The telltale ribbon

this tragedy, should have been kept
so long in reserve and brought out just
at this time, struck many Of Mr.. JEFF
| frey's closest friends as unnecessarily
dramatic; but when the coroner, lift
| ing out the ribbon, remarked tentative
~, "You know this ribbon?" we were
more struck by the involuntary cry of
surprise which rose from some one in
the crowd about the door than by the
look with which Mr.. Jeffrey eyed it
and made the necessary reply. That
cry had something more than nervous
excitement in it. Identifying the
person who had uttered it as a certain
busy little woman we'll known in town,
I sent an officer to watch her; then re-
called my attention to the point the
coroner was attempting to make. He
had forced Mr.. Jeffrey to recognize the
ribbon as the one which had fastened
the pistol to his wife's arm. Now he
asked VIII sfher, in his opinion, wom-
an could tie such bow to her own
wrist, and when in common justice
Mr.. Jeffrey was obliged to say no,
waited third time before he put the
general suspicion again into words:
"Can you not, by some means or
some witness, prove to us that it was
on Tuesday night and not on Wednes-
day you spent the hours you speak Of
on this scene of your marriage and
your wife's death"
The hopelessness which more than
once had marked Mr.. Jeffrey's features
since the beginning of this inquiry re-
appeared with renewed force as this
suggestive question fell again upon his
ears, and he was about to repeat his
plea Of forgetfulness when the coro-
ner's attention was diverted by re-
quest made in his ear by one Of the
detectives. In another moment Mr..
Jeffrey had been waved aside and a
new witness sworn in.
You can imagine every ones surprise,
mine most of all, when this witness
proved to be Uncle David.

CHAPTER XIV.

" DO not know why the coroner had
solong delayed to call this witness.
What he said was in the way Of
confirming the last witness test
mony as to his having been at the
Moore house on Tuesday evening. Mr..
Moore, who was very particular as to
dates and days, admitted that the light
which he had seen in certain window
of his ancestral home on the evening
when he summoned the police was but
the repetition of one he had detected
there the evening before. 1t was this
repetition which alarmed him and
caused him to break through all his
usual habits and leave his home at
night to notify the police.
The coroner asked him if he had seen
Mr.. Jeffrey go in on the night in ques-
ton; if he had ever seen any one go in
there since the wedding, or even if he
had seen any one lettering about the
steps or sneaking into the rear yard.
But the answer was always no; these
same noes growing more and more en-
phatic, and the gentleman more and
more impenetrable and dignifed as the
examination went on. In fact, he was
as unassailable a witness as I have
ever heard testify before any jury.
Beyond the fact already mentioned of
his having observed light in the oppo-
site house on the two evenings in ques-
ton he admitted nothing. His life in
the little cottage was so engrossing, he
had his organ, his dog, why should he
look out Of the window? Had it not
been for his usual habit of letting his
dog run the pavements for quarter of
an hour before finally locking up for
the night he would not have seen as
much as he did.
'Have you any stated hour for do
ing this?" the coroner now asked.
"Yes; half past g."
"And was this the hour when you
saw that light?"
YES; both times"
AS he had appeared at the station
house at a few minutes before 10, he

A call for Tallma an

cesslG tell If only I could remember his
name" Suddenly, with a loud cry
which escaped him involuntarily, he
gave a gurgling laugh, and we heard
| the name "Tallmanw leap from his
lips.
The witness had at last remembered
whom he had met at the cemetery
gate at the hour or near the hour his
wife lay dying in the lower part Of
the city.
The effect was electrical. One Of the
spectators-some country boor, no
doubt-so far forgot himself as to cry
out loud enough for all to hear:
"Tallman! Let us have Tallmanv
OF course he met with an instant re-
buke, but 1 did not wait to hear it or
to see order restored, for a glance from
the coroner had already sent me to the
door in search Of this new witness.
Ny destination was the Cosmos club,
for Phil Tallman and his habits and
haunts were as well known in Wash
ington as the figure Of Liberty on the
summit Of he capitol dome. When I
saw him did not wonder. Never have
seen Nose amiable looking man or
one with a more absentminded express
sion. To my query as to whether he
had ever met Mr.. Jeffrey at or near
the entrance of Rock Greek cemetery
he replied with an amazed look and
the quick response:
"Of course 1 did. 1t was the very
night that his wife But what's up?
You look excited for a detective"
"Come to the morgue and see. This
testimony of yours will prove invalua-
BILE to Mr.. jeffrey"
The result was an absolute proof
that Mr.. Jeffrey had been near Sol
diers' home as late as 7, which was
barely fifteen minutes previous to the
hour Mrs. Jeffrey's watch was stopped
by her fall in the old house on Waiver
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1904-06-25

sion created a great furore in
town. What might be ex-
pected next? Something equally bold
and reprehensible, Of course, but
what? 1t was a question which at the
next sitting completely filled the in
quest room.
To my great surprise Mr.. Jeffrey was
recalled to the stand.
Miss futile sat in a less conspicuous
position than on the previous day, and
Mr. Moore, her uncle, was not there at
ALL
The testimony called for revived an
old point which seemingly had not
been settled to the coroner's satisfac-
ton.
Had Mr. Jeffrey placed the small
stand holding the candelabrum on the
spot where it had been found? No.
Had he carried into the house at the
time of his acknowledged visit the can
dies which had been afterward discov-
cred there? No. He had had time
to think since his hesitating and I'M
satie factory replies Of the day before,
and he was now in a position to say
that, while he distinctly remembered
buying candles on his way to the Moore
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1904-06-25

was probably correct in this statement.
He wound up with such a distinct
repetition of his former emphatic as
sertion as to the presence of light in
the old house on Tuesday as well as
Wednesday evening that Mr. Jeffreys
testimony in this regard received a de-
cided confirmation. 1 looked to see
some open recognition of this, when
suddenly and with a persistence I'M
derstood only by the police the coro-
ner recalled Mr.. Jeffrey and asked him
what proof he had to offer that his
visit Of Tuesday had not been repeated
the next night and that he was not in
the building when that fatal trigger
was pulled.
At this leading question a lawyer
sitting near me edged himself forward
as If he hoped for some sign from Mr..
Jeffrey which would warrant him in
interfering. But Mr.. Jeffrey gave no
such sign. I doubt if he even noticed
this mans proximity, though he knew
him well and had often employed him
as his legal adviser in times gone by.
He was evidently exerting himself to
recall the name which so persistently
eluded his memory, putting his hand to
his head and showing the utmost con-
fusion.
II cannot give you one," he finally
stammered. "There is a man who

Immediately after turning from the

On the contrary, she stood for some
minutes near them, gazing in what
seemed like a great distress of mind
straight upon the floor, after which
she moved in an agitated way and
with more than one anxious look be-
hind her into the adjoining room, where
she paused before large bureau. AS
this bureau was devoted entirely to

"What candle and what Candida
brum?"
"The same 1 used upstairs, of
course"
"And you cannot remember where
you left this candle and candelabrum
when you finally quilted the houseY'
"No. I wasn't thinking about can
dies"
"What were you thinking aboutY'
"The rupture with my wife and the
bad name Of the house was in"

night?"
Eyes, SIR"
"How can you prove this to us?"
II cannot"
"But you swear
II swear that it was Tuesday night,
the night Immediately preceding the
one when-when my wife's death rob-
bed me of all earthly happiness"
1t was feelingly uttered, and several
faces lightened; but the coroner re-
peating, "Is there no way you can
prove this to our satisfaction? the
shadow settled again, and on no head
more perceptibly than on that Of the
unfortunate witness.
It was now late in the day and the at
mosphere Of the room had become
sitting, but no one seemed to be con-
scious of any discomfort, and a general
gasp of excitement passed through the
room when the coroner, taking out a
box from under a pile of papers, dis
closed to the general gaze the famous
white ribbon with it's dainty bow, ly-
ing on top Of the fatal pistol.

interesting one of all connected with

the two places could not be comprised
in that time, Mr.. Jeffrey's alibi could
be regarded as established.
When we were all rising, glad Of an
adjournment which restored free
movement and an open interchange Of
speech, sudden check in the general
rush called our attention back to Mr..
Jeffrey. He was standing facing Miss
Tuttle who had tainted away, sitting
upright in her chair.
