ANNIEBAMIEB: JORNLI8T
BY ROBERT BARR.
Jennie, speaking slowly and with diffi-
culty.
"Because," said the detective, with
the air of a man who knows whereof
he speaks, "he is in love with her."
"What makes you think that?"
"I don't think it. I know it. Listen
to his description of her."
The detective chose a paper from
among his pile of documents, folded,
labeled and docketed for reference.
"'The girl is of average height, or
perhaps a trifle taller than the average:
carries herself superbly, like a born
duchess. Her eyes are of a deep, velvety
black' "-
"Dear mel" cried the girl. "He de-
scribes her as if she were a cat."
"Wait a moment," said the detect-
ive.
"I don't see much trace of love in
that," continued Jennie breathlessly.
"Wait a moment," repeated the de-
tective. " 'They light up and sparkle
with merriment, and they melt into the
most entrancing tenderness.' "
"Good gracious!" cried Jennie, ris-
ing. "The conceit of the man is illimit-
able. Does he mean to intimate that he
saw tenderness for himself in the eyes
of a woman he had met for an hour or
two?"
"That's just it," said the detective,
laughing. "You see, the man is head
over ears in love. Please sit down again,
?hiss Baxter, and listen. I know this
sentimental kind of writing nmst be
irksome to a practical woman like your-
self, but in our business we cannot neg-
lect even the slightest detail. Let's see,
where was I? -'tenderness,' oh, yes(
'Her hair is of midnight darkness, in-
clined to ripple, with little whiffs of
curls imperiously defying restraint
about her temples. Her complexion is
as pure as the dawn, touched now and
then with n blush as delicate as the
petal of a rose.' "
"Absurd I" cried Jennie impatient-
ly. "Tlie complexion of a woman at a
ball! Of course she put it on for the
occasion."
"Of course," agreed the detective.
"But that merely shows yon how deep-
ly in love ho is. Lord Donal is quite a
young xnan. He came up to this room
to consult with me, and of course he
doesn't know the difference between a
complexion developed in a Surrey lane
and one purchased in New Bond street. "
"Still, the blushing would seem to
indicate that the complexion was gen-
uine, " retorted Jennie, apparently quite
unflattered by Mr. Taylor's agreement
with the theory she herself had put for
ward.
"Oh, I don't know about thatl I be-
lieve modern science enables an enam-
eled woman to blush at will. I would
not be sure of it, because it is outside
of my own line of investigation, but I
have understood such is the case."
"Very likely," assented Jennie.
"What is that you have at the bottom
of your packet?"
"That," said the detective, drawing
it forth and handing it to the girl, "is
her glove."
Jennie picked up the glove -which,
alas, she had paid for and only worn on
one occasion -and smoothed it out be-
tween her fingers. It was docketed "G---
• Made
G-
Made by Gaunt et Cie. Boulevard Haus-
rnann : purchased in Paris by one alleg-
ing herself to be the Princess von Stein-
heiiner•. "
"Yon have found out all about it."
said Jennie as site finished reading
the label.
"Yes; it is our business to do so, but
the glove has not been of much assist-
ance to us."
"How did he say he became possessed
of the glove?" asked the girl innocent-
ly. "Did she give it to hint?"
"No; lie tore it from her hand as she
was leaving him in the carriage. It
seemed to me not a very gentlemanly
thing to do. but of course it was not
my business to tell Lord Donal that."
"So the glove has not been of much
assistance to you'( Tell me. then. what
you have done, ;and perhaps I shall be
the Better able to advise you."
"We have done everything that sug-
gested itself. We traced the alleged
princess from the Hotel Bristol in Paris
to Claridge's in London. I have a very
clever woman in Paris who assisted
me, and she found where the gloves
were bought and where the dress was
made. Did I read yon Lord Donal's de-
scription of the lady's costume?"
"No; never mind that. Go on with
your story."
Sallow
"Well, Claridge's. provided carriage,
coachman and footman to take her to
the ball, and these returned with her
eome time about midnight. Now, here
a curious thing happened -the lady
ordered a hansom as she passed the
night porter and shortly after packed
off her maid in the cab."
"Her maid!" echoed Jennie.
"Yes; the maid came down in ordi-
nary dress shortly after, deeply veiled,
and drove away in the hansom. The
lady paid her bill next morning and
went to the 8 o'clock Paris express,
with carriage and pair, coachman and
footman. Of course it struck me that
it might bo the lady herself who had
gone off in the cab, but a moment's re-
flection showed me that she was not
likely to leave the hotel in a cab at
midnight and allow her maid to take
the carriage in state next morning."
"That doesn't appear reasonable,"
murmured Jennie. "You made no at-
tempt, then, to trace the maid?"
"Oh, yes, we did! We found the cab-
man who took her from Claridge's, and
he left her at Charing Cross station,
but there all trace of her vanishes. She
probably left on one of the late trains -
there are only a few after midnight --
to some place out in the country. The
lady took u first class ticket to Paris
and departed alone next morning by
the 8 o'clock continental express. My
assistant discovered her and took a
snap shot of her as she was walking
down the boulevard. Here is the pic-
ture."
The detective handed Miss Baxter an
instantaneous view of one of the boule-
vards taken in bright sunshine. The
principal figure in the foreground Jen-
nie had no difficulty in recognizing as
her own maid, dressed in that chic fash-
ion which Parisian women affect.
"She seems to answer the descrip-
tion," said Jennie.
"So I thought," admitted the detect-
ive, "and I sent the portrait to Lord
Donal. See what he has written on the
back."
Jennie turned the picture over, and
there under the inscription, "H -Sup-
posed photo of the missing woman,"
was written in a bold hand. "Bosh(
Read my description of the girl. This
is evidently some Paris lady's maid."
"Well, what did you do when you
got this picture back?" said Jennie.
1 "I remembered you and went to the
office of The Daily Bugle. This brings
ns to the present moment. You have
now the whole story, and I shall be very
pleased 'to listen to any suggestions you
are good enough to offer."
The girl sat where she was for a few
moments and pondered over the situa-
tion. The detective, resting his elbow
on the table and his chin in his hand,
regarded her with eager anticipation.
The more Jennie thought over the mat-
ter the more she was amazed at the man
before her, evho seemed unable to place
two and two together. He had already
spoken of the account of the ball which
had appeared in The Daily Bugle, of
its Accuracy and excellence. He knew
that she was a member of The Bugle
staff, yet it had never occurred to him
to inquire who wrote that description.
He knew also that she had been a guest
at the Schloss Steinheimer when the in -
"That," said the detective, "is her glove."
vitation to the ball must have reached
the Lr•incess. These facts were so plain-
ly in evidence that the girl was afraid
to speak lest some chance word would
form the connecting link between the
detective's mind and the seemingly pal-
pable facts. At last she looked up, the
color coming and going in her cheeks,
as Lord Donal had so accurately de-
scribed it.
"I don't think I can be of any assist-
ance to you in this crisis, Me. Taylor.
You have already done everything that
human ingenuity can suggest,"
"Yes, I have -everything that my
human ingenuity can suggest. But does
nothing occur to yon? Have yon no
theory to put forward?"
"None that wonld be of any practical
Complexion i advantage. Is Lord Donal certain that
yOU can read in the face the de-
rangements of the liver. A
torpid, sluggish liver leaves the bile
in the blood to poison the whole sys-

it was not the princess herself whom be
met? Are you thoroughly convinced
that there was really an impersona-
tion ?"
"What do yon mean, Miss Baxter?"
"Well, you met Prince von Stein-
heimer. What did yon think of him?"
"I thought him an overbearing bully,
if you ask Inc. I can't imagine what
English or American girls see in those
foreigners to cause then( to marry them.
The prince was very violent -practi-
cally ordered are out of the castle, spoke
to his father-in-law in the most per-
emptory manner, and I could easily see
the princess was frightened out of her
wits."
"A very accurate characterization of
his highness, Mr. Taylor. Now, of
course, the princess being a woman -
and a young woman --would naturally
be very anxious to attend the Duchess
of Chiselhurst's ball, wouldn't she?"
"One would think so."
"And, as you have jest said, she has
a bear of a husband, a good deal older
than herself, who dove not in the least
care for such things as the function to
which the princess wad invitast Is it
TUE SVIIWTll AM
net just possible that the princess ac-
tually attended the ball, but, for rea-
sons of her own, desired to keep the
fact of her presence there a secret? And
yen must remember that Lord Donal
Stir;ia, had not seen the princess for
Sive years."
"For five years!" said the detective
sharply, "flow did you learn that,
Miss Baxter?"
"Well, you know," murmured the
girl, with a gasp, "that he met her last
in Washington, and the princess has
not been in America for five years; so,
you see" --
"Oh, I was not aware that be had
met her in America at all! In fact,
Lord Donal said nothing much about
the princess. All his talk had reference
to this lady who impersonated her."
Jennie leaned hack ix her chair,
closed her eyes for a moment and
breathed quickly.
"I am afraid," she said at last, "that
I do not remember with sufficient mi-
nuteness the details you havo given me
to bo able to advise. I would merely
suggest that Lord Donal met the prin-
cess herself at the Duchess of Chisel-
hsrst's ball. The princess naturally
would wish to mislead him regarding
her identity, and so, if he had not met
her for some time -say two years, or
three years, or five years, or whatever
the period may be -it is quite possible
that the princess has changed greatly in
the interval, and perhaps she was not
reluctant to carry on n flirtation with
the young man, your client. Of course
she could not allow it to go further than
the outside of the door of the Duke of
Chiselhurst's town house, for you must
remember there was her husband in
the background, a violent man, as you
have said, and Lord Donal must have
thoroughly angered the princess by
what you term his rudeness in tearing
off her glove, and now the princess will
never admit that she was at the ball, so
it seems to me that you are wasting
your time in a wild goose chase. Why,
it is absurd to think, if there had been
a real disappearing woman, that you,
The handle of tlec inner room turned.
with all your experience and all your
facilities. should not have unearthed
her long ago. Yon said at the beginning
that nothing was more difficult than to
disappear. Very well, then, why have
you been baffled? Simply because the
princess herself attended the ball and
there has been no disappearing lady at
all." .
The detective, with great vehemence,
brought down his fist on the table.
"By Jovol" ho cried. "I believe yon
are right. I havo been completely blind-
ed, the more so that I have the clew to
the mystery right here under my own
eyes."
He fumble:1 for a moment and brought
forth a letter from his pile of docu-
ments.
"Here is a note from St. Petersburg,
written by Lord Donal himself, saying
the princess had sent him the compan-
ion glove to the one you have now in
your hand. Ho says he is sure the prin-
cess knows who her impersonator was,
but that she won't tell, and, although I
had read this note, it never struck me
that the princess herself was the wom-
an. Miss Baxter, you have solved the
puzzle!"
"I should be glad to think so," re-
plied the girl, rising, "and I am very
happy if I have enabled you to give up
a futile chase."
"It is as plain as daylight," replied
the detective. "Lord Donal's descrip-
tion fits the princess exactly, and yet I
never thought of it before."
Jennie hurried away from the detect-
ive's office haling in the belief that eh

Very often they think it is from so-called

than they think. Women suffer from backache,

and they do not have "female trouble." why,
then, blame all your trouble to remalo Disease?
With healthy kidneys, few women will ever

had not betrayed herself, although she
was not blind to the fact that her escape
was due more to good luck than to any
presence of mind of her own, which had
nearly deserted her at one or two points
in the conversation. When Mr. Hard-
wick saw her, he asked how mach space
he would have to reserve for the ro-
mance in high life. But she told him
there was nothing in the case, so far as
she could see, to interest any ease
reader.
Here matters rested for a fortnight.
Then the girl received an urgent note
from Cadbury Taylor, asking her to
call at his office next day promptly at 4
o'clock. It wits, very important, he said,
and he hoped she would on no account
disappoint him. Jennie's first impulse
was not to go, but she was so anxious
to learn what progress the detective had
made in the case, fearing that at last
lie might have got on the right track,
that she felt it would be unwise to take
the risk of not seeing him. If his sus-
picions were really aroused, her absence
might serve as an excuse to confirm
them. Exactly at 4 o'clock next after-
noon she entered his office and found
him, to her relief, alone. He sprang up
from his table on seeing her and said in
a whisper: "I am so glad yon have
come. I am in rather a quandary. Lord
Donal Stirling is in London on a flying
visit. He called here yesterday."
The girl caught her breath, but said
nothing.
"I explained to him the reasons I
have for believing that it was actually
the Princess von Steinheimer whom he
met at the Duchess of Chiselhurst's
ball. He laughed at me; there was no
convincing hint. He said that theory
was more absurd than sending him
the picture of a housemaid as that of
the lady he had met at the ball. I used
all the arguments which you had used,
but he brushed them aside as of no
consequence, and somehow the ease did
not appear to be as clear as when you
propounded your theory."
"Well, what then?" asked the girl.
"Why, then I asked him to come up
here at 4 o'clock and hear what an as-
sistant of urine would say about the
case. '
"At 4 o'clock!" cried the girl in ter-
ror. "Theo he mny be here at any mo-
mcnt."
"He is here now; be is in the next
room. Colne in, and I will introduce
you, and then I want you to tell him
all the circumstances which lead yon
to believe that it was the princess her-
self whom he met. I am sure yon can

' ly that you will succeed in bringing

eag. Yon will try, won't you, Miss

"Oh, no, 110, no!" cried the girl. "I
am not going to admit to any one that
I have been acting as a detective's as-
sistant. You had 110 right to bring mo
here. I must go at once. If Thad known
this, I would not have cine."
"It won't take you five minutes,"
pleaded Cadbury Taylor. "He is at this
moment waiting for yon. I told him
you would be here at 4."
"I can't help that. You had no right
to make an appointment for me with-
out my knowledge and consent."
Taylor was about to speak when the
handle of the inner room turned.
"I say, detective." remarked Lord
Donal in a voice of some irritation,
"you should have assistants who aro
more punctual. I am a very busy man
and nmst leave for tit. Petersburg to-
night, so I can't spend all my time in
your office, yon know."
"I am slue I beg your pardon, my

"It was this way," said the clerk.
"A young lady came in and stood over
by the State street door, waiting for
somebody, I suppose. The pinmeit of
her hat curled down behind and the tip
of a plume touched the flame in the

moment the hat was aflame, women

who was on fire was shrieking like an

bit Martini in the eye, the girl in the

Brazil Diamonds.
It is not generally remembered that
Brazil was at one time the most im-
portant diamond producing country in
the world. Between 1772 and 1843
1,354,700 carats were taken out by the
"Real Extraccao." Since that day min-
ing has been carried on exclusively by
private individuals and mostly on a
shall scale. The total production of
Brazil up to 1880 is estimated by M.
Garceix at 2Si tons. It is impossible to
form an accurate estimate of the pres-
ent production, but it is probably about
40,000 carats a year, including the
Bahia diamond fields.

A musician died, and his sleeping
soul waited at the gate.
Then said the angel, "Has this man
sinned?"
"Yes," answered the voices of the
neighbors. "He has played his own
works all day."
"What shall be his punishment?"
asked the angel.
"Let him hear those works forever!"
cried the voices.
So the soul was awakened in hell by
the chanting of its own music.

Which snould the grerter glory yield?
Enrth showed so fair, her thousand things
Of be'tuty born, of lovliest hue;
Whale little clouds, hke a.nitel wioga,
entice flittiug o'er the boundless blue.
Then, as we gazed, the Picture moved
Towards us; rand tee perfect grew
To yet more perfect : and it loved,
The Pictnie loved us, the and you.
Now all is altered; faded, dim,
The carmine tints are turned to gray;
Wni'e 'cillter, Itke a „•'igen grim.
With iron hands shuts in the day.
Yet still we wander. you and I,
With spirits tree, not winrer•bonnd;
To as the sun is stela on high,
And garlands blossom underground.
Earth is sloepintn all is there,
Her fruit, her flowers. in long array;
Her robe of state, rsted jeweis rare,
To wait her coronation -day.
For sons may rise, nett suns may set,
And summer leaves lie reutpest•strewn,
But yon and 1 can neer forget
The glories we have loved and known.
