I He Unintentionally Furnished
% a Theme For a Story
| By HELEN HUNTINGTON
Miss Maria Astiurst, an American
girl, was shopping one day in an Ox
ford street store in London. While
selecting gloves an old gentleman of
aristocratic appearance stepped up to !
the other end of the counter and be
gan fumbling with some pairs of
glores that lay thereon. Miss Ash
urst noticed the old man watching the
saleswoman out of the corner of his
eye, and presently when her back was
turned he grabbed a bundle of gloves
and stuffed them in his coattail pock
et Then lie sauntered leisurely away.
Now. while Miss Ashurst did not
like to become an luformer, yet, be
lieving that the saleswoman would be
charged fur the missing gloves, she
took it upon herself to call her atten
tion to the (heft, pointing to the old
man's receding tigiire.
"Oil. that's only the Duke of Chlp
perton," said the saleswoman. "He's a
kleptomaniac. His valet will be along
in a few minutes and will settle for
what he-has taken."
— She had hardly s|ioken the words
before u trim, well shaven man in liv
ery stepped up to the counter and
said to the woman:
"'Ave you seen "Is grace this morn
in"? "K's »bu|(jiin'."
"Yes. the duke was here a bit ago."
"Did 'e purchase anything?"
"Half a dozen pairs of gloves."
"*Ow nuicli':"
"One pound ten."
The lackcv opened a wallet, took
out the money and paid the bill, and
half a crown besides
"What's this for?" said the girl, pre
tending not to understand
"A tip for you. uilss."
"Awl Thank you very much."
Then the valet went off after the |
duke to uialse further settlements.
Miss Ashurst was in London on her J
first visit, with letters of introduction
that would admit her to society, and
this was her first vision of any part
of It
Miss Ashurst had other views of
British high life, for she became very
popular In London society. She pos
•1 will'-, make so promise," was the
COOL HKl'LT
sesseu two faculties mat couuuceu u>
make ber socially prominent She was
well bred and had Just enough Inde
pendence about her not to conflict with
good manners. She was invited to the
homes of different persons of the so
cial world and at one of them met the
Marquis of Scarsdaie. a young man.
who became one of her admirers. Not
long after the meeting she received an
imitation which startled her. It read
as follows:
The Ducfiess of Chlpperton would be
pleased to have the company of Miss
Ashurst at Wurbridge Grange for the week
ending Jan. 2v.
The Duchess of Chipperton! Where
had Miss Ashurst beard that name?
She made inquiries as to the duchess
and learned that she was the mother
of the Marquis of Scarsdaie.
Miss Ashurst accepted the invitation
and on arriving at \Aarbridge Grange
was presented to the old gentleman
she had met at the glove counter In
Oxford street In London. She did not
mention the meeting to his grace or to
any one else.
The gathering was composed of the
marquis' especial friends, being all
young persons, and was the first of the
kind ever Invited to his paternal home.
His father's proclivities were well
known to his generation, but not to the
younger set Miss Ashurst had not
been long In the house before she made
up her mind that most if not all the
guests were ignorant that the head of
the house had a mania for stealing.
Knowing this fact herself, she could
see that a certain amount of uneasi
ness was felt by the family lest some
thing unpleasant might happen through
tiie old gentleman's proclivity. The
marquis seemed especially Hi at ease,
so much so that it was questionable if
he did not regret having departed from
the family rule not to Invite guests to
the grauge.
One morning Miss Ashurst ou going
to her room, before reaching it, saw the
old duke coming out He was hall
blind and did Dot see ber. Feeling sure
that he had been giving way to his
Idiosyncrasy, as soon as she entered
the chamber she looked about her to
see If any articles were missing. Pull
ing open a drawer of the dresser where
she had placed her Jewels the night be
fore, she suw that they were gone.
Turning to a window, she saw the
duke walking us fast as his old legs
would carry hlin away from the house.
Seizing a wrap aud a fur cap, she hur
ried downstairs aud nut of doors Just
in time to see his grace disappearing
within a forest not far away. Follow
ing him, she caught sight of him put
ting something in the trunk of a hol
low tree. As soon as he had gone Miss
Ashurst went to the tree, thrnst her
arm into the aperture and pulled out a
handful of Jewels. But what made
her gasp for breath was that they were
not all hers. Indeed, the bulk of them
evidently belonged to other guests.
Miss Ashurst perceived at once that
the situation was delicate. It was evi
dent to ber that the young marquis,
far from being satisfled to have his
guests know his father's Infirmity,
would be dreadfully shocked at this
case of wholesale thievery. What ac
tion should she take in the matter?
She looked over the articles and
thought she could name the owners of
nearly all of tbem. She decided to
take them back to the house and en
deavor to replace them in the rooms
from which they had been taken. But
In doing this she must run the risk of
being caught with the Jewels In ber
possession and placed In the position
of a thief.
One of the house party, the Lady
Augusta Trlmmlngbam. was evidently
ambitious to be the Marchioness of
Scarsdale and the future Duchess of
Chlppertou. Miss Ashurst had re
stored ail the jewels to the different
rooms to which tbey belonged, except
some rings belonging to Lady Augusta,
without being detected. She was In
Lady Augusta's room in the act of
placing the articles in her Jewel case
when who should enter but their
owner.
There was a triumphant look on the
letter's face when she saw that one
she had begun to fear as a rival was
In her power. Maria Ashurst's heart
sank within her. for she knew that
without accusing the real thief she
was disgraced. But what at the mo
ment she feared most was that Lady
Augusta would make the matter so
public that the hosts would feel oblig
ed to m«k* an investigation, which,
though It might exonerate her, would
bring out the real culprit to their mor
tification.
Miss Ashurst left the room without
excusing herself for being there, and
Lady Augusta spoke no word, but
later the former returned and said:
"If I consent to leave here at once
will you promise to keep my being In
your room over your Jewel box a se
cret?"
"I will make no promise," was the
cool reply.
Miss Ashurst straightway made her
preparations to leave the grange, for
she knew that her stay there after
what hod happened would be prac
tically impossible. She told her hosts
that news from America would neces
sitate her return to London before fin
ishing her visit, and she departed by
the next train. But before going she
knew that Lady Augusta had spread
the story of her disgrace, for she found
herself cut by most of the other guests.
Had Lad;' Augusta Trlmmlngham
been content with driving Maria Ash
urst away without going any further
It Is quite probable that the marquis
would never have known the sacrifice
the latter had made for him. He did
not get the story from Lady Augusta
direct. She preferred to acquire cred
it for not mentioning it, but she told
so many others that it could not fall
to reach bim.
For the moment he was thunder
struck. Then he began to wonder
what it meant Miss Ashurst would
have no interest In stealing a few Jew
els, for she was rich in her own right
Something must be back of it alL He
must see her at once.
Giving out that especial business
called him to London, he took an aft
ernoon train, promising to return the
same night Reaching the city, he re
paired at once to Miss Ashurst's resi
dence.
"What is the meaning of this af
fair?" he asked.
"What affair?"
"Tour being in Lady Augusta Trlm
mingham's room over her Jewel'case."
"It means that I was there."
"For what purpose? You certainly
did not intend to steal her Jewels."
"Certianly I did not"
"As one who has been your host I
have a right to an explanation."
"And I, who have been your guest
have a right to demand that If I give
you an explanation you will believe
ma"
"Certainly I will believe you!"
Then Maria told the story of what
-she had seen of the duke, from his
flrst meeting with her to her finding her
Jewels and those of most of his other
guests In the hollow tree.
The marquis did not keep his prom
ise to return that night, and the next
morning telegraphed hla mother that
matters of Importance would prevent
his being at home for the rest of the
term for which Ills guests had been
Invited. He hoped that she would be
able to entertain them without his as
sistance.
The story of Maria Ashurst's dis
grace was circulated in London so
ciety, but owing to the Marquis of
Scarsdale's marked attention to her It
did not gain much credence, and when
his engagement with the American
girl was announced, much to the as
tonishment of nil who had been guests
nt the grange with his fiancee, the
matter circulated was voted the Inven
tion of an enemy.
