To two of the Inillcs from the floor
nlmvo Sellnrs coiihIkiu-cI Ills tlinw, and
Hpenkliif; ii few woiiIh In n low tone to
Iliiiinnli, lie re-cnteri'il the llltrnry, while
the iu'KIi'hh returned to the kitchen and
joined Iter dntiKhter.
"It Kecnm Incredible, Hellnrn," observed
I)r. Norcum, "Hint Itobcrt Unnipboll
hIioiiIiI hiive committed thin murder."
"Mimy tliltiKH neeiii Incredible nt first
Rlnuce," nnlil tlie detective.
"The probability In," remarked Her
man, "tlmt my uncle Informed him Hint
lie deMred Ills daughter to become my
wlfej Hint he utterly reftwed to Hnnctlon
IiIk milt, nnd Hint In n (It of rnRe, Itobcrt
Ciimpbell plunged the bin tie of the hIiciiHi
knife to bin heart. lie doubtless tlioiiKlit
no one clue knew of IiIh presence In the
limine. I'erhiipx be wan appalled nt the
bloody deed he had committed. I doubt
not, but that we heurd my uncle's cries
mid hastened down, In another moment he
would have lied, and this murder inli;lit
long have remained a mystery."
"I'eihapH," assented the detective, "and
then come Innocent party mlubt have been
Kitspeeted. Why, even yourself, Herman
Craven! It Is fortunate that your uncle's
cries aroused you."
Herman's pale fnce beenmo pnler yet,
anil he glancci! uneasily at Hie detective,
as he ran the lingers of one hand through
his black hair.
"Fortunate, Indeedl" beexclnimcd. "My
poor uncle lias been like a fnther to me,
and I hnve always tried to merit his n flec
tion. Yon know, Keutleiuen, my mother
was his sister."
"My the wny," observed Keliars, "I
would like to Co tliroiiKli the hmise. You
know, of course, that thu iitiMtion will
arise as to whether the premised were
searched. It Is best, on your ac
count, Craven, that the fact should
be established Hint a thorough search
wai made. Yon know, Campbell
eliilmi that he brought n, line of gold
coin here, lie can undoubtedly establish
the faet that he procured It at the express
olllce."
"He may have done so," said Herman,
with n troubled look that ho could not
avoid, "but imsurrdly he did not enter this
house with It In his possession."
"How, then, did he obtain that note and
Induce your uncle to cancel It? Had he
paid It at the bank during the day you
must have known of it."
"Oil, ho did not pay It at the bank. He
must I cannot understand Hint."
"Perhaps he brought the coin, secured
your uncle's Indorsement on the note and
had possession of It before ho struck Hie
blow. He may have planned to secure the
note and retain his money also. He may
have secreted the coin hero In the house.
Again, he may have hud a confederate
and tossed the bag nut of the window to
him."
"You forget," said the doctor, "that he
was bending over Hie body of my expir
ing friend with the bloody weapon In his
bund when Herman entered the room.
He could not have had time."
".Scarcely," said Herman. "I cannot
think he bad the gold," he continued, "and
how he obtained that cniu-cletl note I can
not surmise. You can examine my un
cle's desk."
Here Herman pulled open every drawer,
raised the lid, opened the folding doors,
and It was thoroughly examined. Ho also
was the entire library, chamber and bath
room, but no bag of gold was revealed,
"We will go through the other rooms,"
said the detective.
They were taken one by one Hie double
parlors, pantry, storeinom, kitchen, ser
vants' rooms at the rear of the house,
passage under the stairway, etc., hut no
hag of coin.
"I hcllcw there Is no basement to this
house?" said Sellars.
"None," wns Herman's response.
"Well, we will ascend the stairs."
"Oh, he could not have ascended them,"
Herman said, "after having committed
the murder."
"This mirch is in your Interest," said
the detecthe. "llae you ascended the
stairs since jou accompanied Miss He
Itoselte below?"
"I have not," replied Herman. "As I
Informed you, I bad retired and was
mused from sleep by my uncle's cries, I
should know his voice 1 can swear those
cries were not those of another. 1 sprang
fiom my bed, was Joined In the ball by
my cousin, and together we descended the
Mulrs."
Ily tills time, the two men were lu the
hall above.
Sobs ami female voices were omaiiatlng
from the room of the banker's daughter,
which was a front chamber on the east
side of the house, and a door opened Into
it near the head of the stairs,
"This Is my rooui," said Herman, "di
rectly back of my cousin's. The door yet
is standing open as I left It."
The two men entered the room, It was
finely appointed, for a gentleman's apart
ment. True the furniture that It contain
ed would to-day bo considered somewhat
cumbersome and considerably out of date.
The room was fully twelve feet siuure,
Tlie high-post bedstead occupied a posi
tion in the northeast comer of the room,
Its betid being against the east wall of the
home, while one side pressed against the
partition that divided the room from that
of the bunker's daughter,
Yes, undoubtedly someone had occupied
tlie bed that night. The clothing wan
cast aside just as it naturally would have
been had Its occupant leaped suddenly out
of bed. One of the largo pillows Indicated
where the head of the aroused Herman
had lain.
Hanging over the back of a chair, near
the head of the bed, was Herman's dress
shirt, with tt solitary diamond stud glis
tening on Its white bosom.
"Why, you see," ho said, "I yet have
my night shirt on."
& Hollars had noted that his hands and
tlcevca bore 119 stains of blood. Those of
Itobcrt Campbell did,
A large bureau stood between, the two
east windows, a trunk to the south of the
bureau aud a door led to the closet, lu the
Mrtuwest corner of tke room.
i&&jtZ
A Brussels carpet covered the floor,
while here and there rested Oricutnl rugs,
one lying across the brickwork that ex
tended out from tlie fireplace.
Hollars took lu everything nt a glance,
then closed nnd locked the door.
"We must not be Interrupted," he snld.
Herman Craven looked annoyed, and bit
his lips In evident perturbation.
"You wish to search my room?" he ask
ed. "The whole house," said Sellars, "not
your room alone. I wish to plnce nil mem
bers of this household beyond the pole of
suspicion nnd in doing so the coll around
Itobcrt Cnmpbell tightens."
"I I see," snld Herman.
"We will commence here," observed
Scllnrs, and he seized the quilts nnd bed
ding nnd dragged them from the bed, re
moved the pillows, overturned the mnt
tress, nnd felt It through nnd through;
moved Hie bedstend out and examined the
walls next turned to Hie bureau, nnd
withdrew every drawer, which he rum
aged over.
Herman in the menntime had raised
the lid of his trunk. "In nny wny I can
I wish to assist you," he snld.
Surely there wns no evidence of alnrm
in his voice or manner.
"You can remove the contents of your
trunk," said Sellars. "I will observe."
Herman did so, and down to the last ar
ticle. Next the closet unJerwenl Inspection.
The rug, before the fireplace, wns re
moved. A single glance nt the even sur
fate of the brickwork told the experienced
detective that there had been no hasty
tampering with the brickwork.
The other rugs were overturned, the
casing of the windows nnd door examined
no bng of coin, no blood-stained gar
ment, was revealed.
"Now you see," said Scllnrs, "I nm nble
to testify Hint I have thoroughly Inspect
ed your room, nnd that not n single evi
dence of guilt on the pnrt of Its occupant
could I discover. Itobcrt Campbell will
doubtless undertake to shift his crime to
your shoulders. You now see how liupor
tn nt to yuu that I Instituted this search
before leaving the house."
"Tlie dastard!" exclaimed Herman. "I
think he could mnko no one believe Hint
I would murder my dour old uncle. Why,
where would have been the motive?"
"The bath room," observed Sellars.
"At the end of the hull, on this floor."
"We will take that next."
"No coin here, and everything as clean
as n pin," Sellars said five minutes after
having entered it.
"Where next?" nsked Herman.
"These rooms, on thu west side of the
house."
"There are but three, nnd none of them
occupied ut this time. This rear room
next Hie bath room on the east side. Is
occupied by Millie, my cousin's maid. She
Is below with her mother, ami will hardly
return to It to-night. Hnttle has nlwnys
kept her near her on this floor."
"We will look at It." said the detective,
as lu: turned the knob of the door.
The room was tidy, but the bed tum
bled. "Millie had also retired when the mur
der was committed?" said Sellars.
"Evidently 1" observed Herman, "and
the commotion below brought her down.
Strange, too, for I hnve often heard my
cousin remark that It was almost Impos
sible to arouse her."
The west rooms were next visited.
"There are no other apartments on this
floor, save this room of Miss Delto
sette's," said Herman, ns they passed out
the door of the lust one, the one opposite
Hint of the banker's daughter.
"I will not disturb her," said Sellnrs.
"It Is unnecessary. Now for the rooms
above."
"The thlrd-tlnor rooms nro not even fur
nished," snld Herman, "and not one of
them has been occupied. You know, my
uncle built this house but four years ago.
There aro no lights above."
"Oh, well, we will puss up nnd take oA
walk through them," observed Sellars.
"Hrlug your lamp."
They did so, but there wns nothing but
the bare walls to be seen.
"This unrrow flight of stairs, I suppose,
leads to the loft," Sellars suid, as they
passed to the end of the hall.
"Yes," replied Ids companion, "to the
attic one large, low room. It contains
nothing, I understand, save old family
relics, trunks nnd various kinds of plun
der; though I have never been lu It. Han
nah has the key. In rainy weather she
hangs her washliiR there to dry. Now I
think of It, my cousin asked her for the
key nt the breakfast table yesterday
morning. She stated that she found some
old letters that interested her, aud that
she wished to search for more. I doubt
not she bus It now. It will be necessary
to arouse her to obtain the key, If you
wish to visit It."
Sellnrs glanced nt his companion.
He stood, the lamp lu one hand, looking
In the direction of the stairs they hud as
cended, as If coiltcmplating returning for
the key.
"It is useless," said Sellnrs. "I will
merely step up ami try the door to make
sure It U locked," aud he scanned the
steps closely as he mnde the remark.
"The servants take excellent enro of
the house," ho snld; "there Is 110 dirt here,
even on the stairs."
"Hannah is a foo to dirt in any form,"
replied Herman,
Sellars deliberately wulkcd up the stair
way and tried the door. "Yes, It is lock
ed," ho said. "Let us descend,"
Five minutes later the two men re-entered
the library. The parlors were light
ed, nnd there were at least a doscu of
Wilmington's leading citizens present, In
cluding the old bank attorney.
"Ah, Sellars," he exelalmed, "a terrible
blow this community has sustained. I
am glad to see you here; but Is It possible
that young Campbell cau have committed
this crime? 1 cau scarce believe a sou of
my old friend, Duncan Campbell, a mur
derer." "Sheriff Cobb has him In custody," waa
the reply, "and circumstances would Indi
cate that h kaa tke right man."
"Perfcapa fct has," aatd tb M MtMMf.
"but remember .that bat (or ycra hi WeaU
have hung the wrong man on on occa
sion." "I think," Sellars aald, calmly, "that I
may promise you that he shall not bang
the wrong man this time; neither will tba
wrong man, In my opinion, stand on the
gallows trap and In the very shadow of
death." '
The detective's keen ryes were fixed on
Herman Craven as he tittered the words.
He alone saw a perceptible start, and a
deeper pallor overspread the young man's
countenance. The fingers of his bands
closed convulsively, but In an instant-he
wns himself again.
"I have every confidence that Mr. Sel
lars will bring this crime home to the
guilty wretch who perpetrated It," ho
suid.. "I have little doubt, nor do I think
he lias, thut the murderer of my dear un
cle now occupies a celt lu Wilmington
Jail."
"Dr. Norcum has stated the facts to
me ns far ns he was able," tho attorney
said, "nnd It certainly looks very dark
for Robert Campbell, but this bag of
coin? I cannot understand that. Hero
Is Angel, the express agent who delivered
It to him. It is certain that ho left the
express olllce with It."
"He undoubtedly did. gentlemen," snld
Angel, "after having receipted for It."
"There is no evidence," observed Sel
lnrs, "that he brought it here. He may
have done so, nnd after driving the blade
of the sheath knife home huvc cost It out
the window in the darkness, to where he
expected to recover It when he mnde his
exit from the house. Again, he may hnve
had nn accomplice, who bore the gold
away. There Is nothing further that I
enn do here to-night. The Inquest may
develop many facts. It Is set for 10 o'clock
to-morrow. Good-ulght, gentlemen."
"I will accompany you to the door," sold
Hermnti.
"Hemnln with these gentlemen," tho de
tective suid. "You will have arrange
ments to mnko for your uncle's funeral.
Oood-ulght," and he stepped from tho li
brary and closed the door.
A dark form stood sobbing at tho rear
end of the hull.
"llnnnnh!"
"Follow me from the door."
Arrived there, the detective asked this
question: "Who drove the blade of that
sheath knife to your mnster's henrt?"
"I don't know Hint, Mnrs Lang," sob
bed the negress; "but I docs know who
rung do door bell, nn' dn wns In de house."
"Is the back door unlocked?" usked Sel
lnrs, "aud cau you cuter tho house from
the renr?"
"Yes, Mars Lnng."
"Then follow me."
Tlie detective and tho negress crossed
the threshold, and Scllnrs, not very softly,
closed the door.

FINIQUERRA AND LAUNDRESS.
A Kindly Act thnt Ilrnuvht About a
Orent Ills overy.
It Is nlwnys pleasing to henr n pretty
story told of 11 man who litis created
bountiful things. Two groups of
tourists were standing In thu IMttl Pal
nco before tho Inrgo pinto of puro sliver
upon which Flnlguerrn, tho great mas
ter of curly engraving, had depicted his
lovely Madonna nnd Child In a trelllsed
arbor covered with roses. As tho tour
lHts looked at tho exquisite work, an
Italian guide discoursed upon tho value,
of the silver, aud offered a magnifying
glass with which to observo tho deli
cate Hues of tlie drawing, talking volu
bly, and uttorlng ecstatically, "Uellol"
niul "UelllHsltnol" as he fell Into theat
rical poses of admiration. At tho samo
time an Italian lady was telling her
friends In an undertone the charming
anecdote of Flnlguerrn uud tho laun
dress. The artist, It seems, In mastering the
new and dltllcult art of engraving upon
metal, had ucqulrcd a singularly keen
eye aud delicate touch; and lie also pos
sessed a number of very line nnd sharp
Instruments, which be used lu his woik.
Itelug a kindly man, he sumctluied
placed both his sure lmud aud his tine
tools at the service of his friends nnd
neighbors, lu performing for them sumo
of the simpler operations of surgery,
until he acquired quite a reputation for
his skill In doctoring their hurts.
One day a poor lutiiidress who hud
been washing clothes In wringing out
a garment lu which u needle hud been
eni elessly left, inn It deeply Into lor
hand; worse yet, it broke off lu the
wound, uud 11 part remained embedded
lu tho flesh. She was lu much pnlu,
nnd on her way back from the stream
where she had been wushlng. she stop
ped at the house of the artist and was
admitted.
Filtering his studio, she hastily set
down, her wet and heavy bundle, and
held out the Injured hand, begging his
assistance. Flulguerra left his work to
help her, and after long and delicate
manipulation extracted the broken
needle. Thu woman thanked him aud
turned to go, lifting her bundle from
Its resting-place.
Then he saw that she had set It upon
one of his engravings. I.Ike all other
at that time, It wns a plate of engraved
tiictul, complete In Itself, uud regarded
ns a single uud sufficient picture, ev
hotly as if It had bceu a palutlug.
Hut as the dump bundle was raised,
tho quick eyo of Flulguerra saw tint It
had received an Impression from Iho
engraved picture beneath, aud his q del;
mind seized at once the suggestion of
the possibility of Indefinite reproduc
tion from a single original. So that
from the kindness of n great artist to a
poor waaherwouiun sprung the discov
ery which has placed the beautiful
products of the engravers' art within
the reach of all of us to-day! Youth'a
