Better Than llo Deserved.
'Anna looked beseechingly at Frank.
The time Oiud come when, if he could
render any service, he could exact a
heavy price. Not that the girl was con
vinced of her lover's RUllt. ' Far from it.
But she was thoroughly frightened, and
a frightened woman will take. any help
that offers.
Behind Mulligan's back Frank formed
the word "wait" with his lips.
Maxwell was pule, but he showed lit
tle feur.
"Wouldn't It be a good idea to mea
sure my rubbers; they'.re in the hall,!' he

"Excellent," said the detective; and
he went to get them.
lie measured them carefully.
"They're not the ones," he said at last.
"The others were wider. I congratulate
you. "v
Anna had tuken Maxwell's hand, and
had thrown one of ilier arms over his
shoulder. As the detective turned away
to replace the rubbers in the hull, the
girl drew down her lover's head, anil
kissed his lips.
Ames trembled with jealousy, but the
next lnstunt he recovered himself, and
darted a sudden, meaning glance at
Anna.
Then he took Maxwell's hand.
"I am heartily glad of this favoroble
turn In your affairs," he suld. "It has
been an awful strain upon us all. For
my part I am quite worn out. I um
going home. Good night. And good
night to you, Mr. Mulligan."
The detective had Just re-entered the
room. Anna accompanied Frank into
the hall.
"Keep them here half an hour, at all
hazards; and remember your promise,"
he whispered. "I tell you the man's
lost unless I save him."
lie left the house. Anna, terribly
agitated by his last words, returned to
the parlor, and tried to carry out his In
structions. But for some reason which
'What Have You Got Under Your Coat?"
she could not understand, the detective
was determined to thwart her plans.
He succeeded in getting Maxwell away
from the house some minutes within
the 'time which Frank had set.
They went to the doctor's house. No
one lived there but Maxwell and an old
woman who acted as his housekeeper.
The detective insisted upon going in.
He said that he had urgent matters to
discuss which he had not dared to men
tion before Anna.
They entered together. There was
only a dim light In the hall, but, it was
enough to reveal to the keen eyes of the
detective the form of Frank Ames, who
seemed to have been descending the
stairs Just as they came in, and also en
deavored to avoid being seen by dart
ing into the unlighted parlor.
The detective followed him, striking a
match as he did so. He lighted the
lamps on the table and turned to Ames.
"Good evening, again, Mr. Ames," he
said, cheerfully. "I didn't expect to see
you so soon.
"I came to have a talk with Robert,"
responded Ames; "and I'll tell you
frankly that I didn't want you to know
anything about It."
"Sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Ames,"
Mulligan replied, "and still more sorry
to ask embarrassing questions. What
have you gof Under your overcoat?"
"The remainder of my clothing and
most of my body," rejoined Ames; "but
I don't know that It's any of your busi
ness." With a movement as quick es a flash,
and doubly surprising because of the
man's slow and somewhat indolent
mannorL the lntedtlve rsprnng upon
Ames and wrested his overcoat open.
A pair, of rubbers fell to the floor.
Mulligan seized them and measured
them with the minutest care.
"Where did you get these?" he de
manded. Ames sank into a chair. He rolled
tils eyes appeallngly toward Maxwell,
who said not a word. He seemed to be
etrlcken dumb.
"It's all over. Bob," groaned Amos.
"I did my best for you for her wake."
"Pretty shrewd work, Mr. Ames, but
very dangerous," said the detective.
"It's a crime, you know. You guessed
he'd have the right paJr of rubbers in
his house and you came to get them.
.Very good; where are they?"
"In a closet in his bedroom upstairs."
"Well, this completes the case. I ar
rest you, Robert Maxwell, for the mur
der of Charlotte Warren."
Ten minutes later, Frank Ames
paused for a moment before the house
f Itev. Eliot Warren. The lower pnrt
of the house was dark, but there was a
light In a Window of the second story,
and, as he looked, a shadow., passed
across the curtain.
"Shall I;wln'her?" he murmured. "Is
it possible that my life Is to be worth
something after all?"
It couldn't have been a very happy
life to look back upon, for he shuddered,
as he turned away. ;
At ten) o'clock the njext .monnlnff,
Frank Ames received a message from
Dr. Maxwell, earnestly requesting him
to come to the doctor's. 'house. He lost
no time In complying. . The physic-Inn
and the detective sat together. Both
were -smoking, and both very much .at
their ease. There was little to indicate
that they were prisoner and warden,
except the extremely Incongruous addi
tion of a large revolver to the articles

of luxury with which a little smoking
table at the detective's right hand was
laden.
"Dr. Maxweil wished to speak to you,"
or rather he wishes me to do so. You
have done the beBt you could to atave off
the 'inevitable, and . you' have other
claims which entitle you to be the first
one to hear the extraordinary history of
this crime which will now be laid before
you. In the first place, your brother's
body has been found again."
"Where is it?" '
"In the back room of Cnpt. Henry
Thompson's undertaking shop where It
was taken by the captain at my direc
tion last night. You see I was strictly
within the facts when I said I did not
remove it.
"Here is another fact: Of course, it
seemed probable when the body was
found in this town, that it had reached
here in that coilin, but that Is not rue.
Medical examination has shown that
Edward Ames has not been dead more
than forty-eight hours.
"Fact No. 3 The mysterious person
who conveyed the body to the old Max
well house has been found, und lr.
Maxwell is not the man. The man's
name was Ames."
"What?"
"Edward Ames. In short, he walked
there. Those rubbers were his. There
Is no possible question about It. The
prints of nails In his shoes are to be dis
cerned on the inside of the rubbers.
Now how did this extraordinary thing
happen? Why there can't be two ex
planations. When a dying man goes to
a doctor's house why does he do it?
Because he knows he'll die if he doesn't
get treatment. You see Ned Ames
didn't know- that DZ 'Maxwell had
moved. He went there to throw himself
on the doctor's mercy, and ask his help.
I'd like to see you find any other expla
nation. "Perhaps you'll say that he might
have been simply seeking shelter. That
won't answer, lie had shelter, and I
know it. I worked Horace Kiddle's tip
down to that. He saw Eddie in the
woods. Now, a man can't live outdoors
In Maine at this season of the year.
Knowing that obvious fact, I asked my
self, and also several other people who
were beter informed, what shelter there
was In those woods. And I learned
about that hut of spruce logs which you
and your brother built so long ago, but
built so well that It's weather-proof
yet.
"I went there and found traces of
Eddie, but I didn't find him. Then I
came back to town, and on my way it
was then evening, for I had waited sonic
time in the hut I happened to Bee you
coming out of the old Maxwell house.
Then I went in, and you know what I
found. In the first place, that you'd en
tered by an upstairs window, which was
wholly unnecessary, for the lock of the
fiont door had been picked. Ily whom?
Why, a child could answer that ques
tion. Your brother was an adept at
picking locks.
"Why did he do It? Because he'd
rung the bell and failed to And anybody.
He must have supposed that Dr. Max
well was out. He couldn't wait out
there in the snow. It was then ten
o'clock of Thursday night. I know that
by the condition of his foot-print In the
substratum which was then forming In
to ice. He preferred to wait for the
doctor inside. He picked the lock; got
into the hall; fell on the floor and died
there.
"You see he'd been sick of diphtheria
In Boston. He was getting a little the
best of it when he had to skip. The ex
ertion and exposure were too much for
him. . He was dying In that hut In the
woods and he knew it.
"Now, then, if he died in the hall, as
the marks In the dust show me, how did
his body get Into the cellar? Why, you
carried it there. Nobody else could have
done It. Nobody else had any' motive.
Your motive was to throw suspicion on
Dr. Maxwell. How did you know that
NEW YORK CITY MERCHANT.
HOW HIS LIFE WAS SAVED.
From the New York Catholic News.'
No one would think to look nt Rich
ard B. Brown a commission merchant,
of No. 206 Washington streit, !New
York city, that for six weeks he had
suffered In ngony In his bed and that
physicians had said,lt was Impossible
lor mm to regain nis neaitn.
But now he Is bnck In his office, vig
orous and hearty. He regards Dr.
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy as
the savior of his life. The story Mr.
Brown tells Is remarkuble:
"For several years," said Mr. Brown
to a reporter the other day, "I suffered
from inflammation and ulceration of
the bladder, a most stubborn disease.
My family physician was unable to re
lieve me. At the advice of friends I
consulted specialists, and they all
failed to do me any good. All this time
I was growing worse. My capacity for
work deserted me, and at last I whs
compelled to take to my bed.
"My mother-in-law had heard of Dr.
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, and she
asked me to give It a trial. I had been
confined to my bed for five weeks and I
admit that I didn't think there was
much chance of getting out of It. Well,
I tried Favorite Remedy. There seemed
to be a change that surprised me. In n
week I wns able to get out of bed and
go around the house, and In a short
time I recovered completely. Today I'm
as well as ever and what's better yet
I feel that I am permanently cured.
can work .sixteen or eighteen hours a
day now and not be broken up a bit
To Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy Is
all the credit due."
Favorite Remedy ranks, with the
medical profession) us the most perfect
of all blood and nerve medicines. It
restores the liver to a healthy contll
tlon, and cures the worst cases of con
stipation. It Is a" certain cure for all
diseases, peculiar to females, and af
fords great protection from attacks thnt
originate In change of life. It cures
scrofula, salt rheum, rheumatism, dys
pepsia, all kidney, bladder and urinary
diseases, gravel, diabetes and Brlght's
disease.
In this last disease It has cured whers
all else failed. Any druggist can sup
ply It ait one dollar a bottle.
Eddie was In that house? Why, he
must have left a message in. some se
cret cranny of that old log hut.- You
went there. The snow tells me that.
"Now, we've cleared your brother's
case all up. He didn't murder the girl
because he was too sick to raise a hand
against her.
"Don't you dare to move or open) your
mouth, Frank Ames, till I get through
with you. I'm a good, quick shot, and
you're fair game.
"It was a ultck trick, taking his rub
bers off, and slicker still to bring them
here, and wait for us to catch you with
them. Now, of course all this clears
Dr. Maxwell, and if it does what be
comes of you? Why, you're my prison
er, that's all. Now, perhaps you won
der why I arrested the doctor last night.
Well, I did it so that you'd keep quiet
and give me' a little more lme.
"By he way, I've had some slight tips
from Boston this morning, and I made
up my mind who was the head of the
thieves' gang to which your brother be
longed. You were the man. I've also
found out where that poor girl lived
in Boston; and a man who looke'd very
much like you used to visit her.
"Knowing all these things, It Is easy
enough to see what happened to her
down here. But what did she come
here for? That's the only point that
Isn't clear. Of course, I can guess at it,
but I'd like cold facts, and for that rea
son I'll make a bargain with you. You'll

floor.
remember the I.ynde street Job In Bos
ton. Well, they hang folks In Massa
chusetts and they don't In Maine. You
tell me all about this case, and I give
you my word of honor that I'll let you
be tried here, instead of taking you
buck. Is tl a bargain?"
Frank Ames' white lips moved, but no
words came from them.
"Doctor," said the detective, "have
you a drop of brandy? It'll do him
good."
The wretch swallowed the spirits
greedily and revived somewhat.
"It's a bargain," he said, "though I
deny that Lynde street job. But I'm
dont' up. There Is no hope for me, and
I might as well speak out, for at least I
wish to deny that I mean to murder
that poor g'lrl.
"You ure light In all that you have
said. It was 1 to whom she fled. She
thought It was simply a secret mar
riage. I deceived her by the usual sto
ries. I had another wife living and
Charlotte found It out too late. She
was afraid to come home then. Let me
pass over all that. Her story Is too
common, I suppose. Of course 1 wearied
of her, but I would have provided
for her always, and would have kept
her near me, iif I had not learned to
love her sister. That was two years
ago, and from that moment I schemed
to be lid of Charlotte.
"She was wholly under my Influence.
I Intended to use her to break Maxwell's
engagement with Anna. My plan was
to have Charlotte come home and refuse
to tell her story. Then I would have
thrown ithe blame on Maxwell.
"It suited my convenience to bring
her here when I sprung that plot to
save my brother from arrest. Charlotte
came by means which I provided. She
went to her father's house, and looked
In upon him through the window. She
could not, bear to face him. She re
turned to me nt my father's house. I
feared what she would do, und so I
drugged my father lest he should see
her.
"When she came back I took her to
the room where lay the coffin. I had re
moved my father in his stuior to an
other room. Charlotte and I quarreled.
I tried to force her to carry out her In
tention of going to her father, and
somehow I don't know how I let her
ste the real secret, that 1 loved Anna.
Anna.
"Her wrath was terrible. In an In
stant she would have alarmed the
house. I sprang upon her to stifle her
screams for I knew she would scream
In a second. She fell with my weight
against her, and her head struck one of
the heavy metal handles of the coffin. I
had no Idea that she was much hurt.
My horror and remorse were terrible
when I found that she was dead.
"Then the scheme of hiding the body
came to me. I wrenched open the coflln;
1 took out the paper books with which
It was weighted and burned then! In
the fire; I put her body In and closed
the coilin as best I could. That is the
whole story. Do you believe me?"
"I do." said Mulligan, "and I will keep
my word. My cuiiosoty, I think, has
saved your neck. Is there anything
more, Dr. Maxwell?"
"Nothing. May I go to Anna now?
I must have her help In breaking the
news to this wretched creature's pa
rents." "My mother's! boyond 'knowing It,
thank God," Bald Ames. As for my fa
ther, he Is a man of Iron. He can bear
anything."
He spoke so calmly that even the ex
perienced detective wus deceived, and
believed that this was the confession of
a despairing and beaten man.
But Frank Ames was not (hat kind of
a man, by any meuns. He was watch
ing his chunce. As Maxwell turned to
leave the room the detective's atten
tion wns distracted for a moment. It
was time enough for the desperate
criminal.
In a flash he had leaped upon Mulli
gan, and had got his hands upon the
revolver. There wnB a struggle, violent,
but so 'brief that before Maxwell could
Interfere It was over. Ames had Becured
possession of the . revolver; he had
pulled the trigger Intending to send a
bullet through bis adversary's heart.
But the detcctlve'squlckness saved him.
He struck up the barrel of his pistol.
The weapon was discharged In an al
most perpendlculur position, and the
bullet, striking the murderer under the
chin, passed entirely through his head.
He was dead before his body touched
the floor. '
"Which was better than he deserved,"
obsorved Detective Mulligan, In relat
ing this adventure to the present writer.

THE AMERICAN WOMAN.
Max O'Kell Says Clever Things About
Iter, but Admits That She H the In.
crowned Queen of Creation.
Sly 'Max O'Rell, who Is Just now lec
turing In the west, realizes the im
portance of having the women on tils
side. Below are some of his choicest
recent compliments to the sex:
"A Frenchman views the sex as some
thing apart. We regard women as be
ings greatly superior to ourselves
which they are not. It Is all a matter
of education. Our boys do not grow up
with our girls as In America. To the
young Frenchman his sweetheart is an
object of mystery and reverence. And
it should be so. Men's ideals should
be something extraordinary,, apart
from everyday life and clothed In mys
tery. "The Frenchman's Ideal Is his wife.
In France woman Is a queen. Her em
pire over her children Is perfect; she
leads her husband in whatevt-r path
the chooses, and whatever path she
chooses is the' right path. And her
husband likes It because he doesn't
know ihe is being led. The politics of
matrimony Is a science inborn In our
women. They know that love lives on
stupid bits of trifles. Men have said
that matrimony kills .poetry. They are
fools. There Is no poetry out of matri
mony. Knglfsh Women Huve Big Feet.
"The womeid of France are the stabil
ity of Its wealth. Thpy are their hus
bands' business partners and the finan
ciers of every successful firm. When
they become widows they can take care
of themselves and. they do so. French
women are not frivolous, as has been
said. Because they make home attrac
tive Is no sign they think of nothing
else. French women are beautiful with
a beauty of their own. But the English
women! How different. The English
women have fresh complexions and
stately figures, a confident carriage
and big feet. When the English wo
man is beautiful her 'beauty Is incom
parable, title Is an angel of beauty. But
when she Is ugly
"In France we men are the slaves of
our womankind, but not such slaves as
are Americans. The American works
and works and works and the beads of
sweat upon his brow crystallze into
diamonds with which he decks his wo
mankind. The Frenchman's thraldom
Is threefold. His queens are his moth
er, his wife and his daughter, but he
rebels at his mother-in-law. If there
are any young men here tonight con
templuting matrimony and his mother
In-law Is contemplating living with
him, let me advise him not to hesitate
between matrimony and suicide get
married, shoot the mother-in-law."
As to Mrs. Jonathan.
After a five-minute interval the lec
turer turned his attention to "Mrs.
Jonathan." "It has been said that the
typical American does not exist," he
said, "but with me the impression has
grown to a conviction that the typical
American woman Is a delightful and
absolute fact. Her brilliancy in con
versation, the anima tion of her features,
the absence of affectation in her per
feet manners, make her unique. No
other woman compares with her In the
beauty of her person and in her Intel
lectual beauty. She Is the first woman
in the world, and with no other woman
Is a man so completely at his ease.
"There Is a total absence of stupid
faces In America that Is a treat to
Europeans especially those who have
had the misfortune to spend much time
in England. You are not all beautiful,
but you are all Intelligent looking. The
American girl is allowed almost every
liberty and she takes the rest. When
I told my friends at home that Ameri
can girls of 17 are allowed to go to thea
ters and late suppers alone with young
men and let themselves into the house
when they get 'home with their own
latch keys, they said: 'Is It possible?'
And I replied: 'I don't know, but the
girls can."
"Ah! my friends, the lovely thing
about you Americans Is the respect
that woman Inspires In every class.
And let us remember that there are
few men ii every eounlry who are good
enough for the women. And woman
will continue to rule our iheads and
hearts so lone ns the word is synony
mous with beauty and tenderness and
sweetness and devotion and that will
be forever,"
