The Diamond Bracelet
By MRS HENRY WOOD
Author of Ejst Lynne Etc
CHAPTER IX Continued
The bracelet could not have gone
without hands to take It Gerard re
plied Lady Sarah How else do you
accsunt for Its disappearance
I I believe there must bo some
misapprehension some great mistake
in the affair altogether Lady Sarah It
apears incomprehensible now but it
will be unraveled
Ay and in double quick time
wrathfully exclaimed the Colonel
You must think you are talking to a
pack of Idiots Master Garard Here
the bracelets was spread temptingly
out on a table you went Into the
room being hard up for money fin
gered it wished for it and both you
and the bracelet disappeared Sir
turning sharply to the officer did a
clearer case ever go before a jury
Gerard Hope bit his lip Be more
just Colonel said he Your own
brothers son steal a bracelet
And I am happy my brother Is not
alive to know it rejoined the Colonel
in an obstinate tone Take him in
hand Mr Oflicer well go to Marl
borough street Ill just change my
coat and
No no you will not cried Lady
Sarah laying hold of the dressing
gown and the Colonel in it you shall
not go nor Gerard either Whether
he is guilty or not it must not be
brought against him publicly He
bears your name Colonel and so do I
and It would reflect disgrace on us all
Perhaps you are made of money
my lady If so you may put up with
the loss of a 250 bracelet I dont
choose to do so
Then Colonel you will and you
must Sir added Lady Sarah to the
detective we are obliged to you for
your attendance and advice but it
turns out to be a family affair as you
perceive and we must decline to
prosecute Besides Mr Hope may not
be guilty
Alice rose and stood before Colonel
Hope Sir if this charge were pre
ferred against your nephew if it came
to trial I think it would kill me You
know my unfortunate state of health
the agitation the excitement of ap
pearance to give evidence would be
I I cannot continue I cannot speak
of it without terror I pray you for
my sake do not prosecute Mr Hope
The Colonel was about to storm
forth an answer but her white face
ner heaving throat had some effect
even en him
He is so doggedly obstinate Miss
Seaton If he would but confess and
tell where it is perhaps Id let him
off
Alice thought somebody else was ob
stinate
I do not believe he has anything to
confess she deliberately said I
truly believe that he has not He could
not have taken it unseen by me and
when we quitted the room I feel sure
the bracelet was left in it
It was left in it so help me heav
en uttered Gerard
And now Ive got to speak added
Frances Chenevix Colonel if you
were to press the charge against
ard I would go before the magistrates
and proclaim myself the thief I vow
and protest I would just to save him
and you and Lady Sarah could not
prosecute me you know
You do well to stand up for him
retorted the Colonel You would not
be quite so ready to do It though my
Lady Fanny if you knew something
I could tell you
Oh yes I should returned the
young lady with a vivid blush
The Colonel beset on all sides had
no choice but to submit but he did so
with an ill grace and dashed out of
the room with the officer as fiercely
as if he had been charging an enemy
at full tilt
The sentimental apes these women
make of themselves cried he in his
polite way when he had got him in
private Is it not a clear case of
guilt
In my private opinion it certainly
is was the reply though he carries
it off with a high hand I suppose
Colonel you still wish the bracelet to
be searched for
Search in and out and high and
low search everywhere The rascal
I
to aare even to enter my nouse in
secret
May I inquire if the previous breach
with your nephew had to do with
money affairs
No said the Colonel turning more
crusty at the thoughts called up I
fixed up a wife for him and he would
nt have her so I turned him out of
doors and stopped his allowance
Oh was the only comment of the
police officer
CHAPTER X
It was in the following week and
Saturday night Thomas without his
hatt was standing at Colonel Hopes
door chatting to an acquaintance
when he perceived Gerard come tear
ing up the street Thomas friend
backed against the rails and the
spikes and Thomas himself stood
with the door in his hand ready to
touch his iair to Mr Gerard as he
passed Instead of passing however
Gerard cleared the steps at a bound
pulled Thomas with himself inside
shut the door and double locked it
Thomas was surprised in all ways
Not only at Mr Hopes coming in at
all for the Colonel had again harshly
forbidden the house to him and the
servants to admit him but at the
j denness and strangeness of the action
Cleverly done quoth Gerard when
he could get his breath I saw a
shark after me Thomas and had to
make a bolt for it Your having been
at the door saved me
Thomas turned pale
Mr Gerard you have locked It and
Ill put up the chain if you order me
but Im afeared its going agin the law
to keep out them detectives by force of
arms
Whats the mans head running on
now returned Gerard There are
no detectives after me it was only a
seedy sheriffs officer Pshaw Thom
as theres no worse crime attached to
me than a slight suspicion of debt
Im sure I trust not sir only mas
ter will have his own way
Is he at home
Hes gone to the opera with my
lady The young ladles are upstairs
alone Miss Seaton has been ill sir
ever since the bother and Lady Fran
ces is staying at home with her
Ill go up and see them If they
are at the opera we shall be snug and
safe
Oh Mr Gerard had you better go
up do you think the man ventured
to remark If the Colonel should
come to hear of It
How can he You are not going
to tell him and I am sure they will
not Besides theres no help for it
I cant go out again for hours And
Thomas If any demon should knock
and ask for me I am gone to to an
evening party up at Putney went out
you know by the side door
Thomas watched him run up the
stairs and shook his head One cant
help liking him with it all though
where could the bracelet have gone
to If he did not take it
The drawing rooms were empty and
Gerard made his way to a small room
that Lady Sarah called her boudoir
There they were Alice buried in the
pillows of an invalids chair and Lady
Frances careening about the room ap
parently practicing some new dancing
step She did not see him Gerard
danced up to her and took her hand
and joined in it
When the cats away the mice can
play cried Gerard treating them to a
step
Mr Hope remonstrated Alice lift
ing her feeble voice how can you in
dulge these spirits while things are so
miserable
Sighing and groaning wont make
them light he answered sitting down
on a sofa near to Alice Heres a seat
for you Fanny come along he added
pulling Frances to his side First
and foremost has anything come to
light about that mysterious bracelet
Not yet sighed Alice But I
have no rest I am in hourlv fear of
it
Fear uttered Gerard in astonish
ment Alice winced and leaned her
head upon her hand she spoke in a
low tone
You must understand what I mean
Mr Hope The affair has been pro
ductive of so much pain and annoy
ance to me that I wish it could be ig
nored forever
Though it left me under a cloud
said Gerard You must pardon me if
I cannot agree with you My constant
hope is that it may all come to day
light I assure you I have specially
mentioned it In my prayers
Pray dont Mr Hope reproved
Alice
Im sure I have cause to mention it
for it is sending me into exile that
and other things
It is guilty only who flee not the
innocent said Frances You dont
mean what you say Gerard
Dont I Theres a certain boat ad
vertised to steam from London bridge
wharf tomorrow wind and weather
permitting and it steams me with It
I am compelled to fly my country
Be serious and say what you
mean
Seriously then I am over head and
ears in debt You know my uncle
stopped my allowance in the spring
and sent me metaphorically to the
dogs I had a few liabilities and they
have all come down upon me But for
thi3 confounded bracelet affair theres
no doubt the Colonel would have set
j tied them rather than let the name of
Hope be dubiously bandied by the
public he would have expended his
ire in growls and have gone and done
it But that is over now and I go to
take up my abode in some renowned
colony for desolate English beyond
the pale of English lock ups Bou
logne or Calais or Dieppe or Brussels
I may see and there I may be kept for
years
Neither of the young ladies answered
immediately they saw the facts were
serious and that Gerard was only
making light of it before them
How shall you live questioned
Alice You must live there as well
as here you cannot starve
I shall just escape the starving I
have got a trifle enough to swear by
and keep me on potatoes and salt
Dont you envy me my prospects
When do you suppose you may re
turn inquired Lady Frances I ask
it seriously Gerard
I know no more than you Fanny
I have no expectations but from the
Colonel Should he never relent I
am caged there for good
And so you ventured here to tell
us this and bid us good by
No I never thought of renturing
here how could I tell that the bashaw
would be at the opera A shark set
on me in the street and I had to run
for my life Thomas happened to bo
conveniently at the door and I rushed
in and saved myself
A shark uttered Alice In dismay
who in her Inexperience had taken
his words literally a shark in the
street
Lady Frances Chenevix laughed
One with sharp eyes and a hooked
nose Alice speeding after me on two
legs with a polite Invitation from one
of the law lords He is watching on
the opposite side now
How shall you get away ex
claimed Frances
If the bashaw comes home before
12 Thomas must dispose of me some
where in the lower regions Sunday is
free for us thank goodness So please
make the most of me both of you for
it Is the last time you will have the
privilege By the way Fanny will
you do me a favor There used to be
a little book of mine in the glass book
case in the library my name in it
and a mottled cover I wish you would
go and find it for me
CHAPTER XI
Lady Frances left the room with
alacrity Gerard immediately bent
over Alice and his tone changed
I have sent her away on purpose
Shell be half an hour rummaging
for I have not seen the book there for
ages Alice one word before we part
You -must know that it was for your
sake I refused the marriage proposed
to me by my uncle you will not let
me go into banishment without a word
of hope a promise of your love to
lighten it
Oh Gerard she eagerly said I
am so glad you have spoken I almost
think I should have spoken myself if
you had not Just look at me
I am looking at you he fondly
answered
Then look at my hectic face my
constantly tired limbs my sickly
hands do they not plainly tell you
that the topics you would speak of
must be barred topics to me
Why should they be You will get
stronger
Never There is no hope of it
Many years ago when the Illness first
came on me the doctors said I might
get better with time but the time has
come and come and come and gone
and only left me a more confirmed in
valid To an old age I cannot live
most probably but a few years ask
yourself Gerard if I am one who
ought to marry and leave behind a
husband to regret me perhaps chil
dren No no
You are cruel Alice
The cruelty would be if I selfishly
allowed you to talk of love to me or
still more selfish to let you cherish
hopes that I would marry When you
hinted at this the other evening when
than wretched bracelet was lost I re
proached myself with cowardice in
not answering more plainly than you
had spoken I should have told you
Gerard as I tell you now that nothing
no persuasion from the dearest person
on earth shall ever induce me to
marry
You dislike me I see that
I did not say so answered Alice
with a glowing cheek I think it
very possible that if I could ever al
low myself to dwell on such things I
should like you very much perhaps
better than I could like any one
And why will you not her per
suasively uttered
Gerard I have told you I am too
weak and sickly to be other than I
am It would only be deceiving myself
and you No Gerard my love and
hopes must lie elsewhere
Where he eagerly asked
Alice pointed upwards
I am learning to look upon it as my
home she whispered and I must not
suffer hindrances to obscure the way
It will be a better home than even
your love Gerard
Gerard Hope smiled

An
GIRL WHO GOT PRETTIER
Embarrassing Misunderstanding
Cansed by a Vocal CockneyUm
Mr Charles Whymper the well
known engraver and animal painter
told the following anecdote a few
years ago I dined at Mr
at Highgate last night and as a
mark of honor his eldest daughter was
assigned to me to take down to din
ner Shes a bright girl and I got
along very nicely with her and Lady
Bietherington on the other side until
the ladies were on the eve of retiring
to the drawing room I was talking
about the beautiful scenery near the
house the views from the windows
the fine air when Miss suddenly
said I think I get prettier every day
dont you What could she mean I
did not dare to answer her so I said
I beg your pardon what did you
say I said I think I get prettier
every day There was no mistaking
her words so I answered Yes in
deed you get prettier and no wonder
in such fresh air and Just then she
caught her mothers eye and with the
other ladies she left the room As she
went out she looked over her shoulder
with such a withering scorn in her
eyes that I knew I had put my foot in
it some how Then it flashed upon
me that I had misunderstood her she
had dropped an h What she had
said was not a silly compliment to
herself the sentence really was I
think Highgate prettier every day
Mr Whympers hair is quite gray now

TOO MANY ORDERS E0R COAL
Pennsylvania Company Umible to Sleet
Enropeun Demand
PHILADELPHIA Pa Nov 30 No
more foreign orders for anthracite are
to be accepted by the Philadelphia
Reading Coal and Iron company for
the present These have become so
large and so numerous in the last
month that to supply them would seri
ously interfere with meeting the de
mand for home consumption The
cargoes already landed in European
ports particularly of France and Ger
many have proved so successful in ad
vertising the American article among
foreign consumers of coal that almost
daily orders from French German
and even English manufacturers are
reaching the offices of the Reading
company
Present low rates to European ports
on outgoing vessels are principally ac
countable for the foreign demand The
freight to French ports now costs only
S237 per ton the price formerly being
at least 4 Agents of the Western
railway of France say they are ready
to order thousands of tons of Ameri
can coal if they can continue obtain
