there was a man who although
a rien o his own,w su e
friend of the princess end i
.a , on t e day the ball was given, the
entire freedom of the castle. He is a.
young officer and nobleman, Lieutenant
A von Schaumberg, and the prince knew
that this young man was being hard
pressed for some debts of honor which
he did not appear to be in a position to
liquidate. The young man went unex-
pectedly to Vienna the day after the
ball and on his return settled his obli-
gations. The princess, from one of her
woznen, got word of her husband's sus-
picion. She went to the prince at once
and told him ebe bad come to hie own
opinion with regard to the lost dia-
monds, She would under leo circum-
stances have detectives about the place,
Then be told her that he had changed
his mind and resolved to engage detect-
ives. So here they were at a deadlock
again. She wrote to her father with
great indignation about the prince's un••
just suspicions, saying Von Schaumberg
was a gentleman in every sense of the
word. I gather that relations between
herself and her husband are somewhat
strained, so I imagine there is touch
more in this matter than the lost dia-
monds."
"You think, then, that she is shield-
ing the lieutenant?"
"Candidly, I do,"
".And you think be stole the dia-
monds?"
"Yes, Ido."
"I don't agree with you. I think still
it was the prince, and I think, besides
this, that he dexterously managed to
throw suspicion on the lieutenant. Have
they called in the detectives yet?"
"No; they are still at a deadlock."
"WeIl, what ain I expected to do?"
"Mr. Briggs cabled to his daughter
—he never writes a letter --that he
would cone over and straighten out the
tangle in 15 minutes. He is certain the
prince stole the diamonds, but he did
not tell his daughter so. He told her lie
was bringing her a present of a new
typewriting machine and was bringing
from Chicago a young woman who could
write shorthand and would look after
the princess' correspondence—act as
secretary, in fact—for it seems the prin-
cess has a larger correspondence than
she can reasonably attend to, and it
seems she yearns for a typewriter. The
old man tells me she is very careless
about her letters, never being able to
find anything she wants and leaving
them about a good deal, so he thinks
she needs some one to look after her cor-
res nde p e
po i c ,and it looks as if her fa-
ther feared she might leave some com-
promising lettter about, so he wishes to
ward off a divorce case."
"No; I thinly you are wrong there.
The father hasn't the slightest suspicion
there conld be anything wrong with
his daughter. It is probable the princess
has written some libelous statements
about her husband, and it is quite like-
ly the prince is a brute and that young
Von Schaumberg is a most charming
person."
"Well, as I was saying," continued
Hardwick, "the old man cables his
daughter that he is bringing her a sec-
retary and a typewriter. He engaged a
female Pinkerton detective to enter the
castle as secretary to the princess, and,
if possible, to solve the mystery. She is
a young woman who, when she Left
Chicago, was very anti -English, but she
became acquainted on the steamer with
a young Englishman who was tremen-
dously taken with her, and eo at Liver-
pool she quite calmly broke her engage-
ment with the old man and fulfilled a
new engagement she had made with the
young, man by promptly marrying him.
Old Briggs has therefore a new type-
writing machine on his hands, and so I
was going to propose to you that you
take the place of the Chicago Pinkerton
person. Briggs has become so disgusted
with all these detective women that he
gave up the idea of sending a female
detective with the machine and doesn't
imagine that whoever is sent will be
either a detective or a newspaper wom-
an. I was introduced to him the other
day by one of those lncky chances that
sometimes put interesting items of news
in our way, and he told me the whole
story and asked me to recommend some
one who wrote shorthand and under-
stood the typewriter. I ant to dine with
him dile evening, and I shall cordially
recommend you. I may say that Brigge
has gone to that celebrated London de-
tective, 11ir. Cadbury Taylor, and has
engaged him to solve the diamond mys-
tery. So, you see, you will have a clear
field. If you can Ieave for the ceetle to-
morrow night, you may have the; pleas-
ure of the company of Mr, Cadbury
Taylor. He isn't visiting the t'astle, but
goes straight to Vienna; se. if you work

Mr. Hempstead arched his eyebrows
a trifle, "I thought you didn't believe

he murmured at last.
"I didn't up till yesterday, but since
then I have had reason to change my

proprietor turned to him and said, "I
don't quite see, Mr. Hardwick, what a
lady can do on this paper outside of the
xegular departments."
"I hardly think there will be any
trouble r e about that, Mr. I3empstead.
For example, who would be more fitted
to attempt the solution of that knotty
question about the Princess von Stein-
heimer's diamonds?"
"By Jove!" cried Hempstead, his
eyes glittering with excitement. "That
is an inspiration. I imagine that if any
one can unravel that mystery it is Miss
Baxter." .

"What about the diamonds of the
princess?" asked Miss Baxter, her cari-
osity piqued by the remark of the editor.
"That is rather a long story," replied
Mr. Hardwick, "and before I begin it
I would like to ask you one or two
questions. Can you manipulate a type-
writer?"
"That depends on whet make it is.
The ordinary typewriter I understand ,
very thoroughly."
"Good 1 Have you any knowledge of

"A workable knowledge. I can write
about 100 words a minute."
"Admirable, admirable! Your com-

"You didn't seem to think so yester-
day, Mr. Hardwick," said the girl, with
sly glance at him.
"WeII, many things have happened
since yesterday. We are now dealing
with today and with Princess von
Steinheimer. "
"She is a German princess, of
course?"
"A German princess, but an Ameri-
can woman. She was a Miss Briggs of
Chicago, a daughter of Briggs, the raiI-
way millionaire, worth somewhere be-
tween twenty and twenty-five millions
—dollars, of course. A year or two ago
she married Prince Konrad von Steiu-

"I suppose so; but, be that as it may,
oho was the only daughter of old Briggs
and had spent a good deal of her time
in Europe, and during her stay in Eu-
rope she had accumulated a vast stock
of diamonds, some of them very notable
stones. I don't know what the whole
collection is worth; some say $1,000,-
000, while others say double that
amount. However that may be, Miss
Briggs became the Princess von Steins
limier and brought to Austria with her
$1,000,000 in gold and diamonds, which
her father gave her as her dowry; but,
of ceurse, being an only child, she will
come in for the rest of the money when
, the old man dies."
"Is he likely to die soon? I don't
suppose the prince gave himself away
for a mere million?"
1 "Oh, you forget the diamonds! .As to
the likelihood of old Briggs' death, it
didn't strike me as imminent when T
had a conversation with him yester-
day.„
"Yesterday? Is he here in London,
then?"
"Yes; he has come over to disentan-
- gle the mystery about the diamonds."
"And what is the mystery? You take
a dreadful longtime to tell a story, Mr.
Hard wick. "
"The story is important, and it must
be told in detail; otherwise you may go
on a long journey for nothing. Are you
taking down what I say in shorthand?
That is right, and if you are wise you
will not transcribe your notes so that
any one could read them ; they are safer
in that form. The Von Steinheimer
fancily have two residences, a house in
Vienna and an ancient castle in the
Tyrol, situated on the heights above
Meran, a most picturesque place, I tine
derstand but t Very shortly you will
know more about it than 1 do, because
The Bugle expects you to go there as its
special. correspondent. Here the dia-
mond robbery took place something like
two months ago, and the affair is still
as great a mystery as ever. The prin-
cess was to open the season at Meran,
which is a fashionable resort, by giving
a fancy dress ball iu Schloss Steinhei-
mer, to which all the Austrian and for-
eign notables were invited.
"It was just before the ball com-
menced that the diamonds were first
missed. In fact, the princess was about
to put them on—she represented some
gorgeously decorated character from the
'Arabian Nights' ---when the discovery
was made that the diamonds were gone.
She was naturally very much upset over
her loss and sent at once for the prince,
her husband, insisting that the police
should be notified immediately and de-
tectives called in, as was perfectly nat-
ural. Now, here comes a strange fea-
ture of the affair, and this is that the
prince positively forbade any publicity
and refused his sanction when she de-
manded that the police should be in-
formed, and yet the prince knew as well
as anybody the very considerable value
of the stones."
"What reason did he give for his re-
fusal?" asked Miss Baxter, looking up
from her notes.
"I sin not quite certain about that,
but I think he said it was infra dig. for
the Steinheimers to can in the police.
Anyhow, it was an excnee which did
not satisfy the princess, but as guests
were arriving and it was desirable
there should be no commotion to mar
the occasion the princess temporarily
yielded to the wish of her husband, and
nothing was said about the robbery.
The great ball was the talk of Meran
for several days, and no one suspected
the private trouble that was going on
underneath the public event. During
these several days the princess insisted
that the aid of the police should be in-
voked, and the prince was equally stren-
uous that nothing should be said about
the matter. Then, quite unexpectedly,
the prince veered completely round and
said he would engage the best detectives
in Europe. Strange to say, when he an-
nonueed this decision to hie wife she
had veered round also and opposed the
calling in of the detectives as strenu-
ously as he had done heretofore,"
"What reason did she give for her
change of front?" asked Miss Jennie.
"She said, I believe, that it was now
too late; that the thieves, whoever they
were, had had time to make away with
their plunder, and there would merely
be a fuss and worry for nothing."
"Do you know, I sun inclined to agree
With her," said the girl.
"Are you? Then till me what you
think of the case as far as you have
got."
"What do you think?"
"I shan't tell you at this stage, he-
Caese I know of further partici-tierswhich I will rive yeti later on. I mere-
ly want your ),pinion now, so that I
may see whether what 1 have to tell

that time you could find out, perhaps,
what he thinks about the case. I know
only this much about his theory, and
that is, he thinks the right place to be-
gin is in Vienna, where some, at least,
of the stones are supposed to have been
pawned."
"Oh, this is a delightful case, and I
ehall enjoy it. Has there been anything
published yet about the robbery?"
"Not a word. Nobody knows any-
thing about it except the prince and
princess, Briggs, myself and yourself
and perhaps one or two of the servants
in the castle --oh, yes, and Cadbury
Taylor."
Miss Baxter was early at the station
before the continental train left. She
walked up and down the platform, hop-
ing to see Mr. Cadbury Taylor, with
whose face and form elle was familiar.
She secured a porter who spoke French
and pretended to him that she knew no
English.
"I desire," she said, "to get into a
first class compartment with a gentle-
man whom I shall point out to you. 1
shall give you 5 shillings, so you must
let me have your whole attention. My
luggage has been labeled and registered;
therefore you will not need to bother
about it, but keep your eye on me and
follow me into whatever carriage I en-
ter, bringing with you the handbag and
this heavy package.'"
The heavy package was a typewriter
in its ease. Shortly before the train left
there sauntered into the station the tall,
thin, well known form of the celebrated
detective. He bad on a light ulster that
reached almost to. his heels, and his
keen, alert face was entirely without
beard or mustache. As he came up the
platform a short, stout man accosted
"I was afraid yet were going to be
late, " said the detdative's friend, "but
I see you are jest in time, as meaI."
"A railway station," said Mr. Cad-
bury Taylor, 'le not the most inspiring
place in London ler the spending of a
spare half hour ; besides, I had some
facts to get together, which are now
complete, and I'm quite ready to go, if
the train is."
"I have secured a smoking compart-
ment here, where we shall be alone."
"That's right, Smith, " said Cadbury
Taylor. "You are always so thought-
ful," and the two men entered the com-
partment 'leg: "'ser.
Just as the greeds were shouting,
"Take your seats, 1i:ease1" Miss Baxter
made a bolt for the compartment in
which the detective and his friend sat
together in opposite corners.
"I beg your pardon," said Smith:
"this is a ameking compartment."

French, and next instant the porter

in the treatment of deafness which is
often a result of catarrh, Hyomei acts
almost immediately upon the znt3amed
membrane and the hearing begins to re-
turn at once.
Miss Meeks of Mattewau, N.Y., says;
"Hyomei is truly wonderful. I have
need it but a short time and see a great
change in my condition. My hearing is
improving rapidly and I bad no idea I
would improve so rapidly in so short a
time, My breath, which was very offen-
sive to myself and others, has lost imbed
odor entirely. I have spent a great deal
of mons with y w t catarrh specialists, and
can truly say that six months of their
treatment is not equal to one of Hyom-
ei."
A complete outfit costa but $1.00, and
consists of an inhaler that can be carried
arouud in the vest pocket, a medicine
dropper, and a bottle of Hyomei. The
inhaler will last a lifetime and there is
enough Hyomei for several weeks treat-
ment. Additional bottles of Hyomei
can be procured for 50 cents Compare
this small expense with the fees charged
by specialists.
