[ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.] J GUTHREY CLARKE- I BENSON. 'I By BASIL VENN INSLBE. I "We her a great deal about the RU.s8¡',n I detective ?nd how,he will follow a. mystery to the end cf tlie earth," said a gentleman the other day in the smoking compartment of a drawing-room car on the New York Central railroad. "It's my opinion that out detectives right here in America are about as wideawake as any in the world." I D'you think eo?" said a red-whiekcred man seated by the window ip a tone indicat- ing that he was of a different opinion. I am sure of it," said the other. I am aware that Scotland Yard is held up as a model for detective work, but Scotland Yard could leftrn any day from pome of out first- class detective Whit d'you know about it anyway?" a.sked the re'd-whiskered man. Well, our firm was robbed several years ngo of some securities—we're stockbrokers— and I was the member of the firm who took the matter in charge. I found a detective who traced the thief in no time and recovered all the property. He was siiiart fs chain lightning. He told me of many intricate cases he had followed, showing mo just how he had worked them np. He said they were blind as bats at Scotland Yard." I The man by the window gave a snort. Many Englishmen arc of the 8,tm-r opinion," the speaker persisted. .Scotland Yard WAS once a, home for remarkable detective work. It is now very much run down." "I know better," said the red-whiskered man, goaded by this disparagement. Scot- land Yard is the best in the world." How do you know?" I've soêen the way they work." Perhaps you can cite a case?" The man turned and looked out of the window, but he was evidently a loyal Briton and could not bear to hear any British institution attacked. "I'll do it," he said, turning from the scene without. One of my intimate friends, Lord Blandery, gave a party at his country seat, and I was among the guests. The morning we were all to leave, the family jewels were missing. There i,cre fifty guests about to depart, and one of them might be the thief. Lord Blandery didn't like to pro- pose a search, but I have a fancy for detective work and made up my mind to spot the thief. Lord Blandery acceded to my request to permit no one to leave the house until I gave the word, then told me all about the missing property, showing me a few things that were left. 'Here,' he said, 'among other things, is a mosaic sleeve button. The other has been stolen. I bought them in Rome several years ago. 'There is a clue,' I said, 'in case we fail to find the thief here. I'll take it to a man I know in Scotland Yard, and I'll lay you a hundred pounds he'll return your jewellery. He'll find its mate and by that means the thief.' "Well, every guest was searched, I leading the way. We took our leave, and I left the sleeve button at Scotland Yard. Soon after Lord Blandery'E valet found another place and left his lordship's services. One month later he was found dancing at a servants' ball, wearing a mosaic 6oarfpin. A detective from Scotland Yard who had kept an eye on him ever since he had left Lord Blandery, walked up to him and placed the missing sleeve button beside the pin. They were identical. The valet, not being able to make use of a single sleeve button, had had it turned into a. searfpin. Lord Blandery recovered a hundred thousand pound's worth I' of jewellery and paid me the wager, a.nd I secured the scarfpin from Scotland Yard as a. nlemen to." I don't believe that yarn," said the champion of the American detective. I'll show you the pin. I have it right here in my pocket." And. drawing out a small jewel box, he opened it and produced a mosaic pin of a very peculiar pattern. Tom Kourke," said the doubter, you arc the biggest liar in the world, as well as the biggest thief. You have fallen a. victim to your insane desira to overtop everybody else. For trying to down me you'll get twenty years of penal servitude when I get you back to London. I've been following you for six months. Here is the mate to your trans- formed sleeve button." ] He pulled up his coat sleeve, and there in I one of his cuffs was a mosaic button, the counterpart of the pin. r ,ho are you?" exclaimed the friend of Lord Blandery, paling. "I'm Peter Yorke, of Pinkertons. Scotland Yard got this sleeve button from Lord Mari- vale, not Lord Blandery, as you have named him. There was no valet in the ease, but one of Lord Marivale's guests was Guthrey Guy Clarke-Benson, who bad brought forged letters of introduction from Melbourne. Soon after the robbery he disappeared, and the forgery was discovered. It was believed that he had sailed for America. The remaining button was sent to our New York office, and I was put on the case. I knew you for Tom Rcurke, who had done ten years for bur- glary, but I was not sure that you had sailed among the bloods of England under the aris- tocratic name of Guthrey Guy Clarlrte- Benson." As he spoke he took from his pocket a. pair of handcuffs. The man at the window moved his hand when the detective whipped out a revolver. Then Tom Rourke, alias Guthrey Guy Clarke-Benson, received the bracelet's resignedly.
OLD & NEW TONGUE.
OLD & NEW TONGUE. By OLIVE PENNEWELL. His hobby was language. His pupils said of him, Professor Robertson fed on Greek roots when he was a boy," and "Professor Robert- eon would rather ask for a stone in a dead language than for bread in a living one." These are saindlea of the jokes that irreverent undergraduates head upon "the old pro- fessor," as they were wont to call him—he was thirty-eight--but it must not be undemtood that they did not love him. He was a simple- minded, ingenuous creature, who, like Uncle Toby, would "not hurt a fly, and, although he was intimate with no one, every one would have been glad to be intimate with him. Among the students in the Woman's college attached to the university was one Eunice Hiddlet-on, who attended all of Professor Robertson's lectures so long as she was an undergraduate, and when her class finished and went out into the world she remained behind to take a postgraduate course in Sanskrit. Her friends wondered at this, been,use Eunice was by no means scholarly and was less proficient in languages than in any other branch. Perhaps it was this that led her to secure Professor Robertson's services to tutor her during her college career and to take a postgraduate course under him in a class of which she was the only member. She seemed to be intensely interested in SanJ skrit. She would sit by him for hoars pouring over her lessons, asking innumerable questions and making now aifd then a comment which cans ed the profassor to S-igh at the betrayal of ignorance it involved. Three years of post- graduate study passed, and when Eunice A classmates returned from their first triennial meeting they found Eunice still plodding on, Professor Robertson's only pupil in the class in Sanskrit. "How does Miss Middleton get on?" asked one of the returned graduates of the pro- fessor. I presume she speaks the languages fluently by this time." The professor put his hand to his chin meditatively. Miss Middleton is an enthusiastic scholar," he said, but I fear her mind is better fitted for more practical branches. She does not. progress very rapidly." Have you taught her the verb with which. we began the study of Latin?" You mean To jo va. N o," said the professor innocently. "I>» think that would help her?" I am sure of it. Try it. You will convert, her into an apt scholar." Profiting by the advice, the professor returned to his pupil resolved to concentrate his efforts on the Sanskrit. verb to love." The new departure seemed only to make matters worse. Eunice got mixed up between Sanskrit and English for "I low," "You love," 'Ho loves. and after a week's drilling became discouraged, broke down and wept on the professor's shoulder. He sym- pathetically put his arm about her and said wo:n'?thing, he scarcely knew what, but when he started anew with tho lesson she could give him the Sanskrit and the English for "1 love." "You love." with astonishing case. Having spent three years in one language and got only so far as the verb "to love," Eunice concluded to graduate. Besides. she was engaged to marry Professor Robertson, and the faculty decided that to prolong the course under the circumstances might injure the good name of the college. The professor heaved a deep sigh that he must go on in hia studies without the sympathising co-student, but Eunice delighted him by saying that she would not by any means give up I-o interest- ing study, declaring that every day :.aha would devote, a certain time with him to Sansiirit. During their engagement the professor called upon h:-r three evenings in the week. the first hour of the visit being devoted to the lesson, the rest to illustrations upon "be verb "to love." The study was interrupted 'or a short time by marriage, but after their return from a bridal trip Eunice insisted upon its resumption, much to her husband's comfort. Living in the same house, it was not now necessary that they should study in the evenings. The professor's first lecture at the college was not given till eleven o'clock, eo that each morning from nine to ten they sat in the library pursuing a, language to which they were devoting the fourth year and of which Eunice had learned little more than the verb to love." Then came a little stranger to interrupt this rare devotion to study. Mrs. Robertson declared that so soon as the child's habits were properly formed she would re-join her husband at his books. Weeks went by, and yet she made no move to return. The pro- fessor waited patiently, believing that some impediment still existed which in time would disappear, but the hour from niue to ten was supremely slow. He soon lost some of his enthusiasm as a linguist. One morning, hear- ing sounds in his wife's bedroom above, he went upstairs to discover what was keeping her from a resumption of her lesson. Listen* ing at the door, he heard a splashing and am infantile voice: "BTLTL-abou-glum-agoo Then Mrs. Robertson: "-Now put its 'ittle footsy tootsy down IN the water and splash with its 'ittle finners." Professor Robertson sighed. He had dis- covered that a new language had supple- mented Sanskrit. Returning to his lonely study, he endeavoured to become interested in his books, but was surprised that he could see nothing on them but— 'l'l'1'l-a bou-glum-agoo

0 HOW SHE LOOKED. Wife: It was a nice party, you say, John. I'm 6orry I couldn't go, but am really glad that you enjoyed yourself. How was Mrs. Gadabout dressed? Husband: Well, she had on one of those dresses made of what-yon-call-it stuff, of a kind of a mixed shade, and trimmed with Y\];:1L-hi-Dam(,f;. I don't remember now whether it was cut low or not., or whether it had sleeves, but I know it had one or tho other. Her hair was done up in the style you see in pictures—you know what, I meaji. I don't know whether she had any orna- |ments or not, but I expect she had. That's about all. I think, that I noticed about her, but you can easily tell from that how she locked.
WAITING AT STATIONS.
WAITING AT STATIONS. This is from "Punch's" manual on "Deportment for Trains" — Your time being of importance, it is the duty and privilege of the railway company to see that your train is ready for you as eoon as you have purchased a ticket and inspected the bookstalls. If, therefore. owing to negli- gence on their part, you should be compelled to await its arrival, you are perfectly justi- fied in expressing disapprobation of such conduct. This may be fittingly exhibited by the d-emeanour (something between that of a Cabinet Minister at a crisis and an angry schoolmaster) with which you pace the plat- form. Any observations or inquiries which you address to the officials should be deli. vered as loudly as possible, so that those pas- sengers in the neighbcurànod may enjoy the pleasure of sympathy.
