Periods of public rejoicing are usual ly looked forward to by the general run of people as times when the holi day spirit reigns supreme, when busi ness cares are forgotten or swamped by the vast influx of visitors, and when everything save pleasure is shoved in to the background. But professional de tectives view them from a different an gle. The crowds present an excellent op portunity for criminals to ply their various trades with a minimum of risk. All varieties, of rogues, from pickpock ets to the master minds of the under world, realize that the police force is being overworked, and take advantage of their opportunity to stage coups which they would not dare attempt under ordinary circumstances. It was for this reason that William very eyes of the authorities, while dan gerous characters from all quarters cf the globe would make it their busi ness to visit England under cover of the festivities. Upon Scotland Yard, of course, de volved the greatest tasks connected with the jubilee the protection of tne royal family and the visiting sovereigns from anarchists and. nihilists wha would be certain at least to attempt a demonstration of some kind. Every day brought warnings from Franca and Italy and Russia. Even New York reported that the Reds were restive, and that the word had been passel around among the inner circle that "something would, happen in London during the ubilee." While it was manifestly impossible i to prevent all those of anarchist ten Melville, then superintendent of the j dencies from entering England, Mel criminal investigation department ot New Scotland Yard, looked forward with the greatest of apprehension to the celebration of the jubilee of Queen Victoria. London was certain to be crowded to its utmost capacity. Men who were wanted by the police would be darting around, almost under the e ciais In Men s Oxfords Crown Calf Ox rubber heels, .-':rni -English last, in looks and ter- This oxford of dark calf, English last, with rubber heels, is neat and dressy and serviceable.

"We'd rath er have a mild, diplomatic discussion over the rights of entry, than to run the risk of a bomb-party in the streets of London." But in spite of all of Melville's ef forts, word reached headquarters that an American doctor, inflamed; against everything British, had collected a large sum of money to be expended in dynamiting a number of public build ings during the jubilee demonstration. The doctor himself '-was apparently keeping well in the background, but BAD BREATH Coated tongue, biliousness, sour stomach, sick headache, dizziness are not apt to molest you if your liver and bowels are working properly.

The report of this intended activity on the part of the dynamiters reached the Yard some time after the pair ha.l sailed from America, and Melville, therefore, was robbed of one of ins most effectual weapons for it . was practically certain that . the plotters had already landed in England and might even then be laying their plans for' action. Feeling certain that the Callans-Harkins combine was the most dangerous one which he would have to face, Melville called in the maority of the men assigned to watching the poi'ts of entry and turned them loose witn instructions to locate the two Ameri cans. Days and weeks passed with out the slightest clue, and the jubilee celebration was rapidly approaching Finally the superintendent was notified that the two men had been located, in one of the outlying sections of London; but that there was not the slightest shred of evidence against them. They were apparently nothing more than visitors, with visitors interests in the (approaching events and tourists' na tural curiosity about the historical spots and public edifices in the cit. So conservative were the report.? which reached headquarters about th i two Americans, that Melville decided to give his personal attention to the matter, realizing that a slip-up migr.'. lead to embarrassing complications. The first thing that the superintendent noted was that Callan and Harkins nav- er left their lodgings at the same time. One of them always remained in the room, and no strategem would suffice to lure the guard away. Thfn it was that Fate or Fortune came! to Melville's aid. A friend of the two Americans, living in the same house, died suddenly from perfectly natural causes. But Scotland Yard took upon itself to "suspect" foul play,, and sv eryone who knew the dead man was called upon to testify at the inquest, where Melville's ingenuity was seen t its height. Little by little and bit by bit he led the two men almost imperceptibly into admissions that they were acquainted with the physician who had financed the scheme. Then he drew forth further testimony, relative to the past history of the two men, and, just a.? he .was on the point of demanding point-blank an admission ' that they had come to England with the id:;a of planting dynamite, a slip of paper was passed to him from one of the op eratives on the outside. "Room contains large quantities cf time-bombs," read . the note. "A. so plans of several buildings along the line of march. Turning, Melville surveyed the plot ters with a , smile of triumph. "There is not the slightest suspi cion. . he stated, "mat you were in any way connected with the death of your i'riend. - That, it appears, is a matter, in which the Yard is not furth er interested. The dead man has serv ed his purpose. He has told a tale or rather, he has permitted us to write 'Finis' to a tale almost unparalleled for sheer. audacity and cold-blooded in humanity." "No."- he snapped, as tne two men started to leave the room where the in quest was being held, "you are not yet free. I stated merely that you were no longer to be held., in connection with the death of the other American. .You are under arrest "for a fare more heinous xrime the intention or blow ing up & number of public buildings and causing tne,,aeatn or. scores, not. hundreds, of innocent, people. orxa nateiy, however, we were able to draw you away .irom . your room long enough to search it, tnanKS to -tne op portune .death of your friend.

IRISH SYMPATHIZERS DRAW UP RESOLUTION Denver, Colo., June 10. Immediate recognition of the "Irish Republic," withdrawal of the British troops from Ireland, and the payment by Great Britain of the. nine billion dollars loaned by the United States, is de manded in the resolution tentatively drafted by Irish sympathizers to be submitted to the convention of the American Federation of Labor here next week. The Irish sympathizers will ask the Federation to call upon President Hard- inf to communicate immediately a mes sage to Congress urging recognition of -the Irish republic and formally pro test against the alleged ' barbarous warfare" being carried on by British troops in Ireland.
