Nothing. SIR said the fellow glibly.

that the bold course was the safe one

Mackenzie?'
The detective turned about and scrutin-
lied US keenly; and through the gaslit
mist, noticed that his hair was grizzled
at the temples. and his face still cadav-

been his death.

THE BOY AND GIRL seeeARs OF DUBLIN

From of the troubled scene of strikes and lockous, riots and baton charges stands the quaint and pathetic figure of the child oeggar of Dublin.
 There are thousands of these child beggars. They come from crowded rooms of suuad tene- ments that the splendid homes of wealth and fashion Persistent flies sprighty as kit tens. the Dublin children have q tenacious hold life Born in small. stuffH rooms. enduring all the prvations that increase infantie mortality, these children of poverty survive the horrors of home and the cruelty of the streets. And they learn beg their mothers knee.
 When Dublin child solicits aims he combines recitation of beautitudes with bestowal of compliments. He flaters, wheedles implores and invokes the saints in one breath Silence stimu lates him. rebukes encourage him, anger dismays him not Running like a dog at heel he whimpers and whines his patterng feet keeping time with his monologules of woe. As well try to shake off the grip of bull terrier to escape the Dublin beggar child when his keen intuition has detected signs of weakness. He proVokes smiles irritation, resentment, and above all great pity.
 Truly they subject of pity these little boys and girls of Dublin with their miserable rags their old faces marked with the wisdom of the streets, their grubby, tiny hands held out for coppers, and their childish voices murmuring the dscord of the beggars whine. Late at night, with the public houses closing and cold sending pedestrians scurrying homeward, 1 have seen little girls of to years dancing the glistening pavement They have been dancing all the evening-not for joy, but for charity. Now they tired and their faces drawn They try smile but the smile is queer twist pain Their wet, ragged skirts cling round their thin limbs But still they dance the Irish jigs, facing each other and circling and curtsylnS with natural grace that defes exhaustion.
 They have learned the dance maybe the bare boards of single where they live sleep and eat, and to that room they will return when the last of the crowd has gone. eWt tired and hun gry, they will sleep heaven knows how where, and their chance of supper depends the success of their dancing This in SackVlle street the finest thoroughfare in Ireland.-London Mail

The Coming of the Colonel

Colonel Roosevelt is expected home this week.

He comes he went. private citizen from exploring expedition pri- vate as his journey has been though he has taken occasion to increase the warmth of the relation between this country and those he has lately visited
 The return of the colonel is awaited with greater interest than that which hung on his return in 1910. Many things have developed this country in the brief period of his absence The country has felt some humiliation in consequence of the operation of our Mexican policy and of all classes and parties have engaged in comparisons of the present situation with what it would prob ably have been if had had definite and viz orous policy
 What Colonel Roosevelt will have to say regard ing this matter will be heard with greater interest than the uttersnce Of any other man. We have learned from the Para interview his views with ference to the Panan,a canal tolls question To his belief that this country if it chooses under the treaty with Great Britain. exempt American wise vessels from the payment Of tolls, he attaches less importance than the folly of surrendering right in advance of determination whether it does not really belong That it does belong some English newspapers and lawyers have agreed with American legal authorities. But the dis pute the matter raises just such a question The Hague tribunal created adjust Into that court may take question involving tional honor. But would be dishonored should persist in the violation treaty and would equally dishonor ourselves if should render right which entitled under the treaty.
