Select Story. A FAMILY SBOBET. Lady Eiistclmiiip was Uio widow of a tfuntleinaii who hail owned 0110 of tho tinust estates in tho English county of Yorkshire. Sim was tho solo executrix of her husband's property, which shu held in trust for their only son. The ago at which it should bu handed over to him was not tho usual ago of twenty 0110 however, Iflit twenty-five. At this age ho was also to receive another fortune.betiueathed by un eccen tric relativo in Scotland.and which, prin cipal and accumulated interest, amount ed to nioru than a million sleiling. Tho 0110 peculiar condition about this last bequest was that if tho young man did not take possession precisely at 12 o'clock upon his twenty-iifth birthday it was to revert to tho next heir named in tho will, and between whom and the late Sir Charles Eastchamp had existed a life-long dislike amounting almost to positive, hatred. Tho young man, now Sir Henry, Itad always had n - ii'.a'most amounting to a passion.for travelling.iind when hu liatl reached the ace of twenty throe had ao coinpanied an exploring expedition into the interior of Africa. Nearly two years nrtssed without anv word from him reached homo until, within a week of his twenty-fifth birthday, ho returned, and claiming hispropeity accord'ng to tho condition of both wills,took up his rcsid enco at the hall. A mouth afterward Lady Eastchamp was taken suddenly ill, and for several weeks was confined to her bed with a malignant fever. During the whole timo sho was most tenderly nursed by a young girl, her adopted daughter.and thanks to her care tho crisis of the fever was safely passed, and the lady was on tho fair way to re cover. For nearly a week theso favorable symptoms continred, nnd hho was fast approaching convalescence, when one nicrning tliu nurse, awaKcinng irom ncr loze in her chair, tound tno iaoy lying dead and cold in her bed. Tho alarm was given at once, and tho phyKicians,liurrieilly siimmoneu.ticciarcd that shu had died by poihon. Laudanum was tho drug that nail been used, and when the fact was learned that the previous afternoon tho lady's adopted daughter had lauehascd it in the adjoin ing village, though not at onco brought into custody, sue was piaccti uniier mrici surveillance. This adopted dauijliter whoso namo was Clara Lowell, was a very beautiful girl of not 111010 than eighteen. l'lio lultl ot 0110 01 Her Jormer seiiooiniatcs, who had died in giving her birth, Lady Eastchamp had always treated her as if sho had really been her own daughter, um now the girl could not nave appear ed 111010 inconsolable had sho in reality lost a mother. Notwithstanding her display of grief, however, tho circumstances appeared so strong against her that sho was ar rested. She admitted having purchased tho laiidamuu,in compliance with Lady East- champ's request, who had given tho vial to her son. This however, the young limn positively denied. When asUeil why she Had not sat up with tho siek lady as she had dono 011 previous nights, sho replied slio had dono so until iz o ciock, wncu 11 wns nt Lady Eastchamp's own request that sho had retiied. "As for any fuillier questions you may ask," sho said firmly, "I will not answer them. Though I may havo suspicions, I do not know anything except that I am innocent. Shu adhered (irmly to her resolution of silence, anil tho strictest examination could notextoit an answer from her. Her obstinaov, however, had bat the effect of confirming tho magistrates iu their heliet 111 her guilt, nnd hIio waa consigned to prison to await her trial, Though such was tho effect upon tho magistrates, there was 0110 lierson who thought differently. This waH 11 young detective who had been gent from Scot land Yard to work up tho case, and bis beliot 111 tho girls innoccnco was hrm. "hho is hiding somo family secret, not her own guilt," he said to himself ; nnd procmlinp; to tho prison lio tried to on gago her in conversntioii, in tho hope that somo chanco word would nivo him 11 cluo to tho solution of tho mystery. in tins lioiio lie was doomed to disap poiidment, how-over, for tho girl ltlt remained (Irmlv reticent, and nuito dis couraged, ho returned to tho hall, but with an idea Hint had before occurred to him takitit; moro definite shaiio in his brain. "If I could but imauino a motive." ho said to himself, "I would say it was the son who was guilty; but, no, thcro could Do 110110 possible. Still tho idea would not bo banished from his mind nnd, remaining nt tho hall for two days longer, he watched tho young baronet night and day, but with out finding tho least confirmation of his suspicious. Ho was on tho point of giving it up in bitter despair, when, on tho evening before tho funeral of the murdered lady, 1 a noto wns brought to him. ' It wns from the Eastchamp family lawycr,and contained about half a dozen words : "Cotno to my office at once." Rewarding tho messenger with a small coin, tho detectivo nt onco started to obey tho lawyers sumnion's. lie found him waiting for him with a Hushed faco and excited manner, and, seizing him by the arm, ho dragged him toward the inner ollice. "A most extraordinary thing," ho said "Marvelous I" llcforo tho detective could reply thoy had passed into tho private ollice and found themselves faco to faco with .1 young man whoso resemblance to thu young baronet was so remarkable that involuntarily ho exclaimed, "Sir Henry Eastchamp 1" "Yes," the young man answered, "the real one. You are, I understand a de tective. Explain " An involuntary exclamation from the detective's lip, as tho truth llashed upon iiim.intciTtipied the sentence. "Idiot I" he cried, "not to have thought of it before. I seo it all now." Then addressing thu young man : "l!ut how do you, b'u-, explain your absence at tho time when you should havo appeared in person to claim your legacy'" "Simply enough. I was with an ex ploring expedition in Africa, I was taken prisoner by the natives, and kept in cap tivity for over a year. As soon as I escaped I mado tho best of my way homo only to find another man had stepped into my shoes. "And did you send no word until your arrival 111 iMiglnim? "Yes. I telegraphed to my mother from Aden. "And that was ?" "A week a";o to day.' "And you have reached homo several days sooner than you expected when you telegraphed .' "Yes." Tho detective could not ru train from an expression of pleasure "It grows as clear as noonday," ho said. "It was tho following night your mother was inurdr et! Ho was silent for a mcment, evident ly thinkini' deeply. Then he asked: "Is there any one at tho hall any old servant that has known you from child hood! "YeSjSeveral. There is my old nurse, Esther, besides "That will do," the detectivo interrupt' ed : "let us lose no time, but go to the hall. AVc may bo too lato as it is. His enthusiasm and energy wero not without their effect upon li'm companions, and iu silence they followed his instruc tions. Without a word they followed him from tho office, and, hailing a pass ing carriage, entered it, and were driven to tho hah. At the park gates they alighted, and proceeding to the hoi'se, entered by tho servant's door. "Whero is Sir Henry t" tho detective 1 asked one of tho servants. "In thu libri' y.sir," tho man answered; "but ho is busy, and does not wish to be disturbed to night." "It is no matter," tho detective said ; "send his old nurse, Mrs. Esther, there at once." After giving his command he passed rapidly along tho passage and up the staiicase, still followed by tho lawyer mid his companion, until ho reached tho library door, which, without knocking, ho opened and entered tho room, Tho supposed baron was seated at an escritoiro writing, and nt tho intrusion looked np with a haughty frown on his face. "What does this mean V hebegan,bnt before ho could finish tho sentenco tho detective had reached his side, and laid his hand upon his arm. "It only means," he answered, "that the rightiul heir has como to claim his owiand.Ijan officer of thn detectivo force, iiriebt you for tho murder of Lady East champ.'' A cry 01 dcf-pair uroko iroiuuio npsoi tho arrested man, but with a sudden leap he wrenched himself from tho detective's grasp, whilo his hand sought his breast. Thinking ho was about to draw some weapon,thu detectivo's hand also grasped Jus revolver, but before lie nail done so, tho prisoner's hand had again been taken from his breast and raised to his month. Tho sound of breaking glass as a vial was crushed between Jim tcctli, caused a malediction to leave tho lips of tho de tective. "Ho lias escaped us," ho cried, with chagrin. "ch, tho prisonerniiBwereiLinn voice of despairing triumph, "I havo escaped 011. in a lew moro moments 1 will be, ih, heaven 1" His voico died away in a choking sob, and ho fell, faco downward on tho lloor. Almost nt tho samo moment tho door of the liliiary again opened, and an old woman ot moro than Kixty entered.
