We say this continually but when told weather comes out comes with it Ijhe purse and the brim ming dish for those who have brought themselves to destitution with their eyes open The fact is that the idle and irresponsible class bot i white and coloredrest in the belief that the charity of the public will step in and save them from starvation IfSve would unite and make publicaQ1 nountem nt that no one will bel given or loaned money food fuell or clothes who will not accept work this mnmer and then a record of every such makeI refusal the result might be a good many idlers to work Could not a

comfortable home Another farmer in the neighborhood has let his oats another crops rot oh the ground for l ckofmen People who have no income must beg or steal if they will not work andit is evident that there are hundreds of men and women in and around Lexington who will be beggars or thieves before next spring If employers would organize and keep a register of them which anyone could consult at anytime these vagrants would soon learn that their choice lies between starvation the jailor workhouse and honest labor PREDERICKSTOWN It has been quite awhile since I read any news from our quiet and

Disobeyed Orders The men on the train who escaped injury worked as well as they could without tools to save life and limb and the residents in the sparsely settled vicinity soon arrived to help The

FourA Study In Scarlet Eta The Adventure of- flouethe Empty oRcHTED I listened with amazement to this ex planation which Holmes delivered between the putts of his cigarette 4Butthe tracks I cried I saw- With my own eyes that two went down the path and none returned It came about in this way The in stant that the professor had disap geared It struck me what a really ex traordlnarily lucky chance fate had placed in my way I knew that Mori arty was not the only man who had sworn my death There were at least three others whose desire for vengeance upon me would only be Increased by the death of their leader They were all most dangerous men One or other would certainly get me On the other hand If all the world was convinced that I was dead they would take liter ties these men they would soon lay themselves open and sooner or later I bej1lmerapidIlyhad thought this all out before Professor Moriarty had reached the bottom of the Reichenbach fall roch71Wallwith great Interest some months later you assert that the wall was sheer SHERLOCK HOLMES WAS That was not literally true A few b small footholds presented themselves mid there was some Indication of a ledge The cliff is so high that to climb it all was an obvious impossibility and it was equally impossible to make 4 my way along the wet path without leaving some tracks I might It is true have reversed my boots as I have done on similar occasions but the sight of three sets of tracks in one direction could certainly have suggested U d- ecptIon On the whole then it was best that I should risk the climb It was not a pleasant business Watson The fall roared beneath me Iam not a fanciful person but I give you my word that I seemed to hear Morlartys voice screaming at me out of the abyss A mistake would have been fatal More than once as tufts of grass came out in my hand or my foot slipped in the wet notches of the rock I thought that I was gone But I struggled upward and at last 1 reached a ledge several feet deep and covered with soft greet moss where I could lie un see lJithe most perfect comfort There I was stretched when you my dear Watson and all your following were Investigating In the most sympathetic and Inefficient manner the circumstances of my death At last when you had all formed your inevitable and totally erroneous conclusions you departed for tie hotel and I was left alone I had imagined that I had reached tbq end of my adventures but a very unexpected occur rence showed me that there were sur prises still in store for me A huge rock falling from above boomed past me struck the path uud bounded over Into the chasm For an instant I thought that It wq an accident but a ILLUSTRATED BY F D STEELE f omoment later looking up I saw a mans head against the darkening sky and another stone struck the very ledge upon which I was stretched within a foot of my head Of course the meaning of this was obvious Mo riarty had not been alone A confeder ate and even that one glance had told jne how dangerous a man that confed erate was had kept guard while the professor had attacked me From a distance unseen by me he had been u witness qf his friends death and of my escape He had waited and then making his way around to the top of the cliff he had endeaore to succeed where his comrade had failed did not take long to think about it Watson Again I saw that grim face lookoyer the cliff and I knew that it Wet the precursor of another stone I scrambled down on to the path I aont think I could have done it in cold blood It was a hundred times more difficult than getting up But I had no time to think of the danger for an othej stone sang past me us I hung by my hands from the edge of the ledge Halfway down I slipped but by the blcsshiJof God I landed torn and bleeding upon the path I took to my heels did ten miles over the moun talus In the darkness and a week later I found myself in Florence with the certainty that no one in tie world knew what had become of m I had only one confidant ny broth er Mycroft I owe you many apologies my dear Watson but it was all important that It should be thought I was dead and it Is quite certain that you would not have written so convincing an account of my unhappy end had you STANDING SMILING AT ME not yourself thought that it was true Several times during the last throe years I have taken up my pun to write to you but always I feared lest your tlmptIturned away from your this evening when you upset my bvote for I wits in danger at the time unit any show of surprise and emotion upon your part might have drawn attention to my Identity and led to the most deplorable and irreparable results AM to Mycroft I had to confide in him In order to ob tain the money which I needed The course of events in London did not run so well as I had hoped for the trial of the Moriarty gang left two of Its most dangerous members my own most vin dictive enemies at liberty I traveled for two years in Tibet therefore tlnd amused myself by visjting Lassa and spending some days with the head lane You may have read of the re markable explorations of a Norwegian named Sigerson but I am sure theft it never occurred to you that you were receiving news of four friend I then passed through Persia looked In at Mecca and paid a short but interesting visit to the khalifa at Khartum the re suits of which I have communicated to the foreign office Returning to France I spent some months In a re search Into the coal tar derivatives which I conducted in a laboratory at Montpelller In the south of France Having concluded this to my satisfaction and learning that only one of my enemies was now left in London r was about to return when my movements were hastened by the rifews of this very remarkable Park lane mystery which pot pnlp appealed to me by Its own X r merits but which seemed to offer some most peculiar personal opportunities I came over at once to London called in my own person at Baker street threw Mrs Hudson Into violent hysterics and found that Mycroft had pre served my rooms and my papers exactly as tips had always been So it was my Gear Watson that at 2 oclock to day I found myself in my old arm chair In my own old room and only wishing that I could have seen my old friend Watson in the other chair which he has so often adorned narrativetoIng a narrative which would have been utterlyancredibie to me had itnot been confirmed by the actual sight of the tall spar figure and the keen ea ger face which I had never thought to see again In some manner he had learned of niy own sad bereavement and his sympathy was shown Inj his manner rather than in his words Work is the best antidote to sorrow my dear Watson said he and I have a piece of work for us both tonight which if we can bring It to a success ful conclusion will in Itself justify a mans life on this planet In vain I begged him to tell me more You will hear and see enough before morning he answered We have three years o the past to discuss Let that suffice un tip half past 9 when we start upon the notable adventure of the empty house It was indeed like old times when at that hour I Mound myself jftateil beside him ina hansom my revolver in my pocket and the thrill ot adventure in my heart Holmes was olllIUllI stern and silent jAs the gleam of the street lamps flashed upon his austere features I saw that his brows were drawn down m thought attd his thin lips compressed I knew not what wild beasts we were aboutto hunt down in the dark jungle of criminal London hut I was well assured from the bearing of this inaster huntsman that the adventure was a most graveone while the sardonic smile which occasionally broke through his ascetic gloom boded little gcjod for the object qf our quest I had Imagined that we were bound for Baker street but Holmes stopped the cab at the corner of Cavendish square I Observed that as he stepped out he gave a most searching glance to right and left and at every subsequent street corrifer he took the utmost pains to assure that he was not followed OUr route vas certainly a singular one Holmes knowledge of the byways of London was extraordinary and oii this occasion he1 passed rapidly and with an assured step through a network of mews and stables the very existence of which I Ihfd never known We emerged at last into a small road lined with old gloomy houses which led up into Manchester street and so to Bland ford street Here he turned swiftly down a narrow passage passed through a wooden ute Into a deserted yawl anti then opened with a key the back door of a housq We entered together and lie closed ft behind us The place wily pitch dark but It was emptyhouseover the bare planking and my out stretched jlinhd touched a wall from which the paper was hanging in rib bons tnln fingers closed around 1wrist and led me forward donn a lopg hall until I dimly saw the murky Yap light over the door Here i Holmes turned suddenly to the right und we found ourselves In a large square einjHy room heavily shadowed In the earners but faintly lit In the center from the lights of the street beyond There was no lamp near anti the window was thick with dusjtso that we Mould only Just discenreach others fl Lures within My companion put his land upon my shoulder and his lips close tp my ear uDo you know where we nrer he whlsperedt Surely hJlltbr Baker street I an swered

window taking every precaution ot to show yourself aril then to look up at our old room the starting point of so many of your little fairy tales We will see It my three years oj absence have entirely taken away iny power to surprise y Ou I crept forward and looked across at the familiar window As my eyes fell upon It I gave n gash and a cry of amazement The bllhtl was down and a sttinitg light was burning In the room The shadow of a man who was seated In a diuln within was thrown In hard lack outline upon the hurl nous sere m of the window Thire was no mistaking the poise of the head the
