circumvent any danger Ava and his gang might contemplate, but also gain
 ample evidence for their conviction and expulsion from this country. In addition to this would be in position to block the daring plans of this inter- national thief. Altogether it seemed to me that the wiser course for me to pursue was to wait, and watch, ready to act at any moment, but keeping my own council until certain that the specific moment had arrived.
 Nor was I Oblivious to the strange impression left upon me by my en- counter with Marie Gessler. She had interested me oddly, and I could not drive her memory from my thoughts. Our moment of conversation had been peculiar, and her words and actions remained as a constraint Why had she stood there, her hand on the door, and talked to me in that mocking way? Had she a purpose, an aim? Did she believe my explanation? or was her suspicion aroused into a de- termination to verify it in some way? Although could not decide, yet doubt less the latter theory was the most probable. That was why had been pledged to call at "247 Le Compte street" and ask for Miss Conrad" This was the same place where Harris had secretly met Krantz. Evidently 1t was another headquarters for these precious villains. Once there, and safely in their power. the truth of my identity could easily be established. Was that her idea?

DENIES CROW IS ALL BAD Bird That May Be Said to Have Few Friends Finds Defender in
 Eastern Writer.

Volumes have been written about the crow, remarks a writer in the Christian Science Monitor. He Is famous-yes, and infamous, to not a few of his biOgraphers. Thus he re- sembles Napoleon. Further, he resem- bles Napoleon in his complete self reliance, his cosmOpolitanism, and his many-sidedness. The crow is our com posite, or ideal bird. He is typical of the class ayes. Frequenting our average or general environment and climate, he has adapted himself to the requirements of that average sur rounding in an all-around manner. He is about a mean proportional in size between the humming bird and ostrich. He can fly enough, walk enough, wade enough. His beak is long enough, strong enough, round enough, curved enough, so that little which is food de- fes his efforts at utilization. He does not object to hot summers, wet springs, dry autumns, and icy winters. And, in line with this almost Grecian equilib- rum of faculties, experts studying his economic status have at length con- cluded that his virtues about balance his shortcomings in this field also.

And then, of course, you hunted up Alva?"
 "The next morning, before any bank opened. I thought over it all night and got up peach of a story. l needed it, too, for this Ava was a smooth guy. It took some nerve to get him, but I knew, through Horner's memorandum, some things about him he never supposed was known up in this country; so when I sprung them, naturallike, he quit being offish, and gave me the glad hand"
 'Who is he2 A crank?"
 ''Not by d-d sight. He's a cap- tain in the Chilean army, military at- tache to the embassy at Washington, intrusted with certain work. But he's really working to overthrow the pres ent Chilean government-gettin up a revolution down there. I lied until T was black in the face, but I must have kept within bounds, for he got to liking me real well. He was a high-roller, and I put him onto some things in New York he had never been steered against before. That made a hit with him. There wasn't nothing said about cashing up all day long, and early the next morning we breezed into a downtown hotel, and went to bed"
 What hotel?"
 Search me. We'd been tanking up on champagne and were drunker in the morning than when we turned in. That's the honest truth. All either of us wanted for breakfast was a cup of coffee. We got that at a little dump on some side street, so as to brace up a little" He paused to laugh at the recollection, helping himself to a third cigar.

 was; nothing I cared about, but it cost the guy hundred bucks, and he was daffy over it. Anyhow, that night put me solid with Ava"
 But the money? He's never drawn dt?"
 Not a dinky red. He claims the time hasn't come yet, and that it's safer with Krantz. But I've stuck to him like a brother and he's took me in with his gang, so now I know every move that's going on. I'm on the in- side, all right, and now it's beginning to get hot"
 'They are ready to act?"
 Sure; that's what the meeting was about tonight"
