CHAPTER VI. ,' ' '
JT VW&J1KD TliK JUDCB.
wmio tho littlo party was on Its way j
to tho abode of justice, Drane bad timo :
to bring his mind- to ono definite and
valnablo conclusion.. His misfortancs
on a similar occasion had been aggra- ;
vated by his own injudicious utterance a.
He resolved to keep still this time, evon .
if ho had to hire somebody to ga him. i
It was littlo that he knew about Now
York excopt as to its pavements and iti i
distances.and both these he. was prepared
to condemn as emphatically as would
any reformer.,. Ho bad not supposed
that his second arrest took place in the
same judicial district in which his first
came to pass. ' By reason of his rehabili
tation hia nerves bad maintained a fair
poise during tho sboTt Journey to tbo
court, but when he saw the ornate tower
of Jefferson market ahead of bim and
, thon roalizod that ho was bound to ap
pear before tho same justico who had
lectured bim. but a day or two previous
ly, thoy "foil to quivering -ominously.
. Nevertheless he kept np appearances
and entered tho court room with an air
of dignified self-possession.
) The bulk of tho day's business had
been cleared away, so ho and bis com
patvion in dlrtross wore summonod at
once to tho bar.
. "What i this case?" demanded the
i, Judge. , ''
.'This tnan," responded the polico-
man, jerking his thumb towards the
nggeH tramp, "accuses thU gentleman

The judge glanced in surpriso from
one to tbo other of tbo parties, and
.ho looked sharply at Lawrenco as if tho
face reminded bim of somebody. Then
be ordered the complainant to stop op
and a4kod.bini his namo. .
, "'Lawronce Drane," was the cool reply.
7 Again tbo judge soemcd to bo trying
to recall ooroetbing out of tbo dim re
erswos of bis memory, but tho effort
failed, and be composed himself to lis
ten, to- the complainant's story. The

"'Did you ever sf tbo prisoner be
fore? .asked the judge.
MI think I saw bim not rooro than
three days ago," replied tbe iurpootor;
"It was late in tbo afternoon and bo had
a skate on. I remember bim because
of nbeso rajs which bo wore at tbo
time." -
' Tbe judgo tamed to Mr. Drano, who
bad been lis toning intently, and began
tbo examination ia tbo usual way, by
asking hi name. Lawrenco was vebo-.
mcntly moved to denounce bis -accuser.
bat bo recalled bis determination, to
control bit ton goo in thisepiaodo; tbcro
fore be responded simply:
Lawronce Drano."
A big scowl tangled tbo judge's eye
brow and puckered up bis lips. Judicial
memory was again ia process of canttga
ticm. - This timo tbe mental proddinf

t lying, espocially when he knew h
. was in the right Mo reovor the angel
was present the court-room, though
Lawrenoo didn't know it, and the bad
not a yet discovered him. ' Perhaps hor
Influonce had something to do with In
ducing bim to falter an aflirhiative to
tho Judge's question. The reply stlmu
latcd the judge's memory wondorfully.'
: "You tried to pass yourself under two
names then, didn t you?" he continued.
, "May I explain, your honor" .
"Did you or didn't you? Speak tip!"
; 'I did, your honor, but there were cir
cumstances, thon that Justified me. I
was in trouble and, hardly know what I
-was about."
"What possible circumstances could
have justified yon In lying about-your-
name?"
i It instantly ooourrcd to Lawrence
that hero was an opportunity to make
a full explanation at his situation, but
so much trouble had come to him from
Buch attempts that bo renowed bis de
termination to say absolutely nothing,
So he rospbnded: i.
- 'I decline to say." .
This surprised and angorcd the judge
and ho ordered the ofSoer to search
Lawrence They took from bin all hia
papers, his money and his watch. They
considerately left him his handkorohicf.
Upset by the indignity of this proceed
ing, ho exclaimed:
: "I will say and maintain tbat I am
Lawrence Drane! I live in Kansas City
and am in Now York simply on my way
to Boston, whore I proposo to negotiate
capital for a railroad." 1
, "Very well," said the Judgo, dryly,
and turning to tho Impostor: "What
havo you to say to this?"
"Why!" was the reply, "that I am
Lawrenoe Draue and that this follow is
telling my story. Those papers and
letters which you have will probably
make tbo. matter clear. Doubtless ho
glanced at them at tho bath and so got
his points." '
.Tho judge lookod at tho papers, but
thoy failed to satisfy him. He asked
for witnesses, and the attendants at the
bath were sworn. v' 'v
"Which of thoso men?" asked the
judge, "came to tho bath in good clothoa,
and which ono in rags? '
"I remember," said tho witness, hes
itating, "that I took a fellow in thoso
rags to a room, and I think it was that
one,'' pointing to Lawrenco. "When ho
was in the sweating room," ho con
tinued, "ho looked just about like any
body olso." ''"
Thero is an individuality in logs, but
few men recognize it, not oven at
tendants at baths who have unrestricted
opportunities for observation. Tho tes
timony of thoso witnesses made it prot
ty clear that Lawrenco had left tho bath
with hotter clothes than be wore wbon
bo entered, but they could do nothing
to clear up the question of idontity.
Tbtn Lawrenco requested tho privi
lcgo of examining tho plaintiff. This
granted, ho confused tbo fellow in short
order by putting a sorios of questions
dosignod to bring out bis knowledge of
Kansas City and his familiarity with
the business mission in which ho pro
tended to bo ongagd. The scale ap
peared to be turning in Mr. Drano's
favor. Justico was still in doubt, how
over, and the court declared that it
would bo necessary to got some direct
evidence as to tho Idontity of each
claimant to tho name of Drano.
"I think, your honor," said the im-
.pastor, "that the people at my hotel
can satisfy you I should like to go
there to get m grip and a decent tuit of
clothes. If I was better dressed my
story would spund moro likely."
. Lawrenoo s. ailed grimly st this, for
,ho knew tot well how true it was.
Things bad ranged. Tbe clothes wore
on another pan's back and ho In turn
was vlctimli -d by tbem.

An Exhibition That

Twenty-third'' street was crowded.
with fcarly evening holiday shoppers,
Most of them had bundles, mid all of
Jhern showed tbat nervous . hurry

chasers. .The ono leisurely figure in
the crowd was a young man in a
loni frock coat, ..embellished with
bunch. of carnations, the most shin
ing of shoes, und a tall hat scarcely
less Binning, wuo naa a oiacic span
lei attached to a chain. The span
iel would have liked to be leisurely.
too, but he had to skip about with
much agility ' to avoid bavins' his
paws trodden on.
In his sauntering the young man
came to a little heap of packing
boxes obstructing the sidewalk. He
unfastened the ' dog's chain and
whistled' In- a peculiar way. The
spaniel ; leaped up on the highest
box as if It were only a step, instead
of four feet high, and sat up with
one paw at salute. The hurrying
6hoppers stopped as if a brick wall
had appeared in front of them, and
gathered : around the box. The
young man took no notice of them.
Ngw, my boy, said he to the
dog, "we'll have a quiet smoke.
Cigarette or pipe?" .-
As he spoke he drew one of each of
these articles from his pocket. "The
spaniel barked when tho pipe ap
peared. 7
"Pipe, eh?" said his master.
"You'ro very English,' chappie,
aren't you? Well, I'll take the cig
arette myself."
He handed tho pipe to the dog,
who seized it between his teeth.
Then the young man filled and
lighted it, lighting his own cigarette
with the same match. Tbe dog held
the pipe up, and apparently puffed
at it. ,
"Like it now, don't you?" said the
young man; "but you didn t. use to.
How did you feel when you first
smoked?"
Down dropped tho pipe from the
spaniel's mouth. He clasped his
paws pathetically over his stomach;
his cars dropped, his " bead hung
down, and ho looked the picture of
misery. The crowd roared with de
light.
"Why, what, a crowd you've gath
cred, old man, said the master to
his dog, In apparent astonishment.
"You'll have to move on or tho police
will bo after you. Now say good-
by and hop down.
Straightening himself up, tho per
former mado a military salute first
to one aide, then to the other, and
with a joyful bark jumped down and
joined bis muster as he sauntered on.
"What are you advertising, mis
ter?" called one of the crowd. ,
But the young man only smiled
and turned up Broadway. N. Y.

"DEAR OLD THACKERAY."
SIdo Lights That Show H's Lovable
Traits In Family Life.
A characteristic story of "dear old
Thackeray" is told by Mrs. Ross in
her reminiscences. "Thackeray was
a constant visitor," said sho, "in
Queen's square, and a great favorite
of mine,, though ho played mo
trick on my fifth birthday which re
mained a standing joke between him
and the 'young revolutionist,' as he
after ward3 used to call me, occause
I was born on tlio2-ll.li day of Feb
ruary. My birthdays wero always
celebrated by a dinner, when I was
allowed to dino downstairs and to
invite tbo guests. Few children
could boast of such an array of
friends; this one included Mrs. Nor
ton, Lord Lansdowne. Tom Taylor,
Richard Doyle, C. J. Bayley and
Thackeray, who gave me nn oyster,
declaring it was like cabinet pud
ding. But I turned tho tables on
Llm, for I liked it so much that I in
sisted, as queen' of tho day, on hav
ing more. I still possess a sketch he
made for the frontispiece of 'Pcn
dennis' while I was sitting oa his
knee.
"Thackeray often dropped in to
dinner, generally announcing him
self beforehand in some funny way.

The Long-Handled Dipper.
Among the last letters written by
Dr. Holmes was one to Charles Fol-
len Adams, acknowledging the re
ceipt of bis dialect poem: "Dot
Long-Handled Dipper," in which
the genial autocrat said: "I thank
you for the fresh draft from this
long-handled tin dipper, which you
have made a rival to the 'Old Oaken
Bucket.' Some of my best drinks
when I was a boy of fifteen at An-
dover were from a cocoanut dipper,
but that was not destined ts immor
tality, like the more fortunate re
ceptacles. I have always bad
great liking for Yawcob and bis
young hopeful, and I hope tbey will
long continue to make the world
