I have subscriptions to both GenealogyBank and NewspaperArchive.  Using the title of the story, "Two Alike and a Lady", I find two references.  For some reason I am not able to download the PDF for the images.  I'll try again at home. The one linked earlier on GenealogyBank appears to be the entire story on most of a newspaper page.  It is from the Dallas Morning News, 30 Sep 1893.  It has no name associated with the story as an author. _____ The other reference I found to it was for a promotional ad for the Boston Herald, Saturday 15 Jun 1889, which promotes a story to run in the Sunday Herald, 16 Jun 1889: TWO ALIKE AND A LADY A NOVELETTE BY FRANKLIN FILE, WITH A SUGGESTION FROM JULES VERNE JUNE 16. _____ Based on this evidence, I don't think the story can be said to be written by Jules Verne.  I don't know the nature of the "suggestion" without further research if it is mentioned in the newspaper at all.   James D.
