' 'People ' who commit a crlmo and try tc
WscnpQ detection , or those \vho attempt tc
disappear for any reaocm , uminlly make dis
covery e.isy by dodging and hiding too much , "
said n well known New York Jetcctlvo while
discussing a recent case of mysterloiu dip
appearance with a correspondent of the QloLo-
Democrat.
"Severn ! years ago I was convinced l > y the
Hurtling developments In the Stallworth my * .
tcry that It Is comparatively an easy matter
for a man fahly well known to lead a double
life , change hlj name mid Identity , or dlsip-
licar nilocether In a big city like Now York ,
In fact , It frequently happens that a man
who lias lived a dual life for years U dis
covered and exposed hy accident.
"hut the story of the Stnllworth myctery
ttlll trhow what a clever man call accomplish
In the way of mystifying his friends and
the public.
"I wai detailed to Investigate a robbery that
had occurred In a private house uptown.
The bed room of the lady of the house ,
which was B'.tualed at the rear of the second
end floor , had been entered mid a quantity
of valuable jewels stolen. The family was
away at the time , and the burglar had gained
entrance through the window of tlio room ,
showing that a ladder had been used. The
window had been fattened with a catch on
the Inside. Thu burglar broke u pans of
gins// put his hand through and unfastened
this catch RO the window could be easily
raised. A light ladder ten feet long 1 saw
would have enabled the burglar to reach the
window from the ground.
"The burglar evidently knew just where
to niul ths jewels , for the IIOUM showtd no
evidence of having been dlfituibed. None
of the servants knew where the jewels were
kept , to they were not suspected. It was
quite a piuzllng case , and after several
examinations of the house I cuncludd that
the burglar would have to bo traced through
the pawnshops.
"I had Just left the scene of the robbery
nfter my third vIMt , and was standing on
a nearby street corner , when a well-dressed
man of middle age came up and spoke to me
pleasantly. 1 did not recognize him , and
was about to turn away when he remarked
that the robbery was qulto a , mysterious
affair.
"What do you know about It ? " I asked ,
not liking his Impertinence.
"Very little , " he replied pleasantly. "I live
near by , and read of It In the newspapers.
I recognized , you as a Central office man ,
laving keen you about the courts. "
"As the man spoke ho handed me his card ,
which re-id :
EDGAR STALtAVOnTH ,
Attorney at Law.
"I had never heard of the man , but some
how lie Interested me. First of all ho had
what I call double eyes. That Is , there was
an expression In his eyes that Is hard to
vUcscrlbc , but when looking straight at me
he teemed to have a second pair of optics
that looked through and beyond me In a
myrterlous way. lie talked further of the ,
robbery , and remarked that men who com
mitted a crime , no matter how shrewd and
cautious , almost Invariably left some tangible
clew behind them. I told him the man who
committed this robbery had not done so.
"On that proposition wo differed , and he
proposed that I take him to the house with
THO and let him look at the room.
" * I am something of on amateur detec
tive , ' ho said , . In explanation of his request.
Then he went on to tell me that he had
done much detective work as a part of his
law but'InesB , and was quite an enthusiast on
theories of crime and methods of criminals.
By this time I had classed the fellow as a
harmless crank , but ho was a good talker
and Interested mo very much.
"The upshot of It all was that I took him
back to tti2 house find showed him the room
where the robbery occurred. He first looked
nt ths bureau drawer that had been broken
open. That finished , ho I'book his head and
went over to the window through which the
burglar had entered. I was watching him
closely , and soon after he began to examine
the -window I saw him smile In a satisfied
way.
' ' " 'Qnv- point Is settled,1 he suddenly ex
claimed.
11 'What Is that ? ' I asked.
" 'The robbery was committed by a gla-
llcr. '
" 'How do you know ? '
" 'HecauM he did not break the glass.
He uiwl a putty knife to remove the pane
and then dropped the glass to the ground.
Only a glazier would have opened the win-
.dow , ln .this way. '
"I had to confess that all of the broken
Klas was found In the yard ; none In tin
room.
" 'Here Is another point ; a better clew , per
haps. The putty knife used had a gap In
the blade near the point. Here you can see
wliero the putty was cut , and at Intervals you
will observe a rough spot , Indicating the gap
In the knife blade. '
"I looked for myself and saw that ho was
right.
" 'Now , this robbery was committed by
Eomo'worRman who did a job of work In the
house at ono time or another , and by acci
dent or design learned where these Jowcle
were kept. He was accustomed to standing
on ft ladder at his work. So he used a lad
der and came In through the window. It was
easier for him than breaking locks on doors.
He opened the window as a man In his trade
would open It , and went to the right place
to find what he was after. '
"I felt somewhat chagrined , but proceeded
to Inquire If a glazier had been at work In
the house recently. I was told that one had
put In some new glass in the wlndowu of the
room where the robbery occurred some three
montliH before.-
" 'Thst'a our man , ' said Stallworth , 'but I
'do not understand why ho waited so long. '
"I learned the immo of the contractor who
hid the job , and through him got the name
of his employe who did the work. Wo went
to the room of the fellow while ho was out ,
searched It and found the stolen jewels. The
fellow was arrested later.
"My amateur assistant did not appear elated
over our success , and allowed me to take all
the credit of the capture.
" 'Clumsy fool , all of them are , ' was his
only remark when ho found that his theory
wan UIB right one.
"That was the way I made the acquaint
ance of Kdgar Stallworth , I was Interested
In the man from the start , and he took quite
a fancy to me. He probably would not have
ilr.no so If h ? had known the real reason for
my Interest In him , From the first I had a
ccnvlctlon that the man was an Interesting
living mystery , and that some day I would
learn his secret. I did not exactly suspect
him of being a criminal , but I believed
that he would sooner or later develop a mania
for mysterious crime that would cause him to
try his own hand at puzzling the police and
the public.
"I found that ho had a fair law practice
and enjoyed an excellent reputation among
members of the profession. Hut of his pri
vate life I learned nothing. I had neither
time , reason nor Inclination to shadow him
and learn his habits , but I made some In
quiries and could find no ono who ever knew
where he lived. Only his office address \vau
In the directory.
" \Ve remaln l friends for several years ,
and he frequently assisted me In my work
at times with great success. He possen > ed
In a high degree a faculty for solving the
actions of criminals and getting at the secret
of apparent mysteries. Ho was what we
would call In our profession a theoretical de
tective , and his theories were usually sound
ones. liut while we met often , worked to
gether on many caiei and discussed his the
ories for hours at a time , the man himself
retrained as great a mystery to me as ever.
Ho never spoke of himself or his own af
fairs , and there was something In the man
ner of the fellow that forbade Impertinent
questions.
"I had bfcn very busy for two or three
mouth * on inull cases , and had not ieea
SlMlworth during that time , when I read li
ths newspapers one morning of the dlap
pearaiico and supposed tulcldo from a Fa I
Hlvcr boat of ono JamM Stalling * , a tellrci
mcrchan' . Ths nun had purchased a tlckc' '
for Hasten and gone aboard the boat In New
York. Friends and mcmbfrs of his famllj
weio fit the pier to sco him off. He
paired to his rtnle rcom Immediately aflci
dinner , nnd wiis not Men again until attci
midnight , when two ct the deck hands saw
him Unoklng by the outer rail oft.
"When the boat arrived at Tall Ulver he
win not on board , end It was supposed thai
he had fallen or Jumped overboard. Th (
case wnn followed up closely by the rsport-
e.-ii , and the Milclile theory was strongly
supported by the- facts they discovered. The
miming man was a very reticent , mysterious
fellow , and fven his wife and daughter , hit
only family , knew absolutely nothing of hit
business affairs. Supposed to be In good clr-
uumptances , It was found that all he left
his family was an Insurance policy for a
lt > rge Amount , Thla seemed to confirm the
suicide theory , and ns seen as the widow ap
plied for payment of the Insurance the com
panies started an Investigation.
"Ono of the first things they learned was
that the man had spent most of his tltnc
away from homo for the past flvo years.
Even his wife never knew where he was
when ho was absent , and she did not know
the character of his business. The very few
friends and acquaintances of the missing
man who could bo found , knew nothing of
his business affairs. They knew him simply
as a retired merchant , 11 * belonged to no
cltilw or lodges , and had no Intimate friends.
"Tho man was gone , and there was no
positive proof of suicide , but the company
contested payment of the Insurance policy
In the hope that something In their favor
might be discovered. That was the way the
matter stood , when I one day ran across my
friend Stallworth. Almost his first question
was to ask what I thought of the disappear
ance of the man from the Fall Hirer boat.
"I told him that I had paid little attention
to the matter.
"Why , that Is a wonderful case , " he ex
claimed , with more animation than usual ,
"I have been itudylng that very closely.
It Is a splendid mystery ; no evidence at all
of bungling , so far. The Insurance company
will have to p > ty the money unless It can
produce the man alive.
"I told him that I fall'd to see anything
rental kiiblo In the case , as n.cn had disap
peared In that way before , some committing
suicide , perhaps , others falling overboard by
accident , and still others having escaped
from the boat without detection.
"Hut In the latter 'case they were always
found , " he rcnll d.
"Well , this man will bo found If alive , " I
told him.
" 'Never ! ' Stallworth exclaimed with em
phasis. 'This man planned too well. All
the proof that he went on the boat , was seen
late at night , and did not leave the vessel
when she landed was well supplied. The
man has vanished. The mystery Is com
plete I *
"The manner of the man surprised me. I
had never before seen him so emphatic , but
concluded that It WHS due to the fact that
this affair seemed to comeup to his Idea
of a complete and perfect mystery.
"A month passed before I saw Stallworth
again. One day I was assigned to a case of
mysterious disappearance , and I turned to
him for assistance , knowing that he would
thoroughly enjoy the work.
"A woman from Drooklyn came to head
quarters and reported the disappearance of
her husband.Ho had been gone for three
months , and she had been unable to find
any trace of him with the aid of private
detectives. She did not want the matter
made public , but wanted the police to aid
her In the search as best they could.
"Tho story told by the- woman was so re
markable that wo first Investigated to find If
It was true. She was a woman past CO , and
was a widow flvo years before , when she met
a man who gave the name of Edward James.
He represented himself as a lawyer In prac
tice In this city , but of his family or his
past Malory the woman knew nothing. She
did not know his address or the names of
any of , , his friends. As she confessed her
self , "the man exercised poniB * > trange.jln-
fluenco over her , and she. accepted all his
statements without question.
"They were married within two months
of their first meeting , and had lived very hap
pily together , although her husband was
even more of a mystery after marriage than
before.
"Ho would frequently remain away from
home for days at a time , telling Ills \vifo that
he was absent on business , but never where
ho way. He never went out with her , not
even for a walk In the street , telling her
that he cared for no society except her own.
"The woman was quite wealthy when she
married Jones , and she gave him money
whenever he asked for It. He had Induced
her to give him large sums to Invest , as he
said , and told her afterward that the money
had been lost in bad investments.
"Sho accepted all he said and did without
question , and the result was that he got
possession of all her money. I learned that
on the day he left home she had given him
$10,000 In cash , which ho' said he wanted for
a safe and sure speculation. With this money
ho came over to the city , and that was the
last she had seen or heard of him.
"I told the wbmnn frankly that I thought
she had been deceived and rohbsd by a
clever swindler , and that uho would never
see the man again. Sha would not believe
this , and I promlsd to do what I could to
nnd him. I had the woman give me an ac
curate description of the man , and I was
startled by the llkenesy to my friend Stall-
worth , although , according to her account ,
her husband was a younger man by ten
years than the amateur detective.
"Thero was little chance of finding any
trocs of the fellow , I thought , but next day
I called on Stallworth and gave him an out
line of the case , omitting the name.
" 'Splendid ! Splendid ! ' he exclaimed , rub
bing his hands In glee when I had finished.
'Very clever fellow , evidently , but If he has
bungled the job anywhere we will find him !
What Is his name ? '
" 'She knew him by the name of Edward
James , ' I replied elowly , looking Stallworth
straight In the eyes.
" 'James , James. Edward James ! Seems
to me I have heard tlu name somewhere , '
he replied , never swerving In his gaza nor
showing the slightest trace of surprise.
"Up to that moment I had a theory. I
need not say what It was , but the manner of
my friend convinced mo that I way wrong.
The double eyes of the man were looking
straight Into mine , ono pair of them , while
the others seemed to look Into space beyond
mo without a quaver. I thought at the
time that If my theory were right and the
man was acting , Us was the greatest actor
living.
"My vague suspicion that this man Stall-
worth would ono day commit n crime of some
mysterious character and never left me up to
that day , but his manner at the time I told
him of the disappearance of Edward James
came very near to convincing me that I had
; lone him a great wrong.
"Wo talked over the case for some time
ind ho suggested various lines of Inquiry.
One of his suggestions was that a man of
the character inscribed would likely specu
late in Wall strojt In a small way and that
there we might find some trace of him.
"He. closed his desk and sstd that he
would go with me to some brokers with
whom he wag acquainted And see If we coul
strike the trail of the missing man. It nat
cold winter day and the streets were covere
with Ice. We were crossing Droadway dlrectl
In front ( fa truck when Stallworth illppei
and fell. Utfore the driver of the trucl
could pull up his horses they were upon th
prostrate man and heavy Iron-shod hoe
struck him In the head , breaking his skull.
"I paw at once that the man was fatall' '
Injured. He was still conscious , however , oni
while waiting for an ambulance I asked hln
for th ? address of his family.
" 'I have none , ' he answered slowly , whll
a grim smile played over his pale face.
" 'Is there anything I can do for you an ;
messnge I can deliver ? ' I asked.
"Ho shook his head and was silent for i
moment. Suddenly he looked at me will
that strange expression , like twd pair o
eyes In one , and said : 'This last case of your
Is a good one. I don't believe you will fln <
the man you are looking for. Sorry I canno
work with you on the case. There may bo i
blunder somewhere , but I think not , It seem
to he a complete mystery. '
"Ily this time the ambulance had arrived
and a * Stallworth : lifted Into It he fainted
Ho did not revive , and died coon after reach
Ing the hospital.
"It look me several hours to make up m ;
mind to It , but finally I went to Ilrooklyi
and brought over the woman whose htisbam
was missing. I took her to the hospital nnt
asked her to look at the face of the dead man
At sight of It she foil sobbing by the bed ]
and moaned , 'My husband , my poor husband !
"My suspicion was verified at last , but ;
was almost sorry that It was to. The follow
had been 10 very clever In his work It scorned
a pity to expose him now- that ho was dead
Uut the "ono point settled , another theorj
formed Itself In my mind , and I decided It
act upon It ,
"I hunted up the wlfo and daughter of th (
man who had been lost from the Fall lllvei
boat and brought them to FCC the body ol
Stnllworth. At sight of the face that could nc
longer conceal a mys-tery both women fainted
away. They had recognized husband anil
father , nnd the Stallworth mystery was re
vealed. "

Senator John Ste'man In his "Recollections"
relates his first meeting with Daniel Webster
as follows :
In New York I received from a relative a
etter of Introduction to Benjamin II. Curt ! ? ,
then an eminent lawyer , and latterly a more
eminent Justice of the supreme court. When
I presented my letter I was received very
clmlly , and after a brief conversation he said
ic was able to do me a favor ; tint he had a
Jcket to a grand banqaet to be attended by
the leading men of Boston at Plymouth HorU ,
on the anniversary of the landtag of the Pil
grim Fathers , and that Daniel Webster would
ireslde. I heartily thanked him , and on the
icxt day , promptly on time , I entered the
train at Boston for Plymouth.
When I arrived at the hotel , which was also
a station houna of the railway , I did not know
3 single person In the great aswmblagc. In
lue tlms wecro ushered into tlio dining
hall where the banquet was tjpvead. " Ttert
was no mistaking Webster. Hia : l.i the
center of a crors table , with the llrttls ! ; min
ster on his right hand and Jeremiah Mason
on his left.
At the other end of the 'oam sa : Abbott
Lawre'nce and other distinguish icd men. T'.e
residue of the guests , merctia-Ks , poets and
orators of Massachusetts , filled every seat at
the table. I sat some way down on the si'Je ,
and Introduced mjself to my neighbors nn the
right and loft , but my eye was on Webctcr ,
from whom I .expected eych lofty sloqueaca
as ho alone could utter. ' " "
. Much to my surprise- when theVtltjie came
tor the oratory to commence , Mr. Lawrence
acted as toastmai'ter. Wq had utorlas , i-xings ,
poetry and oratory , generally good and appro
priate , but not from Webster. Ami to the
evening waned. Webster haJ b en talking
freely with thoss about him. He .IisphyeJ
none of the loftiness associated v.lth * lily
name. He drank fresly. That was manifest
to every one.
His favorite bottle was one labeled "Bran
dy. " We heard rf It as belni ; "more than
100 years old. " It dl-1 nnt travel down to
us. Webslcr was plalnl'iHiimus At this
time the conductor appeared at a bide door
and announced that 'u fiftajn ir.inuies .the
cars wouM start for Mmon. Then Webster
arose with difficulty he restej his handi-
firmly on the table , ar.l with nn" effort assumed -
sumed an erect posltlo i. Every voles was
hushed.
He said that in fifteen minutes we would
separate , never more to meet again , and then ,
with glowing forca and eloqusnc2 , he con
trasted the brevity and vanity of human 'life
with the Immortality "ot the'evento they wre
celebrating , which century after century would
bs celebrated by your children and your clill-
dren'o children to the latest generation.
I cannot recall the words of his short but
eloquent speech , but it made an Impress on
my mind. If his body was affected by the
liquor , his head was clear and his utterance
perfect , I met Mr. Webster afterward on the
cars and in Washington. I admired him for
his gro t Intellectual qualities , but I do not
wonder that the people of the United States
did not clioosa him for president.

A New View of Life.
It is surprising how often the
troubles of this life spring from in 4i
digestion. And more surprising
how few people know it , You say ,
'I'm blue " " head feels "
