All A Mistake By EDWARD ¢. HANCOCK ¢ ". "ng I reached mv destination at eleven o'clock at night, was driven Yo the L hotel, was shown to my room and went to bed The next morning 1 did not return- to the room after breakfast, but did so at 'roon. An important mutter of business absorbed iny attention, and | was unmindful of everything else. My key did not work in the lock; but, turning the knob, the door opened. I concluded that either f or the maid who had put the room in order had left it unlocked. Still thinking on other matters I saw on the mantel a package "done up in paper. It was about three in- ches long by two broad and an inch thick. At another time I wpuld have examined it; but, with my mind full of business, 1 concluded it to be one of a number of small packages | had taken out of my suit case when making my toilet in the morning, so I put it in fy coatpocket. Going to the stand to wash hands I discovered lying on it ring set with two large diamonds. I dropped my business matter and fixed my attention on the ring. Then I looked abo: the room There was a trunk in if that was not mine. A wardrobe stood open. and 1 eould see within articls of woman's ap- parel. I had got iato the wrong room. Had the ring not thus been expos- ed I would have simply retired. As it was, il 1 should be seen leaving the room and a thief should appro- priate the jewellery I would be suse pected of having stolen it. 1 con- cluded to take it to the office. As | was Jeaving to da so I met a lady about to enter. She looked at me, flushed and excited and asked "What were you doing in room "* Before called a said "Hold room and ing." She ran into room while porter kept me under observation. "It's gone," 1 heard her sav, coming out, she told the porter that she had left a diamond ring on the washstand and I had taken it, "Pygrdon me," [ said. "I got the wrong room. 1 found vour on the washstand and was taking to the office. Here it is." "That's a likely story," said porter. We three went to the office, where my explanation was listened to with evident distrust. But the voung lady, having secured hér ting, was not mind ed to press the matter, and it was dropped, but not for long In half an hour, while I was sitting near the -hotel entrance, a policeman entered. the clerk pointed to me; and I was taken into custody. Iwas led to the police answer to a charge of robbery fortunately having evidences of pro- perty with me, was enabled to give bail for my appearance the next day. Returning to the hotel I asked the clerk why the matter was to be push- ed. He replied that the lady had missed something else--she would not say what-and it had made her very angry. I tried to think of some thing I had misappropriated besides the ring, but cou remember ~ no- thing. Later, upon putting my hand in my pocket for my handkerchief, took out the little package I had found on the mantel. | went to my room----my own room this time--un- covered the packagh and displayed a bundle of letters, Having convinced myself from the address on one of them that they were not mine I wrapped them up again and put them back in my pocket I made up my mind that there was a story in these letters which was run- ning counter to the. story of my hav- ing inadvertently come into possession of them. I was to be tried for steal ing the ring and perhaps would not be able to prove my innocense. In- deed, appearances were much against me. Might not these letters be used to induce the lady to withdraw her charge ? | had no sooner thought of this than [ took them to the office of an acquaintance and put them in his safe. did not wish them to be re . covered 'by search, As soon as 1 had done this 1 wrote my accuser a note telling her that 1 had inadvertently appropriated Hrome letters belonging to her and that "she might have them by withdrawing her charge against me. She had become so sure that I was a professional thief that she wrote buck stating that she would withdraw. the charge and give mu $500 for the letters. | wrote her that I did not ask money for the let- ters and that she was welcome to them if she would withdraw her charge against me. To this she acceded, nnd mstead of ing some ome to me with an order for them she appointed a meeting with me in one of the hotel parlors, did not propose to be oui: done by a woman, so I left the letters where | had put them. | We met as agreed. The lady was not ov twenty-four years and ite comely. She was evidently class and had wounded by mot recognizing i{ social equal instead of mis- for a thief. She opened the negotiations, - ! es "Are you a tool of George Norton ¥* she asked ly. 5 "I haven't pleasure of the gen- tleman's acquaintance." "You must have seen his name on the letters.

Windsor, Ont sustained a great ;oss in the desth, a few days ago, of "Sandy" Bartlett, who for over halt 8 century was its police magistrate. In the best sense of the 'erm he was "boss of the t "-and wherever he went ip W pecple never dream- ed of questioning his authority, even though he might be dealing with mat- ters that did not come within the range of his duties as magistrate, He brought to bear on his work cool, calculating common sense, and often brushed aside technicalities to justice. Many a time he imposed a fine and then promptly paid it out of his own pocket; be gave a great of a term in jail, and he would never separate man and wife if he could ar- range a reconciliation. Newspapermen of Windsor and De- troit well remember "Sandy" and his advice. Bome six or Seven years ago, on one -of the occasion when a num- ber of them had remained in police court after the session of the court, the venerable magistrate gave advice to some of them who were smoking. smoke," he said. "It's bad business. I never smoked in my life." Some of the reporters stuck up for their smoking, but he said, "No, it's harmful, Look at Brother Wil- liam. He's just smoking himself to death--smoking himself to death." The istrate at that time was about 81 years old, 4nd "Brother Wil- liam" was then about 88. Mr. Bartlett invariably stood for British law and order in a town which is subject to "dumpings" of foreign criminals. He was deci ly severs on the latter, especially such char- acters as entered upon matrimonial adventures, regardless of former ties in the "States." On one occasion there was brought before, him an en- terprising gentleman, who had taken Windsor, with a view to marrying "as lady of means." His ingratiating manner brought him success in this undertaking, when it. was discovered that more than one wife awaited him in vain in the "Land of the Some- STORIES. | |- papers, { stops { not heard until, fresh from their holi- | | number of men good advice instead i what Free and the more-or-less Brave Life became rather Tn | ous for the foreign gentleman, who | finally found himself in the police | court under the searching eyes «f | Mr. Bartlett.

"This is no free country," objected | | | | the prisoner, "Not for such as you," said the mag- istrate, with a grim set of his Scottish | jaws, "Well," said the dejected one per sistently, as he was led away, "I want to know how soon 1 can get married after I am out." But the magistrate was too disgust- ed at this failure to appreciate the any reply. Canadians With Mrs. Eddy. It will be of interest to Canadians to know that two of the chief lieuten- ants of the late Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy and men who helped to make Canadians. Mr. Archibald McLellan, chairman of the board, had the confidence of Mrs. Eddy, who, despite Her deeper interest in spiritual matters, had a knowledge of the world which made her an excellence judge of men. He is also the editor of the Christian Science publications issued in Boston Mr. McLellan was born in New P-unswick in 1857 and when a boy went to Boston. He was admitted to the Bar in Chicago. Mr McLel- lan became actively identified with the Christian Sdience movement in 1895 and since 1907 he and Gen. H. M Baker have been trustees of the pro- perty of Mrs. Eddy. Mr. Adam H. Dickey, private sec- retary to Mrs. Eddy and a director, t most of his life in Kansas City, o. He was born in Toronto. Ont., on June 26, 1864, and received his education in the model schools of that city. In 1881 he went to Kansas City. He was converted to Christian Science in 1897, retired from the manufacturing company and in 1809 bécame a Christian Science healer. At that time the Scientists had no charch in Kansas City and Mr. Die. key was influential in building up aith.. Mrs Eddy summoned him to Boston three Years ago and offered him the place ich he accept- od. Her last official act was to re- commend his appointment to the board, ---------- Last Sessions' Record. Last session of the Ontario Legisla- ture opened on Jan. 25 and was pro- rogued on March 19. The session a year ago was marked by five divisions and the passage of 168 bills. The leg- islation included the extension to To. ronto of power to construct a tube system of railways, also the right to construct surface street railway ex- tensions. The passage iby acclamation of the Ontario Telephone Act was one of the notable achievements of 'the ses. sion. There is every indication that the session which will open soon will far. nish further proof of the progressive development and public ownership policy of the Whitney 'administration.

Sir Charles Townshend, Chief Jus. tice of the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia since 1907, who is one of Can. ada's new Knights 'Bachelor, was born arch 20nd, 1844, at Amherst NS. @ is the son of Rev. Towns hend, rector of Christ's Church. He was educated at King's oa ¥ Windsor, and was called to Bar in 1566. He was elected MPP. for Cumberland County in 1578 and 1882 From 1887 to 197 Sir Charles was judge of the Supreme Court of Nova Seotia. ------------ Winnipeg's Population.

Commons and Senate Get a Thorough "Rubbing Up" at Christmas. During long adjournments sueh as for the Christmas and New Year holi- days, the Parliamentary precinets wear an unusual aspect. The lobbies re given over to charwomen; lordly messengers take possession of Room 1 e Liberal headquarters, read the and puff Laurier cigars. All the machinery of the big building 5, and the hum of the wheels is lay festivities, the members troop in from 'the cities and back concessions, and go through the motions of work once more until the May flowers bloom on the hill. In the Senate the cleaners have again been at work dur- the past few days. In the main corridor, where hang the gil paintings of Speakers of the Upper House who 'have gone before, the whirling wheels of the sweeper have been busily en- gaged in sucking thé dust from the red carpet. The gorgecus frames which surround the features of the old-timers in ! have becn furbished up, and an evi: dent attempt made to make the Red Chamber and its surroundings lose their previous "morgue-like" appear- ance. One casualty has been report- ed. An energetic washerwoman, whi was soaping the lion and the unicorn on the top of the throne, usel the el- bow grease so vigorously that she broke off the uniogrn's tail: There was a council of war; old John Carle- ton, who has been the major domo of the Senaté ever since thera was such an institution, had a long con- ference with the carpenter downstairs, who used to be a ship liner on an Allan cattle ship, and between the | two they managed to glue on the tail.

Severe Sentence When He Likes. Whenever Judge Morgan take charge of the county criminal ease : there is an outery from the police and other pefsons who think too much leniency does more harm than good. The judge never imposes a sentence unless he cannot possibly help it, so thieves and shoplifters like to go before him. His white hair an i his flowing white beard are a wel- come sight to any one who has a story which 'will touch his kindy heart, and one little child sized him up very accurately a few weeks ago. A case was being tried, and a little girl who had come to court.with her mother sat for a long time and wateh- ed the judge intently. Then she saji to her mdther, "Do you think I can go up and whisper to Santa Claus There are times, however, when th judicial Santa Claus shows his sev ity.
