A Happy Party.
THE man departed and tftw fa

passengers, two of them unmle
tnkubly Mrs. Green and Mr.
Clair, the ether a United Slatea fed
eral officer. Mrs. Green was decor^tsd
with a handkerchief, which waa tied
over her mouth.
"I bad to gag the dame.? explained
the marshal. "She kept yelling all lie
time."
The look which the disheveled lad/
In the red ball gown cast upon Oncle
Sam's representative probably burned
a hole in his aura which will never
heal up.
".Remove the gag," the revenop offi
cer commanded.
"Walt." Vlc'.a requested; "watt until

That was a wonderful Inspiration on
Vida's part As the two women had
never sot eyes on each other before.
Mis. Green mlfcht not address Vl^a
as her own otfjprins as soon as tie
power of speech was restored to her.
"If you say s1:? Is your mother It Ifl

"Let him go, then," the revenue mcuo
directed.
"i don't want to be released."
"Yon .have to be." The officer p
leneed hkn sternly.
"How about the telephone man?"
Cochran, the marshal. inquired. "I've
got to get one prisoner anyway, or I
won't dare show up In Detroit*
"We'll arrest him, nil right," the oth
er reassured him. "He's on the island
somewhere. It's only a question
searching. Now, gentlemen," tnmlpg
to us, "it will save any unpleasantness

Is in the employ of the telephone cajp

all of you who cannot prove wife jftia

There was no answer. No ooe of M
was anxious to turn informer.
"I bare a description of Horace
Binns," said the officer, "although
present ho Is traveling under tb« hum
of Kent. Height, five feet four iaebe«j
slender, dark hair and eyes"—
"Excuse me," Interrupted JBojip.
"What are you going to do with ttw
smuggler when you get him?"'
"We shall have to take him to
trolt and thence to the federal prlion
at Leavenworth, Kan."
"Will you give him a square
Boiip asked anxiously.
"Why, yes," smiled the officer. ."JSPe

With a wink to the rest at ns, Bopp

When the boat was being rowed

"Don't worry," be reeaiured us. *1
