CHAPTER XX.
APTAIN JESSOP ate as
greedily as he drank strong
waters and did full justice
to the curry, which was really
excellent. Hurd did not broach any
unpleasant topic immediately, as he
wished the man to enjoy his meal.
If Jessop was guilty, this dainty din-
ner would be the last of its kind he
would have for many a long day.
Moreover, Hurd wished to learn more
of the mariner's character and plied
him with questions, which the unsus-
peseing sailor answered amiably
e..iugh.
"Int an' you might become mates, as
1: were," said Jessop, extending his
,ge hand again and again. "Put it
x. Au."
"Well, we'd want to know something
more about one another to become real
mates," laughed Hurd.
"Oh, you're a commercial traveler,
as you say, and I'm the captain of as
fine a barkey as ever sailed under Cap-
ricorn. Leastways I was, afore I gave
up deep sea voyages."
"You must miss the ocean, living at
Stowley."
"Inland it is," admitted the mariner,
pulling out a dirty clay pipe at the con-
clusion of the meal, "and ocean there
ain't round about fur miles. But I've
got a shanty there and live respecta-
ble."
"You are able to, with the standby,"
hinted Hurd.
Jeasop nodded and crammed black
tobacco, very strong and rank, into
the bowl of his pipe with a shaking
hand. "It ain't much," he admitted,
"folks being stingy. But if I wants
more," he struck the table hard, "I
can got it. D'ye see, Mister Commer-
cial?"
"Yes, I see," replied Hurd coolly.
Jessop was again growing cross, and
the detective had to be careful. He
knew woll enough that next morning,
when sober, Jessop would not be so
disposed to talk, but being muzzy he
opened his heart freely. Still, it was
evident that a trifle more liquor would
make him quarrelsome, so Hurd pro-
posed coffee, a proposition to which
the sailor graciously assented.
"Cawfoe," he observed, lighting his
pipe and filling the room with evil
smelling smoke, "clears the 'ead, not
as mine wants clearing, mind you. But
cawfee ain't bad, when rum aiu't t' be
'ad."
"You'll have more rum later," hinted
Hurd.
"Put it there," said Jessop, and again
the detective was forced to wince at
the strong grip of a horny hand.
Miss Junk appeared in answer to the
tinkle of the bell and removed the
food. Afterward she brought in cof-
fee, hot and strong and black, and
Jessop drank two cups, with the result
that he became quieter. Then the two
men settled down for a pleasant con-
versation. At least. Jessop thought so,
for he frequently expressed the friend-
liest sentiments toward his host. Then
Matilda appeared with a bottle of rum,
a kettle and two glasses. When she
Ieparted, Hurd intimated that he would
not require her services again that
night. This he whispered to her at
the door, while Jessop was placing the
kettle on the fire, and before returning
to his seat he quietly turned the key.
So he had the mariner entirely to him-
self and got to business at once while
the kettle boiled.
"You have known this place for
years, I believe," said Hurd, taking
a chair opposite to that of Jessop.
"Did you ever drop across a man who
used to live here called Lemuel
Krill?"
The other man started. "Whatever
makes you arsk that?" he inquired
in a husky voice.
"Well, you see, as a commercial I
trade in books, and had to do with a
secondhand bookseller in Gwynne
street, Drury lane. It seems that he
was murdered," and he eyed Jessop
attentively.
Tho sailor nodded and composed
himself with a violent effort. "Yes,"
said he in his husky voice, "so I
heard. But what's he got to do with
Lemuel Krill?"
"Oh," said Hurd carelessly, "it is
said Aaron Norman was Krill"
"Might ha' bin. I don't know my-
self," was the gruff reply.
"Ah! Tben you did not know Lem-
uel Krill?"
"Well," 'admitted the captain reluc-
tantly, "I did. He wos the landlord
of this here pub and a cuss to drink.
Lor', 'ow he could drink and did too.
But he run away from his wife as
used to keep this shanty, and she
never heard no more of him."
"Until she found he was rich and
could leave her five thousand a year,"
said Hurd absently; "so like a wom-
an."
"You seem to know all about it,
mister?" said the sailor uneasily.
"Yes, I read the papers. .A. queer
case that of Norman's death. I expect
it was only right lee should be stran-
gled, seeing he killed Lady Rachel
Sandal in the same way."
Jessop, resting his hands on the
arms of his chair, pushed it back and
stared with a white face. "Yon know
of that?" he gasped.
"Why not? It was public talk 116
this place over twenty years ago. I
understand you have been hereabout
for thirty years," went on Hurd care-
lessly, "possibly you may recollect the
case"
Jessop wiped bis forehead. "I heard
something about it. That there lady
committed suicide they say."
"I know what they say, but I want
to know what you say."
"I won't be arsked questions," shout-
ed the captain angrily.
"Don't raise your voice," said the de-
tective smoothly; "we may as well con
duct this conversation pleasantly."
"I don't converse no more," said Jes-
sop in a shaky voice and staggered to
his feet, rapidly growing sober under
the influence of a deadly fear. Hurd
did not move as the man crossed the
room, but felt if the key was safe in
his pocket. The sailor tried to open
the door and then realized that it was
locked. He turned on his host with
a volley of bad language and found
himself facing a leveled revolver.
"Sit down," said Hurd quietly; "go
back to your chair."
Jessop, with staring eyes .and out-
spread hands, backed to the wall.
"Who are you, anyhow?" he demand-
ed, hardly able to speak.
"Perhaps that will tell you," said
Hurd, and threw the warrant on the
tnble. Jessop staggered forward and
looked at it. One glance
was euffici sufficient
1
to inform him what it was, and he
sank back into his chair with a groan,
leaving the warrant on the table.
Hurd picked it up and slipped it into
his pocket. He thought Jessop might
destroy it, but there was no fight in
the mariner.
"And now that we understand ono
another," said Hurd, putting away his
weapon, "i want to talk."
"Sha'n't talk," said Jessop savagely.
"Oh, yes, I think so; otherwise I can
make things unpleasant for you."
"You can't arrest me. I've done PEOPLE SAID SHE HAD
nothing.
"That may be so, but arrest you I CON SU PTTOl\Ap��
can, and I have done so now. Tomer- ! 11 \a BVI 1
row morning you will go to London in
charge of a plain clothes policeman,
while I go to Stowley."
"To my crib? No, I'm blest if yon
do."
"I sha'n't go immediately to your
crib," rejoined Hurd dryly, "though I
may do so later. My first visit will be
to that old pag?broker. I think if I
describe you—and you aro rather a no-
ticeable man, Captnin Jessop—he will
recognize the individual who pawned
an opal serpent brooch with him short-
ly after the death of Lady Rachel San-
dal, to whom the said brooch be-
longed."
"It's a lie," said Jessop hoarsely, and
sober enough now.
"Quite so, and perhaps it is also a
lie that a man resembling yourself
tried to get certain jewelry from a
lawyer named Pash"—
Jessop lost his self control, which he
was trying desperately to preserve, and
rose to his feet white faced and hag-
gard. "Who are you?" be shouted,
"who aro you?"
"Doesn't the warrant tell you?" re-
plied his companion, not at all upset.
"My name is Billy Hurd. I am the
detective in charge of the Norman
murder case. I've been looking for you
for a long time, Mr. Jessop."
"I know nothing about it."
"Yes, you db; so sit down
and talk
away."
"I'll break your head " cried the cap-
tain, swinging his huge fists.
"Try"—lturd whipped out his revolv-
er,
evolt'er, but did not rise—"at the tisk of

When it has ;cached the chest, is
devoioping into bronchitis and threa-
tens to become pneumonia.
So gradually and stealthily does a
cold pass from its simpler form of a
cold in the head into inflammation of
the bronchial tubes and then on to the
lungs that many do not realize their
condition until pneumonia is upon them.
Ordinarily, of course, the cold is
thrown off, but with the system run
down and weakened there is every rea-
son to expect serious trouble.

There aro many reasons why you

seed and Turpentine, It is nroro thor-
oitgh and far-reaching in its effects on
the system than any mere cough medi-
cine can possibly be. It keeps the caliph

loge lockup -nay cool your blood. Sit

The sailor showed his teeth.like those
of a snarling dog and made as to strike
the seated detective; but suddenly
changing his mind, for he saw well
enough in what danger he stood, he
dropped into his chair and, covering
his face with his hands, groaned aloud.
Hurd put away his revolver. "That's
better," said he pleasantly; "take a tot
of rum and tell me all you know."
"I'm innocent," groaned Jessop.
"Every man is innocent until con-
victed by a jury," said Hurd calmly.
"Consider me a jury, and I'll size up
your case when I hear all. Are you
Innocent of both murders?"
"Lady Rachel committed suicide,"
said Jessop, raising a haggard face.
"Yes—I stick to that, sir. As to Krill's
death in London, I didn't touch him; I
swear I didn't."
"But you saw him on that night?"
"Ilow can you prove that?"
"Very simply. Norman—or Krill if
you prefer the old name—took certain
jewelry to Pash for safe keeping short-
ly before his death. You presented to
Pash a paper, undeniably written and
signed by the old man, saying that the
jewelry was to be given up to bearer.
Now, before taking the jewelry to
Pash, Brill could not have written that
paper, so you must have seen him
during the few hours which elapsed
between his visit to Pash and bis
death."
This was clearly argued, and Jessop
could not contradict. "I left him quite
wen and hearty."
"In the cellar in Gwynne street?"
"Yes, in the cellar," admitted Jessop.
"At what time?"
"About half past 8—say between 8
and 9."
"Well, what happened?" asked Hurd,
smoking quietly.
The sailor twisted his big hands and
groaned. Then lie laid his head on the

table and began to sob, talking broken-
ly and huskily. "I'm done for," he
gasped. "I'd know'd it would come—
no—I ain't sorry. I've had a night-
mare of a time. Oh—since I pawned
that brooch"—
"Ah. Then you did pawn the brooch
at Stowley?"
Jessop sat up and wiped his eyes.
"Yes, I did. But I pullc my cap
down over my eyes and buttoned up
my pea jacket. I never thought old
Tinker would ha' knowed me."
"Wasn't it rather rash of you to
pawn the brooch in a place where you
were well known?" -
"I wasn't well known. I only come
at times, and then I went away. Old
Tinker hadn't seen me more nor .once
or twice, and then I pulled down my

Stop That Cold
To chock early colds or Grippe with "Prevents rs"
means sure defeat for Pneumonia. To stop a cold
with Proventics is safer than to let it rim and be
obliged to euro it afterwards, To be sure, Pre-

taken early—at the sneeze stage—they break, or
head off these early colds. That's surely better.
That's why they are called Preventico.

when Hurd stopped him. •
"See here," said the detective. "Toa,

"I swear that I am," gasped Jessop,
"Well, then, I'll give you the benefit

though there was the risk of beim}
shot, but the fracas would bring otb
on the scene, and Jessop knew he -co
not deal with the police. Therefore het
took a stiff peg and became quieter
in fact, when once started on his cons
fession, he appeared to be rather re�
lieved.
"It's been a nightmare," said he;
wiping his forehead. "I'm glad WS
come to the lawr, that I am. I met
Krill, as he wos then, some twenty'
five year back by chance, as'you wyi
say"—he cast a strange look at the desi
tective, which the latter noted—"yese

mates, and I'd what you might call
free quarters here—yes, sir—it's a frtis
seen fact"
"Very generous of Mr. grill,'" rem
marked Hurd dryly and .wondering;
what the man was keeping back.
"Oh, he was right enough as a mattlil
when not drunk, but the liquor made`'
a howling dorg of him. I've seen maims
drunk in many places," said Jossdea
"but any one who held his liquor wusiil
nor Krill I never did see. He'd knifal
you as soon as look at you wbetl'+
drunk."
"But he evidently preferred strand
gling."
"Hold on, mate," said Jessop, witlt�
another deep pull at the rum. "I'm
corrin' to that night We wos both oliJ

she didn't like it, so got to bed with I

"How old was the child?"
"Mand? Oh, yon might say she was
thirteen or fifteen. I can't be sure of
her age. What's up?"
For Hurd, seeing In this admission a
confirmation that Maud was not Brill's
child and could not inherit the money,
had showed his feelings. However, he
made some trivial excuse, not wishing
to be too confidential, and begged Jes-
sop to proceed.
"Well, mate," said the captain, filling
another glass of rum, "y'see the lady
bad come earlier and had been put to
bed by the missus. I never saw her my-
self, being drinking in this very room
along o' Krill. But he saw her," added
Jessop emphatically, "and said as she'd
a fine opal brooch, which he -wish he'd
had, as he wanted money and the mis-
sus kept him tight"
"Krill was a judge of jewels?"
"Traveled in jewels once," said the
captain. "Bless you, he could size up a
precious stone in no time. But be sat
drinking with me, and every now and
then got out of the room, when he'd
stop away for perhaps a quarter of an
hour at the time."
"Did he mention the opal brooch
again?"
"No," said Jessop, after reflection,
"he didn't. But ho got so drunk that
be began to show fight, as he always
did when boozy, though a timid chap
when sober. I concluded, wishing no
row, to git to my hammock, and cut
upstairs. Then I went by mistake into
the room of that pore lady, carrying
a candle, and saw her tied to the bed-
post stone dead, with a silk handker-
chief round her neck. I shouted out
blue murder, and Mrs. Krill, with the
kid, came tumbling down. I was so
feared," added Jessop, wiping his fore -
bead at the recollection, "that I ran
out of doors."
"What good would that do?"
"Lor', I dunno," confessed the man,
shivering, "but I wos skeered out of
my life. It wos rainin' pitchforks, as
y'might say, and I raced on through
the rain for an hour or so. Then I
thought, as I wos Innocent, I'd make
tracks back, and I did. I found Brill
had cut"

A Dividend This Year.
yoronto News: "The first dividend
will be declared is November, or shortly
a tlrwarde." That is the tt.tement

liquidators of the 'York County Loan
& Savings Company, is now issuing to
inquiring shareholders. If possible
the checks will be issued in October,
bat as mnoh work yet remains to be
done, it cannot now be definitely stat-
ed when the first money oan be paid
out to shareholders, and the liquidat-
ors name November as the time for
first payment, to be on the safe side.
There are some 114,090 shareholders,
and as many of these were in arrears
in their payments, and as these arrears
to the date of liquidation affect the
settllmenss it will be impossible to de-
termine the rate of the dividend till
the schedule of shareholders' claims
has been completed. The liquidators
expeot to be in a position to .announce
the rate of the dividend about Ootober
1, or about one month before the
dividend is declared. The fleet divl-
pend, it is estimated, will be on $500,•
000. Tho remainder will be distribut-
ed in later dividends, to be declared in
the course of winding up the the com-
pany's affairs. Since liquidation be-
gan, much of the real estate and other
assets of the company have been con-
verted into cash. Of the real estate,
since liquidation began, about $760,000
has been disposed of. The real pro-
perty has brought good returns, and
the value of the lands have been in-
creased according to the increase in
real estate values. Since the first of
March about $100,000 of the real estate
of the oompany has been disposed of,
and at good prices.

UGLY SKIN SORES
Zam-Buk Removes Them
It is jest at this season that pimples,
blotches, sores, scrofulous ailments, and
eruptions generally, make themselves
most felt. ZenaBuk will be found of
wonderful use wherever there is shin
eruption or deep-seated ulceration.
Pimples, blotches and irritating rashes
on the face and other parts of the body
indicate a disturbance of the functions
of the skin. Impure matter, which the
blood should discharge by means of the
skin, is allowed to remain in the pores,
the process of "exhalation" is interrupt-
ed, and just where the bad matter col-
lects, there pimples, ulcers and sores
quickly appear, and the skin tiesue cut-
ters. To be complete, the treatment
must be of two hinds. The sufferer
may help to diminish the supply of im-
purities by taking no rich, greasy and
indigestible foods; but to remove the
impurities themselves, the pores must be
opened and the skin made healthier by
the vigorous application 'of Zam-Bnk,
morning and night, and washing fre-
quently with some pure soap. There is
none better than Zara -Bak Medicinal
and Toilet Soap. Zam-Buk Balm stim-
ulates the functions of the skin by the
penetration of its refined herbal essences,
and thus reaches the root of the disease.
Mr. Arthur B. Griffin, of 191 Platen
Street, E. Hamilton, eaye:—"I was
greatly troubled w?th pimples and
blotches breaking out on my face. I
tried a number of remedies, and also
speoially dieted, yet the pimples and
blotches remained. Acting on the sug-
gestion of a friend, I began using Zam-
Bak, and was much pleased to find an
improvement after several applica-
tions, The itching was allevia-
ted, and the inflammation seemed less.
AsICente
continued the
Zam•Buk treatment,
the pimples and blotches beoame less
core, the itching was cured altogether,
and inflammation banished. In the
course of a very short time every blotch
and pimple was removed."
Zam•Bnk is also a cure for cute, lacer-
ations, burns, eczema, ring -worm, pois-
oned wounds, festering sores, bad -leg,
and all skin injuries and diseases. It is
also a euro for piles. Druggists and

SPRING'S SINGING.
[Lloyd Roberts, in Appleton's.]
Spring once more is here—
Joyone, sweet and clear—
Singing down the leafless aisles
To the budding year.
Her chanting is the thrush
Through the twilight hush,
And the silver tongues of waters
Where the willows blush,
Stir of lifting heads
Over violet beds;
Piping of the first glad robin
Through the greens and rede;
Croak of sullen crows
When the south wind blows,
Sighing in the shaggy spruces
Wet with melted snows.
Whisper of the rain
Down the hills again,
And the heavy feet of waters
Tramping on the plain.
Now the Goddess Saying
Makes the woodlands ring,
Bringing with a hundred voices
Joy to everything.
There are numberless people who
think they're No. 1.
There never is room at the top for
the man who thinks it was built only
for one.

to run the risk of more serious symptoms appear-
ing as the poison multiplies? Beware of mercury

ment will purify and enrich the blood, heal up

we accept for treatment are guaranteed a cem-
pieto cure if instructions are followed.
