“John/’ Bays tlio publisher to the book„

“Let’s see,” rejoined tho publisher; "how

A LIFE OF CRIME—FROM THE EX
PERIENCE OF A DETECTIVE.
One of tho most remitrkable cases that
ever camo within mv experience was that
of Lucille Dutton. Fascinating, brilliant,
dashing, possessing an exquisite grace of
manner and rare conversational powers,
that charmed every ono who camo within
the sphere of ber influence. Until her
crimes were known and her arrest attempt
ed, she reigned here an acknowledged
belle. Even the most jealous of her own
sex admitted the wondrous spell exercised
by her singular and surpassing beauty.—
An actress, a vocalist, it would have been
no extravagant eulogy to'have called her a
primndonua. Tall beyond the average of
women, her slender, graceful form was
modeled into an exquisite symmetry that
would have been a sculptor’s ideal. Cur
ling, silky tresses of nut brown hair, shaded
a face fair and delicate as a obild. Great
luminous black eyes flashed from beneath
the beautiful laslros with a strange tnostno
rio power, that few indeed had the {lower
to resist. Thio expression, combined with
her rare intellectnal gifts, made her reg
nant over many a heart that had never be
fore felt the spell of a woman’s charms.—
She had come to New Orleans as a vocal
ist. Her engagements was attended with
a success never before equaled by the most
accomplished professional. Night after
night the theater was crowded with her
admirers. Reff appearance was ever the
signal of an enthusiasm all but wild. As
the weird light of the prosoenium flashed
on jewel and gem, and tho queenly form,
radiant in beauty, stood before the multi
tude, who awnyed to the magic charm
and impulse of tone and voioo. 1 have often
fancied her supernatural. Youth and age
alike felt its influence. There was a thrill
in the low utterance, that trembled on the
eir like the eo© vibration of a harp whose
NO. 14.
strings the wind had struck, and rising in
fulness and strength of tone until n rich
delicious harmony filled the vu*t building
with a magic cadence which no car attuned
to musio could resist. Her name »»< „ n
every window along the fashionable th.ir*
oughfare. Before the charm of th.it
strange, wondrous beauty, fashion forgot
exclusiveness, society . pem and its doors'?—
1 ettod nnd caressed in every circle, admir
ed nnd loved, her heart remained insensi
ble to so much flattery, and homage of men
and women was reeeiTcd as if it were her
due.
It was at a time when her fume was
greatest, and her success in fashimahlo
life most assured, tnat an event <ki •uitoJ
wliioh changed it ail and precipituted a
catastrophe _ which I cannot even now re
flect upon withmit a sense of puin. A few
month botoro her advent hero, a series of
the most, startling tragedies hud occurred
in Montreal. An entire family had been
poisoned by a Governess. The papers
were never weary of tho epi: ndu of hor
rors the recital furnished. The instrument
of this wickedness had tied, aud with such
oonsnmate skill had her flight been contriv
ed, that not even a trace of her was left.
It appeared that her beauty nnd acconu
plishments had won the nffections tfa
youth, whose marriage with her his parents
opposed. Driven to desperation, llarlow
) incant had, in a moment of frenzy, per
ished by his own hand. Over the corpse of
her lover the governess had sworn n dire
revenge. How faithfully she adhered to
her guilty oath, the rapid dcoreaso of his
relatives full well attested.
Tho story of tho Canadian homicides hod
long since reached us, hut had left but lit
tle impression, ns a matter with wliioh we
had nothing to do.
One night a gentleman returning from
the theater, eutored our office. Him look
was disturbed, and his face wore un ex
pression of profound agitation.
Mr- I handed him a chair, nnd after
a moment’s hesitation, he inquired if I had
beard of tho tragedy at Montreal.
I replied that I had.
"Have you no suspicion of the actor in
that fearful drama’?”
"The governess, of course.” *
"Yes, hut have yon uo suspicion of who
the governess is ?”
"Certainly not.”
“Would you like me to point her out to
you ?”
"Most certainly I would-”
"And you would utrOst her if I did ?”
"Certainty.”
"Then, sir, your task is easy ; the wo.
man who is setting your city wild at pres
ent, the fascinating Lucille Dutton, is tho
person.”
"What ?” I exclaimed, “yon are mad 1”
“Not I, I speak advisedly—l know the
woman ; am a resident of Montreal, and
have known her for years.”
The telegraph was at once put in requin
stttoh, and In less tmm an honr nil the in
formation sought for was obtained. There
was no longer a doubt ; the enchantress of
the theatre was the murderess g 1 ’ Montreal.
We were warranted in takin/ er in cus
tody at once ; hut as there was ho probabil
ity of escape, we delayed until morning.—
I confess I felt a strange reluctance in ex
ecuting tho duty I had to peforra. I ads
mired the beautiful creature, despite her
crimes. I thought I could understand how
these could hnvo been committed without
her being wholly bad. Maddened by the
death of ono she loved ; lmting with hitter
nnimosity those who were, in a measure,
responsible for it, and incited to the deed
by the fierce, revengeful naturo of her rncc,
it seemed to me more the crime of others
tlinn her own. Still I would do my duty.
Early the ensuing morning Mr. I. ami
myself visited her apartments at a fashion
nble boarding house on Camp street. Al
though the hour was early, sho was up, and
to tho servants inquiring if two gontlemen
oould ho admitted to see her, returned an
affirmative answer. The bright golden
sunshine of the early spring morning
gleaming in at the open window, filling the
room with light. It shown on the beauti
ful lady like a crown—rod with crime, she
might have been—hut tho nuthrown hair,
in the sheen of those golden rays, seemed
plory crowned. Robed in white, a si agio
jowel flashing from the belt that onoireled
her waist—a bud of the early spring roses
peeped from her hair. llow beautiful sho
looked—bow innocent. My tongue faul
tered—my utterance indistinct as I told my
errand.
“And yon believe me gnilty ?”
“By no means, lady ; I but execute my
duty/’ . 3
“You do right.”
Her voice was low and sad—so exqnisito
.ly sorrowful that, tears oame into my eyes.
A single hectic flush fevered on the smooth
round cheek as she rose and walkod across
th# room to an esoritioire that stood in the
corner. The great Inminons eyes were
sheated now, and the long dark lashes
drooped over them. She sat down at tho
desk and leaned her head on her hand for
a moment; then searched for a paper or a
pnreel in a nook in the desk. I did not
observe her closely until sho turned around
facing me.
“I am gaily,” she said— the same low.
tone of Borrow ; “yes, guilty in the eyes of
the world, but not iu the sight of Heaven.
I was insane when I did the deed. Insan
ity has its cunning—dolirotn its passionate
sense of revenge. They broke my heart,.
destroyed in their bloom all the flowers of
my life. I am a maniac even , now, for I
feel no tn my crime, r hario long
looked for this boar. lum ready ior it.—
My dead body the law may have, but with
no sonso of shame.”
As she spoke she swallowed a dull gray
ish looking powder, threw up her arms, aud
fell back in her seat—dead.—New Orleans
Picayune, 15th alt.
