A N excep A bcry r exceptionally daring rob- prominent bank en tered hugo sum tnken 1" were tho headlines In a Paris paper. In following up this extraordinary case tho mystery deepened, unheard of crimes were unenrthed nnd thrilling nltuntlons occurred which bafllcd even the cclcbrntcd detective, Lecoq. It ap peared thnt upon opening the safe one morning, the cashier startled the clerks ly crying out: "I hnvo been robbed 1" They gathered about, but strangely enough upon Inspection, tho snfo showed only n scratch, but no sign of having been broken open, nl tliough tho 350,000 francs were miss ing thnt the cashier said lie had placed lliero tho day before, In order to pay Count Louis dc Clnmcrnn, n friend who hnd been left n legacy by his brother, Gaston. M. Fnuvel, tho presi dent of tho bank, and M. Prosper Ber tomy, tho cashier, were the only per sons who possessed keys to the door and woro credited with the knowledge of n word which mnde up the combina tion. Although their relations hnd been like those of father and son, each now accused tho other of taking the I police, nnd search was mado 'of the apartment over the bank, occupied by tho president, his wife, nnd beautiful nleco, Madeleine, whoso engagement to tho cashier had been mysteriously broken off It was suspected she pre ferred Mine. Valentino Fnuvel's hand some nephew, Itnoul Lagors. The president's record was good, but sus picion wns directed toward the cashier, as ho had been living extravagantly. Ills arrest followed, although he pro tested his Innocence. During the In spection of tho bank and tho appre hending of the cashier, ho wns seen to scrlbblo a lino hurriedly and throw It to tho clork. Tho latter was shad owed to tho cashier's apartment nnd tho noto procured. It was addressed to Mmo. Gypsy, Informing her of his arrest and advising her to hide. Dar ing the oxnmlnntlon at court, Prosper remembered that he had been indis creet tho previous night in saying to Gypsy, when perhaps ho might have been overheard by the count and Itnoul, thnt he hnd renson for con stantly thinking of her nt his work, when she accused him of not thinking of her nny longer. Tho word Gypsy opened tho safo. For lack of sufllclent evidence Prosper wua released nnd the enso filed In No. 113. On Prosper'a return to his apart ment, Gypsy had gone, but n noto ad dressed In small printed letters wns delivered to him containing monoy. Tho clover Lecoq, now living with Prosper, under tho disguise of an old friend of his father's, revealed that the printed letters had been cut from u prayer book. Surely there was a woman In tho easel Lnter n torn prayer book wns discovered hidden In Mndelolno's room. Did sho love Pros per and think him Innocent and In need of money? Yet soon nftcr thnt, to tho surprlso of everyone, her engagement was announced to the old Count do Clnmumn. Tho rea son for this was that Madeleine, by chance, overheard a conversa tion between tho count nnd her aunt. Tho old count threatened to tell of tho family skeleton If sho did not consent to tho marriage. Madeleine appeared nnd snld sho would marry hlin to keep tho secret nnd tho honor of tho family name. On lenrnlng of Madeleine's engagement, Prosper, who really hnd nlwuys loved her, becumo very angry, nnd thinking there must bo a sinister motlvo for Mmo. Fnuvel's ullowlng It, wrote- an anonymous letter to M, Fnuvel, telling him to watch his wife. Lecoq noticed that tho good-looking Itnoul still continued his frequent vis its to the house. Did It mean thnt ho was perhaps .not tho nephew, but tho lover of Mmo. Fnuvel? Disguised, tlio great detoctlvo attended u masquerade ball uud made Insinuating remarks to Mmo. Fnuvul concerning Itanul which I caused her to faint, and when he soko of niothj mutters, Count Louis tunica pale. Returning homo that nlrM the detective wns followed by two men and stabbed, but, fortnnntely, not killed. Lecoq, thinking ho recognized the count nnd Itnoul, decided thnt they realized thnt tho pollco suspected them of robbing tho bank, and also thnt there must bo nn even greater mystery to unravel that hnd caused them to become would-bo assassins. Itrcords wero looked up and an amaz ing story came to light Lecoq discovered that years ago Mmc. Fnuvel, then Valentino do Vcr bcrlc, hnd been engaged to the count's brother, Gaston. In defending her namo nt a country Inn, Gaston had killed a man and fled to America, al though he was thought to have been drowned whllo escaping. A son wn9 born to Valentino and given away by her mother. Later she had married Fnuvel, who was told nothing. Tho story wns never unearthed un til Count Louis had squandered the family money nnd by mere chance hnd heard of the child's existence from nn old nurse. IIo made Inquiries. Not long nfter this, the count Introduced a young man to Mine. Fnuvel as her son, to serve his own ends and to extrnct hush-money. This young man wns cnlled her nephew nnd proved to be Itaoul Lngors. Tlio situation became even more complicated. Gaston returned from America Immensely rich, not knowing of the existence of his son, but deter mined to seo his old love Valentine onco more. Louis, however, realized that for his own ends, Gaston and Mme. Fnuvel must never meet, no joined Gaston In the south of France nnd got Into his good graces. Gaston mado a will, leaving everything to Louis; then poor Gaston becamo mysteriously 111 nnd died. Louis re turned to Paris rich. Mndelelno seemed to wish to delay her mnrrlagc. The count fenred sho still loved Prosper, so he promised Rnoul a largo sum If ne would in some way ruin tho cashier's reputation, thinking thus to" hasten his own mnr rlagc, ns he really wns In love with Madeleine. The moment came when Itnoul overheard Prosper telling Gypsy he constantly thought of hei nt tho bank. He then went to his mother and snld ho would shoot himself If ho did not have a large sum of money thnt very night to pay n gambling debt. She got for him tho key to the safo. Tho poor lady had nlrcndy given him nil her money nnd Jewels nnd hnd nothing left to bestow. At the Inst moment sho tried to stop him, hence the scratch that was discovered later. When sho Inquired how ho knew the word thnt mado up tho combination, Itnoul said that Prosper had given It to him and they were to divide the money between themselves.
