Charlton Takes the Trail. Ralph Charlton., as we'll as ever other agent of the Departnen+t o Jueti'ee, was called off whatever we he was following and told to worn upon nothing hut the Judge Graham case until it had been solved. But not all of the combing of the city had brought to light one single feet that would help the hounds of the law. Dragnets spread into every nook and corner of the underworld had dragged out of their hiding places every crook of high or low degree and filled the police stations with them. Policemen of the olden days, experts in the now discarded third degree, came out of retirement or off lonely duties to try . to find among all the catch of the dragnet sone man or woman weak enough to succumb to ' their rigorous n eithods . and yield: up Abe starting point'of the chase. Rewards that ran well up into the thousands were ptosted for the same purpose. Every man or woman who wits known to have reason to desire, revenge upon the inissintg Judge, and a great gnarly who were only suseet-' ed,were checked up to account for. their svheveabouts on Saturday night.' At every hour of • the day or night those whose names were on the 'Gov-' e nment lists as suspected radicals or aisloyalists were put through deltailed examinations for the saline purpose.; But all to no purprose by the Government agents, He 1, disappeared early in his tweet:be. p lapse which had never been aecoui s, for by the investigators, but s" shown up again on the East Sid h dozen years later, on a last visit t- .his aged mother.

About the end of last century Sun- day -schools reached their high-water mark as far as attendance is concern- ed. The average attendance at the world's Sunday -schools every Sunday afternoon ran into tens of millions. Of late years there has been a steady de- cline in the popularity of the Sunday- school. It,. would be a world catastrophe if this peculiarly English institution should lose the immense power it has wielded in the making of the nation. Cracks in floors may be neatly and permane'nt'ly filled by thoroughly soakiuxg' newspapers in paste made of a half pound of flour, three quarts of water, malt posh' of alum, mixed and boiled. The mixture 'should be about as thick as putty, and may bo forced into the erevioe with' a knife. It will harden like papier-mache. • * * * I sometimes have to hang a gate or a door, and a ,carpenter's w'i'fe hap- pened in ante day as I was havinga tussle with an unruly screw.

He suddenly recalled his aiml�ees steaming of "The Gray Wolf" several nights before. It was , not that Lebrune was any more to be suspected than a hundred other per -1 sons, but it was the fact that Charl-1 tctl had seen hini in an unexpected 1 place that Caused him to centre his i krrain upon that slippery individual! as having a hand in the d'isappearaircet of Judge Graham, His fatigitu dropped from him, as, the Federal agent poaidered upon this ' possibility. Lebrune was not sus- tomed to frequenting the neighbor- 1 s hood where Charlton had seen hien He aid not consort with that gentry; c off the class that frequented "Silver Danny's," It must have been an ung- :t h usual thing that had sent him there. 'a• I Well, the disapp•earan,�e of the veteran G jurist was an unusual hung. Perhaps t there was a connection between the, two.
