He knew Lady Renardsmere well enough by sight, for he'd been a | fournalist in London before taking up his duties in Paris, and knew every- hody of consequence about town: the | Chinese gentleman he didn't Kno | but like all journalists he was ready enough to find out, and he was soon told that he r. Cheng, a Chinese | financier of very high standing. Now, this man had. of course, read all bout these mysteries in the London apers, and had seen Lady Renard: mere’s’ name mentioned, and Mr. Cheng's, so he was naturally inter- ested_in seeing them together, and. knowing that he was coming over to London within a few hours, he determined to call on us at Scotland Yard and tell us what he'd seen. But, as he then had little time to spare. and was well up in the case, which had keenly aroused his interest, he also determined, being on the spot, to give us a bit of practical help. And he did!” g “How?" I asked. “What practical help?” 2 ‘Well” continued Jifferdene, “if you read the newspaper story, you'd see that it told straight out that Mr Cheng was staying at that very Hotel Bristol in Paris when he was robbed of some extraordinarily valuable ar- ticle—God knows what it may be, for we don't—by his secretary, Chuh Sin. This _ journalist —smart _ fellow! — thought h'd try to get some descrip- tion of Chuh Sin from people at the Hotel Bristol who remembered him. He succeeded in doing so—very easily —and he's_furnished me with their account of the man we want o badly; if Mr. Cheng had been frank and open with us, we might have been spared a lot of trouble and there'd have been fewer of these mur- ders. This Chuh Sin is one of those Chinamen who. they say, might very sasily pass for a European; he was given to dress very fashionably in Paris, and_few people, in their opin- fon, would have known him for a Chinaman—though, to be sure, they added, when seen in native dress, which he sometimes wore, the differ- ence in his appearance was striking. Ag for the rest of him. he speaks French and English perfectly, Eng- lish without a tzace of accent, and is Ja very astute, ready-mannered per- son altogether. The hotel manager, who had a_good deal of business to transact with him, spoke of him to this journalist as being a very clever man indeed—and I think, Mr. Cran- age, we know him to be so! = We also know, Jifferdene. that he's markedly disfigured,” I said. “And so_ought to be easily identifiable.” “Aye!—at close quarters!” he swered s | haa You w business. i the slip | That. of | why out | en I came course, made should she | of my way | conceal? have unle: Well, as ided widest to | dropped through agreed. But nobody's ever been at close quarters with him—yet. How- ever, we're at work. But—what do you 'suppose Lady Renardsmere was up_to with this old Cheng? “I'm not going to speculate, Jiffer- dene,” 1 answered, “Lady Renards- mere has her own way of doing things_and she dislikes and won't have interference. And—she reads the newspapers—a great reader—and she'll_know, therefore, what's going on, and her’own danger.” “Danger!” he said, “Aye—if it's as I suspect, that she’s got mixed up with this, she is in danger, as_long as that Chinaman's going.

DENVER, Colo., July 19.—Harry H. Tammen, editor and part owne of the Denver Post, Wied early foday aft- er a short illness, In addition to his interest in the Post, Mr. Tammen po: ssed a private fortune estimated at $5,000,000. Mr. Tammen is survived by his wife, | Mrs. Agnes Tammen, and a_brother, Frank Tammen of Denver. He, with his partner, Fred G. Bonflls, formerly owned the Kansas City Post. They also were former owners of the Sells- Floto Circus. Mr. Tammen had been ill about four months. About three weeks ago he was operated on at Johns Hopkins Hospital, at Baltimore, Md., and re- turned Monday in the private car of J. Ogden Armour, a close personal friend. Mr. Tammen was 67 years old. Ac- cording to his physician, he had a very quiet night and his death was unexpected. Twenty-nine years ago. when he and Mr. Bonfils' bought the Post, it was the smallest paper in Denver. Today it has the largest circulation of any newspaper in the Rocky Moun- tain district. Mr. Tammen attributed much of his success to the fact that Mr. Bonfils and himself were con- stantly “on the job.” Asa rule, when one was away the other remained on duty.

SHARPSBURG, Ga. July 19.—His altercation with Oliver = Cameron, twenty-two years ago, near Birming- ham, Ala., which caused Cameron, in a fit of remorse, to attempt to drown himself in Portland, Ore., recently, be- lieving that he had killed his neighbor, still is fresh in the mind of W. F. Gay, despite his eighty-one years of age. “He shot me three times in the back and then ran away,” Gay said at his home here today, explaining that the trouble arose over the purchase by Gay of some property from Cameron in Broyles, near Birmingham, in 1902. He said that Cameron shot him with- out provocation and added that he is willing and anxious to prosecute the charge of assault with intent to murder which he filed against Cameron imme- diately after the affair.

His deep Spiritual life that had been developed by his years of communion and prayer ‘ith God, while he lived in the soli- tude of the Judean wilderness after the death of his p probably as a member of the fraternit was a source of power in his attacks upon “the formal hypocritical re- ligion of his time.” Tt was the man back of the sermons that gave to the persuasive power.
