Ketch a conitable." he told a companion. "Here's a woman traveling without a ticket and pitching a yarn that It was stolen from her in the train by a man, dressed as a worn an. who stole everything she bod as well,” he said to the policeman who came. "Want* us lo wire to Lord Somebody or other to prove ahe find one." Tho policeman, unfortunately for Olive, was an even, bigger tool than the railwayman. Going to charge her?" he asked bluntly. ■'That's for the guvnor to say, of course." "I was stabbed here In the arm,” said Olive then, pointing to the spot. "Show US.” “It Is under my dress,'' protested Olive. "Mis. Smith, our searcher. Is In the station,” said the constable. The woman was sent for and took Olive Into a private office, where the dree* bodice was taken off and the wound shown. Then the men were called In. "It’s only a tiny scratch," was the report "8ho might have done It herself. 1 found this In. her pocket:" and she handed over the paper which the mnn had left In the carriage. ;'A put up Job. sure enough,” was the verdict. “I would not have believed It possible that Englishmen could behave In such a way." cried Olive, vehemently. "I have been nearly done to.death on your line, nnd you take me for a common cheat. But you shall suffer for this, all of you. I have frtendn powerful enough to make that certain. Do what you-wilt." The woman went out then, and the two men spoke together in low tone*. The official left the room soon after to return with the stntlnnmaster. The official had given his version of it and It had evidently prejudiced him; but ho listened quietly to Oliva's atory, and then said: "You wish me to tele graph to Mr. Fenwick?" "Yes. at Belhorough Castle." "It shall be done at once, of oourst; nut I must request you to remain here until we hare the reply. Unfortunate ly, we do not know you, and we have so many strange stories told to us that we are obliged to be cautious." Ht* tone was courteoua enough, but his manner was full of doubt. For some hours Olive remained In Iho little room by herself, eating her heart out with mortification and rising apprehension. Then the station master returned and she saw by his face that there was trouble coming. "I hnve telegraphed, as you wished; but this Is the result;” and he hnnded her the message. "No truth whatever In the story. "FENWICK' She stared blankly at the message and looking up found the station mas ter's eye* tlxed keenly upon her. "Hadn't you better admit everything?” he asked, not unkindly. "Every word I havo uald Is the truth," declared Olive, with almost piteous earnestness. She was growing more and more alarmed and dlscom posed. "But this message?" was the retort. ' I can't understand IL I can't ex plain It, except that I am certain thera I* *omo horrible mistake." "Can you semi for any friend or any one who know* you in Sheffield?" "1 am an utter stranger, nnd know no one." Ho shrugged Ills shoulders at the re. ply and looked very grave. “I am afraid I have only one course to take.” "Walt,” cried Olive, suddenly, "Jf you will telegraph to Mr. Richard Case ment, solicitor, of Frampton, he will answer for me." But he shook Ida head, ' (.have al ready sent one message. I can not send another to meet with a similar ■vault, f will communicate with him; but meanwhile I ran not keep you long er In the station; and. If your atory Is correct, he will no doubt folio.stspa to have the matter put right before the proper auhnrltlea.” "What do you mean?" abe asked, turning pale,. "We have the ' strictest ' orders to prosecute In such ruses. I am not my own master In such matters. I am sor. ry for you, vary sorry. You nre a very- young girl to be m such trouble, but I have no option." "You mean you will give me In cus tody?" she cried, nghnst at the thought. "It I* too grave a caso for me to overlook. You have made a most se rious charge against the company—that nn outrage was attempted, that you sought to stop the train without result ami that you have been robbed on the Journey. Hut for that I might have taken the responsibility of releasing you. But the ease must take Its due course. It must, Indeed." For a moment Olive turned chill and faint with dismay nnd sat with bowed head and tightly clenched hands. Then she recovered her self-command and rose. 'As you will," ahe aald, calmly, "t am ready. "I will give you one more chance of contradicting your story," he -said, pausing. "1 have nothing to contradict. I have told only the troth.” she said, firmly. Something In her manner appeared to Influence him and to shake hi* belief that she wae an Impostor. He wavered, but then with a sigh and a shrug of the shoulder* he went out, to return with the constable. They all left the room together and Olive at flret hung her head In shame at her disgrace, but she nerved herself directly and lifted her head proudly. A* she did so, her name was uttered In a tone of Intense surprise. "Miss Pnrmenterl” It was Mrs. Mer rldew. Olive was passing without paying any heed,-but the stationtnaster etopped. “Do you know this young lady, madam '."’ he asked. "Of course I do." Al 111* request she returned with them to the little room, and the matter was explained io her. Mrs. Merrldew'* an- ger biased out and she stormed fu riously at all concerned. Asked If she would answer for Olive she rent led with great warmth, and that she would at once pay the price of the ticket, and, what was more, would see that the whole matter was thoroughly Investi gated. Olive waa so overjoyed at beretcupe from tlie terrible position that she was ready to welcome even surh a helper os Mrs. Merrldew, and when the two were left together, the matter haring been arranged for the present, she thanked b*r cordially.
