HE I Msurclh, 2 Synopsis of Preceding Chapters. CHAPTER I Thomas Erichsen, a youns Englishman, has lost the money with which he was to pay his passage out to India. He lends Captain Blaydes 35, the amount of his passage money, and in return gets a worthless check, which leaves him penniless. He confesses his error to Claire Harding, his boyhood sweetheart. II. James Edward "William Daintree is in love with Claire. "Ill Tom finds out that Captain Blaydes is paying attention to Claire and is to be at her house that night. He vows to have satisfaction from Blaydes, but promises Claire that he will not seek Blaydes for two weeks. Tom meets Blaydes a few moments la to and demands his 35. IV. Blaydes draws a sword cane on Tom, who smashes it with a heavy stick which he carries. Blaydes has not the money, but gives Tom his gold watch, and Tom signs an agree ment to pawn the watch and give the ticket to Blaydes. Tom leaves and is accosted by a deformed man, who asks the time.- The next morning Blaydes Is found brutally murdered beside the stile where he had been talking to Tom. V. Blaydes has been robbed of everything, among which the newspapers mention the gold watch which was really given to Tom. Tom had stopped for the night at the house of the man who was driving the coach at the time Tom met Blaydes. He is accused by the coachman of being the murderer. He escapes and disguises himself, but is afraid to pawn the. watch. VI Tom spends the night in a boathouse and next day is invited into the house of a email fat gentleman, the owner, who does his best to make him feel at home. He Is betrayed by this man into the hands of the police for the murder of Blaydes. And.' with his ci...d!ike laugn, ne handed Tom one steaming tumbler. mixed another for himself and insisted on clinking glasses before they drank. Tom spilt some of his portion upon the floor, but his kind host never noticed it. He. was next Invited to take a pinch from a silver mounted horn snuffbox. This he refused as politely as bis state of mind would permit. He trembled to know whether the old gentleman had really eschewed all" accounts" of "the murder. To make certain he hazarded a leading question. "It seems to be a queer affair, sir. Do you think they'll ever catch him?" "My good fellow, I haven't read the case." Tom drew a deep breath and tossed off his negus at a gulp. At that moment there, came a knock at the door and a small maid entered. "Ready. Mary:-" "Yes. sir." ' "Then come this way, my dear young gentleman." the old one said, with his most benevolent smile: "upstairs. Fellow the maid. I will follow you." Tom hesitated, but gave in without a word. He was, indeed, as hungry as he was irrateful, and he followed the servant upstairs, with the jolly old fellow chatting pleasantly at his heels. "The shoes you shall have immediately. What, would you shake my hand? Ah. my good fellow, I fear it's but meager entertainment that I can offer you. Well, well, if you insist! But that's the door. Pray walk In. He. he, he. he!" And ere the chirruping laugh had ended Tom s night was over and he was In the hands of two policemen, who had securely pinned him by either arm. Resistance was useless. But from the officers' faces a last hope flickered In his breast. "What do you want me for?" he crfed. "What Is the charge, sir?" asked one of the constables sotto voce of the master of the house. "Can't you see?" piped that trium phant humorist. "It's the Hampstead murderer! I knew the fellow with half an eye." CHAPTER VII. 1 1 HE morning after the discovery I of the murder Nicholas Hardi I ing went to Ixmdon. All day there came no word from the master of the house, nor did the coach return, but between 9 and 10 It did. and Mr. Hardinir was out and up the steps before it stopped. In the hall he inquired for his daughter. She had gone upstairs. He rushed up Instantly. Claire was waiting for him at her bedroom door. He thundered In and shut it behind him. -They have got himr cried Claire, with both hands to her heart. "Got whom?"' said her father sharply. "Got whom, eh?" Her face fell beneath the angry glitter In his eye. "The man-they want for this frightful' business." said she lamely ana fans down upon a chair. "And pray who is he? You eeem to knowr No answer, save twitching fingers, rocked body, lowered lids. "If you were to hear It "was that young Erichsen would It surprise you very much? No: it would r.otr' It had only stilled her. "And now I intend to know why not. You have thrown sand enough In my eyes, but your manner this morning told me some-. thing, find I ntn determined to know a!l there Is to know before I leave this room. And with no less emphatic deliberation the father strode to the door, beked It and pocketed the key. but was met on his return with such wild eyes aad suppliant hands that even bis harsh heart melted at the slght"Only tell me whether they have captured him." she said, "and I faithfully promise to tell you all." "Well. then, they have not. but the

You have entangled yourself with a young fellow whose fate. If he be caught, one would rather not cou template. You may even be called as a witness against him, if last night's interview leaked out. And if you told a jury all you have told me, about the address and all that, I am afraid it .would hang him if nothing else did.! "Hang Tom!" "Well, Claire, it looks to me very like a hanging matter. It would need a very clever and probably a very costly defense to give him the ghost of a chance of having it brought in anj-thing less." "Then he must have It!" cried Claire, "Oh, he never could have done itwillfully! He must have the very best defense that can be got, but, oh, who will pay for it?" "I am thinking of doing so myself," replied Mr. Harding quietly. "I don't say I will, but I may." "You!" And the girl was sobbing upon his breast, with her arms about bis thick red neck, as they had not been for many a year now. He removed them, but almost gently, and told her not to jump at conclusions, as he had by no means maae up nis mma. maeeu, jet xnem nrsc caicn meir man. cut as uie lads father had been his constituent as wen as uis enemy, ou wuu ne uau yemai.s ueeu u uuiu. u,uUSUi tnat on me wnoie it mignt prove ine rignt ana proper ining to ao. ijaire was overwhelmed, not only with gratitude for a first gleam of comfort, but also with shame. All these years she had misjudged that magnanimous man. her own father, and what coals of fire was he heaping on her undutiful bead! She cried herself to sleep with shame and hope, and that was when Tom Erichsen was flying south from Westbourne park, with the police in full cry at his heels. Thomas Erichsen had been apprehended at Kew on the Saturday evenIng and lodged for that night in the local lockup. The bare fact was read by Mr. Harding in next day's Dispatch and by Claire in her father's face before she heard it from his lips at twenty minutes to 11 in the morning. On the Monday morning she gave him his breakfast early and alone, and he then assured her that he was going to see what could be done. Mr. Harding did not consult his own lawyer, but he went on foot to the pur lieus of the Old Bailey and there mounted to a noisome den. with his shoulders up and his hat well over his eyes. He departed as furtively some minutes later and was followed down the breakneck stairs bv an unclean culture of a man with suuffy beak and grimy talons, who skipped into a cabriolet and was driven at speed to the Marvlebone office. There was a dense crowd outside, but with the free use of his own elbows and Mr. Harding's money the Old Bailey lawyer fought and bought his way in. He was in time to witness the formal remand of Thomas Erichtseu aim 10 uraw uts uwu uuutiuoiuu rrom tne doici nxea eyes ana iremujousiy scorniui ups ueniua xue iron railing or. uie cock, inai ioo was less for the magistrate than for the opera glasses of the noble lord whom the magistrate had allowed upon the bench. But the Old Bailey lawyer read ii ms owu wa, ntr u 8rmBV guilty man putting a face of brass u on a heart of putty, the very type with which he was best accustomed and most competent to deal. So the vul ture took a pinch of snuff that resound ed through the court and, on the pris oner's removal, squeezed out himself to make Inquiries. It was as he ex pected. The prisoner would be conveyed immediately to the new prison at Clerkenwell. But the attorney managed to get away first through the swelling crowd now on tiptoe for the prison van, and In a neighboring tavern he had his heartiest meal that year, also with Mr. Harding's money. Between 3 and 4 he presented himself, well primed, at Clerkenwell and sent in a greasy card to the prisoner. "He is much obliged, but he doesn't want to see you," said the turnkey on his reappearance. "Tell him I am commissioned by his friends to get up his defense. No expense to be spared. Tell lilm that." The turnkey was gone longer, but came back shaking his head. He says it is Impossible. He has no friends, and you mention no name. "That is true, but my client's name Is the one thing my client will not give." This did it. The ambassador returned, beckoning, and conducted the visitor to a narrow, dark cell, at the end of which glowered the prisoner on his bed. Two more tufnkcys joined them at the door. "Do you want to be alone with him?'' said they. "It is absolutely necessary." "Very well. We wait outside." And the three officials withdrew across the corridor and chatted a little, but kent an eye on the ooen door. They saw the lawyer seat himself upon the chair at a gesture from the

prisoner, who restrained him with another as he edged it nearer and nearer the bed. They heard the lawyer's whisper, low and rapid, and saw his dirty, gesticulating lingers, but not his face, only that of the prisoner, calm and cold. Suddenly It flared up, and next instant the visitor was hurled through the open door, and Thomas Erichsen stood with the empty chair poised a moment before dashing it after him with a yell of rage. Two of tLe turnkeys rushed In and secured this caged tiger, while the third knelt over the Old Bailey lawyer, who lav nioinin? outside. XTa J3o CoaUnuodj.

A Woman Tells How to Relieve Rheu matic Fains. - I have been a very great sufferer from the dreadful disease, rheumatism for a number of years. I have tried many medicines but never got much relief from any of them until two years ago when I bought a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. I found relief before I had used all of one bottle, but kept on applying it and soon felt like a different woman. Through my advice many of my friends have tried it and can tell you how wonderfully it has worked. Mrs. Sarah A. Cole, 140 S. New St., Dover, Del. Chamberlain's Pain Balm is a liniment.

Uo you Like Honest, Square TBealin& ? Dr. Pierce's world-famed medicines are put out under the belief tixat publicity is the best possible guaranty of merit, and that the most intelligent people generally want to know what they take into their stomachs, whether it be as food, drink or medicine. Although it was a bold step to take, and quite out of the usual practice of makers of proprietary medicines, yet Dr. Pierce, some time ago, decided to publish broadcast and on all his bottle-wrappers all the ingredients entering into the composition, or make-up, of his celebrated family medicines. A square deal is therefore assured every one using his medicines, for one knows exactly what he or she is paying for when purchasing them, since every ingredient is published in plain English on the bottle-wrappers end the correctness of tfu same attested under solemn oath. These several ingredients are selected from among the very best known to medical scienc for the cure of the various diseases for which these medicines ar recommended.

The most eminent and leading medical teachers and writers of all the several schools of practice have endorsed each of the ingredients entering into Dr. Pierce's medicines in the strongest posaiblrterms. The makers of Dr. Pierce's medicines believeVhat intelligent people do not Vie h to opn their mouths like a lotVofl young birlrta and gulp down w hate ve ys.pnfcse tieayto them, either in the way oiTooTff, fmVk or medicine, without knowing sftmWitng of the properties and harmless character of the agents employed.

They are so compounded that they cannot cio harm in any ease, even to the most delicate u oman or child. By open publicity Dr. Pierce has taken his medicines out of the list of secret nostrums, of doubtful merit, and made Jiem REMEDIES OF KNOWX COMPO SITION, I hey are therefore, in a class all by themselves, being absolutely and in every sense non-secret. By this bold step Dr. Pierce has shown that his formulas are of such excellence that he is not afraid to subject them to the fullest scrutiny. There is a bodge of honesty on every bottle of Dr. Pierce's medicines in the full list of its ingredients duly attested as correct under solemn oath. No other medicines put up for general use through druggists can. make claim to any such distinction, and none other than Dr. Pierce'a medicines have any such professional endorsement of their ingredients. Such professional endorsement t-hould have far more weight with the afflicted than anv amount of lay, or non-professional, endorsement, or testimonials. Of course, the exact proportion of each ingredient csod in Dr. Pierce's medicines as well as the working formula or manner of preparing the same, and the specially devised apparatus and ap pliances employed in their manufacture, are withheld "from publicity that Dr. Pierce'a proprietary rights may be fully protected from such unprincipled imitators as might be piratically inclined.

What Do They Cure? This question is often asked concerning Dr. Pierce's tw o leading medicines, 'Mtoldea Medical Discovery" and "Favorite Prescription." TLe answer is fhal 'HJoklen Medical Discovery" is a most potent alterative or biood-puriSer, and tonic or invigorator and acta especially favorably in a curative and healing way upon all tli mucous lining surfaces as of the naeal passages, throat, bronchial tubes, stomach, bowels and bladder, curing a large ' per cent, of catarrhal case whether the disease affects the nasal passages, the throat, larynx, bronchia, stomach (as catarrhal dyspepsia) , bowjjs (as mucous diarrhea), "bladder, uterus or other pelvic organs.

It is a powerful yet gently acting invigorating tonic and strengthening nervine. For weak, wornout, over-worked women no matter what has caused the break-down, "Favorite Prescription " will be found mott effective in building up the strength, regulating the womanly functions, subduing pain and bringing about a healthy, vigorous condition of tie whole system.
