OHKt.OMS .U-i I Pcle Morgaii was a criiulual whose normal state Heemed in ju It rather tlmo ! nt liberty. He hnd surved a term for I burglary, wuk rearrested on another charge, brought luto court, tried and ac quitted for want of evidence. While waiting for the papers In his case to be made out he heard the prosecuting attorney say to a messenger: "Go to my house and ask my dn lighter to look tu a tin box marked Schneider & Co. in the vault, get out a deed she will find there, give it to you and bring It buck to me." "Are you in a burry, sir", asked the in esse n go r. "Why do you ask?" "liccnuso I'm to go on another errand that's very important. ' "Very well. Vou may do that one first. I won't need the deed before this afternoon. Pete knew the name of the prosecut ing attorney very well. Indeed, ho had been made familiar with it by the fact that Mr. Wilkinson had arranged for his lodging iu prison on divers occa sions. Moreover. Veto had great per ceptive faculties. As soon as I'ete left the courtroom he sought a drug store and In a few minutes was turning over the leaves of a directory hunting for Mr. Wilkin son's home address. Upon finding it he proceeded to tlint gentleman's house, rang the doorbell and called for "Miss Wilkinson. " A young lady came Into the hall nnd asked I'ete what sho could do for him. "Your father sent me for a deed in a tin box marked Schneider & Co. In the vault, miss." "Oh," said the young iady, "I sup pose he menns the sliver nnd jewel vault. I believe he keeps some Inw pnpers there. I'll go and tlnd them." Miss Wilkinson tripped upstairs to u recess in the upper hall and began to turn a knob on n vault door with a view to getting inside. Pete's original idea wns while the young hidy was on looking for the deed to help himself to any article of value In small bulk he might seo nnd get away with It. The mention of the silver and jewel vault opened up new possibilities. Peter wns hesitating whether to fol low Miss Winklnson nud force his way into the vault when his heart was glad dened by hearing her call from the landing above: ' tind two deeds In the box. Did fa ther say which one ho wnnted?" "I think," snld Pete, "I'd know it if I was to see It" "Come up. please." Pete sprang up the stairs with alac rity. Here was the chance of his life, the jewel and silver vault standing opeu with no protection except a girl. Ho might not have to do any open work at all. His wits were sharp, and It was quite possible he could mako n pretext to go into the vault and slip a few gems into his pocket without being detected. He found Miss Wilkinson standing by a table on which wns an open tin box full of papers. She show ed him two deeds nnd asked him which ho thought her father wanted. He ex amined both very knowingly, when the girl, noticing the name on the box, ex claimed: "This isn't It nt nil. This In marked Parker is. Trensdale Co.' I'll gut the other one." "Couldn't I do It for you. miss?" "I wish you would. It's dark in there, nnd I hnro trouble with my eyes. There are several boxes on the shelf. Look for the one marked Schnei der & Co. and bring it out Into the light." "Yea, miss. My eyes are first rnte." Quito beside himself with Joy at this unexpected advantage. Peto went to tho vault, entered and. instead of look ing for the boxes, enst his eyes nbout for the valuables. There wns nothing, so far as ho could see. but a lot of tin boxes nnd musty papers. Itut before he could qulto take In tho situation he heard tho door of the vault shut, the i knob quickly turned, and he wns a prisoner. Mr. Wilkinson, sitting nt his desk in his oflleo. heard his telephone bell ring nnn took up the receiver. "Pnpn. did yon send a man for a i deed In the vault?" I 'Yes. Why do you nsk?" "Whom did you send?" j "Kdwnrd Heam." "ICd ward Beam didn't come. Hut n not her man came, and from the mo mem i mm eyes on mm i knew he wns a hardened criminal." "Orent heavens!" "How did such a man know what you wanted?" "I don't know. Tell mo what has hnppened. Anything stolen? Are you safer "Oh. It's all right." "What's become of the man?" "He's hern." "Here! What do you mean?" "I've locked him In the vault "In tho vault?" "Yes." "now In the world did you got him there?" "I entlerd him." "Tell me nit Rbont It. quick." "Well, I told him the deed you want ed wns In the Jewel nnd silver vault. Then I purptwly took out the wrnmr box and sent him In for the right one.' "Thank heaven! I wonder ym. weren't murdered."
