TLe spectacle of ;i tree standing upon a
tower of the Unitarian church fn the city
of CTtica, X. V.. bas aroused much Interest
as w til as dtacuaston as to what i really
eneiitiul to jUint life lu unlrr that (level-
opintut mav continue.
This mo'jutain ush luH been growing
for SO years upon a narrow ledge of kana
tone, sprouting from a joint In t'ue ma
soury less than an ineh In Width. The
main stem, just above the stone, at the
present time has a diameter of 3 Inches.
The tree is 15 or 10 feet in height, and
possibly 8 feet across it widest part; the
branches are thick and numerous, nuii for
some years each autumn they have been
bright, wiih thevMd scarlet berries pe
culiar to this species of tree.
Protruding from n chink in a mortared
wall. 43 feet above the treer, exposed to
the glare of the snn In the summer and the
fnmts of many ssvere winters, its roots
only having the mortared interstices of
masonry through which to penetrate in
search of nutriment, the question may
well be uskej. When- does this tree obtain
the dements that enter into tin- composi
tion of all plant life? Is It, possible that it

absorbing from the air and lliniilili its

CHAPTER IV.
WHAT JOBS BAXOI uau to tux
It was one o'clock when wc left No.
:s Lauriston gardens. Sherlock Holmes
led trie- to the nearest telejfruph utfletf,
when to he dttpatohed u louy telegraJBa
He then bailed u cab. and ordered the
driver to tuko Us to the address given
u by l.estrade.
"There is nothing lilts tir-t hand evi
dence," he remarked; "as a matter of
fact, my mind is entirely made up
anon the case, imt still wo may us well
learn all that is to be lonmed."
"YOU anUUO me. Holmes," said I.
'Surely you are not us sure as you pre
tend U be of all those particulars
which you gave."
"There's no room for a mistake," ho
answered. "The very first thing
which I obsorvfd on arriving then
was that a cab bad modetwo rute with
ita wheels close to the .'tirli. Now, up
to last night, we have had no rain for
a week, s, that those wheels, which
left inch a deep Impression, must have
been there during the night. Then
were the LUSraa 01 tne UOrse s lavls,
too, the outline of one of which waa
far more clearly cut than that of tho
other three, iho'.vlng that.thnt wus a
new shoe. Since the cub wus there
after the rain began, and was not
there at any time during the inoiMii:?;
I have Uregson's word for that It j
follows that it uuiot have been there
during the night, and, therefore, that
it brought those two individuals to the
house."
"That seems simple enough," said I;
"but bow about the other mail's '
height?"
"Why. the height of u mail, in nine
eases out of ten, can be told from tho I
length oi his stride. It It a simple
Calculation enough though there is no
use my boring you with ligures. I
had this fallow's stride, both on the
clay outside and on the dust within.
Then 1 had a way of cheeking my eel
eolation. When a man writes on a!
wall, his instinct leads him to write
cited. That is shown by the increased
length of his strides, tie was talking
all the while, and working himself up,
no doubt, into a fury. Thon tho
j tragedy occurred. I've told you all I
know myself, now, for the rest Is mere
I lUrmlse and conjecture. We have a
gpml worftlnf basis, however, on which
', to start. We must hurry up, lor I
want to go to Halle'l concert, to hear
I Kortnon Ncruda, this afternoon. '
This conversation had occurred v, bile
j our cab had been threading its way
through a long sncoesslon of dingy
streets and dreury by-WaVS. In (lie
dingiest and dreariest of them our
driver suddenly oamu to a standi
That's Audley court in there," he
said, pointing to a narrow slit in the
line of dead-colored brick. "You'll
lind me here when you come hack."
Audley court was not an attractive
locality. The narrow passage led us
Into a Quadrangle paved with ilags umi
lined by sordid dwellings, We picked
I our way among groups of dirty chil
dren und through lines of discolored
linen until we.cume to No. 40, the
i door of w hich was decorated with u
small slip of brass, on which the name
RaUCe was engraved. On inquiry we
found that the constable was in bed,
and we were shown into a little front
parlor, to await his coming,
lie appeared presently, looking u lit
tle irritable at being disturbed in his
slumbers, "1 made my report ut the
Office," he said.
Holmes took a half-sovereign from
his pocket, and played w Ith it pensively.
'We thought that we should like to
hear It all from your own Hps," he said.
"1 shall be most happy to tell you
anything 1 can," the constable an
swered, with his eyes upou the little
golden disk.
"Just let us hear it all in your own
way, as it occurred."
Elan 00 sat down on the horse hair
sofa and knitted hit brows, M though
determined not to omit anything in his
narrative.

of those precepts of observation and

"The linjier-nails and the Trichiucp- '

"And the florid face." I asked.
"Ah, that was a more daring shot. 1
Aonjfb I have no doubt that I wn i

1 passed my hand over my brow, i
"My head is in a whirl," I remarked;'

Above all, why should the second man

My companion untied approvingly.

about two, or a little after I thought
I would take a look round, and see
that all was right down the l!ri.
ton road. It was precious dirty and
lonely. Not a soul did I meet all the
way down, though a cub or two went
past me. -I was a-strollin' down,
thlnkin' between ourselves bow un

therefore, at seeing a light in the win
dow, and I Suspected as something was
wrong. When I got tn the door--"
"You stopped, und than walked back
to the garden gate," my companion in
terrupted. "What did you do that for'.'''
Ranoe gave a violent jump, and
stared at Sherlock Holmes with the ut
most amazement upon his features.
"Why, that's true, sir," ho said;
'though how you came to knew it.
Heaven only knows! Ye see, when I
got up to the door, it was so still und
so lonesome that I thought I'd be none
the worse for some one with me. I
ain't af eared of anything on this Bide
of the grave; but I thought that maybe
it was him that died o' tho typhoid In
specting the dralUS What killed him.
The thought gave me a kind o turn,
and I walked back to the gate to see il

"Yes, I know oil tlint you saw. You

John Hanee sprang to his feet with a
frightened face and suspicion in bis
eyas. "Where wat yon hid to see nil

"should."
Holmes laughed, and threw his card
seeing that 1 hud to prop him up me
and -Mutcber between us. Uu was a
long chap, with a red face, the lower
part muliied round "
"That will do," cried Holmen. "What
became of him?"
"We'd enough to do without lookin1
after him," tho policeman laid, ka an
aggrieved voice. "I ll wuger be found
bis way homo all right."
"How wus he dressed?"
"A brown overcoat."
"Had he a whip iu his hand'.'"
"A whip no."
"He must have left it behind." mut
tered my Companion. "You didn't hap
pen to see or hear u cab after that'.'"
"No."
"There's a half sovereign for you,"
my companion said, stunding up and
taking his bat. "I am afraid, Ranee,
that 3-ou will never riso in the force.
That head of yours should be for use
us well a? ornament. You might have
gained your sergeant's stripes last
night. 1 he man whom you held iu
your hands is the mau who holds tho
clew of this mystery, und whom wo
are .seeking. There is no use of argu
ing iihoiit it now ; 1 tell you thut it u
bo. Come along, doctor."
We started oif for the cab together,
leaving our Informant incredulous, but
obviously uncomfortable,
"The blundering fool!" Holmes suld,
bitterly, as we drove back to our lodg
ings, ".lust to think of his having
such tin incomparable bit of good luck,
and not taking ad vantage of it."
"I am rather in the dark still, tit
true that the description of this man
tallii s with your Idea of the second
party in this mystery. Hut why
should he come hack to the house after
leaving it? This Is not the way of
criminals."
"The ring, man, the ring; that was
what he came back for. If we have
no other way of catching him we can
always bait our line with the ring. I
shall have him, doctor, I'll lay you two

you for It all, I might not have gone bui

Leaning back iu the cab, this ama
