The : Mystcry of the Conways.I I W
, Times ,
There was som thtig | strange about thjf
Conways of North Aberdeen something
which seemed to yis's ' , vvltli the olil manor
hotuo anil the great , estate known as Kdge-
wood , from father , 'toj < on. Kach ono of the
line , stretching fan : back Into the colonial
days , whtn the grant had been made to
Philip Conway , courtier and gallant soldier ,
had lived a long life' , but each ono at length
hail Ijocn found dead In hU bed , twisted
and convulsed by some awful visitation from
God. So unvarying this ending that It had
conic to be regarded as natural and com
monplace. "Tho 'old man vent oft the
leg'lar way , " the rustics would comment.
"Well , there's a long life at any rate afore
the young "un need fret , and never a sign of
sickness. "
Hy the family , also , this trait was ac
cepted equably , and wag very seldom referred
to In conversation. When one seems to have
the ; assurance of life and health until three
score nnd ten , the manner of one's talcing
oft thereafter can not be a constant or poig
nant apprehension. At all events. It was
speedy when It came ; one terrific wrench ,
and the barriers between sleep and death
were burst asunder. And lliere was n dls-
tlnctlon In such a demise : the owner of
Kdgewood manor seemed to be marked by
fate , oven as he was removed from other
men by strength and wealth , by pride In his
ancestors and devotion to their traditions
nnd principles.
On the single occasion when old Benjamin
? 2Vray spoke ° c iMs fatnllty to his nephew
Fabian , who was to be his heir , ho illus-
traled well the family view.
'Ion will soon be Conway of Edgewood
iny % % ' fho ° m mnn Bal'1' "r m already
IB. and only ono of our line , Sebastian , who
died Just 100 years ago. has ever exceeded
this ago by a year. I feel halo and strong ,
but then the Conways are always so to the
day of their death. It woutd seem an If lo
compensate for the mystery that there was
a condition precedent of a sound mind In n
sound body. I for one wouldn't alter thr
consequent If I could. I llko to feel that an
during life I have done aa the other Con-

if
If
mortality generally was \\m\ieA \ \ \ to one
sharp Instant pain , the world would be a
happier place. So I look forward with equa
nimity , even as I know you will. It Is a com
fort , too. for mo to know that you nnd Con
stance will have lived with me for so lonK
a time , that your succoaalon will Impose no
new or strange duties. You will exercise
the same supervision of the house. I'm sure-
Iho regular repairs In the fall , the cleansing
In the spring. You will keep up tlio breeds
of horses and caltlo which our race have
made famous , reserving a black stallion of
the Norfolk straln for your own personal
use. } ou will keep to the rotation of crops ,
ana the system of top-dressing. You will
grow the Weldon strawberries exclusively
for the family table , and always take your
morning draught fXrom the master's twine.
\ou will Insist on our Inalienable- right to
the square pew ta the village church , and
to the vault under the chancel. "
i. ' ! Yes' , yes' Iny jdear' ' 6lr- " reP cd Fabian ,
lightly ; "I will do nil these thlnga when I
have to , but I feuvently prny that you may
prove an exception in longevity to the general -
oral rule of the Cons-ays , if fop no other
reason than the selfish one that you manage
affairs so admirably-j and that wo are so
happy In our freei ojii from care. Constance
was saying this .morning . that our married
life Is , as blissful as. that ot our first parents '
since , like theirs. It Is spent in paradise "
Old Benjamin , ' , looked grave. "And
yet , " he objected , . "Constance is unhappy because -
cause I choose tobring my w'ard. Nellie
Lane , to Hvo wltjus ) , notwithstanding that
thoy' are old " " ' 1
pchoplmale.9iand-r"t" ,
"You should ralhbr say ' 'because ' uncle "
explained Fabian , gently , "Cons/nnca docs
disapprove of Miss .Lane becauoa she thinks
her selfish and giddy. "
"That's a , dangerous rule to establish for
the exclusion of young women , " grumbled
old Benjamin.
"Constance feels , besides , that her brother ,
Charllo Tarks. Is hopelessly Infatuated with
Miss Lane , and "
"I don't see why 'hopeless. ' And docs
your wlfo propose to rorerve all infatuation
for herself ? "
"But. uncle , " pleaded Fabian , "she think ?
that Mlsn Lane has been wrong In the way
she lias persistently refused Dr. Qulnby. "
"Good Lord ! Constance will be establish
ing a matrimonial agency yet. Couldn't yon
gently suggest to her that such matters are
the personal concerns of my ward ? "
"I thought you usad to glvo my wife credit
for eounil sense and good Judgment , " said
Fabian , rather sulkily.
"I used to , yea. But there there. I've
heard all this before , and its repetition Is
quite useless. You will find ono ot the privi
leges of Conway of Edgewood , Is to have his
will in his own house. My ward conies on
the morrow , and I pxpect her to receive all
tha consideration due to my ward. You
might mention this to Constance. "
And on the morrow Miss Lane did arrive
at the manor house , and was welcomed coldly
by Constance , carelessly by Fabian , and with
kindness by her guardian , all of which differ
ences she apparently accepted as natural and
proper In the persons showing them. No
casual observer vvquld be apt to apply Con
stance's epithets to Miss Lane. Her main
characteristics seemed to bo serenity , as far
removed from gaiety as It was from morose-
nosi. She was at once at home at once , ono
might almost say , familiar .with the dally
routine. She fitted Into a place unassum
ingly , yet there never was the slightest doubt
as to her pole right to It. She never ob
truded herself ; that seemed to be a duty
somehow Imposed on circumstances ; nt all
events , It gradually came about that the same
casual observer would have taken Miss Lane
for the daughter of the house , and Constance
for the ward , entertained , on sufferance , If
not through charity.
Naturally , Constance did not llko this
change , by whatever assumption produced ;
and what she didn't like Fabian , as a
dutiful husband , detested. There occurred
some unwonted and unseemly speues of dis
sension In the old manor. In which the
master , his heir , and his heir's wlfo took
part , and Miss Line only appeared as a
passive spectator. She neither pleaded for
peace nor offered her departure as an at
tuning sacrifice. If anything , her mien In
dicated that the qthers wcro acting very
much like children a part which she could
not , If she would , .undertake. Matters cul
minated In oxtreni9Jj'u8t ) ) as a prlzo fight
Is apt to be flnlsliDii tiftder the ropes. Fabian
and Constance stiHeU In a huff for tone ,
without a word ot'Wrewell to the master ,
while MSH | Lane waved 'an adieu from the
porch with the'affablTUy of a hostess speedIng -
Ing the parting gueVti
What , then , was 4lie. cause of this breach
eo disadvantageous 'to the young couple ?
It was coinposed'Jof various parts not alto
gether homogeneous" for envy Is seldom
logical. In the ( I'm place , Charlie Parks
kept coming to IWftbwood , and this fre
quency , which j&oultl have been ao de-
I'glitful , was rendered odious to Constance
through the knowledge that she WAS not
the attraction. Sisterly affection ivmietlmM
excels passion In jealous capability. It
Deemed cruel , that It did , that 'the one she
loved best on earth for after all Fabian
was mostly n matter of worldly pride-
should be so Inconsiderate to her wishes nm
warnings. If he could only sec with her
ryes , ho would shrink ns ardently ns be
now pressed , but all men wcro blind , am
soft-hearted , especially lovable men , and oi
all men her brother Charllo was the mosl
lovable.
Constance liked Dr. Ilnndall Qulnby
ot Aberdeen In a purely platonlc way , for
Its the generous that are likely to bo the
pat'Jlonatc. The doctor was affable and
obliging , with the habit of saying little tnii-
llcloug things In confidence. Of ! cto , es
pecially since Charllo had proved so per
sistent , the little malicious Ihlncs had been
said concerning Miss Uitic. The doctor
hinted that she had made private Inquiries
as to the salary Parks received an resident
chemist nt the Clilchestcr Aniline works ,
nnd with dissatisfaction , and that the neigh
bors wouldn't be at all surprised to sco her
set her cap for old Benjamin , Constance
still retained some portion ot her former
common sense and good judgment , She
i realized that the doctor's nature , llko his
I eyes , was tricky and small : that he hated
i now because he could not love , and sought
tn Injure because ho could not cherish , but
yet she Itstcncd. Some servant's gossip , too ,
reached her through her mnld , and this
rather upheld the doctor's statement. Serv
ants always look with suspicion on unselfish
kindness ; perhaps from the principle that
what Is stra' o should be clouted. And nld
Benjamin o , alnly was kind to Miss Lanu.
In striving .iot to mnko any distinction In
Constance's favor he did make a difference
In bcr despite. Ever Mnce her marriage
she had ruled as a queen ; It was hard now
to have to share , nnd with one so distasteful.
It was hard to hove presents given In dupli
cate and to realize , when admiring , that her
rival had the same cause for gratification.
Old Benjamin's generosity , which lu the good
old days had been so fecund of delightful
surprise ? , now became the source of slights
and exasperations.
Constance did not have the faculty ot castIng -
Ing aside troubles. They increased within
her until they crowded out prudence , discre
tion , almost decency Itself. One day nt
luncheon some chance gesture of old Benja
min , not a caress , but partaking ot a caress *
gentleness , set the mob within his niece's
breast In motion. She stormed , and Miss
Lane smiled and the old man grew sarcastic.
And so she and Fabian went forth from
luxury to seek the narrow lodgings of pride
In the rltv.
Narrow lodgings , Indeed ; for pride with
out possessions is llko a soldier without
munitions , instructed only to Its own Im
potence. Fabian had no business and no
resources , save n liberal allowance , which ,
llko all liberal allowances , was always half
spent before It was due. The heir of the
Conways was expected to wait at Edge-
wood ; that was all. But now Constance
chose to wait In the city , and. of course ,
her wish ruled Fabian. They thus showed
their Independence ; but this commodity is
not only rosily , but rapidly consumed ; Ht-
llo by llttlo UH procuring was exhausting
their ready means.
After a few weeks it became necessary
for the young people to seek still narrower
lodging * but oh ! what a depressing task
this was for Constance. It seemed as If the
meaner her surroundings the more con
temptible , too , became the Impulses of her
heart. H startled her often to analyze her
desires , they were so virulent , as cruel.
Could It be that she would really consign
that old man , that young girl , to any evil
fate ? But circumstances did seem harden
on her. Take Fabian , for Instance , It was
so Irritating to have hlin around ; there was
such a difference between a lazy man with
plenty of avocations and a lazy man with
nothing to do. Then , though Charllo knew
where they were , he had never como nor
even written ; and yet the Chlchester works
were only twenty miles distant. Moreover ,
Mrs. Buffum , the housekeeper , kept writing
from Kdgewood ; the good old soul , she meant
no possible harm , but It did seem that If n
prize had been offered for n collection of an
noying details , she would have been a facile
winner. AH the servants , the old woman
wrote , were so fond of Miss Lane , she was
so gentle and such little trouble. And they
did hope that the master would marry her.
Ho was young for his years , for aact and
perhaps now that he had passed 70 he had
avoided the dreadful fate of the Conways.
He was monstrous fond of her , any ouo with
half an eye could see that.
Ono day Fabian and Constance moved Into
new and poorer quarters , and In the midst
or trunks and boxes were striving to convert
the desert Into home. Both were honestly
starving , but Fabian , true to nature , wda
accomplishing naught , except to goad his
wife s vehemence by his blunders. And Con
stance really wasn't requiring any urging.
The confusion alone .was sufficient ; besides
she detested the mean aspect of the rooms ,
tno snuffy appearance of the landlady and
the frowslness of the serving mnld , who al
ready showed signs of undaunted familiarity
In the very midst of the bustling , stumbling ,
hectoring and excusing Fabian suddenly
thrust his bands into his pockets , and then
drew them high In air. exclaiming : "My
purse ! Where is it ? I've been robbed ! "
"Fabian , " cried Constance , "Is It possible
that you couldn't even hold anything ? Why
you haven't the Intelligence of a box. Well
this Is a lltllo too much. Now kindly Inform
me what you are going to do ? "
Fabian held out 'ruefully n handful of small
change. "We can hardly IIvo on this , " he
said ; "we might go homo ; I suppose we
could get there by freight. "
"Never ! " protested Constance. "Never
will I submit to the Insulls of that creature-
she would be patronizingly kind , you know
she would. No , there Is but one thing to bo
done you must go at once to Ohlchester
and get help from Charlie. You can bo
back by midnight. And , mind , have him
pin whatever ho gives you in your Inside
pocket. " And Fabian hurried away llko a
school boy released from punishment.
Constance continued her work , but with
troubled mind. Fabian had served as a sort
of safety valve for her Iirltablllty , but now
It surged and seethed within her uncon
trolled. Of course , lie would make a meis
of his mission , and then what could they
do except as he suggested go homo by
freight ? Constance pictured and replcturod
the scenes of her humiliation. How old Ben
jamin would aneer and Jest , how the kerv-
ants would wonder ; how Nellie Lane would
try to be considerate. The certainty of this
latter especially perturbed Constance , If her
former schoolmate would only quarrel ; if
only for once they might exchange frank
opinions , then , perhaps , they might become
friends , or , at least , observe a respectful
truce. But Nellie would ilo nothing of the
sort , she knew eho wouldn't ; she would per
sist In remaining gentle and quiet and firm ,
and above all , sweet , that acme of all dis
agreeable qualities ! And yet she was no
better than anyone else If the truth were
told. Hadn't she Jilted Dr. Qulnby and be
fooled poor Charlie and allured old Benja-
muii ? But that very morning Constance had
received a letter from Mrs , Buffum , the
„ , , might j ust as well
fry'to u blow around a weather vane as to help some
II people by pointing out the right way. They
won't see it. Even if you
prove to them that it's the
easiest way , and the safest ,
and cheapest , they won't walk
in it.
But this isn't ' so with all. It's
only a few , comparatively.
We're not complaining.
There are millions of women who have seized on Pearline's
way of washing glad to save their labor , time , clothes , and

It was late In the evening when ahe hai

ilen froniy tore It Into bit ? . It hid been one
of the first gift- ' from old llcnjamln after Mi
vard'a arrival , and the \ery flrrt of which
MlM Ijino had received the duplicate. Now
It happened that jiut prior to tttlg outburs

"Oh , mem. shuro and 'tis nn lllcRatit little
hat. And ptmt did It cost. If ya don't mind
and where did ye Ret It now ? "
Consequently , when Constance reflected ot
what she had done , she was averse to fur
ther domestic Inquiry nr mirmlsc. Hut what
then should she do with the fragments , olnce
she would not pond them down stnlrsT It ! ho
loft them on a ! > hclt or In a trunk , Fabian
would surely blunder acrois them ; and
though the cared not what ho raid or thought
E > ho was a little ashamed of her peo\Ulms
and preferred to keep It to herself. After
all , the removal of the pieces was n simple
matter. The night w-as dark , the street
quiet , and In any event no ono knew her ,
Constance nctcd quickly. She made a Bmnl
package of the desiccated bonnet and trlppeJ
out of the house. She turned the corner and
passed along n fence evidently boun-lliig pri
vate grounds. She tossed the bundle , ami
there rho made a fatal tulptiko. Of course
It fell thort ; and as she stooped to pick It up
for another attempt a heavy hand was laid
on tier shoulder and n gruff voice demanded :
"Hero ! here ! what are you trying to make

straightened herself , there , clew beside her.

woman when she losou her Bclf-possesslon.

"Then It's my bushier to find out , " replied
the oftlcor , grimly. "There's an al rtr. ut

come down to the lamp post wltli me like a
good girl. "
Like a good girl. Constance choked 'vlth
Ire to think that the mistress of EilKewo-xl
should have como to such a tltlo ; nnd In sn
choking last precious moments for explana
tion. The ofllcer led her lo the corner , and ,
still keeping his hand through her am
opened the package.
"What's this ? " he exclaimed. "A bonnel
of violets and blue ribbons , all torn , nml
about to bo secreted ? Casey. I believe you're
In luck ! Young woman , I must take you In
Walk along peacefully with me to the station
housa on the next block , and nobody will be

I'll put you In the box and ring for the

Constance gained n transient courage.

"How dare you ? nho
"Do you know who I am ? I am Mrs. Conway -
way of Edgpwood , North Aberdeen , and my
people will have you punished for this out
rage ! "
"Look at that now } the very name ! " cried
the officer exultantly. "Conway of Rdgc-
wood for a thousand bones. Young woman ,
you como right along , or I'll put the strings
on you , that I will. " And as Constance saw
some passers-by slopping nnd gazing curi
ously , she fairly clung to the officer and
hurried to the station houpe.
There was a soldierly looking sorg'jant
seated behind the desk In the low , Ill-lighted
room , who listened gravely to the officers
excited report , commented , "What , another
" then turned compassionately
0110 of them ? and
ately toward Constance. "I must caution
you , " he paid , "to be careful what you fay ,
for your worda might be used against you. "
"What do you moan ? " asked Constance
faintly. "What right have you to treat me
Si ? "
"Tliero has been a Beneral alarm , " ex
plained the sergeant , ' 'for ' a young woman
dressed In black and wearing a small violet
bonnet. You are black ; you are found trying
to conceal fragments of a violet bonnet ; you
glvo no explanation of the matter , oxecpt to
"
mention the name of the very man
"Oh. tell mo , " Interrupted Constance , all
In a tremble , "of what am I accused ? "
"You are wanted on suspicion of having
caused the dsath of Benjamin Conway of
North Aberdeen by poison. Didn't the officer
tell you ? "
Then Constance burst into a rapid , Inco
herent recital of her actions , to which the
sergeant listened with courteous attention.
"Can't you eand for your husband ? " he
suggested ; "or , If he's out of town , an you
say can't the people In your boarding house-
vouch for you ? " and on merely receiving
more Incoherence , ho announced decisively :
"What you say may all bo true , madam , but
I consider It my duty to detain you. You
may communicate with your friends , but
there are several suspicious circumstances
which will have to be explained. We really
have no proper accommodations here for
bo private and comfortable
women , but you shall as
fortable as possible. I wouldn't put you In a
cell and the only other place Is the upper
room , which la already occupied by a young
woman who Is held on a similar charge.
Uasey , just show the way. "
Constanctt proceeded up the Blairs , nnd
was shown into a large , gloomy room. The
dcor was locked. She ttcpped forward to
throw herself on the narrow couch , when out
from the window embrasure darted a girl
ish form , which surrounded her with lovlnj ;
arms and drew her head down on a toii'lcr
breast.
"Don't you know mo , dear ? asked a
calm , gentle voice , and Constance , looking
up through her learn , saw her late uncle'4

"Nellie ! " cried Iho poor woman , hys-
lerlcally. "I was never so glad In all my
life to ECO any ono. Promise , oh , promise
mo , that you won't leave me , and I'll love
you forever and e\cr. "
"There , there ! " said Nellie , soothingly.
"I'll not leave you , never fear. And really ,
we can bo quite comfortable here together.
You bee , wo are perfectly safe ; that's a
nice , fatherly man down at the desk , and
then the door Is locked , you know. Now ,

cologne you uted to like. And If you'll lie
down and let mo alt and talk to you , you'll
bo asleep before you know It , and then
will como morning , and Fabian , and lib
erty. "
"You are an angel ! " vowed Constance.
"Simply and purely an angel , and I must
bo potucssed by a legion of dcvllu not to
have perceived It. And to I did , all along ,
but I was too mean , too spiteful "
"Now , If I'm going to take care of you , "
Interrupted Nclllo , kmlllifgly , "I inus.1 In
terdict such exaggeration , It's feverish you
Iviiow. Hut tell me , before It IE too late ,
where Is Fabian ? "
"Ho Is with Charlie. "
"Oh , that's all right ; then they both will
bo hero boon. I telegraphed for Clmrllo two

"Thank God ! " ejaculated Constance ,
"Thank Clod that you and Charllo are

"Vos , ho was found dead In his beJ narly

ouch , a dpeadful end , such an awful niyfclcry !
The coroner came with hla physician and
Insisted on an Investigation ; a thins never
before heard of In the history nf the fam

and all twU of rumors , culminating finally
In I at statement that Dr. Qulnby had found
undoubted flgni of mineral poisoning. And

cPrsonal lettcra to Professor Munyon , IGOf.
Arch street , Philadelphia , Pn. , answered'with '
free medical advice for any
present situation. At all et nts , I kept no
ticing that people avoided mo , nnd while they
whimpered and pointed , when I approached
they ceased. At first I didn't know what to
do , I was so Hlone , so IsalatcJ. I had tele
graphed for Fabian , but no answer came ;
finally I heard that the message could not bo
delivered. Then I revived to como to town
and seek him. I made my preparations , nnd ,
though once or twice I thought I was about
to be stopped , no one molested me. I arrived
safely nnd wont to your address , only to find
that you had moved without Izavlng any di
rection. Then , ns I wan wandering In the
hcpo of happening ncto. M one or the other of
you. an officer told mo to come wltb him , and ,
of course , 1 obeyed. "
"My poor darling ! " ctled Constance. "That
wretch ! that unspeakable wretch , Dr. Qulnby ,
did It out of revenge ? And to think that I
have treated him as n friend ! "
"I believe he's more malicious than wicked.
There seams to bo no doubt that my guardian
Aas actually poisoned. The wrong was lu
trying to place the guilt on mo. "
"But how could he have been poisoned ?
Who \o \ there that would murder an Inoffeml-
Inr old man ? "
"That's It ; who Is there except the young
noiiiati who was currently reported to enter
tain all torts of intrigues for her own ad
vancement ? But I've hud an opportunity
lo ponder for the last few hours , and 1 feel
there must be an explanation , simple and
without criminality. Why , just remember
that everyone of the long line of Con ways
has died in this same fiightful way' 'now ,
1 couldn't have poisoned thd others , could I ?
So It KOcniH to me that their deaths must
Inive been caused by something -which they
themselves have dene. They wcro all pe
culiar , you know ; rigid In adherence to cer
tain ciutoniH nnd privileges. For Instance "
But hero the key turned In the lock , the
door opened , and Fabian and Charlie rushed
Into thn arms of their distressed lady loves.
After explanations had been exchanged It
became apparent that Constance could bo
readily released , but she sticntiouiily opposed
the suggestion. i >
"Not for my life , " she protested. "I want
to have trouble , BO that 1 may become a
[ > catttlful character llko Nellie. " And so
the two men hurried away to take those '
steps for the joint vindication Vihlch had
occurred to Miss Lane during her hours of
solitude.
There was a crushing crowd In the cor
oner's little court room at North Aberdeen
on the day set for the hearing. All the
villagers , tenants and servants , to whom
Drldo In the Conwayx was a matter ot In-
lierltuucc , as well as of education , now
rushed to witness the humiliation of the
race. Dr. Qulnby was omnipresent In bus
tling Importance ; not aiylng much to any
one person , but conferring , generally , glances
of Impending revelation. At the right ot
the desk sat the two prisoners , Constance
and Nellie , sliln by Mile , nnd hand In hand.
After some necessary preliminary testimony
as to the finding of the body , etc. , Dr.
Qulnby took the Htund and showed by In
fallible tests that death had been produced
through mineral poisoning.
Then It was that the coroner , after n whis
pered consultation with Charlie. , EWOIO
Fabian Conway nr a witness , and examined
him on 11 divergent line. "Yes , " Fabian deposed -
posed , "I am the nephew and heir of the
deceased. Ho was a man whoso highest
ambition wag to follow Implicitly In the foot
steps of his aneoKlnrK , Thflr customs wcro
law to him. Whatever they were wont to
do , he did. For instance , he alwnyn rode a
Btull'an iif the Norfolk strain , and suffered
no one else to ever mount him. He In-
vailably drank , each morning , a draught
from an ancient well , known as the 'Master's
Spring , ' and suffered no one clcc to taste
111 uiitcr.s. Yes , I ha\ei some of the water
of this spring hum In this vial. I drew It
this morning and nealed It , and It has not
been out ot my posceBslcm ulncts"
Then It was that Uliaillo Parks xteppcd for
ward and tuhjertcd the water to the > amo
testa that Dr. Qulnby had cmployr-d , and lo !
the presence of that f.ume mineral poison ,
therein was Infallibly shovui ,
And then it was that a loanied biologist
from the city college demonstrated how ,
after years nf habitual use of this water ,
theio would be an accumulation of Hie polfcon
In the uygtem hulllcleiu to cuuo death , even
though , while HO slowly accumulating , it had
been conducive to good health. And to Iho
mjTtery nf the Conwuya was lit last eluci
dated , nnd the ladles wcro dlirhlrged with
the apologies of the court for the Indignity
to which they had been subjected ,
"Tiy a course of that water , doctor , " Bug ? ,

But th ; phyilclan left \hu \ nelghboihoqd Ion ; ;
before u ilally dtaught could have accom

was filled up , and thu the Conways In com

Fab'an ' , however , uav never heard to com *
plain because he had lost the assurance of "
reaching three tcoro and ton ; perhaps lie felt
that In true domestic felicity ho
