"Whew!" exclaimed Mr, leockett. "Yon haven't he'ard the news." "News, what news" asked Leicester, sternly. "That the captain is to be made a baronet, and that he is to marry his ward, Mise Mildmay."

"Exactly," said Mr. Dockett, with a queer twinkle of the eye. "Then as we are agreed, I'll get you to allow me to And he took the reins from Mr. Than - ton's hands, calling to Stumpy: "Young man, just get into my gig, will you, and follow on after."

Stumpy were left at Penruddie Mr. Dockett repaired to London and, set about his task with a zeal. and cunning highly commend- able. In the first place he appeared one morning in the city, dressed after the faehion of a eimple and wealthy coun- try squire. He made hie way to the offices of one of the companies over which Irovrard Murpoint was director, and inquired for that gentleman. The clerk told him that Mr. Murpoint was not in the eity at that early hour, and. would probably not arrive until one o'clock. Mr. Dockett waited patiently, and at teat the great an armed. Mr. Dockett was shown into the great Mania parlor and annotniced his busie ness. "I am, he said, "in egarch of a good investment. My name is Squirrel, and I've had a large aum of money left me, which I don't quite know wax* to do with. My lawyers tell me I must put it in the tbree-per-cents, but I thought th.st you being a great city man, Nevoid be able to show me a better investment than that. So I made bokrto come and ask you." The captin had often been applied to for advice as to investments, and, after the first alight surprise, saw noth- ing suspicious in tbe country gquire. and in his pleasant way informed that he certainly could aseiet The he told Mr. Dockett that he could not do better than put hie mon- ev,in this and that company, and con- cluded by mentioning all the financial schemes in which he was interested. Mr. Dockett listene4 attentively and jotted down the names of the companies in which the captain was concerned, and then, thanking him gratefully, took his /eava. From the offices he repaired to a email room in Scotland Yard and rang a little hand -bell. It wee answered by another detective very much like Mr. Dockett, but with more of the city air about him. Mr. Dockett and he shaok hands, then Mx. Dockett said: "Giles, I've got a city job on. Look here, do you know anything of that gentlema?" and he passed a slip of pa- per upon which Mr. Howard Itfurpoint's name was written. Mr. Giles "Everybody knows him, Mr. Dockett," he said. "Ale but do you know anything of him in the way I mean?" owelle" hesitated Mr. Giles, "perhaps I may have my suspicions." "Exactly; and perhaps 1 have mine.
