transported to New York again. He awoke with
an exclamation about the villainy of dramatic
agent named Steindal.
Karl explained that Constantine and Steindai
in New-York decided to make Maggie Hutcnln-
son an offer to go on concert tour, Constantine

Karl received a telegram from his mother ask
ing him to meet the Hutchinsons upon their
arrival in London. After astonishing the hotet
clerk with feieeuom1c manifestations, Kari met

CHAPTER XIV.
Bradshaw Takes
Bradimg i'm Hand

WILLIAM L. BRADSHAW had made
w friend of Brading. He had, in
deed, made friend of every person with
whom ne came in contact, being gifted
with a calmly persuasive manner which
inspired confidence in all men, not to
mention women. A reckless prodlgallty
in the matter of half-crowns, too, caused
the villagers to imagine that the mile
MUM was imminent, if not already in their
midst. As far as Brading was concerned,
he took special pains to establish good
relations, because he saw that the de-
tective was endowed with infinite capa-
bilities, for all that he was tainted with
the red-tape traditions of Scotland Yard,
The American was deeply interested In
the mystery of Lord Arncliffe's death.
Naturally enough, the sentimental aspect
appealed little to him, since he had never
set eyes on his relative. But it was clear
that influences had been at work which
had caused great injury to his own per-
sonal prospects. Lord Arncliffe would
certainly have taken the claims of SO
near relative into consideration in dis
posing of his enormous wealth had not
the fact of the existence of nephew
been kept from him.
1t was impossible to avoid the doubt
that Edith might have been responsible,
at least for the suppression of Bradshaw's,
letters. Yet from the first the hard
headed American had resolutely refused
to regard her as guilty in the smallest
degree There was mystery, and that
mystery he intended to solve. In all
his friendly visits to the Hall he had kept
New-York tribune., 1905-11-05

any case the whole mystery will probably
be cleared up before long
when it is, come to me and say again
what you have said to-day-h you have
not changed your mind.
And them" he whispered eagerly.
Il will tell you what think about it,
said Edith, with tantalizing smile
They were almost at the Hail now, and
by sheer force of the joy that welled up
in her heart, she gave rein to her innate
coquetry.
"Good-byl" she cried, holding out her
hand.
Lester looked dangerous, but she trown-
ed and stamped her little foot, and he,
losing courage, dared only to press his
lips to her glove. He turned away de-
iectedly, and Edith looked after him
with something of surprise. Had she
driven him away from her, this knight
errant who had found her in the wilder
ness? Then she ran back toward him,
her cheeks aglow.
Shut your eyes," she commanded
imperiously, and don't dare to novel"
Lester obeyed, in sheer astonishment
He felt delicious touch, light as thistle
down, on his lips, and awoke to find him
self alone, alone in smiling world which
had suddenly changed into Paradise.

THE ARNCIIFFE PUZZLE
C0uhnn
Continued from page 8

his eyes open for the slightest clue tend
ing to throw light upon the subject. The
first thing essential was to win the trust
of the detective, and now he had so Tar
succeeded that Brading was installed IN
his private sitting-room at the Fisher
mans Rest" ready to discuss develop
ments and to impart all his latest theories.
The quaint old room, with its carved
wainscoting and it's time-ensabled beams,
exercised a restfu1 influence over the ner-
vous American. After he had pushed a
tray laden with whisky and cigars
cigars that were real Havanas and not
doped imitations-across the table to the
detective he sat for long time silently
meditative, with something of that red
Indian mperturbability which seems to
be the natural inheritance of men born
in the great new land.
Brading sat quiet too He was not
a waster of words, nor was it part of his
policy to hurry any mans thoughts. At
length Bradshaw took his cigar from be-
tween his lips.
Partner he said, you are weeping
over the wrong grave.
preston of blank inquiry.
Great Scottl" exclaimed Bradshaw
testify, cant you understand plain
language? You are barking up the
wrong tree.
But what the dickens do you mean?"
asked Brading, still only half compre
hending.
We'll now, you are wasting your time
trying to fasten things on to that poor
little girl Edith Holt, when you know she
is the last person in the world to have
committed so cold-blooded a crime.
There is the business of that check for
three hundred pounds she says the old
man gave her
withdraw that, interrupted Brad
ing. Il have every reason now to be-
1eve that Lord Arncliffe did give her the
money. But there is something mex
plicabe in connection with those letters
of yours. 1t is all very we'll for the young
lady to say she never had the least idea
of inheriting Lord Arncliffe's money; but
let us suppose, for the sake of our inquiry,
that she did know the terms of his
will. She, or some one acting in her be-
half, might very well decide to put him
away before your arrival on the scene
caused him to change his mind Prob
ably he would have treated her hand
somely in any case; yet | do not think
there can be much doubt you would have
been the heir instead of Miss Holt"
Neither do l." agreed Bradshaw;
"but that does not prove Miss Holt to be
fraud. There is something IN that
girls face"
Il know" said Brading, with an in
sufferable wink. "She is a perfect little
angel to look at, and her soul is mirrored
in her eyes. Bless you'll 1 know ladies
who are doing their ten years penal at
this moment who could give Miss Holt
points"
Sometimes you talk like a perfect
idiot, Brading" rejoined Bradshaw cheer

tainted money by Mrs. William

money, as she put it, by gambling.
Her husband was good man and
won heavily at the race track. she
said: but it was against her religious
training to use funds so obtained and,
alt'/ ugh Connell left large sums ly-
ing about on tables and in drawers
for her. she refused to touch it and
had returned to her parents, taking
along the children.
Justice Kelly advised the woman to
