v? After the anarchists had bombard ed the policemen of Chicago in 1886, MUiken Belisarius, one of the bomb throwers, disappeared as completely as did Snabel, another bomb-thrower on that memorable occasion. For fifteen years Mrs. Lulu Cowen looked with more than suspicion upon the Iron-bound trunk that Belisarius left in her boarding-house at the time of his mysterious vanishment. It Is a real compliment to say of her that she took no credit to herself for keep ing this great secret so long to her poor lone self. Mrs. Lulu Cowen, though a women of no very silvery speech and though really poverty stricken in a supply of the mellifluous •words of old Nestor, had that singular turn of mind, it is painful to confess, that led her straight into the mysteries of old-fashioned spiritualism. That trunk! She would have given her eyes to know what it contained. .And—she found out after a while, af ter the wasting of much good thought and precious time for long, long years over the grave problem. At length—at length she dreamed about it. She said a spirit told her in her dreams. Of course she believed a ghostly familiar did reveal to her the great secret. Indeed, over that closet into which the dusty old trunk had long been thrust, a guardian spirit had hovered and protected both the trunk and Jlrs. Cowen from harm. After her first dream she could rest contented no longer. The trunk lay 'upon her pure soul like a cotton bis cuit in a booby's stomach or an un spent dollar in a poor man's pocket. It grew heavy-heavier—lead. Then a second time the familiar denizen of the land of good ghosts came to her in a dream, and revealed the awful contents of that ghastly iron-bound old trunk—dynamite bombs, other 'deadly instruments of destruction, and 'anarchistic plots and secret corres pondence with Roosa and some Mafia and Camorra. She dreamed that the spirit induced her to arise from her midnight couch, light a small lamp and go with it secretly to the closet and on her bended knees open the mysterious trunk and behold its con tents with her own natural orbs. Then the good widow returned to her bed and slept peacefully till daylight, guarded by the ever-watchful spirit. This spirit guardian prompted her to "tell it—tell it," but she shrank from the consequences of publicity. She feared something would happen to her if she told it.' But she had no peace day nor night. The spirit said very boldly, "Get that trunk out of the house." Finally she told the weightly secret to "Pancake Bill" Baker—so they all called him. Since the death of his wife a year ago before this event, he was one of her boarders, and one whom she trusted most. "Pancake Bill" had been a hard drinker at one to Which "he jfi Chain of Circumstances BY FRANK. A. MEYERS. Instruction complete. Charges Moderate. Address, A, M. Labor World Office.

He was a fine workman. And withal he was an inveterate old jokei% and loved to "get off" a joke on another better than he loved his long-ustU, strong old pipe—and you know how a slave to the weed likes his rancid old pipe. We catch some glimpse of this passion for tobacco in Barrie'a "My Lady Nicotine." And the good natured fellow never denied a Jok§ told on himself—could not, we suspect* So the night succeeding her disoov ery of what the trunk held, when "Pancake Bill" had returned from work, Mrs. Lulu Cowen revealed to him all about the mysterious trunk. Though he ordinarily could face the devil without a blush, yet in very truth he was not a little surprised to# hear her tale of woe. Telling him was the same as putting It in the papers, for he was the special "pard" of a. boon quld-nuno of the press. This publicity did more than excite a passing wonder in- the minds of the regular readers of the daily papers, for it stirred up the local anarchists. One of their most politic stripe was sent to Mi's. Cowen to learn all he could about the business. He was so skillful In worming out of her all the information to be had, that she never once suspected the real character of the man. He deftly pretended to be seeking a boarding place, but when he discovered that anarchists were some times members of her household, though unwittingly fed by her gener ous hand, he disclosed so much fear of them that she could not prevail on him to roirMn. He gave his name as Dugal O'Connor. When Dugal O'Connor reported all that he had heard to the frequenters of Grief's Hall, they forthwith "reso luted" that "great injury had been done them that their rights had been profanely violated! that their spirit of independence had been grossly out raged and concluded by declaring that those death-dealing instruments should never have been disclosed to outsiders, much less put in the pluto cratic papers and a perfect furor worked up over it. They decided to hush up the matter for the present, and even withhold it from the Arbeiter Zeltung. A nice bit of spicy, peppery literary anathematization of the police in general was brought forth full vigored, like Athene from the brain of Zeus. Turning away from Greif's Hall, Dugal O'Connor—this was no more his real name than it is yours or mine, kind reader—walked directly^, to the nearest teelgraph office, put a piece of money on a brief telegram arranged in a mysterious cipher, and walked away without a word. It went to Dallas, Texas, and without delay Cave Narwhal dropped his job as switchman and vanished as a spirit in thin air.

But the Chicago jjollce and Inspector utterly failed to decipher it, though they addled their brains, long over it. To them It was as silent as an etaoient brick, though written all over, dug up at Mosul, or Troy, or Thebes. And they never heard before of Cave Norwhal. They could not un derstand what connection a myster ious Chicagoan could have with a man at Dallas. 'After that cipher tele gram no one ever saw Cave Norwhal again. He had vanished as complete ly as smoke. Now it was imperative that an ow ner of that trunk be found, in order to satisfy the demands of the law, or rather the sa^e the "reps" of the as tute policemen. Of course they can find a victim—that is easy enough. So they took Arthur Hamilton, baaing their seizure of him on the ground that he had reoeived a White-Caps notice—the very reason why he should have been protected rather than ar rested. Not long before Arthur had gone from St. Louis to Chicago in aearoh of work. He was a stranger, and therefore the more reason to the po lice for "exeouting the law on .him," He knew but few in this modern Babel. Yet he had seoured a position In the switch-yards, the plaoe Belisarius had deserted when his trunk was discover ed. The strongest ill-wind that blew Arthur no good was the one that he was a boarder and lodger at Mrs. Lulu Cowens, where the devil-tainted trunk had been found. Therefore he was accused of owning It, and also of changing his name. Without any evidence for their allegation they de clared he was no other than Belisar ins, the much wanted culprit. Some mysterious hand had put a White Cap notice the day before his arrest where he could not fail to re ceive it. It conveyed the mighty threat that if he switched any more cars in the yards he would be roped forthwith. He paid no attention to It —till a policeman "roped him in." He had just thrown a switch for one of the wheezy old engines, which "Pancake Bill" avowed was a "regular coughing old cow." The cab wag loose "from her constant jig-jigging," and she was a "Jim Dandy lnjine," as "Pancake Bill" said in his "fool way." Arthur had but casually observed a bluecoat, with a pretty up-and-down row of brass buttons in front, ad vancing toward him. He gave this circumstances no thought, as he was entirely innocent of any crime, mis deamnor, or disorder. "Exercising the right of an Amer ican I demand to know the reason for my arrest," asserted Arthur proudly, standing fully erect." "None of that blasted nonsence now, my dead-to-rights bloke, or I'll crack you over the nub." It was In vain that Arthur appealed to this rowdy-level man of the billy, whose life was a sort of compromise or reciprocity with the criminal ele ment of society, and asked him for a reason for his "pinching." He was in solently marched away to the hold over. How strangely our lives sometimes seem- to hinge on a mere chance cir cumstance. Now as it happened In Arthur's case, Pearl Harcburt, Grace Hall and Nona Dunlap, three girls claiming a sacred friendship for each other, pedaled by on their wheels, gaily laughing and jestigg, enjoying the pleasant afternoon outing almost like birds set free. Nona Dunlap, a St. Louis girl, was making a prolong ed visit to her cousins Pearl Harcourt and Grace Hall. She was a jolly good girl, full of life and love and freedom, a type of health and beauty, and a picture of perfect girlhood. She had just related some campaign farcial story about McKinley and Bryan, and provoked the other two girls to a scream of mirth. She could do strange things some times, and this was one of the times when she almost alarmed the two girls. She sprang suddenly from her wheel, and running up to a policeman asked him what he meant by leading Arthur Hamilton off that way. He managed to explain partially to "the lady," but "the lady" declared it was false—"false as perjured Clarence"— for she had known Arthur always and he could not be an anarchist. Besides, she said, he had not lived in Chicago till the last month or two, and could not have been here In 1886. Her zeal moved the man with the billy to say: "Now, never mind, young lady. You go on and tend- to your own business, ur I'll nab you too as one of 'em in female sex clothes." She hastily retorted: "A man be ing once asked what was the difference between a guerilla and a missionary said he thought they were the same. So I think a policeman and a guerilla are the same." Then she pushed away haughtily. She was determined to see where Arthur was to be taken. So they kept the two men in view. On the way ,in answer to the girls' queries, she explained who Arthur Hamilton was and why _ghe was inter ested in him. When they were little folks he saved her life. She and her father had bee^i capsized in the Mis sissippi river, and the brave boy sprang from another skiff, swam to her, and saved her. He was a poor boy, but a brave, noble one, and after that her father kept him In his em ploy till his death about two years ago. O, no, she was not "sweet on him," but she "liked" him because he was a bright, honest, industrious, well read young man. "What is more," she added, "he Is a willing soul." Just what she meant by this phrase—"a willing soul"—she did not define. They beheld with pain the young man led Into the gloomy lock-up, and turned away sadly, helplessly. The» were not a little astonished, at that very moment to observe the sharp, malicious eyes of a beardless, middle aged strange man bent fully upon theip out of a secret but inscrutable purpose. Then they went on their way classifying the rude fellow as one of the impudent sort. This story would never have been told, were it not for the startling for tunes of Sargeant Howell and their sequence. Only a few days previous to the base arrest of Arthur Hamilton, Sargeant had gone down to Arisona in search of a job. He had said be fore going there that he had "lived on the Interest of what he .owed" long: Men's Fine Vici Kid Shoes— blucher cut and straight lace sold everywhere at $2.75 We'll save you $1.07 per pair on them— Special at ... i....... $1 .68 811k HaadqnariBM si the Head of the lokei. Superior St., Lake Ave. and Mtehisan enough, and that he must "quit play ing the gent and go to work." So he "struck out for tall timber," where he would not have to beg to be allow ed to live or to work, which Is the same thing. The advloe of his friends to go into politlos he politely put aside. They urged, him to "strike" the Con gressman for a certain Job then open for some one. "Don't you know," said Sargent to this well-meant advice, "don't you know that money is the pull In politics. The man with the longest purse gets there. I got no money. Money is civil service and the Inside track both. The gilt-fingered Congressman has already promised it to Jdm Rioh, who will dlvy up 'spiles' with him. A poor sinner like me can't get a gov ernment posish these times—except In the army." Well, down in Arizona he fell in with a fellow workman named Sam Godol phus. Sargent said they "roosted" to gether in a little cabin, over the door of which a rifle was hung on the antlers of a deer. Both men worked on the railroad with a section gang, ate in the only boarding-house at the pioneer station, and bunked In this cabin. There was but one door to the one-roomed cabin, and one window ad mitted light from the west side. One warm Sunday afternoon about three o'clock Sam placed a glass pitcher of water on the ledge of the open window and lay down to take a nap. Sargent grew tired reading a paper-backed novel about the Apache Kid, and threw it down and went out. When about the distance of a square away, he was surprised beyond meas ure to hear the report of the rifle in the cabin. Sam could scarcely have waked up in the short time as to take down the rifle and fire it off and no once could have entered, for none was in sight a monjent before. His curiosity piqued fie hurried back, and was hoi-rifled to see Sam sweltering in his life blood and breathing his last. And more mysterious still was the fact that no one was ahywhere to be seen. He shook the dying man, and beheld the blood oozing out from behind his ear. The gun was empty. In some unaccountable way—was it spirita?— the weapon had been discharged with out removal, from the rack, where it still lay. The mystery deepened. Sar gent knew not one single friend of the dead man had never heard him say a word about his relatives or where they lived. Forthwith he dis closed the fearful tragedy at the board ing house. This was Sargent Howell's version of the affair. But—he was the only person in the shanty, people said, at the time of the shooting. The rifle was empty, and the murderer had coolly replaced it In the rack* The ball fit the gun. "They said" he killed the man for his money, and that the dead man had a "big wad" of It, for he was "once" seen with a roll of bills larger than a man's arm. And now he had no money on his person. Sargent Howell was domed from the first. However, he described the cabin and related all the incidents in connection with the kill ing of Sam Oodolphus in a long letter from his prison cell to his friend, Arthur Hamilton, also occupying a felon's cell. A mightly, concealed power, directed from some secret point, was pushing the proseoution against Sargent with a virulence that accorded not with strict justice. It was a persecuting power felt rather than seen or known. Somewhere the unknown Sam Oodol phus had friends who were avenging his death. Sargent Howell was convicted of murder in the first degree and sen tenced to be hung. But Sargent had an active young friend in Nona Dunlap, who knew him through their mutual friend Arthur Hamilton. Arthur and Sargent were great old chums. Without the aid of glittering gold Nona appealed to the Congressman in behalf of both Sar gent and Arthur—the one awaiting death as a murderer, the other In carcerated as an anarchist of the bloodiest type. Arthur had written at length to her what Sargent had written to him and In addition had clearly explained all the minutlal of his own unjust immurement. 'Tan cake Bill" Baker solemnly averred It was a no-such thing that Arthur was or could be a foul anarchist or that Sargent should be a red-handed mur derer. But he could not tell "Miss Nona" who the murdered man was nor who was pushing the prosecution In court "any more than he could fly to the moon, or find a better boarding house than Mrs. Lulu Cowen's. The strong, lady-like appeals of Nona won the amiable Congressman, and he finally promised her to engage the celebrated criminal lawyer, 'Mar shall Williams, In behalf of both Sar gent and Arthur. All this in grati tude for the saving of her life in sweet childhood.

"COLONIAL BELLES.? Coming events are said to cast their shadows before them but rays of sunshine should precede "The Colonial Belles", the burles que attraction which will be the bill at the Metropolitan all next week. It is without a doubt one of the brightest combinations of clever people, pretty women, una to-date comedy and tuneful music that has ever been seen on the bur lesque stage. Commencing with a topical farce "The Baby Farm" fol lowed by a vaudeville olio and con cluding with an elaborate burles que "Cohen, the Count", there Is not one moment from the rise to the final drop of the^curtain during which the audience Is not thorough ly amused and entertained. In the company are such bright lights of the comedy, musical and vaudeville world as Charles Robinson, the highest salaried character .comedian in burlesque Charles falke,, Am erica's favorite song illustrator Lawrence, Edwards & Marie Rich mond, the eccentric mirth produc ers Cook and Phillips, sidewalk eonversationsists and soft shoe dancers, and Rose Carlln, the vocal comedienne. The performance as a whole is rich in the gaiety of farce, the pretty music of comic opera, the visions of feminine beauty peculiar to burslesque and the scenic and costume effects of extra fpiganza. 6785.
