He is evidently in great distress, and we soon discover its cause. He has met with a loss, a daring robbery has occurred at his station. It is no less than the loss of his lantern. Giving every assurance to the agitated owner of the stolen lantern, the keen-minded sleuths set forth on the trail. An investigation is made at the station with the aid of the magnifying glass in the minutest detail, when finally his most ingenious methods unfold the clue. Seated at a table is a man quietly reading by the light of a lantern. This man is Pecko, and he it is who has caused the terrific upset in the station agent's affair. But why? His answer to Sherlocko is, he wanted to read by a borrowed light. The sleights, however, recover the "glim" from him, leaving him his bit of candle with the fair warning never again to tamper with his neighbor's goods.
