I think tho head man would havo niiered a ac'riflco but for a pioco of good luck. An old woman died about noon, and wo obtained pormis.Hion to niako rucIi us of tho tody as wo desired. It seemed horriblo thing to do, but if wa were to rid the district of the beast we must entico him into tho trap. Tho body was carried thero seated in an upright position behind tho spindle and lashed io it, and then a dog was tied up In corner of he pen. A second dog was killed and his blood scatto-ed oyer tho Rtayo.t and earth aiiout, tho pen, and before dark wo returned to tfri vilrigo.

After supper order wore issued for every jieiton to jwtitiin indoors for tho ltisht, and to keep as quiet as possible, ami by ttw tiuio it was fullv dark tho viliajo wan a. quiet us grave yard.

It would not do to movf out. however, and suuh was tin jpprcssed excitement that no ono in the viltagj siept an hour.

Soon after dayliph. a of natives went on a scout, and la Uvj course of half nn hour they came r.iuu'ug lewr.h tho news that tho nun-cater was rafo in tho n. i had killed th dog and torn tho dead bxly in picce-n, and was reported in a furuun rago.

dressed in a beautifully fin. ished und woll-flttiner bluett ennt nil vest, faultless oxnensivn tnatnrinl. and a light, spring.ovcrcoatof soft texture and lined throughout with silk, was asked by a friend bow ho managed to dress so handsomely with only if 1,503 income The younirciun and thou said, uccord-iug to tho New York Sum If 1 put you up to tho racket you musn't give mo away. ut how much do you think now this overcoat.contf" Seven! y-fivo dollars, anyway." "I paid twenty for it. It co3t me altogether thirty, with alterations.

If could get these- trousers aado for $15 you'd do well. They cost mo seven. This coat r.ud vest, which are worth made at tho shop they camo from, cost mo exactly 38. Come, and I'll show you how I do it." Down near to Broadway and Grand street tho man turned cast along a sido street for xicouploor blocks, and entered a very ordinary looking clothing store.

The trousers he produced were of expensive- corded material, haudsomely made, and bore tho nai'us of a fashionable uptown tailor. On tho insido waistband was worked the namo of a well-known club man. Oh," said tho young man, I've had his before Thuv'll fit well enough. How much!" "Thorn extra flue," said Honry, apolo-t geticaily. "Ilavo to charge you eight un' a hu'f for them.

They were all of tho finest material; al boro tho imprint of fashionublo tailors, and several had worked or written upon the lining names of persons well known. The prices asked were ridiculously low. It's very simple," said tho well-dressed young nau.

"That dealer buys up misfits from tip-top tailors, and has his own private littlo lino of customers. Fifth avenuo tailors sell misfts for ciAugh to cover cost, and this mnn sells them for a small profit." "But if it is only a niislit place why nil this secrecy "Ah, you don't understand.
