THE night clerk made a long argu ment to the effect that nearly every celebrated murder mystery had been, solved at last, but old Harney Patton, the house detective, refused to be con vinced. "Your theory flint 'murder will out may be all right in what you call cele brated crimes," said the old fellow, "but. my experience is that it won't wash n-s regards the numberless minor cases that are neither mver solved or in which the culprit is never pun ished. And it isn't always-the fault of the police, cither. They may be moral ly and most reasonably certain of the puilt of a man or a woman and yet be utterly unable to prove it to the it isfnetion of a jury. There are so many obstacles in the form of court practice, fn many complicated hindrances in the technicalities of courts, that, to me, the wonde1 is, so many criminals are punished. ' "I remember the first ease I ever 1 worked on and what a disappointment It was to find myself balked at last by the fixed requirements of that judicial machinery that is supposed to be inex orable in the pursuit of all wrong-do ers. I wns sent up from the city to the town of Fordham, which had just been . shocked by a rather singular midnight murder. The victim was a married woman nnmed Celia Kordyce, who had 1 recently moved into the neighborhood j end wns living in a pretty two-story cottage .at the edge of town, with her . fiuslmnd and their only child, a daugh- ter. It wfinn that he had been detained till a late hour at his store, and, having walked homeward, was. within a block ' of his cottage when he heard cries of I murder, nnd, running forward, snw j Bertha, his daughter, in her night- ffown, standing in the front veranda screaming for help. "She excitedly exclaimed that a bur glar must have gotten into the house and killed Mrs. Fordyce while she slept. I it was nearly ten o clock that morning- when I reached the house, glad to find that the authorities of Fordham had taken charge of the place and that the house and its content had been kept in the exact condition prevailing dur ing the night of the crime. I learned that Mrs. Fordyce' body had been, found on the floor of the back parlor nearly six feet from the bed which sh had occupied; thnt a Winchester rifle, the muzzle in heT hand had been found beside the body. An examination of the body and of the room showed that two shots had been fired both from the rifle. One. lodged in the woodwork of the bed, just above the pillow, nnd the other had passed through the wom an's heart, and was found under rhe ekin near the epinal column. "Fordyce told me that the rifle had always stood in the closet of the room occupied by himself and his wife. That since his coming to Fordham, it had never been out of it leather ease. It was evident that the murderer had found the weapon, taken it out of its case and turned it upon the awaken ing woman. Was there another weap on in the house? There had been, he eald a pistol which was always kept loaded under his or his wife's pillow. Where was it? Nobody knew. I ques tioned Mis Bertha, who was a demure, rather comely girl of perhaps 17. She had been asleep in her room, which was the hall room on the second floor. The first shot had awakened her and she remembered sitting up In bed t o listen. Hearing no further disturbance, but quite frightened, she got up and bolted her door on the inside. Then shebeard a second shot and a moment later the sound as of a body falling, then a rush of footsteps up the carpeted stair and back through the hall leading the length (ii the house. It had been some minutes, she thought, before she 'pained courage to light the gas. Then she nailed down over the balustrade, but, petting no answer, came Into th hnll, lighting each gas jet as she went, till she was In the reception hall down stairs. From there she saw her moth er, face-down, on the floor. Unlocking the front door, which was fastened rith a Yale lock and on the latch, U went out on the veranda and began to cream. Then her father had come running. Thnt was all either Fordyce or his daughter could tell about the matter, "I went back through the upstair hall and found the window at theend raised about two feet, I looked out and saw on the tin roof of the little summer kitchen below a leather rifle case. Then I searched the whole house from cellar to attic, but found no sign of the missing pis-tol. No roblnry had been done, because Fordyce Identified everything of vnlue, end even showed me about $.100 In bills, his wif A pin money, which wns tucked enrelessly into an old, painted or gilded gourd on the dresser. I wns puzzled about the pistol's disappearance, but concluded thnt the robber had secured that flrsit, hnd probably awakened Mrs. Fordyce in that wny nnd made off after the murder with the revolver in his pock et. Yet how or why, having secured the pistol, the intruderhnd found time or cnuse to unease the rifle and use it in preference to the smaller, handier gun, I couldn't figure out. That rob bery had been the motive, I didn't doubt for an instant, but when I exam ined the ground about the cottage, though it. was quite muddy from the rnln of the night before. 1 could find no trace of the escaping house-breaker. I made sure thnt everything had been locked except that one window, and It seemed ns plain ns dny thnt the mur derer must hnve climbed in over the kitchen roof nnd out by the same route. What hnd prompted him to carry the rifle ense thnt fnr? How hnd he got from the roof of the summmer kitchen to the distant bnck fence without leav ing a print of his footsteps? There wns neither pavement nor walk in the yard, for the cottage was new nnd the bare clay about it was soft and un trodden. At either-side of the cottage wns a bare area at least 2.1 feet wide. There were no footprints anywhere. Where w as the pistol? I searched that house a dozen times that dny, even un folding the elenn linen in the closets nnd rummnging in Bertha's, trunk, to the great anger of her grtef-stricken father. Rut it. wns not to be found. I spent the night proving to my own sat isfaction thnt Fordyce had actually been nt his store till half an hour be fore the murder must hove occurred. Nobody knew much about the family, lie had come with his wife six months before nrid had bought the Ferris' stove nnd t inwnre business. He seemed to be a fine mnn, a trifle younger than his wife, but apparently happy. "The women who hnd met her all spoke well of Mrs. Fordyce. Iterthn, the daughter, had come home from boarding school nt Ogdensburgin May. It wns about June 10 thnt. the murder occurred. Now, nfter finding out as much as I could, I made up my mind, nnd it cost me many a twinge to do so, I made up my mind that Ilertha had killed her own mother! It wns such a preposterous, monstrous suspicion thnt I was ashamed of it myself and, of course, dared not mention it to any one else, at least, until I hnd some sound evidence. She wns apparently a very emotional, cultivated young girl and T couldn't think of the least shad ow of motive sufficient to urge her to so hateful and unnatural a crime, but the facts, few but adamantine, told me, in spite of myself, that she had done it. Now in a case like that, where the evidence is wholly circumstantial and nt that, far from final, it is abso lutely necessary to find or supply a motive, I was so sure of my theory thnt 1 spent a week at the Ogdensburg school trying to find out all about Rer thn, her disposition, vagaries, regard for her home and her mother. Every thing was favorable to thegirl. There was not a hint of criticism upon which I might fasten the thrend of justifica tion for my suspicion. I went sudden ly back to Fordham nnd searched the Fordyce house again. I don't know what moved me to it, but I got, out on the tin roof, and noticing n wnrped place where the metal had raised about an Inch from the level, I thrust in my hand and pulled out the missing pistol that had been stolen from under Fordyce's pillow! "Meanwhile the coroner's jury had laid the crime at the door of "party'or parties unknown" and, certain as I felt that this strange girl must have abstracted her parents' weapon in the dnvtime or perhaps during a previous night, nnd had gone about the murder with premeditated and horrible cool ness, I wns powerless to reopen the case, for I knew that, unless I could supply a reasonable motive for the In credible crime, I would be laughed at So I passed up the whole matter. "Never did anything about it ?" won. dered the night clerk; "No, Never heard of the Fordyces again till two years ago. I was visit ing an old sfster of mine in Boston. I wns sitting on the front stoop one summer evening when I snv I ordyco nnd his daughter pass, arm in arm. asked my sister if she knew them and she said their name was Ballard, that Mrs, Kelly, who lived across the street, had known the woman when she was a girl. I went over to see Mrs Kelly that evening and she said that Ballard's 'real name' was Fordyce, but that he had changed it perhaps on ac count of his first wife's murder up at Fordhnra. "And who Is this young woman living with him? Is she his daughter?" "'No,' said Mrs. Kelly, 'she's his step-daughter. You see he married a widow named Celia something, when her child was about 12 years old. The mother was killed somehowlby a bur glar, I believe, and a couple of years afterward he turns in and marries the daughter.' " Chicago Record-Herald.
