gj JtOA. N the summer, many years
P ~y )c ago, Colonel Kenyon, n
O <i O young son or L.ora j\enyou,
ft x J5 was cruising in a small
"WOW yacht off the coast of Irej^^yand,
when he was overtaken by a sudHp^n
storm, the little craft capsized, and
S^Ball-his companions were drowned. Color
one! Kenyon himself was washed
ashore in a half dying condition, in j
R ,which state he was discovered by a
ft fisherman. The man, instead of offerW
ing any assistance to the unfortunate :
SB * colonel, set to work to plunder him.
IWhen his unhappy victim partially reB|
.vived the robber struck him over the j
. bead with a heavy club, finished rifling
? his person, and left him for dead. j
The booty obtained from the person ]
&?Mof the colonel, and from his baggage, 1
jBg^Mieh had washed ashore, consisted of ]
very rare and valuable jewelry, t

I Late in the afternoon of an autumn .
lay a rough-looking man, clothed in ]

Bely inn in the North of England, and ]
fcnanded lodgings for the night. The \

It this display of wealth the Inn- <
kper's eyes sparkled, and the stran- '

A apparent that the traveler was '<
p of his tod, and the humor was 1
Killed to its full extent, so that when 1
[retired he immediately fell into a !
Ivy slumber, which was not easily 1
lurbed. '
lie sight of the stranger's gold had ]
kI the cupidity of the innkeeper, and'
'sooner had the man retired than 1
began to speculate on the surest j
1 safest means of possessing him- '
f of the gold. Robbery alone was
ended with danger, for the plunWl
virtim -would undoubtedly call
Ie authorities to his assistance, and
prisliment would be almost certain; (
, acting upon the principle that "dead ,
eu tell no tales," he finally resolved J

e and a little daughter, but six ,

the completeness of his terror,

for the murderous steel -was driven to
Ihe heart, and with a few convulsive
crasps he expired.
His pockets and a bundle which he
bad carried were quickly emptied of
whatever they contained of value, the
l?ody was wrapped in the bloody bednrwl
hnriod in the vard. and the
stains iu the room carefully washed
away. In the morning lie expressed
great surprise and indignation at the
traveler's sudden disappearance, accusing
him not only of escaping without
the payment of his bill, but alsp with
having stolen the bedclothes, and even
enacted the farce of a pursuit. His
wife, however was not without her sus-1
picions, and when the booty was:
brought out little by little, she had
no doubt her fears were well founded,
and if her sudden death by poison had
not prevented she might have made the
crime public.
The sum secured from the person and
effects of the murdered man was over
?500 in gold and rich and rare jewelry
worth from ?500 to ?000 more.
It was about ten years after his mishap
on the coast when Colonel Kenyou
returned to England. On one occasion,
as he was traveling through the north
ern part of the country, and night coming
on, he "was compelled to seek accommodations
at a country Inn.
He was waited upon by a pleasant,
talkative girl, about sixteen years of
age, who was dressed with more neatness
than usually characterized females
of her class.
"While being served, the Colonel noticed
a peculiar charm she wore about
her neck. and. on obtaining her permission
to examine it, he was struck witb
the greatest astonishment at the discovery
that it was one of the jewels
of which he had been robbed ten years
before, and still had his engraved
monogram upon it.
His first impulse was to seize It. declare
the crime, and demand of whom
she had obtained the stolen property;
but he controlled himself and began
to joke her about the trinket, saying he
supposed it must have been preseuted
by a lover. This she denied, but he
appeared unwilling to accept her denial,
and finally asked who gave it to
her. if not her lover. She replied that
it "was presented to her by Her tatner,
many years ago.
Colonel Kenyon expressed himself satisfied
and dropped the subject; in fact,
however, he was far from being satisfied,
and as soon as the meal was over
lie made his way to the nearest magistrate,
and placed the matter in the
bands of the authorities.
Early the next morning the Sheriff
made his appearance, and father and
3aughter were both, placed under arrest.
A search of the premises brought
to light several articles of jewelry
which the Colonel identified beyond a
shadow of doubt
The innkeeper was then examined,
ind at first denied all knowledge of the
?oods, or that he ever gave his daugiu
ter the charm which had firf*: attracted |
Colonel Kenyon's attention; but when
ii& learned how fully everything had
jecn identified, he became greatly
frightened, and finally confessed the

found as originally buried. The man

The Awfnl Climate of Aden.
A letter which recently appeared In
Jie Morning Post of Delhi throws a
lurid light upon the effects of the
:limate at Aden. The term of service
at Aden for the Indian departments
lias hitherto been two years; but the
Indian Inspector-General of Ordnance
las lately reduced the term to one year
for his department. This Is said to be
lue to tlie constant breaking down In
health of men employed at Aden, and
he consequent heavy charges to the
government for invaliding them and
:heir families. The object of the letter
above referred to is to suggest, that
tvhat is sauce for the Indian department
is also sauce for other branches
of the servicfe, and he mentions iccilentally
that no less than thirteen families
of the Hampshire regiment had
:o be invalided home from Aden within
three months of their arrival there.
Another interesting fact, mentioned on
the authority of a royal engineer officer,
i^that the climate of Aden causes
'iron and bricks to crumble away in
i short space of time," from which the
inference is that human constitutions
;omnosed of any more perishable ma- j
terial than iron and brick must crumble
iway in a still shorter period. It
would be a very good thing if the
terra of service at Aden for all arms
ind departments were reduced to
twelve or, at the outside, eighteen
months. This, by the way, is the station
to which the Second Royal Dublin
Fusiliers were despatched to recuperate
after the hardships of their service
in South Africa, and, in spite of protests
from all directions, the Government
still persists in keeping them
there.?Truth.
Mnslc Heard in Moro.
Moro music is strangely unrhythmical
to European ears, says a writer in
Everybody's Magazine. It consists
mainly of a monotonous reiteration of
sound, even a supposed change of air
being almost imperceptible to an ear
unaccustomed to the barbarous lack
jf tone. The Moro piano is a wooden
frame shaped like the runners of a
.'hilu's sled, on which small kettle-!
Ir'ums aye balanced by menus of eordsl
ind sticks laid horizontally. These,
rather resemble pots ior uie Kiicuru
range than musical instruments, but
?aeli' is roughly tuned, forming the
sight notes of the scale. Women
2rourhing on the ground before this
instrument beat out a wailing sound
from ii with shaped sticks, while from
larger kettle-drums, hung by ropes
from a woodeu railing at one side, two
men accompanied the piano, and one
old woman in the background drummed
out an independent air of her own on
an empty tin pan.
The Use of Hinder Twine.

designs here given offer a wide variety
and are all graceful and smart. In
addition to being ornamental they can
often be made to serve the double end
of modernizing a bodice that has become
slightly passe, as they can be
relied upon to gn>e the broad-shouldered
effect demanded by fashion.
No. 1 is made in handkerchief style
and falls in deep points, the fullness
formins folds which give an effect of
pleats.
No. 2 is circular and elongated at
the front to form the stoles that are so
much liked, and is extended over the
shoulders.
No. 3 is simply circular and falls
in soft ripples at its lower edge.
As illustrated, they are all made from
lace, finished with bands of batiste
fancy stitched, but various other materials
are equally appropriate. No. 1
is cut in two pieces and can be made
to close at the shoulders or at both
front and back. No. 2 closes at the
front. No. 3 closes at the front as il

'Runsian Coat With Box Tleat*.
Long coats are much in vogue and

rs well adapted both to the entire suit
Ind the general wrap. The model is
?ade of black taffeta stitched with
jorticelli silk, but all coat and suit
materials both silk and wool are equally
appropriate.
The coat consists of a blouse portion,
that is made with applied box pleats
it front and back and is fitted by
means of shoulder and under-arm
seams, and the skirt which is attached
hereto beneath the belt. The skirt
Includes applied pleats that lorm continuous
lines with the blouse and is
laid in inverted pleats at the centre
back, which provide graceful fullness.
The right front laps over the left to
finst? in double-breasted style beneath
the edge of the pleat. The sleeves are
box pleated from the elbows to the
shoulders, so providing the snug fit
required by fashion, but form full
puffs at the wrists where they are finished
by flare cuffs.
The quantity of material required for
the medium size is six and a hair

forty-four inches wide or four

Pleated Skirts For Tall Wear.
Pleated skirts will be popular for
fall wear, and with them tvill be worn
the long coat which has been so successful
for a season or two. Long
skirts will be relegated more and more
for formal and dress occasions, while
the just-off-the-ground skirt will be
adopted for matinee, walking, shopping,
clubs and similar occasions. The

at least collars will be reduced to a
mere band at the back, fading Into
nothingness at the front. Sleeves, they
say, will show less of the pouch effect
at the wrist and more fullness
at the.shoulder. For tailor made gar- 1
rnents of the severe style the plain, t
old-fashioned coat sleeves, finished x
at the wrist with a narrow turn back ^
cuff or rows of stitching, will be de }
rigueur. To put a fussy, dressy sleeve
on an otherwise plain garment is an ?
artistic mistake.
A New Wedding Bouquet. *
a now /loaifrn for a bououet for a s
wedding is known as the butterfly
bow bouquet. The flowers and foliage
of the bouquet are put together with
seeming carelessness, yet gracefully,
while nestling among the flowers is
a large butterfly bow of twisted chiffon
or tulle. The bow terminates in long,
flowing ends, over and among which
are falling flowers and tendrils of light
foliage. A few flowers also finish off
the ends of the bows. The effect of
the flowers nestling against the soft
chiffon or tulle is exceedingly pretty.
