At Bay. By Mrs. Alexander - The hero of this romance falls in love with a young American lady in Paris. The young lady mysteriously disappears, and despite the efforts of her father and her lover and the sagacity of a cloud of detectives, remains undiscovered. The father, tiring of the search, is supposed to return to America, while the lover consoles himself with philosophizing on the fickleness and inconsistency of woman's love. A few years elapse, when the hero comes accidentally upon his lost Elsie in London. He is invited to her residence, where instead of his hated rival, as he supposes, he discovers her father, who by the way, turns out not to be her father, but her saviour as an infant, when her real father was murdered and his house was wrecked by miners in California. The object of the concealment of Elsie and her supposed father is explained in turning up of he murder of her real father, who falls in love with Elsie, and to further his suit, threatens to charger to protected with his own crime. The hero on hearing explanation, marries Elsie, and securing her property, as well as herself, and removes the incentive of the villain who is at bay. Mrs. Alexander has furnished the public with a thoroughly good story, which the publishers have placed within reach of very large circle of readers.
