her She did not see him, but she says
that she could not be mistaken in his
quick, firm tread. She did not hear
the study door close, but a minute or
SO later there was dreadful cry in
the room below. 1t was wild,
hoarse scream, 50 strange and unnatu
raj that it might have come either
from q man or woman. AT the same
instant there was a heavy thud which
shook the old house, and then all was
silence. The maid stood petrified for
moment, and then, recovering her
courage she ran downstairs. The study
door was shut and she opened it. In
side, young Mr.. Willoughby Smith was
stretched upon the floor. At first she
could see no injury, but as she tried
to raise him she saw that blood was
pouring from the underside of his neck.
IT was pierced by very small but
very deep wound, which had divided
the carotid artery. The instrument
with which the injury had been in
flicted lay upon the carpet beside him.
1t was one of those small sealing-wax
knives to be found on old-fashioned
writing-tables, with an ivory handle
and stiff blade. 1t was part of the
fittings of the Professors own desk.

and the other half hobbling round the
house with a stick or being pushed
about the grounds by the gardener in
bath-chair. He was well-liked by
the few neighbours who called upon
him, and he has the reputation down
there of being a very learned man. His
household used to consist of an elderly
housekeeper, Mrs. Marker, and of a
maid, Susan Harlton. These have both
been with him since his arrival, and
they seem to be women of excellent
character. The Professor is writing
learned book, and he found it neces-
saly, about a year ago, to engage a
secretary. The first two that he tried
were not successes, but the third, Mr..
Willoughby Smith. a very young man
straight from the University, seems to
have been just what his employer
wanted. His work consisted in writ
ing all the morning to the Professor S
dictation, and he usually spent the
evening in hunting UP references and
passages which bore upon the next
days work. This Willoughby Smith
has nothing against him, either as a

no weak spot in him at all. And yet

find a household more self-contained
or freer from outside influences. Whole
weeks would pass, and not one Of
them so past the garden gate. The
Professor was buried in his work and
existed for nothing else. Young Smith
knew nobody in the neighborhood, and
lived very much as his employer did.
The two women had nothing TO take
them from the house. Mortimer, the
gardener, who wheels the bath-chair,
is an army pensioner-an old Crimeau
man Of excellent character. He does
not live in the house, but in q three
roomed cottage at the other end OF the
garden. Those are the only people

of Yoxley Old Place. at the same
time, the gate of the garden is a hun

Chatham road. 1t opens with 3 latchf

one from walking III.
Now | viii give you the evidence
of Susan Tarlton, who is the only per-
son who can say anything positive
about the matter. 1t was in the fore
noon, between eleven and twelve. She
was engaged at the moment in hang-
ing some curtains in the upstairs
front bedroom. Professor Coram was
still in bed, for when the weather is
bad he seldom rises before midday.
The housekeeper was busted with some
work in the back of the house. Will
loughby Smith had been in his bed

but the maid heard him at that mo-
ment pass along the passage and de-

''At first the maid thought that
young Smith was already dead, but on
pouring some water from the carafe
over his forehead he opened his eyes
for an instant. The Professor he
murmured-it was She The maid is
prepared to swear that those were the
exact words. He tried desperately to
say something else, and he held his
right hand up in the air. Then he fell
back dead.
"In the meantime the housekeeper
had also arrived upon the scene, but
she was just too late to catch the
young mans dying words. Leaving
Susan with the body, she hurried to

orders were given that no one should
walk upon the paths leading to the
house. 1t was a splendid chance of
putting your theories into practice,
Mr.. Sherlock Holmes. There was really
nothing wanting"
Except Mr.. Sherlock Holmes" said
my companion, with someWhat bitter
smile "WelI, let us hear about it.
What sort of job did you make OF
it?"
II must ask you first, Mr. Holmes,
to glance at this rough plan, which
will give you a general idea of the
position of the Professors study and
the various points of the case. 1t will
help you in following my investiga-
ton"
He unfolded the rough chart, which

behind Holmes, studied it over his
shoulder.

only deals with the points which seem
TO me to be essential. All the rest you
will see later for yourself. Now, first

tered the house, how did he or she

there is direct access to the study. Any
other way would have been exceeding
ly complicated. The escape must have
also been made along that line, for of
the two other exits from the room one

neither the gardener nor anyone else
had been there that morning and the
rain had only begun during the night. ;"

"Where does this path lead to?"

"A hundred yards or so"

directed my attention at once to the
garden path, which was saturated with
recent rain, and would certainly show
any footmarks.
MY examination showed me that 1
was dealing with a cautious and ex-
pert criminal. No footmarks were to
be found on the path. There could
be no question, however, that someone

done so in order to avoid leaving a

OLD MAN scHoTT's oVERCoAT
Toombs Didn't Like It's Presence in His
Aristocratic Hall:

Among the attractive pictures displayed
by a prominent Washington photogra pher
Is galaxy presenting the faces of SEN
ators who represented the different states
of the union in ante-bellum days In the
collection are portraitures of many men
of many minds, who were great leaders
in the partisan debates OF that period. An
old resident Of Washington who was in
the employ Of the United States Senate in
those days and who knew every face in
the group and was on terms of friendly ac-
riaintance with some of them was point
ing them out to Star reporter Yesterday
and specifying the rather frownine and
leonine countenance of Robert L. Toombs
of Georgia, renowned as a violent debater
and partisan, was reminded of an incident
which he related.
In the employ of the Senate in the
'ffties.' y he said. there was an old fellow
named Schott, Familiarity and somewhat af-
fectionately known by his friends as Old
Bill Schott. The old fellow was an old
man-of-warsman. and served in the navy
when hogging and grog rations We're part
of the system After he quit going to sea
he secured a place as a messenger in the
Office or the Senate sergeant-at-arms then
Col. Dunnnig r. McNair and was assigned
to duty driver of one of the Senate
wagons. He was assisted in this laborious
work by Martin La Truitte, who was about
in town.
One day the old man was assigned to the
duty of carting a wagon load of public
documents to Senator Toombs, who then
lived on l street near 18th. in the fashion
able west end of the town. The books were
packed in big bundles and were to be de-
posted in Toombs library. When they
got to the house Old Man Schott began
toting the bundles into the mansion La
Truitte sat in the wagon to prevent it be-
ing stolen. The work of carrying the bum
dies made the old man rather warm so
he took off his coat and irreverently hung
