Right: Hon. Tnelawney Hope will suf- fer no setback in his brilliant career, that the indiserect sovereign will re- ceive no punishment for his indlscre- tion, that the prime minister will have no European complication to deal with and that with a little tact and manage- ment upon our part nobody will be a

penny the worse for what might have been u very ugly incident."

this extraordinary man.

“You have solved it?" I cried. “lIurdly that, Watson. There are

some points wliich are as dark as ever. But we have so much that it will be our own fault if wc cannot; get the rest. We will go straight' to White- hall terrace and bring the matter to a head."

When we ari-i'\'ed at the residence oi'

thc European secretary it was t'or_ Lady Hilda Trelawney Hope that Sher- lock Holmes inquired. We were shown into thc morning room. g

“.\Ir, Holmes," _said the lady, and her

face was pink with her indignation, “this is surely most unfair and ungen- crous upon your part. I desired, as I have explained, to kccp my visit to you it sccrct lest iny husband should think that I was intruding into his at- tulrs, and yet you compromise me by

The lady sprang to her feet, with

the color al_l dashed in an instant from _har 'beautiful face. Her eyes glared. Sho tattered. I thought thatshe would taint. Then, with a grand ciftort, 'she rallied from- the shock, and a supreme astonishment and indignation chased every other expression from her fea- tures.

“You-youinsult me, Mr. Holmes." "Come, come, madam. lt is useless. -

Give up the letter." I

She dartedto the hell. , "The butler shall show you out."

'fDo not ring, Lady Hilda. It you
