 "l thought he was tipping Montcom- cry that he was out and that the trail would be a short one" he said to him self.
 He turned Co the clerk again.
 Soon as you get nm answer to that personal.' he instructed the young man. telephone headquarters and ask for Captain Kearney. IT I ain't there the message win be delivered to me. SeeT"
 Hawkins moved from the respectable newspaper end of Park row to that sec ton of the same iron pnlared and track covered highway which melts into the Bowery. He had but little money, and he was hungry.
 For cents he could have entered one of a hundred and more saloons, had glass of beer and his fill of beans, bread and corned beef But he had learned his lesson from drink. and he passed these places. choosing a cheap restaurant after carefully studying the prices of its various dishes displayed on a frame of dirty white oiIcloth in black letters
 He found a seat in the rear Of the pluce facing the door.
 Keaney's man had entered behind him and was seated with his back to him. But he faced a mirror, and he could see every move of the old prohe- tioner he was shadowing
 The eyes of Hawkins shifted about the restaurant taking in the dirty walls, tawdry pictures, faded artificial flowers and the little signs proclaiming special dishes and their prices. For only a second his eyes rested on the mirror, but it was long enough
 "A bull" said Hawkins to himself.
 The glance at the mirrored face was enough to impress it on his mind. If this detective was shadowing him and not some other man Hawkins would know it in just little while.
 He ordered a plate of ham and beans and a cup of coffee. Bread was served with it, three slices He ate with a good appetite and paid the waiter l5 cents from his little store Of money.
 It had been his intention to go to the Herald office and insert reply to the personal from Montgomery. He left the restaurant and continued his way north on the Bowery to Third avenue. He went as far as Twentythird street and turned west
 At Fourth avenue he entered the Metropolitan building arcade, which runs through to Madison avenue and Madison square He had not as yet termed about to make an attempt to find the shadow, and Kearney's man was cougr0tulating himself on having struck am easy job.
 once in the arcade building Hawkins increased his gait until he came to the wide Madison avenue entrance. Here the storm doors had been put up in readiness for coming winter and the heavy weather of the late fall. He pushed through the door, but instead of continuing into the avenue he com pleted the circle and was back in the arcade. He retraced his steps, passing and recognizing the shadow, went to bootblack stand and calmly took cbair
 The shadow. surprised, at hrst thought that this was ruse of th' man he was stalking to avoid him, bu when he saw Hawkins take the chail he stood off and under cover told him self that his task was still simple oue
 As Greek boy rubbed and polished his shoes Hawkins pondered how bes to proceed next. Had Kearney not un covered his hand in the attempt C bribe him to betray his friend he would have been puzzled to fathom the mean ing of this shadowmg Now he under stood why he had been released iron prison and why bis steps were beini dogged. It was not mercy and Kind ness that had been the motive Of hl deIiverauce. lt was police craft NeY ertheless he was out on probation an 10 stay out as long as he violated n law
 The problem before him was Co gal tbst probatlou by his own honest efiol and not by being made Judas. III knowledge of detective methods, gail ed in evil days. now stood him in goo stead for good cause. He knew Cha some time during the late afternoo OF night hls shadow would be relieve Inv another. If necessary, the man io lowing him would arrest him as su uiclous character take him to sti fiop and hold him just long enough have his relief look him over froi under cover and then follow him. I'm be would not bo held for long, D knew very we'll The police wante him free so that he could make h way to hls friend and guide them their quarry
 He was concerned chiefly in geitin ,n print the reply to Montgomery's pc eoual TO manage this best he wouI return to hia old associates of the u derworld. Unwritten, Che words
