THE IDENTITY OF THE VEILED MURDERESS REVEALED. Tha Woman Convict Whose Face Has Been Hidden Forty-five Years is Lady William E. Elliott, of England. SPECIALLY SET FOR THF EVENING EXPRtSS. (CONTINUED FROM YESTERDAY.) •—— » The story as told to her old friends was that Lady Elliott had just arrived from iScotland, and was travelling through America with her brother. The train of reasoning that the brother wished to start was: "If my sister be here she cannot be the murderess now awaiting trial in gaol." The appearance of brother and sister at the reception stopped all talk connect- ing the Veiled Murderess with the Wood family, but the reception at., the Willards was barely four hours old before brother and sister left "to go to the hotel" for the night, the next day to resume their travels. They went as far as the gaol, and Lady Elliott was placed once more in her cell. How was it done? T don't know, but that it was done is a fact which can- not be disputed. j I want its ten you a curious thing connected with my visit to Sing Sing. She was painted when I saw her, but it did not disguise her in the least. When Superintendent Allison, of Mattea- wan, received me in his office I told him I had come to make inquiries concerning the Veiled Murderess, on behalf of an old friend of hers in Chicago. The courteous official seemed gratified. I sincerely wish the identity of Henrietta Robin- son might be established," said he. She will not live long. She has considerable property, and there will be heirs to her estate, and unless her identity is known beyond a doubt there will be a vast amount of trouble." "Did she never have visitors?" "There came once to see her," replied the superintendent, "a woman, handsomely dressed, in a victoria. 'Mrs. Robinson" cried Charlotte when she saw her, and instantly laid her finger on her lip to enjoin silence." "Can I see Mrs. Robinson?" "Yes, I will take you up to the ward." Dr. Allison unlocked door after door and led the way up a long staircase. We entered a vast apartfnent, light, airy, and immaculate, in which about thirty patients were sitting, sewing, play- ing dominoes, and knitting. "That is Mrs. Robinson by the window," spid the physician; "you can go over and speak to her." I crossed the room and stood before her. Was this the Veiled Murderess? A gentle, kindly old lady of noarly eighty sat knitting placidly in her easy chair. There were traces of great beauty in her fine old face, and I remembered that her hands were very small and shapely. She looked up .t me and gave me a sunny smile. "Mrs. Robinson, I have come a good way to see you." "Indeed, and you are very welcome," she said, giving .me her hand with quite the grand air. I bent over her and spoke in a low voice Do you remember your old friend, Charlotte Norris, whom you knew-oh, so many years ago?" The old lady started and looked fixedly af me an instant. "Charlotte!" she murmured, as in I dream. "She was with me at the Emma Wil- lard School, in Troy P I guess I do remember her. Why, she was my dearest friend." "You were at school in Troy?" "Yes, I and my three sisters—Emma, Geor- ghma, and Caroline. But where is Charlotte Norris?" and Mrs. Robinson caught my hand in hers and pulled me down in a seat beside her. "She lives in Chicago. She came to see you once, did she not?" "Yes. I was so glad to see her-Charlotte, Charlotte. Oh, I did love her so at school. What good times we had! Such merry days, and how we dreaded our examinations." The old lady laughed heartily at this recollection. "I visited Charlotte once at her home in Utica, and she did everything to give me a good time. Oh, yes, Charlotte; I remember her so well." I drew my chair closer. "Your name was Charlotte, too," I said. The woman clutched my hand tighter. "My God!" she panted, looking round in alarm, "don't speak that name here. What do you know of me?" she demanded, almost fiercely. I spoke slowly. "You were Charlotte Wood, were you not?" "Oh," said she, with a gasp, "I was Charlotte Wood, but I buried that name years ago. I don't want to hear it spoken. Charlotte has told you, then. I thought she would keep my secrets to, the grave." She wa9 greatly agitated, and I soothed her us best-I eQuId. "You see, my dear," she went on, after a moment's pause, "I am known here as Henrietta Robinson." She laughed, and her laugh was like the crackling of thorns. "I don't know why I took the name Robinson. It belonged to neither of my husbands." "Oh, were you married twice ?" "Yes, my dear, and both unhappy marriages." "Was your first husband the Englishman?" She started violently again and regarded me steadily. "Yes," she breathed, rather than spoke. ( "He was a nobleman, was he not?" I half whispered, "Sir William-" I paused purposely. The old lady gripped my hand so hard she fairly hurt it, and, looking me directly in the eyes, said: "Sir William F. Elliott; yes, he was my first husband." "Is he dead?" "Oh, many years ago," she replied. "He did, not live long after we were married." "And your second husband?" "My second husband ?" Her voice rang harshly now, and she raised her thin hand passionately to heaven. "Would to God," she cried, "I had never met him. All my trouble came from him. And yet I loved him." "What was his name—Jim I paused. But she glowered at me. "I will not tell you his name. He was a well-known man, but he, too, is dead. Besides, you know too much about me. Charlotte has betrayed me." Again I calmed her and spoke of other things, but harking back again to this marriage. "It was a conditional marriage," she said. "He wished no children. We did not live together long." "Where were you married?" "In Troy-in a hotel," she said. "The pro- prietor witnessed the marriage." "Have you any children?" A tear stole down her pale cheek. "Don't ask me anything about that," she said, trembling violently. The grief of a mother, even though she be a crazy criminal, is sacred. I did not press the question. "You have your own income, I am told?" I "I have plenty of property," she said, earnestly, "and it's piling up all the time. When I am gone my family and those who have been true to me will find I have not forgotten them." "You have suffered greatly for your family." "I have suffered everything," she said mourn- fully. "My liberty and my reputation have been stolen from me by designing people, but I have kept my vows and my secret, and I shall carry them to my grave." "What message do you wish to send to Mrs. Norris ?" "Charlotte!" she mused for a space. Then, suddenly: "Charlotte is the only one outside my family who knows the secrets of my lif-3. She knows everything about me. I do not believe she will ever betray me. Tell her I am well and happy, but it will not be long now. When the time comes I will send her the signal we agreed upon. It will be published in the press She will know it at once. It will have my initials, C.W., signed to it. Then I want her to come to me as quickly as possible and bring my grandmother's lawyer, and I will settle matters for all time." I think she was wandering now a trifle. She had been violently excited and agitated. Old faces had come before her, old voices had called to her from out a stormy past. I saw by the look on her attendant's face that it was time for me to go. I took her lady- ship's hand. "Good-bye, Lady Charlotte," I whispered. "Good-bye," she murmured, looking away and beyond me, as if she saw the phantom of her lost youth. As I came out of Matteawau the flying squad- rons of black clouds were massing sullenly in every part of the heavens, save far over the Stcrm King, where gleamed the rose and gold of the dying sun. And the afterglow of the sunset was like the peaceful ending of a tem- pestuous and troubled life. (CONCLUDED.)

A LEGAL APPARITION. A curious case is reported from abroid. A m:m disappeared. He was thought to be dead, and his effects were distributed. He came back after twenty years,, and went into the court issuing the decree, and asked the judge to issue an order to give him his property. The judge said: "In the eye of this court you are dead. This is not the place for you to get mistakes rectified. Get a lawyer-he will tell you what to do. The man persisted, and said lie1 "wanted his property, and it was an outrage to deprive him of- it another day." His only reply was: "I tell you that in the eye of this court you are dead.- Sheriff, take this apparition out of court."

Quips and Cranks. Why do prosperous men always say that the ladder of success is made up of broken rungs?" "Well, they do it so that other fellows won't try to crawl up after them." After the Railway Accident.—Doctor: "What on earth are you holding his nose for?" Pat (kneeling beside the victim): "So his breath won't leave his body, of course." "They say that if Shakspeare were alive now he couldn't make a living." "What's the matter with getting big damages from those men who say he didn't write his own plays?" "He'll be a cyclist when he grows up," chuckled Mr. Sprocketts as he dandled his five- months-old child. "How do you know?" asked Mrs. Sprocketts. "Just listen to his bawl-bearing mouth!" "Ah," remarked Mr. Tuppenny Show from the wings as his new prima-donna successfully dodged a flying egg, "that is something like! I was beginning to fear she would attract no atten- tion." Guide (showing a party of ttmrists the room in a famous castle where the Duke of Guise was murdered): "Here he received the first stroke of the sword. There he fell, never to rise again. Here, this is the fire-place where Henry III. came to warm himself after the crime was perpetrated; and in yonder cup- board I keeps my brushes!" j New boarder, warmly: "Oh, I'm knowing in the tricks of your trade. Do you think I have lived in boarding-houses twenty years for nothing?" Landlady, frigidly: "I shouldn't be at all surprised." Aunt Abby (at the museum): "And ain't that critter got any arms?" Uncle Haystack: "Of course, he has. They call him the armless wonder 'cause it's a wonder where he keeps hit arms." Natural History.—"Did you know, my little boy," asked the solemn old gentleman, "that f. bee can fly faster than a pigeon?" "I didn't know it before," said the little boy; "but I know he can sit down a heap harder." A curious legal point was decided iu the reign of Elizabeth—at least, so the Story goes. A country gentleman bequeathed his estate to his eldest son, and ten pounds to the younger. He had only two sons, who were twins. The first- bcrn claimed the estate, but it seemed he had been round the world with Drake, and so had lost a day on the voyage. Hence, the lawyers — sly l'ogues—assured him that his brother's claim was the best: and the adventurer, acquiescing in the decision, departed on his travels with the tern pounds in his pocket. Only an Incident.—"Bow! wow! bflw! wow- wow—wow!" "Hang that dog!" exclaims Scrib, bier, closing the window with a bang. "If there'i anything I do detest, it's a yelping cur!" "Boo woo! boo! woo—woo—woo!" "Good gracious. says Scribbler; "t.liat must be another! Drat those dogs, anyway!" ''Boo! woo! bow! wowi boo-woo bow! wow—wow! zip!"
