"It was when I was a youngster,"
snlil he. "There was a bljr city man In
those dnys who was known to have a
very valuable gold watch. I followed
him nbout for several days before I
could get a. chiuiee; but when 1 did set
one, you may be sure 1 did not throw It
away, lie found, to his disgust, when

help it, and accordingly he put nit ad

thirty pounds reward for Its return, mid
promising that no questions would be
asked. He gave the address of his

the advertisement. The tiling sounded

would prove to be. He was a genlal-
looKlng old lellow, and he led me away
with him Into his study.
" 'Well, my lad,' said he. 'what Is It?'
" 'I've come about that watch of
yours,' said I, 'I think I can lay my
hands on it.'
" 'Oh, it was ynu that took It," said he.
"'No, I answered; 'I know nothing
whatever about how you lost it. I have
been sent by another party to see you
about it. Kven If you have me arrest
ed, you will not llnd out anything.'
"'Well,' he said. 'I don't want to be
hard on you. Hand it over, and here Is
my cheque for the amount.'
Lheques won t do, said I; 'I must
have It In gold.'
" 'It would take an hour or so to col
lect in gold.' said he.
" 'That will Just suit,' I answered,
"for I have not got the watch with me,
I'll go hack and fetch it, while you raise
the money.
"I started olT, and got the watch
where I had left It. When I came back
the old gentleman was sitting behln 1
his study table, with the llttL- heap of
gold in front of him.
Here is your, money,' he said, and
pushed it over.
" 'Here is your watch,' said I.
"He was evidently d. 'lighted to get It
back; and after examining It carefulv,
and assuring himself that It was nun"
the worse, he put It Into the watch
pocket of hia coat with a grunt of satis
faction.
" 'Now, my lad.' he said. 'I know It
was you that took the watch. Tidl me
how you did it, and I don't mind giving
you nn extra live-pound note.'
"'I wouldn't tell you in any case,1
raid I: 'but especially I wouldn't tell
you when you have a wltnes hid behind
4h.it curtain.' You see. I had all my wits
about me, and It didn't escape me that
1he curtain was drawn tighter than It
lind been before.

added as I niarclved toward a cup

stood tip and opened It. I brushed
past him, opened the hall door, nnd

no time. I don't know how long the old
gentleman took to (hid It out, hut In
passing him at the nor, I managed to

There was a tone of triumph In the con
clusion of his anecdote which showed
limit his pride In his smartness far sur
passed his repentance of his misdeed
He ' .-emed pleased utthe astonishment
and amusement I expressed at his

"Yes," he continued with a laugh, "It

There was one rather curious Incident
which occurred In my career. You may
possibly have seen the anecdote, for It

"Pray le me hear It," sad I.
"Well, It Is) hard lines telling stories
against one's pelf, but this was how It
happened: I had made a rather good
haul, and Invested some of the swag In
buying a very fine diamond ring. I
thought it would be somethng to full
lmrk upon when all the ready cash was
gone and times were hard. I had Just
purchased it, nnd was going back to my
lodgings In the omnibus, when, ns luck

young lady came In and took her seat
beside me. I didn't pay much attention
to her at first; but after n- time some
' thing hard in her dress knock "d up
ognlnst my hand, which my expert
fncpd touch soon niadeotit to be a purje.
It struck me that I could not puss the
time more profitably or ngreably than
by making this purse.my own. I hud
to no It very carefully; but I managed
n,t last ito wriggle my hand Into her
nulier light pocket, and I thought tti
' I ".
ft -
Job was over. Just at his moment she
rose abruptly to leave the 'bus, and I
had hardly time to got my hand with
the purse in It out of her pocket without
teotion. It was not until she had been
gone some time that I found out Ithatt in
draivlng out my hand in that hurried
manner the new and Ill-fitting ring had
slipped ovw my linger and remained In
the young lady's pocket. I sprang out
and ran In the direction in which she
had gone with the Intention of picking
her pocket once again. She had dis
appeared, however; and from that day
till this I have never Beit eyes on her. To
make the matter worse, there was only
four pence half-penny in coppers In
side the purse. Sairve me right for try-
ng to rob such a pretty girl; still. If I
had that two hundred quid now I should
no be reduced to Good heavens, for
give me! What am 1 saying?"
He seemed Inclined to relapse into
silence after this; but I was determined
to draw lilm out a Jittle more. If I could
possibly manage It. "There Is less per
s mil risk in the branch you have been
talking of," I remarked, "than there Is
in burglary."
Ah!" he said, warming to his sub
ject once again, "it Is the higher game
which is best worth aiming at. Talk
about sport, sir, talk about fishing or
hunting! why It is tame in comparison!
Think of the great country house with
Its men servants and Its dogs and its
lirearms, and you only with your Jim

"People generally look upon it as
quite the reverse," I remarked.
I was never one of those blundering
life-preserver fellows," said my com
panion. "1 did try ,my hand at garrot
ting once; but it was against my princi
ples, mid 1 gave It up. I have tried ev
erything. 1 have been a bed-ridden
widow with three young children; but
do object to physical force."
"You have been what?" said I.
"A bed-ridden widow. Advertising,
you know, and getting subscrlptons.
I have tried itlrem all. You seem Inter
ested in these experiences," he contin
ued; "so 1 will tell you another anec
dote. It was the inarroWi-st escape from
penal servitude that ever I had In my
life. A pal and I had gons down on a
country beat It doesn't signify where It
was and taken up our headquarters
ir a littlti provincial town. Somehow
It got noised abroad that we were there,
and householders were warned to be
eatvful. as suspicious characters h:t;l
been seen In the neighborhood. We should
have changed our plans when we saw
the game wus up; but my chum was a
ducky fellow, and wouldn't consent to
back down. Poor little Jim! He was
only thirty-four round the chest, nnd
ibout twelve about the biceps; but
there Is not a measuring tape in En
gland could have given the size of his
heart. He said we were In for It, and
we must stick to It: so I agtved to stay,
and we chose Morley hall, the country
house of a certain Col. Morley, to begin
with."
'Now, this Col. Morley was about the
Inst man ill the world that we should
have meddled with. He was a shrewd,
cool-headed fellow, who had knocked
about and seen tho world, and it seems
that he took a special pride In the de
tection of criminals. However, we
know nothing of all this at that time: so
we set forth hopefully to have a try at
the house.
'The reason that made us pick him
out anion,? the rest was that he had a
good-for-nothing groom, who was a
tool In our hands. This fellow had
drawn up a rough plan of the premises
for us. The place was pretty well locked
up and guarded, nnd the only weak
point we could see was a certain trap
door, the padlock of which was broken.
and which opened from the roof into
one of the lumber rooms If we could
only find a method of reaching the roof,
we might force a way securely from
above. We both thought the plan rather
a good one. and it had a spice of origin
ality about it which pleased us. It is
not the mere J. w!s or plate, you know,
that a good cracksman thinks about.
The neatness of the Job nnd his reputa
tion for smartness are almost as Impor
tant In his eyes.

Then we set out one dark night, Jim
ami 1, and got over the avenue railing.1!
and up to the house without meeting a
soul. It was blowing hard, I remember
and the clouds hurrying across the tky.
We had a good look at the front of the
house, and then Jim went round to the
garden side. He came running back In
a minute or two In a great statu of de
light. 'Why, Hill,' ho said, gripping ma
by the arm. 'there never was such n bit
of luck! They've been repairing the
roof or something, and they've l.ft i.'.io
ladder standing.' We went round to
gether, and there, sure enough, was the
ladder towering above our heads, and
one or two laborers' hods lying about,
which showed that some work hail been
going on during Hie day. We had a
good look round, to see that everything
was quiet, and then, we climbed up,
Jim first and I after him. We got to the
