The Dummy Detective. i;v ii. c. iHiiKiB. . AS the youngest detective on the fotrc mul was burn ing to distinguish myself.

If they is tliey often dil to bavr their gme they laid tlie fault to the paper for : niakii.;: the allair puMic mid thus giving tie rogues an opportunity to tlip away k cover up tlieir tracks. 4 one day while I was meditating if it ill In't pay me to go to Knghiti 1 nnd 1 -Ct( h Mi . .lack, the Hipper, I was called lljto the inner sauctum liy our chief and 1 ' tillered to report for duty on tho nior. row at oil'1 of the largest and most fash i lot al ilu utail dry-goods stores iu the citj . 1 was there to sec the head of the house as 4 from him learn what I was to do. J A 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 it didn't look liko n job wntreiu I should run a risk of life or 1 lTlib n great reputation, I was well p! jLed at the commission and resolved tt. i ll my part of it should u t bo a failure, rdiugly the next' morning found mo e priv ito oflieo of tho grand store nil a fctrietly conuucutiul interview I its senior partner, yvns informed that in their clonk do jnitut many thefts had recently taken " V ft tc, nnd that in spito of careful watch there wits not the slightest cluo to r 1 io L'armcnts stolcu had been tur ned cloaks of high value, and wero t t tiken from tho dummies standing I the floor, on which said articlos hung to show them to advantugc iso beautify tho salesroom.

' the tjim scouted tho thought that nny of thon had anything to do with tho rob ; .: biriai and gave mo to infer that tho i;-theft) were committed by professional jl .shoplifters. After it little more talk, which helped . ., tne jot at ail, 1 was introduced to tho gentleman at the head of tho cloak rom and Itft to follow my own way of uub tT binglhe culprit. I The tin fts had all, as far as my cloak . maoaner knew, been done during tho , busiest part of tho day whon tho floor r. U fhrcnged with lady shoppers. Tho ,,. handsomest and most expensive gar j tnonta were displayed on tho dummies l(,.nd frequently renewed each day, for, ,r,,Owing to their catching tho ladies' eyes ,., .by hanging naturally from the shapely (;,.lkelefon forms, they sold much quicker than If left imdiiitioguishod umouy tho ,'j.hundreds of others. 'IV., Taking my position in tho establish I ,,jlaenas tho now floor walkor and being ir,.io poiutcd out to tho young lady em ployes, I began my rather unexciting and Wf o easy task. life k m3 Cl)t ,uit nnJ necktie, with my , th-l00 ook enhauced by a tonsorinl art f ,t, and all smiles and bows, I mado out bii.iob tolJ','l'ly husy at doing nothing, d meeting nud greeting tho stylishly y-essed crowds of eager shoppers ami Uroctiug them, as well as my bhort S"ei!owledge of mercantile business let me, uiflo the objects of which they were iu tl: eaich, iuiJ I also put on airs of authority for tho Thocneflt of tho youug salesladies so they nd'fouldu't by their manners cause any tlfuspiciou to the party or parties I was i waikuecting to cnjiturc. situ:. I watched everybody and everything on -noticed that inch cloak-arrayed dummy t u.vas generally being examiued by one or lore admiring and enthusiastic female loppen, who not only used their spurk ng eyes, but also their daintily gloved l0Ul.ngcrs in obtaiuing a knowledgo of tho annenti displayed as a bait for their jil)SUfcbauds' hard earned money. ,f , I noticed, too, that probably talf of din!'

J aaw many moro things which aroused -eni -Jf uplcions and curiosity during the 1 ,.,y d I "over for a moment left my Ration not even for lunch till the 'J 'lhl wai closed for tho night and all ' ,w hand had gone. " .Then, to my surprise and chagrin, I ' M informed by the mauagor that two juable cloaks had been stolen right tdur c j noe. ,-amU i r. Mii I The job of catching thodhlcf wiun'l at easy aa I supposed and I began to think I wasn't much of a detective, after all at least, when thero was a woman in the case. But I dared not show any lgm of not knowing my business, and assuming an 'all right" manner, I told my clonk mnn that on tho next day the bird would be trapped, as it always took a while to mako observaions nnd form theories, and then I arranged to meet In in on tho floor early in tho coining morning beforo any of tho employes arrived. Reforo I went to sleep that night 1 laid my plans. In tho morning bright nnd early I tvn around and with tho manager nlono meat on the cloak floor to mako tho needful pre parations to distinguish or extinguish myself. - Solocting otio of tho largest dummies and seeing that the brown muslin dress over its skeleton framo was iu good or der nn 1 reached to tho floor, I told inj astonished dry goods mnn that I intended to hide under it nnd thero lie in wait for the thief, w horn I meant to nub when tin cloak over mo was removed, bcin-j, of ctmrso, able to know that by the light of the salesroom shining through tho thiu muslin covering. He smiled at the queerness of the pro cccding, but told mo to go nhea 1 nnd promised to be on hand iu case I wanted i assistance. Cutting on the dummy an elegant i rloak for bait, hu helped me to hido so- j eurely under it, nnd, wishing mo success- : he left mo with a laugh which, I must say, I didn't feel liko echoing. Soon I heard tho storo peoplo tramp ing in nml tho young salesladies trip- ' ping by me nnd chatting gaily as they laid asido their wraps and hats preparatory j to commencing tho labors of tho day. I They seemed immensely merry over ! something very funny, nnd their peals of musical laughter sounded sweet to inv ' eager ears until, alas, I sadly discovered that I, the new floorwalker, was the sub ject of their witticisms and ridicule. How I wanted to suddenly pop out from my ignoble hiding plnco nnd siiueleh them ns they deserved, but tho certainty of only making nnself morn ridiculous and being met with redoubled laughter kept me iu my mean nnd uu happy position uudcr a femnlo skirt. by and by, nnd greatly to my mind's relief, tho smart remarks followed by j-falsof merriment gave way to the slcr hum and bustle of businesa. Tor hours I sat in my cramped nnd un comfortable hiding place, feeling liko it fool, and, no doubt, looking like one. t'raily excited shoppers brushed against the dummy, beneath which a bigger dummy squatted, and several times nenrly knocked it over, so I bad plenty of oc cupation in holding it down. Onco the cold sweat ea ne out nil over me and my hair stood up ttraight wdien some ouo tried to lift my strangu tent front tho floor and expose the "handsome new floor-wulkcr," squatting liko a tailor, nnd looking liko a boiled lobster under it. You may bolievo 1 held ou with a grip which death itsjolf couldn't unchtso till tho danger was gone. iSooi Juno came. Hungry, tn'v .f orjojd nnd with bones aching from cramp, thero I was and there I hud to stick till night or my anxiously hoped for shop lift :r came if that was her day. I heard tho clock atriko '3" and 3," and " V and in spito of patienco aud grit, and pride, and everything, I swore at myself nnd laughed at myself, and vowed to myself that never moro would I undertake to bo smarter than a womvi. Henceforth I should confine my dct.-ctiva abilities exclusively to male "Jack tho Kippers" or banc cashiers, or elso peddlo peanuts for a living. While thus engaged in sorrowful meditations and trying painfully to ca-o my cramped body without exciting at tention, I was urouseJ by some one tug ging at the cloak, nud lifting tiu dummy skirt I could jut sou a pair of dainty leet. Then, iu uu instant, oil tie) cloak slipped the dim ligh shiuiu ; through the dummy's muslin coverin telling me nud, like a flash, 1 sprung from my hiding hole aud of all tho shrieks and blushes aud indignation I ever knew, thoso from tho elegantly dressed aud exquisitely beautiful young ludy I had cupturod took the prize. At once I was tho centre of a panic stricken and terribly angry mob of females who wanted to kill mo, and toss what was left of my miscmblo carciiss out the window. Aud if the big, de partment manager had not promptly rescued mo from their clutches, after my coat tails had been ripped oil and my flue side whiskers badly dutnaged, they'd have done it. During tho battle, -nnd careless of my injuries, I kept tight hold of my fair prisoner. Her sweet, innocent and beautiful in dignation seoinod so roal that I feared uu awful mistako had been made, and be gun to figure how many years' salary I should have to pay for aamagus. llut when sho was searched, with duo apolo gies for tho apparsut necessity, the amount of pawn tickets for cloaks found by the female searcher, saved my baeou and put mo in the paper us one of tho most skillful detectives on record. But no moro dummies for me. Nlcklo- Armored Ships Can't (Jo North.
