CHAPTER /.
THE Joy OF DEATH.

By the accident OF my presence in the
New Holland Hotel at the moment when
Holman Brand, the broker, met his
strange fate, and by my acquaintance
with the detective in the case, l OBJ
tanned knowledge OF II which should
enable me TO add something OF interest
to the accounts already published. Mr..
Brand, II will be remembered, was of the
firm OF Brand 4 Avery, with offices on
Pine street, near Broadway. When the
New Holland was opened, little more
than a year ago, the firm established
barnch office there, with an entrance
from the avenue and another from the
main hall of the hotel.
1t was passing through the hall when
the outcry consequent upon the sudden
death of Mr.. Brand rose discordant above
the blending voices of the great house
and the busy street. There were some
hundred of people within sound of that
cry, and ali OF them, venture to say,
stood still, as did, arrested in their vari-
Gus pursuits by the transcending interest
of death. For there was that in the
alarm which meant death, and no one
could mistake IL.
Immediately, a boy with scared face
rushed out OF the brokers' Office into the
hall. Catching sight OF an elderly gentle

"This Is most extraordinary, said the
coroner. "Can it be that this unhappy
girl had learned about the will, and had
sent poison TO the man who would have
done so much for her? What dc you find
there, Doctor?'
This last question was addressed TO DIR.
Bell, who during the reading of the let
ter had not been idle. Assisted by Preble,
he had removed the stamp from the
mouth OF the murdered man, and had
placed IL upon a sheet OF paper. Then
he had made a second and much more
careful examination OF the body.
"There Is but one point so far" he re-
piled to the coroner's question. "The
stamp exhales a faint perfume-a most
unusual odor. extremely agreeable. IL
can be noticed also about the lips OF the
dead man" -

NIT no statement rejecting on her char
acter TO pass unnoticed'
The difficulty began this fall in the United
States Circuit Court here. when Mrs Liver
more was witness In the suit against Con-
gresham Elijah Morse, brought by Mrs.
Cougar. Mrs. Livermore testified that she
knew Mrs. Cougar WELL and that she occa-
sionally used harsh and abusive Ian
guage." Mrs. Livermore also said she had
never been member or the Prohibition
party Of this State.
A letter appeared in the last issue of the
in which she sharply took Mrs. Livermore
TO task and sought to show that she did
not speak the truth at the trial. Mrs.
Cougar alleges that Mrs. Livermore sup
ported the Prohibition nominees, and quoted
from Hon. John p. St. John for the purpose
of showing that she left the Republican
party and Joined the Prohibnionists. Mrs.
Cougar also denied other statements which
Mrs. Livermore made at the trial.
Mrs. Lvermore, when seen tonight, was
very indignant at the letter in the Voice,
and called II a tissue of misrepresentation.
