CHAPTER XVI IfR. BARNES DISCOVERS A VALUABLE CLEW. Immediately alter the wedding Mr. Mitchel and his bride started west, in tending to spend their honeymoon in the Yosemite Talley, haring promised Mrs. Hemsen and Dora, however, to join them in the White mountains before the end of the season. About the 1st of July the Remsens and the Van Rawl- etons went to Jefferson, H. H., a small town along the base of the Pliny range of mounUins, from which a magnificent view of the Presidential range, only ten miles away, is to be obtained. About the middle of the month Mr. Randolph determined to visit the same place and was intensely disgusted on alighting from the stage, which reaches the Waumbeok hotel about 8 o’clock at night, to be greeted familiarly by Mr. Alphonse Thauret It was evident that his rival did not intend to lose any chance to win the hand of DoraRemsen. If one has anything of the artistic in his nature, be could scarcely fail to en joy himself at Jefferson. The town is pnmtically a single road, well up tbs side of the mountain range. Thus the hotels all look out over a long and beau tiful valley. From the piazza of the Waumbeok, on a clear day, no less than 85 mountain peaks can be easily count ed, the Green mountains over in Ver mont being visible as a distant line of blue and not in the total Of course the most conspicuous and most admired peak is Mount Washing ton. One who has not visited the region might suppose that he would soon be come sated with the sight of the same mountains day after day. This is a great error. All the mountains, and especially Mount Washington, are ever presenting new aspects. All changes of atmosphere produce corresponding variations The shadows of passing clouds, the effects at sunrise or at sunset, the moonlight, the partly cloudy weather when the top of the mountain is bidden, the mists and the rain, all offer such totally different coloring and picturesque effects that the artistic eye is never tired. Dora was an artist in every fiber of her being, as one would know who lis tened to her talking to Mr. Randolph half an hour after his arrival as they sat together on the piazza. In his de light to be with her and to bear her, be would have forgotten the very existence of Mr. Thauret were it not that he sat near them in the rotunda at the end of the piazza, and so shared the entertain ment that she offered. “Whatapity,” she was saying, "that you did not come up yesterday. You have missed the grandest sights that mortal ever beheld. I suppose on your trip up yon saw nothing beautiful in the rainstorm that we had this after noon?” "Nothing whatever,” said Mr. Ran dolph. "However it may have been here among the mountains, the rain did not make the valleys more attractive. In deed I thought it simply a beastly day.” "What a mistake that you were not here instead of in the horrid cars. Why, I tell you that I haven’t words with which to describe the magnificent pic tures that I have enjoyed. Yet I am about to try. You must not lose it all you know. MayItellyouabout.it?” “Assuredly. I shall be delighted.” "Well, then, to begin. Look out over the valley. What do you see?” "The moonlight shedding a beautiful ray over the lake. ” “Exactly, ” said Dora, laughing heart ily. “That is just the funny mistake I thought you would make. That is not a lake at all It la mist, or clouds rather. In the morning, if I h'ad not told you, you would have been astonished to find that your lake is all trees and meadowa To begin, then. About 4 o’clock it b«- gau to cloud up. That was very inter esting. The sun was shining brightly here, but we could see that it was rain ing hard over in the direction of Lan caster. Slowly it began to come toward ns. Some of the boys made wagers as to how soon it would rain here. Then one of the proprietors came out and sur prised us all by saying that it would probably rain over on the Presidential range before it did here. This seemed extraordinary to us, you know, because why should it skip right over us and go ,*0 the big mountains?” I “Well, did it? It does seem impossi ble.” “That is exactly what occurred. You see, it is like this: Whenever a storm comes from Lancaster way, the clouds when they get here are divided by the Pliny range and pass on either side, leaving u$ dry. Then they strike against the sides of the Presidential range and sod buck into our valley. It was a curi ous sight, I assure you, to see the clouds dying in exactly opposite directions.” "Well, knt, after all, there could not have been any great beauty in the rain. It must have blotted out all the view. ” "Yes, but think bow odd it was to find all these tremendous peaks sudden ly gone Not a mountain in sight in any direction. But, then, the thunder. Oh, that was grand I The way it rolls about and reverberates gives one a good idea of a great battle. There was some thing afterward that carried out this similarity, too, which I wish I could dMcribo. It was after the storm had passed and the bright setting sun shone forth. Try to see the picture. Imagine yourself sitting just where I am now, awl looking toward the Presidential range, the sun setting red behind us. Mount Washington had shaken the clouds from bis head and was encircled by a gorgeous halo, in the form of a brilliant double rainbow. One end of it seemed to come np right out of the val ley there, while the other disappeared Inhind Starr King mountain The fly ing clouds, still black and heavy, whirled swiftly along, hanging low, and, with the snn approaching the horizon, made shifting shadow across the base of Mount Washington, while between the rifts the red rays of the snn striking dif ferent parts made beanteous tinting* gmoag the areea and the brown of trees and rock. Oh, it an artist oouia atny have seen that! Bnt then it wonld have been useless, for the hand of man oonld not paint soch grandeur. It was in the foreground that the resemblance to the battlefields was to be seen again. Every here and there stray bita of clouds dis entangled themselves from the tree tops and rose np smokelike till one could im agine them to be from thousands of campfires. full” Oh, it was simply wonder- "It was indeed,” said Mr. Thauret, “and your description brings it all back again to me. ” “Then the beautiful l<mg twilight,” Dora continued, almost unheeding, "that was lovely. Slowly these stray bite of mist met and joined others, till as the darkness came and the moon brightened, that beautiful sheet of water—for after all your lake U real water—accumulat ed, and there it ia At least you can en joy that ” He did. Bnt what be enjoyed mors was the simple happiness of being with her. After a short time, however, he was deprived of that, for Mrs. Re msec claimed his attention, and took him up to the ballroom to introduce him to some of the many young women who were dancing with each other and with boys of 14 for want of better partners. If Mr. Thauret annoyed Mr. Ran dolph by being at this resort, the latter gentleman was none the mere pleased at his arrival Being left alone with Dora, and construing her present mood to be one favorable to his wooing, he deter mined to speak to her before the other man might find a chance. Moving his chair nearer hers, he began, getting to his subject without much circumlocu tion. > * “Mias Dors,” said be, "do yon recall a conversation that I had with yon one day? I mean about loneliness and the longing one has for companionship?’’ “Oh, yes,” said she frankly; “why? Do yon wish to continue it now?" "If yon please. Yon remember yon said yon wonld be better able to do so after your sister’s marriage. ” "Because I thought that I would miss her so much and be lonely myself, was not that it? Well, of course I have missed Queen very much, but I have scarcely been lonely. Yon have taken care of that, and I *am sure that I am very grateful to yon. You have been very nice to me.” “Yon think so? You admit that?” He spoke eagerly. "Why, yes I Why not, since it is true?" “Of conns, bnt then yon know so many yonng ladies hide their feelings. I mean suppression of all emotion is considered so necessary in a woman In these days.” “Suppression I” and she laughed heartily. “Now do you think that I could ever be supprosaod?’* “No, indeed, and 'certainly I hope that yon never will be. But if you have not been lonely, perhaps you have thought some of that other subject, love, I mean.” “Oh I That I” “Yes. That is one question, supreme to me, about which I wish to have your views Do you think yon wonld be hap pier or unhappier—it yon were mar ried?" “That is a question. It would depend upon—my husband, wonld it not?" "Suppose that we were”— "Don’t call names, please. I couldn’t suppose such a thing. I have promised not ta ” "Promised not tu I don’t under stand?” "I mean that I have made abet Yon don’t think 1 am horrid to bet, do yon? Of course you don’t Well I have made a curious bet with Bob, Mr. Mitohel, yon know. I call him Bob now, and I need to do it sometimes before. That was when I wanted him to do anything for me. It made him feel likeooe at the family. Well, to tell you about my bet You see, sometimes, when Emily was out, Bob would play make love to me. He said it would be good practice for me; would teach me the ways at the world and all that sort of thing. Oh, Bob Is a curious man, but be is greet sport I Don’t you like him?” 1 "Immensely. Bnt yon have not told me yet about your bet ” "I am coming to it Well, one day when he was making love to me and I was doing my best, suddenly be burst out laughing and said, ‘Dora, I'll bet yon’ll be engaged within six montha of our marriage.’ ‘How much?’ said I ‘As much as you like,’ said ha. I asked him if he would make it $1,000, and he whistled and called me a little gambler. Bnt I don't think it was gambling be cause I was to have a certainty. Of course I wanted the stake to be a large one. So it was agreed, and he wrote it down on paper. I’ll show it to yon some time if yon lika If I am not engaged before the 1st of January, Bob will have to pay me $1,000. ” “And you mean to win that bet?" "Indeed Ida I am yonng and can afford to wait that long, I am sura There will be time enough afterward to get a husband.” "Then it would not make any differ ence how auxiens a suitor might be to have bis reply at onoe?” “No, certainly not If a man did not love me enough to wait a few months for his answer, I should think myself well rid of him. Besides it wonld give me a chance to study him. ” “Suppose—but, no—I do ask you. Miss Dora—Dora—I love you madly, passionately, and"— “Well, don’t say any mow. If that ia true and you love me madly, passionate ly, why, then you will suwly wait till January for your answer. ’’ This was said rather curtly, and_Mr. Thauret's hopes sank, but rose again to fever heat as she said very softly: "There, I did pot mean to hurt you. You must not think me bard. But I must win that wager. Not so much for the money as for the gratification of proving to Bob' that I have some control over myself. Surely if yon truly love me you will not beam due me that setisfanttaaf*' “No, no, sweet oba nave your own way. I’U wail Only eay thet than is ■ome whawna of mv snfiosedlns ” "Why, of course, every one baa a obanoe. But I must not tall you bow great your* la, because if I did I wonld not be winning my bet fairly. And I must say good night, ’' with which she left him. Her last words lingered with him, and be took comfort For what oonld she mean bnt that hie abaaoaa were good, since if otherwise how could the telling prevent her from winning her wager? Nevertheless, aa the week* went on be tried many times to get a more definite wply from her, bnt never succeeded. Still he hngged the cherish ed hope to hit heart and waited aa pa tiently aa man oonld. Randolph was simply miserable all the time. Whenever he wee with Dora, she was good to him, kind to him and often used tender tones that thrilled his heart Bnt be, too, failed to get any thing from her, save the old request that be should be patient and wait He, too, waited, bnt not patiently. Meanwhile, in New York, Mr. Barnes was still borrowing into everything that ■earned to have any connection direct or otherwise with the mystery or mysteries that baffled him. Of one thing he had satisfied himself beyond all doubt That was that Mr. Fisher had not been im plicated in the train robbery. Hie spy had found that be had been absent from the city during three days at the time of the crime, bnt this very fact had been shown to be his safeguard. By some skillful work the man dis covered that during that time he had ■imply been off shooting ducks in a part of the country where it would have been impossible for him to be an accom plice. This simple fact should not have been herd to discover were it not that Fisher had kept bis trip a secret This for some time puzzled the detective, but finally he followed him ont of the city, and practically accompanied him on a similar outing, after which he learned that his lister was morbidly opposed to all killing, whether for sport or for a livelihood. It wee to humor this idea that her brother mads his excursions in secret The spy learned from the men from.whom the dogs were hired that Mr. Fisher had used them in December. So that left him ont of the soore, or at least so it seemed. It was still poarible that he was implicated in the ruby rob bery, though, save that he was present, there seemed nothing against him. Mr. Barnes did not entirely leave him out of the account Thus practically the detective made no progress, end wee chagrined to bo oompalled to admit it Finally, how ever, an idea occurred to him, upon which the more he dwelt the more fas cinated he became with it To put it into practice, however, be felt that he must await the return of Mr. Mitohel He thought be would injure his ouuee by seeking him and so disturbing him during his pleasure trip. The Mitchell did not keep their prom- iae to go to the White mountains, bnt on the contrary, prolonged their west ern travel, so that it was November be fore they were at home again and tem porarily quartered at the Fifth Avenue. A few days after, Mr. Barnes sent np his card, and, aa usual, was cordially received. v “Any news of my wife’s ruby?" ask ed Mr. Mitohel, grasping the detective warmly by the band. “No, Mr. Mitohel I am eosry to say that I am utterly unable to prove any of my theories about that Bnt I have come to a set determination, and one that to yon may seem a peculiar one. I have oome to ask your aasiitanoe ia the murder ease. M "Why, certainly, I will help you. Did I not tell you so at the very outset? Have I not alwaye been willing to talk freely to you?” "You havA bnt as long as I thought that yon yourself might have committed the crime, how could I oome to yon to ask you to assist me?" "Then I am to understand that at present yon do not suspect me?" "I have oome to that conclusion at last and with now that I had done so sooner.” "Would yon mind telling me why yon have altered your mind? You have told me to much that seemed to impli cate me that I am curious to hear the other side. ” “Certainly. I overheard your wager. Then earns the robbery and than the murder. Later there was a aeoood jewel robbery. All of these crimee occurred within the limit which you set One of them of course rou oommitted. It seems more probable that you stole the single ruby, for in doing that you oommitted a crime for wh’ch you could not be pun ished, especially since you have married the lady. Even before she would will ingly have testified that it wae under stood between yon, and that it wae sim ply u trick to win a wager. Is not that correct logic?" “Correct kgio? Yea. Of oouree I ad mit nothing as to faete. ” “Either or both of these robberies era' secondary to the murder. That I have determined to unravel if loan. At pres ent I think the train robber end the murderer was one and the mme person. Now, there is cm clew which I have not been able to follow, bnt which, if penned, I am certain will lead me straight to the criminal ” “And that ie?” "The button which I found ia the room. That ia significant It is too great a coincidence that it should match your set not to have an explanation that would abed light upon this case. ’’ “How do yon expect me to assist you in that direction?" “As long as I thought you guilty I believed that you had lied when you ■aid that the seventh button of the set was the Shakeepeere pin which your wife had. Tbat a is why I thought it of importance to recover It; snffloiently so to send my spy, Lucette, into the bouse with instruction* to obtain it if pomi- bla. Now that I believe yon innocent of the murder, this thought baa recently oome to me. When I flret told you about this button, before you would speak ■bout it, yon asked me to allow you to examine it After doing so you gave it back to me, with a cheerful smile. If that button had been evidence against you, I see now that it would have re quired a powerful nerve to appear so unconcerned, end especially to return it to ma The question, then, that I wish yon to answer Is, What waa tt that you saw on that button which aatiaflad yon that it waa not at your aet?” "In the flat place, Mr Banes, I knew that there were but three like It, i the other three having different henda, ' end the seventh being the Shakespeare button.

You need not fear to make the promise. I will guarantee that your man shall not escape. I know him. ’’ “Yon know him?" Mr. Barnes waa astonished that Mr. Mitohel should make snob an admission. "Yes, I know him. That is, I am morally certain that I know him. I will tell yon at onoe that having the knowl edge that I myself was innocent I have had an advantage over you, and I have been hunting down this man all these months. I have good circumstantial evi dence against him, bnt not enough to warrant an arrest—at least not yet If yon oonld follow this clew and find that it leads to the seme man we oonld oon viot him.” "Will you give me the name of the man whom you suspect?” "Not That would materially weaken our case. We must get the tame result Without collusion. No, you work alone and work quickly, for I particularly Wish the case to be completed by Jan. 1.” “Why eo?” "It is the day upon which my wager is to be decided, and I shall give a din ner party, at which I anticipate some fun. By the way, don't forget that you won a dinner from me oo a wager. Ac cept an invitation to dine with me Jan. 1, and if you can then convict our man yon shall be most welcome. ” "I shall bend every energy to that end. But now tell me the name of the Jeweler from whom the buttons wan procured.” Mr. Mitohel then wrote down the name of a Paris firm, also giving their addreea. Handing the slip of paper to Mr. Barnes, he took another sheet and oon tinned writing. "Why, Mr. Mitohel,” exclaimed Mr. Barnes, “this is the same firm from whom your jewek were brought—those, 1 mean, which are similar to the stolen art. 1 have already communicated with these people, and they mat ma word that they knew nothing. ” “Yes, I know. That waa by my in- ■trootion. ’’ Saying which Mr. Mitchel smiled, end Mr. Barnes once more dis covered that he had been fighting against a man who thought of every thing. "You see,” oon tinned Mr. Mnohel, "I knew that yon saw the name of the jewelers on the bill of sale. What more probable than that you should apply there for information? Now, my object throughout has been not to defeat justice, hut to have time enough elapse for me to win my wager. Therefor* I immediately sent a cable to these persons, ‘Answer nothing signed Bernes till you hear from me. ’ Rather a long cable dispatch, but then I don’t mind a few dollars. Of oouree my cable to them made them shut their mouths to you. It was very simple. However, I myself have not been able to get satis factory faete from them, and I think it needs a person actually oo the ground to ferret out this thing. I believe you are just the men for the oaae. This let ter will give you their assistance, end here is a check for $500 for expensea.’’ Mr. Bams* would have refused, but Mr. Mitohel iagjeted that from that time on Mr. Barnes should consider himself regularly employed on the mur der case, "Though of oouree,’’said Mr. Mitohel jocularly, "you are still tree to work out the robberies. ” The two men ebook hands at parting, and one would have said that they were separating after a mutually satisfactory interview. \ bb ooannran.] Bognapoe ia relative.
