"Oh , I do hope you haven't spoilt your

of great anxiety , "I should be positively
1 distressed to think of it ! They had
such sweetly pointed toes , and such
charming heels ! Why , bless me if the
man hasn't taken off and left me alone
to my glory ! Didn't I touch his fine old
English blood , though ? " and Helen rode
leisurely toward the Rock , singing
Enatebes of merry songs , and snipping
i off the young buds front the bushes as
j she passed.
As for Guy St. Cyril , he went home
in a rage. He had never laved before ,
1 and now to be treated in this way by
a mere girl was a little too much. He
determined to leave the Rock the very
next day , and forget that Helen Fulton
held ever existed. He hated her , he said.

stoic up to him.
"Are you expecting your ship to come

archly.
. "I am expecting nothing , Miss Ful-
ton. "
"Oh , indeed ! What a nice , reasonable -
able young man. You quite remind me
of my grandfather. "
"I presume it is of little consequence
of whom I remind you. Miss Fulton ,

put her hand on his arm and inoked
into his face.
"Mr. St. Cyril , I am sorry I am im-

,
please not to go away ? "
He was conq iered at once , his face
' softened , he caught her hand to his lips ,
but she slipped it away , and darted off
to the house.
CHAPTER YVI.
L1
GNES WENT
down to the jail
frequently to visit
Lynde Graham. Her
brother knew it ,
and offered no ob-
jections. The poor
girl bore such evident -
dent marks of sorrow -
row that he could
not find it in his
heart to say any-
thing that would make her more
; wretched. And she seemed to derive
some little comfort from these visits ,
, sad as they were. She and Lynde understood -
derstood each other now. No word of
love had ever been spoken between
them , but she knew that he loved her.
One day Helen insisted on accompanying -
panying her to the prison. Agnes was
hardly willing , but Helen would not be
denied , and the two girls went in to-
gether.
,
After a little desultory conversation
between Lynde and Agnes , Helen , who
bad been busily engaged in looking
about the cell , came and stood before
Dr. Graham.
"Well , " she said deliberately , "did
sou murder Marina Trenholme ? "
"No , I did not , " he replied.
"Then who did ? "
lie colored scarlet and winced more
confusion than Agnes had ever before
seen him do.
"How should I know ? "
"Because I think you do , " answered
Helen , promptly. "I've always thought
you knew who did the deed , but I've
never thought you did it yourself , "
"Thank you for your good opinion. "
"And that means you won't tell me. "
"There is nothing to tell. "
"Ah ! it is breaking one of the ten
commandments to lie , Mr. Lynde Gra-
ham.
"I try to be resigned , Miss Fulton , " he
said , gravely , "if it is God's will that I
ishafl die- "
"But it was never God's will that an
innocent man should be hung while a
' ; the real criminal goes at large ! " she answered -
swered , excitedly ; "and to think you
mtgbt save yourself if you would' "
w
Sri4" ; ; a
"Let us drop the subject , if you
please. "
"And what if I don't please ? It's no
use to deny that you know who did this
murder ! I can read it in your eyes. If
you did not see the deed committed ,
you are morally certain whose hands
are stained with blood ! But if you prefer -
fer to die rather than speak out , we
must let you have your own way ; only
I do hope you'll not feel too much disappointment -
appointment if before the twenty-fifth
of June , the day your reprieve expires ,
the real murderer should be discovered -
ered ! "
He started up , pale and distraught ,
and laid a nervous hand on her arm.
"Miss Fulton ! " he exclaimed , 'what
do ypu know ? What- "
"I know nothing , " she said , button-
lug her gloves coolly. "I'm going sway
now. This cell would give me the
rheumatism in an hour more. I wish
you good-by , Dr. Graham. Come Aggie ,
dear. "
Agnes had been greatly pained by the
turn Helen had given to the conversation -
tion , but she knew the girl's warm heart
too well to think for a moment that she
had designed to be unfeeling.
That evening after they , had gone to
the little parlor they had in common ,
and Agnes had seated herself , looking
so pale , and worn. and distressed ,
Helen sat"dawn on a low stool at her
feet and folded her arms over her lap.
I "Agnes , dear , " she said , coaxingly , "if
I were you I wouldn't fret about that
Lynde Graham. "
Agnes burst into tears.
" 0 Helen ! Only two little weeks
more , and he is to die ! When I think
of it , it seems as if I shall go mad ! "
Helen rose and stood behind her
chair , holding the wet face to her
bosom , and smoothing tenderly the soft
hair.
"I beg to differ from you , Agnes , on
that point. I x10 not think Dr. Graham
will die on the 25th of June unless lie
eats cucumbers and catches the
cholera. "
" 0 Helen , Helen ! how can you joke
so dreadfully' ? Only think if you were
just in my' place ! "
"I would not like it. I've no taste
for melancholy. I don't like to cry. It
makes my nose red , and swells my eye-
lids. "
A few days afterward Helen was out
in the garden looking at the syringas ,
which were just bursting into flower.
She stood a little in the shadow , and
Imogene Trenholme passing hurriedly
down the path did not perceive her.
Something in the expression of Mrs.
Trenholme's face struck the girl , and
she followed cautiously along , in the
shade of the shrubbery. At the extremity -
tremity of the garden there was a great
oak , and in it a hollow scooped out by
the hand of decay. Imogene looked
searchingly' around her , thel drawing
from her bosom a folded paper , she
dropped it into the hollow , and hastily
retraced her steps.
"Now , young lady , " said Helen to herself -
self , "it's your ditty to see to this post-
office that is established without the
sanction of your Uncle Samuel. And
going to the tree she withdrew the
paper. It was not sealed and was merely -
ly a slip bearing these words : 1
"In the Haunted Chamber , at Eleven
To-night. "
"So ho' " mused lichen. "It's an appointment -
pointment with the ghost , by all that's
good and bad ! Well , I never ! If it was
a gentleman ghost I should suspect Mrs.
Imogene of Infidelity. But there's something -
thing behind this , Helen Fulton , and
it's your duty to watch till you see it.
You're kept here at this house for
Heaven only knows what , but you'd
better not be caught napping. And you
must not go into the house until you
see who takes this precious bit of paper ,
will you : "
a
She refolded the paper and returned
it to the hollow. Then wrapping her
shawl around her , she crouched down
behind some tall lilac bushes and wait-
s
ed. Twilight had already fallen , and
it was soon quite dark. A stealthy footstep - I
step crunched the gravel. Helen peeped
through the leaves , and saw a man remove -
move the paper , and conceal it in his
bosom. She caught her breath quickly.g
"It is just .as I thought ! " she said.
"The man with two fingers missing
from the right hand. I think , to speak
c
slang , which , as nobody is hearing me ,
will be perfectly proper , I think I smell s
a
a mice. At eleven o'clock to-night. I
t
shall be there ; "
And gathering a handful of blossoms
to excuse her absence Heen hurried e
t
into the house.
C
CHAPTER XVII.
RECISELY AT 10
o'clock Helen Fulti
ton stood at the "
door of the haunted I e
chamber. The door r
was locked , but the
key , was on the out-
side. The girl entered - h
tered , shut the door , 1
without locking it , p
and put the key in o
her pocket. Her
pretty face wore a look of care that did w
riot alone there. She was a shade paler w
than usual , and the stern lines about her b
mouth looked as if she had made up her t
mind to do a desperate thing. She put o
small writing-desk on a shelf in the ti
closet , and after satisfying herself that
there was no one in the room , she took g
from her dress the pistol with which p !
a
Mr. Trenholme had intended to shoot
Quito , and examined it carefully. Then
she put out the dandle she had brought
with her , and concealed herself behind
the bed-curtains. .
How long the time seemed until the
clock in the hall chimed eleven ! Everything -
thing was still. The familyhad rctired
early , out of courtesy to a gentleman
who was journeying to the East-a
friend of Ralph-and who was fatigued
with traveling , By-and-by Helen heard
the handle of the door turn. Then a
light burst through the darkness , and
peering through the folds of the curtain -
tain , the adventurous girl saw that the
intruder was Imogene Trenholme. She
was very pale , and there were great
dark circles around her eyes-those
fearfully brilliant eyes , that glittered
with an almost supernatural lustre.
She stood in an expectant attitude-
her eyes fixed on the east window. And
directly there was a rustling among the
vine leaves outside , the window was
softly raised , and a man entered.
"You are punctual , he said , in a low ,
hoarse voice. "I am glad to find you
, ,
so.
"Yes , I am punctual , but I have only
three hundred dollars. "
"Only three hundred ! I told you I
must have five hundred ! "
"I know 'it , but this was the best I
could do ! "
"But I cannot do with less than five '
hundred ! " he said , fiercely. "You'll
have to do a little different , madam , or
you'll get shown up in a way you won't
like ! "
"Have a little mercy ! " she said , pite-
ously. Heaven knows I have resorted
to every means in my power to keep
you supplied. I have not bought , a new
thing for more than a year ! "
"So much the better ! Women do not
need the gimcracks with which they
have a fancy for adorning themselves.
Two hundred lacking ! By heaven ! I've
a great mind to peach and have done
with it ! "
"Don't talk so ! " she cried , seizing his
1
arm. "You frighten me ! I have suffered -
fered fearfully ! My punishment is
greater than I can bear ! There arcl
times when it seems as if I must tell ,
the whole , or go mad ! "

FULMINATE OF MERCURY.
The I'owcrfnl Explosive Used In the
Bomb Made by the Anarchists.
Fulminate of mercury , which is used
by European anarchisits in the manufacture -
facture of their bombs , is one of the
most treacherous and powerful explosives -
sives known to science , says the New
York World. Heretofore it has been
employed in percussion caps and as a
detonator for nitro-glycerin prepara-
tions. It explodes when subjected to a
slight shock or to heat and not a few ex-1
pelt chemisits since its English inventor -
tor , Howard , have been seriously injured -
jured or killed while preparing or experimenting -
perimenting with it.
In France some years ago the celebrated -
brated chemist , Barruel , was manipulating -
lating this dangerous product in a
heavy agate mortar when his attention -
tion was suddenly distracted and he let
the pestle down with a little less care
than ordinary. The explosion which
followed literally blew the mortar to
dust , and it tore Barruel's hand from
his wrist. Another distinguished
chemist , Belot , was blinded and had
both hands torn off while experimenting -
ing with fulminate of mercury. Justin -
tin Leroy , a French expert in the manufacture -
facture of explosives was one day en ;
gaged in experimenting with this com-
poltnd in a damp state , in which condition -
tion it was supposed to be harmless.
It exploded with such force , however ,
that nothing of Mr. Leroy that was
ecoguizable could afterward be found.
An English chemist named Hennell ,
while manufacturing a shell for military -
tary use , into the composition of which
fulminate of mercury entered , was also
blown literally to atoms , and the fragments -
ments of the building where he was
conducting his experiments were scattered -
tered for hundreds of feet in every
direction.
Girls Flnetl for a Kiss.
A New York city dispatch says that ,
one night not long ago Cosias Drescler
was out late. He decided to go home
wthout an escort. He is good looking
and well dressed , but so modest in his
deportment that he thought if he
,
walked quickly he would be safe from
molestation. At Allen and Rivington 1
treets stood four pretty girls. Wrapping - (
ping his coat around him he tried to I
furry past without being noticed. i
"Ah , there ! " said one of the girls. t
Drescler screamed and ran. The girls' ' i
ave chase and surrounded him. i
"Ain't he pretty ? " said one. 1
Then two of them deliberately kissed a
him. He struggled and fought , but
ould not escape , and his silk hat was t
mashed. The unfortunate man yelled I i
nd a heartless police officer arrested o
he four beauties. f
"They're what's called the new worni

he next morning. "They stand on the
orner and insult respectable men.

We've had many complaints from

"What do you want me to do ? " asked 1
e magistrate , addressing the plaintiff. r
Do you wish me to hold these prison-

Everyone roared with laughter.
"No , " said Drescler , "what I'm after o

OUR SHEEP DRIVEN TO DEMO-

American Fanners Lost the Sa1es of
84,000,000 Pounds of Wool Last Year
-Entire Clips of California and Tozal
Supplanted.

1
The excess of raw wool imported in
1895 over the average importations of
the years 1891 , 1892 , 1893 , and 1894 was
over 115,000,000.
The increase in the importations of
"manufactures of wool" in the first
full year of the present law over the
average of the years 1891 , 1892 , 1893 and
1894 is nearly $28,000,000 , equivalent
to nearly 84,000,000 pounds of raw unwashed -
washed wool used in the construction
of these goods. That is to say , the
wool grower has lost the sale to American -
ican manufacturers of 84,000,000 pounds
of wool heretofore sold to them by
reason of the loss to the home manufacturer -
facturer of about $25,000,000 worth of
woolen goods , requiring in their production -
duction 84,000,000 pounds of raw wool ,
previously manufactured here , but now
manufactured in Europe and exported
to America , a quantity greater than the
entire annual unwashed clip of the
states of California , Texas , Montana
and Oregon.
The feature , however , that is most
striking and the one causing the most
regret is the increase in the importations -
tions of shoddy , waste , rags , etc. The
increase in the importation of these
wool adulterants in the year 1S95 over
the average of the four years of 1891 ,
1892 , 1893 and 1894 ( all but four months
of which were under the McKinley :
law ) was over 19,000,000 pounds. This
was almost as clean as scoured wool ,
and required in its production over
58,000,000 pounds of unwashed fleeces ,
equal to the annual wool crops of Pennsylvania -
sylvania , Ohio , New- York and Michigan -
gan or the western wool growing states
of Utah , California and Texas.
The total increase of foreign raw
wool imported in the raw state , in the
shape of cloth , or in the form of waste ,
rags , etc. , amounts to over 70,000,000
pounds , a quantity greater than the
entire American wool clip shorn in the

result of the first full calendar year of
the present law. What has been
gained ? A paltry increase of $10,000 in
the exports of woolens while our home
mills have lost business represented
by an increase of $47,000,000 in imports
of all sorts of "manufactures of wool. "

indigestible , and soul-stirring Jonah at
