"Well, I tried ono or two leads, but
could net nt nothing which would help
our hypothesis ami Nvvcral points
which would make against It. I nave
It up at last, and off I went to Nor
wood. "This place, Deep Deno House, is a

This window on the left Is the one
which opens lulu Oldaero's room. You
can look into It fioiii the road, you see.
That is about t lie only bit of consola
tion I have had today. I.estrade was
not there, but his head constable did
the honors. They had Just found a
great treasure trove. Thoy had spent
tin morning taking iiiuoug the ashes
of the burned wood pile, and beddes
the charted organic remains they had
secured several discolored metal disks,
examined them with care, and there
was no doubt that they were trotiser

I crawled about the lawn with an

removed, but there also the marks
were slight. There Is no doubt about

left on the table. The papers had been
made up into sealed envelopes, one or
two of which had been opened by tho

Ibid. This, of etui-e. if we could dell
nltely prove It, would turn I.estrado's
argument against himself, for who
would steal a thing If he knew that Im
would shortly Inherit It?
"Finally, having drawn every other
cover and picked up no scent, I tried
my luck with the housekeeper. Mrs.
Lexington Is her name a little, dark,
silent person, with .suspicious and side
long eyes, She could tell us something
If she would. 1 am convinced of It.
Hut she vi as as close us wax. Yes, she
had let Mr. Mcl'iii'lanc In at half past
It. She wished her hand had withered
before she had done so. She had g me
to bed at hall' past in. llcr loom was
at the oilier cud of the house and she
could hoar nothing of what passed.
Mr. Mcl'arlano had left his hat ami, to
the best of her belief, his stick ill the
hall. She had been awakened by the
alarm of tiro. Her poor, dear muster
had certainly been murdered. Had he
any enemies? Well, every man had
enemies, but Mr. oldacro kept himself
very much to himself ami only met
people lu the way of business. She had
seen the buttons and was sure Unit
they belonged to the clothes which he
had worn last night. The wood pile
was very dry, for It had not rained
for a month. It burned like tinder,
ami by the time she reached the spot

niul all tlie llrotnen smelled the burn

nothing of the papers nor of Mr. Old

port of a failure And .rut and yet"
ho clinched Jii.t thin hnnds In n par
oxysm of conviction "I know It's all
wrong. I feel It In my bones. Then)
Is something that has not come out,
and that housekeeper knows It. There
was a sort of sulky dellanco In her
eyes which only goes with guilty
knowledge. However, there's no good
talking any more about It, Watson.

our way 1 fear that the Norwood dis

chronicle of our successes which I foro

later have to endure,"
