less search she rushed to the windows,
They were both on the same side Of the
room, and looked out on aspaved yard,
which nothing alive could have reached
in safety without wings. d
Wretch! What have you done with
him?" Mrs. Martin demanded, turning
again faercely toward the waiting maid
II cannot imagine what madam
MEANS" she replied. "No doubt the
shock, the horror and the grief has at.
fected madam's head. It would be not
a-what you call it-surprise."
Mrs. Martin bestowed q glance OF
contempt on her; then, noticing stains
Of blood on the carpet, and on the mar
BILE Of the washstand and bowl, cried
out:
Look, sir-look, Mr.. Hantlin! She
had concealed the murderer here; but
we are toe late! See that blood-stained
water? Oh, merciful heaven-it ts there
that he has washed my poor brothers
blood from his guilty hands!"
And, overcome by her w uncon-
trolled excitement, Mrs. Martin gave
way to a burst of hysterical tears.
The detective allowed the two women
full sway. He merely watched. At the
close of Mrs. Martins wild outburst, ne
spoke for the first time.
II came here to ask you a question,
Miss Leonce. How did you spend the
time between leaving me and Mrs.
Grayson, when you were sent away
this morning, and the time when the
first alarm of the murder was given?'
1T can hardly quite remember, mon.
sieur-so many things have happened.
But It was with the rest Of the SER
wants. 1 think. I was expected to DO

remember"
The answer was assured and SELF
possessed, and the detective saw at
once that the girl had regained all her
natural composure and self-control.
He merely glanced at the REDEEMED
water in the basin and the blood-stains
about, the explanation Of which the
girl could SO readily afford If asked. He
did not even refer to them. Backing
toward the door, he said, respectfully:
II would not have intruded to ask
that question If you had not left the
room so suddenly
st thought monsieur had dismissed
me. Besides. I was suffering from a
terrible headache, and feared an attack
Of nose-bleeding, to which I am very
subject. AS monsieur may see, my
fears had good foundation"
For 1t was evident enough that the
attack still continued.

Mrs. Martin accompanied Hantlin
from the room, and the door was Inn
mediately closed and locked behind
them.
A glance full. Of intelligence passed
between them, but neither spoke. The
glance, however. said. palmer than
words:
"The Frenchwoman knows the MUIR
derer. She first concealed him, then
aided him to escape. Is he her lover or
the lover Of her mistress?"

Of their uncle's eccentricities and were
almost unconscious Of the rooted mono

only noticed that Uncle Robert looked
at once brighter and quieter than eve

expressed itself in n brief and amaz-

"Robert is no longer insane; he has
quite recovered his reason!"

seating himself on the sofa beside her
