"What's. this ?" I said, as my eye 1 r r alighted on a stai'tln:t, paragraph. "MYSTraUQUS MURDER !-John Ran- dolph, one of old and wealthy yourv y citizens, was this umrnillg found dead in his room, having. been murdered dur- ing the night by some unknown person. Edgar Mortor r 1 clerk i leek ill lig: 15 em to F y, and who, reports say, Was soon to be .marri'otl to hie daughter, has been ar- rested for the murder, and circuulstan- oes are said to be ' strongly against Now, although I s,in 'nilnally 'among the first to hear of criminal news, from the nature of my business, this was the first intimation I had received that ouvla°N° anu..aoa.. lao.l. .1,0.pF#_done— .,�T11as seemed very strange, and as I was on the best of teems with Mr. Randolph and his whole family. "And so this is the way that Edgar Morton repays the benefactor of his youth and soon-to-be a father ! Yet no," I cried, "I will stake my life on that young man's innocence," As I spoke there came a gentle tap at the door, followed almost immedia- tely by the entrance of a lady, deeply veiled, who at once threw aside the veil disclosing to re the features of my de- ceased friend's daughter, Cecile Ran- dolph. "Excuse me, Mr. Ferguson, for en - term,, uninvited; but :urgent business must be my only excuse." "Be seated, Miss:Randolph," I said rising and handing her a chair. "Oh, Mr. :Ferguson !" she sobbed forth, burying her face in her hands; "that I should ever be obliged to come to you on such an errand at this!" 1 endeavored to quiet her, and par. tidily succeeded, when I drew from her what few remarks she knew regarding her father's death. "He retired last night et his usual hour, apparently iu good spirits, andino sound was heard during the night. to cause any alarm. In the morning as he failed to appear at breakfast, a ser- vant was despatched to summon him. Knocking at the door and receiving no answer, he finally opened it, and ad- vanced into the room. What a sight did he behold ! My poor father lay up- on his bed, with his throat cut from ear to ear 1 Death must have come to him suddenly—so suddenly as to pre- vent any outcry—and the unknown as- sa-s'on had no trouble in making his escape." "But," I said "I can't see why any- one should suspect Edgar of the mur- der. "That is the most mysterious part of the sad affair. This morning, when Edg.tr was told of the murder, he turn- ed very pale, reeled and would have fallen to the ground had no support been given him. Some of the ignorant beholders of the scene thought his ac- tions denoted guilt, and an officer was summoned, who at once insisted on searching his room. A i azor, on which were several spots of blood, was found 0 th nt e y 11 r t m r e e y concealed under the carpet, togethe with an otd suit of clothes belenging t Edgar, which was bespattered wi blood. This was considered sufficie evidence to warrant his arrest, and h now lies in jail, charged with the awfu crime of murder. Oh, Mr. Ferguson if you can do anything to save him and at the same time bring the guilt perpetrator of this deed to justice, I;w1 amply reward you." "Do you know of any enemies of you father, or of Edgar, who would be like to commit such a crime, either for rob bery or revenge ?" I asked. "Oh, sir," she replied, "It was no for robbery, or anything else in the roe that father left it for the night before His watch and pocket -book, the latte containg a large sum of money, wer found under his pillow, where he al ways placed them ; so that the Crim must have been committed to gratif a fiendish thirst for rev •nge. "Now, then, who of all your acquain tames could do such a thing?" "I cannot possible say. Father had not an enemy in the world to my know ledge, but my father's book-keeper and trusty -clerk ; but it would be impossi- ble for him to do such a deed." "Only this, some time ago, Conrad whom we have always regarded as one of ,the family, ' rr. eposed for my hand, and I told him it wat. not nine to give. 'I suspected as much,' he muttered. and when, whilst his face grew dark at night, and his features assumed an ap pearance perfectly fearful, he continued; "But you shall never become the wife of Edgar Morton, whilst I have life to prevent it." He then wheeled about and abruptly left my presence. I was considerably aLtrmed, and thought of speaking to my father about it but during the after- noon, he returned and begged my for- giveness for the words he had used, and made such professions of sorrow in regard to them, that I freely forgave him, and have since thought no more of the matter." "The faotds quite clear to me," I said. "I know this fellow well, and the sort of company he keeps, and I should not be surprised to find that he committed the murder. Now, then, I want to see the body of your father, and the room in which the deed was done." Well, sir," said he, raising and pre- paring to accompany tae, "you will find everything as it was when first dis- covered. The officer concluded not to. disturb anything liniil after the inquest *'high takes place to -morrow after- moon-" Wrapping myself up in my great oat Vs set out, and after a brisk walk of ten minutes, reached the palatial residence of my companion. I: was sit once shown to the roots of a murdered iliati, and then began making such examina tion as only a detective knows how to Make. Circumstances of tho most tri vast elifteacter, which would .tae over lookM r I 1 ode no iti t er y g person, ars often seined upoti by a skilful detective, and somtetitlies constitute the West damning evidence of guilt. In this crier~ how. evet, etervthing lied. been done an the most skiUtiC na.anilet, and, t could not succeed in malting any discoveries: was about to leave the reoni irides- r r when, glancing toady sthe f41 'lt' dr,, bed I noticed what appeared to tle,.aa erateh' On the neck Of the Murdered Maris, just Japan the gaping ;Wound Which hail `so le calf Ina �1 ` trolly t 1 s life � cod Cin isx anti ation I I'ototl i It ,to e r othitig, more .than rl hair which had, nt 901i1Q ;Banner, probably became loosened from the head of the assassin, and had set- tled ou the neck of the victim, where it now lay, a s lent, yet truthful witness pointing out the guilty to the eye of justice. The hair WAS a deep red eolor which was yet totally uubke that of any of the household. It was., indeed, the saute color shade gf that of Conrad: Snlithers.. I placed it carefully `lu Illy pocket- b- and pocket- book. a i_1 sa 11 nothing to anyone of Til discovery, started ed fo r the h.. l r U S t e of y J hoe se ltets, intent on do 6 alit le action. I found him, as his attendant said, ill in bed, and no account mast be dis- turbed. "The sickness is buta ruse," I thought to divert." Telling the wo- man that I wanted to see him for a moment, on the most urgent business, she finally re 1 l lctatuly consented to my elitrtalld,c. I found him lyingou a bed apparently ill great pain. Iniy youth I had studied medicine, and conse- quently well informed on such matters, and I saw at once, with a quick glance that he was only fciging sikeness. He started up somewhat angry, as I enter- ed but I silenced him with a motion of my hand;. t`,l1,Nii'led Smitbers, this it a.desper- ate game year atre-eaa it:b; lees•-„yt,. eee1,. avail you nothing. "What do. ou mean ?” h© exclaimed springing to his feet, his sickness all gone. "I mean that the game is up, and the murderer of John Randolph is dis- covered;" Thrown completely of his guard, as I had anticipared, he sank into a chair and burying his face in his hands, sob- bed out— "Lost ! lost l" "Do you confess the murder, then ?" "I uo," he answered, "now that con- cealment is no longer of use." I took him at once into custody, and had the satisfaction of seeing him change places with Edgar Morton, who was overjoyed at his release. Conrad Smithers was tried for the murder, any defence would be useless after his confession to me, pleaded guilty, and threw himself [down on the mercy of the court, which sentenced him for imprisonment for life. About a year after, I received an en- velope containing an invitation to the wedding of Cecile Randolph and Edgar Morton, who lived long and happy to- gether, and never ceased thanking that Edgar was ,'saved by a hair,"—Key- stone. A QUAKER PRINTER'S PROVERB,—Nev er send thou an article for publication without giving the editor thy name, for thy name may perchance secure publi- cation. Never do thou loaf about a printing office, ask questions, or knock down type, or the boys will love thee as they do shade trees—when thou liveth. Thou shouldst never read the copy on the printer's case, or the compositor thereof may knock the down. Never inquire thou of the editor for the news, for behold it is his business at the ap- pointed time to give it thee without asking. It is not right thou shouldst ask him who is the author of an arti- cle, for it is his duty to keep such things to himself. When thou dost enter his office take heed unto thyself that thou dost not look at what maybe lying open and concerneth then not; for that is not meet in the sight of good breeding. Neither examine thou the proof -sheet, for it is not ready to meet thine eye, that thou mayest under- stand. RESULT OF THE TEMPERANCE MOVE- MENT AT THE WEST.—The Cincinnati Gazette has returns from sixty-one cit- ies, towns and villages in Ohio and In. diana, showing the results accomplish- sd in those places by the women's tem- perance crusade up to about the 26th of February. The returns comprise fifty-five towns in Ohio. In these pla- ces 245 saloons have been closed ; 91 drug stores have signed the druggists, pledge, and about 15,000 persons the total abstinence pledge. On the other hand there are 556 saloons still opeen In Indiana 9 saloons and 9 drug stores have been closed, and 1283 persons have signed the pledge. There are 53 saloons still open. In the aggregate 254 saloons and 100 drug stores have been closed.; about 16,000 persons have signed the pledge. There are 612 sa- loons still open. RUMOR. "Who was the meekest Riau ?" ask- ed a Sunday School teacher. "Moses." 'Very well ; who was the meekest wo. man ?" "Never was any.,' "You look like death on a pale horse," said a gentleman to an old toper, who was pale and emaciated. "I don't know anything about that," said the toper, "but I am death on pale bran. n y A lady was recommending to n gen. tleman a medicine for the gout. "I know many who praise into the skies," 'she said. "No doubt madam,"she said "for it has sent many to the skies to praise it." A young man was conversing :in a tavern of his abilities and accomplish- ments, and boasting a great deal of his mighty performances. When he had finished, a Quaker quietly observed. "There is one thing thou cant not 'do' thou canst not tell the truth." A tutor of e. college, lecturing a young man on his irregular conduct, added with great pathos, "The report of your vices will bring your father's grey hairs with sorrow to the grave." "I beg your pardon, sir," replied the pupil, "my father wears a wig. A pair of San Francisco chartered a tug end steamed outside the bar, with the romatie intention of having the wedding ceremony ptrformed on the bounding billow. It is comforting to know that tney were very sea sick and were obliged to return unmarried. When it good wife had prepared an excellent dinner for her husband, and he declared he was pleased with it, she said, "Well, kiss me, then." "Oh never mind that ply dear," was his re. ply: " the necessary of life we m+st have, but the luxuries you colt dispense with, marimilidisommorni AGENTS WANTED.
