could be no question, was the same
that had contained the ill-omened
treasure of the Sholtos. There was no
key, but it was of considerable weight,
so we transferred it carefully to our
own little cabin. As we steamed
slowly upstream again, we flashed our
seareh-light in every direction, but
there was no sign of the islander.
Somewhere in the dark ooze at the
bottom of the Thames lie the bones of
that strange visitor to our shores.

the wooden hatchway. ''We were

HER SECRET KNOWN.
The Marqu1se Tainted When She Met the
Chief of Police.

The Marquise tainted When She Met tn,
Chief Of Police.
M. Hyrvoix, chief of police at Paris
under the empire, one night was awak
ened and informed that one of the most
prominent ladies of the imperial court
had just been arrested.
With the assistance of her maid she
had attempted to place in a cab the
dead body of a young man arrayed in
full evening dress.
At the police station she explained tc
Hyrvoix that her husband had gone on
shooting expedition and would return
on the following morning and that she
had taken advantage of his absence to
receive young admirer, who had died
at two o'clock in the morning of aneur-
ism of the heart.
Appalled, by the possibility of the
body being discovered by her husband
she was in the act of getting rid of it
when discovered and arrested.
M. Hyrvoix, aware of the emperor's
desire to avoid public scandals at all
cost, Immediately ordered her release.
Some years later, after the war, M.
Hyrvoix happened to be present at an
afternoon reception on the Faubourg
St. Honore at Paris. The death OF the
emperor and the fate of the exiles
at Chiselhurst formed the principal
topid of conversation.
AS usual, small mercy was shown the
fallen dynasty. and among the most
bitter in their denunciation of the cor
ruption and immortality of the empire
was lady in whom M. Hyrvoix recog-
nized the heroine of the adventure de-
scribed above.
He made his way up to her and, bow
ing low, exclaimed: MAY I be per-
mitted to pay my homage to Nine. la
Marquise? II fear that you have almost
forgotten me-"
She looked up at him and, on recog-
nizing who was speaking, tainted. Nor
was she ever afterwards known to
open her lips on the score of Bona
partist immorality.-San Francisco Ar

! how the consequential Jones was al
ready beginning to give himself airs on
the strength of the capture. From the
slight smile which played over Sher-
lock Holmes face, could see that the
speech had not been lost upon him.

"It is a pity there is no key. that we

have to break it open. Where is the

Small, shortly.
"Hum! There was no use you Civ

had work enough already through you.
However, doctor, l need not warn you
to be careful. Bring the box back

You will find us there on our way to

quarter of an hours drive brought us
to Mrs. Cecil Forrester's. The servant
seemed surprised at so late visitor.
Mrs. Cecil Forester was out for the
evening, she explained, and likely to
be very late. Miss Morstan, however,
was in the drawing-room; so to the
drawing groom went, DOX IN nanO,
leaving the obliging inspector in the
cab.
She was seated by the open window,
dressed in some sort of white diaphan-

scarlet at the neck and waist. The soft
light of a shaded lamp fell upon her as
she leaned back in the basket chair,
playing over her sweet, grave face, and

CHAPTER X.-CoNr1NuEp.

have coursed many creatures in
many countries during my check
cred career, but never did sport
give me such wild thrill as this
mad, flying man hunt down the
Thames. Steadily we drew in upon
them, yard by yard. In the silence
of the night we could hear the
painting and clanling of their ma
chinery. The man in the stern still
crouched upon the deck, and his arms
were moving as though he were busy,
while every now and then he would
look up and measure with a glance the
distance which still separated us.
Nearer we came and nearer. Jones
yelled to them to stop. We were not
more than four boats lengths behind
them, both boats flying at a tremen-
dous pace. 1t was a clear reach of
the river, with Barking level upon
one side and the melancholy Plum
stead marshes upon the other. At
our hail the man in the stern sprang
up from the deck and shook his two
clinched fists at us, cursing the while
in high, cracked voice. He
was u ROOu-SlZcus pOWcI1u1 Iudu,
and as he stood posing himself
with legs astride could see that from
the thigh downwards there was but a
wooden stump upon the right side. At
the sound of his strident, angry cries
there was movement in the huddled
bundle upon the deck. Strengthened
itself into little black mantle
smallest have ever seen-with great,
misshapen head and shock Of tangled,
disheveled hair. Holmes had already
drawn his revolver, and whipped out
mine at the sight of this savage, dis
torted creature. He was wrapped in
some sort of dark ulster or blanket,
which left only his face exposed; but
that face was enough to give a man a
sleepless night. Never have l seen
features SO deeply marked with all bes-
TALLY and cruelty. His small eyes
glowed and burned with somber light,
and his thick lips were writhed back
from his teeth, which grinned and chat
tered at us with half animal fury.
"Fire if he raises his hand" said
Holmes, quietly. We were within a
boats length by this time, and almost
within touch of o1r quarry. can see

the rich coils of her 1uxuriant hair, on
white arm and hand dropped over the
side of the chair, and her whole post
and figure spoke of an absorbing
melancholy. At the sound of my foot

and a bright flush of surprise and o.
pleasure colored her pale cheeks.

thought that Mrs Forester had come
back very early, but never dreamed
that it might be you. What news have
you brought me?"
II have brought something better

box upon the table and speaking jov-
tally and boisterously, though my
heart was heavy within me. 81 have

Half of it is yours and half is Thaddeus

hundred thousand each. Think OF

pounds. There will be few richer

glorious?"
think that must have been rather
overacting my delight, and that she
detected hollow ring in my congratu-
lations, for I saw her eyebrows rise a
little, and she glanced at me curiously.

I narrated briefly what had occurred

method of search, the discovery of the
Aurora, the appearance of Athelney
Jones, our expedition in the evening,
and the wild chase down the Thames.
She listened with parted lips and shin
