Tombstone epitaph., 1915-08-22

the man had dipped in and out un. noticed. due to his plain appearance ana his mAtter-of-fact manner.
 The square-chested man in the black derby was Christopher Poe, the promi- nent banker from the north, enjoying his second weeks vacation in the car nival city. He had no sooner shut the Dubois gate behind him. and stuffed the skinlike object into his pocket. than he slipped through the collecting crowd. without touching any of the onlookers or attracting attention by any unusual move. He walked to the eorne, without once turning around. crossed the street. and returned brisk. ly to the edge of the crowd just in time to hear Hopkins cross-Question' ing the small boy.
 Poe nodded his head with the rest and agreed quickly with somebody who had pointed out at random the di rection he had taken. As a member of the crowd. as an unobtrusive unit, he was utterly unnoticeable. He stayed no longer than the rest, and said. jus, like everybody else in parting from the man who stood next him:
 "Ill bet 1t was the feller in the derby hat. Wonder what 1t was the kid said he took of the dog"
 Having heard all the facts and con lectures. Poe walked to the corner again. turned up the side street, and paced slowly down Bourbon past 6 block of cheap lodging houses. largely occupied by vaudeville artists. travel ing fakers. and other true Bohemians Each old house had. like so many oi the dwellings in the French quarter ol New Orleans, a courtyard in the rear divided from the courts on the next street by high brick walls.
 Stopping at the house which backed directly against old Dubois. Christo pher Poe inserted a key, twisted Il sharply twice, glanced up and dowr the street, opened the door. and stepped in. closing 1t quickly after him and standing motionless at the spot where his first step had brought him
 That he was listening intently was disclosed by his suspended breath. h that moment one hardly would have described him as Hopkins had-a hu man blank. His eyes were focused in tently toward the top of the dim. wind ing old staircase in front of him; his mouth was drawn into a firm, pur poseful line: his form was 1.-the and strong; he seemed the very embodi

watch-dial to the Twiriey Twins and just a souvenir" as he saw their eyes riveted on the wrinkled skin in his other hand.
 Mrs. Twirley sniffed cautiously twice, glinted her eyes at Poe, and stepped back quickly to seat herself on two suit-cases in a corner, covering them completely with her skirts. Her husband stood stupefed, snifing the air also. and staring at the unique watch-case.
 "Came from Paris" continued Poe pleasantly. rubbing the skin between his fingers fondly.
