No threats were needed to get the matter straight, for the real cul- prit promptly confessed his plot and identified his accomplices. They were all half-witted foreigners, whose brains had been turned by the conditions existing in the city of Cleve- land; but one, “the fellow with the hollow eyes and the red rose in his buttonhole, had complicated matters by mixing love affairs with bloodshed. Why he selected Miss Mar- lowe no one ever knew, but it was probable that he saw her and was smitten by her beauty. Before the Temple Theatrical Company left the city they found the owners of the bracelets. They had been stolen a month be- fore and all trace of them lost. Every member of the company was glad to leave the scene of so much excitement, but it was days before they quite recovered from the horror of the explosion. Everything had been explained except the changing of the package; but, although a hundred theories were put forward, not one “was conclusive—there were no proofs forth- coming to explain how it was done, so this detail of the tragedy remained a mystery. At the depot Marion Marlowe was cheered by an enthusiastic throng. She had gained their admiration by her sweetness and genius, but her heroic conduct at that thrilling mo- ment of that awful night had won their hon- est affection. THE END.
