Bad Blood.
Johnson B.Turner
in Phila.Transcript.
Detective Barney next entertained the members of the club with the foiling "It was in the early autumn of 1860. Munroe Harmer was an eccentric gentleman of considerable wealth and few relatives to inherit it after his death, but thoHe few were eagerly awaiting the hour when Mr. Harmer would shuffle off this mortal coil, so that they might feast on the gold he seemed to value so lightly." "He was a childles-s widower, and was evidently averse to enter the state of matrimony again. He was just above forty and in robust health but being of a quiet and rather melancholy disposition, bo lives the life of a recluse, as it were, in the suburbs of the city of Richmond, Va." "The relatives mentioned were third or fourth cousins to Mr. Harmar, and were accounted mean fellows by those who knew them. Their names were Conrad Dowling, Franklin Winters and James Baer. The two former were naen of family, but Baer wes unmarried and aged twenty-three the others were five and ten years his senior." "Mr Harmar did not appear to like either of them very much, arid so frequently expressed himself when in conversation with a friend, and either of theii names were alluded to. Yet he also was heard to remark that as they were his relatives, he would remember them in his will if they survived him." "His household conflated of a middleaged house-keeper, Mrs. Wallis, a chambermaid, cook, kitchen girl arid an adopted orphan girl, about fourteen years of age, named Ora Manheim. She was a diminutive creature for her age, but pretty and well developed. She was of the' blonde type, with blue eves and fair yellow hafr, and a skin like wax. He took a fancy to the girl, whom he first saw at the county almshouse, and obtained permission from th6 c®mmissioner to take her away, with the intention of adopting her, in a measure, for Hhe was to retain her own /amily name." "Ho procured a teacher for her, and in a year after she becamo a inmate of his household sho had made rapid progress gavo promise of beplTt "The cousins and presumptive heirs did not fancy this newmovo of their eccentric relative they were already jealous of each other to such a degree that they ceased to be friends, and spoke ill of each other—literally "kottles calling pots smut," as their characters were not sufficiently defective without disparaging each other."
in Iter studies, and gavo promise coming an accomplished woman."
'ifad they been united against the girl whom they regarded as an interloper, they might have effected her disgrace and driven her out of the house of her protocter but instoad of this, each one favored her with evil eyos and harsh inuendoes, and did their individual best to lower her in the estimation of Mr. Harmar,who was vastly amused at their absurd proceedings, but liked the girl none the less." "In fact, she had taken such a firm hold on his affection that all their puny efforts to injure her were worse than Useless, and, as Mrs. Wallis was heard to 'remark, 'Those jackals had better let the lion's pot alone, or somo tine day they will find that the lion has left nothing for them." l'ossihiy Mrs. Wnllis know what she was snyiiig, for at that time Mr, Harmar was floriously thinking of making his will, and the good lady judged by what sho observed that ra would come in for a goodly share of her master's proporty, and so, probably, those anxious souls, the cousins thought hence their animosity toward the girl." '•'Mr. Harmar made his will, but its contents were not known, for the instrument was ox ecu ted at his attorney's
Otlieo, and the names ot those who siguedit as witnesses were likewise a secrot to all save the testator and his legal advisor." "But those of Mr. Hanuar's household hail their opinions, and by comparing them it was found that they wore all of the same impression, whldh was that Ora Manheim would bo .the principal legate, if not the sole heir. But the servants also agreed on this pnint, not to even hint such a thing to thogirl, it might create harm the girl might prosumeon her prospective position among them, and income arrogant and presuming. So the girl was kept in ignorance of Iter future possible bright prospects." "One day Powling was found lying dead in a clump of bushes near his houso, which stood away from the public highway, some two miles beyond the city limits." "An examination of the body revealed the fact that he bad boon murdered in a itko.il novel vet horrible manner. A small dart or leathered barb, scarcely an iuch long, was found in his temple, which it had pierced to the depth of half an inch. When the depth of the wound add its apparent insignificance was considered it was suspected that the fine
add tta at
steel point had been poisoned, and this was subsequently ascertained to be so. loath, most prohably, had been instantaneous." "The ill-feeling that was known to exis between the three rival cousins and presumptive heirs naturally caused the two others to te regarded with suspicion. That our or the other had done the deed t« rid himself of one heir at least, folks hinted openly, and I* was detailed to work up the case." "In the course of mv investigations I ascertained that Jauios Baer was apparently innocent. Two days lefore the occurrences he had left the city and become mixed up in a bar-room fight at Hungary station on tho Richmond, Kredeticksburg and l'otomic Railroad, some ume or leu miles north of the city. In the brawl he was severely handled, and was then confined to hisbed with a dangerous wound in his right side, caused bv a knife thrust." "On making careful inquiries I learned that this occurred at least twentyfour hours before Dow ling's body was found hence Baer could not bare been in the vicinity at the time the man met his death." "Suspicion then pointed directlv to Franklin Winters, who, like Dowfing. was a truck-farmer and lived several miles from Richmond and nearly mile from Dowling's." "I could not arrest him on bare suspicion, so I secretly went to work and «ndc*vored to find out what Winters had l«*n engaged at during the hoars of 9 a. m. and 4 p. in." ••I traced Ms movements from the first-named hour opto 3 p. m., but could trace bin) no fart Iter so 1 derided that if could not discover how he had been employed during that hour I would ask him to* toll me. and in the event of hi* inability or refusal to to Jake him into custody on suspicion.
"I labored assidaously all that day and part of the forenoon of the next, bnt failed in my endeavors so I proceeded to his house to make the necessary inquiries of him, but bis wife said he had left the house two hoars before and had not yet returned. "Before night his dead body was found about a mile from bis house with a poisoned barb, similar to the other, imbedded in his temple." "Here was a mystery. Some one was engaged in removing Mr. Harmar's heirs out of the way. But who was this secret assasin "Was it possible that James Baer had really hired some one to commit these deeds It seemed quite possible, to say the least, and the affray in which he got stabbed may have been part of the plot gotten up to ward off suspicion." "I consulted with Mr. Harmar and asked his opinion. He seemed to regard the matter very highly, indeed." He said: 'I have not given the matter my undivided attention, so I have not formed an opinion. But if this mysterious aoon-day assassin would, attend to the dissipated Baer also. I would congratulate myself on being well rid of three most uncompromising kindsmen, who would gladly see me laid in my grave so that they might enjoy my wealth.'" "'But do you not consider it your duty, nevertheless, to have this matter thoroughly investigated?'" asked I, shocked at his levity. 'The municipal authorities have employed for that purpose besides, why should I take a personal interest in it any more than you or any other individual person demanded he. 'They are your relatives,'" said I. "'Yes, and precious ones they were, to," rejoined he, with some bitterness. 'They have said some scurrilous things of me, since I took this poor orphan into my house they insinuated quite openly, too, that I took her with the design of eventualy making her my mistress, the hounds. I sympathize with their families, and shall do what I can to make them feel their loss less keenly, but I have not a spark of feeling to waste on the dead revllers.'" "I glanced sharply at him as he uttered these words, and a faint possibility that he might have encompassed their deaths presented itself. A motive could be established they had stigmatized him as a libertine in contemplation, and few men would remain passive under such an insult." "I left his presence with conflicting thoughts in my heart. The man did not look like one who could coolly plan to destroy two lives simply becauso he suffered injustice at their hands, yet who else could nave dono tho deed?" 'Either Harmar or Baer did the deed,'" thought I, as I took the morning train forTlungary next morning to interview Baer. "I reached the station and was told that he had died during the night." 'All three gone? Now who will be tho next?'" I asked myself, and my mindwas perfectly bewildered with the conflicting thoughts that prevaded my bosom. Who was this mysterious and invisible assassin? After the death of Winters, I first suspected Baer, after which Mr. Harmar gave me good cause for suspecting him likewise. "Beforo I left the house Mr. Harmar came in, and when I requested a private Interview he took me into his library, where I told him of Baei's death, also mentioning the circumstances connected with it." •My three expectant heirs dead!'" cried he with a serio-eomicexpression on hlfc faco. 'Who will wrangle now abont my possessions?' 'The remaining heir may congratulate herself on ooing forever rid of thorn,' remarked I, in a careless tone.
You refer to Ora 'Yes.'" "'Well, yes I shall probably leavo her something after I am gone,'" said he, thoughtfully. '•Thenvou have not yet made your will I asked. "'N-o—or, rather yos,"' he replied, lowering his voii«. 'I don't mino telling you. Mr, Ryan, that I have made my will and loft the best part of it to the girl. But now, that my forty-second cousins are no more, I shall alter tho will or mako a now one.'" 'Auil leave all to the girl I asked, in a bitter tone.
Ho laughed mockingly and then remarked 'You aro like all the rest you think I nm utterly heartless. No, I"shall not leave all to Ora Manheim. When I make a new will it will be to her disadvantage when compared with the new one in existence. oil know how Dowling and his two amiable cousins pastered me (and each dtlicr, also, for that matter,) about their expectations and when they becamo impressed with the idea that Ora would 1)0 a joint-heir they began to speak ill about her and myself in connection, as I have told you. Now, that two have died leaving widows and orphans behind, I shall do the fair thing by thoso helpless ones. I shall divide my possessions equally. Ora shall have one-third and the widows the other two-thirds.'"
Footsteps now approach the door. One of Mr. Harmar's eccentric freaks was to leave a space of ten feet on either side of his library door uncarpeted his object in this was to prevent anyone from tip-toeing to the door unheralded. He evidently distrusted the whole of his household." "Hence, when he heard the footsteps, he ^mentioned me to be silent, and presently a light tap was heard at the door, lie unlocked it, and Mrs. WalliB appeared. Her face was pale and she seemed greatlv agitated." •"Oh, Mr. llarinar,"'said she "'the secret assassin is still at his work He has attempted Ora's life.'" "'The devil he has!'" exclaimed Mr. Harmar,' and t\ dark frown settled on his-brow. "Who is he? What is lie, and what is his object?" he asked. 'Oh, I don't know,' said she, in a distressed tone. 'Ora wishes to speak to yon. Sho will tell you.'" '•'Send her here at "once, then,'" rejoined be. "'Mr. Harmar,'" said* I, when Mrs. Wallis had gone," 'permitjme to conceal myself where I can see and bear the girl. I'll explain afterwards.'" "He pointed to his bookcase. I entered it, and bo locked me in. There was sufficient space for me to sit in a crouched position, my head touching the first shelf. The lower space contained old files of newspapers on which I seated myself and peered through the green curtain into the room. "Icoald see every object distinctly, myself unseen by thoee in the apartment. "Ora came in, flushed with excitement. She bad evidently been abroad, for she still wore her street dress, hat and all. "'Papa/said she, casting her eyes around (be apartment, 'my uf« has been attempted.' '"So Mrs. Wallis saying. Tell me all about it/ said be. "Once more she glanced around, then remarked:
Mrs. Waliis said von bad company.' *So 1 had when she entered,' he re
sponded, 'l»ut he left tbe room when I intimated that I wished to see yon alone.' "She seemed pleased at this, and then began her tale. "She was walking, she said, in the woods that skirted the grounds, when a sudden 'puff1startled her, and she quickly turned her head, scarcely knowing whence tbe Bound came. That instant something struck her bat sharply, and she put up her hand and found the assassin's poisoned barb sticking in her bat. But for the turning of her head, it would have struck her in the* face, she said. "She held in the palm of her band a barb very similar to those found in the temples of Dowling and Winters. '"Are you not afraid to touch the deadly thing?'asked Harmar. 'Oh, no,' replied she, confidently, 'it is perfectly harmless save when it enters the blood. "'How do you know this?" he asked, in atone of surprise. 'Why, you see, I held it in nay hand ever since I drew it from my hat.' 'Still it may have done you a deadly injury, but its effects are not yet apparent,' remarked Mr. Harmar. "'Oh, nonsense, papa,'she said, with a smile, 'you are very timid, I think. How can the mere handlsng of it harm anyone?' "She laid tbe barb on the table, and then took off her hat to show him where it had lodged. He examined the perforation very closely, then looked as closely at the deadly missile, after which be again examined tbe tiny hole made in the hat. "An incomprehensiveexpression rested on bis countenance as .he laid the hat on the table beside the instrument of death, while his face was turned toward the bookcase, arid I noticed the singular expression of his features, but could not interpret it. "I also detected a singular expression on the girl's face when his back was turned, and strange thoughts took possession of me. '"Did you see anyone after this occurred?" asked he. 'I saw a man dart behind some bushes,' replied she, 'but I could not say it was he who blew this instrument at me.' 'Could you tell who it was?' asked he. 'Not positively,' said she, in a hesitating manner, 'but I thought his person seemed to resemble that of James Baer.' "'It was not him, however,' observed he, 'of that I am assured.' 'And why, pray?' asked she, rather impertinently, it seemed to me. 'dimply because he is—not capable of such a thing,'replied he. "I was glad he did not tell' her Baer was no more. Possibly h£ had a secret reason for withboldiijg the knowledge from her, for he checked himself just as he was on the point of pronouncing the word 'dead.' 'Not capable of such a thing,' cried she, in scornful accents, while ner eyes blazed with wrath. 'You appear to grow strangely lenient toward your reviler, and mine likewise.' "'Ora, I know that ho has not done this. Can you not take my word for it?' 'No, not when I am positivo that it was James Baer who attempted to assassinate me as he did his two cousins,'cried she. 'Positive! how?' asked he, in a bewildered tone. 'I recognized him and called bim by name,' said she, 'and when he saw that further disguise was useless, be turned and cried: "I failed this time, Ora Manheim, but will not the next time we meet," and then he hastened out of sight. Now, where is your innocent saint?'she cried, derisively." 'Where you will be ere long, wretched murderess!" cried Mr. Harmar, as he regarded the little fiend with loathing. •James Baer died last night from a wound he received in an affray at Hungary Station, several days ago, and your base falsehood, together with this deadly missilo found in your possession, pronounces you the murderer of my two cousins.' 'You shall not live to denounce me!' cried she, as she sprang to snatch the poisoned barb.
But he was now fully aroused and on his guard. He unceremoniously seized her ny the throat with one hand, while she kicked and scratched him viciously. Ho dragged her to tho bookcase and unlocked it, when I came forth, to hw intense surprise and dismay. 'You've seen and heard all, Mr. Ryan?' "'I have.' 'You little cat!'said he, as he handed her t« me, 'this is a detective who has been looking for tho secret assassin aud has now found her.' "The girl saw that she wts caught in a trap, and became sullen after her impotent rage. I secured her wrists and toek her away to prison. "It appears that the clerk in the lawyer's office, by means of false keys, managed to obtain the will from the safe and communicate its contents to the girl on the promise that she would marry him when she came in possession of her inheritance. "Whether he was implicated in the murder of the two men, is of course not known for he fled when he'learned that she was in prison, evidently fearing that she would reveal all. "A letter he subsequently sent to his employer revealed all that was ever known in reference to the dark deed, for the girl was found dead in her cell sever al da3's after her incarceration, with oue of the poisoned barbs planted in her bosom. How she managed to conceal it about her person was, perhaps, known to her only. She confessed nothing, and died with the recklessness of despair.

Ague Gure
Is a purely vegetable hitter and powerful tonic, and is warranted a speedy ami ttain cure for Fever and Ague, and Fever, Intermittent or C..ill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb As»e. Periodical or Bilious Fever, and all malarial disorders. In miasmatic districts, the rapid pulse, coated tongwo, thirst, lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in the hack and loins, and coldness of tho spine and extremities, are only premonitions of severer symptoms wtych terminate in the ague paroxysm, succeeded by high fever and profuse*perspiration.
It is a startling fact, that quinine, arsenic, and other poisonous minerals form the basis of most of tho Fever and Aguo Preparations," "Specifics," "Syrups," and "Tonics," in the market. The preparations rqpde from theso mineral poisons,, although they are palatable, and may break the chill, do not cure, but leave the malarial and their own drug poisftn in. tho system, producing quinism, dizziness^ ringing in the ears, headache, vertigo, and. other disorders more formidable than tho disease they were intended to cure. Arm's ACI'F. CI RK thoroughly eradicates these noxious poisons from the system, and always cures the severest cases. It contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing that could injure the most delicate patient and its crowning excellence, alovo its certainty to cure, is that it leaves the system as free from disease as before tho attack.
For Liver Complaints, AYF.K'S Anuit CUKE, by direct action on the
liver
biliary apparatus, drives out the
and
poisons,
which produce theso complaints, and stimulates tho system to a vigorous, healthy condition.
Wo warrant it when taken according to directions.
