The latter SAZED VACAKTLY AT THE GKOUKD. looked out with three jtiers of vacant, melancholy windows, which were tlank and dreary, save that here and there a "To Let" card had developed like a cataract upon the bleared panes. A smau garden spnnKiea over witn a scattered eruption of sickly plants sep arated each of these houses from the street, and was traversed by a narrow pathway, yellowish in color, and con sisting apparently of a mixture of clay and of grav el. The whole place was very sloppy from the Tain which had ' fallen, through the night. The garden was funded by a three-foot brick wall with asV-inge of wood rails upon the top, and against this wall was leaning a stalwart police constable, surrounded by a small knot of loafers, who craned their necks and strained their eyes in the vain hope of catching some glimpse i the proceedings within. 1 had . imagined that Sherlock Holmes would at once have hurried into the house And plunged In to a study of the mystery. Nothing appeared to be far ther from his intention. With an air of nonchalance which, under the cir cumstances, seemed to me to border upon affectation, he lounged up and down the pavement, and gazed va cantly at .the ground, the sky, the op posite houses, and the line of railings. "Having finished his scrutiny, he pro ceeded slowly down the path, or rather down the fringe of grass which flanked the" path, keeping his eyes riveted upon the ground. Twice he stopped, and once-1 saw him smile and heard him utter an exclamation of satisfaction. There were many marks of footsteps upon the wet, clayey soil, but since the police had been coming and going over it, I was unable to see how my com panion could hope to leaxn anything from it. Sill, I had such extraordi nary evidence of the quickness of his perceptive faculties that I had no doubt that he could see a great deal which was hidden from me.. At the door of " the 5 house we were met by a tall, white-faced, flaxen haired man, with a note-book in his hand, who rushed forward and wrung my companion'sNhand with effusion. "It is indeed kind of you to come," he said; "I have had everything left un touched." "Except that!" my friend answered, pointing to the pathway. "If a herd of buffaloes had passed along there could not be a- greater mess.' No doubt, however, you had drawn your own conclusions, Gregson, before you permitted this." "I have had so much to' do inside the house," the detective said, evasive ly. "My colleague, Mr. Lestrade,is here. "I had relied upon him to look after this." " . C" Holmes glanced at me, ana- raised his'eyes sardonically. - "With two such men as yourself and -Lestrade upon the ground, there will not .be much for third party to find out," he said. " Gregson rubbed his hands in: a self- satisfied way. "I think we have done all that can be done," he answered; "It's a queer case, though, and I knew your taste for such things." ; -"Ton did not come here in a cab?" asked Sherlock Holmes. "No, sir." . x ; 4Nor Lestrade?' lNo8ir.?j V ... . -en lei- ua goand look at the room.'"; With which Inconsequent re mark he strode 6n into the house, fol lowed by Gregson; whose - features -ex pressed his astonishment. . A shcrtpassage, :bare planked and dusty, led to -the kitchen and-offlces.". Two doors opened out of jt to the left and to the 'right. One of these had ob-. Lviously been elosed for. many weeks. The other belonged to the dining-room, which was the apartment In which the rysterious affair had occurred. Holmes walked; in, and :Ii followed "him 'with that subdued feeling at my heart which the presence of death inspires. ." - - - It was a large, square room, looking all the largerifor the absence of all furnitnre, A Tulgar, , flaring : paper adorntu the walls, but it. was blotched in places with : mildew, and here and there great strips had becdme detached and hung down, exposing, theyellow phister beneath.- Opposite .thloor was a showyflreplace,1 surmoulfted by a man tie-piece of imitation white mar ble.

At present mv' attention ' was centered upon the single grim, motion less figure - which lay .stretched -upon the boards with vacant, sightless eyes staring. up at the discolored ceiling. It was that of a man about forty-three or;-, iorty-f our years - of age, . middle- sized, broad-shouldered, - with crisp; curling black hir and a short stub bly beardv He was dressed in a heavy broadcloth frock coat and waistcoat, witJti lights colored trousers and 1 im maculate collar and: cuffs. A too-hat, well brushed and trim, was placed upon the floor beside Jum. , IIis hands were clinched and : his arms thrown abroad, while his lower limbs wjere in terlocked as though his death-struggle -had been a grievous ane.,'On' his rigid face there stood an expression ox. hor ror and, asitseemed.to me; of hatred," such as I have never seen upon human features. -This malignant and terrible contortion, combined with the low forehead,1 blunt nose and prognathous jaw, gave the dead man a singularly simious and ape-like appearance, which was increased by his writhing, unnat ural posture. I have seen death lit Lmany formsrbut- never has it appeared to me in & more fearsome aspect than in that dark, grimy apartment, which looked out upon one of the main arte ries of suburban London. Lestrade, lean and ferret-like as ever, was standing by the doorway, and greeted my companion and myself. "This case- will make a stir, sir," he remarked. "It beats any thing I have seen, and I am no chicken.9 "There is no clew," 6aid Gregson. "None at all," chimed in Lestrade. - Sherlock Holmes approached the body, and, kneeling down, examined it intently. "You are sure that there is no wound?" he asked, pointing to numerous gouts and splashes of blood which lay all round. ."Positive!" cried both detectives. , "Then, of course, this blood belongs to a second' individual presumably the murderer, if murder has been com mitted. It reminds me of the circum stances attendant on the death of Van Jansen, in Utrecht, in the year 1834. Do you remember the case, Gregson?" "No, sir." "Read it up you really should. There is nothing new under the sun. It has all been done before." As he spoke, his nimble fingers were flying here, there and everywhere, feeling, pressing, unbuttoning, exam ining, while his eyes wore the same far-away expression which I have al ready remarked upon. So swiftly was . the examination made that one would hardlyShave guessed the minuteness, with which it was conducted. Finally, he sniffed the dead min's lips, and then glanced at the soles of his patent leather boots. . " "He has not been moved at all?" he asked. "No more than was necessary for the purpose of our examination." j "You can take him to tha mortuary now," he said. "There is nothing more to be learned." Gregson had a stretcher and four men at hand. At-his Cill thoy entered the room, and the stranger was lifted and carried out. As they raised him, SITE BLOCK HOLMES APPROACHED THE BODY. a ring tinkled down and rolled across thefloor. Lestrade grabbed it up and starednat it with mystified eyes. "There's Jbeen a woman here," be cried. "It's a woman's wedding-ring." He held it out, as he spoke, upon the palm of hia.. hand. We all gathered round him and crazed at it. There could be no doubt that that cirekVbf plain gold had once adorned the finger of a bride. . 1 . - ? "This- complicates matters," said Gregson. "Heaven knows, they were complicated enough before!" "You're jsure it" . i doesn't simplify rthem?" observed Holmes. 'There's nothing to be learned by staring at it. What did you find In his pockets?" ."We hare it all here," eaid Gregson, pointing to a titter of objects upon one of the bottom steps of- the stairs. : : "A gold watch.

The little man's eyes sparkled as he spoke, and he was evidently in a state of suppressed exultation at having scored a point against his colleague.

He struck a match on his boot and held it op against the walL "Look at that!" he said, triumphantly- I have remarked that the paper had fallen away in those parts. In this particular corner of the room a large piece had peeled off, leaving a yellow square of coarse plastering. . Across this bare space there was scrawled in blood-red letters a single worth ----- "SACHK." "What do you think of that?" cried the detective, with the air f a show man exhibiting his show. "This was overlooked because it was in the dark est corner of the room, and no one thought of "looking there. The mur derer haswritten 'it with his or her own blood.

It. was lit at the time, and if it was lit this corner would be the brightest instead of theJ darkest portion of the wall." "And what does it mean, now that you have found it?", asked Gregson, in a deprecatory voice. "Mean? Why, it means that the writer was going to put the female name Bachel, but was disturbed be fore he or she had time to finish. You mark my words, whensHGis case cornea to be cleared up you will find that a woman named Rachel has something to do with it. It's, all very well for you to laugh, Mr. Sherlock Holmes. You may be very smart and clever, but the old hound is best, when all is said and done." '"-;., "I really beg your pardon rvseid my companion, who had ruffled. the little man's temper by- bursting Into an ex plosion of laughter.

As he spoke he whipped a tape measure and a large, round, magnify Ing glass from his pocket. .With these two instruments he trotted noiselessly about the room, sometimes v stopping occasionally kneeling, andonca lying fiat on his face, ' So engrossed.waa he with his occupation that he.. appeared to have forgot ten'our. presence, for he chattered away to himself under his breath the -whole-iime, keeping np a running fire of exclamations, groans, whistles, and little cries suggestive -of encouragement ' and . hope..

There has- been 1 murder done, and the murderer was a man. He was more than six feet hhrh. was In the prime of life, had small feet for his height, wore coarse, square toed boots and smoked a Trichinopoly cigar. He came here with his victim in a four-wheeled cab, which was drawn by a horse with three old shoes and one new one on his off fore-leg. In all probability the murderer had florid face, and the finger-nails of his right hand were remarkably long, These are only a few indications, bat they msy assist you." iestrade and Uregson glanced at each other with an incredulous smile. ' If this man was murdered, how was it done?" asked the former. "roiaon," said Sherlock Holmes, curt ly, and strode off. "One other thing, Lestrade," he added, turning round at the door; " 'Rache' is the German for 'revenge;' so don't lo6 your time look ing for Miss RacheL" With which Parthian shot he walked away, leaving the two rivals open mouthed behind him. CHAPTER IV. WHAT SOBS BAKCB BAD TO TS1X It was one o'clock when we left No. 3 Launston gardens. Sherlock Holmes led me to the nearest telegraph office, whence he dispatched a long telegram. He thea hailed a cab. and ordered the driver to lake us to the address given us by Lestrade- ' There Is nothing like first-hand evi dence," he remarked; "as a matter of fact, my mind is entirely made up upon the case, but still we msy as well learn all that is to be learned." "You amaze me. Holmes," said I. "Surely you are not as sure as you pre tend to bo of all those particulars which you gave." "There's no room -for a mistake," he ' answered. "The very first thing which I observed on arriving there was that a cab had made two rats with its wheels close to the rb- Now,"trp to last night, we have had no rain for a week, so that those wheels, which left such a deep impression, must have been there during the night. There were the marks of the horve's hoofs, too, the outline of - one of which wss far more clearly cut than that ol the other three, showing that tht was a new shoe. Since the cab was there after the rain began, and was not there at any time daring the morning I have Greg-son's word for that it follows that It must have been there during the night, and. therefore, that it brought those two individuals to the house.? , "That seems simple enough," said f ; but how about the other man's height?" " "Why, the height of a msn, in nine eases out of ten, can be told from the length of his stride. It is a simple calculation enough though there is no use my boring you,, with figures. I had this fellow's stride, both on the clay outside and on the dust within Then I had a way of checking my cal culation. When a man writes on a wall, his -instinct leads him to write about the level of his own eyes. Now, that writing was just over . six feet from the ground. It was child's play." "And his age?" I asked. "Well, if a man can stride four and a half feet without the smallest effort. he can't bo quite In the sere and yel low That was the breadth of a puddle on the garden walk which he had evidently - walked across.' .
