DETECTING
A DETECTIVE.
[Copyright, 1X7, by J. O. Retd.
Detective Quirk of police headjuar
ters was a good man. With outsders
that meant that lie was honest and
faithful and would not betray bis fast.
With his chief It meant that In did
not bnve to watch him quite so cNsely
an he did the others of his staff. Mr.
Quirk had never read the storiei by
Gaborlau, De Bolsgobe.v or Vldocq. Ro
mance bad nothing to do with hlstak
lng up detective work. He was|not
down on crime and criminals und hint
ing bad men lntd prison from any !eel
lug of duty toward the law.
Mr. Quirk realized that as a dete<iive
he had a good thing In bis gitsp.
There was a fleld open to him thit is
open to no other mau outside the pro
fession. It was for him to work ;liat
fleld. Detectives have sold themselves
out for a few hundred or a few tlou
sand dollars. Iu Mr. Quirk's oplilon
such men were asses and bad mlstaten
their vocation. He sighed to be deb,
but he dldu't propose to blunder uluut
it. He must nrst get a standing viui
his superiors and the public. He work
ed for five years to accomplish this A
dozen traps were set for him, but he
escaped them all by being lncornptl^
ble. He worked a ease for all It vas
worth, and he never let up or com
promised. If he caught a broker In a
gambling house lie had no more mirey
on him than the thief he caught scal
ing lead pipe. The burglar who offered
him $1,000 to look the other way for a
moment fared as did the politician vho
offered him a like sum to "let up" In
court. His fellow detectives pockded
their "divvies" and called hliu u f>ol,
and his chief looked over his reports
and almost believed that he had foind
a subordinate deserving of a medal
The day came when Mr. Quirk real
ized that he had established his rtpu
tation and that he could pull off his
scheme with safety. He had It In \ lew
for a year. He had several times been
?ailed In by the president of the ?
National bank to straighten out crook
ed thl.'igs ami had thus become well
acquainted "tvlth the bank messenger,
old Ifolsom. Folsotn was sixty yejrs
old. He walked with a hobble. He hid
rheumatism, and old ago had weaken
ed him. Yet the bank kept him. and
seemingly by some act of Providence
he had never been attacked by the
class always looking for a good thing.
In making his rounds he sometimes
carried $500,000 In checks. In return
ing to the bank he sometimes brought
$200,000 In cash with him. Mr. Quirk
fully realized what an easy thing It
was, but ho uttered no word of warn
L^f??XUUnMM
After calling at the last bank on his
route old Folsoui always took a short
cut through an alley to reach his own
Institution. It wasn't an alley so uiucu
tts It was h passageway. ft was only
six fe<?t lu width and used by pedestri
ans oaly. At any moment from 10
o'clock In the morning till 3 lu the
afternoon you could look up or down
the alley and count at least twenty
pedestrians coming or going. There
were doors opening Into the rear of
office buildings, and there was one
door opening Into an empty building
that bad formerly been a rag shop.
One afternoon Kolsom failed to return
to the bank at his usual hour. When
half an hour had passed, au alarm was
given. Men were found who had seen
him In the alley, but au alarm of tiro
was on at the time, and there were
much excitement and confusion. At 10
o'clock that night Folaom was found
In the old rag shop. He had received a
severe blow on the head and was tied
anil gagged. Something like $130,000
j In cash had been taken from his satch
el. It was Mr. Quirk who was given
the case, and It was Mr. Quirk who
found the old man after a long hunt.
It was four days before Kolsom re
gained consciousness and told his sto
ry. There was very little to tell. He
had backed up against the door to
stand for a moment and look for the
tire, and the door had been opened, he
had been drawn lu, and then followed
the blow on the head and darkness.
He had not even seen his assailant.
He was very grateful to Mr. Quirk,
and he felt the fullest confidence In
him, and yet there was a clew that he
suppressed. Why ho did ho could not
have told himself. As he fell be must
have grasped the man's coat and torn
off a button, for there was the button
cllnchcd tightly lu his hand. They
took It froth him at the hospital and,
strangely enough, said nothing about It
until two weeks later when lie was dis
charged. Then It was among bis
things. Folsom could not make It out
at first. It had tbe name of a tailor on
It. and he hud never patronized the
man. He believed he hnd seen but
tons like that on a business suit, and
It came to him after that tbe sujt be
longed to Mr. Quirk. Tho tailor cor
roborated lifiu.
Mr. Folsom was old, but ho did not
lack wit and acumen. He set himself
to work, and Inside of a fortnight he
found men who had noticed tho detec
tive In tbe alley on the day he was
assaulted. In the dust 011 tho floor bo
found tracks and measured them. Ho
had been bound with uew roi>c. He
discovered who had purchased Jt and
where. As a matter of fact, he work
ed up a good caso against Mr. Quirk
and had him arrested, and ten hours
later the missing money was found un
der the floor of U10 latter's room. Ho
would not confess, but the J 1117 found
him guilty, aud be. got a sentence of
twelve years and died after serving
half of It. He had planned for years
only to be caught by a man from whom
he thought he bad nothing whatever to
