FATE'S STRANGEST MOVE.
I was only a young man then
twenty-six Just married, and with a
reputation to make. At that time the
whole detective staff were engaged on
the mysterious Damlan case, which
you no doubt remember. No?
It was this: Miss Damlan was a
wealthy old lady who lived on tho
outskirts of Windsor. She was eccen
tric, but generous, and lived alone
with a man and his wife as servants,
whom she treated very kindly.
One morning the female servant, al
most dead with fright, crawled Into
the Windsor police Btnllort with the
Intelligence tliut thieves had broken
Into the house during the night, and
that something dreadful bad happen
ed. Miss Dnmlnn had heard them and
cried out. Petworth, her husband, had
gone to Miss Damlnn's aid. She her
self was so terrified that she dared
E' lot move. She heard a groan, and
ay paralyzed with terror till it was
(light, and had then crept down the
.back staircase, and brought the news.
What had really taken place she did
not know.
; Two officers went back with her.
fThey found Petworth on the stairs,
'unconscious from a great wound In
filB head, and Miss Damlan outside
her bedroom door, stone dead.
1 Petworth was taken to the Infirm
ary at once, and the hue and ory was
jralsed. Windsor telegraphed to us.
fTwo of use went. We came to the
conclusion that It was a London Job.
We worked hard to secure the mur
derers. We made every Inquiry at
Windsor and at the railway stations.
We closely watched all known thieves
In town, and arrested on suspicion
those whom we thought likely. But It
was useless. For several weeks we
exerted ourselves to the utmost, but
It became one of those many crimes
that seem fated to be a secret. Of
course the papers, who were wiser
than we, were very severe with us on
account of our failure. We had come
to the conclusion that it was one of a
series of robberies that had taken
place within a radius of thirty miles
from London, which had all of them
completely baffled us.
One evening, about a month after
the murder, being off duty, my wife
asked me to take a message to her
brother, a Strand tobacconist's assist
ant My wife used to tell me I was
the handsomest man of the force, and
he delighted in making me look as
mart as possible. As I was going
out Bhe plucked a carnation and stuck
It In my buttonhole, laughingly de
claring I looked "Just lovely." Little
did we guess that that simple flower
would bring fortune to one and death
to another.
I found my brotliw-ln-law was not
there, being out on business, but was
expected back by the train due at
Charing Cross at 7.15; so I Btrolled up
to the station to meet htm. A train
had just arrived, and I sauntered up
and down the platform watching the
arrivals.
. Everybody had cleared away from
the platform when a veiled lady came
hurrying by. She looked at me and,
I observed, took particular notice of
the flower In my coat. She made as
It to pass me, but turned around.
"Good evening, Mr. Trenchard," she
aald In an Inquiring tone.
I do not know what spirit of mis
chief it was that prompted me, but I
answered "Good evening."
"I should have known you by the
description I've had of you, sir, as
well as by your flower, but I thought
you would speak first"
What did that woman mean? A de
tective Is always suspicious; a young
detective, eager to achieve fame, more
than suspicious. There was something
about the woman I didn't like, and I
determined to let her talk on, little
dreaming what was to follow.
I noticed that the tone of voice did
not correspond with her dress. She
was dressed richly, if not exactly ele
gantly; but her speech showed that
he was a person of little education.
"Although you have never seen me
before sir, you may put full confidence
In me. I am Bill's wife, you know,
and one of you now. You know, sir,
how things turned out?
"Yes, but let me have the particu
lars again, I said adroitly.
"Well, BUI and Alec are In a blue
funk; I never thought Bill would be
o nervous as he Is; they want to go
over the water for a bit Bill sold I
must tell you as they didn't mean to
do for the old lady, nor even hurt her'
(I gave such a start that if the woman
had been observing me she must have
guessed there was something wrong)
"bat she screamed, and that old fool
her man, came, and it was a new
BALLAST.
Clod, dwir Hod! Doea ha know her port.

Or, blind astray, doea ahe make her

We've been in a funk ever since.

never suspected us. But it makes us
feel nervous to see them about. Bill
and Alec want to get off this week,
and they want you to munage It for
them."
'What do you wish me to do?" I
asked.
Well, Bill's plan Is this: He thinks
the best wny would be to escape
dressed up as sailors. He Bays would
you send or bring two suits of sail
or's clothes, and give them to me here.
Then Bill wants you to bring your
yacht round Into the Thames, and
fix a night for Bill and Alec to come.
They'll pretend to be sightly slewed
if any one Is about and you must be
.looking out for 'em and blow em up
for not being on board before. Bill's
sure they can get through all right
that way.'
'And supposing I refuse?" I asked,
rather foolishly.
She looked at me In surprise.
"Refuse, sir! Oh, I know sir, you
won't refuse. I said to Bill, S'pose
Mr. Trenchard says no, how then?'
Bill only laughs and says: 'It'll be all
right, for he hasn't forgotten the Le-
word business."
I had great difficulty In aignln re
pressing my emotion. Was I about
to solve the Leward mystery too?
"Oh, very well," I added hastily, as
If mention of the Laward affair was
enough. "I'll be here myself tomor
row night at the same time. And be
sure you come yourself. It would be
too risky with 'tecs about and BUI
and Alec nervous, for anyone else to
ccme; and I'll let you know tomorrow
night when I'll have the yacht round."
"Thank you, sir; I knew you would.
And lie sure to bring the suits In a
Gladstone beg. Peelers are down on
bundles."
"Yes, very well; and now you'd bet
ter go. Have a handsom?"
"Yes, thank you, sir," and she was
scon out of the station.
I was so excited and elated that I
scarcely knew what I was doing as I
paced up and down the platform
thinking over what I had Just heard
till another Incident called me to my
self. Another train had just come In that
was evidently late. One of the pas
sengers about my size and looks, and
with a flower like mine In his coat
lingered on the platform, looking
keenly about I saw it all. The train
late, and my carnation had revealed
the Damlan murderers to me. I took
the flower out of my coat, and then
called a smart looking porter.
"Look her," I said . "do you know
me?"
"No," he said.
"Well, I come from Scotland Yard
and I've a job on, and I want you to
do a little for me. It's not much, and
It you do it well here's a soverlgn, for
you."
Yes, I'll do it," be Bald, his eyes
glistening.
"There a igentleman up on the plat
form yonder with a red carnation in
his coat, looking around for some one.
I want you to go up to him and say,
'A young lady was here, sir, and she
said would I tell a gentleman with a
carnation in his buttonhole that all
was right; that she had gone back,
and that it would be better not to
trouble you.' You can remember?"
Yes?" he nodded
And If ya can find out whether
he's going bacw, and where to."
He started off, and I stood where
I could see them without being Been,
Presently the porter came back.
"He lookfed mighty pleased, slrj'
and then said: 'How soon is there a
train for Westsea?' 'In ten minutes
sir,' I said; 'further platform. And
off he's gone."
"Thank you, you've done well, not
a word) about this, now," and I gave
him a sovereign.
I ran to the office, booked, and then
went toward the Westsea train. I
found my gentleman in a flrst-class
carriage. I got Into a second. I looked
out at every station to be sure that
"Westsea" was not a blind, but no,
he got out at WesUea, and I followed.
"Hansom!" I heard him call, and
one came up. He was evidently well
known, for the driver did not need
any directions. I walked up to the
next In the rank.
"A cab, sir?"
"No," I said; "but here's a shilling
if you'll tell me It that Isn't Lord
Hayleet who Just took the hansom.
"Oh, no, sir; that is Mr. Trenchard
of Westmare House.'
"What is her
"Oh, a hlndepedent gentleman, sir.
Marie his pile In the north, and came
to live down here. He's a nice and
openhunded gentlemnn, Is Mr. Trenh
ard. He's In the Town Council and a
magistrate, and It strikes me he'd be
In parliament If Westsea only bad a
say In the matter. His yacht, the Cleo
patra, Is In the bay now."
Thank you," I said, as I tipped
him. And, well content, I went back
to town.
Ill
I told my superior that I had a clue
to the Damlan murderes if they would
give me a free band.
"Certainly, Beckett," aid my
chief; "and I hope you'll succeed.
Promotion is sure If you do."
At 9 o'clock that evening I met
Bill's wife again. I handed her a port
manteau containing two sailor suits,
and gave her explicit directions.
You will 'tell them to come down
to Septon 'Wharf, and I will be, there
myself, and some of the crew. Or,"
recollecting myself, "I will send my
captain."
'Thank you, sir, very much. Bill
will bring a thousand for you, and be
says that they will be able to do a
bit of work In Paris, for Bill can
Parlez-vons pretty well."
'Now, listen. Tell them to say 'Houp
la!' when they get to the warf and see
a boat, and I will answer with the
same. Now Just go over what I have
told you."
sra'sv-ts. ao-m ' forgase Igoe b
Straightway she recounted my In
structions, and with a cordial "Good
night" she left me.
I had a busy time the next day. I
applied for, and was granted, as mnny
men as I wanted. I sent one, on whom
I placed most reliance, down to West
sea to watch Trenchnrd, while I ar
ranged the capture of 1)111 and Alec.
My heart beat wildly as, with four
policemen disguised as sailors, we
rowed up to the rendezous. I Instruct
ed my men that directly the two came
In the boat they were to shove oft
(It was hardly likely thnt they could
find out the deception in thu dark),
and when I gald "Now" they were to
get up and handcuff the pair.
We lay for some time so perfectly
still that we could almost hear our
hearts beat, for my men were suf
fering from suppressed emotion as
much as I myself. Presently two fig
ures came slowly through the gloom,
and stood above us.
"Houp la!" said one, just loud
enough to be heard.
I responded with the same word, and
rowed the boat close In. They came
down, while I on tbe steps held in the
boat. They peered at me doubtfully,
but I said:
"Its all right; Mr. Trenchard
couldn't come himself, so he sent me.
I'm his sailing master. Jump In quick;
he said we must waste no time."
Full of confidence, they obeyed, and
sat down In the stern beside me. We
went out about thirty yards, when I
said to the one I took to be Bill:
"Just go and sit In the bow; we're
too many here."
I coud see the men quivering as BUI
rose and began to walk carefully to
ward the bow. He had got in the mid
dle of the boat when I cried out:
"Now," and turned on a dark lanten
I had.
Instantly two policemen fell on each
passenger, and in a moment they were
handcuffed.
"Two of you row back, and you,
Stmmonds and Thomas, keep guard."
I will not waste words in describing
the stupefaction of tbe twain.
"Be sure they've no weapons, I
said, "before we land."
They were at once searched, and
we found they each had a revolver.
We took them up the steps, balled
the two cabs we had in waiting, and
took them to the station.
'What's the meaning of this?" said
Bill, who was In the same cab as my
self, when at last he found his tongue.
"Oh, only this," I said sweetly:
The next time you send your wife
to meet somebody, you ought to make
sure she will speak to the right per
son." "Great Scott!" he groaned, "she's
given us away," and, coward-like, he
sobbed aloud.
When the charge was read over to
them, Alec said: "Lord have mercy
on us! It's the rope BUI."
As I had foreseen, we got some
very valuable information. There was
a gang of five with Trenchard as lead
er. From what they said, he was an
extremely daring man. He lived In
grand style at WeBtsea, as I already
knew. He seldom committed a rob
bery himself, but his was the master
mind that arranged all. He moved in
good society, and that aided him in
his crimes, and many of his friends
and acquaintances who had been
robbed little thought that their charm-
lng guest was the head and front of
the theft.
Next morning two of us went down
to Westsea. We were very fortunate.
He was on the station platform, look
ing at the bookstall, when he found
each arm seized, and I said:
"Edward Trenchard, I arrest you.'
Our extreme caution was Justified,
for he fought like a wild beast, and
we had to call assistance before we se
cured him.
The case created quite a sensation,
and for a short time my praises were
sung loudly. We also managed, after
a few weeks, to secure the remaining
members of the gang. Bill and Alec
escaped the rope for what I consider
a worse fate a life sentence.
But Trenchard did not escape. The
Leward murded (I have not time to
give you the particulars) was brought
home to him, and one wild March
morning a flag that hung above a pris
on wall told that the magistrate of
Westsea had paid the penalty of bis
crimes. London Mirror.
THE WORLD'S GREATEST
MARKET.
NIJNI NOVGOROD RUSSIA FAIR IN
ITS OLD GLORY.
Remarkable Gathering of Mussulmans
of Russian Empire Shrewdness of
the Tartars How 8cales Ars Made
Fair Grounds In a Mud Flat
Along the Volga Picturesque Dress
of Attendants.
During the last two and a half years
neither the German eomerclal travel
ler nor his wares have had much
chance to get along tbe Siberian rail
road. Now that the twin line of
steel, running for six thousand miles
from Moscow to Valdlvostok, Is free
from the conveyance of troops, the
Siberian towns, which have been starv
ing for goods, are demanding large
supplies and speedy deliveries. . In the
disturbed condition of ' the country,
howerer, German firms have shown
no eagerness to risk the lives of their
travellers in a region where the value
of life is derreafllngly regarded, nor
to forward goods for which there Is
a very problematic prospect of pay
ment. Accordingly, Mahomet has had
to come to the mountain, and this
season writes Foster Fraser In the
Landan Standard, Nljnl Novgorod is
basking In Its old glory.
The fair has provided opportunity
for a remarkable gathering a con
gress representing twenty million Mus
sulmans In the Russian Empire Mos
lems from south Russia, men who have
taken to tbe garb and customs of the
West, and who, with their luilr cropped
a la Franchise nnd Imperials, dark
gray lounge Jackets and patent leather
boots, might easily be mistaken for
Parisians; Moslems from Mongolia and
Bokhara, men slim nnd sallow and
sedate, with shaven beads and henna
dyed beards; men In long flowing and
embroidered sheepskin coats, boots of
red and turbans of green, who, for
sitting, find the floor more comfortable
than chairs.
The Tartars are the cleverest mer
chants who come to Nljnl Novgorod.
Whether It be In the selling of "over
land" tea believed by the Muscovite
to have been brought by caravan from
China, but which has been sent around
by ship to Odessa and trained to Nl
jnl or in making a fuss with precious
stones which he hints have been stolen
from the mines, and therefore are to
be obtained as a bargain, but which
are imitation, made in a Parisian fac
tory, the Tartar scores.
He stands by his shed or stall, look
ing cold and grimy, his fur cap down
over his ears and his hands hid In the
sleeves of his skin coat, which Is badly
tanned and most unappetizing in odor.
He has wondrous stacks of skins, from
silver fox down to rat. You can walk
the better part of a mile past shops
crowded with skins, most requiring to
be cured. For a year Siberia la hunt
ed for skins to supply the Nljnl Nov
gorod mart Tbe tribes of the north
stalk in the winter; colonies of polit
ical exiles have sometimes little other
means of winning a livelihood than by
getting skins.
Over hundreds of miles of trackless
snow the skins are hauled till a river
is reached. Then by boat they are
brought to some place where tbe Si
berian railway can be touched or are
taken to some affluent of the Volga.
The Tartar merchant has his buyers
everywhere. In his slothful but still
methodical way he meets the skins at
certain points and arrives at Nljnl
Novgorod with perhaps a couple of
thousand pounds worth of goods.
The market Is conducted on strictly
Eastern principles. There is no fixed
price. Everything is worth what it
will fetch. The Tartar asks twice
as much as a thing Is worth, aware all
the time that you know he is asking
double what he will accept You
offer half what the thing Is worth,
aware that he knows that you intend
to Increase the offer. So, much time
Is wasted by him regretfully lowering
his price and you grudgingly raising
your offer, until at the end you come
very near if not actually to the price
you both know to be about right.
There are splashes of tne pictur
esque about the people who attend thi
fair. They have come from all points
of the compass, by the slow and dirty
Russian trains, by the huge, commodi
ous, shallow draughted, naptha driven
Volga boats quite as big as the notor
ious floating towns on American
streams and by caravan. Russians
from the towns are dressed in the
European style, on the German model;
Russians from the country are In wide
trousers and top boots, flapping red
ihirts and thick belts; they are bearded
while the hair is cropped short and the
back of the neck shaved; their women
are plain, stout, flgurless, and have
shawls tied about their heads.
There are the brown cloaked, sheep
ikjn hatted Persians from below tbe
Caucasus mountains; there are al
mond eyed Mongols, shrivel faced and
wisp whiskered; there are tawny Bu
rlats and gay robed men from Bok
hara; there are Innumerable Tartars,
some accompanied by their women
folks; fat, swaddled, wearing collar
box hats of velvet decorated with
pearls.
The fair grounds Is a mud flat lying
icross the Volga from Nljnl Novgorod
proper. There are rows upon rows
jf cheap brick sheds, one story high,
yellow ochred, with a pavement of
jorts. The roadway, once cobbled, Is
mass of disgusting mire. Peasant
sorters, in charge of inconsequent
teams hauling miscellaneous merchan
dise, yell and bawl. A jolting drosky
attempting to dash by splashes the
inlfonn of a Russian officer with Uth
and as the Russian language Is well
I tore d with expletives there is violent
mrsing. Rirslan soldiers, unwashed
and In unkempt clothing, trudge sill'
lenly in the gutter, carrying big loaves
of black bread under their oxters.
A cadaverous, long haired, black
gowned priest goes hurrying by. Old
women cross themselves and young
men spit on the ground. A bunch of
porcine Chinese in blue Jackets and
wliu swinging pigtails come over the
bridge from Chinatown, where alt the
buildings have eaves that leer, and on
the doors are painted rampant dragons
of fearful design, Intended to frighten
away thieves which they probably do.
Tinkle, tinkle and an awkward heave
and bump electric tramcar comes sizz
ling along.
Some Moslems are facing the east,
fancying they look toward Mecca,
which they do not, and are performing
their devotions in the street Moscow
merchants are In an adpolnlng cafe,
and a gramophone blares "I wouldn't
leave my little wooden hut for you."
There Is the constant click of thi
abacus beads on wires, on which we
learned 'to count as children, and with
out which the Ruslsan, inheriting Its
use from Tartar ancestors, cannot
reckon how many two and three total.
A playbill on the side of a rickety
kiosk announces a performance In
Russian, of course of "The Geisha."
Nowhere hare I seen such a Jostling
of East and West
One likes to think Nljnl Novgorod
fair Is Oriental. It Is customary to
associate the Orient with the dazzling.
But there Is nothing dazzling about
the fair. The Eastern (practice is fol
lowed of having all the shops selling
particular wares In one district. I
looked for old silver and found cart
loads of crude Austrian electroplate.
I sought antique rugs and got a head
ache looking at the vile, highly colored
and grotesquely patterned mats manu
factured In German Poland. The only
embroideries wero Imitation rubbish
from Switzerland. In a dirty cafe I
did come across some melancholy Per
sians who had turquoise and opal
stones to sell, and we spent a rainy
afternoon in haggling.
Yet there Is a fascination In the mul
titude of articles. At times one can
Imagine that all the manufactures of
shoddy articles have dumped their
things on Volga-side. Try to picture
a third of a mile of tombstones for
Bale though, Hibernian like, most of
the stones are of wood. Here the
merchant from the far Interior may
acquire a really striking monument
which will make him the envy of hi
neighbors who have never been to the
far. A whole street is devoted to
the sale of Ikons, pictures of salnU
set out In Byzantine style In flaming
gilt, and to be found in every Russian
house In the right hand corner at the
upper end of the room.
There are streets sacred to the salt
of Russaln boots there must be mil
lions of them. Battalions of sacks
laden with raisins block one thorough
fare; another road Js a maze of bales
of wool. A row of shops is given up
to the sale of umbrellas, and there Is
merriment watching the astonished
countenance of a simple peasant wo
man having an umbrella opened In her
face for the first time. Miles upon
miles of cotton goods Rre here, with
no nonsensical half shades about them
but strong and unmistakable reds and
greens and blues and yellows. Half
a street la given up to cheap German
toys.
In the centre of the fair is a large
red brick arcade with shops gelling
the usual tinsel and expensive things,
with the usual band playing In the
afternoon, and the usual row of wooden
faced individuals sitting on benches
and stlldly enjoying the music There
is the usual pestering by importunate
dealers. And there are literally bll
Hons of postcards.
Last evening at sundown I climbed
the hill of the quaint walled fortress
which guards Nljnl Novgorod. The
falling sun was burnishing the doomes
of innumerable churches, a hundred
sweet toned beUs, beaten with wooden
hammers, made the evening melodious.
There was the heavy tramp of full
kitted Russian soldiers mounting the
hill to the fortress; there was the dis
tant babe of a city doing business at
the top of Its voice; down below on
the Volga was the scurrying of tug
boats hauling mammoth cattle boats
and snakelike rafts Into place, and
the constant shrill warning hoots of
the sirens; away eastward, Siberia
ward, stretched a flat and unbroken
land to the very horizon, with a low
ering purple sky deadening to black.
Mending Day in Labrador.
The following morning Duncan an
nounced that it would be necessary
for him to mend his sealskin boots
befare beginning the day's work. He
had pretty nearly worn them out on
the sharp rocks on the portages.
The rest of us were well provided
with oil-fanned moccasins (sometimes
called lurlgans or shoe-packs), which
experience has taught me are the best
footwear for a Journey like ours.
Pete's khaki trousers were badly torn
the day before by brush and were
pretty ragged, and he wished time to
mend them, so I gave the men a little
while in which to make necessary re
pairs before breaking camp. Richards
and Easton wore Mackinaw trousers.
This cloth had not withstood the hard
usage of Labrador travel a week, and
both men, when they had a spare
hour, occupied It in sewing on can
vas patches, until now there was al
most as much canvas patch as Mack
inaw cloth In t'.ise garments. Rich
ards, however, carried an extra pair
of moleskin trousers, and I wore mole
skin. This latter material is the best
obtainable, so far as my experience
goes, for rough traveling in tho brush,
and my trousers stood the trip with
bnt one small patch until winter came.

A striking Instance of the practi
cal usefulness of a knowledge of en
tomology was recently cited by an of
ficial of the Department of Agricul
ture. Red clover was sent to a cer
tain western state, where it previous
ly did not exist, but, to the great
disappointment of the farmers, it
did not thrive. The entomilogists told
the farmers what the matter was;
they had neglected to Import bumble
bees with the clover. The bumble bee
with its long proboscis, was the only
Insect that could reach the honey in
the red clover heads and therefore,
the only one that would fertilize the
flowers.
