Which I alono havo tho power to sec.
Ah 1 I thought you would pauso at that faco,
Sho was fair as a poet's lay,
The sweetest rose of her English home,
Y. t Bhe perished far, far nway;
In the black tnassacro at Cawnporo
She suffered and dlcd-wo know no more.
And that? Ab, yes. 'tis a noblo head!

Sho was my friend In the days gone b',
And she Is my enemy no v.

One of life's tragedies let It piss.
This face? Ho was my loer, Jeanncttc;
And perchance ho remembers bo-day
The passionate wrong that wrecked us both
When he sailed In his ang;r away.
Heart-sick and hopch si through weary years
At length I forgot hint -despite these tears.
That handsome fellow? He loved mo too;
And he vowed he would die, my dear,
When I told him "No" 'tis long ago:
He married tho very next year.
That one I liked a little, but ho
Cared much tor my gold, nothing fur mo.
Brides and bridegrooms together dear,
And most of them parted to-day,
Some famous men that are iulle forgot.
Some beauties faded and gray.
Closo the book, for 'tis Just as 1 said
Full ot palo ghosts from a life that's dead.

TIIK KHROK THAT I.K1) TO TIIK CONVICTION
OF A SCOUNIHtKI-
On tlio afternoon of .Itiim 18, 1870,tlio
Hue Le cluse was startled by the report
that a murder lmd been committed at
No. 3!). At this number a retired hair
dresser had been occupying apartments,
and had lived in a very eccentric man
ner some eight years. lie was reported
to be very rich, and to have only one
relative, who had married, and who kept
an imitation jewelry shop in the Hue
Vivienne.
On tho day nicntiotiedthescrvanton en
tering the room of the old gentleman
found his lifeless form onthctloorinapool
of his own blood. The police were immc-
liately notified, and the authorities soon
arrived to make necessary examinations.
Shortlv after tho detective, Guilot, arri
ved, to whom the Commissioner of l'o
lice remarked:
"Your services will be needed. Guilot.
The criminal is known, and known in a
very positive fashion. The crime hav-
ng been committed, the assassin lied,
believing that the victim had expired.
Ho was mistaken. Tho unfortunate man
still lived. Summoning all his strength,
he dipped one of his lingers iu tho blood
that was Howing from his wound, and
wrote on the tloor his murderer s name.
Look!"
On the floor in lame scrawling letters
was written with blood : "Aguep."
"That," said tho Commissary, "is
the beginning of tho name of the old
man's nephew, of whom he was very
tond, and who is named Aguepont.
"The devil ! replied the detective.
"I don't suppose ho will try to deny
it," continued the Magistrate. "The livo
letters are an overwhelming charge
against him. Besides who profits by
the crime except the nephew? bee, noth
ing has been difcturbed to throw justice
on the wrong scent, and the coneiergo
says that ho was tho only person who
visited, the npartnients of the old 'man
last evening, he having recognized him
by the fact that his dog,a great favorite,
was with him."
That's plain," said Guilot ; "the fel
low is a fool."
While tlio Magistrate turned to cive
further directions to his cleik, the detec
tive proceeded to make au examination
of tho surroundings. Everything about
the room was in its place ; ho sign ot a
scuttle was apparent. Under a chair a
cork covered with green wax was found.
It had been used, atitl tlio wax portion
still showed marks of tho coikscrew;
but on the other end was a deep notch,
jvidently mado by some sharp instru
ment, llus, Guilot considering tho basis
of a clew, carefully placed in his pocket.
Approaching ttie corpse as it lay on
the tloor, he commenced a minute exam
matiou. I he instrument of the crime
must have been a poniard orja sharp
knife. Tho poor old man had been
slriio!: iu tlio throat and tho neck cut
from ear to ear. Then, looking at tho
hand, besmeared with blood, the detec
tive,startiiig back exclaimed.
"Great heaven! Look! I ho right hand
is perfectly clean the fingers of tho left
hand only arc stained with blood ! It
was not tho old man who traced theao
letters."
"And to think I didn't notice it." said
tho Magistrate, mournfully.
"Now, replica Guilot, "can wo imag
ine a murderer stupid enough to de
nounce himself by writing his name by
tho side of his victim !"
'It is plain," said tho .Magistrate, "that
Agiifpont is not tlio criminal Yvlio.thcn
is he? It is your duly, Guilot, to find
out."
llo paused. An ofliccr entered, who
addressing the Magistrate, said :
"lour orders are executed, .Monsieur.
Tho arrest lias been made. Aguepont has
conlessed everything.
"Wiiiui exclaimed ihiiioi, while vo
are endeavoring to prove Aguojiont's in
iiocenco he is conftssing his guilt."
Tho Commissary having gono through
the necessary forms required by law,
retired.
Then Guilot, calling the concierge bo
fore him, dieted from hint tho following
story, Tho old gentleman's name was
Louis Uigot. He was a peculiar old
man, of very regular habits. I Iu had
very few visitors m fact, hardly any ex
cent his nephew. M, Aiiionont. who
dined with him every Stitidny at the
neighboring restaurant. They wero
never known to havo oven a dispute, ex
cept an occasional squabble about
Mudamo Mane. Sho being tho wife of
M. Aguepont, and a very magnificent
creature, who, M. lligot slid, led her
husband by thu no jo. Ma lame Mario
and litr tuiclu had been at loggerheads
lor about a year, hho had wanted .M
Higot to lend Aguepont a thousand
francs to buy stock of a jeweler iu the
l'aluis ltoyal, but ho hud refused, saving
that they might do as they pleased will
ins loiittuo unci ins tieain, nu iiiruie
statcd that on the evening before only

his dog IJriino was with him.
I his was all that could he learned from
the coneiergo
' The detective then left the house and
hastened to tho Qua! ties Orfeorcs where
Aguepont was imprisoned, and ho was at
once admitted to tho prisoner. 1'ioin
him ho elicited nothing save a confession
of his guilt. Even then ho could not
dissuade himself but that there was some
mystery buried in this strango affair. Af
ter several unsticce sful attempts to be
wilder tho prisoner, tho detectivo asked:
"Where did you buy tho revolver vou
used to commit tho crime t"
"I had it in my possession for some
time." lie nnswercd.
"What did youtto with it afterward!"
"Threw it down tho outer boulevard."
"Search will be mado and it will be
found. Hut why did you let your dog
follow you f asked Guilot.
"What dog?
"Your dog liiuno."
Aguepont sank upon his cot and re
fused to speak further. After vainly try
ing to draw from the prisoner further
intormation Guilot departed, muttering
to himself:
Who knows 1 I have seen famous
actors in my time "
Leaving tho prison the detectivo turn.
cd his steps toward the Hue Vivienne,
Llctermiued to see .Madame Agiiepontand
obtain from her all sho might know con
cerning tho murder. First, ho determin
ed to find out in what estimation tho
Agueponts wero held by their neighbors.
From tho neighboring shop keepers
Guilot learned that Aguepont bore au
excellent character, and Madam's reputa
tion was above reproach. Not a breath
of slander assailed her good name.
"Strange," said the detectivo to him
self, "that such people should bo mixed
up in such nn atlair as this.
Having arrived at the shonovcr whoso
loor hung the sign, "Aguepont, Gold
and Imitation Jewelry," Guilot entered.
He was shown into the back shop, where
Madame sat attired in a deep mourning
lrcss. In her hand sho held a paper.
It was a 8iiiumons to appear at the I'alais
Justice beiore the examining ,Mugi-
trate.
Madame," said Guilot, "I am sent
here in the scrvieo of tho law. I am a
detective. As you know, your husband
has been arrested charged with the mur
der of M. Higot."
".Monsieur, she replied, "ho is inno
cent. Hut see, I have received this sum
mons. What can they want of mo ?"
"To obtain information which I hope
will prove your husband's innocence.
Don't look upon me as an enemy,inad-
ame. 1 wish to ascertain the truth. Will
you answer me frankly?"
"liuestion me, monsieur.
"You know.madariie," ho began, "that
last night at 11 o'clock M. Higot, your
husband's uncle was murdered."
Alas."
'Whore, was Monsieur Aguepont at
that hour?"
"My God! it is a fatality."
"Where did your husband, spend last
night?"
"llo went to one of our workmen who
had broken his word and failed to bring
'us an nrtiolo which wo were to sell to
day. You know we arc poor, and could
not aliord to lose a sale, no matter how
the profit. About 9 o'clock wo went out
and l accompanied him to au omnibus,
which ho entered beforo my eyes."
"Then your workman will bo ablo to
swear ho saw M. Aguepont at his hou-io
at 1 1 o'clock?"
"Alas, no "
"And why not?"
"Hecauso he had gone before my hus
band arrived."
"Hut tho coneiergo saw him ?"
"Our workman lives in a houso where
there is no concierge."
"At what time did your husband re
turn ?"
"A little after midnight."
"You thought ho had been absent
long ?"
"Oh, yes; I scolded him. Ho said that
trolling along he stopped at a cafo to
Itiuk a glass of beer. That was his
excuse.
"Was there nothing peculiar about
him?"
"Nothing."
Largo tears rolled down the pale
cheeks. Hut Guilot thought behind those
tears in tho depths of her bluo eyes he
could detect a gleam of joy.
"Could sho bo guilty,' ho thought.
"iSut where were you,inadame, during
the fatal evening while your husband
was on that useless errand ?"
"I was here,niousleur. I havo witness
es to provo it.
"Witnesses!"
"Yes, Monsieur. Tho evening was so
warm that 1 wanted somo ice cream, and,
not civing to eat alone, I sent my sit

"Then how do you explain his con
fession?"
"Ho is mad! ho is mad!" bhe exclaim
ed, sobbing aloud.
Alter addressing a tow words of con
solation to tho wite, the detectivo nsked
permission to examine thu house. To
this madamo readily assented. Examining
everything in both shops, Guilot asked
to bu shown to tho cellar. As ho enter

Guilot oxpi'cssinghimself satisfied. thev
then ascended to tho shop. Un enter
ing tho detectivo was met by tho dog,
who, snarling Bavagely, refused to let
him pass, tiiulot, to quiet him, called
"IJrtiuo, Uruuo.
the dog, snowing his teeth, diew
back.
"It is useless to call him," said Mad
amp. "Ho is not savngo j but ho obeys
only my husband and myself.
"W here was this dog last evening?
"I don't know," she stammered.
"Perhaps ho followed your husband,
"Why, yes : now I seem to recollect.
Tho detective, looking her straight in
thu eyes, said :
"lhoii,niadunio,ho is trained to follow
carriages ?"
Sho was bilent.
Not being ablo to nsctitain more,
Guilot withdrew. At a neighboring
1882
cafe, over a cup of coffee, ho reached tho
following solution of tho problem :
He was Hiiro that madamo had

was aware of the critne,atidconsciiitcntly

that he would not leave such incontro
vertible proofs behind. Who, then, was
the assassin t A man whom tho dog
would follow as it would its owners,sinco
the dog was at the Hue-Hecliiso on the
evening of tho crime. So it was somo
oho intimate with tho Agueponts. Ho
must hato thu husband, since ho hail

On tho other hand, ho must love tho
wife, since, knowing him, sho would not
give nun up, nt thu same time sacnhcing
uer husband, conclusion; .Madamo,be
lieing her reputation, undoubtedly had a
lover.
"Zounds!" ho saidto himself, "thedog
must bo utilized."
The clock struck I!. It was time for
Madame to depart for the Palais do Jus
tice. Going to tho door of tho cafe, he
saw her, after giving a few parting in
structions to thu little servant, leave her
shop. Hastily crossing the street, ho en
tered the shop. Tho little servant was
there alone.
"Where is Miidiino Aguepont ?" ho
asked.
"She has gone out, Monsieur."
"How unfortunate. How sorry poor
Madamo will be. Hut perhaps you can
take your mistress' place, little one. I
camo back for the address of the gentle
man she asked mo to vmt.
"Wnat gentleman" the servant asked.
"You know very well ; Monsieur
there, now, I have forgotten his name.
The gentleman tho dog obeys so well."
"Uh, you mean ..Monsieur Andre i '
"Yes, that's his name. You can cer

lives?"
"Oh, yes, ho lives in the Hue du Hot-
Dore, No. L'll."
Caught, muttered Gullet; then aloud:
"Thanks. You havo done madamo a
great service. Sho will be delighted.
Gond-by, little one."
ho saying tho detectivo hastened to
tho Palais do Justice, and, obtaining a
warrant, left at a breakneck speed for
the Hue do Hoi-Dore. In lifteen minutes
he was at tho door of No. 2!1.
Monsieur Andre," ho said to the con
cierge.
"Fourth tloor, light hand door."
"Is ho in?"
"Yes."
"I must treat Monsieur Andre to a bot

"1 he one opposite.
In a second the detective was in tho
place indicated.
"A bottlo of wine, if you please the
green seal."
The wino was brought, and the cork
being examined it was found to be a fac
simile of tho one in tho detective's pos
session.
"Trapped," muttered Guilot.
It did not take him long to leave the
shop and reach the fourth lloor. He
knocked at tho right hand door.
"Como in," said a voice.
The detectivo entered.
"I arrest you in tho name of the law."
The man turned livid.
"Are you playing a trick on mo?" ho
said.
"Don't bu childish. You wero seen to
leave M. Higot's room, and I have iu my
pocket the cork you used to prevent tlio
point of tho dagger from breaking.
"I am innocent !" exclaimed tho man,

About a year ago two farmers living
near that placu were convicted upon
strong circumstantial evidence, and
upon the positive lilcntihcation ot the
prosecutor, of committing an outrageons
assault upon him, and sentenced to ten
years' penal servitude. Tho prosecutor
lias just died, leaving a full confession
that tho injuries wero inflicted by him
self in tho hopo of extorting money from
tho accused persons and their friends.
