“Truth Ntnager than Fiction."’
In >San Francisco, on tbe north: side of Fob
wm street, overlooking Mission Bay, stands a
palatial residence.
Tbe interior of this bouse is even more
beautiful .than its exterior, every apartment
being in. its/way a gem of magnificence and
refinement.
The library especially, realizes the most per
fect Ideal'of ah elegant and cultured home.
And yet, at tbe moment we look in upon
bihi—one August afternoon, as* he occupied
his library—tbe proprietor of all this wealth
appeared of all men the most miserable.
He was Mr. Morton Preble, for tnany years
a leading banker of San Francisco. _
|t was in vain that the broad bay-window at
the south end of the room had been opened,
giving ingress-to the sunshine and the fra
grance of rare flowers—in vain that the walls
were lined with richly carved book-cases and
paintings—in vain that soft couches and _ luxu
rious chairs had been gathered around Him.
He was wretched.
; He lay on a sofa, in the depths of the great
bay-window, the wreck of a once powerful
man. His figure was thin and gaunt; his face
white as marble; his eyes having an expression
Of woeful apprehension, of harrowing anxiety,
of dreadful expectancy.
It was evident at a glance that no merely
physical ailment had made him wliat'he was.
By what withering secret, by \yhat destroying
attliction, had he been thus. agonized ? thus
haunted ? thus hunted? he so iioblq and good!
he so wealthy and cjjstinguislied ! -
As he moved restlessly upon his luxurious
cushions the pretty clock on the mantel-piece
struck five, every stroke seeming to fall like a.
hammer upon the heart of the nervous invalid.
He aroused himself, struggling feebly to a
sitting posture.
“Ob, will this fatal day, never, never pass ?”
he murmured; “ nor bring ns relief?”
Noticing with a nervous start that, lie was
alone, he touched a bell upon a table before
him, and called :
“ Helen, Helen! where are you ?”
Before the echoes of his voice had died out a
step was heard, and his wife entered his pre
sence.
“ I left you only for a moment, Morton,”
she said, advancing to the banker’s side. “ You
were dozing, I think. I wished to send for the
doctor!”
She was a beautiful woman, of some six-aud
thirty years, graceful, With broad .white brows,
and loving eyes, in which tbe brightness and
sweetness of a sunshiny nature were still per
ceptible, under a grief and anxiety no less poig
nant than that evinced by her husband.
“ The doctor !” he echoed, balf-reproachfully.
“ Yes, dear,” she said, in a calm and cheer
ful voice, as she drew a chair to the Side of the.
sola, and sat down, stroking the corrugated
forehead of the invalid with a magnetic touch.
“He will be here immediately. Your last ner
vous crisis alarmed me. You may become
seriously ill!”
Mr. Preble bestowed an affectionate look
upon liis wife, but said despondently:
“The doctor! He cannot ‘minister to a
mind diseased!’ -Oh, if these long hours would
only pass! If I only knew what the day has
yet in store for us!”
“ Look up, Morton!” enjoined Mrs. Preble,
with trustful glance upward through
the open window at the blue sky, and as if
looking beyond the azure clouds therein.
“ Let us appeal from' the injustice and wicked
ness of earth to the goodness and mercy of
Heaven!”
The banker gave a low, sobbing sigh. .
“IccmnoMook up, Helen,", he answered,
with a passionate tremor in his voice—“only
down, down at the grave that is opening before
me!”
Mrs. Preble continued to stroke his forehead
softly, while she lifted her pale face to the sun
light streaming into the apartment.
“Look up, Morton—always look up!” she
again enjoined upon the invalid. ~'“.During all
these fourteen years of agony I have not once
doubted either the goodness or tire justice of
Heaven. ‘Blessed are they that mourn; for
they shall be comforted.’ I believe that we
shall yet rejoice more keenly than we have
mourned, and that we shall come to a glorious
day of joy beyond all this long night'of sor
row!”
The face of the invalid lighted up with an
answering glow) and he murmured :
. “Glorious faith ! My wife, you are indeed a
blessed comforter! Perhaps, after all, you are
right.” ' ■
A knock resounded on a side-door at this
juncture, and the next moment Dr. Hutton,
the family physician, for whom- Mrs. Preble
had sent, entered the room.
He was an old man! portly in figure, with
white hair and beard, but with a fresh and
ruddy complexion, a pair of shrewd bine eyes,
and with an exuberant boyishness of manner
that sat well upon'him- He bad a kind heart
and a clear head. lie approached tbe sofa,
after greeting tbe husband and wife, and lifted
tbe thin restless hand of the invalid, feeling his
pulse.
“ Quite a high fever,” lie said, after, a brief
pause. “ Worrying again, eb, -Mr. Preble?
You are wearing yourself out. Medicine will
do you no good so long as your mind is in its
present condition. I must give you an opiate—”
“ Not now, doctor,” interposed the banker.
“ I cannot—must not—sleep to-day! I need
to be broad awake now, for 1 cannot tell at. auy
moment wliat tbe next may bring forth. lam
looking for the culmination of all my years of
anguish—for the crowning agony of tbe whole.
Perhaps even now—All, what was that ?”
lie started up wildly, and then, as the sound
that had disturbed, him was not repeated, lie
sank back again on his cushions, pallid and
panting.
The doctor looked at Mr. Preble with an
anxious, questioning glance.
“It is tbe anniversary,” she replied, to Lis
unspoken inquiry—“the anniversary of our
loss.”
“All,yes,” said tbe doctor, “I remember.”
. “Yes, it’s another of those terrible days,”
cried tlie banker, in a hollow whisper. “Sit
down, doctor, and 1 will tell you the whole
• story. I can think of nothing else to-day,and
am almost wild with apprehension and anxiety.
Sit down.”
Dr. Hutton drew up a chair and seated him
self,his face expressing the double solicitude of
a friend and physician.
“You knew us fourteen years ago, doctor,”
, said Mr. Preble. “We lived then where we do
now, in a cottage on the site of this great man
sion. < There were but the three of us—Helen
and I, and our three-year old Jessie. And it
was fourteen years ago to-day that our little
Jessie was stolen from us.”
. “I remember it,” said the doctor soitly. “Yet
might she not have been lost, Mr. Preble ,?
She went out to play in the garden, if • I re
member rightly, and was never seen by you
again. She migbt ha've strayed away—”
- * “So'WKbougbt for a whole year, doctor,” in
terrupted the banker. “We never dreadied
that she had been stole*. We searched every
where for her, and offered immense rewards for
her recovery. I employed detectives, but all to
no purpose. When our little Jessie ran down
the steps into that flower-garden,” and he
pointed to the front of the house, “as if the
-. «arth had opened and swallowed her up, we
never saw her again.”
“She must have fonrjd the gate open, and
wandered out,” suggested Dr. Iluttou. “She
might have strolled down to the waters and
been drowned.”
Aflie banker fixed his burning eyes upbri the
physician’s face, and whispered:
“psaid we never saw the poor child again.
I did riot say we had not heard of her. She
'was lost on the ,9th of August, 1854. For a
year we thought her dead. But on the auni
vensary of.eur Joss we received a written mes
sage concerning her.”
“A message !” cried Dr. Hutton, starting.
“A mere scrawl—-a single line in a hand evi-

dently disguised,” said the banker. “Here .it
■ ■■ ;v
He produced a dingy scrap of paper front a
drawer in the table* und hefd.it up. to the view
of the physician, who l'egd as follows:
“August!), 1855. Jessie, ha, ha! Jessie.”
Dr. Ilutton looked, with a puzzled air, from
the scrap of paper, which he turned oyer and
over, to the countenance of the hanker.
“I can make nothing of this, he. declared.
“It is merely a date, with the name of your
lest daughter. It tells me nothing.”
“Nor did it us, at first,” said Mr.
Preble. “Then that name and that date, with
the demon .laugh Connecting them, set us to
thinking. A whole year we agonized over the
dreadful problem, and then we received another
message, which you shall see:” t ...
He thrust a second slip of paper, identical m
shape and appearance with the first, bet ore the
gaze of Dr. Hutton, who read it aloud: r
“August 9,1850. Torn- Jessie still'lives.”,
The physician started, as if electrified.
“Ah! this is something definite—something
decisive,” he muttered. “It Convinced you
that your daughter was still living.”
“Yes, doctor,” said Mr. Preble, “ and every
anniversary of that day has brought us some
message. The disappearance of the child,myste
rious as it is, docs not seem to me half so
strange as that the villain who took her away
could contrive to communicate with us every
year since, and always on a particular day
the anniversary of that on which she was stolen
without, our heiug able to discover who he
is. And a still greater wonder to me is wliat
can be bis motive. It seems incredible. If it
was stated in a novel many people would
not believe it. But ‘Truth is stranger than
fiction.’”
Mrs. Preble drew from her husband s breast
pocket his note-book, opened it to the' proper
page, and presented it to the physician.
Dr. Ilutton adjusted liis spectacles, glanced
over the page, and then slowly read tbe group
of entries aloud. Tbe entry tbe first year is ag
follows:
“August .0,1855. Jessie, ha, ha! Jessie”
And tbe next year it is—
“ August 0, 1850. Your Jessie still lives
And tbe next— , '
“August 0, 1857. She is in flood hands!
And tbe next—
“ August 9, 1858. She is -well as ever!
Aiid’tlie next— , •
“August 0,1859. 7 sav: her-yesterday !”
And tbe next —
“August 9,1800. She's (/rowing rapidly !
And the next— 1 '
“August 9,1801. She continues to do ivell 1
And the next— «
“August 9,1802. I've seen her again 7”
And the next—
“ August 9,1800. She's becoming,a womanr
And the next —
“August 9,1801- Your child is thirteen!”
And the next—
“ August 9,1805. She's lovelier than ever!”
And the next —
“August 0,1800. ■ She's really damning /”
And the lest year it is—
“ August 9, ISO - My reward is at hand!”
And what sllall we' get to-day! .
The physician looked up" and fixed Ins
thoughtful gaze upon the bereaved husband
and wife. ,
“How did these messages come to you?” he
demanded. - ,
“Invariably by post,” replied Mr. Preme.
“Usually to tbe house, but sometimes to tbe
office!”
“And you have never seen tlieir author ?”
“Never!”
“The last of them is dated, I see, a year ago
to-day!”
“Yes, yes,” faltered the banker, “and the
time has come for another message. ' This is
the Otli.of Augnst, 1S08!”
“I see,” said Dr. Hutton. “Arid this is the
secret of your terrible excitement! You are
expecting to receive to-day another of these
strange, messages!”
There was a brief silence. Mrs. Preble’s
hand fluttered in its task, and her face grew
very pale. The banker breathed gaspingly.
The physician regarded them both in friendly
svmpathv.
‘“ We shall hear of her again to-day,” said
Mr. Preble; “ and what will the message be ? ”
The mother averted her face. Her brave
heart faltered as that question echoed in her
soul. . ..
“The writer of these letters is unquestionably
the abductor ot your child!” said Dr. Hutton.
“Have you any suspicion as to his identity?”
“Not the slightest,” said Mr. Preble. “Wa
have puzzled over the problem for many years,
but we cannot guess who he is.”
“Think,” said the doctor. “Have you no
enemy ? Ido not mean people with whom
vou are not friendly—every stirring man has
plenty of these —but a downright enemy! Is
there no man whom you knew in the East
who hated you? No"one against whom you
were called upon to testily'—no one whom you
possibly injured ?”
The banker shook Ills head. He had asked
himself all these questions repeatedly.
“I have no such enemy, Doctor,” he an
swered with sincerity of voice and manner.
“And Mrs. Preble ?” suggested the Doctor,
turning to her. “Have you no rejected suitor
who might, be revengeful enough to desolate
your home ?” ' . ,
“No,” said the lady. “I was married early.
Morton was my lirst lover!”
“This is strange—very strange!” muttered
the Doctor. “You are not conscious of having
an enemy in the world, and yet you have an
enemy—a hidden foe—a fiend in human form
—who is working out agaiiist you a fearful ha
tred! And you have not the slightest suspi
cion as to whom he is?”
,“Not the slightest,” declared the banker.
“Not the slightest!” echoed Mi 1 ?., Preble.
“My husband had a step-brother who might
have been capable of this infamy—but he is
dead!”
“The handwriting is not familiar ?”
“No. It is merely a rude scrawl, as you
see,” said the banker. “It suggests nothing—
except that it is evidently disguised!”
Again there was a profound-silence^
“Oui’child is 17 years old now,” at length
murmured Mrs. Preble, her voice trembling.
“She is on the threshold of womanhood. No
doubt, during all these years, she has yearned
lor us, wherever she may be, as we have
yearned for her.’
‘“ But where is she?” asked the physician—
and now his voice was broken by his deep
sympathy with the agonized parents. “ Where
can she be?” .
“Heaven only knows,” answered the mother.'
“ Perhaps in Sari .Francisco— pei'liaps in some
rude lmt in the interior, w ith some obscure
farmer, 1 and under a name that is not licr’s! I
think her abductor would have carried her to
some lonely region of the interior, among the
valleys and mountains. Yet I never see a
young girl in the streets without turning to
look at her. 1 never hear a girlish voice with
out listening eagerly, half fancying that it may
prove the voice of my lost Jessie!”
" “ Oh, pitying heaven!” sighed Dr. Hutton,
dashing a flood of tears from his eyes. “ Will
this long agony never be over?”
“We hope so, and even believe so,” an
swered Mrs. Preble, with the firmness of an
unfaltering trust in God’s inercy. “ The last
message we received from our enemy seems to
point to some kind of a change.”
“True,” assented Dr. Hutton, looking at
the message in question," “ It, is -unlike the
others. It says that', his ‘reward is at hand.’
He means either that he intends to marry
your daughter, or that he intends to demand
money of you for bringing her back—or both.”
“We shall soon know,” said Mrs. Preble,
with forced calmness. “To-day we shall have
another message, no doubt. What will it be?”
The banker turned restlessly on his sofii, and
iris face grew even paler.
“Whatever it is, let it come!” lie murmured.
“Anything can be borne better than this awful
suspense. • Let it come!”
As if his impatient words had precipitated a
crisis, a step was heard ok the walk at this,
inomejita-aiid a ring at the door followed.
“Another message!” breathed the banker* } ?
A servant soon enleieojj bearing a letter,
which .he'extendcd to Miv.lseble, fiayjng: v>
“'J be bearer is in the bqjlb”
With- an eager gaze, glanced at
tlie superscription of the missive. l ,
“It is fi-oin/rimhe faltered.
He tore tbo erivelopd open.
It contained a slip of paper, of well-known
shape and appearance, upon which Was
scrawled a single line, in an equally well-,
known handwriting, which the banker ex
hibited to his wife and the physician.
-This line was as follows:
“August 0,1808. At six T will call /”
A shock of wonder and honor shook the
three simultaneously.
“Will call!” cried Mr. Preble, starting to his
feet, and glaring wildly around.
“Is coming here ?” cried Mrs. Preble, also
arising.
“It seems so,” said Dr. Hutton, bis eyes
again reverting to the message. “Ho will be,
here at six o’clock—and see, it is six already!”
Even as lie spoke the clock on the mantel
piece commenced striking the appointed hour,*
and at that instant heavy footsteps resounded
in the ball, approaching the library,
•“It is he!” cried the doctof, also arising.
As the last stroke of the hour resounded, the'
door lcadwg from the ball again opened.
One long and horrified glance cast the banker
and bis wife in that direction, and then she fell
heavily to the floor. ,
Her senses had left her. The above we pub

of this story will'bc found only in the New

Under the present provision of that instrument

Bat if the coming Legjslature should recom
mend sucli an amendment, the proposition Will

appoints a special election, so thaF'the people
may vote upon it. If they then refuse to gdopt
it, a similar proposition cannot again be made
for five years. Therefore, the present members,
even if they do move in the matter, will have
to be content with the pay they already receive.
