A SINGULAR
CASE
By MARGARET B ARU

Frees Aa
Ellen Graham and I bad been acbool-
males. We bad sepn rated ater scboul
days, and 1 bad neither seen nor heard
anything of her till one morning, taking
a uewspsper, I bud read an item with
the beading "Jnmped Hla Ball."
1 read that Edward Jenka. a well
known confidence man, bad been ar
reated some time before, chnrged wlttt
Innumersble swindles. He bad pro
cured ball, tbe caae bad been called for
trial, and the ball bad been forfeited.
A alngulur feature of tbe case wss that
Jenks bad found a young woman who
moved In tbe beat social circles. Miss
Ellon Graham, to murry him. A pri
vate wedding bad token place a few
days before tbe day set for tbe groom's
trial, and tbe couple bad gone on a
wedding Journey. rTbls," remarked
tbe facetious reporter, "waa certainly
preferable to court ceremonies, fol
lowed by a Journey to tbe" peniten
tiary."
There wss a mystery, snd I am a
woman. Tbe eottaequence waa inevi
table. I put on my walking costume
and went out to satisfy my curiosity.
I felt assured that tbe person most
likely to give me tbe Inside of tbe
esse wss tbe crook's lawyer. I noted
bis name as given In the article and
called on Dim. telling blm that I was
a friend of Miss Graham and I should
be obliged If be would tell me bow
she bad come to demean herself by
marrying a confidence man. The law
yer smiled. Invited me to be seated and
told me tbe following atrange happen
ing: "One day Edward Jenks, who waa a
resident of another city, came to town
late at night during a political conven
tion and flnd1nga.t-the better class
of hotels full wss obliged to seek a
night's lodging at a cheap bouse. He
went to bed, and an hour later was
awakened by a knock at bis door.
Opening It In wslked several men. one
of whom ordered, him to put on bis
clothes and come along. No explana
tion was given blm. When be took
up bis clotbes to put tbem on he waa
astonished to ace that tbey were en
tirely different from those be bad tak
en off. Hla protest thst tbey were Dot
his own produced no effect upon his
captors, end be was ordered to put on
tbe clothes, which fitted blm indiffer
ently. One of tbe men rifled tbe pock-
ete and took out serersl. lettersad;J
dressed to Edward Jenka. Then the
pdaoner waa handcuffed, marched to
the police station and locked up.
"Tbe next morning Jenka. who waa
engaged to Mlaa Grabamand whom
be bad come to town to aee with a
view to arranging for tbelr wedding.
sent for ber father to come to tbe Jail
at once. When Mr. Graham aaw hla
aon-ln-law to be snd learned that the
police bad long been looking for blm.
be waa profoundly affected. Ills
dsugbter bad met Jenks while travel
ing abroad, and tbe acquaintance be
tween the two families bad beeu short
Jenks putting up at a cheap hotel, hla
apparel, the letters found In his
pocket which plainly proved that be
waa working certain confidence gamea.
waa too much for tbe old man'a faltb.
He turned on his heel and left the JnlL
"Jenks sent for me and told me the
story as far as I have told it to you.
I told him that tbe first thing to do
waa to get ball. This wss done. Jenks
went to a clothing store, where he
bought a new outfit and came to my of
fice. I can tell a gentleman from a
crook very easily, and I knew that
some mistake had been made In Jenks
case. But berore . we attemptea to
solve the mystery my client Insisted
that I go to hla fiancee and induce
ber to come and meet blm In my office.
She did ao. and tbe two were brought
together tn this room. Jenks waa not
long in convincing her that aome
atrange coincidence had happened to
him, and she waa much affected at bis
position. She went home thinking that
ahe could bring her father to ber own
views, but she failed. 8he waa for
bidden to aee Jenke again.
"The evidence against the accused
wss so strong that I saw no hope of
clearing him. I waa convinced that he
bad been made a victim of aome ras
cality, but I couldn't explain It Both
he and Mta Graham were In so deplor
able a condition of mind that I fear
ed one or both would break down un
der the strain. I dreaded tbe wear and
tear of trial for both of tbem, and I
didn't aee how I could get Jenka off.
at least not without spending months
In hunting up evidence, and then bow
la any one going to tell bow a Jury
will decide any question?
"A few days before the trial I pro
posed a plan that waa a great relief
to both the lovers. 'Marry.' I said, 'go
abroad on your wedding trip.'
"They Jumped at the auggestion,
were married secretly and under as
sumed names sailed for Europe. Jenks
left the money to reimburse the for
feiture of his balk, . ,
"A long while afterward I learned
the explanation. The night Jenks stop
ped at the hotel where he waa arrest
ed a hunted crook of the same nsme
entered the house and saw hla own
name on the register. Be took a room,
but went to Jenka' room, turned tbe
key with a pair of tweesera and left
hla clothes In Jenks' room, tsklng
Jenks'. Then be telephoned the police
that they would Dnd tbe man they
wanted at the hotel."
As soon ss the . bride and groom
could be found I called on my old
friend and .heard the etory from ber
ewa Hps. '
