Hut how—’’ "If yeh're Maitland, ’nd Anisty’s at <he St. Luke bnildin", tell that fool up there to drive! " Maitland had no need to lift the trap: the cabby bad already done that. "All right." the young man called. "It's Detective Hickey. Drive on!" The lash leaped out over the rooi’— cr-rack!—and the horse, presumably convinced that no speed other than a dead-run would ever again be de manded of it. tore frantically down the avenue, the hansom rocking like a top sail-schooner in a heavy gale. Maitland and the detective were bat tered against the side and back of the vehicle and slammer! against one an other with painful regularity. Under such circumstances speech was diffi cult: yet they managed to exchange a few sentences. ' i'eh gottuh gun?” "Anistv's—two good cartridges.” "Jus’ as well I'm along. I guess.” And again: "How'U yeh s’pose An isty got this cab?” "I don’t know—must’ve been in the house—I told cabby to wait—Anisty seems to have walked out right on your heels.” "Hell!” And a moment later: "What's this about a woman in the ease?" Maitland took swift thought oa her behalf. "Too long to go into now,” he parried the query. "You help me catch this scoundrel Anisty and I'll put in a good word for you with the deputy commissioner.” “Ah. yeh help me nab him,” grunted the detective, “ ‘nd I won't need no good word with nobody,” | The hansom swung into Broadway, going like a whirlwind; and picked lip an uniformed officer in front of the Flatiron building, who, shouting and using bis locust stridently, sprinted after them. A block further down an other fell into line; and he it was who panted at the step an instant: after the cab bat] lurched to a stop before the entrance to the St. Luke building. Hickey had rolled out before the policeman had a chance to bluster. “ 'Lo. Bergen,” he gre *>>d the man. ‘•Yeh know me—I'm Hickey, central office. Yeh're jus' in time. Anisty's in this buildin’—t was ten minutes ago. We want all the help we c'n get.’ By way of reply the officer stooped and drummed a loud alarm on the sidewalk with his night-stick. ■‘Say,” ho panted, rising, “you're a wonder, Hickey—if you get him.” “Uh-huh,” grunted the detective with a sidelong glance at Maitland. “Cm ’long.” The lobby of the building was quite deserted as they entered, the night wa; ehman invisible, the night elevator on its way to the roof—as was discov ered by consultation of the indicator dial above the gate. Hickey punched the night call bell savagely. "Me ’nd him,” he said, jerking the free thumb at Maitland, " 'll go up and hunt him out. Begin at th' top floor an’ work down. That’s th’ way, huh? '-\d," to the policeman, “yeh stay here an’ hold tip anybody ’t tries tuh leave tli’ bttildin’. There ain’t no other en trance, I s’pose, what?” “Basement door an’ ash lift’s round th’ corner,” responded the officer. “But that had ought tuh he locked, night.” "Weil, 'f anybody else comes along yeh put him there, anyway, for luck. What 'n hell's th’ matter with this elevator?” The detective settled a pudgy index finger on the push button and elicited a far, thin, shrill peal from the an nunciator above. But the indicator ar row remained as motionless as the car at the top of the shaft. Another sum mons gained no response, in likewise, and a third was also disregarded. Hickey stepped back, face black as a storm-cloud, summed up his opinion of the management of the building in one soul-blistering phrase, produced his bandana and used it vigorously, uttered a libel on the ancestry of the night-watchman and the likes of him, and turned to give profane welcome to the policeman who had noticed the cab at Twenty-third street and who now panted in, blown and perspiring. Much to h's disgust he found himself assigned to stand guard over the base ment exits, and waddled forth again into the street. Meanwhile the first officer to arrive upon the scene was taking his turn at agitating the button and shaking the gates; and with no more profit of his undertaking than Hickey. After a minute or two of it he acknowledged defeat with an oath, and turned away to browbeat the straggling vanguard of belated wayfarers—messenger boys, slatternly drabs, hackmen, loaf ers, and one or two plain citizen^ con spicuously out of their reputable grooves—who were drifting in at the entrance to line the lobby walls with blank, curious faces. Forerunners of that mysterious rabble which is ap parently precipitated out of the very air by any extraordinary happening in city streets, if allowed to remain they would in five minutes have waxed iu numbers to the proportions of an un manageable mob; and the policeman, . knowing this set. about dispersing them with perhaps greater discretion than consideration. They wavered and fell back, grum bling discontentedly; and Maitland, liis anxiety temporarily distracted by the noise they made, looked round to find his erstwhile cabby at his elbow. Of whom the sight was inspiration. Ever thoughtful, never unmindful of her whose influence held him in this coil, he laid an arresting hand on the man's sleeve. ‘ You've got your cab—?” ‘ Yissir, right houtside." “Drive round the corner, away from tilt! crowd, and wait for me. If she— the young lady—conies without me, drive her anywhere she tells you and come to my rooms to morrow morning for your pay.” ‘Thankee, sir.” Maitland turned back, to find the situation round the elevator shaft in statu quo. Nothing had happened, save that Hickey's rage and vexation had increased mightily. “But wily don't you go up after him?” “How 'n blazes can I?" exploded the detective. “He’s got th’ night car. 'F 1 takes the stairs, he comes down by th' shaft, ’nd bow’m I tub trust this here mutt?” He indicated liis associ ate hut humbler custodian of the peaca with a disgusted gesture. “Perhaps one cf the other cars will run—” Maitland suggested. “Ah, they're all dead ones." Hickey disagreed with disdain as the young man moved down the row of gates, try ing one after another. “Yeh're only wastin’—” He broke off with a snort as Mait land, somewhat to his own surprise, managing to move the gate of the third shaft from the n'- hr. elevator stepped into the darkened car and groped for the controller. Present!' his fingers encountered it, and ht moved it. cautiously to one side. A vicious blue spark leaped hissing from the controller-box and the cas bounded up a dozen feet, and w as only restrained from its ambition to sea. skywards by an instantaneous releas of the lever. fly discreet manipulation Maitland worked the car down to ti:o street floor again, and Hickey, with a gram that might be interpreted as an apol ogy for his incredulity, jumped in. “Let ’er rip!” he cried, exultantly "Fan them folks out intuh th’ street Bergen, 'nd watch cw-ut!” Maitland was pressing the lever slowly wide of its caU h, and the lighted lobby dropped out of sight while the detective was still shouting admonitions to the police below. Grad ually gaining momentum the car began to shoot smoothly up into the black ness, safety chains clanking beneath the floor. Hickey fumbled for the electric light switch but, finding it, im mediately shut tlie glare off again and left the ear in darkness. “Safer,” he explained, sententious. “Anisty ’ll shoot, 'nd they says he shoots straight.” Floor after floor in ghostly strata slipped silently down before their eyes. Half-way to the top, approxi mately, Hickey’s voice rang sharply in the volunteer operator's ear. “Stop ’er! Hold ’er steady. T'other’s cornin’ down.” Maitland obeyed, managing the car with greater ease and less jerkily as he began to understand the principle of the lever. The cage paused in the black shaft, and he looked upward. Down the third shaft over, the other cage was dropping like a plummet, a block of golden light walled in by black filigree-work and bisected verti cally by the black line of the guide rail. "Stop that there car!’’ Hickey’s stentorian command had no effect: the block of light continued to fail with unabated speed. The detective wasted no more breath. As the other car swept past, Maitland was shocked by a report and flash beside him. Hickey was using his revolver. The detonation was answered by a cry, a scream of pain, from the lighted cage. It paused on the instant, like -1-— a bird stricken a wing, some four floors btiow, but at once resumed its downward swoop. "Down, down! After ’em!" Hickey bellowed. "I dropped one, by God! T'other can't—” "How many in the car?” interrupted Maitland, opening the lever with a firm and careful hand. 'Only two, same's us. I hit th’ felier what was runnin’ it—” “Steady!” cautioned Maitland, de creasing the speed, as the car ap proached the lower floor. Tht other had beaten them down; but its arrival'at the street level was greeted by a short chorua of mad yells, a brief fusiiiade of shots—perhaps five in ail—and the clang of the gate. Then, like a ball rebounding, the cage swung upwards again, hurtling at full speed. Evidently Anisty had been received in force which he had not bargained for. Maitland instinctively reversed the lever and sent his own car upward again, slowly, waiting for the other to overtake it. Peering down through the iron lattice-work he could indis tinctly observe the growing cube of light, with a dark shape lying huddled iti one corner of the floor. A second figure, rapidly taking shape as Anisty’s, stood by tiie controller, braced against the side of the car, one hand on the 'ever, ihe other poising a shining thing, the flesh-colored oval of his face turned upwards in a supposititious at tempt to discern the location of the dark ear. Hickey, by firing prematurely, lent him adventitious aid. The criminal re plied with spirit, aiming at the flash, his bullet spattering against the back v ail of the shaft. Kiel.ay's next bullet rang with a bell-like note against the metal-work, Anisty’s presumably went ■vide—though Maitland could have sworn he felt the cold kiss of its breath upon his cheek. And the lighted ago roc la d past and up. Maitland needed no admonition to pursue; his bleed was up, his heart •itigiug with the lust of the man-hunt. Yet Anisty was rapidly leaving them, his car soaring at an appalling pace. Towards the top he evidently made some attempt to sic-' up, but. either he was ignorant ef the management of the lever, or else the thing had got beyond control. The cage rammed the buffers with a crash that echoed through the sounding halls like a peal of thunder-claps; it was instantane ously plunged into darkness. There followed a splintering and rending sound, and Maitland, heart in mouth, could make out dimly a dark, falling shadow in the further shaft. Yet ere it had descended a score of feet the safety-clutch acted and, with a third tremendous jar, shaking the building, the car halted. Hickey and Maitland were then some five floors below. "Stop ’er at. 19,” or dered the detective. There was a lilt of exultancy in his voice. "We got him now, all right, ail right. He’ll try to get down by—There!” Overhead the crash of a gate forced oped was followed by a scurry of footsteps over the tiling. “Stop 'er and we’ll head him off. So now—eceasy!” Maitland shut off the power as the car reached the nineteenth floor. Hickey opened the gate and jumped out. "Shut that,” he commanded, sharply, as Maitland followed him, “in case he gets past us.” He paused a moment in thought, heavy head on bull-neck drooping for ward as he stared toward the rear cf the building. He was fearless and re sourceful, for all liis many deficiencies. Maitland found time, quaintly enough, to regard him with detached curiosity, a lare animal, illustrating ail that was best and worst in his order. Endowed with exceptional courage, his ad dress in emergencies seemed alto gether admirable. “Yeh guard them stairs,” he decided, suddenly. “I'll run through this hall, ’na see what’s doing. Don't hesitate to sheet if he tries to jump yeh.” And was gone, clumping briskly duwn the corridor to the rear-. (TO HE CONTINUED.) CONFESSION OF ONE HUSBAND And How He Found His Niche in the World. “Where youth is coupled with intel ligence illusions pass rapidly away. Eariy in my married life it dawned on me that 1 was going to be at home for a long stay. I realized that my tenure in business, and even my place in my father’s family, were insignifi cant in their importance when com pared with this new relation I had es tablished. I saw that it was the greatest contract I had ever signed. I was also becoming conscious of my relative insignificance in the general scheme of things. It appeared less likely that I should be called away io dig the Panama canal, and more and more probable that I should continue in the daily performance in incon spicuous work. “Out of all this there came to my wife and me the realization that the greatest chance within our reach lay right there in our two-by-four house. If the world was unappreciative of our unparalleled talents, the world could go hang. We'd use them our selves. ■'And so we set out to surmount all difficulties. We haven't done that yet, but we have made a start. I have cultivated my wife's relatives until I have come to the conclusion that they are practically as desirable as my own. My wife has pursued the same attitude toward my relatives to the point where she thinks more fa vorably of some of them than I do myself. “We never quarrel in the sense that we harbor and nourish feelings of hate. Sometimes we talk loud, but we keep on talking until our voices run down and become so amiable that it is both safe and restful to break off. I can listen to the reading of choice poetry, and my wife can pre tend that she enjoys the dog show. I can sit through the play ‘Hamlet,’ even keeping my seat while that luna tic Ophelia is on the stage. This is my great achievement, but it is more than matched by my wife, who can sit with her back to the wail and ap pear to he calm while I read about Edgar Allan Poe's story of how the rats bothered that fellow in jail.”— American Magazine. Marriage of Widows in India. We are glad to note the number of widow marriages increasing every year. Following on the heels of one in high life in Calcutta, there have been lately three such marriages in different parts of the country. This is a noteworthy record, which should cause the social reformer to take heart for the ultimate success of his work. The agitation that has been kept up for years by the social conference has been successful, if only in im pressing all classes of the Hindu com munity with the necessity of widow marriage. It is, however, well known that those who still take exception to it and offer sentimental objections have no widowed daughters at home, and consequently have no means to judge their sad condition.—Indian Mirror. The Hard-Hit Author. “Our town poet had been reading about the old-time authors getting in spiration out of garrets, where they did most of their writing, so he went to work and rented the only genuine garret in town, but in his case the scheme didn't work.” “Nothing happened,, eh?” “Oh, yes—something happened all right. Whilst he was tryin’ to look the ceilin' out of countenance, three yards of plasterin’ broke loose and knocked his head sideways! And now he’s even afraid to compose in the open air, for fear some of these bal loon fellers will pelt him with sand bags!” PAINT FAULTS. It is a common occurrence nowa days to hear a man remark with dis gust: "It is impossible to have good painting done these days; <ther the paint is not good or there are no good painters.” This, however, is not true. There is good paint, and there are good painters. But the question is, bringing them together. One cannot expect a satisfactory painting job without pure white lead. There is a way to make sure you are j getting pure white lead without test ing it. See that the keg bears Na tional Lead Company's famous Dutch Boy Painter trademark, whicij is a positive guarantee of purity. However, anyone can test white lead.

"Filthy Lucre.’’ The expression “filthy lucre” is of Biblical origin, and is to be found in the third chapter of the first book of Timothy, where the qualifications nec essary for the oluce of a bishop are thus set forth: “This is a true saying. If a man desireth the oi fic-e of bishop, he desireth a good work. A bishop must then be blame less, the husbahd of one wife, vigilant sober, of good behavior, given to hos pitality, apt to teach; not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous.” Laundry work at home would bn much more satisfactory if the right Starch were used. In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually neces sary to use so much starch that th" beauty and fineness of the fabric is hidden behind a paste of vary; thickness, which not only destroys the appearance, but also affects the wear ing quality of the goods. This trou ble can be entirely overcome by is ;ng Defiance Starch, as it can be applied much more thinly because of its great or strength than other makes. .
