CHAPTER VII.

A dying parishioner kept Mr.. Follett.
at the last moment. from going with
fame to London. Under different cir
cumstances it is not impossible that he
might have reconeiled his conscience
to making over the charge into Mr..
Bradley's hands But, in truth, he
was not sorry for some tangible and
grave excuse that should keep him
from being poor James sole support in
the first dark hour Of her coming trial.
He liked her more than he liked any
other living being save himself; but it
made Mr.. Follett sick for hours If he
CHANGED to come across any wounded,
writhing creature upon his path when
he walked abroad. To be the witness
OF mortal agony he could not aid was
an actual and intense pain to himself.
and SO, as Miss Lynch was not only
unprepared for the journey. but sick,
and spent with nervousness and a
sleepless night, nothing remained for
Jane but to set out upon her mission
alone.
She had left Houghton by the earliest
London train; and by little before
noon she found herself already stand
ing, with somewhat quickened pulse,
at the familiar door Of Mr.. Clithero's IS
house, in Russell Square.
She was shown into the old.fashioned
dining room by the old-fashioned
servant-man she remembered SO well,
and told. IN exactly the same words
and the same tone that she had heard
him use to Miss Lynch ever SINCE she
was little child, that Mr. Clithero
had expected her. and that Mr.. Clithero
would be glad II she would take seui

Vague Verdict in Murder Case.

Vague Verdict in Murder Case.
The Coroner's jury in the case OF
Mrs Morris Natal, who was found
dead with hands and feet tied in her
apartments on December 13, rendered
a verdict that death was 'due to fright
caused by robbery Of her diamonds and
money by some person or persons un-
known" Much to the surprise of the
community the jury failed to officially
connect Frank PerdOni with the crime,
although the man. handcuffed to How.
ard Morris, an alleged accessory, was
brought down to Asbury Park from
Freehold by the detectives and subject
ed to severe examination at the
hands of Prosecutor Nevins. Morris
partial confession was read to Perd0ni.
The prisoners looked wan and sad.
Morris was pale and thin, while Per-
| doni's eyes were moistened as he gazed
upon familiar scenes. A secret session
Of the inquest was ordered at the in
stance of the Prosecutor and the de-
fendants' lawyers. At the close of the
inquest Perdoni and Morris, handcuffed
to Detective Ntzhugh, were taken back
to Freehold Jail. That the suspects
will be held for the Grand Jury is cer-

evidence in, possession of the Prosecu-
tors Office was not disclosed at the in
quest, and that the detectives have an
array Of facts which. it is believed, will
insure an Indictment Morris has con-
fessed that Perdoni concocted a plot to
rob Mrs. Natal, although he denies
any knowledge Of the actual commits
sion Of the crime. In Asbury Park the
verdict of the Coroner's jury was re-
garded as vague and unsatisfactory.
1t was hoped that the jury would fix
the crime, and that the Prosecutors
case was sufficiently marshaled to JUS
tify an exposure of his hand. The de-
fendant's lawyers in all probability will
apply for the discharge of the prison
ers, unless indictments are found with
in few days. Rumors that Morris
and Perdoni had agreed to disclose the
identity of third accomplice and to
reveal the hiding place Of the stolen
diamonds were not verified and are
probably untrue.

show that more than 100000 women

Charles Long Hanged.

Charles Long, a negro, who shot Mat
thew Cunningham last July, was
hanged at Trenton. Sheriff William L.
Wilbur, formerly member Of the AS
sembly and graduate of Princeton
University, had charge of the affair
and carried out some ideas that were
strictly his own. From the moment
Long entered the Court House building
not word was spoken except the all
most inaudible prayers Of two accom-
panying priests, and no one but the
Sheriff and one other knew who sprung
the fatal trap. Longs last word was
spoken before he left his cell. He was
accompanied by Father Whalen and
Father Griffin, the former mounting the
scaffold and standing beside him until
the end. COnstables Mitchell and Nu-
lit mounted the scaffold, and without
word being spoken adjusted the
moose. The priest and constables
stepped hastily aside and an electric
button was pressed and the trap was
sprung. The pressing Of the button
had conveyed a signal to man con-
cealed in a room fifty feet away whose
identity was unknown. Sheriff Wilbur
had charge of the arrangements, but
took no part In the actual hanging.
He had drilled his deputies in every
detail. The mans neck was broken
and physicians were unable to detect
the movement Of muscle after the
trap was sprung. They agreed that un-
consciousness was immediate.
