CHAPTER XIV.

The next morning at nine o'clock Miss
Delmar called at Whidby's.
81 have had to run for it, she said,
laughingly, as the young man came
into the drawing room. Il had to give
papa the slip. He heard that 1 was out
all day yesterday and demanded an ex-
PLANTATION. Of course, refused to tell
him anything, and he ordered me not to
show myself out of doors to-day. But
when 1 got the telegram from Mr..
Hendricks to meet him here at nine
slipped out at the back gate and have
run nearly all the way"
WILDLY drew her to him and kissed
her.
You were bound to pull me out of
this hole" he said. ga week ago l was
nearly crazy with forebodings, but now
really enjoy it."
II am sure l do, almost" she laughed.
II wonder if Mr.. Hendricks can have
discovered anything more? Here he
comes now. I heard the gate click. Let
me admit him."
She went to the door, and in Il mo-
ment entered with the detective.
''He knows something new" she said,
laughingly, to her lover. 81 can see it
in his eyes"
"You certainly don't seem so per-
picked as you did when I left you yester-
day." said WILDLY, as he cordially shook
hands.
"a little nearer, that's ALL" was the
reply of the detective, as he sat down
and took out the envelope they had
found at the shop of the rag dealer
"You know" he went on to WILDLY

typewriter. she wrote the threatening
letter to her father and enjoyed the eX-
element it caused. Later, fearing that
some one would see through her little
deception, she determined to make the
circumstances more convincing. The
detective stories she had read gave her
the idea of pretending to be shot at.
AS 1 have shown you, she dampened
the clay with the watering can, made
the footmarks by wearing her fathers
slippers, shot a hole through her sleeve,
hid the revolver in the grass and has
had a lot of fun out of our careful in
vestigations. If she had dreamt, how
ever, that she herself would be suspect
ed of that murder she would have shown
the white feather long ago."
What are you going to do now?''
asked Welsh, completely crestfallen.
'I am on quite another line, and am
at standstin. 1 hardly know what 1
shall do"
Can aid you in any way?"
81 think not, now. Ishall come round
as soon as I find out anything tam
gible."

Late one evening Isoletta and Cater
ina rushed in upon us N terrified excite
ment as we sat reading by the light of
an oil lamp in the yellow room;" their
faces were, of the whiteness of paper.
and their eyes had wild expression of
fear
!, ..Signora, what is the matter? Every
bell in the house, is ringing. Maria Sane
tissima, what will become of u.s."
i must explain that the bells were of
the old-fashioned variety, which hang
on wires and are pulled by bell rope.
per carita, signora, come and see
what has happened"
They were so much in earnest that, to
calm their fears, we went into the hall.
There were the ten bells hung in a row
and ringing as though the furies were
at the other end of the rope! Ringing
of their own accord, apparently, or a.
least pulled by no visible hand.
Of sudden we became aware that
the floors were trembling, the walls
were shaking. The whole building
moved on it's foundations; it swayed
from side to side, at first slightly, then
further and further, with a slow, rhyth-
mic motion, full of grace and majesty;
but we could realize no sensation be
yond sickening terror.
It was an earthquake. The motion
lasted few seconds, then ceased grad
ually. Had it continued three seconds
longer the tall Obelisks. the beautiful
campanili, would have fallen.-N. Y.

This at once excited suspicion that
something was wrong-that some de-
signing person. for reasons of his own,
had tricked me into betraying my
whereabouts. The telegram had not
been returned. That showed that some
one at 234 Union street, Brooklyn. had
received it and signed for it in due
form. or | should have been advised of
his failure to do so by the telegraph
Office here. The letter addressed in the
same way had been returned. That
proved that Frederick Champney either
was not there or wanted me to think he
was not, and my curiosity was reused.
But. as your case was just then becom-
ing more interesting, 1 put the letter
away for safe keeping, along with the
note to my mother, to take up again
when | was more at leisure, and dis
missed them from my mind. However,
as l said just now, there was something
strangely familiar about the envelope
we found at the rag shop yesterday, and
I could not for the life of me tell what it
could be. 1t was not until had left
you and reached my hotel last night

large capital d in the center of the New

1 banished thoughts of all kinds, and

magnifying-glass examined the letter
which had been returned to me from
New York marked: Not Delivered.
What do you suppose discovered? My
letter had been steamed and carefully
opened.

Few Words About Toads.

toad's eyes are the only things in
nature which could not be represented
without using gold.
As to toads being poisonous, as the
French peasants say, or making warts,
as some old people tell us, that is pure
nonsense. Their tongues are as curious
as their eyes are beautiful. The root o.
the tongue is just behind the under lip
and folds backward. When Mr.. Toad
sees fly he darts his long and active
tongue out so quickly that it is hard tn
see him do it, and jerks the fly alive
down his wide outlet.
How many of my Merry Timers can

of the toad, and quote the passage in
which he does so?-Detroit Free Press.
