As they were about passing from the roomr the woman rushed in, say- ing, excitedly: ‘The smokehouse the door wide open. “The deuce!’ eried the man, and ab- ruptly settiing down the candle he strode from the apartment owed by the woman.

He began looking around again. There was a wild vine ranning along the top of tho bank, at sight of which an idea came to him. He managed to get out his knife, and, after opening it, tossed it up to the child. ‘Take the knife, Bessie, and cut that vine in two; but be careful you don't cut your fingers,”’ he said. She did as directed, and after much difficulty succeeded. ‘“Now puil one end over the bank 80 1 can reach it,”’ he went on.

He covered his operation by a mufiler., He was arrested soon after he left the car and was taken to the East Fifty-first Street Police Station. There he said his name was Kane, He protested hisinnocence in strong, intelligent English. As a thorough search of the prisoner failed to dis- cover the missing gem, the police were almost inclined to release him. locked up, however, and on the arrivai of Detectives Lang and Campbell they were told of the arrest. The detectives hid in a place where a view of the interior of King’s cell could be had by means of a mirror set at an angle. They recognized the in- mate at once as one ef the best-known eriminals in New York. He was pac- ing up and down his cell.
