Produced by Jonathan Ingram, Anna Hall and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Strand Magazine, Vol. 17, February 1899, No. 98" is a collection of literary works and stories published during the late 19th century. This volume includes contributions from various authors, including a notable story by Arthur Conan Doyle entitled "The Story of the Jew's Breast-Plate," which weaves a tale of intrigue surrounding valuable archaeological artifacts and a peculiar theft. The opening portion of the magazine introduces Ward Mortimer, an accomplished archaeologist who has recently taken over the Belmore Street Museum. Shortly after his appointment, he receives an anonymous warning about the security of the museum's treasures, particularly a rare Jewish breastplate known as the urim and thummim, which may be linked to King Solomon's Temple. When Mortimer discovers that the settings of several jewels in this breastplate have been tampered with, he begins to unravel a mysterious connection to his predecessor, Professor Andreas. The story sets up a compelling atmosphere of suspense and curiosity, suggesting impending revelations tied to theft and the motives of those connected to the museum.
