TT OF JEWELS.

$4,000
The ten jewels are all perfect specimens Of
their kind. The first fou- are cut exactly alike.
The pear shaped pearls are similar in size and
shape, rs are also the egg pearls. The canary
diamond Is oblong and the topaz unexccllod.
The lot are contained in a red Russia leather
case by 6 inches in size, lined with black sat
in. Each jewel fits in q special Gel'rossion and
Is held in place by gold wire clasp.
The case has the name 'AilICn1-I4" in gold
letters across the band which straps around it.
This was all, no name being signed.
Mr.. Barnes regretted this last fact, but
felt that he held a most important pa
per in his hand, since it seemed to be
colroboTative Of the womau's statement
that she had lost lot Of unset jewels.
1t was Of great value to have SO minute
a description of the stolen gems. Fold
ing the paper carefully, he placed it III
his wallet, and then returned to the vi
cinity Of the corpse.
Looking closely at the cut in the
neck, the detective determined that the
assassin had used an ordinary pocket
knife, for the wound was neither deep
nor long. 1t severed the jugular vein,
which seemed to have been the aim of
the murderer. Ii was from this circum-
stance that the detective decided that
the woman he'd been attacked as she
slept This aroused the question, did
the murderer have the means Of enter
ing the house without attracting atten-
tion?' Either he must have had night
key, or else some one must have admit
ted him. Mr.. Barnes started as the
thought reourred TO him that Wilson
had seen Mr.. Mitchell enter the house
some time before the scream was heard
and depart some time after Was this
the woman who had accompanied him
to the theater? If SO, how could she
have retired and fallen asleep so quick
ly: Evidently further light must be
thrown upon this aspect Of the case.
While meditating the detectives eye
roamed about the room, and finally rest
ed upon shining object which lay on
the floor near the trunk. A ray Of light
from the front window just reached it
and made it glitter. Mr.. Barnes looked
at it for some moments mechanically,
STOPPING presently to pick it up, with
little thought of what he did. He had
scarcely examined it, however, before
gleam Of triumph glistened in his eye.
He held in his hand button, which
was cut cameo, upon which was carved
the profile head Of woman, beneath
which appeared the name Juliet.

The box on exhibition is provided with a

bag is pushed into its position to receive
the mail. BY inserting the frame of the
bag into the grooves of the box the box
is opened, the bottom of the box is releas-

bag. Upon removing the bag from the box
the former is closed and the bottom of
the latter automatically resumes its for

box and bag are opened and the mail re-
leased from the box into the bag without

bags are keptiin the general postoffiGe or
