Englewood (lately incorporated as a city) was at that time a small, plea- santly situated town in Bergen county, on the Northern railway, about four- teen miles north of Jersey City, and famous as being the first settled por- tion of the State, a few * Dutchmen having crossed over from’ Manhattan island as long ago as 1618,:and erectzd a few cabins back of the’ Palisades. My resolve was rot to leave the city if I discovered Gone oresany: one shad- owing me. I may as wéll «confess that I was beginning to feel uncom- fortable over the Chicago -end of the business. That the reril was a serious ene could not be @oubted. ‘How deep- ly Harold was ‘involved was to be learned, but surdiy it was :to:a grave ext. nt. And whatever threatened hinr threat- ened me. It might be twenty years in Sing Sing, or some United’ States renitentiary, for ‘the laws v-against counterfeiting are severe. ‘Suppose I were caught in the toils, Haroid would take precious goo care not to give me the oppurtunity ‘to vindicate my- self, Resentful and timid, I-ventured from the house on the forenoon of the bright May dav, dressed im .a business suit and swinging a cane. I'had previous- ly looked out from ‘my window, and had seen nothing .of Cone or any one who seemed te be watching the build- nockets. After i ing.

I was the only who entered at that plase and@i felt hopefall. It was impossible that any of the oc- cupants should be interested in me, but, ell the seme I seanned every face. one even:to that of the iittie girl sitting on its mother’s lap. The wesult was satisfactory. : “It: not so hard after al to throw one @- those sleuthnounds cff the scent. Covey Cone doubtless thinks himself.one of the best im :the service, ! and possibly he is, but here I #m slip- ping awey from under his very nose.” At the corner of Chambers street I stepped tfrom the car and walked ward therriver, where I was to take the ferryboat:‘to Jersey City. A lingering fear that:after all I migtt have been deceived made me watchful, even af- ter entering the curs at the station. I take it‘that when an erdinarily in- telligent person is on the alert against being followed it is impossible for any detective, no matter how skilful, to shadow such person without discov- ery. Of necessity scme of his move- gsrents must ghve away his secret. to- There was nething of that nature in my case, and when I stepped from the cars at Englewood I was never more certain of anytking than I was that not a person on the train held any earthiy interest ts me. The fact that I carried no luggage caused some interest on the part of the landlord, which, however, was sa- tisfied by the payment of a week’s poard and lodging in advance. Then, procuring some reading matter and a few articles, I was in a position to wait for that which was to come. A week went by without incident. During that time not a letter or word reached me from New York; I felt as if immured in some priscn cell or in the jungles of Africa. At the end of a swweek, however. the world began re- volving again on its own axis. A letter from Harold was forwarded to me. It was postmarked in Liver- poel and was written shortly after his arrival, so that it should have reach- ed me sooner :— I have only time for a word or Arrived here after an unusually quick sage for the unusually quick Lucf&nia. Vill not ask you. to write, for I have no letter two. as idea where I shall be when your arrives. Don't suppose you have anything to tell of moment. Fancy you have had some odd experiences, but since, for all intents and purposes, ycu are Harold Westcott you must handle ‘em just as you think he would do if he were at home. Don't be surprised if you don’t hear from me for several weeks, though I hope I shall not keep you waiting long. But whv did we agree to correspond when : : | destination it would be ro < ' except a i comes to him then the end «vill be near. The letter written her had been received bv him. Ji was sent om Lendon shortly before she sailed for heme. Naturally he would go t9 that city to find her. Failing there, } woulda soon obtain trace of her. Once the suspicion formed that she had returned with the purpose of sufr- prising him it would be, the easiest thing in the world to learn the truth, for the lists of passengers that had left iverpool by the Cunarders would tell the story. Thus the matter presented itself te me as I sat in my room im the Engie- weod hotel. But for that shadow of * Budd” in the background the whole problem would be solved, but what a baleful part was to be played by him in the drama beginning to unfold it self ! 1 was eager to am something, but could not. It was mine to wait until perhaps the demand woul! come with the suddenness of a cyclone. On the following day another letter was forwarded te me, and it wes .a stunner :— Chicagea, Muay 11, 1896. H. OG. Westcott,—Your telegram was a surprise, for it was the first time you had dared to address such a thing to Budd here at the Auditoriura. It aGok some d-——d sharp lying for me t .get hold of it, but I nyvanaged it at last. Your story of having received a thump which knocked what little brains ‘you had due ly west would have been too thin but for your telegram. That show- ed you were the fool that Jake al- ways insisted. But I suspect you are trying a little trick to get out of sending the money you owe ‘us. However, ‘it won't work. As soon as I got your message I wrote to you explaining mat- ters and said if the money was not sent by return mail f would be in New York by the limited to hear what you had to say about it. The money hasn't been sent. So Fl be there. +. De Here at last was something definite. I had learned the initials of ‘“ Budd” even if I did not know his Christian .or given name. Furthermore, I was correct in my supposition about the j letter which Detective Cone was clever | 4 | -enough te divert from my hand. Evidently, too, Mr. 'T. D. felt pretty cceertain of his man. He indulged in no argument or appesis, but wrote as if he had no doubt of his mastery of the situation. Inasmuch as I had ‘failed to comply with his demand he had started for New York to find out ‘the reason why and to corapel me. ‘The date of the letter and his an- mnouncement of taking «the limited made it probable that he was already in the metropolis. What would he think anid do when whe went to my apartments and was teld that I had gone away for an in- ‘definite time 2? He would believe I fied to.avoid him and his anger would be ‘intensified. ‘But there is no way that he can wet trace of me,” I reflected. “I don’t knaw whether I would prefer te meet him or not.

He was har.dsome, with his dark mustache and short brown hair, wel! rounded face, fine teeth and glittering eyes. “Tell!” he exclaimed in a bass, guttural voice. His square jaw disclosed his buildog determination, and I could well under- stand why Harold Westcott would go te Europe to avoid meeting with this dangerous individual. The glitter of his light gray eye showed that my caller was mad “ clean through.” He paused in the middle of the room, and, without offering his hand, lodked me fiercely in the face, as if he expected to hypnotize me, but I coolly surveyed him without any evidence of fear. “Well!” he exclaimed, im a bass, guttural voice. “Did wou come all the way from Chicago to say ‘ Well ?’ Sit down and say what you have to say or get out, or ff it suits you better, I'll take you by the neck and heels ‘and throw you out:” The gray eyes fiashed fire. “You'll throw Tom Discoe out, ch ?

THE DAILY EXAMINER CHARLOTTETOWN SEPTEMRER 161907 Searce of Heat In the Body. An important source of heat in the body is due to the friction of the blood as it circulates in its vessels. Allof this resistance, which is overcome by the heart, is transformed directly into heat. We may calculate the amouut approxi- mately. it is supposed that .6192 kilo- gram meters of blood is expelled from the left ventricle at each stroke, and at 72 strokes a minute this would give 44.3124 kilogram meters per minute. If we suppose that the right heart does one-quarter the work of the left, or avout 10 kilogram meters per minute, we have for the total work per minute 54.312 kilogram meters, which corre- sponds to 128 calories per minute. ‘This is perhaps a rather high estimate fer ordinary conditions, but where the Learé is forced to pump a much larger quantity of biood in order to maintain tke normal temperature this estimate is probably much exceeded at times. Since this friction takes place iargely in the most constricted portions of the circulation, it would be natural to ex- pect that the blood which had been driven through the capillary system of a gland would issue much warmer than it entered, and such we find to be the case. Thus the blood of the hepatic vein has been observed to be 40.73, while thai in the right heart was 37.7. In the muscles no contraction can take place without an increased flow of blood through them, with a simultaneous con- striction of the capillaries, which would naturally give grise to a considerable production of heat, a fact constantly observed. —Sanitariau. Curious Facts About the Toad. The toad lives 10 to 40 years, does Ret begin to produce young until the fourth year, but then lays over 1,000 eges a year. It has lived two years without food, but cannot live long un- der water. It never takes dead or mo- tionless food. It takes its food by means of its tongue alone, and it operates this £0 rapidly that the eyecannot follow its motions. It captures and devours bees, wasps, yellowjackets, ants, beetles, worms, spiders, snails, bugs, grasshop- pers, crickets, weevils, caterpillars, moths, etc. The stomach that doesn’t flinch at yellowjackets, wasps, blister beetles and click beetles or pinch bugs would seem to be prepared for anything in the insect line, and it doubtless is. “ In 24 hours the toad consumes enough food to fill its stomach four times. A single tead will in three months devour over 10,000 insects. If every ten of these would have done 1 cent damage, the toad has saved $10. Evidently the toad is a valuable friend to the farmer, gardener and fruit grower and can be made especially useful in the green- house, garden and berry patch. —Galves- ton News.
