He was in line to present his check, but made a break to get away when he saw the y detectives. ! “Who is he?" asked Miss June as Mr. Dinsdale was taking her home. “Dick Turner, the greatest confi- dence man in the country!” “But he has thirteen trunks at the Belmont and occupies a parlor suit.” “He has a carpet-bag and occupies a rcom in a cheap lodging house.” | “Graciqus, but how he has fooled {mamma!” “And the real estate men and you and others!” “No, nci me, sir.” “And why not?” I “Recause I had a feeling—teeling—" “Well?” “A fecling that I shouldn’t marry any other man but you, Brian!” | who shed tears and talked of the wick- edness of the world.
