" you are more original than any of the characters in your dramas. Here you have a new play produced last night, and ynu don't open a single paper to see what is said ahnut it." '" Why should I spoil the pleasure this book gives me?" "And. of course, you know nothing about the murder the murder in the the ater. In the box next to the one you sat in yourself?" This began to look interesting. 1 threw down the novel and picked up a nt wspaper. Vis it was true enough. Accounts of the tragedy and of my new mi lndramu were In twin columns, and, Judging by the 'size of the headlines, the i dit' r sn rani to consider the crime the more important event of the two. I pointed out ttu unfair lit ss of this, Inasmuch us there were two murders in my play, but Kinson pulled me up and told me not to be brutal. " It may ruin the run of the piece," he slid, sublimely Ignorant of his own cal lousness. Hut Finson was the acting man ager. " Not at all," I rejoined; " it is the best advertisement possible. I shouldn't be sirpiised If you arranged it all." " lie careful what you are saying old chap " he remarked, solemnly " This is too sirious a matter to Joke about. It's a mystery, as well as a murder." And a dark mystery Indeed it was. It a p and that the murdered man's body hi I been discovered by the watchman in making his rounds after every one had left the house. He was' huddled up on the floor as If he had fallen from his chair. Two rid marks on his throat betrayed the Iron grip of the assassin, who. to complete his Work, had plunged u long bladed knife it.to his back, where it remained embedded to the hill. He was in livening clothes mid there was nothing in his pockets to Indicate his identity. The man had paid for tin Jmx the previous day' and had come to the performance alone. He went out ibfter the third uct'aud an usher saw him return to his neat, still unaccompanied. No noise was heaid in the box; no one else was observed to enter; no su.' pii ious person was seen to leave the theater. I obtained some of these particulars from an early edition of an evening paper. After digi sting the various accounts, I asked Kinson what he Intended to do. ' What will I do?" he echoed. " What can I do? Nothing." " Well, I'm going to do something." I said. "Finson, there's u finer, more thrilling plot behind all this than ever I Invented. I've been concocting pool plots vide the critics all my life, and now I'm going to unravel n great plot ready made." " I hope you'll be successful. It's a terrible mystery to hang over a thcaUr. It'll haunt me till it's solved." As lie picked up lis hat to go. then was u knock at the door, and my servant ushered In two strangers hur riedly and unceremoniously, due was Pi tectlve Jennerb. whom I knew well. " You'll excuse me, Mr. Middleton." he said, " but I've a painful duty to perform. Sorry to do it In your rooms, sir." night, but at the lime he could not lei and he sent hack wo'd that It was Imp. leave the stage. Finson was then retnutidi d and taken back to Jail, and the court burst into a babel of conversation. "It's a pity," said l.lnilley. one of tne nctors at the theater, who had been silting nt my sidi . " Finson s per fectly Innocent. Tin mire " "Of course he is." I n plied, "but how to prove It -that's the question ." " The best way would be to catch the teal culprit. Hut tin y won't do that; he was evidently to i clever." Outside the court I Jumped Into a cab and drove to the theater. The malinger was in his ofllcc in n fretful mood. "I don't know what to think." he said "I've known Finson for years and I ever knew him lav an unkind linger on a living thing. And yet -and yet ' "Come with me," I interrupted. 1 want to play the detective." We made our way to the lobby and mounted the stair case to the dress cli'le. The house looki d ghostly ill its overalls of holland. and a solitary shall of daylight did not brighten the seem-. In tlie passage leading to the boxes 1 switched on the el ', trie light. Then we went into the box where the inuid'T was committed I examined it closely, but what I saw was in no respect Illuminating as to the authorship of I lie crime. " Look hi re." 1 remarked when we got out into the cor ridor again. " It is perfectly certain that the murderer could not have csciip-d ill the direction of the audience. After commuting a crime of this son a man must bear some traces of excitement, and if he lame this way lie would have confronted all these rows of people. No," I added. " tills is the w i.v lie must have come and gone." I pointed past the stage box along the passage, which apparently ended in a blank wall. The manager laughed a short laugh, which .topped with a jerk, lie rushed for W'd excitedly. I!y heaven." he tried. "You've made a bigger dis covery than you think. There is a door here that com municate with the stage. It has not I n used since I hud ilic house redecorated. It was nn'nted over to bl with the scheme of coloring. Hut, see, here are the out lines. Tills door has been opened, and recently. Look!" " A clew at last." I observe I ipilctly " A clew, yes," he said. " but one that drives another nail in the cotlin of Finson. He was b"hind the seem s that night, ynu know. Tills Is damning evidence against him." "Not at all." I reioiiied. "This Issuing to aciiilt him and damn some one else." " What do you mean?" " Sorry, but 1 shall have to ask you to wait and see." Impressed with the importance of the discovery of the door, and with a th.vu-y gradually taking shape In my mind, I hastened to visit Kinson in his cell. He welcomed me enthusiastically. 'You believe me innocent, Middleton, don't you?" he asked pathetically. I grasped his hand. ' I do, und I'm going to prove it." " How '.'

Later he made a statement to the effect that he had known a Michael Kelly in Colorado, but that he did not know he was in the city, nor had he written him u letter." Counsel for the defense said that he had a complete answer to the charge, but at this stage he would merely say that the handwriting of the " ineiiiiiina' lug " letter did not hear tile faintest resemblance to that of the prisoner. Moreover, owing to the Illness of the stage manager on the night of the crime, the accused had had to perform his duties and this necessitated his being behind the scenes the whole of the evening after the curtain l ad risen.
