When my packet ship, the Her- nlioue, was preparing, to sail from Liverpool for New York 1 was warned to take precautions against receiving as passenger a certain Mary Youngson, who, while nurs- ing her sick husband -a man con- siderably her seuioar-bad poisoned him to death, laid hold of all the money aid valuables she could get and then had Made ofl' It was thought that she would try to leave England on some outward bound ship -moat likely for America, where she had friends, and there fore. I sharply scrutinized the paeseuier8, eight in number, who were brought off to my little vessel ill a tender. As they stepped aboard I was relieved to perceive that none of thew tallied with the description I had obtained of Miss Youngson, Who, I was told, was a beautiful woman, over 35 years of age, about 5 feet 6 inches in height and very slender, with brown hair dirk eves, and a clear complexion. She had been born and educated abroad, but her father had been an EnglishmalI and an amateur actor, from whom she had inherited a re- niarkahle capacity for deceiving people as to her character. Two of the female passengers who now came aboard were married ladies, and of dark complexion , there were also two young women of about 21 ; one a Miss Lorton, plain and stout ; the other, Miss Merwin, slender and tall, apparent ly nut less than 5 feet nine inches, with the most childish, innocent - looking face, for one of her age, that I ever saw- She had brown hair and eyes, s nail, baby like features, and smooth, glowing cheeks, which were constantly dimpled with smiles. As she elightly lifted her long skirt, we sttw that instead of shoes or boots she wore ornamental buskins of some kind of soft leather which made no noise when she walked. Afterward we heard that she had lately sprained her feet and could not yet bear harder leather. From the first I could see that my sou Tom, a young man of 25, and chief officer, was greatly im- pressed by this girl. He had always liked tall women, and anything "babyish" in their looks or manners particularly pleas. ed hint. Still, I was surprised at tl a end of one short week after we sailed to learn that he had actually proposed and been accepted. was the only ,0110 whiz -noticed her 18t that time, i i" pu meetit,g my ,gaze she dew hack as quick ea a Nab end vanished in the cabin. The witnessed for a moment almost took away my breath. My whole mind was fixed upon tliia one thing, and when my eon cause up, a few hours later, to take the deck, 1 des- cribed the singular change I bad noticed in Miss Merwin's stature. "She is so artless, so ingenuous, so free from guile of any kind," said Ile, "that you can read her heart at once ! We are to be mar- ried on coming hack to Liverpool, at the house of her aunt, who is expecting her. With her usual childish frankness elle informed me that, although having a small fortune in 3 per cents, left to her by her father, who was•a merchant, sire ie at present short of cash, which would hinder her from per, chasiug, on landing, certain little articles she desired toward a wed• ding outfit. I was so touched by her shy, infantile way, blended with timid 'distress at having to tell me this, that I at once went to nay room and procured the $5,000 United States bond, which you know I lately Nought with my savings, and gave it to her, telling her where she could get it cashed, and bade her then take out of it whatever she needed.". "Why, Tom, you don't say so ?" I cried rather startled. "Of course," he answered. "Why not 7 We are engaged, and it ought to be the sante about money mat- ters as if we were married." He went below, and 1 sat long in the clear moonlight, thinking it over as a hasty, foolish piece of business, when suddenly I was startled by the cry of the look out forward. "Sail ho ! right ahead !" The stranger -a large ship -pat her helm sport, so I had no doubt she would pass us safely enough ; hut, RR she was going hy, her helmsman raising his wheel too soon, her how swung off. and her jibboom caught under nay spanker sheet, lifting the spar and snapping it of with a crash. There was noise and confusion as we worked briskly to keep the two vessels apart and prevent further damage, in the midst of which several of the passengers catne run- ning up, somewhat frightened, to find out what the matter was. "It is nothing ; we are all right now 1" I cried, to reassure them, VI the other ship swung clear of us. Miss Merwin had emerged from the companion way after the others, and as I looked toward her form, distinctly revealed by the moon- light and one of the lanterns, I stood stock still in the utmost 8trailg0 phenomenon I had He stared at me first as if he thought we mad,then broke out into au incredulous laugh, saying that, my eyes or the imperfect light must have deceived we. I knew better, however ; but finding I could not convince hull 1 told him to wait until the young lady should appear at breakfast in the morning, when he might see for hinhself, Two hours later the second mate came up to relieve Tow, who then went below. The officer, tieing me seated in a reverie on the quarter- deck, walked amidships, where he stood looking carelessly forward. All at once, judge of wy surprise when, raising my head, I beheld, leaning against the rail near nie, a person I had never seen before -a slender, middle-aged man, of rather low stature, with hair covering nearly every part of the face except- ing the eyes, which glittered like fire balls in the moonlight. "Why, halloo ! Vile are you 7 Where did you come from 1" I cried. "Pray don't excite )ourself," he coolly answered. "I nen a detective and got aboard in the harbor through the connivance of one of the crew -- 1 am not going 'to tell you which one -who also supplies rhe with food. I have been all along in the iitate-room next to Miss Merwin's, with my carpetbag. Had you look- ed in the room you would have seen me, but you probably missed the key, or thought it was lost." "That is true ; but-" "Here is my warrant," he inter- rupted, handing the a paper, which, on reading it by the lantern's light, I perceived was a signed document, apparently from the proper authori' ties, instructing John Clews, the bearer, a detective, to conceal him- self aboard the Hertnione and act as lie might Ree fit in his endeavor to detect the murderess, Miss Youngson, who it was xuspected was a passenger in disguise aboard the vessel. "She is here," was his confident reply when 1 remarked that there must be some mistake. "I have not watched through the hole 1 bored ill the partition for nothing." "Why wan I" I cried aghast, "she can not be the guilty one - She is innocence itself -as artless as a child. Besides, she is very tall and young; whereas I have been told that the murderess was much shorter and nearly twice as old.", He laughed in a way which to 11110 was indescribably disagreeable. "It is not Miss Merwin I allude to," lie 'aid. "You will remember that the state -room of DIiss Lorton is alert next to mine." "What !" I exclaimed almost as as much surprised as before, "you suspect that stout young lady who --7" "I"don't suspect," he interrupted, '+l. know her to be a criminal." "But 8110 ie young, plain, . and stout ; the accused woman was slender-" "11th t" 11e again interrupted. "Disguise ! That will explain all. It is very easy for a woman of that kind to Geake herself look younger and stouter than she really is. Should we fall in with a good Liver- pool hottr,d ship I shall arrest this woman and take her on boin•d of it with ole. 1 will go back to 1uy room now. You may or may not see ole again before we sight a homebound craft." With that he glided like a shadow into the cabin. Now, then, I had something to keep ole awake -to drive all thoughts of turning in from my Mind. So, after all, that woman -that terrible murderess -was aboard my iliip ! I commenced to walk the deck in no pleasant frame of mind, and the morning light stole around me before I was aware that the hour was so late, �.8tt1S,Q 11.it1�k!1I g11,tr:,�,1f: llpu� I'!>�a.!� •e�:.fl:41 _�Q� living Man, her stature now seemed at least three inches shorter than 1 had hitherto seen it 1910, uueaailyt r'Iil sa. 1lx0)'W1Z 1113 not yet ah0wn herself." The day wore 00. without seeing. her. 1:ven at supper time she did not make her appearance. - Tuw looked pale and concerned. Finally he went and knocked at her door, calling her name. There was no response. "I do not know whet to make of 'it," be said to me on deck. "Oh, father 1'' he added, wildly, "is it possible that she can have suddenly died 1" "I don't think so," 1 answered ; "she seemed to be in good health ;" and then thought to myself: "Were it not that we are where we are, sad elle a different sort of person, I Might huspeet that she had abscond- ed with your money." • As night approached her non- appearance excited General comment, and I was advised to break open the door, which was locked. I dill so, and we found her roost empty. Her trunk was still there, but she was gone. My son looked at we as pale as death. "My Go•l ! what can have be- come of her 1" he groaned. In fact, it certainly was a very peculiar case and, coupled with my previous observation of the strange shortening of the young woman'a stature, it seemed to me to partake almost of the supernatural. •'May she not have gone on deck last night and fallen overboard 7" inquired one of the passengers. "Imporeible 1'' I answered. "It was clear moonlight. I was on deck all night ; and, besides, I had good lookouts posted about the ship. The thing could not have happened to us." We looked to see if we night not tied a dote or something explana- tory, but in vain. Then I ordered a thorough search to be made throughout the ship. This waesdone ; hut no, she was not to be found, though every nook and corner was looked into. Then it occurred to me to speak to the detective about it ; and, as soon rte I could do so unobserved, I knocked at his door. He cautiously opened it, and on seeing who was there lie invited me in. I told him what had happened, not even omitting to mention the sudden change I had previously noticed in tl,e�Ouug lady's height.As I proceeded, I observed that his keen eves seemed to glow larger, while the thick beard ghat covered the face of this singular man kept twitching, as if every hair was in- stinct with life. "Give Ire time," he said solemnly, when I had finished, "and I will solve this mystery. In a few days I may be able to do it -perhaps not for a week." I left him and went on deck. Tom was there, looking so downcast and forlorn that I resolved to acquaint him with the presence of the detective, and tell him what be said, and so perhaps brighten hits up a little. I did do but nay words had an effect I had not expected. Reflect- ing a moment, be cried out, ''Father, I believe that than is a humbug But, whether lie be a detective or not, I now suspect that he is a thief and a murderer ; that he knew of Miss Merwin's leaving that $5,000 bond, and that, in order to possess (himself of it, he has killed her and thrown her body overboard !" When breakfast was ready in the cabin, Mist.; Merwin was absent from her accustomed place at the table. During the progress of the meal I looked more than once at Miss Lorton -the stout young lady whom the detective had positively asserted was Mary Youngson, the poisoner. The quiet dignity and composure of her manner, the frank, honest expreasion of her face, and its undo-. niable plainness, seemed to me so natural, so real, that I marvelled how the detectiye contrived to pene- trate through eo perfect a disguise. Feeling tired out after breakfast I slept until near noon. . When I went nn Aleck Tom .was siiperinfeniling trepairitig of the spanker boors. "•Tt ie very strange," he said to partition, and looking tbrough it T saes the detectlye in the next apart. anent, kneeling by his open carpet bag, from which now protruded the identical buskinfa---1 could trot miss take them -which Miss M(tetwin bad worn. Spread out before him he held a five thousand dollar bond - evidently the one wy boll had giveu to the young lady. "You see," he whispered. "Was I not right? He has murdered and robbed her." Low as the whisper was the elan evidently heard it, for he pushed the buskins and after them the hpnd hastily down into the bag, which Le then closed. Before I could hinder hire Toni melted out and threw himself against the detecj.iye's door with a force which broke the lock and admitted him into the room. Ile flew at the man, clutched him, and shook him, when the fellowdrew a dirk,but in his futile strugglea to use it -for I held his wrist and soon disarmed bita- ble beard fell ofl, showing it was a false one, and at the saute time his shirt bosom was torn away about the throat. Then both Tom and I uttered a simultaneous cry of sur- prise on perceiving that this pretend- ed detective was a woman over 35 years of age -or, in other words, it was Miss Merwin herself, deprived of the cosmetics and other applianc- es which had, while in the natural attire of her sex, made her look so much younger than she was. The whole truth broke upon Ire at once. This woman, 1 suspected, was in reality Mary Youngson, the murderess, for her face and height now answered to the description I had of her; and we found, while looking .for my son's carpet bag, some articles bearing her 15050, and others marked with that of her vic- tic. Ih fact, afterward, while 5111, she confesed to being Mary Young. 8011. Her motive in disguising herself was apparent. She bad feared, after I discovered the strange shortening of her stature, that I might suspect who she really was ; and besides, the ruse would, she thought, enable her the better to escape from Tom and get off with his $5,000. The mystery of her having, as Miss Merwiu, looked so Much taller than she was, we found explained by her buskins, which proved, like those sometimes worn by actors on the stage, to be pro- vided with veru thick cork soles, to give an appearance of elevation to the stature. On the night she eo astonished me by the difference in her height, she had, in her hurry and alarm, come up in her slippers, having forgotten to put on her buskins. It 18 hardly necessary to say that the detective's warrant she had shown 1.110 wan forged, written by 11r.rself ; nor scarcely need it be mentioned that Toni was now dis- gusted with this woman and entire-. ly cured of his infatuation. Subsequently she died . of a malignant fever while being con- veyed a prisoner back to England-- thue escaping the punishment she so richly merited for her odious crime, although there were not wanting those who stoutly maintained that the charge had by no means been conclusively brought home to her. However, after occupying the public mind for more than the proverbial nine days, the "Youngson Case," as it was called, gave place to a fresh- er sensation. I stated at him in amazement and told him I feared that hie grief had disturbed his reason. How was it possible, I asked him, that the man could have got the b3dy over- board without our knowing it. "IIe could have choked her to death, carried her to ono of the, cah- iu windows, and dropped her through that," he replied. "Impossible," I answered, wit'. - out the splash being overheard by the man at the wheel or by some one on deck. Besides, I doubt if he could have sqeezed the body through either of our cabin windows, which you know are very small." Tom however, seemed to think it could have been done, owing to Miss Merwin being so slender, and in spite of all my efforts I could not entirely rid his mind of that horri- ble idea. Days passed, for we had head• winds, which kept us ofl' our course, but as yet the detective had nothing to tell me, though he said he soon might be able to explain the whole affair. A strange affair enough. N ever before had I such an experience, or anything approaching to it, in any craft I commanded. The passer'. gees were equally puzzled ; it was the talk of all aboard the ship. Aa for Tom, he gredr paler and thinner, wilder every day. At last, one af- ternoon, when we had entered St. George's Channel, he came up to ole and said in a husky voice : "It is as I thought ! Quick ! I have. eotne- thing to show you! Make no noise I" ' 1 followed him. We both worn white.. ,slippera,,..ansle.,wvithout. noise entered the room Miss Merwin had occupied. He pointed to a crevice which he had evidently made in the AGENT C. P.R. Mr. 1'- M. Upton, Agent C. P.
