The Mystery
 of TheYeIIOW Room By GASTON LEROUx corvrisbt ro0a hv pr.r,.co,.
By GASTON LEROUx

"Ah, you cant find anything. mon. sieur. Nothing has been found. And now it is all dirty. Too many persons have tramped over 1t. They wouldn't let me wash 1t, but on the day of the , crime l had washed the floor thor oughly. and if the murderer had cross ed it with his hobnailed boots should not have failed to see where he had been. he has left marks enough in inademoiselle's chamber"
 Rouletabllle rose.
 When was the last time you washed these tilesT' he asked. and he fixed on Daddy Jacques most searching look.
 ''Why--as I told you--on the day of the crime, toward half past 5-while mademoiselle and her father were talk ing little walk before dinner here in this room. They dined in the labora, tory The next day the examining magistrate came and saw all the marls there were on the floor as plainly as # they had been made with ink op- -wEttc paper. Well, neither in the laboratory nor in the vestibule which we're both as clean as new pin. were there any traces of a mans footmaiks. Since they have been found near this win dow outside, he must have made his way through the ceiling of the yellow room into the attic. then cut his way through the roof and dropped to the ground outside the vestibule window. nvxt hAlA tv. ftxn .Al1 ing of the yellow room nor in the roof of my attic; that's absolutely certain. So, you see, we know nothing-noth- ing. And nothing will ever be known! It's mystery of the devils own mak- ing"
 Rouletabille went down upon his knees again almost in front of a small lavatory at the back of the vestibule. In that position he remained for about minute.
 'WellT' I asked him when he got up.
 "Oh, nothing very important. A drop of blood" he replied, turning toward Daddy Jacques as he spoke. While you were washing the laboratory and this vestibule was the vestibule win dow ppenT" he asked.
 No. monsieur. 1t was. closed. But after I had done washing the floor lit some charcoal for monsieur In the laboratory furnace, and as lit 1t with old newspapers it smoked, so opened both the windows fin the labo- ratory and this one to make current

 Impossible to get out that way" he said, jumping back into the laboratory. Besides, even if he had tried to do it. he would have brought all that iron work down to the ground. No, no; 1t is not on that side we have to search"
 Rouletabille next examined the fur niture and opened the doors of the cabinets. Then he came to the win dows, through which, he declared, no one could possibly have passed. At the second window he found Daddy Jacques in contemplation.
 Well. Daddy Jacques he said, "what are you looking at?"
 That policeman who is always go- ing round and round the lake. Another of those fellows who think they can see better than anybody elsew
 You don't know Frederic Larsan, Daddy Jacques, or you wouldn't speak of him in that way" said Rouletabille In melancholy tone. If there is any one who will find the murderer 1t will be he" And Rouletabille heaved a deep sigh.

had been blessed by having placed ir her hand one of tho announcements ot the company regarding its remedy, and that she had immediately bought one bottle of the medical substance, and that this one bottle wrought such won derful change in her physical condition that she was enabled to walk miles and miles each day.
 The alleged testimonial was read to the housekeepcr by one of the neigh bors, and Mrs. Berthsche declared that she had not been sick in years, that she had never before heard of the re markable curative powers of "Health Grains" and that her greatest trouble in life was to provide for herself and her five children. For that reason she had worked almost every day, she said washing and drying the powdery sub. stance used by Selzer
 There were also found in the rooms in which Selzer lived many stacks of letters which showed, apparently, that "Health Grains'' was popular rene dy throughout the country. There were many letters from St. Louis, Chicago, and St. Augustine. woman in Flor ida wrote to Selzer few days before his death that she had been told to take ''Health Grains. She had enclosed $5 for six boxes and she said she thought that amount would suffice for her pres. ent needs.
 In the room were molds such as are used by confeetioners, and it is pre-. sumed that Selzer ground up into fine powder the rock candy in these molds and then mixed the candy with maple sirup and other preparations, all of which went to make the Health Grains. There were many jars of maple sirup and many boxes of rock candy in the apartment.
 The printed covering in which the preparation was placed set forth that it was useful remedy in cases of in digestion, chills and fever and many comomn maladies.
 Before he died he left a will be. queathing all of his estate to his mar ried sister and a brother, both of whom live in Germany. It is known that he left two bankbooks showing that he had large deposits in Harlem banks and about sl20 cash in hand.

 My friend. who went about his work methodlcally. silently studied the room in which we were. It was large and well lighted. Two big windows al most bays-were protected by strong iron bars and looked out upon wide extent of country.
 The whole of one side of the labora. tory was taken up with large chim- ney, crucibles, ovens and such imple- ments as are needed for chemical ex- periments: tables loaded with vials, papers. reports, an electrical machine --an apparatus. as M. Darzac informed me, employed by Professor Stangerson to demonstrate the dissociation of mat ter under the action of solar light and other scientific implements.
 Along the walls were cabinets. plain or glass fronted, through which were visible microscopes. special photo graphic apparatus and large Quanti- ty of crystals.
 Rouletabiile. who was ferreting in the chimney, put his fingers into one of the crucIbles, Suddenly he drew himself up and held up piece of half consumed paper in his hand. He step ped up to where we were talking by one of the windows.

FORTUNE BUILT
 0N WASHED SAND
offered His Boarding House Land lady Seventy-five Gents Day to Wash and Dry Grains Which He Sold as Cure-All Medicine.

NEW YORK, December 25.--The death fJacob Selzer, letter carrier attached to the West Chester station revelaed the fact that he was the in, ventor of patent medicine preparation known as "Health Grains,'' and the fortune which he leaves is estimated at thousands of dollars.
 Selzer lived with Mrs. Bertha Berth sche, at Globe and St. Peter s avenues, West Chester. When her boarder sug. gested that she might make seventy five cents a day washing and baking what appeared to be quantity of white sand, Mrs. Bertsche being wid. ow, with five children, took the work. And she says she washed enough sand to beach ship.
 Selzer occupied the upper story of the small frame house where Mrs. Berthsche lived, and when his rooms were opened recently bags of the sand. like material which Mrs. Berthsche washed were found stored there. Cans of syrup and of rock candy were also found, and many tins labelled "Health Grains' were found and inspected. Testimonials by the hundred weight were stored away, and from the state ments of those who wrote them it would appear that "Health Grains {" was cure for all ills.
 Mrs. Berthsche said that it was an easy matter to run water through the sand like substance and then dry it in small pans on her kitchen range.
 The health grains" sold for sl . box, and the owner of the secret - gre wrich. Selzer leased the upper rooms in Mrs. Berthsche' s house last March. An that the neighbors knew about him was that he was one of the most courteous letter carriers who dis. tributed mail in the village of West Chester, and he showed a fondness for getting acquainted with medical mon.
 In one corner of the room was a pile of elaborately printed pamphlets and letters, apparently manifolded. One of the circulars was headed "Health Grains Company, Jacob Selzer, Propri- etor," and then followed a number of nicely worded testimonials. One of these testimonials purports to have been signed by the housekeeper. It states that some years ago, soon after she became resident of West Ches- ter village, she was stricken with rheu- matism and her affiietion resulted in her losing the use of her feet; that she

 Rouletabille went back into the lab oratory. closed the shutters of the two windows and the door of the ves- Hbule. When we were in complete darkness he lit wax vesta and asked Daddy Jacques to move to the middle of the chamber with it to the place where the night light was burning that night.
 Daddy Jacques. who was in his stockings-he usually left his sabots in the yestibule-entered the yellow room with his bit of a vesta. We vaguely distinguished objects over thrown on the floor, bed in one cor ner and in front of us to the left the gleam of looking glass hanging on the wall near to the bed.

 And he pushed open the shutter. The pale daylight entered from with out, throwing sinister light on the saffron colored walls. The Hoor-for though the laboratory and the vesti. bule were tiled the yellow room had flooring of wood--was covered with a single yellow mat which was large enough to cover nearly the whole room. under the bed and under the dressing table, the only piece of furni- ture that remained upright. The cen ter round table. the night table and two chairs had been overturned These did not prevent a large stain of blood being visible on the mat, made, as Daddy Jacques informed us, by the blood which had flowed from the wound on Mile. Stangcrson's forehead. Besides these stains drops of blood had fallen in all directions, in line with the visible traces of the foot steps. large and black, of the murder CT. Everything led to the presumption that these drops of blood had fallen from the wound of the man who had for moment placed his red hand on the wall There were other traces of the same hand on the wall, but much less distinct.
