"I could, but I choose to have you tell me instead. Barnes suspects Mora, and with dogged persistency lie kept n watch on ids man. There is your true detective Instinct, and It pays In the majority of cases. You either did not suspect hiui or you wore indifferent on the point of his guilt. You went after the woman. Why?" "I followed the French system, 'seek the woman.' I was sure that Mora would turu up In Essex street. I merely took the shortest road to the o m.llnn 'I'l.nl I o oil " "Yes. Perhaps you are toll in g the truth, but you do not tell all the truth. Listen! You went Into the house and searched the rooms of both the woman nnd Mora. Since then you have taken more Interest In the woman. That Is what. 1 wish to have*explained." ? Mr. MlteliCi thought he saw an opvnmnge 01 ir.' from his pocket and handed It to nWJ Coinpnnioii, rcmnrhtug: "I found that iu Mora's room. That Is why I am now anxious to find the woman." "I don't follow you. Make It plainer." Ho had taken the photograph, and Ids eyes now gazed upon It admiringly, but Mr. Mltchel was not able to Judge from his countenance whether or not the original was known to him. But next he played ids trump card.. "That photograph, Preacher Jim," said he, with deep meaning in ids tones, "is the Ukeaess of the mother of the Infant found In the graveyard." Preacher'JIm started perceptibly and looked at Mr. Mltchel in undisguised amazement. ? "How do you make that out?" he asked, with emotion, which was evident, though suppressed. "By using my brains, Preacher Jim, your own pet method, I believe." By this time the man had fully recovered his self control, and, handing back the photograph, he laughed bolster - ously. "Exceptional brains you must have. That Is the picture of little 'Lily of the Valley,' as she calls herself, a concert singer in the Rowery saloons. And you say she is that baby's mother. Why, can't you see by that picture that she is only n baby herself?" "I Imagine that she might have been about 14 when this was taken, but how do I know her present age?" "Well, I'll tell you. She's a little over 10. So, you see, she Is still a t child." I "My own mother married at 13," replied Mr. Mitehei, "so the girl's youthfulness cnuuot set aside my opinion. I am sure that I am right. Moreover, I am convinced that Mora Is the father." "What! Mora the father?" Preacher Jim laughed long and ioudly. "I say, Mr. Mlteliel, you arc ruining your reputation in my utlnd. 1 thought you had more brains. Because you find the girl's picture in Morn's rooms you jump to that queer conclusion. Let me show you how silly you are. Look here." lie drew from his coat pocket n leather wallet, from which he took Oht a photograph, tvhlch also was a likeness of the girl, In this instance in X dancing costume. "There, now." he continued. "Perhaps you'll ehnngo off and say I'm tbo father." "Whero <11(1 you get this?" asked Mr. Mltchcl, Ignoring the sarcastic tones of the criminal. ,rWo won't have to go far. Conic across tho street." Mr. Mltchel followed liini until they stoo<l before a stationery store, where. In the window, there were exposed for sale numerous pictures of actresses, 1 among which were several on which * was printed. "The Lily of the Valley," and a placard announced that they > could ho bought for 2." cents each. t "There vou are." said Preacher Jim. s "Buy one and join the army of her ad- < nllrers.

"The other woman?" asked M Mitchel, with singular emphasis on tl second word. ."Yes, the other woman, Mrs. Mo ton." Then, after a pause, as thouf a new idea had occurred ty him: "O come, now! You don't actually thli Mrs. Morton and Lilian Vale nrc 01 and the same?" "What If I do think so?" "Well, that's your privilege, course. Think as you like. It Is i business of mine. But, look here, return to the main point. You a studying crime, are you not?not as detective, but as a criminologist? Y would like to unearth the causes whl lead to the existence of crimina would you not?" "You are by no means a fool," sa Mr. Mitchel. "You have guessed i: main . interest in tlie work in liai: You might assist me very much in r studies If you chose." "In what manner?" "You claim to be a horn crimln and, to use a naturalist's term, I fii vol! a most interest !i?'? sneelmnn woul.l vory much like to moot t mother of a born c|pnlnal." "You are not lacKlug in audacity make suc h a request.

Presently he extended his lint] saying: "Will you shake hands on that Mr. Mltchel promptly acquiesced, ai the criminal continued: "1 believe y> are as honest as you are bold. I w trust you. 1 will grant your request. They walked along in silence, bo men too engrossed in thought to i terrupt the working of their brains 1 uttering words. Preacher Jim led t way to Mulberry street, stopping block above what was for so long time known as "The Bend." lie stood before a narrow, ulrty alb which led to a rear tenement. On more he addressed Mr. Mltchel: "I seem to be in a queer mood. W1 I have brought you here passes n own comprehension. It is a vei stupid tliiug, but I agreed to do I and I never break my word. Bear tin in mind. Tor good or ill, a promts from Preacher Jim Is final and bin lug. And I promise you now thAt ever you use against me or mine ai: uuu?icusu uuiumcu nere, wnere ni poor ok! mother lives, your life wl pny the forfeit. If the terms do n< suit you, I will only be too glad to hi you Rood dny." "I*will go in with you. Your won do not alarm me." "They need not unless you piny tl traitor." Mulberry street is one of the siglii of the great metropolis, for man blocks being within a stone's throw < Broadway, the groat business artery < the city. Millions upon millions' wort of property are piled In the store banks and warerootns that line Itroa< way, the most important thoroughfnt on the American continent. It Is then fore natural that its sidewalks shoul "Why, it is a woman!" he ci'lcd, t>e crowded. Yot, though Mulberr; it root is almost as poor as Broadway 1 'icli, the crowds are denser, niul it !i lot nu idle throng cither, for on al ?ldes arc evidences of thrift * A11 thi itores are occupied, every hallway li diverted into a diminutive shop, an< here are stands at the curb, and ovei u the middle of tho street loadet vltb wares which the peddlers have it iffor.. /Xhe^wbole Vht ^ v converted Into .1 market place, the pur 1 chasers ami passersby are forced tc thread their way now on the sidewalk but oftcuest on the asphalt driveway over which latter, by the bye, there li never a passageway for horse an<j wagon. Yet, except for a very occaslona | family row, the scene Is almost invar! ably orderly. The whole Is plcturesqm | from the very qunintness of the snr roundings. It all seems so foreign t< an American city, not even the Eug | lish language being heard as one walki by. I say the scene Is picturesque, | but, alas, not the women! Itaphne! andCorregglo have taught us how beau t If ill the daughters of Italy ma.v be j but they could not have found tlieli models In such a locality, where chil | drcn of 14 are attired like elderly worn en and look older than they are, wltl their colorless cheeks nud sunken eyes 1 which seek the pavement because ol ' the stoop in their backs from carrying I burdens. How could beauty thrlv< ' here? Mr. Mitcbertook In the general seem at a glance as he turned into the alley | leaving the kaleidoscopic array of col or behind him and passing into tin | gloom beyond, where all seemed color ' less. "He careful where you walk," came i ? warning from Preacher Jim just li time to prevent Mr. Mltchel fron treading upon an infant crawling alonj ^ toward the street in a state of nudit; ip which would have attracted nttentioi anywhere but lu this neighborhood . where children who are nearly ful grown are often clothed with but i IC single garment. At the end of the alley was a court . so called by courtesy, being In trutl but little wider than the alley itsell ' At the back rose up gauntly bctweei the main houses and the rising sun i tall structure, erected in comparative ly recent times that the greedy owne j of the ground might squeeze a fc\ no more dollars from the pockets of tli outcasts whose only hope of happl rp ness In this great "new land" is t herd with those who can at least conpreliend their own tongue.

"The old woman keeps her latch o to keep out Intrusive visitors," ciplah ed Preacher Jim as he repeated hi u summons. jjl But after some time, there bein ,, still uq sound from within, he turnc the knob. To his surprise, the doc yielded, and he led the way In. I)V "She's out, I guess," he said, "or th I* door wouldn't be open. She's got 11 a way to lock It on the outside. Th lock's broken. It's dark enough 1 here, Isn't It?" It was dark enough, though Mi lc0 Mitehel observed that the one window In the room was obscured by neithe blind, shutter nor shade. No llgh ' entered, because there was no ligli that could find a way In. I* "I'll strike a light," said the erlml ' nnl. "Have you a match?" Mr. Mltchc handed him his match safe, and In 1 . few minutes a smoky lamp was dlml, u* 111.?i.. |, Iiuiiiiiiuub IUC 1UUUI. "What have wo here?" exclaimed Mx Mitchol as soon as lie could make on I?. anything iu the room. Then, advnnc Ing, he leaned down and examined tin j\ object which had attracted his atten ' tlon. . "Why, It Is a woman!" he cried. "Am a she Is hurt! There Is blood here!" "Itlood!" cried Treacher Jim, arous ,c> ed to a sudden state of excltemen which astonished Mr. Mitcliel. Hi a brought the lamp and, stoopiug down ^ turned the woman over, so that tin } dim light fell upon her face. Then ' with the enraged cry of a wild beast he Jumped up, crying: "It Is my mother, nxy mother! Sh? has been murdered?murdered, I tel 0 you! 1 will kill the man who did this v Do you hear? I will kill him! I wll 1 tear Ids heart'out with these hand: while It Is yet warm! You think ] could not, do you?" He leaned over Mr. Mltchel menn elngly, his eyes ablaze with fury, nn< It s.cemod that but a move, a word might mnke him vent his rage at once In some bloody act. Itut much of tlx danger was not oven ntmrohnn.in/i ??. Mr. Mitchel, for lie wns looking down, examining the woman, trying to find whether the heating of her heart had ceased. At this Juncture, perhaps Jusl In time to save himself from the effects of the temporary mania Into which his companion had been plunged by the sight of his mother's blood, he looked up and said: "She Is not dead! Ilcr heart bents!" Preacher Jim was lu.stantly transformed. He set down his lamp and dropped to the floor, where on his knocs he hastily felt for the heart's r beating, then plnced his ear close to ' hear Its throb, meanwhile speaking ' hysterically: "Not dead! Thank God! Let me see! e Let me see! You might be lying to J me! Where Is the heart? There, I have It! I hare It! Yes, yes, it Is j beating! I.et me listen! Sh-h-h-h! Yes, I hear It!
