Cleared a Murder Mystery.

TO ne Editor:
On the Esd of September, 1884, four
companions and myself started on a
pleasure trip up the Waikiki River In
Orange County. It was beautiful day
for sail, the sun being far across the
horizon and the wind shifting from north
TO east made our progress much easier
than If We had made use of the oars.
On we sailed, enjoying the sport hugely,
when TO our surprise we beheld the heay-
ems quickly covering with huge. dismal
clouds. Quickly we started for the
shore, but ere we had scarcely moved q
boats length we became fastened to some
thing hidden from our gaze beneath the
boat.
Amazed aud dumfounded we looked
ut each other, for at this time huge
sparks of electricity were flying through
the atmosphere. There we were a prey
TO the storm and the fiery elements. ex-
pecting every moment to be tumbled into
watery grave; What was holding us
we had asked each other. But never
would we fathom it. until terrible re-
port was heard, after which we sail

Henshall recoied. Intense surprise mo-
mentArily bewildered him; then came. like
raw of sunshine the knowledge that here
was clue to the recovery Of his ideal. Not
a thought OF Lena Hartman entered his
mind to thwRrt his plans.

principle Of American law that the ma
