officers and reporters have discover
ed a new class known as "court
funs" and these devotees of sensa
tional testimony are running neck

energetic baseball fan, and the
qniet, but eager, "movie" fan. Of
late they have been having their
full share of "snappy" cases, tak
ing In each .performance of the fa
mous "Toodlee" Ryan breach of
promise suit, the Herrick-Waitt
ct.se, where a young wife's love got
mixed up with the wrong man, the
F'llrfield-Fitzpatrick tangle. Now
t'icy have all assembled to hoar

The "court fans" have a little on

However, it appears they wllll soon

The Town of Bushire.
Residents of a miserable seaport on
the Persian gulf called their town Bu
shire (Boosheer). It has narrow, dirty,
ill paved streets. The city is visited
by earthquakes and simoons and stints
its children of wholesome air and fresh
water, it appears, however, to kave
enjoyed high repute among the nntient
Elamites. who have left buried about
under rnoldering heaps bricks with
cuneiform inscriptions, in summer the
citizens of Bushire live in a heat that
is almost unbearable.
A Popinjay
By MARGARET C. DEVEREAUX
Two men were standing on a street
corner chatting. They were both
crooks, though professionally they had
no connection. A dapper young fel
low who looked as If he had Just come
out of a bandbox passed them.
"Who Is that guy r" asked one crook.
"Hist!" said' the other, and waited
till the young man bad got beyond
hearing; then he added: "That's a Pin
kerton. 1 run across him ouct lie's
the slickest in the business. I'd knew
him through any makeup."
"What's he doin' here?" asked the
other nervously.
"I reckon he's workin' 011 the Tenth
National bank business. I've been let
Into it that the best men In the Pinker
ton service are on that case."
"Come off, Tom; you're coddin' me."
"You needn't believe me, Kill, if you
don't want to. I've only given you
what 1 think anyway."
The crook who had received this in
formation tried to look unconcerned,
but the other noticed that be was very
much concerned. Rill walked away,
and Tom looked after him with evident
amusement. "What a sucker:" he
said to himself. "1 believe he had
something to do with that bank Job or
he wouldn't have bit so suddeut. lie's
a green one. The idea o' that popin
jay bein' n detective!" And lie smotli
ered a laugh.
That same afternoon Hill met the
popinjay again on the street. Bill
looked at him so hard that lie attracted
the other's attention. This was prob
ably the reason why he looked hard at
Bill. At any rate Bill shuddered and
passed on.
"He's on to mo. sure!" lie muttered
"I wouder If I could pet uiit o' town
without his knowin' it I'm goin' to
try a makeup."
When the 7 o'clock train pulled out
of the station an elderly countryman
with a pair of old fashioned green gog
gles on his nose sat In a seat by him
self looking as If he had just come
from the haying Held. The door at the
frout end of tiie car opened, and who
should come in but the popinjay. The
only seat va<ant was by the farmer,
and the newcomer took it. The farm
er's eyes being covered by the goggles
and the lower part of his face by a
long white beard, no one could see the
contortions of his countenance. Pres
ently he pulled himself together and
said in a low tone to the man beside
him:
"What is there in It for me If I give
up the stuff?"
"What stuff?" asked the other, sur
prised.
"Oh, I'm on to you same as you're on
to me. No need o' fencin'. If 1 put
yon on to where the money is hid will
you let me out o' the game?"
The stranger turned, looked the
speaker full in the face, surprise, curi
osity. craft and a number of other ex
pressions struggling for the mastery.
Finally he said:
"Can you turn it over without the
matter leaking out?"
"I can."
"Do you want to go anywhere?"
"Reckon I'd like to try South Amer
ica for awhile."
"IIow much would you need?"
"How much can you let me have?"
"How much money have you to turn
over?"
"All that was taken."
The popinjay was stalled. He didn't
like to ask what he was supposed to
know. He concluded to take a risk.
"Would five hundred do?"
"If you can't do any better."
"Very well. Where do we get off?"
"At Winchester."
There was no further conversation
between the two till they reached Win
chester, where they left the train to
gether.
"Far?" asked the popinjay as they
stood on the platform.
"About two miles."
"Cab!"
A station cabman drove up: the two
got in and were driven beyond the out
skirts of the town, stopping at n small
house in bad repair. A woman came
to the door, followed by several chil
dren whose faces peered from behind
her. The crook had thrown off his dis
guise while In the cab and appeared ns
himself. The woman looked from one
man to the other anxiously. Bill said
to her: "I've got tired o' this business.
I'm goin* to give up the stuff and take
you and the children to a new country
to make a new beginnin'."
"I'm mighty glad o' that," gasped the
woman. "I'm d.vin' with this load on
me."
Going into the house, Bill went to the
cellar and brought up a package, which
be handed to the popinjay, who open
ed it and, finding a number of bank
bills, counted out a thousand dollars
and handed It back to Bill.
'1 thought you made it $500."
"I didn't know you were going to
begin over with your wife and chil
dren. There's $500 for you and $500
for them. I'm no detective. You gave
yourself away to me needlessly. Our
meeting on the train was a coinci
dence. I'm a millionaire. I shall take
'.his money to the bank and restore it.
.neludlng what I've given you. If you
need help at any time let me know."
He wrote his address on his card and
was driven away, followed by many
a "God bless you."
