forces will of itself strike terror into the mob and nip tbe spirit of anarchy in the bud winifred was a devoted daughter but she had a sense of humor and th magniti cent spectacle of her father striking terror into the mob was more than she could dis cuss with gravity tho subject cons quontly dropped later on however when mr and mrs tidywaite found themselves alone joseph suddenly said to his wife has ted o'brien been here again " not to my knowledge replied tho lady why do you ask because i am convinced that no one but o'brien could have put that radical clap trap about the special constables and the people into winifred's head i think that she met him last night at mrs somerset's joseph then understand that i distinctly forbid her to go to mrs somerset's again said the banker angrily or anywhere else ' where she is likely to meet that young jack j anapes he has quite turned the girl's head we shall have her defying her own father next now mr edvrarl q'urien was a young relative of mrs tidywaite who had come to london from dublin to study medicine although ha had distinguished himself at the hospr als he was still on the thresh | old of his profession and as his private means wore sm&ll he was hardly an eligi | ble son-in-law for ihe senior partner in tidywaite chink & bullen moreover he whs an earnest nationalist and a thorough going radical and in those

their employes was duly sworn in ci a special constable he had his first taste of active service on tbe following sunday when after he had duly rendezvoused at albany street barracks at eleven a m he was marched through the mud and the fojjf por 6 pirlnk and breathless to cavendish square and there held in reserve till about five p m the mob to do them justice did not appear overawed by the sdectaclo on the contrary thev occupied themselves throughout the above period with facetious comments on the appear ance of the specials individually and collectively mr tidywaite although he had contrived to get into the rear rank came in for his share of this fun and he went home with the rudiments of a bad cold an unpleasant stiffness in the legs and an aggravated sense of grievance against the lower orders generally but fortunately with nothing worse a week or two later however his fortitude and sense of duty were put to a sharper teat ue received a notice that in riew of the threatening demonstration being organiied at tho other side of loud ju the regular constables on duty in his district would bo withdrawn in the evening and special con stables in pairs would replace them on their beats tho beat assignod to mr tidywaite included portland square duchess place and several adjoining streets in the west end the day duly arrived and a dreadful day it was heavy snow in the morning was succeeded bv a general drizzle as the day wore on the cold which mr tidy wait had caught in cavendish square had now assumed portentous dimensions aud settled on his chest his rheumatism was also troublesome at tho last moment mrs tidywaite was anxious for a medical cer tificate but unluckily did not think of it till too late and she was about to help her husband get ready for his work when they were informed that the police superintend ent desired to see mr tidywaite 1 just called sir said the officer to warn you to keep a sharp lookout on no 9 portland square it is the duke of dub lin's house he is the president of the irish landlords ancient rights mainten ance league you know sir ah certainly you are not anticipating any attack on the duke's house i hopei inquired mr tidywaite rather anxiously no but we have standing instructions to look after tho residences of gentlemen in the duke's position and we know the dyna miters aro very active a?ain just now de;ir me how dreadful and can you tell me who will ire wi h me on my be.it r theilo.i guy wyldnre sir lord liule brain's youngest son you will find him a very pleusaut young gentleman 1 think good night sir sorry you have such a nasty evenin.z this interview did not raise mr tidy waite's spirits on the contrary it filled him with uneasiness it was his rule never to keep firearms in the house but he wished now that he bad had a pistol that he could put in his pocket to supplement the protec tion of his truncheon as it was he could muster no more deadly weapon than a pair of handcuffs wnich he had purchased short ly after being sworn in as likely to be of service in tho event of his having to effect an arrest these he now stowed away in one of his deepest pockets while mrs tidywaite assisted him in his other prepara tions wrapiiin a good length of stou flan nel around his kuee the rheumatic one — and stuffing his pockets with sausage-rolls sandwiches a flask or two of comfor.ing cordials and a plentiful stock of cough lozenges thus provisioned and equipped in his largest overcoat and a new pair of goloshes the banker marched forth stop joseph stop cried his wife as the door was closing on him you are going without your respirator 1 didn't forget it my dear said ihe old gentleman rather nervously but i thought that it would look a that is that 1 should hardly require " look or no look joseph replied his wife who was accustomed to be obeyed in such matters you put on that respirator before you eo outside the door poor joseph submitted with the best grace he could the respirator was duly adjusted and the good man made the best of his way to the spot where he was to re lieve the regular constable and where he found not ouiy hon guy wyldfiro but also a select quorum of 6treet boys and loafers who had come to see the fun o my eye kre's the city corporation been and swore insself in a a speshul ejaculated one of the bystanders at tho bight of mr tidywaite's portly form hallo copper when did you see your toes lastt inquired anotner i say bill said a third what's the bloke been and gagged hisself for to save his false teeth from bein knocked down his throat most likely re plied bill please sir be you the speshul or the h extra or the hextra speshul 1 cried a cheeky arab amid an encouraging churus in this key the two constables started on their rounds they walked slowly over the extent of their beat and thon came to a standstill in portland square snow had now set in again vigorously and a keen northeaster drove the flakes in the faces of tbe two specials and caused the elder to shiver be neath his wraps do you think said the banker pres ently tha 1 it would appear—a—unprofes sional if 1 wore to put up an umbrella contrary to all the regulations replied mr wyldtire who kept up his spirits very creditab'y under the circumstances don't you let the inspector catch you at it i think though that i can put you up to a better dodge than that pray what is it inquired mr tidy waite much interested p 73 the peeler on the beat tipped me a wink as he was going away and whispered that we should tind no 24 the right sort of shop i can't say what he meant but i caught a glimpse of a larky-look ing slavey at no 24 duchess place as we came by 1 mean to havo another look if you'll stop here a minute i will re turn anon and report progress and without further explanation the scion of the aristocracy departed at the end of about a quarter of an hour he returned vis ibly sati.sfled with the result of his mission it's all right he said p 73 is a brick there's a comfortable k itchen entirely at our disposal at no 24 the slavies are full of fun the family are out and i've sent for a bottle of whisky come on !" the banker gazed at his comrade in blank amazement you don't mean to say he gasped that you expect me to " why n»ti what's the use of playing at peeler if you don't i the thing properly but what about the bea and the duke's house here o they'll look after themselves for half an hour for the ma'ter of that it wouldd't be much loss to society if the fjuians were to blow old dublin into smithereens you had better come the cjok's a topper i can tell you just your sort had it beea any one else than an earl's son who spoke sir tidywaite would un doubtedly have met this ribild sjeech with the rebuke it merited as it was he con tented hiiii-rcii with declini-13 ie invita tion as s.ifflj ■« p : v»-.«w p»-'tiitt^d as you please said thehcaorab'.egny you will know w*ere to find n-.e if i am warned no 34 don't forget ta-ta he was soon out of sight and mr t;dy ! waite was left alone with his own reflo'c tions solitude did not add to the charms of his situation the storm seemej to bo steadily increasing in violence and though he had no desire to imitate the exarcpie of mr wyldflre the banker presently moved • round his beat looking for a chance of gaining shelter he came thus to no &— the duke of dublin's house it was a fine ' mansion with a large portico extending to the pavement and remembering his in ' structions from the inspector mr tidy waite thought he would be doing his duty ; as well as consulting his inclination if he stood up against ono of the pillars at the i side sheltered from the wind he stood i there about a quarter of an hour his tce3 ' ' numbed and his taeth chaptering when the clock of a neighboring church struck nine i , the last stroke had scarcely ceased when ' mr tidywaite was startled by a low i j whistle close at hand looking out j | from his shelter he perceived a tall j man in an ulster standing under j a neighboring lamp-post as if in i response to the whistle two other men hurried up from opposite directions their j : movements were so mysterious that the special constable drew back as far out of i sight as he could get the men were now j talking together and the inspector's in structions—the allusion to the duke of dublin and the d?natniters recurred pain fully to mr tidywaite's mind as he caught fragments of tho conversation in a rich milesian brogue in another minute or so the two last comers again departed in opposite direc tions and mr tidywaite's heart sank into his boots as he saw the tall man advance stealthily towards no 7 he was now close alongside the special and looking into the area beyond doubt with some sinister pur pose the inclination to fly was almost i irresis ible in mr tidywaite's breast but he summoned up all his sense of public duty and with a supreme effort stepped out and accosted the mysterious stranger now sir he said what is your busi ness here what has that to do with you returned the man -• pf i am a representative of tho law and it is my duty to ask what you are doinij and suppose i don't tell you then i must ask y^u to come along with me and suppose 1 sny i sha'n't cocv said the man with a cou emp'uous laugh then i shall arrest you in the queen's name rcpli d the valiant constable and producing his handc.iffs he made a vicious grab at tho strang r perhaps the tall man was taken aback at this unexpected display of resolute government at any rate he b'ood quite s'lil much to mr tidywaite's relief and allowed tho bracelets to bo slipped on to his wrists then he began to move off stop cri-xl the special we are going the other way 1 ain't said the tall man toucan if you like unfortunately however mr tidywaite had taken the precaution of attaching tho handcuffs ti^hily round iiisown waist the prisoner showed no disposition to stop and as his advao'ege in s'rength more than counterbalanced t>.e special's superiority in weight and as moreover the pavement was too slippery to afford any foo ho!d for resistance mr tidywaite felt himself re luctantly compellej to fullow help help ' he cned frantically as ho found himself be'ng hurried into a trot the two confederates came running up at the sound of his voice stuff his respirator in'o his mnuth mike sad 1 be tall man and tie his muff ler over it or he'll rouse the whole neigh borhood this was q'nck'y done in spite of mr tidywaite's resistance and the unfortunate special fojnd himse'.f attain dragged off bo hind his prisoner while each one of tho accomplices hold one of tin arms there was just one hope he thoutrht of escape he was beics mar hod towards baker street where he knew that other special constables were on duty the idea however seamed to strike the conspirators as soon as himself for at a word from the tail man one of the others presently took the key of the handcuffs from mr tidy waite's pock.'t and in auother moment the special himself was hand u ted while the tall man toon possession of the truncheon and trausferrod the constable's armlet to his own arm no soon-r was tins done than thev met a pair of specials on their beat it's all right sai 1 tho tall man in answer to aques'ion from one of thf con stables ho was dmnk an.l disorderly and assaultel this gentleman hero kut we've pot him safe enough now poor mr tidywaite was j:is attempting to ex plain ma'ters when he was hurriedly cur ried on by his capt rs and not allowed to again stop until the par.y arrived at a dingy-looking house in tho neighborhood of high street marylobone where the pris oner was conducted to a large roc m scan tily furnished in tho upper part of the bouse a very few minutes observation satis fled the terrified b inker that he was in a n*st of conspirators of a dark aad malig nant character to begin with his three companionb as they entered the bouso one and all assumed blark masks they ex changed remarks ton in a language which mr tidywaite had never hoard before and addressed one another by numbers iiis'ead of names the prisoner was bidden to sit down at one end of th room us i"->ckets were turned out and h'.s stock of provisions were distributed amon the gang who dis posed of them excepting the eouirh loz enges with evident rel;sh then on h:s solemnly swe.ir.ng neither to move nor speak the
