MUST STAND TRIAL HERE
Two Men Extradited to U. s. by
British Courts.

London, June 2o.-Thomas Adam Reid,
a former employe of Chubb & Son, OF
New York, who was ordered extradited
on June 4 on accusations OF larceny and
embezzlement, was taken to-day from
London to Southampton to embark on
the Mnnewaska for New York.
A pathetic scene occurred at the rail-
road station, where Just before the de-
parture OF the train Reid was greeted
by a young woman with a child. She
claimed to be Reld's wife. and ss the
prisoner was taken away she fell faintins
on the platform.
An Intellectual attempt to defeat an
extradition order issued by the court here
was made to-day by Adolph Schmidt
alias Zowalskie, who was arrested In
May at the request of the Chicago police
on his arrival at Bristol from Montreal
The accusation against him is one. OF

MAINE TO BE ABANDONED
Another British Hospital Ship
Will Receive Same Name.

Glasgow June 2.-The British Admit
rally to-day decided to abandon the hos
.pital ship Maine. which was presented TO
the British nation by American women
during the South African war and which
went ashore on June II in the Firth OF
Lorne. on the west coast Of Scotland.
1t was the opinion of the officials that the
cost of the salvage and repairs OF the
Maine would be more than the value OF
the vessel.
The hospital ship which is now being
fitted out and which was TO have been
known under the name of Mediator will
be christened Maine, in order TO perpetu-
ate the memory of the abandoned hos
pital ship Maine and her services during
the Boer war.

CHAPTER III.

THAT same morning, at eleven precisely,
L when an insoent west wind sprang up
and tore the fog into ribbons and scarfS and
finally blew it into smithereens, Channel
ward, there stood before the windows OF a
famous haberdashery in the Strand young
man. twenty-four years old, typlcally En-
elish. beardless, hair clipped neatly about
his neck and temples, his skin fresh colored,
his body carefully but thrifty clothed.
Smooth skinned he was about the eyes and
mouth, unmarked by dissipation, and he
stood straight, and by the set Of his Shout
dcrs mot particularly deep or wide you
would infer that when he looked at you he
would look straight. Pity, isn't it, that you
never really can tell what a man IS inside by
drawing up your brief OF what he IS outside:
There is always the heel OF Achilles some
whcre-trust the devil to find that.
OF course YOU wish to know forthwith who
returned the ruby, and why. As our states
men say regarding any important measure
for public welfare, the time IS not yet ripe.
Besides. the Young man am describing had
never heard Of the Mana Sahib's ruby, un-
less vaguely in some Sepoy Mutiny tale.
His expression at this moment was rather
mournful. He was rcgrctting the thirty
shillings a week he had for several years
drawn regularly in this shop. Inside there
he had introduced the Raglan Sh.r. the
Duke Of Westminster four-in-ha:d and the
Churchill bat-wing collar lle longed to
enter and plead for reinstatement; but his
new-found pride refused to bulge his legs
doorward. Thirty shillings twelve for his
"third floor back and the rest for clothes
and books and simple amusements. What
a whrl he had been in this last fortnight
He pulled at his chin, shook his head, and
turned away. No, he simply could not do
it, What suffer himself to be laughed at
behind his back? Impossible-a thousand
times no. At the first newsstand he bought
two or three morning papers, and continued
on TO his lodgings. He must leave England
at once: but the question was How
1t was a comfortable room, as third floor

fastened block Of wood on the wire
so that the monkeys movements would
be arrested half way in case he should
try to run toward the fire house. and
then I called to him from the door and

was stopped half way. He turned
around, looked up ut the wire and inn

which held him. He hung upon the wire
with his tail and hind feet, and with
his mouth and front paws removed the
block of wood. lie then climbed care
fully down the chain and ran up to the
door, where he was given the sugar
that he so well earned.
His love for sweets Is one Of the

how very like 1t was to the head Of a
