 SHADY ISABEL ANDI ! MISS NOBODY {
eVGoeV0e
 Copyright, by Joseph B. Bowles.)
By MRS. MESH.

It was towards the end of last win ter that Lady Isabel confided in me about her other brothers love affair.
 My dear girl" she said pathetically you ought to be really and truly thankful Providence has not blessed you with brothers"
 Ought l?' l answered doubtfully Do you know, have an idea should simply love to have brothers?"
 Its only an idea" she responded lightly. You see. you write fiction and so you are full of imagination, and you imagine 1t would be nice to have brothers; but out of the realms of fancy, in real. hard, everyday life they are great nuisance and fear. full responsibility"
 "All brothers" I asked.
 She nodded. "All mine. at any rate Look at Bob," she continued, dear old boy. hos awfully nice and all that but very dull and heavy. you know with the sort of heavy dullness that so often characterizes the future head of the family. and yet he is always falling in and out of love"
 You have only one other." I said "and he is not even dull"
 "No," she admitted. Cyril is cer. tainly anything but dull-in fact, is the other extreme; he is too lively, and that is just what is worrying me now.-
 Tn love, tool" I asked. with sym. pathy. ..
 She nodded. You know, he has been sort of engaged to Violet all his life-one of those matches mothers make over their cradles. and which is an absolute necessity for a penni. less younger brother"
 Your cousin is very pretty" I said tentatively.
 T know assented Lady Isabel. i'm. patiently. but so are lots of other vo- men. and men never notice women they have known all their lives; be. sides he is in love just now"
 Who is she, Isn't she nice girl7''
 Nicer echoed Lady Isabel. raising her eyebrows with some slight show of irritation Yes. she may be nice enough for all I know don't know her. but she Is mere nohody-a gov erness. or a companion. or something "a dovdy little thing. who probably loves him entirely for himself. and won't give him up even although she knows he is poor"
 Must she give him upz-
 ~Of course she must answered Lady Isabel sharply Papa says he will cut Cyril out of his will if he does not marry Violet. and he has left il entirely to me to manage
 Is your father angry about itz-
 -Angry7 He is simply furious have just been interviewing him-l mean Cyril-but he says be doesn't care . button about the goxernor, and

things I could say and some I. of course, could only hint-and she turned very icy at once. and could see 1t would be all right, and so thanked her-no. mean. of course. she thanked me, and then came away"
 Poor girl" repeated.
 "Oh! she'll soon get over fiat least, can't imagine anyone fretting long for Cyril; but I was in an awful fright at first. because thought she might have had the emeralds changed for paste, you know" "Oh, lsabel!"
 My dear Marjorie, please don't say oh, Isabel in that tone--it's just the sort of thing girl in that class would do; and even two or three of the stones would have kept her in clothes for year. Anyhow, you know. don't really trust anybody, so I took them to Rubenstein's and had them looked at."
 And were they all right?"
 She nodded. "Yes. I am bound to say they were. She was evidently quite as honorable as even Violet or I. in spite of the fact that she is mere nobody"
 Perhaps. indeed. even for that very reason" said, with mild sarcasm.
 All this having happened at the end of last year. Lady violets marriage is already thing of the past.
 But yesterday morning was sud denly reminded of poor Miss Burnett and the emeralds. Lady Isabel and were driving from Dover street into Piccadilly. when she turned suddenly to me and said. "Oh. by the way. dear. do you mind stopping at Ruben steins? I want to get my diamond brooch, left it to be cleaned and mended the other day"
 As we reached the shop door . tall woman standing with her back to us was saying in high. languid voice. that made Lady Isabel start sharply and clasp my arm. "Yes. all right: by Monday next, then-but you will be sure and see they are exactly like the real stones"
 'oh. yes. your ladyship." answered the junior partner. -our limitations are quite perfect. you really need have no anxiety; in these days. indeed. it is often quite impossible to tell the real from the false"
 T do not. of course. want the family to know" said Lady Violet, but it's only for a time; hope to soon be free from my little difficulties. and then perhaps you'll put them back for me"
 -of course. your ladyship." iie be- Ian half hesitatingly. ''if'-but with a gesture Lady Isabel drew me into the street
 Well, she gasped. of all the low class frauds, Our family jewels How dare she, I shall go at once and tell papa and Cyril"
 My dear Isabel said soothingly, T beg you will not be 60 extremely foolish I can quite understand your natural dislike to a fraud, but should strongly advise you not to interfere It's never safe to interfere between the married. and 1t vas you who made the match between Lord Cyril and your cousin. instead of letting him nsru poor honest little Mss Nobody.

BLACK HAND LEADER
Pietro Pampinnelli Preyed on
 Italian Compatriots.
HE AND WIFE HELD FOR KIDNAPPING
Declared to Re Chief I'm Many Grim. final Child Stealing Plots to Bleed Hard Savings From Igno-
 rant Foreigners.


 NEW YORK. April 3o-After long and careful investigation Lieutenant Petrosini of the Italian branch of the detective bureau has landed the man he believes has been the instigator of the many Kidnapping Black Hand plots so common in the last few years. With three assistants he arrested Pietro Pampinnelli in Catherine street here on a charge of being implicated in the Eaitti Kidnapping.
 Petrosini says that Pampinneli is an expert penman. a shrewd judge of hu- man nature and absolutely unscrupu- lous. He is credited with adopting the expedient of Kidnapping the favorite child of wealthy Italian and then ex- acting blackmail from the parents by anonymous threats against the safety or even the life of the little captive. Petrosini put him through the third de- gree most of the night at police head quarters.
 While Pampinnelli was being ques- toned a handsome young Italian wo- man was in another cell at police head quarters. She has been positively iden- tified by Salvatore Saitti as the woman who cared for him when he was kid naped from his home on Jan. 9 and kept prisoner for weeks. during which time the boys parents received Black Hand letters threatening to murder him.
 It has now developed that Rosina is Pietro's wife and that the two live to- gether at a Roosevelt street. During the day Pietro poses as a fruit dealer. but at night. Petrosini says, he gets busy with his secret society and evolves schemes by which his country men can be bled for all the money they are believed to have saved.
 Il am positive in accusing this man." said Petrosini "I have evidence which convinces me that he has long fur nished the brains oil which the Black Hand has fiOurished- This man is not Ignorant. Ike 8 many of his country men who have been arrested charged with various crimes Ills e1ueatl0n IS far above the average man In this country, and he is shrewd and despcr- ate
 T expect to bring proof in the next few hours which will show that in the arrest of PanpinneIli ve have the man who can rightly be called the king of the Black Hands
 Petrosini Is said to have proof that at least five kidnsped children were hsr- bored by PampinneIIrs wife for time. Then when the scent got too hot and the poIrce were working close the chil- dren were sent to other quarters. and PampinneIIi would appear at his fruit sfore- il Is alleged full of business and giving 10 one even a suspicion that he v11 engaged in blacknzn

he shall marry whom he likes. The worst of it is" added Lady Isabel. "he has lent her my mothers string of emeralds-he got Bob to give it to him out of the safe where papa put 1t after poor mamma died. Bob has had charge of everything lately, since papa has been so i'll, and now'-Lady Isa- bel paused tragically-"he has had the audacity to give it to Cyril for this girl. because, he says, 1t was to go to Cyril's wife anyway. and have all the diamonds except the ones to go to his wife," she finished up little incoherently.
 This girl will perhaps give 1t back to him if he does not marry her."
 "Will she?" said Lady Isabel. Catch her doing anything so silly-I know I shouldn't if were in her place!"
 No, dear, am quite sure you wouldn't" rejoined. with what I felt was peculiarly feminine sweetness of tone.
 Marjorie. what am to do?" said Lady Isabel despairingly a day or SO later. q knew it was coming; and so has-violet She has asked papa to lend her those emeralds for Lady Av. ington's ball. and he has promised, and Cyril is in such state, he gave them to the girl because he couldn't afford a really nice ring-you know, he is like me, always hard up, and he says he is d. if he is going to take them away from her again. Men are SO dreadfully emphatic" sighed Lady Isabel. Tt is exactly what Vernon says when he means to have his own way"
 Well, what about the emeralds; do tell me what happenedT I asked as we sat chatting. about fortnight la ter, over luncheon.
 'I have got them" she said triumph. antly. Miss Burnett gave them to me at once. went and called upon her and asked her for them back my. self"
 What was she like7'
 "oh, a nice little thing" answered Lady Isabel. indinerently. Rather pretty-in sort of helpless dolly fashion"
 Why did she give them up to you.'
 Well. you see. she has given Cyril up as well"
 Really" said in amazement
 Yes; she refused to see him or an- sver his letters. and then I invited him and Violet to dine here. and threw them together. and dear Violet has so much tact" said Lady Isabel envious- ly, as though she was quite without that quality herself Cyril was furi. ously angry at first. but" she said presently. like all men. he got over 1t in a very short time. and nov, of course. he's going to marry Violet"
 But. my dear Isabel. how did you manage the other poor girl~ I asked ~She seems 'o have broken on her en gagement without giving you much trouble at any rate
 Yes said Lady Isabel thoughtfully, but it vas quite easy You know, these sort of middlecIass girls are much more particular about their men than we are she hesitated- And so-
