches
deep (held in place by brances, but
which allow aeration Of ground)
should be put on. This will furnish
heat. and. by putting 1t on after the
first frosts, will prevent the mice
from building nests in. or nibbling tho
roots.
The vase-formed trees. which arch
gracefully over the street. and or
which the elm Is so perfect a type, are
quite generally conceded to give the
best effect. The American elm Is
pre-eminently the street tree OF the
older towns Of the east and middle
west, and tightly SO. as 1t 1t both rug
ged and graceful. 1t grows with uni
formity, yet without m%onotony. shows
great individuality without departing
from type, developing In age what
might almost be called personality

Too Generous With Free Lunch.

Laying a birthday feast on the free
lnnch counter, a deal chef In the en-
ploy Of Ike" Hirschorn, a New York
hotelkeeper, committed an amusing
error the other day. and incidentally
lost his job. 1t was the hotel proprie-
tors birthday. IKE" invited all OF the
best people to a dinner in his honor.
Geese, chickens, Holsters and all OF the
~delicacies of the season were ordered
in unlimited quantities. 1t was a fine
layout that Ike" inspected. Put 1t
all on the table upstairs" he said to
his chef, Hazenpflug. The chef, being
deaf, did not comprehend the order
and in five minutes the layout was on
the free lunch counter. The news
spread quickly that Hirschorn had
turned philanthropist and 1t was all
over In a minute. Before Ike" could
get to the scene the elaborate birth
day dinner had vanished.
