She walked with her head down. h in: to meet no one she know, an hurried through the hall, almost. deserted now, as people were preparing for dinner. Suddenly turn- mg into one of the many intricate corridors, she stumbled against some one who had just come down the stairs she was about to ascend. “I beg your pardon !” she exclaimed has- til , and involuntarily looked up. ' corridor was dimly lit, but at the foot of the stairs stood a bronze figure in armor, holding a lamp, and the light from the lamp struck full upon the face of the person with whom she had collided. With a little cry Elspeth started back, for the face was the same that she had seen in her room, framed in the white mystery of mgmlight. For a second the eyes, the too bril- liant eyes, gazed into hers with an intent and strangely piercing look, al- most an anxious look, it seemed. Then the tall man bowed slightly, murmured something in response to he1_request for pardon, and passed-on2 Elspeth stood still, watching, half inclined to follow, yet not daring to do so; for there could be no doubt that this was a man of flesh and blood, and no ghost. He was in mod- ern dress, and did not vanish by ap- parently melting through the wall, but walked quietly, if somewhat has- tily, round the corner into another corridor. The features were as like as before to Captain Oxford’s, but now that she 11:11 seen them in a fuller light Elspeth told herself that it was diffi- cult to believe the man was wearing a disguise. The short, pointed beard looked absolutely natural, and the face seemed much older than that of Captain Oxford. ______ -n- 1 1,11_.‘ ‘Ur’vw-.. v_-_v-â€" “Who can it be?” she wondered. “Is. it a guest of the hotel? Extra- ordinary, if so, that I’ve never seen hls face beforeâ€"almost impossible. Yet he must have been in the house, or staying near by for some time, be- cause it’s almost a week since that night when the ghost-figure stepped out through the wall into my room. Now that I’ve seen him againâ€"for it must be the same; I can’t be mis- takenâ€"it makes that apparition all the more mysterious. I must find out who this gerson is.” Slowly t e girl went on toward her own noom, wondering how she was to accomplish what she wanted, now that she was no longer on pleasant terms with Mr. McGowan, and now that her odd friendship with Mr. Grant was at end. Suddenly, however, she thought of Mrs. Warden, the housekeeper. Perhaps if she describ- ed the man she had just met (she did not mean to refer to the stranger meeting) the old woman would know whether or not there was such a guest in the H dro. She t rned back, therefore, and found her way to the housekeeper's room, which she had had occasion to visit once or twice before. Mrs. Warden was there. and as she had heard of the accident, Elspeth had to tell her all about it, before she could hope to obtain any satis- faction on another subject. Indeed, the old housekeeper flattered herself that Miss Dean must have come to her room for the express purpose of HUI 1W1" IV; V... giving the details. Elspeth gathered this from Mrs. Warden’s naive thanks, and it was not worth while to hurt .her feelings by disabusing her of the impression. Accordingly the girl did not contradict liar, but merely said, “By-the-bye, I just met in the hall a middle-acted man with a short, grizzled heard, wonderfully brilliant dark eyes, and features rath- er like Captain Oxford’s. I never met him before, and l \‘ffi‘ldef if he cm: be stopping at the hotel. (j'an yor tell from my description of him .9” ' Mrs. Warden looked puzzled and shook her head. “Indeed, I can’t.

It would be here but for a fortnight longer. She must go. and she did not know where. How she had admired this room a week ago, and how proud she had been of it! How she had enjoyed the thought of all the nice books whose gilded covers winked at her from be- hind glass doors. How her coura 0 had risen to the task of finding a so 11 tion for all the mysteries unassisted by any one. Now she would go away and never know the explanation._ I-‘ Worst of all, what wbuld Mr. Ken- rith think when he heard. perhaps v.lv‘.=.- -- - The man came in and placed the tray on the table, but having done ,so, he lingered. “There’s been a ter- Lrible thing happened in the night, :miss,” said he, with that unctuous : enjoyment of the sensational so often .seen among persons of his class, .“Lady Ardclifie and Countess Rade- polskoi have both been robbed of all from Mr. McGowan, that she had be- haved so foolishly that she had been asked to resign. She had not dared let herself dwell upon this thought before, but now it overwhelmed her, and the long re- strained torrent of her tears burst forth. She could eat no dinner, nor could she sleep that night, though she was undisturbed by any influence outside her own mind. Her head ached when she rose in the morning, and she was glad to hear the knock which told her that the servant had arrived with tea and breakfast. She was not hungry, but the tea would do her good, she thought. i 1 1 11-- iheir jewels. Had Elspeth herself been in the plot and learned thus suddenly of its discovery she could hardly have been news of the robbery. Yesterday Mr. Kenrith had lo.“ his jewels in the most mysterious circum- stances; and now Lady Ardcliffe and Countess Rodepolskoi had been rob- bed. It was at least a strange coin- cidence that these events had fol- lowed so quickly one upon the other. Elspeth felt as if she were groping in the dark for a master key which could open all doors and 'lead her at length into the hidden place where the secret of these mysteries lay. It was as if she caught a glimpse of that key, shining through the twilight, and then, just as she put out her hand, it vanished again. The servant could embroider his story with very few details. He knew only that the robbery had not been discovered until morning. The maid of the Countess and the maid of Lady Ardcliffe had given the alarm, and it was said that the" two ladies must have been chloroformed, as the at- nmsphere of their rooms was still heavy with the drug. When Elspeth discovered that the man had little real information, she did not encourage him to stay and gossip, but hurried through her breakfast, and went out to learn what she could for l‘ierself. ‘ ’:“‘j ‘A ‘AA i:33'°'b5'€ii'o'"' otwhio'fi "3th pet! it it once.’ For. a]. by :11 mg Stores. was scarcely surprlseu to see Lasdhye Ardcliffe and the Countess both 111 the great hall, talkmg earnestly to Mr. McGowan.
