After it little more talk, which helped

gentleman at the head of tho cloak rom
and Itft to follow my own way of uub

I The tin fts had all, as far as my cloak

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.

Tho rccont remarkable discovery of
