 He paused and it was evident that his earnest, truth-inspired words had affected Judge, jury and spectators alike.

 "As soon as l comprehended where was, recognized MT. Bristow standing over me. Through his aid I had escaped slipping into the dark and mysterious depths of eternity. When I had recovered suffi- ,ciently to understand the circumsyances which had grown about this remarkable case while my mind was blank, he ex- plained that in a secret drawer of Dr. Sel- den's writing table he had found diary in the handwriting of the dead physician. In this book, which I have here, is an entry which solves the mystery of Dr. Selden's life abroad It reveals how the doctor was compelled to join band op cut-throats in order to save his life; how he betrayed the order to the police, and how, stealing his child, the defendant in this case, from her grandfather, Giovanni Marlitti, leader of the secret society, known as the Crimson Circle, he fled with the ban of death at the hands of the men he had exposed hanging over him.
 Another entry states that he discovered

 "As soon as I was able to do so, MT. Bristow and I began systematic investi- gation of the mysterious attack upon me, for attack it was in way. I had been felled by heavy blow from behind while seated in the same chair in which the body of Dr. Selden was found.
 We soon decided that it would have been impossible for any one to have inflicted the blow that struck me down, as the back of my head had been fully protected by the chair back. Nevertheless, we searched the house thoroughly, but with no result until MT. Vignolos rushed in with the intelli- gence that Giovanni Marlitti had been shot to death by the Sheriff and that the leader dropped a word which was the key to the entire mystery.
 "We hurried to the study and examined the chair. Every inch of the massive piece of furniture was carefully gone over. When we reached the carving on the back, the central figure in the design, the hideous face of serpent seemed to leer at us indignantly. There was something about its opaline eyes-a threat or ev1l-that made me feel sure that MT. Vignolos' sus- picions were well founded.

Pushing harder, was rewarded by clicking sound like that made by the drawing back of a gun hammer. Fol- lowing this noise so quickly that the two were almost inseparable, the soft ring of metal against metal reached my ears. I caught flash of light reflected from the mouth of the serpent, which now seemed to glare with weird ferocity from out the mass of carving. Bending closer, I again pressed the spring. This time I saw some thing that startled me as nothing had ever done before.
 "Out of the mouth of the serpent there flashed for an instant short, narrow blade

Every mind seemed to sense what the yer dict would be.
 Suspense gripped the heart of every hu- man in the great, vaulted room. Senator Lysle leaned forward clutching the edge of the table before him until his knuckles purpled. The prisoner sat like an image chiseled from marble, her beseeching eyes glued to the faces of the 12 men who held her life in their hands.
 "How find you the verdict?" repeated the Judge.
 .'We find the prisoner guilty of murder in the first degreev'
 The words, each with the force of heavy blow, fell slowly from the foreman's lips.
 Nerissa Selden gave one shuddering cry. Then self-control reasserted itself. Imper- durability clothed her like a mask.
 Hold! In the name of God, withhold that verdictv'
 The words rang out with clarion-like distinctiveness. All eyes were turned upon the daring speaker.
 Colonel Judson Bainbridge, his head swathed in bandages and his face gray with pain and graven with the marks of long illness, stood just outside the railnig, his hand raised to stay the proceedings. On either side of him, half supporting his wa

 The jurors, one by one, flied out of the jury room to begin behind locked dors their deliberations over the fate of Nerissa Sel- den.
 Senator Lysle glanced anxiously about. Where was Bristow? At the reporters table, where half dozen men sat writing rapidly, one seat was vacant. Where was Vignolos?

 Scarcely believing the evidence of my eyes, l pressed the opal once more and again the polished blade flashed into view for an instant and was gone.
 ''Then we began frantically to take the chair to pieces. Within 10 minutes we had discovered the secret of the hidden poniard and cleared up the mystery of Dr. Selden's death.
 Concealed in the thick back of the chair was small, triangular blade fastened to an ingeniously contrived spring.

In his entry is set forth the fact that his daughter, the accused, had told him of these things and that she had stated her intention of going to her grand father, who her uncle had represented as being critically Ill.

 Hundreds of pairs of eyes, refledting every shade of amazement and curiosity, were fixed upon the old lawyer; hundreds of pairs of ears awaited his next words. These came with startling emphasis.

 Instantly the courtroom was surcharged with excitement.
 "Upon what ground do you make your assertion?" demanded the Judge.
 Colonel Bainbridge advanced within the railing. In his eyes glowed a wondrous light of victory.

Would they arrive with evidence to clear his client? Would the jury convict, acquit or disagree? He saw little but the Former for them to do. But he sat stolidly, his face revealing nothing of the perturbation that gripped his heart.

 The trial had been terrible strain upon participants and spectators alike. Now that the noted case was about to reach a climax, reaction set in. Sobs could be heard from some of the more historically inclined of the women. Many of the men sat with aching throats and moist dyes.
