Beck, nor the key.”
H e paused again and once more
seemed disinclined to go on.
"W ell,” said M. Blouet, “ we have the
mystery; now for the solving of it.”
“Gentlemen,” continued M. Lebon,
amlilng sagely as he tipped off tho
ashes of his cigarette. “I have told you
all that anybody but myself knows.
Is tbat not enough? You now kuow
w hat all Paris knew. Are you not satis-
fled?” and he laughed quietly to him
self.
W e smoked for a few moments in
alienee, both M. Blouet and myself sur
mising that the best way to hear the
rest of the story wag to leave the nar
rator completely to himself. Iu a mo-
1 incut the latter began again, speaking
rapidly and In short sentences.
“ In 1848 her husband owned a
country bouse near Passy.
She was
| then young nod gay. No chain or key
I adorned her neck then. One duy she
was surprised by her lord, shutting
somebody In the wardrobe. A servant
I had betrayed her. The Muscovite
Othello turned the key twice iu the
wardrobe, took it out, then told bis
w ife to follow him.
A traveling

villa. More dead than alive, the un
happy woman obeyed. When the hus
band bad placed her In the carriage lie
gave an order In a low voice to the
coachman. ‘Keep this key.’ tie Hald to
his wife. ‘I have forgotten something
and w ill return,’ then went back to tbe
house.
"H e returned, according to his prom
ise, but as the carriage descended the
hill the poor woman saw flames issu
ing from the windows of tbe villa. She
fainted. Three days she remained un
conscious. On regaining her senses she
perceived that a gold chain wag rh eted
around her neck, to which was attach
ed a golden key. the exact counterpart
of the original, bearing an inscription.
She wished to kill herself, but her bus-
band pointed to the Inscription und
added tbat If she would save her fain
tly from dishonor she must ever ob
serve i t She was therefore condemned
to live. H e r strange necklace excited
much curiosity In Paris. A t last her
tyrant allowed her to retire to a quiet
retreat on the express stipulation that
she would not attempt to destroy her
self during his lifetime. H is death re
leased her from thia condition.”

Some three weeks later I was calling
on my friend Lebon, who wished to
show me some old manuscripts that he
had been collecting. H e produced a
large box o f rosewood, which be casu
ally remarked contained Ills fam ily pa
pers. T a my astonishment, be drew
from hto pocket the mysterious key and

"Certainly," I replied grimly.
"B y tbe way, though. It wouldn’t
make a bad story, would It? I think I
w ill work It up—elaborate It a little,

I toft the bouse feeling deeply morti

a march on him. I have done so.—Cri
