I tried to rally my failing courage It was useless. The cold-blooded rascal actually laughed a jolly, hearty langb. But seeing my continued confusion, be assumed a sonons demeanor, and said: "Give it up, my friend. You are not the man for such business. Vou will simply get your bead jammed for your trouble and per haps lose your life. What Ho you say? KCBigu your office. 1 will ask the captain to call in at Beau fort, N. C, and you can post your letter to J. (I. Wax. Jt will reach him long before we pet to Savan nah." To this I made no reply; but, as suming an air ol offended dignity. ! I retired to my cabin. Then 1 ! held a council of war with myself. I concluded to have no more words with this man; to keep aloof from him; but to watch him, to prevent his doing mo any barm. I resolved to carry out the program to the letter, and deliver my man at Sa vannah to the one who ''wanted" him. Just before we arrived off Capo Lookout, iv furious storm com menced. It grew worse and worse, till near the evening of the second day. Our Captain determined to enter Beaufort Inlet and anchor in the harbor till the storm subsided. In endeavoring to carry out this plan, the vessel was blown past tho entrance and was beaohed about two miles south ot Fort Macon. Heavy seas noon swept the decks, and in a few hours tbe schooner went to pieces. But before this final catastrophe, the Captain, crew and passengers bad taken to tho boats. All landed safely on terra Jirma except Bottle Nose Jack. I have never seen him since. No one saw bim on tbe vessel when it was breaking up and lie was not iu any of the boats. The next day we made our way into Beaufort. I crossed over to More bead City in a sharpie and boaght a ticket for (loldsboro intending to go back at once to Washington and report to my Chief the death of Jack. There was only one pas senger from Beaufort in my boat. Be was a young man of about eighteen years of age, slenderly built and a very sallow complexion. On examining his features I was struck at once with his resemblance to my lost friend Jack. The nose was a fac-simile, And this was the more remarkable, because yon seldom see a "bottle" nose on such a person. I became interested in my com panion. He was dressed rather oddly. He wore oordoroy pants and a thick knitted .woollen jacket, coarse, iu fitting shoes ana a greasy skull cap completed his costume. When we ianded from tbe boat, at the railroad , whari, he carried ashore, in his hand, a queer look ing band satchel. It was almost a perfect cube in shape, evidently made of wood, covered with leath er. He waa ridiculously careful with his precious satchel lifting it with both hands and scrupulous ly Intent on keeping it level. . I was close behind bim when be stepped from the boat to tba wharf and I noticed that when his foot touched the floor of the landing' place, a distinct clicking sound .was beard .from. : bis baggage. I taif'ieJ. Eat o kLItticg Lis box I. ota one Land to lie other, the clicking wfes.Leard again.' This alarmed him to sack a degree that he ran off some . distance, moving his troublesome pet np and down, op and down,, talking to himself the whue4 After doing , this soma half dozen times he came - back, thankedrtme for 'myTtrOable, re ceived his. ticket and change, aod Baikal raniril foniJ tKa train v -r Uy saspioioBs i wen . aroused. Was I not a detective Waa it not my daty. to follow this man -worm his secret from bim and ar rest him f Had I not read ef per sons who went , about Jritb infernal machines ready to blow up booses f This was evidently a case of ''in fernal machine.". This man, not withstanding his pare accent, was plainly a foreigner an anarchist. He did net want any one to hear the working of bis deadly machine. Besides, the box, satchel or valise or. whatever yoa might call it, was a queer affair too queer to be passed by, I determined to shadow him. When he had arranged his tor pedo, or whatever it was, to bis satisfaction, nnder his seat in the car, he proceeded to go asleep im mediately. That looked suspicious he did not want to talk, and thus feigned sleep. I watched him all the way to Goldsboro; bat could advance no further in my investi gations. At uoldsboro be bought a ticket for Baleigh so did I. He went through the same careful manipu lations with his precious baggage, as before. 1 wanted to telegraph to some one in Baleigh to look out for this man : but I knew no one there. So I took oat my instruc tions from Wax, which I considered my credentials as a detective, and looked at them. I concluded tbat 1 had full authority to arest ray sallow faced fellow traveller the moment he should do anything worthy of a conspirator. But he weet to sleep, tbe moment he bad arranged bis clicking machine under his seat on the N. C. train. On arrival in Baleigh, he would not ride to tbe hotel, although it was raining hard and there is mud in Baleigh so I trudged on behind him, a hundred yards or so, very grumbliagly. I began to think tbat the life of a detective was a very hard one. As soon as be struck Fayetteville street (the rascal seemed to know all about the town) he tnrned np towards the capital. Be then walked quite briskly no til he reached Fasracb's jewelry store. I walked np rapidly and entered the store close behind him. 'Mr. Fasrach.l says he, "here's yonr blamed old Swias clock that you wanted me to get for yoa in Beaufort. It has been a beapot trouble and would run in spite of all tbat I could do and you told me not to wind it np." I am not a detective now. - f I Absolutely Pure. Ttale pewdar never win.
