WAS HE A MURDERER
I have always been a zealous student of physiognomy and have an irresistible habit of studying faces that I encounter in public. On one occasion at least this faculty has led me into a serious predicament.
The incident occurred on one of the railways between London and west of England.
As soon as I had conveniently disposed of my belongings in a compartment and wrapped myself in my rug, I proceeded leisurely to take a survey of my fellow travelers—a young man and a girl apparently traveling together.
The style of the young man did not please me. He looked "horsy." His attire was a great deal too "loud" for my taste, and on his little finger he wore a diamond ring—most probably a sham diamond. I decided. He was not ugly, but obtrusively big and strong looking, and I saw at once that he was in a very bad temper.
The girl, on the contrary, pleased me extremely; she was exceedingly pretty, and she was daintily dressed and exquisitely refined looking. I was struck by the fact that she seemed to share my objection to her companion, for she avoided his attempts to catch her eye, keeping her face carefully averted from him, and when he spoke to her she answered in monosyllables, without looking around. I noticed also that her pretty, childish face bore signs of recent weeping and that now and then her blue eyes filled with tears. I even fancied that she cast plaintive glances in my direction, as though unconsciously seeking for help and succor.
With my usual quick sympathy I soon felt deeply interested in the lovely, innocent looking young creature, who was apparently in the power of the morose scoundrel beside her, and I began to consider what means I should adopt to make her understand that I comprehended her sorrow and desired to help her.
No better idea suggested itself than to offer her my copy of Punch, which I did with a deferential bow and a look which I flattered myself would reveal my sentiments toward her. I have always been fold that I have a most expressive countenance.
She declined the paper, but her eyes met mine with an eloquent look, and I said quickly, laying my hand reassuringly upon her shoulder; "you have a friend close at hand. I will not leave you till I have seen you to a place of safety. I know all; I have heard all," I added in explanation, for her expression was one of mingled terror and bewilderment. "You may rely upon me implicitly."
At this instant I saw our enemy approaching and moved hastily back to my seat trying to look as though I had merely been awakened from my slumbers by the stoppage. As the train started again I subsided with sundry yawns into my former attitude.
I noticed that the girl gazed at me with a startled, perplexed expression, and I feared that the poor child's imprudence would attract the attention of her companion. I longed to make her sign to be more cautious, but thought it better not to do so, and was considerably relieved when the young man unfolded his newpaper and became apparently absorbed in its contents.
Presently, to my amazement and horror, I saw the girl suddenly lay her hand upon the man's arm, put her lips close to his ear and proceed, as I felt certain, to inform him of my discovery and offer of assistance. The man, after listening to her with a look of blank incredulity, turned and glanced at me with the most vindictive malignity in his eyes. I could not hear the words with which he apparently reassured the girl; but one painfully significant sentence reached me—"Till soon make short work of him!"
Here was a pleasing situation! I knew that the train would not stop for nearly an hour, and in the meantime I was shut in with and practically helpless in the hands of a cold blooded murderer, who, knowing me to be in possession of his secret, was scarcely likely to let me escape. The girl, in spite of her tears and protestations, was evidently completely under his influence and could not be relied on to aid me with even her feeble strength.
For a moment I contemplated a desperate leap from the carriage, but the prospect of almost certain death was too appalling. Then I thought of the communicator, but the railway authorities, with a fine perception of the fitness of things, had placed this last resource of the desperate outside and above the window of the carriage.
Suddenly an idea flashed through my
soon felt deeply interested in the lovely, innocent looking young creature, who was apparently in the power of the moose scoundrel beside her, and I began to consider what means I should adopt to make her understand that I comprehended her sorrow and desired to help her. No better idea suggested itself than to offer her my copy of Punch, which I did with a deferential bow and a look which I flattered myself would reveal my sentiments toward her. I have always been told that I have a most expressive countenance.
She declined the paper, but her eyes met mine with an eloquent look, and I felt that I had established an understanding between us.
Then a brilliant idea occurred to me. I could not talk to the girl right under the eyes of the scowling villain beside her, but if I feigned sleep he might be thrown off his guard and disclose the situation to me. I forthwith gave several portentous yawns; then leaning back in my corner I spread a handkerchief over my face so as to conceal my features, but not to prevent me from seeing my companions, and after a little while commenced to snore.
By and by the ruse seemed successful. The young man, after several unavailing attempts to gain the girl's attention, took hold of the tiny gloved hand which had been lying listlessly in her lap, and as she still continued to look the other way suddenly bent his head and kissed it.
"How dare you!" she cried, hastily drawing away her hand, while she turned and faced him. "How dare you touch me, even when you know—you know"—A flood of tears made the rest of the sentence inaudible.
The man looked at the girl with a half remorseful, half impatient expression.
"Come, Evelyn," he said after a pause, "crying won't do any good. Forgive and forget," and he attempted to put his arm around her waist.
"Forgiving won't bring back to life," she cried passionately, shaking herself free, "and as to forgetting, I never, never shall. How could you have the heart? He never harmed you!"
"No," replied the young man, with an unpleasant smile, "and he won't have the opportunity now."
"You never cared for him," sobbed the girl; "you never had a kind word for him!"
"But I tell you it was in self defense"——
"And I tell you that I don't believe it," exclaimed the girl. "He never would have harmed us, and you—you never gave him even a chance for his life." And she hid her face in her hands and sobbed convulsively.
By this time I was becoming almost apoplectic from horror. There was but one interpretation to be put upon the conversation. The man before me—how true had been my first impressions of hint—had caused the death of a fellow creature, and the pretty fair haired girl, by her very loathing and repugnance, was perhaps recklessly risking a similar fate. My blood curdled at the thought, but by a strong effort I repressed my feelings and continued to strain my ears escape. The girl, in spite of her tears and protestations, was evidently completely under his influence and could not be relied on to aid me with even her feeble strength.
For a moment I contemplated a desperate leap from the carriage, but the prospect of certain death was too appalling. Then I thought of the communicator, but the railway authorities, with a fine perception of the fitness of things, had placed this last resource of the desperate outside and above the window of the carriage.
Suddenly an idea flashed through my mind. In a few minutes we should enter another short tunnel, and it was just possible that under cover of the noise and darkness I might succeed in grasping the cord communicating with the engine driver or the guard.
Putting my arm stealthily out of the window I pulled the cord with desperate force, sinking back into my seat just as we emerged from the tunnel, and then, with a thrill of intense relief, I felt the train begin to slacken speed and gradually come to a standstill. The next moment the guard made his appearance, looking wildly round the compartment for signs of bloodshed or violence.
"Mr Murray!" he exclaimed, touching his cap deferently to my enemy. "Was it you who stopped the train, sir?"
"No," I gasped, half choking with fear and anger, "it was! That man is a murderer, who has escaped justice, and he has threatened me with violence. My life is not safe, nor is that young lady's," I added, pointing to the girl, who was gazing at me with well feigned astonishment.
"Lor' bless you, sir," cried the guard, with a broad grin, "there must be some mistake! That's Mr. Murray and his good lady. Mr. Murray is one of our directors."
"What has that to do with it?" I almost shrieked. "What if he were fifty directors? I tell you the man is a murderer and has threatened my life! Fetch a policeman!"
"Benson," cried the young man before the guard could answer, "put that old lunatic into another carriage. He has already been annoying my wife with his idiotic imprintiness. He's evidently either intoxicated or as mad as a hatter!"
"Certainly, sir," responded the guard obsequiously. "Come, sir,"—to me, in a coaxing tone which heavily maddened me—"come into the next carriage. I can't keep the train waiting any longer, you know, and you can explain it all to the inspector when we stop. Yes—quite so, sir. We knows all about it; we quite understands how it 'appened.' And before I had realized the situation I found myself half dragged, half lifted into an empty compartment, and at the mocking suggestion of my enemy the door locked upon me.
Did I get any justice or satisfaction? Not in the least. The circumstances were "investigated," with the result that my would be assailant got off scot escape. The girl, in spite of her tears and protestations, was evidently completely under his influence and could not be relied on to aid me with even her feeble strength.

have harmed us, and you—you never gave him even a chance for his life."
And she hid her face in her hands and sobbed convulsively.

The man before me—how true had been my first impressions of him!—had caused the death of a fellow creature, and the pretty fair haired girl, by her very loathing and repugnance, was perhaps recklessly risking a similar fate. My blood curdled at the thought, but by a strong effort I repressed my feelings and continued to strain my ears to the utmost, and to snore as naturally as was possible with every nerve quivering from terror.
"Evelyn," said the man, evidently trying to be conciliatory, and as he spoke, forcibly drawing the girl's hands from her face—"Evelyn, surely you and I need not quarrel about the affair? I assure you I acted for the best. He would undoubtedly have proved dangerous to us both."
"Oh," cried Evelyn, looking at him with flushed, tear stained face and flashing eyes, "then, if you fancied that I was going to prove dangerous to you, should I, too, fall a victim to poison?"
As the terrible words passed her lips the engine gave a shrill whistle and the train rushed into a tunnel, the noise rendering a reply impossible. I would have given a good deal for a glimpse of the man's face at that moment, but there were no lights in the carriages.
When, after a few seconds, which seemed to me so many hours, we emerged into the sunlight again, I perceived with a sigh of relief that the man had seemingly subsided into his former state of morose sullenness. He leaned back in his seat with his arms folded and stared absently out of the window, taking no further notice of his companion, who gradually ceased crying and began to cast furtive glances at him, as if apprehensive that she had gone too far.
Twenty minutes later we ran into a station and the train stopped. Muttering that he wanted a paper, the young man sprang out of the carriage and walked quickly toward the bookstall. My opportunity had come. Throwing aside my hankerchief I arose and leaned toward the girl, who started violently and then shrank timidly back.
"Don't be alarmed, my poor child." I

Dr. R. J. KENDALL Co., Dear Siras—I have used your KENDALL'S SPAVIN Cure for the last twelve years never being without it but a few weeks in that time and I have made several wonderful curds with it. I curled a LARP of long standale. Then I had a four year old colt badly Sweetened every thing without any benefit; so tried your business; and in a few weeks he was well and his subject tiled up all right; and the other a four year old that had a Thoroughplin and High Spavin on the same joint; and to-day no one can tell which it was on. The four state people can be seen any day at Cottage Grove, Orca.
Price $1.90 per bottle.
