As my ill leek would have it I chose Back Savillo street, and there, half way down that deserted way, I came across < iei.rge Feu ton and his deed of darkness. And now. as I stood there hesitating, thinking I ought to stay, much more than half inclined to take to my heels. I heard footsteps approach- ing, and before I knew who had come a policeman was standing at rny side. Behind him was the tall, lean man of the seedy black suit and the broken nm- ; brella. "Thtro yon are, Robert," said the ' latter. "Caught in the very act. Eob- • bery and murder. He's got the watch in his hand this minute, jeweled in 17 holes, and please to remember that it ' was me that gave tbe information, and i I'm the man that wants the reward. | Dr. Fitzgerald's my namo of T.

I had nothing to do with killing this woman! I simply , found her!" "You hear, Robert," said the shabby man. "He simply found her!" "Where did yon get that watch and chain from?" asked the policeman, ig- noring the last remark. "That blackguard who brought you here attempted to rob the poor woman's "1'ou scotiii(?rc/."' said I. body,'' I said, "and I took it from him. Here," I added, "tako it yourself. I suppose you are the proper person to have it." Tbe policeman lifted the skirt of his heavy coat and deposited the watch in bis trousers pocket. "And Robert," cut iu the shabby man, "in addition to tbe charge of mur- der against this fellow, I shall bring an artiin for defamation of character. You will kindly take note of his language. As a professional man of high standing it is more than I can put np with. As I told you, iny name is Dr. Fitzgerald, T. 0. D., and County Waterford." "Look here," Eaid the policeman, "you Dr. Fitzgerald, or whatever your name is, if you don't mind what you are up to, I'll run you in too." The sound of footsteps drawing rapid- ly near made themselves heard from the direction of South Audley street. The policeman fumbled for his whistle, put it up to his lips and blew shrilly. "Now, look here!" said he to me. "Of course I've got to take you in charge for this 'ere job, so you had best come quietly and make no bones about it." Un the natural impulse of the mo- ment, I started away from him. His hand shot out with more quickness than 1 should have given him credit for, and dropped upon my sleeve with a tight proft ssional grip. "It's no use your trying that move," said he to me, "and let me tell you the more you struggles the wuss it looks. The station is quite a respectable place or I should not be there myself, and if you are innocent it won't hurt you to come along with me. If you ain't inno- cent, you are making yourself look all the blacker by resisting." I saw there was reason in what the man said, and agreed to go with him quietly as soon as the woman's body was taken care of, hut before this could be done a new aspect was put upon the face of matters. The crowd which had been rapidly collecting now surged round us thickly. I had no idea that such a ravenous horde existed within miles. They all seemed wet, squalid and hungry. Their clothes were all black, and above the solid barrier of clothes was an array of white, sickly faces. I had never seen such a crowd; I confess the aspect of it frightened me. Then a Bhout arose, and I thought I recognized the thin, cracked tones of the individual who called himself Dr. Fitzgerald. "He's been murdering a woman, boys! Let's lynch him!" The crowd sent up a yell of cruel ap- proval and surged forward. I saw the white, haggard faces lit up with hate and the lust of revenge. The policeman, without leaving go of my arm, drew out a truncheon with his spare hand and backed up against the wall of the houses. I went with him willingly enough, for I felt that in another mo- ment I might have to fight for my life with a crew of wild human beasts. As regards the policeman, tbe crowd was not ill natnred. T,he innate respect which every Briton ban for the law showed itself even at this moment. They jostled him certainly and tried to separate him from bis capture, but they did not strike him and confined their efforts to aiming blows at myself. Weapon* teemed to come into their bauds as if by inagio sticks, umbrella bandies and mistilea of all deacriptiona.

In sav- age rage the mob would have trodden and torn him out of all semblance to humanity. But relief was at hand. My captor's whistle had bocu heard. It had bei n repeated down the beats, and half a dozen sturdy police were elbowing thiir way through tb.9 crowd. Their ap- proach was heralded by the querulous complaints of those whoso feet were trodden on and those whoso ribs were crushed. But the warcry of the mob was silenced. Until then the frantic yells of "Lynch him—lynch him!" were echoing high between the wet walls of the houses. "Oomo now, get back, the lot of you," said the foremost of the newcom- ers, and the crowd surged back invol- untarily. "Hello! What's this? A wom- an down and you've been trampling on her? You brutes!" The crowd surged back farther, but it did not stand away from us long. New- comers kipt pouring in by regiments from behind, and tbe news spread to them, and once more the cry arose of "Lynch him!" Tho police dragged the woman's, body to my feet and formed round manfully. Though tbey were strong men, yet they were a mere hand- ful compared with the teeming fifties of the mob. Inch by inch tbey were beaten back, struggling and gasping, and for myself death had never loomed so near. But I waa not frighteuid then. I w a s cool and colkcted, and, if the truth be told, not half averse to death. What I bad seen during the last few minutes had dealt me a shock which seemed to have sound nay life. George Feutou bad leeu to me as a brothtr, and now I knew him to be a brutal murderer Liui, as it ha-ii.-: tied, 1 was not des- tined to e-jim- . y my end. in that ob- scure street in May'air The police showed more p-.v ers of =tr_t- gy than 1 gave them credit for One uf them forced < J11 u the door at. oar 1 at ks and hastily luggi.il me in the passage be- yond.

"What the devil do you mean by bringing your ri.j in here?" said he. "T.i prtvtnt another murder being d'.t.e,' retorted the policeman. "I should think," he added, "that one murder is enough to bring this street all the notoriety it has got any use for." "Oh!" said the man. "What do you espect me to dc now? Give you lodging for the night?" "I'll trouble you," said the police- man, "to try no jokes on me. I am rep- resenting the law here, and 1 want you to show me across to your front door and hail a four wheeler as quick as it can be done. Tho sooner you are shut of n.=," he added significantly, "the less chance there will be of having your house pulled down about your ears." The man shuffled off quickly down the oilcloth covered passage. I remember being struck by the terri- ble time he took, fumbling with the bolts and chain of his front door. He was evidently very much scared lest the security of his castle should be further invaded. I remember, too, how horribly long a space elapsed before the cab came round, though, in point of fact, as I have learned since, it rattled u p t o the door in less than a minute from its call. It came none too soon, either, for the tail end of tho mob had begun to suspect our maneuver and bad crossed round from the back street. We drove off a t a tearing gallop, amid a perfect hurricane of yells and hoots, and I believe, too, that some missiles were thrown, for I heard the wretched driver of the cab yell out iu pain. CHAPTER II. AKKESTED. I had now time to collect my thoughts, and a most bewildering set they were. Here was I, Duncan Breit, commander of her majesty's navy, a man of regular and law respecting habits, quietly walk- ing to the First Avenue hotel in Hol- bom, absolutely at peace with the whole world, half dizzy with happiness, and within half au hour of leaving the house at which I had spent the most evontful oveniDg of my life I had coa- AnoUier $rcat crowd collected to gee UM alight. trived to get arrested by the police and almost lynched by a furious inob. 1 waa inspected of murder of the foulest kind, and the only way of clearing luyself was by implicating George Irenton, the man whom of all others in the world I badreasou to wish well by. The per- spiratioM stood thick upon my brow. Tbe whole chain of circumstances aeeaa- ed too horrible to be zeal, teoald have tbosj«ht nyaelf tUvictiiiof aosneas teeordinary hallaetaaiiosi had not tbe fjjwMaee of -tbi- pnHiaaisBi With a»e lav tbe cab ba— ta-rials wridawoa of tbe MSTwaUtf ef iwMatitl VeretSaraefis at half past TO Quit night Keeping back only Georg* Ffnt.o's name, I said that the mrmlfrcr w.i* a man wbwti I bad met with ewldnily in Back Savilh? street; that be was of dark complexion and of middle height, ihst be was standing over the body with the bill of n weapon in his hand; that wh>n I accuspd h i m b e fieri a w a y . rnaSrine in to the darkness, and finally that I b.vl Dot followed biro and didn't know whtre h e ha<3 g n a t , exeppt that his dirwii- n was toward Oxford strep!. "Did you know the man?" the super intendent asked. I had my answer ready and pave it coolly and without hesitation "1 should know him again in an in slant if I saw him. " The snpprintendent made a note of this "And then?" he questioned. "When tho man I took to be tberunr derer ran away, 1 stooped to examine thel-dy. The woman seemed to n.e stone dead, and there was uothiug to to done for her. At that moment a seedy looking individual, who gave his name as Dr. Fitzgerald, name up and tried to rifle the body. That I prevented and strnck him. and in revenge he deuiiuno ed me to the police as the murderer. That is all I have to add to what your own officers have told you already." "You are sure," said tho superin- tendent, "there is nothing more yon wish to add?" "No," said L "That is my plain tale, and my only comment is that you have made a mistake in arresting me. Here is my card, and if you go to any of tbe service clnbs you can hear about me." Tbe superintendent looked at the pasteboard " I t ' s a very unfortunate position for yon to be in, Captain Brett. and i n m y civil capacity, as it might easily have happened to myself, I can sympathize With you extremely, but at the same time ray duty forbids me to let you go at present. We shall push in- quiries iu the morning, go through the formality of verifying your tale, and find ont the identity of tho unlucky wo- man who has been murdered. Yon have no suggestion to make as to tho roasou for this outrage?" "How suould 1 have?" 1 answered. "1 never saw the wretched woman in my life before." "No, I don't mean that, ' said the superintendent. "What I was wauting to kuow was, did yon hear any sound? of a quarrel or a scuffle as you came down Back Saville street?" "No," I answered, "and if there had been any such sounds I don't think I should have heard them. My mind was very fully occupied with something else. Indeed if it had not beeu I should not- hftVr r o m e that way at all To be pre- cUe. 1 hail lost my road. " •Very well, Captain Brett. I think w& have nothing more to say to one an- other, but if I were you I would writo to some frieuds to appear here tomorrow to givo evidence both as to y - move- ments this evening and to ar testi- mony to your reputation. Your solicitor would probably be very useful to you. I'm afraid I shall only be ablo to give you poor accommodation for the night, but you must blame our regulations for it and not me." I thanked the worthy official for his courtesy, and, acting on his advice, wrote to Butterton, my legal man, and to half a dozen friends I knew I could rely upon if they were in town. I was then conducted to a cheerless cell. On my way thither I passed the body of the murdered woman, now lying upon a Etretcherand covered with a sheet. This sight completed the unstringing of m y nerves, and I passed tbe night feverish- ly pacing my room, never even trying to court sleep. As I walked to aud fro between the cold, bleak w^lls on that horrible night my feelings might indeed be better im- agined than described. Event had fol- lowed event with sickening, rapidity, and now, to crown all, I was the neigh- bor of thieves and rogues, under lock and key at a police station. The papers of the morning would tell the whole world of my arrest. The news would carry consternation to trie hearts of m y relatives', and my friends would be aghast at the tidings. Some there wero who would be ready to believe the worst, but there were others I knew who could not doubt my innocence. One dear heart would bleed for me. That such an event should happen at all was bad enough, but that- it should occur on the night when a world of bliss had seemingly opened for us both was hor- rible indeed. And the awfuluess lay in the fact that my innocence could alone he proved by evidence of George Fen- ton's guilt. George Featon a murderer! The thought was terrible. What in heaven's name could have impelled him to such a deed of blackness? And who was the woman? Stop! Of course it must bo. Why had I not guessed it before? She was in ail probability the one who had caused EO much heartburning in the Fen- ton family. The unfortunate fellow had fallen in love with a girl much below him in station—one who was, in fact, in domestic service. His infatuation had been discovered at home, but all the protests and entreaties of his family had failed to induce him to take a sane view of matters. He loved her and would not givo her up. Then why bad he murder- ed her? Indeed what grounds had I for thinking this was the woman? My thoughts were ia a hopeless jumble. They crowded one ou tho ether in des- perate confusion, and I felt as if I were going mad. At last, and not too soon, relief came. As tbe dawn was breaking nature could no longer hold oat under the strain, and I sank on tho coarse mat- tress in a fitful sleep. T h e first to greet me in the morning was Butterton. He had hurried to me directly he had read the news in the papers, aud before my letter bad reached him. A few words were enough to ex- plain my position to him, and he left me to do what he could to procoro my release. Tho police had been active overnight. Tho result of their inquiries at Do Vero Gardens bore out my statement; but, above all, traces of tbe murderer were not wanting It appears that the un- happy man only left me to be pursued. He tried to get rid of the broken hilt, but it was picked up on tbe pavement. He managed to outdistance his pursuers; he was heard of afterward in Oxford street, and there, for the nonce, the trace was lost. These incidents were circumstantial evidence of my inno- cence. Indeed all against me was the word of a questionable character who had disappeared. Tho testimony of my old chief, Admiral Yeo, aud the other influential frieuds who burned to Kty call v.as hardly necessary to complete the evidence iu my favor Bo before noon 1 1,-fr. U10 statiuu a freo man, but I returned to my hotel with the terrible cousciousne&s that the n.ur- derer of this as yet unknown woman was George Fentou, the brothtr of the girl who, only a few hours Lofore, hud promised to be ray wife.

When a young man applies to a business man for a position, his personal appearance has a deal to do with the outcome. " Personal appearance" does not -mean dress alone.

As my ill leek would have i t I chose Back Savillo street, and there, half way down tha t deserted way, I came across < iei.rge Feu ton and his deed of darkness. And now. as I stood there hesitat ing, th ink ing I ought to stay, much more than half inclined to take to my heels. I heard footsteps approach­ing, and before I knew who had come a policeman was s tanding at rny side. Behind h im was the tall, lean man of the seedy black sui t and the broken nm-

; brella. " T h t r o yon are, R o b e r t , " said the

' latter. " C a u g h t in the very act. Eob-• bery and murder . He ' s got the watch in his hand th is minute , jeweled in 17 holes, and please to remember tha t i t

I " I h e n by warn yon, " said ho to me, ' with musoivis slowness, " t h a t any th ing [you may say now is l iable to be used • against you a f t e r w a r d .

I s imply

man. " H e simply found h e r ! " " W h e r e did yon get tha t watch and

chain f rom?" asked the policeman, ig­noring the last remark.

" T h a t blackguard who brought you here a t tempted to rob the poor woman ' s

"1'ou scotiii(?rc/."' said I. body, ' ' I said, " a n d I took i t from him. H e r e , " I added, " t a k o it yourself. I suppose you are the proper person to have i t . "

Tbe policeman lifted the skir t of his heavy coat and deposited the watch in bis trousers pocket.

" A n d R o b e r t , " cut iu the shabby man, " i n addit ion to tbe charge of mur­der against this fellow, I shall bring an a r t i i n for defamation of character. You wil l kindly take note of his language. As a professional man of high standing it is more than I can put np with. As I told you, iny name is Dr. Fi tzgerald, T. 0 . D., and County Wate r fo rd . "

"Look h e r e , " Eaid the policeman, "you Dr. Fitzgerald, or whatever your name is, if you don ' t mind wha t you are up to, I ' l l run you in t o o . "

The sound of footsteps d rawing rapid­ly near made themselves heard from the direction of South Audley street. The policeman fumbled for his whist le , put it up to his l ips and blew shri l ly .

" N o w , look h e r e ! " said he to me. "Of course I 've got to take you in charge for this 'ere job, so you had best come quietly and make no bones about i t . "

Un the na tu ra l impulse of the mo­ment, I s tarted away from him. His hand shot out wi th more quickness than 1 should have given him credit for, and dropped upon my sleeve wi th a t ight proft ssional grip.

" I t ' s no use your t ry ing tha t move , " said he to me, " a n d let me tell you the more you struggles the wuss i t looks. The station is qui te a respectable place or I should not be there myself, and if you are innocent it w o n ' t h u r t you to come along w i t h me. If you a i n ' t inno­cent, you are mak ing yourself look all the blacker by r e s i s t i ng . "

I saw there was reason in w h a t the man said, and agreed to go wi th h im quietly as soon as the woman ' s body was taken care of, hut before this could be done a new aspect was pu t upon the face of mat te rs . The crowd which had been rapidly collecting now surged round us thickly. I had no idea tha t such a ravenous horde existed w i th in miles. They al l seemed wet, squalid and hungry . Thei r clothes were a l l black, and above the solid barrier of clothes was an ar ray of whi te , sickly faces. I had never seen such a c rowd; I confess the aspect of i t frightened me. Then a Bhout arose, and I thought I recognized the thin, cracked tones of the individual who called himself Dr. Fi tzgerald.

" H e ' s been murder ing a woman, boys! Le t ' s lynch h i m ! "

The crowd sent up a yell of cruel ap­proval and surged forward. I saw the whi te , haggard faces l i t up wi th ha te and the lust of revenge. The policeman, w i thou t leaving go of m y arm, drew out a t runcheon w i t h h is spare hand and backed up agains t the wa l l of the houses. I wen t wi th h im wi l l ing ly enough, for I felt t h a t in another mo­ment I m i g h t have to fight for my life w i t h a crew of wi ld h u m a n beasts.

As regards the policeman, tbe crowd was no t i l l na tnred . T,he inna te respect wh ich every Br i ton ban for the law showed itself even at t h i s moment . They jostled h im certainly and t r ied to separate h im from bis capture, but they did not s t r ike him and confined their efforts to aiming blows at myself.

our blows a'hd maddened w i t h £Be~?'ist of bat t le . If either of us had gone down, be would not have risen again. In sav­age rage the mob would have trodden and torn him out of all semblance to humanity. But relief was at hand. My captor's whistle had bocu heard. It had bei n repeated down the beats, and half a dozen sturdy police were elbowing t h i i r way through tb.9 crowd. Thei r ap­proach was heralded by the querulous complaints of those whoso feet were trodden on and those whoso ribs were crushed. Bu t the warcry of the mob was silenced. Un t i l then the frantic yells of " L y n c h h im—lynch h i m ! " were echoing h igh between the wet wal ls of the houses.

"Oomo now, get back, the lot of y o u , " said the foremost of the newcom­ers, and the crowd surged back invol­untar i ly . " H e l l o ! W h a t ' s this? A wom­an down and you 've been t r ampl ing on her? You brutes!"

The crowd surged back farther, but i t did not stand away from us long. New­comers kipt pouring in by regiments from behind, and tbe news spread to them, and once more the cry arose of " L y n c h h i m ! " Tho police dragged the woman's, body to my feet and formed round manfully. Though tbey were strong men, yet they were a mere hand­ful compared wi th the teeming fifties of the mob. Inch by inch tbey were beaten back, s t ruggl ing and gasping, and for myself death had never loomed so near.

" W h a t the devil do you mean by bringing your r i . j in he re?" said he.

"T. i p r t v t n t another murder being d'.t.e,' retorted the policeman. " I should t h i n k , " he added, " t h a t one murder is enough to bring th is street all the notoriety i t has got any use fo r . "

" O h ! " said the man. " W h a t do you espect me to dc now? Give you lodging for the n igh t?"

" I ' l l t rouble y o u , " said t he police­man, " t o t ry no jokes on me.

Tho sooner you are shut of n.=," he added significantly, " t h e less chance there wil l be of having your house pul led down about your e a r s . "

The man shuffled off quickly down the oilcloth covered passage.

I remember being struck by the terr i ­ble t ime he took, fumbling w i t h the bolts and chain of his front door. He was evidently very much scared lest the security of his castle should be fur ther invaded. I remember, too, how horr ibly long a space elapsed before the cab came round, though, in point of fact, as I have learned since, i t rat t led u p to the door in less than a minu te from its call.

I t came none too soon, either, for the tail end of tho mob had begun to suspect our maneuver and bad crossed round from the back street. W e drove off a t a tear ing gallop, amid a perfect hur r icane of yells and hoots, and I believe, too, that some missiles were thrown, for I heard the wretched driver of the cab yell out iu pain.

I thanked the wor thy official for h i s courtesy, and, act ing on h i s advice, wrote to But ter ton, m y legal man, a n d to half a dozen friends I knew I could rely upon if they were in town. I was then conducted to a cheerless cell. On m y way th i t he r I passed the body of t he murdered woman, now lying upon a Etretcherand covered w i t h a sheet. T h i s s ight completed the uns t r i ng ing of my nerves, and I passed tbe n igh t feverish­ly pacing my room, never even t ry ing to court sleep.

As I walked to aud fro between the cold, bleak w^lls on t h a t horr ible n igh t my feelings migh t indeed be better im­agined than described. Event had fol­lowed event w i th sickening, rapidi ty , and now, to crown all, I was the neigh­bor of thieves and rogues, under lock and key a t a police stat ion. The papers of t he morning would tell the whole world of my arrest . The news would c a r r y c o n s t e r n a t i o n t o t r ie h e a r t s of m y relatives', and my friends would be aghast a t the t idings. Some there wero who would be ready to believe the worst, but there were others I knew who could not doubt my innocence. One dear hear t would bleed for me. T h a t such an event should happen at all was bad enough, but that- it should occur on the n igh t when a world of bliss had seemingly opened for us both was hor­r ible indeed. And the awfuluess lay in the fact tha t my innocence could alone he proved by evidence of George Fen-ton 's gui l t .

George Fea ton a m u r d e r e r ! T h e thought was terr ible. W h a t in heaven ' s name could have impelled h i m to such a deed of blackness? And who was the woman? S top! Of course i t m u s t bo. Why had I not guessed i t before? She was in a i l probabi l i ty the one who had caused EO much hea r tburn ing in the Fen-ton family. The unfor tunate fellow had fallen in love w i t h a gir l much below h im in stat ion—one w h o was, in fact, in domestic service. H i s infatuat ion had been discovered a t home, but a l l the protests and entreat ies of h i s family had failed to induce h i m to take a sane view of mat te rs . He loved he r and would not givo her up . Then w h y bad he murder ­ed her? Indeed w h a t grounds h a d I for th ink ing th i s was the woman? My though t s were i a a hopeless jumble. They crowded one ou tho e ther in des­perate confusion, and I fel t as if I were going mad. At last, and not too soon, relief came. As tbe dawn was breaking na ture could no longer hold oa t under the strain, and I sank on tho coarse mat­tress in a fitful sleep.

The first to greet me in the morning was Butter ton. He had hurr ied to me directly he had read the news in the papers, aud before my let ter bad reached him. A few words were enough to ex­plain my position to him, and he left me to do w h a t he could to procoro my release.

Tho police had been active overnight . Tho resul t of their inqui r ies a t Do Vero Gardens bore out my s ta tement ; but, above all , t races of tbe murdere r were not wan t ing I t appears t h a t the un­happy man only left me to be pursued. He tried to get r id of the broken hi l t , bu t i t was picked u p on tbe pavement . He managed to outdis tance his pursuers; he was heard of af terward in Oxford street, and there, for the nonce, the trace was lost. These incidents were c i rcumstant ia l evidence of my inno­cence. Indeed all agains t me was the w o r d of a q u e s t i o n a b l e c h a r a c t e r w h o had disappeared. Tho test imony of my old chief, Admira l Yeo, aud the other influential frieuds who b u r n e d to Kty call v.as hardly necessary to complete the evidence iu my favor
