T OHX, I’m sure I heard someone
downstairs.”
"Xonsense, Mary! You heard the
wind blowing the vines against the
house."
“It sounded like breaking glass. I
wish you'd go down, John.”
"Ob, pshaw I”
“It may be burglars.”
“Well, let them help themselves; Pm
too sleepy to raise objections."
Mrs. Arnold listened intently for a
moment, then, believing herself to have
been mistaken, she, too, dropped
asleep.
"Early the next morning the worthy
couple were awakened by a vigorous
pounding on their door.
“Mr. Arnold 1” called the servant.
“Mr, Arnold, come down,quick! Some
thing dreadful has happened.”
Mrs. Arnold was on her feet in a
moment. "What is It?” she called
through the door.
"Robbery! aud everything in the li
brary turned upside down.”
It was a strange sight that met the
eyes of the family as they entered the
little library, which was usually so
tidy. Chairs were overturned, books
and papers scattered about in wild con
fusion, and a large plate glass window
was smashed into fragments. Mr. Ar
nold's desk was opened, the contents
of the various drawers were scattered
about the door, aud the box containing
his private papers was missing. •
“I told him so!” said Mrs. Arnold.
They were the first words that had
been spoken since the worthy couple
entered the room.
“I* wish I had heeded you,” said Mr.
Arnold, ruefully.
“I don’t,” said his daughter Ruth.
"You might have been shot.”
“I would have risked a great deal,”
replied Mr. Arnold, “rather than have
lost the papers which that box con
tained.”
“Your deeds and insurance papers,
were they not?" asked his wife. "The
deeds are properly register®!], and the
insurance papers can be readily du
plicated. There is no great loss —”
“But that was not all," interrupted
Mr. Arnold. *‘l had sent $4,000 to Wil
liams, in Xew York, to invest in govern
ment bonds, and lust night while you
and Ruth were out calling, I received
a package from him containing the
bonds. 1 placed them in that box for
safekeeping, I don't see why I could
not have thought of them, last night,
when you awakened me!”
"Father,” said Ruth —the only one
in the family who had retained her
presence of mind —“the poliee must be
notified at once. Leave everything just
as it is. and I’ll telephone to the sta
tion."
In a short time the chief of police
and his lieutenant were carefully in
vestigating the scene of the robbery.
“You know no reason for the rob
bery?" questioned the officer, “except
the value of the papers taken?”
"None, whatever,” replied Mr. Ar
nold.
“The robbers evidently took their
time. It is strange none of you heard
them come through the window."
"My wife did hear —’
“Rut they did not o.im- through t!>
svindow,”interrupted Ruth. That win
used only for an exit after the robbery
had been committed.
The officer looker jt: as’, onUhment at
the pretty girl before him.
"Miss Arnold," he said, smiling, “the
detective field is before yon! May 1
ask you your reasons lor believing that
the persons who entered this room
lust night did not come in through the
window?”
“The window was broken from the
inside, sir. The glass is on the porch,
not in the room."
The officer looked at tne window,
gave a low whistle, and then smiled.
“You are right. Miss Arnold,” hi* said,
then, turning to Mr. Arnold, asked:
"What about your servants?"
“We have only two, and they ha\c
been with ns for years. I cannot
think of tbeir being connected with
this crime.”
"But the person who committed the
robbery was evidently let into the
house by someone.”
"Then why did not that someone
also let them out?" asked Ruth.
“Another good point." said the offi
cer.
“They evidently did not enter by the
doors or windows on the lower floor,”
said Ruth; “1 believe they came in
through tne skylight. It is not a dif
ficult matter to reach the roof by way
of the back porch and the eavcspipc.
I've seen brother do it often when be
was home."
"But why did not our burglar leave
the house in the same way he en
tered?” asked the officer, smilingly.
"Because, in shutting the door after
he had entered the room, the catch
was sprung, locking him in. When
he got ready to leave he broke the
window my means of that chair and
made his escape."
“You speak as if there were but
one.”
“I believe, upon thinking of it, that
there was but one.” replied Ruth.
“Had there been two, they would have
consulted together, when they found
the door had fastened, and would have
seen that a. little patient work would
have enabled them to unlock it with
out danger of detection. There must
have been but one and be was no
doubt new to the work. As for break
ing the window with that, chair—you
will notice that the legs are badly
scratched; they were not so yester
day.”
Before returning to headquarters to
give Instructions to his men, the offi
cer said to Ruth, with great earnest
ness: “Mi**- Arnold, ours Is an hon-
orable profession, in spite of all that
may be said' to the contrary, unu
should you ever desire to make use
of the ability which you possess. I
shall be only too glad to assist you,”
“My daughter a detective!”, ex
claimed Mr. Arnold, indignantly. “I
guess not I”
“Xever mind, father, there isn’t
much danger of my becoming u femi
nine representative of Sherlock
Holmes. But 1 somehow seem to feel
that J. cannot only discover your pa
pers, but the person who took them,
as well. Let. me do what I can, and
if I am successful—well, you may be
obliged to get me anew hat, or some
thing else very nice!"
That the robbery, when told in the
daily press, created a sensation in the
quiet little city in which it occurred,
was a foregone conclusion. It was
nothing, however, compared to the in
terest aroused by the various vivid re
citals of “Our Lady Pinkerton,” most
of which were, as u matter of course,
more imaginative than true. The offi
cer, impressed with Miss Arnold's abil
ity, had made a few unguarded re
marks which had been quietly worked
up into a good story for local publica
tion, and as a result she, soon found
herself the center of considerable no
toriety It was exceedingly distaste
ful to her, as well as to her family
and friends, for the Arnolds belonged
to the more aristocraflc circles o# so
ciety.
"Well,” said Ruth, philosophically,
“ ‘what can’t he cured must be en
dured,’ and I’m going on with this
work, anyhow. Mr. Dixon will be here
this morning, and I wish you to be
present at our interview, please
papa.”
Mr, Dixon, one of the best detect
ives in the country, was ushered into
the library. He had arrived in the
city on the day following the robbery,
and had since been investigating the
various clews.
“You understand, he said, with
characteristic abruptness, “that se
crecy is one of the first lessons the de
tective must learn.”
“You have nothing to fear so far os
father and I are concerned,” replied
Ruth.
"Had 1 not the very highest idea of
your reticence, 1 assure you I should not
be here to-day. May I ask,” he contin
ued. as they seated themselves around
the library table, “your opinion as to
who is the thief?”
“We have not gone as far as that,”
replied Mr. Arnold.
“Then I am one ahead; I have lo
cated my man."
“It was not a man, Mr. Dixon, who
committed that crime,”said Ruth; “in
stead. it wa.- a tall v oma.n with black
curly hair.”
“Miss Arnold, you surprise me!"
"Vou notice this small si and,”’ con
tinued Ruth, “with my father’s read
ing lamp upon it? Well, the chandelier
above it is so low that even I cannot
pass under it without touching my
head. M\ father had it fixed that way
so ns to bring the light down a,s close
ly as possible, and as we have always
kept this stand beneath i<-. nobody has
ever interfered with it. This stand was
overturned by our midnight visitor,
who. by the way. called at 17 minutes
past 12. and. after trying the door, she
ran across the room, coming in contact
with the chandelier. Now. if you ex
amine closely you will see a long,
black, enrh hair hanging on the chan
delier. It has been there since the
night of th robbery."
"Seven‘e-.!, minute s past 12.” mused
V . IV-,- u. "Hew did you arrive at
"The little Swiss clock on my father’s
desk w., overturned, and stopped at
tl at hour. It is so constructed that it
will not run unless in an upright po
si: inn. Before the w >man came down
stairs she entered the large room over
this one, took one of the wax candles
from the scene-- in the wall and light
ed it. Shi-descended the stairs without
either shoes or stockings, and placer
the caudle in that bron/.e candlestick
on the mantel.”
*'M;ss Arnold, to speak mildly, you
astonish me I 1 do not say that I
convinced, but— well. I should 111 aye ;•••
reasons for the remarkable statenu n
you have just made. The candle- the
bare feet, etc.”
“L have opportunities for making in
vestigations," said Ruth, modestly,
“that are not given a stranger. There
is nothing remarkable about it. 1
found the wax candle on the porch in
front of the window, and knew it to
be similar to the remaining taper in
the sconce in the room just overhead.
We use these tapers only in that room,
and of course she must have gone there
to get it, and. since it is missing, she
must have been the one who took it.
Neither of the tapers had ever I seen
lighted on the night preceding- I he rob
bery. The one I found was partially
burned. !t could not have been thrown
down, because there is no window ip
that r .om over the porch, and so it
must have been brought down. A
burned match was on the stand be
neath the sconce, and so 1 knew the
candle had been lighted in the room.
IVc have no carpets on that floor,
which is of hard wood. The rugs had
l>cen taken up on the day preceding the
robbery, that the floor might be oiled,
and by looking closely, one can detect
the marks of a hare foot. These foot
prints are very illegible, be: alwe the
floor wns almost drv. but in the proper
light they can be seen. That bron/.e
candlestick has not been used to hold
u candle since we purchased it. If
yon will examine it now, you will find
wax clinging to It, which serves to con
vince me that the woman had put the
candle in that candlestick while she
went about her work.”
“You are exceedingly observing.”
said Mr. Dixon, “and it looks ns if yon
were right in your conclusions.”
“We have never thought Ruth particu
larly observing.” said Mr. Arnold; “but
there is anew hat and a sealskin jacket
at stake, which may account for her
acuteness at this time.”
“Oh,” said Kutii, lightly, “do not fear
that I mean to rob you of any of the
laurels of your profession. 1 am anx
ious, in this case, because father's
money is at stake, but I hardly think I
should want to make detective work
my profession.”
“Ii would not trouble me if you did,"
said Mr. Dixon, “for 1 believe this to
be my last case. For that reason lam
particularly atixious to succeed. 1 have
formed a law partnership, and my
whole time, from this on. must-be given
to my chosen profession.”
Day after day. Ruth and Mr. Dixon
worked upon their various clues, each
trying to excel the oilier in obtaining
desirable information, and both en
joyed the work more than they real
ized. The days lengthened into weeks,
and soon an entire month was gone.
Early one morning Ruth startled
her parents by rushing into the li
brary, her face all aglow with excite
ment.
“I've found it!” she exclaimed.
“Here it is. the box—the papers—rev
erything!”
“Where —where?” began Mr. Ar
nold, who was too excited to form an
intelligible sentence.
“Out in the summer house, on that
little shelf, which is only a trifle
higher than my head—why. we might
have seen it at any time, had we only
thought to look there!”
Mr. Arnold opened the box. The
papers were found to be undisturbed.
When Mr. Dixon called, that morning.
Ruth met him with a smiling, tri
umphant face, and led the way to the
library.
“Mr. Detective,” she said, pointing
to the box, “confess yourself outwit
ted "
"Hav® you iilsti discovered that the
tall woman with the black hair was
possessed of blue eyes?” said Mr. Dix
on, jestingly.
“Oh, you may make fun of me all
you like.” retorted Ruth. “It is your
only resource, but I <’an afford to
overlook it.”
“Well,” said Mr. Dixon, “I am glad
the papers are safe, but the case is
not concluded until the thief is
found.”
“So long as we have the paper . we
do not want the thief.” replied IJuth;
“we shouldn’t know how to entertain
her properly, if we had her.” And
then, uke an excited child, she told
him how she had found the papers.
"The recovery of the property does
not end the obligations of the law."
said Mr. Dixon; and 1 am more de
termined now than ever to find the
guilty party. I have one more clew,
but it will take me away from here,
unless —"
“Away from here! You are going
—away ?"
“I must.”
“I am very sorry." It was all she
said, but a woman's voice is often her
surest betrayer.
“Would you like our case to last
a little longer?” he asked, coining
closer to her. “I confess that I
should.”
What she replied does not concern
us. It is enough for us to know that,
before the interview ended. Ruth and
Mr. Dixon had decided to enter into
a life partnership at no distant day.
“And now,” said Mr. Dixon was il
an hour later, or two hours? —“I must
see your father."
“Going to ask him for me?" asked
Ruth, laughing, “What a funny idea,
isn't it!”
“Ves," said Mr. Dixon, “when we
consider the fact that I should take
you anyhow! Hut it's better to go
through the customary proceedings in
such matters, isn’t it? Besides, there
is my clew—"
“Oh. John, you must tell me about
that! Remember, I am more your
partner, now. than ever! Have you
found the guilty one/’
“I think so."
“Tell me! Tell me. Tell me. this
minute!" and Ruth got much closer
to him than was really necessary,
considering that the couch was long
enough to hold three persons. “Was
1 right in any of my conclusions?"
. "The robbery was certainly commit
ted by a tall, dark-haired woman: she
has brown eyes, by the way. and her
hair is curly only when she makes
it so. I have reason to believe she
went into the morn overhead, as you
said, and descended the stairs in her
bare feet; but I must differ from you.
Miss Detective, regarding her en
trance into the house. She <1 id not
come in through the roof. She was
a member of the household.”
“Excuse me, Air, Detective, hut I do
not believe it! The cook is short, and
her hair is light. And Jane, our only
other servant. Is not only short, hut
has very red hair."
“There is nothing in detective work
so bewildering as the unexpected.
This robber, after securing the box,
placed it in the summer house; then,
unlike most law breakers, she re
traced her steps, reentered the library,
unfastened the door, but failed to
spring the catch, and again entered
the hall. From there this exceedingly
hold robber returned to her room and
went to sleep. I turn* been consult
ing people who have known her all
their lives, and have been told that
she was given to walking in her
sleep—”
“John, you dare not say It was I!"
“My dear, I am obliged to make the
humiliating confession that the rob
bery was committed by my promised
wife."

losing all patience, “how many more

times already."
“Tben. if you are sensible.’’ replied
Hnrduppe, "yon won't call again.

LANDS,

year. Railroads are the great civilizers,
for they give the settler as well as tile
manufacturer equal opportunity to
work in undeveloped, {kids, therefore
rapidly settling the country and bring
forth its undiscovered riches. North
ern Wisconsin is rich in iron ore: clay,
kaolin, marl, timber and fine farm
lands. It lias made many a settler
independent and added to the wealth of
manufacturers who have sought this
territory. Opportunities have not
passed, as there is still a generous
supply 'f land which can be obtained at
low figures and on easy terms.
