Alexandria during the first half of the
last century, failed to throw the
slightest Hight upon the mystery.
The facts in the case are few, but,
such as they are, they are supported
by the unassailable evidence of a num-
Der of persons who were eyewitnesses
to the brief public appearance of the
female stranger" The brig Four
Sons locked at Alexandria on July
%, 1916, en- route from Halifax to the
West Indies. The Virginia city was
not port of call on the regular route,
but the captain stated that one of his
passengers had been taken dangerously
i'll and that her husband had demand
ed that she be put ashore at Alexan-
drla, where a boat was lowered, and
man and woman, the latter apparently
very i'll, were taken ashore.
Despite the heat of midsummer, the
woman wore a heavy black VEIL and
her husband secured the best suite in
the Inn of the Bunch of Grapes, as
well as the services of well-known
physician whom he engaged only after
in the presence of the doctor. however,
the woman's face was kept yelled, and
the husband steadfastly refused to
hire q nurse, saying that he was en-
tirely capable of handling the case
and that he was able to do anything
that nurse could do.
AS the weeks of scorching hot
1vaofbor prouroccod howavar tho man
began to wilt under the constant strain
of watching beside the bed and finally
agreed to permit two of the guests
in the Inn to help him-but only after
they had taken an oath that nothing
they might learn would ever be
diyulged, an oath which was kept as
a sacred trust
During the ten weeks which fol-
lowed the woman's arrival In Alexan-
dria, she grew steadily worse, and at
last, at dawn ON October 4, her hus-
band announced that she had died.
Then, for fear that someone might see
the face which he had kept hidden
from the world he himself prepared
the body for burial, sealed the lid of
the coffin, and, after attending the
funeral and ordering the headstone
with the strange inscription, disap-
peared.
On October 4 of the following year,
Alexandria was surprised at the sud-
den and unheralded return of the hus-
band, who remained in The city only
long enough to place flowers on the
grave of the female stranger" and to
see that the plot in the cemetery was
we'll taken care of. Once a year, for
twelve years, he returned. Then his
visits ceased and the grave was neg
lected until, a number of years later
distinguished elderly man and wom-
an came and ordered the monument
to be replaced by another and more
costly headstone bearing the same In
scription, with the addition of the
verse:
How loved, how honored once, avails
thee not,
A heap of dust alone remains of thee,
be.
They, too, vanished-taking with
them the secret of the identity of the
woman whose history and personality
is forever hidden from the world be-

Disorders Result From
Disagreement Over Wages
.Rv Associated Pressl

CALCUTTA, May 9.-Some disor-
ders have resulted from the strike of
employees of the East Indian railway
which began Feb. % in consequence
of disagreement over wages. The
strikers at Anasol burned the tenn
porary quarters occupied by the work
ers there and this started fracas be-
tween the workers and the strikers,
two of whom were injured Magis-
trates at Allahabad and Dhanbad
have prohibited gatherings of more
than 10 men because the strikers were
holding mass meetings and intimidat-
ing the employees who wanted to work.
More than half the Calcutta SUI
burban trains, which usually carried
about 10000 passengers each way
daily, have been discounted owing to
the strike.
The secretary of the Indian Labor
association has called for a confer
ence of railway delegates to be held
at Anasol to discuss terms of settle
ment which have been offered by the
East Indian railway.
