The atmosphere’bzid been placed upon a couch in the was damp and chilling. I concluded not , to go very far. so I turned toward same room where they found her. What a changi- had come over those oncc calm features! A look of horror was the private apartments of a friends who .1 imprinted on her face. the muscles of was at that time chief superintendent of the detective force of Scotland Yard. A brisk walk of a few squares brought me to his door. and I was promptly admitted. I had barely ex- changed greetings with him when we were Interrupted by the entrance of one of the force who. taking the chief aside. made some communication in a low tone, which I was unable to hear. The chief answered him, however, with less circumspection. "I believe you’ve made a valuable capture, Barton,” he said. in a tone that implied great salsiftlction; " as soon as the prisoner arrives bring him in here where we will not be disturbed." ; . As soon as the door had closed on, Barton he turned to me. " \Vharton," he exclaimed. “I believe we have at last apprehended the man who is responsible for the Neville af- fair." "What’s that I" I cried; “I thought the newspapers stated that the Nevilles had died from natural causes, and that the murder theory had no foundation. â€"that it had. in fact, been thoroughly exploded. They even said that the poâ€" lice and your department had dropped the case and accepted the doctor's state- . ment that they hurl died a natural death. although they “ere unable to agree wholly upon the cause for the some." “ You are quite right about the newspapers," said the chief dryly; "they did make that statement. but some. times they fail to read the minds or discover the inner workings of this do- partment. Duroch and myself were not so easily satisfied. even after the ver- dict rendered by the honorable M. D.'s. So we have been investigating quietly â€"so quietly that none of our own force even knew we were still working on the case. The chief paused. handed me a elâ€" gar and lighted one for himself, and then resumed meditatively: “ This has been a. very strange and mysterious affair from the first. The Nevilles. as you know. are considered very respectable people, and their wealth enables them to mingle with the very best society and to get all the en- joyments possible from life. Of late years the doctor has not followed his profession. except to attend his friends or to relieve the poor and suffering: waifs of humanity who were without means to secure the services of any othâ€" l er physician. l "His wife was also a kind woman. charitable and gentlehearted, who still retained a goodly share of that beauâ€"l ty which in her youth was most re-‘ markable. When they first came here. they were a fine-looking couple, he be- ing about 28 or 30 and she four or five years his junior. She was at that time the most idolized woman in society. She was a «little above the medium height. with a well-rounded form. and moving with the ease and grace of a queen. ller dark. glossy hair formed a crowning contrast for her fair face. and tinted cheeks. ller teeth were like pearls and shone through her lips as they parted in frequent smiles. which were ever ready for her friends and ad- mirers. If that did not captivate them, the roguish 100k from her dark eyes, which usually accompanied the smile, would. for she was a finished etiquette. " Nearly all the men were in love with her. and envied the doctor, who kept watch over her flirtatious. for he was a little jealous of her. but so ef- fectively concealed this weakness that only a close observer could notice it. "The first few years of their life here 5 The lllndoo's Favorite Mclhml of llsranlnl.“ they were the gayest couple in society, in fact, its very pulse. 'l'hey attend- ed all the receptions and grand func- tions and gave more bails and parties than any others of their set. lint. as they grew older they quieted down. as most people do, and. leaving the gay and giddy whirl for the younger ones. took their place among the quiet and steady elders. " Of late years they spent the. greatâ€"1 or portion of their time at home, while in the city. and seemed to enjoy each nthor‘s society so much as to lw wholly satisfied therewith. 'l'hey somclinles‘ had small quarrels. it is true, as we: have since learned, but what malodl doves do not-and these never were heard outside their own household. Nearly twenty years they lived here lhus. With nothing to disturb their couX'SP. “Just about six months ago the doc- mr furnished all his servants with lickâ€" .-rs for lllt‘ theater. so lh:lr evening he and his Wife were alone in lhe hnuscm :l thing that rarely happened. About. 3330 or 10 o'clock the door hell rzillg‘ :nd the doctor. who opened the door, found a poorly-dressed youngster stand- 'ng on the stops. and upon his cheeks, ubich were none too clean, werc traces of tears. | " Hp broughl lhe lad inside. who. as‘ woo as he had recovered sufficient,‘ breathe. told the doctor. bolus-on gobs, that. his mother was very ill and prob- ably dying; and, being too poor to' “mploy a physician. be had come lni lsk if Dr. Nevilll- “'lilllll not be good} --nough _to go and see his mother. ln-l vestlgatlon revealed the fact. that they‘ bred 10.31 poor quarter of the citv." “935le fly» miles away; and the bid “lalmed that he had run nearly every» ,‘lep of the distance. ‘ l "Neville did not wish to go and leave his Wife alone in the: house. but. shf‘ inststed she was not afraid. and“ said the. servants would soon he homel in. keep her company. So the doctohl With the boy. went out and hitched upl the horse. After kissing his wife good“ night and continuing her to keep lhel door locked until he or the servants returned. he. drove off. with the lad as pilot. " The servants returned home. about an hour afterward and found the front door unfastenf‘d. They took no special notice of this. but locked it. after they had entered the house. They all went directly to their rooms: but. Mrs. Ne- ville's maid after laying aside her wraps. came down to the drawing-room «where she found her mistress lying u n the floor. apparently in a swoon, S 9. called for help. and then, raisin Mrs. 'Neville's head, tried the usua method adopted in case of a fainting 3911. Her efforts proved of no avail. er lady's arms and limbs were appar- ently becoming stiff and paralyzed. Be- ing unable to find the doctor in the house. the servant called another phy- sician. who arrived about 12 o'clock,and who, u n examination. told them that Mrs. eville was dead. “'Dead 1’ they exclaimed; 'she can- not be dead 1’ and with that they all burst into tears. for all the household were attached to her. l l Which were pinched and drawn. {‘3 though she had suffered extrcmc Wm before death relieved her; 33 I “.h" served that her body had become stiff and rigid in so short a. time. As the physician had said that death was caus- Wl by a severe spasm, I did 110$ 81'8“” ly wonder at this. " As yet no one knew whathad be- come of Dr. Neville, and no informa- tion' was received from him until 5 o'clock that morning. when he drove up to the house. He Stopped, and, after hitching his horse. cllnle rapidly up ”‘0 slaps, and I met him at the door- A9 800" as he had recovered from hls sur- Prise at seeing me lhere at that early hour he asked what had caused me to I‘fl." them a visit at such an unusual lime. " Have you not heard’o" I asked. _ “Heard? heard what? Expla‘" yourself. Has anything happened? ”Yes. doctor. And whcrc have you l’f‘t'n. that you do not know you no longer have a wife?" "The“ old man staggered back. 38 though he. had been struck a heavy NOW. and, passing his hand across his forehead, cxcla'lmcd: “My God, manl what do you mean?" “He soon learned when I brought him inlo the room where she lay. ls‘all- mg on his knnes beside her. he called h" h." her name, and begged her to Speak to him, and when he. finally real- ized that she was no more tears flow- ed fast and his grief would have melt- ed any heart. “But lel. us draw a curtain here and take up the story three months furth- er on. “The doctor had dismissed all his ser- vants except the housekeeper and her husband, who attended to the horses and all the out.of>door work. One even- ing these two had obtained permission to spend the night; at the home of the. housekeepers sister, who lived in a dis- tant part of the city and who was very ill. They (lid not relurn until 8 o’clock the next morning, and on their arrival were surprised to find the house still closed. The door was fastened by a. night latch. and. as they had a key, they let themselves in. The housekeep- er prepared breakfast and then went to call her master. "As she received no response to her repeated calls and knocking. she came down-stairs and sent her husband up, but he met with no‘better success. Try- ing the door. he found it unlocked, and on entering discovered the room empty and the bed undisturbed, showing that it had not been slept in that night. As the doctor, since his wife‘s death. had often slept in a. chair in the drawing- goom, the man went there to look for lm. ‘On entering he saw the doctor lying on the floor, in a cramped condition: and on going to his side saw that be was ldead. He immediately notified the p0- lice of the district and sent word to lme at the yard. I left an inspector in charge of my office, and together with Barton. started for the house. “When we arrived there we found the superintendent of that district wilb a few of the police already in charge. The superintendent and a. sergeant were in the room with the body. which was still lying on the floor where it had been found. The limbs were slightly bent. at the knees. the hands were clinched, and on the back of the right. hand was a slight scratch. which might have been made with a. pin. But the hand was of a purple tinge. Upon his face. was that same awful look I had noticed upon his wife's. "The superintendent said hc did not know whether there had been foul play or not; and to help him decide he. hrld sent for several physicians to come. and look at the body. Aside from the slight wound on his hand, there was no indication of such, and no other suspici- ous circumstances, except the recent like .death of his wife. to suggest it.

' the expense of clnlhing. somelilncs at the expense of greater necessaries of life. The making and the slol'illg away of wealth in this form is the national peculiarity of the country.

Mann gives a. bit. of advice to boys: " You are. made to be kind, boys. If there is a boy in school who has a. club foot don't. let him know you ever saw it. If there is a. lame boy. assign him to some. part of the game that doesn't require running. If there is a. hungry one, give him part of your din- ner. If there is a dull one. help him to get his lessons. If there is a bright one, _be not envious of him; for, if one boy. 13 proud of his talents and anoth- er IS envxous of them, there are two great wrongs and no more talent than before.

Such descriplionS, given by close ob- servers, leave no doubt of the electri- cal charactcr of the cyclone. but ”163' hardly suggest its real possibilities of destructiveness. Those who have studied the subject with the best up- porrunities for understanding it have :“l’includcd that the air at. the centre of the swiftly whirling vortex has been solidified by the. enormous pressure up- on lt. They explain lilo cyclone's UNPARALIJCLEI) l’()\\'ER. for destructiveness on llic theory that- instead of being a more electrical wind- storm it is a. column of solid air at the ccntre. of an immense. aerial whirl- pool. revolving inwardly and full of debris of all kinds sucked up along its course. When this solidified column . strikes a frame house it generally reâ€" duces it to splinters, as was often the case in the great Mansfield cyclone in- vestigated by Prof. ’l‘yce. It is said that other houses which are not struck will come sometimes, and lhcn it is lhal the camper. realizes that lhcrc is such a thing as rheulnallsm. “l’rcâ€" vcnlion is better than euro," and all campers will do Well to include lll lhclr supplies a mineral water thlll‘h \vlll prevent lbis,Sl.

Try It. at. all are often wrecked as if by ex» plosion when the. air in them rushes to fill the vacum created by the vortex in its passage. It. is supposed that in forming and until it begins to dissipate its force the cyclone revolves inwardly, so that the. pressure of the entire storm is brought to bear on the air at its cen- tre. If this is a correct theory it is not a metaphor to say that the air at the centre is “as SOll\i as steel." for it is hardly doubtful that bydrogcn and the thinnest gasses would be instantly solidified by even a less pressure. The weight of this compressed air accounts for the fact that such storms nearly always follow the valleys. As for reasons of economy railroad tracks al- ways follow the valleys as much as ssible. the cyclone is thus enabled to allow the track by force of gravity as well as by its electrical attraction for the steel rails. And as every railroad track leads to the towns the 0 clone rarely fails to find a fair field or its work of havoc. The Triumphant Trio.
