What have you discovered?"
iho detective looked at him for a
lew seconds in silence; then he said,
with slow, deliberate emphasis:
,,j9 there any one else you can think
#< besides Sir Keith himself, who
bid reason to desire the death of
frlpir Verschoyle?" ,
• >'o one in the world. Except
tsdy llenham; and she of course is"
••Ah. yes. except Lady Denham"—
put in the detective speaking in the
wrae significant kind of way and tap
ping the back of one hand with the
pngei-; of the other—"except Lady
.Denham!”
• <iood heavens! what are you driv
ing at?” exclaimed Kennard angrily.
-Do you mean to imply that Lady
Denham committed the murder? Pooh!
vou are raving.’’
• I am not raving; sir. answered
Scott in respectful, but dogged tones,
which somehow carried conviction
with them. ••'1'hat is what I mean.
The Frenchwoman’s statement was en
tirely false, She made it to screen
her mistress. I had my suspicions
from the first only 1- hadn't enough
to £o upon. These suspicions are now
confirmed unquestionably.”
Kennard sat aghast This solution
of the problem had simply never oc
curred to him. He put it away from
him now like some unclean thing.
Ami yet with inconceivable rapidity,
there Hashed across his unwilling
mind numberless circumstances and
Incidents which, alas! seemed to
place themselves together with ap
palling accuracy and ease.
"Well?” he said curtly, after a
somewhat lengthy pause.
The detective took out It's note
book and read as follows:
••On the evening of Sunday, the
23d of June—the night before the
murder—a lady who gave ho name
called upon Mr. Verschoyle at the
private hotel in Dover street where
he was staying"
"Why was this not mentioned at
the inquest?" put in Kennard sharply.
"Because” returned Koott •■tiie

But I could find no trace of him .until
to-day. when I went to said -address,
found he had returned, and got all I

g '—.ape nertno ne;
gontil011!'1 8!lt silent for a time, his
cZ;l0o^ng face-very pale, his
* 1 beating, nervously on the i
table. Then he said in quick, irrita
ble tones:
“But if Lady Denham, oommitted
the murder, which I cannot believe,
why Should she have screamed as she
did, and brought a whole crowd of
people round her? And besides."
he continued, with a sudden thought,
•the doctors said life hrd been ox
tlnct for half an hour when the bodv
was discovered. Why did she wait
all that time and then scream? The
thing is preposterous."
As he spoke he flung himself
back in his chair, nnd knitted his
brows in a heavy perplexed frown.
"My theory is this." suid the do
tectiye. quietly: •After she had
committed the crime she fainted
and when she came to herself agusn.
and found herself alone with the
dead body of her husband—then she
screamed"—
••And how do you account for
none of her guests finding her while
she was in this hypothetical swoonP”
put in Kennard sarcastically.
•The fernery door. I understand
was locked on the inside ” was the
answer. -On that night neither it
nor the library were thrown open to
Lady Denham’s guests I think that
when Lady L'eaham recovered from
her faint (and just before or after
she screamed she unlocked the door,
and tried to get away from the dead
body; but fear, or horror, or both,
prevented her. In her confusion and.
terror she turned to the door leading
to the conservatory, instead of that
leading into the library."
••And how did she conceal the
weapon?"
••Ah. that is just the point that
puzzles me—I don’t know. . One
thing has occurred to me. How does
Lady Denham wear her hair? ’
••Wear her hair? I don't know.
What has that to do with it?” said
Kennard, testily-,
•Have you ever seen her wear a
dagger in her hair?” asked Sco*A
significantly.
Kennari started.
••I can’t tell you. I’ve no idea.
Do you mean? Do you think-.? ’
••£ mean that the doctors said the
wound had evidently been inflicted by
some three-cornered instrument Now
I remember once being on a job in
some foreign town where a woman
murdered another woman with an
ornamental dagger she wore in
her hair. Why- not in this
ease? Voraehoyle telling her to
put it back, and telling her not
to disarrange her coiffure, seems to
point to the possibility.”
■•Good heavens!” exclaimed Ken
nard, -rising and walking -excitedly
about tbe room.
•■Does Mr. Cormgham know what
you have just told me?" be said, after
a minute’s silence. "Does he know
of this man Barnes’ statement, 1
mean?”
•-No sir. Me is in Yorkshire. He
said 1 was to bring any information I
obtained to you. I have mentioned it
to no one; .and I told Barnes he had
•better ho d bis tongue in the mean
time. in case he got into trouble. It's
the-only argument likely tojiavq any
•effect on ;a tool like him. As for the
Frenchwoman, we must .get hold of
.her."
After a few more questions. Ken
uiard bade the man a mechanical
• Good-night." and enjoined him to
.take :no further steps until he could
see -him-on the -following day—-except
-in tracing Klise Devorne.
-if this be iproved.” Kenuard said
to himself as-he sat thinking deeply,
far into the Bmall hours—"If thii be
pitoved. it will break Denham’s heart.
Poor old-chap Poor .old-chap! It’s au
•awful price to pay for his release.
There is some .horrible mistake some
where; for I could swear to that poor
child’s innocence almost as I could to

* CHAPTER IX.
.A Terrible Alternative.
iBy 'the next day Simon Scott rfound
itihat, in spite of his shrewd injunction
.to Barnes matters ihad precipitated
,themselves.a good deal, for the lat
ter. in a fever of excitement at hold
ing such important evidence in such
.an important <case; had reported all
he had seen and heard .to .the author
ities at Scotland Yard.
The .consequence of his communica
tion .was that a warrant .was immedi
&.ely issued for Lady Denham's ap
prehension.
Leonard, thongh in .a manner .pre
pared for .this, felt horribly shocked
unA distressed when he realized that
his friend's wife was actually charged
with such .a hideous crime—revolting
and awful enough in a .man. .but
doubly so in a woman. He .could not
Daring himself to ibeiieve in her guilt,
nor couid hia wife who had hurst into
(passionate indignant tears when Ken
nar.d told her'Scott's news. A warm
friendship had sprung up between the
two women some years age end Gladys
Leonard was the loyallest of friends.
Nevertheless, aot oven to her had
Olive Denham given any him, «F her
first marriage; indeed, she was singu
larly reticent regarding her life prev
ious to her marriage with Sir Leith.
And Gladys though frank to a fault
herself, bad never dreamed of ques
tioning her.
it was late in the afternoon on the
rday following Scott's visit to Ken
paird. Gladys Leonard and Lady Den
Ram were alone in the former's little
morning-room, which had been given
up to Olive since she was able to leave
her bedroom. She (Olive) fas lying
back- wearily in a chair near the win
dow. Bar bands clasped in her lap.,
her beautiful face utterly expression
less. her eyed gazing unseeingly across
the dusty square. Gladys was walk
ing slowly up and down the room; but
she started and became very pale as
the door opened av'd her husband en
tered. A glance at his face told bar
what hod happened.
•Leave ua dear." he whispered to
her. in agitated tones a* she crossed
the room to meet him. "I—l roust
speak to her. Scott and another de
tective are down-stairs. ” _
"Ob. Haroourt" said Gladys fat at*
ly. 'bit—is it what you feared?"
"Yo&" ho answered. *<id dear.”
When slid hud left the room, Ken
nard advanced towards Oliva Sha ,
. had not seemed to be aware of his en
trance; but she turned toward him '
now, and tried to sroilo. Her face
was so whlta so still, so sweet! It
was not the face of u murderess, he
thought—forgetting how the soul may
contradict the body sometimes.
He took a chair near hers, and
gently, very gently, broke his terrible
tidings. Then her face changed—sud
denly. awfully.
••You must not- think.” he added
hurriedly, looking away from her,
wide, terror-stricken eyes, • -that I.
for one moment suspect you—the
thing is impossible.”
• I)o you not?" she said. "Ah! that
is good of you." She spoke in u slow,
deliberate kind of way; her hands
were claspod lightly on her breast
her breath oame in quick little gasps
a rapidly-changing eombinatlon of
expressions flitted across her white,
rigid face.
During the next two minutes there
was an utter silence; for Kennardwas
struggling with a troublesome lump
in his throat which made speech dif
ficult just then..
Suddenly Olive spoke.
■•You ure very good." she said
putting up one hand to her throat
with a convulsive uncertain move
ment and speaking in a low. hoarse
voice wh ch did not sound like her
own. "very good—and very—k nd.
But—it is of no—use.”
• You must not say that” saidKen
nard husk ly. os he took one of her
cold little hands in his.
She looked at him and withdrew
her hand. Something in her expres
sion struck him w.th an unpleasant
chill; her qnnatural composure gave
him a vague feeling of alarm.
•Dear Lady Denham." he said, with
deep concern, ••let mo assure you
again that—"
••Wat!” she interrupted him. and
a slow, terrible sm le that froze his
blood settled around her Ups. "Wait!
I—I do not deny the charge."
For a moment or two Kennard
maintained a petrified silence. Had
he beard aright? Then a sudden
thought struck him. and he said sooth
ingly:
••You are excited and overwrought.
You do not—”

FORTY MILES HIGH.
Auroras Have Reached That Height, It Is
, Claimed*
The scientists of the Royal Dan'sh
academy nave recently made public
the results of some interesting experi
ments, which were conducted for the
sole purpose of ascertaining the exact
or, at any rate, the approximate,
height of the aurora borealis. At
Godthaabt M. Adorn Paulsen, with two
theodolites situated only four miles
apart . ound that the height of d.ffer
ect auroral d'splays varied from one tQ
forty miles! Near Cape Farewell w.th
a base 1 ne o' three-fourths of a mile
in length, the best calculations ob
tainable placed different auroras at
from one to ten miles in height; at
Spitsbergen it was shown that they
range from a height of one-third to
eighteen miles. In this connection it
will not prove uninteresting to mention
some of the remarkable opinions en
tertained by the early experimenters
in this line. Flogel estimated the
height of the various aurorae observed
by him at from 90 to 310 miles above
the earth; Reimaon found that one
observed by him was at least 500
miles high, and Nordenskjold’s earlier
deductions gave such phenomena an
average height of 125 miles. Then
Leemstrome came forward with the
announcement that he had taken
notes and observations on an auroral
display that was not separated from
the earth by more than 1.000 feet;
while Hilderbrandson concurred to
the extent of declaring that many of
the displays were below the clouds.
This latest experimenter on the au
roral line infers that aurora; only ap
pear at a considerable height in tem
perate zones while in the auroral
zone proper the phenomenon is gen
erally produced in the lower atmos
phere.

not acquire title to a new piece of land
till the individual Maori title is extin

a native land court. In this court the

clare that there is no valid title unless

' Willing to Work.
The people of Manitou were enter
tained the other day by the spectacle
of a man carrying a stone around a
triangular track, letting it drop and
shouldering it again at every turn.
The performer was a man who has a
reputation for a disinclination to labor,
and the incident was the outcome of a
wail he was making about the hard
times and his inability to get work. A
citizen told him he would not work if
he got the chance and offered him SO
cents an hour as long as he would carry
the stone. To the surprise of all he ac
cepted the offer and held out for five
hours. A large crowd gathered to
watch the performance.—Denver Re
