mission priest from the PassiOnist
retreat located at Norwood Park, Chi

Seel has been in charge of the must

charged with his usual ability.
If possible, a larger and more ap-
preciative crowd greeted Father ISa-

was present on Sunday night, and It
is safe to say that the congregations

The Mystery of
The Yellow Room
By CASTOR LEROUx \, COPYRIGHT ~ l" SsrurAro,

( would never again see her husband
the horrible Balimeyer. A report was
spread a few weeks later that he was
dead, and she now determined to atone
for her disobedience by a life Of labor
and devotion for her father And she
kept her word.
All this she had confessed to Robert
Darzac, and, believing Ballmeyer dead,
had given herself to the Joy Of union
with him But fate had resuscitated
Jean Roussel, the Ballmeyer Of her
youth. He had taken steps to let her
know that he would never allow her to
marry Darzac-that he still loved her.
Nile. Stangerson never for one mo-
ment hesitated to confide in NJ. Darzac.
She showed him the letter in which
Jean Roussel asked her to recall the
first hours Of their union in their beau
tiful and charming Louisville home
THE presbytery has lost nothing of its
charm nor the garden it's brightness
he had written. The scoundrel pre-
tended to be rich and claimed the right
of taking her back to Louisville. She
had told Darzac that If her father
should know Of her dishonor she would
kill herself NJ. Darzac had sworn to
silence her prosecutor, even if he had
to kill him. He was outwitted and
would have succumbed had it not been
for the genius Of Rouletabille.
Mile. Stangerson was herself help
less in the hands of such a villain.
She had tried to kill him when he had
first threatened and then attacked her
in the yellow room. She had, unfor-
tunately, failed and felt herself con-
demned to be forever at the mercy Of
this INSCRIPTIONS wretch who was
continually demanding her. presence at
clandestine interviews. When he sent
her the letter through the postoffice
asking her to meet him she had re-
fused. The result of her refusal was
the tragedy Of the yellow room. The
second time he wrote asking for a
meeting, the letter reaching her in her
sick chamber, she had avoided him by
with her women. In that let
ter the scroundrel had warned her
that, since she was too i'll to come to
him, he would come to her and that he
would be in her chamber at a par
ticular hour on a particular night
that she had everything to
fear from Ballmeyer, she had left her
cha mher on that night. 1t was then

4 that the incident OF the "inexpncaDle
gallery occurred
The third time she had determined
to keep the appointment. He asked
for II in the letter he had written in
her own room on the night of the In
cident in the gallery, which he left on
her desk. In that letter he threatened
to burn her fathers papers If she did
not meet him 1t was to rescue these
papers that she made up her mind to
see him. She did not for one moment
doubt that the wretch would carry out
his threat II she persisted in avoiding
him, and in that case the labors Of her
fathers lifetime would be forever lost.
Since the meeting was thus inevitable
she resolved to see her husband and
appeal to bis better nature. 1t was for
this interview that she had prepared
herself on the night the keeper was
killed. They did meet, and what pass
ed between them may be imagined.
He insisted that she renounce Darzac.
She. on her part, affirmed her love for
him. He stabbed her In his anger, de-
termined to convict Darzac of the
crime. AS Larsan he could do It and
had so managed things that Darzac
could never explain how he had en-
ployed the time of his absence from
the chateau. Ballmeyer's precautions
were most cunningly taken.
Larsan had threatened Darzac as he
bad threatened Mathilde-with the
same weapon and the same threats.
He wrote Darzac urgent letters declar-
ing himself ready to deliver up the let
ters that had passed between him and
his wife and to leave them forever
if he would pay him his price. He
asked Darzac to meet him for the pur-
pose of arranging the matter, appoint
ing the time when Larsan would be
with Mile. Stangerson. When Darzac
went to Epinay. expecting to find Ball
meyer, or Larsan, there, he was met by
an accomplice of Larsan's and kept
waiting until such time as the "coinci-
dence" could be established.
1t was all done with Machiavellian
cunning, but Ballmeyer had reckoned
without Joseph Rouletabille.
Now that the mystery of the yellow
room has been cleared up this is not
the time to tell Of Rouletnbille's ad-
ventures in America. Knowing the

=, IenceT ArLer so many years ana the
publicity given the case by curious
and shameless press, now that M,
Stangerson knows all and has forgiven
all, all may be told. In every phase
Of this remarkable story Mile. Stan
gerson had always been the sufferer.
The beginning dates from the time
when, as a young girl, she was living
with her father In Philadelphia. A
visitor at the house, a Frenchman, had
succeeded by his wit, grace and per-
sistent attention In gaining her affec-
lions. He was said to be rich and had
asked her Of her father. M. Stanger-
son, on making inquiries as to M.
Jean Roussel found that the man was
swindler and an adventurer Jean
Roussel was but another of the many
names under which the notorious Ball
meyer, a fugitive from France, tried
to hide himself. M. Stangerson did
not know of his identity with Ball
meyer. He learned that the man was
simply undesirable for his daughter.
He not only refused to give his consen'
10 the marriage, but denied him adj
mission into the house. Mathilde
Stangerson, however, had fallen in
love. To her Jean Roussel was every
thing that her love painted him. She
was indignant at her fathers attitude
and did not conceal her feelings. Her
father sent her to stay with an aunt
in Cincinnati. There she was Joined
by Jean Roussel and, in spite of the
reverence she felt for her father, ran
away with him to get married.
They went to Louisville and lived
there for some time. One morning, how
ever, knock came at the door of the
house In which they were, and the po-
dee entered to arrest Jean RousseL 1t
was then that Mathilde Stangerson, or
Roussel, learned that her husband was
no other than the notorious Ballmeyerl
The young woman in her despair
tried to commit suicide. she failed in
this, and was forced to rejoin her aunt
at Cincinnati. The old lady was over
joyed to see her again. She had been
anxiously searching for her and had
not dared to tell NJ. Stangerson of her

met in the witnesses room on the Gay
Of the trial
The strange Roussel-stangerson mys.
.ery had now been laid bare. Who
was this Jean Roussel7 Rouietabilie
had traced him from Philadelphia to
Cincinnati. In Clncinpati he became
acquainted with the old aunt and had
found means to open her mouth. The
story Of Ballmeyer's arrest threw the
right light on the whole story. He
visited the ''presbytery," a small and
pretty dwelling in the old colonial
style. which had indeed 'lost nothing
of its charm" Then, abandoning his
pursuit Of traces Of Mile. stangerson,
he took up those Of Ballmeyer. He
followed them from prison to prison,
from crime to crime. Finally as he
was about leaving for Europe he learn
ed in New York that Ballmeyer had
five years before embarked for France
with some valuable papers belonging
to a merchant Of New Orleans whom
he had murdered.
And yet the whole Of this mystery
has not been revealed. Mile. Stanger-
son had a child by her husband, son.
The infant was born in the old aunt's
house. No one knew of it, so well
had the aunt managed to conceal the
event.
What became Of that SOM That is
another story, which so far / am not
permitted to relate.
