'11 An Old Lawyer's Story A jjreat many e:irs aj;o, while I was comiiarativjcly Vyoiiiig man, ami fetill iiiiiiiarrcitl, Iresiiled 111 certain city ol" 1 Villi- lvaiiiu, ami enjoyed the rep utation of beinj; the t-leverat lawyer ever known there. It is not for me to s.:iy the prai-e w-t- merited, but I cer tainly found loop-holes of e-cape for those whom 1 defended, which sur prised even my fellow lawyers. I pos-t-eysed by nature tho-c ijualities which would liao made an cNeellent dctei--tive, and I wa-a thorough student of the law. There w a- no mystery about it, but amoii!r the iyu rant eltis-c-i I had gained a reputation for more than human knowledge. I'd'hap? it was not polite for them lo cay that the devil helped, hut they did. However. I began to tell you about Aladame jlattcaii. She wa- an old lady, who owned a little house in the suburbs of the city, .-he her-Olf wa-of American birth, but her hu-band had been a Frcucliinnii, and so the title Miidniuc had hecn he stowed iinon her. Hie w as now a wid ow, and her daughter Gabrielle and son llenry were her only living rela tions. Her income was, lmt Mender, and -he eked il out by taking a i'v boarders, generally steady old people w ho had known her for year?. Thee re-pected and liked her. There had been two sudden deaths in her hou-e. Each time the iciim wa- a stranger who bad come at night, and wa- found dead in hi- bed in the morning.

Having been found 111 her possession. ' I'ctorc I had lecovered from the hock of this terrible piece of news, a 1 message came to me from Madame ' Matteau. She desired to see me. Of ' coaisc 1 went at once. 1 She had been taken to pri-ou, and I found her in a little room with a bar I red window. d an insufficient lire on 1 the hearth. '1 logs had burnt in two , upon the andiioii-,aud the whitcashc i were scattered over the health. Al I most in them sat Madame Matteau, in i her widow's drc-ss of sombre black. Hie shook violently from head to foot, and her face w a deadly pale as she turned it toward me and held out her hand. "O, thank heaven, ou have come!" she said : "1 know that vou can save me. Is it not horrible? ilow could 1 kill a man; Why should I ? Why do people come to my house to die? To die horribly, with black faces and star ing eves, a-if some one had choked them"? Ugh! and he was a pretty voting man the night before. Oh, good heaven, how horrible!' I -in down beside her. I took her hand. "Madame Matteau, be calm, collect voui-self. As your lawyer. I must know all. Tell ine from iirst to last, what happened what was said, what wn-done. If oil " I paused ; her black e.vc had lla-hed upon ine. I could not ak her wheth er she had any confession to make. 1 saw that she had not. Unless she was the best actress that ever lired, Mad ame Matteau was innocent of an ciimc. "If on h o an suspicions.' I added,""teil incin all to me." "There i no one to suspect," sobbed the poor woman. "In the house were Gttbrielle, my daughter, whom you have seen ; old Hannah the cook. "Mr. and Mrs. Reau champ. friends of my poor, dear hus band in hit ho hood the best, kiukc-t people, Mr. Gray, .1 very old man, too teeblo to leave the house, poor deform ed Mis- Norman, and the librarian.

As 1 came down I met a gentleman in the hall. lie inquired for Mr. Glenn. That was the new comer's name. I sent Hannah to wake him. She could not do so, and grew alarmed. She had a key that would open the door, and used it. The next thing that I knew we were all in the room and the windows were all wide open, and the doctor had been sent for: and the voting man who had called-' was screaming that his brother had been choked to death: and then there was an inquest, and they arrested me. The brother said that the first thing that he noticed was that I wore Mr. li'lenn's watch and seals. I had for gotton it in my terror. 'rio Hannah had a key to the room? I said. "Yes. at least it was a key that would open it. It was the key "to Mr. 15rasford's door. She knocked the other out with a stick and put that in.'' "The people who were there 011 that night were your borders when the oth er men where lonmi dead.'" I asked. "Oh. yc.': "Aunt Hannah was there also?" 1 asked. "All my married life Hannah has liv ed with me.'' "Your daughter oversees your house hold in your absence?' 'Ye-, poor child, with Hannah's help." I thought a littlc'while. 'Madame," I said, "there is some strange mystery in this a flair. I do not despair oi proving to all the world your innocence. Meanwhile be as calm its pos-iblc, and endeavor to remem ber everything connected with the sudden deaths that have occurred in your house. Thcincedantthat seems of "the least importance may really be of Ihe most immense value.' So I left and went home. Strange enough, on the wav I met the doctor who hail been called in. He was a dull heavy sort of .1 person, considerably given to beer-drinking, and my opin ion of his ability was not very great. However, I questioned him on the sub ject, and he replied : "Well, you see, 1 don't say the old woman murdered him. If "she did, I should say it was by sitting on him, or smothering him with the bolsters. I suppose the cause of his death wa-- as phyxia. -Well, thou, what is asphyxia!' I akcd. "Why, too little breath to keep one living. He died because he was short of breath. I wash my hands of that matter. Only there is the watch, that looks dark." I had learned nothing from the doc tor. The coroner lived near me. His jury had been twelve of the most igno rant men in town. This is all he told mc : "He wa smothered, that man was ; so were the other two. .Men don't smother themselves. We made it in scrutable rrovidence t'other time. A"c made it murder Ibis time. That there watch, you know." Thu-," without anv new light I went home and formed my plans. Thciu wtis but one way in which to penetrate the nnstci'. I must enter the house: I nuisi see the people there; I must penetrate to the room in which these men had died so -nddently, and I must not be known in my real character. That Madame Matteau was innocent, I fully believed, but that some one be neath her roof was guilty I had no doubt. It might be the librarian, Mr. Urassford, w hose keys fitted the dead man'- door. It was possible but no, I would not harbor a mad superstition. There could be no supernatural pow er beneath w Inch human beings droop ed and died. Death as it came to us was mysterious enough. What had been !iid to me by a woman, who would have been a -;ii ittitxlist had Mie lived to-day. wa- a mere absurdity. "I believes there is some horrible un seen thing in the room, some awful shapeless spirit, that when it i- locked in with its victim murders him. Let others believe what they will, I believe that," she 'aid. The words haunted me. but I laugh ed at them, of course. What ever it was, I would try to know. At dii-k that day I went into my bedroom. I came out a strange man. I wore a white wig. a pair of green goggles, an overcoat the tail of which reached nearlv to inv heels. I had a iiiumer. mom my n.roai. ami a nine bunch about my shoulders. I carried a thick cane and stooped a great deala I walked. In my hand I carried a car - pet-bag, and in my bosom a pairof pis- tols well loaded. As 1 passed out into the street the - - , ..... early moon was jii-t rising ; Mie lit me ' on my way to the door Ol Madame' .Matteau'-- house. It was opened for me. when 1 knock-! ed by old Hannah. Her c.ves were red aiid swollen. Tneu I told her that ! I was a stranger, and had received ! Madame Matteau'saddre-s fromageii-i tlenun in ew 1 ork. and desired to , Stay Under her roof all lllgllt.

I merelv remov ed my disguise, and sat dowu be-ide tnc table, with my pistols beside mc. That some attempt might be shortlv made to murder me I felt possible. I thought of all the old tales that I had heard of trap-doors and sliding panel-, and secret entrances to travelers' rooms. I was not a coward, but I felt strangely nervous; and singular enough lor a man 111 my perfect health my hands were growing cold, my feet were lumps of ice, while my head was burning hot. Fifteen minutes had passed, and the tire wa kindled, but the room was not warm. The blue flames struggled among the black coal-", and Hung fork ed tonirues tipped with yellow tints into the room. There was nothiii"- chcerful about the stove, though it was of that open s vie now called Frank lin. Yet 1 drew a chair toward it from habit, and sat with my feet upon the hearth. I do not know how long I sat there. Suddenly I became aware that 1 was not myself. 1 was losing inv senses. If unseen hands had of been clasped about my neck, and an unseen knee had been pressed against mv chest, my sensations could not have been dillercnt. A thought of the evil spirit, which my friend had suggested. faintly strug gled into my mind. As I staggered to my feet a noie like the roaring of the sea was 111 my ear. I he llames of the candle turned to a yellow blue. 1 bare ly retained cnough'strength to stagger to the window and fling it open. The frc-li, cold wind lushed in at it. It gave me intense pain, but it lelieved inc. Ina moment more I was able to clamber out ofit upon the shed be low. 'Ihercl remained until dav dawn. Willi my returning sences the truth came to me. That which had murder ed the three men who slept before me in the blue chamber was nothing more or less than the coal stove. It wa- provided with what is called a damper, and this being caught in a maimer which closed it and sent the poisonous g.i- into the room. It had been kindled as a wood lire would have been at the hour of retiring, but one ignorant of the danger of coal gas, and they had slept never to awaken. Had I thrown myself upon the bed, I also should have been found dead at dav light, in all human probability. As for the fact that neither iloctoror coroner had discovered the truth, I have but to say that they were not deeply scientilic men thatcoal stoves were scarcely used the place, and that it had not been mentioned that the blue room was heated thu. Of course I reioiccd the household by my discovery next morning, and equally, of course, .Madame Matteau. w ho was not only freed from suspic ion, but became "the object of univer sal sympathy. She was alwa.v-grateful to me, and she proved her grati tude by giving me what I soon naked lor, thchaud of her daughter Oabrielle in marraige. Statistics.

' Chinese Ideas About Death. The Chinese are almost indifferent to the phenomenon of dissolution, and frequently compass their own end when life becomes wearisome. A wife sometimes elects to follow her husband on the starlit road of death; and parents will destroy their oil spring in times of famine and great distress rather than allow them to suf fer, fctill more remarkable is the cus torn of selling their lives in order that uic-i iu;iy purcnasc me superior ad vantage, of obsequies, which are con sidered to insure the body in safctv tor the future resurrection. 'A wealth man condemned to death will arrange with his jailor to buy him a substitute for a certain sum of tiioncv to be sneut upon the poor wretch's interment and ...- preservation of his body. Should he have parents, so much is usually paid to them in compensation for" their son's life. Chinamen invariablv help to support their parents: filial respect and devotion is the great Chinese vir tue and religious precept, in which they rarely fail. Hegarding death as inevitable, he makes the best ot a bad bargain, and cunningly and comicallv rets paid for dving. The wholesale destruction of life in this countrv is greatly the result of iiidilfcreucc. Hence the massacre of Knropeaus, so terrible to us, seems to them a matter of little moment, and thev cannot comprehend whv we should make a fuss about it. I'hcv regard our imliir- nant protestations very much as we might treat our irate neighbor who-e dog we had shot. "Weil. well, be naci- tied; if it was such a favorite. 1 am sorry: but it is only a dog, and there ii.u i.iciiiy moie. now- muni do 011 want to be paid font? "ou Kng- lshthiiih- so much of alile. 'argues the Chinese : "have on not plenty of people at home .' Death in China is regarded as the punishment for the most trivial oflen-es, and frequently iwi none; ;u mi, except oeiug in some body's way. A Morv was told to ine as a tact that, during the viit of one of our royal princes, a theft was com mitted ol" a chain or watch belonging to the royal guest. The unfortunate attendant was caught with the proper ty upon him, and without further cere mony his head was chopped oil. The lnaudariii in attendance immediate) auiitiuuccd the tidings to the prince as a delicate attention, showing how de voted he wa- in his service. To his astonishment the prince expressed his great regret that the man's head had been taken oil". "Your Highness," cried the obsequious mandarin, bow ing to the ground, -it shall immediate ly be put on again!" so little did he understand that the regret was for the life taken, and not the severed head. In times of insurrection or famine the mowing down of human life is like corn-stalks in harvest time, appalling to European ideas.

I consider it inv duty to make a few- suggestions a to the"be-t season to visit Palestine, the most direct route, and the necessary outfit.
