Is the title of a
Thrilling Serial Story
The two girls laid their heads together
over the Bradshaw, Evelyn’s dark, soft
hair making a charming contrast to Au
relia’s yellow curls. At last the journey
was made out and duly written down,
and a post card dispatched to the nncle
in Dublin.
“Have you seen Ralph anywhere?”
asked Aurelia when she had finished it.
“I am afraid I was a little tiny wee bit
cross to him this morning, and I am so
sony.”
Evelyn always seemed to stiifen when
Aurelia talked about Ralph, and under
the pretext of putting her post card in
the letter hag for her she presently left
the room and did not return.
Aurelia sat down on the hearth rug
and held two plump little hands to the
fire. It was quite impossible to go on
writing to Jane while she was there, and
I gave it up accordingly.
“I am glad Evelyn is gone,” she said,
confidentially. “Do you know why I
am glad?”
I said I could not imagine.
“Because,” continued Aurelia, nod
ding gracefully at me, “I want to have
a very, very, very serious conversation
udtli you, Col. Middleton.”
I said I should be charmed, inwardly
wondering what that little curly head
would consider to be serious conversa
tion.
“Really serious, you know,” continued
Aurelia, “not pretense. About that!”
pointing with a pink finger at the inlaid
writing table. “You know I was with
Ralph when he found it out, and I am
afraid I was a little cross to him, only
really it was so hard and they were so
lovely T , and it was partly' his fault, now,
wasn’t it, for leaving them there? He
ought to have been more careful.”
“Of course he ought,” I said. I would
not have contradicted her for worlds.
“And y'ou know I am to be married
next month, and Aunt Alice in Dublin,
who is getting my things, say's as it is to
be a winter wedding I am to be married
in a white frise velvet, and I did think
the diamonds would have looked so
lovely' with it, wouldn’t they?”
I agreed, of course.
“But I shall never be married in them
now,” she said with a deep sigh. “And
I was looking forward to the wedding so
much, though I dare say' I did tell a
naughty little story' when I said I was
not to Ralph the other night. Of course
Ralph is still left,” she added, as au
afterthought, “but it won’t he so per
fect, will it?”
I was morally certain Charles would
have to give them up, so I said, reassur
ingly:
“Perhaps y'ou may r be married in them,
after all.”
“Oh!” she said, clasping her hands to
gether, “do y'ou really think so? Do y'ou
know anything? I have not seen Ralph
since to ask him about it. Do you think
we shall really' get them back?”
“I sliould not wonder.”
“Oh! Col. Middleton, I see y r ou know.
You are a clever, wise man, and you
have foSnd out something. Who is it?
Do tell me!”
“Will you promise not to tell any' one?”
“Mayn’t I tell Ralph? I tell him every-
' thing.”
“Well, you may'tell Ralph because he
knows already'; but no one else, remem
ber. The truth is we are afraid it is
Charles.”
There was a long pause.
“I know Evelyn thinks so,” said Aure
lia in a whisper, “though she tries not
to show it, because—because”
“Because what?”
“Well, of course y r ou can’t have helped
seeing, canyon, that she and Charles”
I had not seen it; indeed I had fancied
at times that Evelym had a leaning to
ward Ralph, but I. never care to seem

BiOwer man others ui noticing these
things, so 1 nodded.
“And then, you know, people can’t be
married that haven’t any money, and
Charles and Evelyn have none,” said
Aurelia. “Oh! I am glad Ralph is well
off.”
A light was breaking in on me. Per
haps it was not Charles after all. Per
haps—
“I am afraid Evelyn is very unhappy,”
continued Aurelia. “Her room is next to
mine, and she walks up and down and up
and down in the night. I hear her when
I am in bed. Last night I heard her so
late, so late that I had been to sleep and
had waked up again. Do y'ou know’’—
and she crept close up to me with unde,
awestruck eyes—“I am going away to
morrow, and I don’t like to say anything
to any one hut you; but I think Evelyn
knows something.”
“Miss Derrick!” I said, beginning to
suspect that she possibly knew a* good
deal more than any' of us, and then sud
denly remembering that she had been on
the point of telling me something and
had been interrupted. I was getting
quite confused. She certainly would not
have wished to confide in me if my new
suspicion were correct. Considering
there was a mystery, it was curious how
everyone seemed to know something very
particular about it.
“Yes,” replied Aurelia, nodding once
or twice. “I am sure she knows some
thing. I went into her room, before
iunchqon, and she was sitting with her
head down on the dressing table, and
when she looked np I saw she had been
crying. I don’t know what to say about
it to Ralph, but y r ou know”—with a
shake of the curls—“though people may
think me only a silly little thing, yet I
do notice things, Col. Middleton. Aunt
Alice, in Dublin, often says how quickly
1 notice tilings, and I thought as you
were staying on, and seemed to be a
friend, I would tell you this,before I
went away, as you would know best
what to do about it.”
Aurelia had more insight into charac
ter than I had given her credit for. She
had hit upon the most likely person to
follow out a clew, however slight, in a
case that seemed becoming more and
more complicated. 1 inwardly resolved
that I would have it out with Miss Der
rick that very evening. Lady Mary now
came iu and servants followed sljortly
afterward with lamps. The dreary twi
light with its dim whirlwinds of driving
snow was shut out, the curtains were
drawn and tea made its appearance.
Evelyn presently returned and Charles
also, who civilly wished Lady Mary
good morning, not having seen her till
then. She handed him his tea without
a word iu reply. It was evident that
she also was aware of the robbery, and
it is hardly necessary to add that she
suspected Charles.
“Iiow is my father?” he asked, taking
no notice of the frigidity of her manner.
“He is asleep at this moment,” she re
plied. “Ralph is remaining with him.”
“He is better then, I hope?”
“He is in a very critical state and is
likely to remain in it. His illness was
quite serious enough without having it
increased by one of bis own household.”
“Ah! I was afraid that had been the
case,” returned Charles. “I knew you
had been doctoring him when he was
out of sorts yesterday. But you must
not reproach yourself, Aunt Mary. We
are none of us infallible. No doubt you
acted for the best at the time, aud I dare
say what you gave him may not do him
any permanent injury.”
“If that is intended to be amusing,”
said Lady Mary, her tea cup trembling
in her hand, “I can only say that in my
opinion willfully misunderstanding a
simple statement is a very cheap form
of wit.”
“I am so glad to hear you say so,” said
Charles, rising, “as it was at your ex
pense.” With which Parthian shot he
withdrew.
I endeavored in vain to waylay Evelyn
after tea, but she slipped away almost
before it was over and did not appear
again till - dinner time. In the mean
while my brain, fertile in expedients
on most occasions, could devise no
means by which I could speak to her
alone and without Charies’ knowledge.
I felt I must trust to chance.

CHAPTER XI.
M
'Y’kp
Evelyn sank into a chair and covered her
face with her trembling hands.
When I came down before dinner I
found Ralph and Charles talking earn
estly by the hall fire, Ralph’s hand on
his brother’s shoulder.
“You see we are no further forward
than wo were,” he was saying.
“We shall have Marston back to-mor
row,” said Charles, as the gong began to
sound. “Wo cannot take any step till
then, especially if we don’t want to put
our foot in it. I have been racking my
brains all the afternoon without the ves
tige of a result. We must just hold our
hands for the moment.”
Dinner was announced, and wo waited
patiently for a few minutes and impa
tiently for a good many more, until
Evelyn hurried down, apologizing for
being late, and with a message from
Lady Mary that we were not to wait for
iier, as she was dining upstairs in her
own room, a practice to which she seemed
rather addicted.
“And where is Aurelia?” asked Ralph.
“She i3 not coming down to dinner
either,” said Evelyn. “She has a had
neadaclie again, and is lying down. She
asked me to tell you that she wishes par
ticularly to see you this evening, as she
is going away to-morrow, and if she is
well enough she will come down to the
morning room at 9; indeed she said she
would come down anyhow.”
After Ralph’s natural anxiety respect
ing his lady love had been relieved, and
he had been repeatedly assured that
nothing much was amiss, we went in to
dinner, and a more lugubrious repast I
never remember being present at. The
meals of the day might have been classi
fied thus: Breakfast, dismal; luncheon,
dismaller (or more dismal); dinner, dis-
inallest (or most dismal). There really
was no conversation. Even I, who,
without going very deep (which I con
sider is not in good taste), have some
thing to say-on almost every subject—
even I felt myself nonplused for the
tune being. Each of us in turn got cut
a few constrained words and then re
lapsed into silence.
Evelyn ate nothing, and her hand
trembled so much when she poured out
x glass of water that she spilt some on
the cloth. I saw Charles was watching
her furtively, and I became more and
more certain that Aurelia was right
and that Evelyn knew something about
the mystery of the night before. I must
and would speak to her that very even
ing.
“Bitterly cold,” said Ralph, when at
last we had reached the dessert stage.
“It is snowing still, and the vrind is
getting up.” *
In truth the wind was moaning round
the house like an uneasy spirit.
“That sound iu the wind always
means snow,” said Charles, evidently
for the sake of saying something. “It
is easterly, I should think. Yes,” after
a pause, when another silence seemed
imminent, “there goes the 8 o’clock
train. It most bo quite a quarter of an
hour late, though, for it has struck 8
some time. I can hear it distinctly.
The station is three miles away, and you
never hear the train unless the wind is
in the east.”
“Come, Charles, not three miles—two
miles and a half,” put in Ralph.
“Well, two and a half from here down
to the station, but certainly three from
the station up here,” replied Charles;
and so silence was laboriously avoided
bj' diligent small talk, until we returned
to the drawing room, thankful’ there at
least we could take up a book and be si
lent if we wished. We all did wish it, ap
parently. Evelyn was sitting by a lamp
when we came in with a book before
her, her elbow on the table, shading her
face with a slender, delicate hand. She
remained motionlees, her eyes fixed upon
the page, hut I noticed after some time
that she had never turned it over

Charles may have read his newspaper,
but if he did it was with one eye upon
Evelyn all the time. Between watching
them both I did not, as may he imagin
ed, make much progress myself. How
was I to manage to speak to Evelyn
alone and vntiiou,. Chaales icnowledge?
At last Ralph, who had gone into the
morning room, opened the drawingroom
door', and put his head in.
“Aurelia has not come clown yet, and
it is a quarter past 9. I wish you would
run up, Evelyn, and see if she is com
ing.”
“She is sure to come!” replied Evelyn,
without raising her eyes. “She said she
must see you.”
. Ralph disappeared again, and the
books and papers were studied auew
with unswerving devotion. At the end
of another ten minutes, however, the
impatient lover reappeared.
“It is half-past 9,” he said, in an in
jured tone. “Do pray run up, Evelyn.
I don’t think she can be coming at all. I
am afraid she is worse.”
Evelyn laid down her book and left
the room. Ralph sauntered back into
the morning room, where we heard him
beguiling his solitude with a few chords
on the piano.
Presently Evelyn returned. She was
pale even to the lips, and her voice falt
ered as she said:
“She has not gone to bed, for there is
a light in her room; but she would not
answer when I knocked and the door is
locked.”
“All of which circumstances are not
sufficient to make you as white as
a ghost,” said Charles. “I think, even
if Aurelia has a headache, you would
bear the occurrence with fortitude.
My dear child, you do not act so well
off the stage as on it. There is some
thing on your mind. People don’t up
set water at dinner and refuse all food
except pellets of pinched bread for noth
ing. WhatAs it?”
Evelyn sanu into a chair aud covered
her face with, her trembling hands.
“Yes, I thought so,” said Charles,
kneeling down by her and gently with
drawing her hands. . “Come, Evelyn,
what is it?”
“I dare not say.” And she turned
away her face and tried to disengage
her hands, but Charles held them firmly.
“Is it about what happened last
night?” he asked, in a tone that was
kind, but that evidently intended to
have au answer.
“Yes.”
“And do you know that I am sus
pected?”
“You, Charles? Never!” she cried,
starting up.
“Yes, I. Suspected by my own fa
ther. So if you know anything, Evelyn
—which I see you do—it is your duty to
tell us, and to help us in every way you
can.”
He had let go her hands now and had
risen.
“I don’t know anything for certain,”
she said, “but—but we soon shall. Aure
lia knows and she is going to tell Ralph.”
“Miss Grant!” 1 exclaimed. “She
knew nothing at tea time. She was
asking me about it.”
“It is since then.” continued Evelyn.
“I went up to her room before dinner to
ask her for a fan that I had lent her. She
was packing some of her things, and the
floor was strewn with packing paper and
parcels. She gave me my fan, and was
going on putting her things together,
talking all the time, when she asked me
to hand her a glove box on the dressing
table. As I did so my eye fell on a piece
of paper lying together with others, and
I instantly recognized it as the same that
had been wrapped lound the diamond
crescent when Col. Middleton first showed
us the jewels. I should never have no
ticed it—for though it was rice paper it
looked just like the other pieces strewn
about—if I had not seen two little angu
lar tears which I suddenly remembered
making in it myself when Gen. Mars
ton asked me not to pull it to pieces,
which I suppose I had been absently do
ing. I made some sort of exclamation
of surprise, and Aurelia turned round
sharply and asked me what was the mat
ter. As I did not answer she left her
packing and came to the table. She saw
in a moment what I was looking at. I
had turned as red as fire, and she was
quite white. ‘I did not mean you to see
that,’ she said at last, quietly taking’up
the paper. ‘I meant no cne to know
until I had shown it to Ralph. Do you
know where I found it?’ and she looked
hard at me. I could only shake my
head. I was too much ashamed of a
suspicion I had had to ho able to get out
a word. ‘I am very sorry,’ continued
Aurelia, ‘but I am afraid it will be my
duty to tell Ralph, whatever the conse
quences may be. I have been thinking
it over, and I think he ought to know.
I am going to show it him to-nigat
after dinner,’ and she put it in her
pocket and then began to cry. I did
not know what to say or do. I was so
frightened at the tho tight of what was
coming, and as the dressing bell rang at
that moment I was just leaving the
room when she called me back.
“ ‘I can’t come down to dinner/ she
said. ‘I hate Ralph to see me with red
eyes. Tell him I shall come down after
ward, at 9 o’clock, and that I want to
see him particularly; only don’t tell h.m
what it is about or mention it to r ny
one else. I did not mean any one to
know till he did.’
“She began to cry afresh and I made
her lie down and put a shawl over h r,
and then left her, as I had still to dre s,
and I knew that Aunt Mary was not
coming down. I was late as it was.”
“Is that all?” said Charles, who had
been listening intently.
“All,” replied Evelyn. “We shall
soon know the worst now.”
“Very soon,” said Charles. “Ralph
may come in here at any moment.
Evelyn and Middleton, will you have
the goodness to come -with me?’’ And he
led the way into the hall.
We could hear Ralph in tho next
room humming over an old Irish melody
with an improvised accompaniment.
Now show me her room,” said
Charles, “and be quick about it.”
Evelyn looked at him astonished, and
then led the way up stairs,along the pict
ure gallery to another wing of the
house. She stopped at last before a door
at the end of the passage, dimly lighted
by a lamp at the further end. There
was a light under the door, and a bright
chink in the keyhole, but though we list
ened intently wo could hear nothing
stirring within.
“Knock again,” said Charles to Evelyn.
“Louder!” as her hand failed her.
There was no answer. As we listened
the light within disappeared.
“Bring that lamp from the end of the
p;issage,” said Charles to Evelyn, and
she brought it.
“Hold it there,” he said; “and you,
Middleton, stand aside.”
He took a few step3 backward and then
flung himself against the doorjwithhis
whole force, ft cracked and groaned,
but resisted.
“The lock is old. It ie bound to go,”
he said, panting a little.
“Really, Charles,” I remonstrated—“a
lady's private apartment! Miss Derrick,
; I wonder you allow this.”
Charles retreated again, and then
made a fresh and even fiercer onslaught
| on the door. There was a sound of
splintering wood aud of bursting screws,
and in another moment the door flew
open inward, and Charies was precipi
tated headforemost into the room, his
! evening pumps flourishing wildly in the
air. In an instant he was on his feet
! again, gasping hard, and had seized the
I lamp out of Evelyn's hand. Before I had
| time to remonstrate on the liberty that
! he was taking we were all three in the
room.
It was empty!
In one corner stood a box half packed,
with various articles of clothing lying
by it. On the dressing table was a
whole medley of little feminine knick-
knacks, with a candlestick in the midst,
the dead wick still smoking in the socket
and accounting for the disappearance of
the light a few minutes before. The fire
had gone out, hut on a chair by it was
laid a little black lace evening gown,
evidently put out to be worn, while over
the fender a dainty pair of silk stockings
had been hung, and two diminutive
black satin shoes were waiting on the
hearthrug. The whole aspect of the
room spoke of a sudden and precipitate
flight,
“Bolted!” said Charles, when he had
recovered his breath. “And so the mys
tery is out at last! I might have known
there was a woman at the bottom of it.
Unpremeditated, though,” he continued,
looking round. “She meant to have
gone to-morrow, but your recognition of
that paper frightened her, though she
turned it off well to gain time. No fool
that. She only had an hour, and she
made the most of it, and got off, no
doubt, while we were at dinner by the
8:02 London train, which is the last to
night, and after the telegraph office was
closed, tool She knew nothing could be
done till to-morrow. She has more wits
than I gave her credit for.”
“I distrusted her before, though I had
no reason for it, hut I never thought she
was gone,” said Evelyn, trembling vio
lently, .and still looking round the room.
“I knew it,” said Charles, “from the
moment I saw tlie light through the
keyhole. A keyhole with a key in it
would not have shown half the amount
of light through it; and a locked door
without a key in it is safe to have been
locked from the outside. Had she a
maid with her?”
“No,” replied Evelyn, “she used to
come to me, next door, when she wanted
help—but not often—because I think she
knew I did not like her, though I tried
not to show it.”
“Well, we have seen the last of her,
or I am much mistaken,” said Charles.
“And now,” he added, compressing his
lips, “I suppose I must go and tell
Ralph.”
“Oh, Ralph, Ralph!” gasped Evelyn,
until a sudden sob. “And lie was so
fond of her!”
“And so you distrusted her before,
Evelyn. And why did you not mention
that fact a little sooner?”
