Ou Sept. 1? tho inspector of polico nt the Kcuuington Road police stationwns piepariug to go homo, ir being 8 n. ni. n:nl his uiglit duty over, when ho was (topped by nn elderly woman, vrUorcsh. eil into the loom and cried: "Oh, do send some one, sir, to US Wernhain road. My poor old master's been cruelly murdered. He's lying in lus room in a pool of blood liko a river. It mnst huvo been done in the uight Do como at once, Bir. " On tho way to Wernhain road tho in spector questioned tho housekeeper. "Who sleeps in tho honso besides yourself and tho old gentleman?" ho ashed. "Not a blessed soul, sir," cried Mrs. Masters. "Only mo and my poor old niahter Sich a nice, regular man as ho was, comin 'onio overy night to 'is tea and always in bed by 10 o'clock. Ohr it's a cruel thingl" "Did any one visit him last night that yon know of?" asked tho inspector. "Not that 1 know of, sir, but to toll you the truth I was in bed mysolf early last night, 'avin a bad attack of 'oad aehu Tho old gentleman always let Miui-clf in with 'is latchkey, as ho iiat'rally would. Ho como to bed aftor J was asleop, for I never 'eard 'im como iu. "His supper was always laid out ready for 'im iu tho dinin room, and ho wouldn't want no waitiu on, so thoro was nothin wiong in my bein off to bed as 1 did, 'avin, as I said, a bad 'ead acho and bein very subject to sick 'ead aches, which, as you may know, sir, aro very unpleasant, to say tho least of them, and" "Was tho supper eaten?" said tho in spector, interrupting tho woman's elo quence. "Woll, sir, to say tho truth, I've not thought of lookin. Directly I see 'im a-lyiii thcro I off to tho station as 'ard as 1 can go. I can't sleep in tho place tonight. That I can't. " By this tinio they had reached tho houso and went upstairs. Tho inspector mid his nuin went in and locked tho door behind them. A knock was heard nt tho door. "Can I como in?" said Mrs. Masters. "Certainly," repliod tho iuspeotor. "Open tho door, Jenkins. Wo shall want her no doubt. " "Poor, dear maul" cried tho lady again when sho saw tho body of tho old man. "Tho monsters I" Sho burst into tears. "You had better go for a surgeon, " said Mr. Bovis to tho constable. "Ho ought to seo tho body as soon as possi ble, as wo shall want Mb roport on it" Whilo tho man was gone tho in Bpeotor, accompanied by Mrs. Masters, visited overy room In tho house. Every thing was orderly and untouched. Tho assassin must huvo loft tho placo by tho ordinary means of egross, for all tho windows woro looked. Tho front door, Mrs. Masters told tho in spector, would no doubt have been un bolted in any caso, for Mr. Mayno (hor nmstor, tho nniu who Jay dead) novor bolted it if iio let lilnibelf iu, leaving Iter to ilp mi. TJioy reached tlm, dJnliig room ana found tluit tho supper had been eaten.

Thorn seems some thing methodical In these occasional trinrkS of blood against certain words. This is going to bo interesting. " At tho coroner's inquest tho following report from Inspector Bovis was put in, but rpad privately, as tho information contained theiein would havo been harmful to tho negotiations of tho de tectives' who were running tho suspect ed man to death. It ran as follews: On tho morning of Sopt. 17 of this year I was called to 118 Wernhain road, Kenniugton lane, nt which house Rich ard Mayno, tho deceased, resided. After making all tho necessary ar rangements Mr. Brookes, tho surgeon called my attention to n large diction ary which was on a chair within reach of tho deceased. Throughout tho book certain words were marked in blood. Thinking this strange, 1 made an in vestigation of the book, which was an ordinary dictionary, ovidently used by tho deceased in connection with his literary work. I determined on a plan of setting down on paper every word indicated by tho crimson mark, on doing which 1 had tho following list, w ,i Ji f givo in tho ordor in which 1 discovered them, going systematically through the dic dic teonary: "Masters goodby to my I invention oldest communicated for cannot diction ary is plans friend to tho movn has hiui dynamo from in murdered tho I hero mo details intended to tonight foolishly plans of to getting my patent or indi cate next paper tho dull new month so mark this murderer street dying his borough property namo ho drawings Whitelaw stolon I houso has stono Jas per blood to my I." On going over this for somo timo I began pieco by piece to put it together. I picked out first of all two words which soemed conspicuous namely, J "Jasper" and "Borough." Evidently i tho first was tho namo of tho man con- , nected with tho deed, and tho second was tho district in London known by that namo. I next picked on tho word "dull, " which as an ordinory adjective seemed out of place in such a dying speech, and I at onco roinombercd tho street called "Dull street," which was situat ed in tho borough. Thero seemed no doubt that tho address given was in Dull street borough. So far so good. Finding no other use for the words "stono" and "houso," I ventured to use them as tho namo of residence in Dull street, which made my information read, "Stono houso, Dull street, bor-1 ough. " On looking up tho street surely j enough I found tho comer house called by that namo. After many hours' toil, twisting and turning, I at length got tho words put into some sort of shape, and this is how they read: "Jasper Whitelaw stono houso Dull street borough has murdered mo tonight foolishly my oldest friend all my draw ings ho has stolen plans property I oom muuicated to him tho details and plaus of my new invention for tho dynamo to patent noxt month I intended to get ink or paper cannot move from hero and mark this so in dictionary my blood to indicato tho murderer his namo is I am ' dying all Masters goodby II." On going over this again I traiihposcd certain word, putting tho lirst two' words, "Jasper Whitolaw," after tho phraso, "murderer is, " which mado tho linos read moro clearly. In tho end, after great lohor, I arrived at tho fol lowing, which I submit for tho consid eration of tho autherities: 'My oldost friend has murdeied mo tonight. Foolishly I communicated to him tho dotnils and plans of my new invention for tho dynamo I intended to patent next mouth. I counot move from hero to get ink or paper and bo murk this dictionary in my blood to indicato tho murderer. His namo is Jiurpur Whitolaw, stono houso, Dull direct, Borough. All my plaus and drawings Jiu has utolen. I am dying All proper ty to Mooters. Goodby. " Tho above is my roport. To this 1 havo nothing further to add.

Ouo little girl iu San Francisco has no trouble to remember hor lessons, and sho has tremendously long lessons and hard lessons, too, for a littlo girl huge numbers way up iu tho millions and (incur names with lots of syllables and jv.st nwful to pronounce Yet she does not havo to study at all.'and iu tho day time sho goes to tho park or to Oakland or plays with dolls or with other chil dren. This littlo girl, who remembers what is told her only onco, is helping to sup port her father and mother, who aro very poor, and yet sho is only 4 years and 2 months old. Thoso poor parents aro farming people, living in tho little town of Mount Vernon, Ills. Of course when little Oertio Cochran wus born her mother and father were sure that sho was tho brightest and prettiest baby that had over como to tho homo of fond parents, but when tho little one began at 7 months old to lisp words and sentences they were enthusiastic, for who ever beforo heard of a baby begin ning to speak when only 7 months old? When tho child was a year old, her mother noticed that sho repeated words and sentences that were said in her hearing ami could rcmomber for days and woeks and mouths tho things that sho had hoard. As littlo Gertie Cochran grow older her speech becamo plainer; her memory also gained. Sho could repeat long son tcnoos and big numbers. Her mother found that tho child could storo away anything sho heard and ropoat it when asked, though tho words sho repoatcd could not possibly convey any impres sion to her intellect. The mothor saw in this unusual gift a way to add to tho scanty income of tho family, and last year sho took her to tho county fair in tho neighborhood of hor residence and also to tho town in tho vicinity and had hor stand among a crowd of people and answer questions. Then tho mothor would tako up a col lection from the pooplo who listened to tho big answers piped so readily from tho littlo lips. Ono day a man who had been iu tho theatrical business for years happened to stand on a street comer in ono of tho littlo towns near Mount Vernon and to hear tho child answering tho questions. "Hero's a And, " said tho theatrical man, whoso namo is Cook iu tho lan guage that theatrical men utc, and he mado n contract by which littlo Gertie was to travel with him all over the country and show to big audiences hor reumrkablo memory. Kver siuco last Christmas the child has been on tlio f tago, answering all kind of questions that mean nothing to her , except tlmt sho has been told somo words to say when certain words aro said 'to her. Tho ovoryday events of Hfo roniain as btoudfast in liur memory as tho statistics and tho names sho repents when Inifora an audience. Sho has been on tho stago for seven mouths and citn tell wary theater In which sho uppourod and tho name of every man and woman sho met at each ouu of tho theaters, Ban Fran cisco Chrouiulo.
