entrance ball, Where Francis and
Andrew Wilmore were already
waiting for a taxicab. Almost as
they appeared, a new arrival was

Francis so closely that the latter

some idea of what was coming,
obeyed an Imaginary summons from

hastened without a backward glance
through the swing doors. Wlllhore
tarned up his coat collar and looked
doubtfully up at the rain.
“1 say, old chap, he protested,
you don t really mean to walk?”
Francis thrust his hand through
his friend s arm and wheeled him
round Into Davis street.
‘I don’t care what the mischief
we do, Andrew,” he confided, “but
couldn’t you see what was going to
happen? Oliver Hilditch was go

CHAPTER III
TNDECISION had never been one
x of Francis Ledsam’s faults, but
four times during the following day
he wrote out a carefully worded tele
graphic message to Mrs, Oliver Hll
ditch, 10 b, Hill street, regretting
his Inability to dine that night, and
each time he destroyed It. He car
ried the first message around Rich

the round. The fresh air, however,

the nervous apprehensions
which he had anticipated his
visit, and over an aperitif in the
club bar he tore the telegram into
small pieces and fennel himself
even able to derive a certa’n half
fearful pleasure from the though*
of meeting again the woman who.
together with her terrible story, had
never for one moment been out of
his thoughts. Andrew Wilmore,
who hnd observed his action, snoke
of It as they, settled down to lunch
“So you are going to keep your
engagement tonight, Francis?" he
observed. i
The latter nodded.
After all, why not?” he asked,
a little defiantly. “It ought to be
Interesting ’’
“Well there's nothin- "rnte^ n t th» «m?nt

Franc's?”
“Whv not?" the man who had
asked himself that question a dozen
times already, demanded.
“Because,” Wilmore replied cool
ly, “underneath that steely hard
ness of manner for which your pro
fession is responsible, you have n
vein of sentiment, of chivalrous
sentiment, I should say, which some
day or other is bound to get you
into trouble. The woman is henu
tlful "enough to turn any one’s head.
As a matter of fact. I believe that
you are more than half in love with
her already.”
Francis Ledsam sat where the
sunlight fell upon his strong, force
tel face, shone, too, upon the table
with Its simple but pleasant ap
pointments, upon the tankard of
beer by his side, upon the plate of
roast beef to which he was alreadv
doing ample justice. He laughed
with the easy confidence of a man
■wakened from some haunting
nightmare, relieved to find his feet
once more firm upon the ground.
"I have been a fool to take the
■whole matter so seriously, Andrew.**
he declared^- “I expect to wallt
back to Clarges street tonight, dis
illusioned. The man will probably
present me with a gold pencil case,
and the .woman—”
“Well, what about the woman?”
Wilmore asked, after a brief pause.
“Oh, I don't know!" Francis de
clared, a little impatiently. “The
woman is the mystery, of course.
Probably my brain was a little over- I 1
excited when I came out of court,
and what I imagined to be an epic '
was nothing more than a tissue of .
exaggerations from a disappointed
wife. However, I’m aure I’n: doing
the right thing to go there.”
The two men returned to town

Hill street, and found his host and
hostess awaiting him in the steal!
drawing-room into which he was
ushered. It seemed to him that the
woman, still colorless, again marvel
ously gowned, greeted him coldly,
His host, however, was almost too
effusive. There was no other guest,
but. the prompt announcement of
dinner dispelled what might have
been a few moments of embarrass
ment after Oliver Hilditeh’s almost
too laid cordial greetlhg. The woman

coat sleeve. The trio crossed the
little hail almost in silence,
Efanner was served in a small
white Georgian dining room with
every appurtenance of almost
sybaritic luxury. The onlv light
in the room was thrown upon the
tuble by two purple-shaded electric
lamps, and the servants who waited
seemed to pass backwards and for
wards like shadows in some rays
terious twilight—even the faces of
the three diners themselves were
out of the little pool of light until
they leaned forward. The dinner
was chosen with taste and restraint,
the whies were not only costly but
rare. A watchful butler, attended
now and then by a trim parlor
maid, superintended the service.
Only once, when she ordered a
bowl of flowers removed from the
table, did their mistress address
either of them. Conversation after
the first few amenlth speedily be
came almost a tnoi 'logue One
man talked whilst the others lis
tened, and the man who talked was
Oliver Hilditch. He possessed the
rare gift of Imparting color and
actuality in a few phrases to the
strange places of which he spoke,
of bringing the very thrill of
strange happenings into the
shadowy room. It seemed that
there was scarcely a country of the
world which he had not visited, a
country, that is to say, where men
Congregate, for he admitted from
the first that he was a city wor
shiper, that the empty places pos
sessed no charm for him.
“I am not even a sportsman,” he
confessed once, half apologetically,
in reply to a question from his
guest. “My only desire has been to
reach the next place where men
and women were. Some day we
will talk of them.”
“Tell me,” Francis asked his host,
during one of the brief pauses in
the conversation, have you ever
tried to analyze this Interest of
yours In human beings and crowded
cities, this hatred of solitude and
empty spaces?”
Oliver Hilditch smiled thought
fully, and gazed at a salted almond
which he was just balancing be
tween the tips of his fingers,

“I have some cigars which I keep
in my dressing room,” he explained,
“and which I am anxious for you
to try. There is an electric stove
there, and I can regulate the tem

He departed, closing the door be
hind him. Francis came a little
further Into the room. His hostess,
who had subsided into an easy-chair
and was holding a screen between
her face and the fire, motioned him
to seat himself opposite. He did so
without words. He felt curiously
and ridiculously tongue-tied. He

no line or curve of her figure other
than perfectly graceful. Yet even
the fire’s glow which she had
seemed to dread brought no flush
of color to her cheeks. Her ap
pearance of complete lifelessness
remained. It was as though some
sort of crust had formed about her
being, a condition which her very
physical perfection seemed to ren
der the more incomprehensible.

She looked at the door and
raised her heud a little, as though
either listening of adjudging the
time before hen. husband would re

him once more.
“Hatred,” she said, “does not

mood for speech.
“I will tell you, Mr. Ledsara,”
he said, “why I am so happy to
have you here this evening. In
the first place, I desire to tender
you once more my thanks for your
very brilliant efforts on my be
half. The very fact that I am
able to offer you hospitality at
all Is c without a doubt due * to
these."' 1 v
14 I only did what I was paid to
do,” Francis Insisted, a tittle hnrsU
ly. “You must cemember that these
things come in the day’s work with
us. ■
His host nodded.
“Naturally,” he murmured.
“There was another reason, too,
why I was anxious to meet you,
Mr. Ledsam,” he continued. “You
have gathered already that I am
something of a crank. I have a
profound detestation of all senti
mentality and affected morals. It
is- a relief to me to come in con
tact with a man who Is free from
that bourgeois incubus of modern
enterprise—a conscience.”
“Is that your estimate of me?”
Francis asked.
“Why not? You practice your
profession in the criminal courts,
do you not?”
“That is well-known,” was the
brief reply.
“What measure of conscience can
a man have,” Oliver Hilditch ar
gued blandiv. “who pleads for the
Innocent and guilty alike with the
same simulated fervor? Confess
now, Mr. Ledsam—there is no ob
ject in being hypocritical in this
matter—have you not often pleaded
for the guilty as though you be

“That has sometimes been my
duty.” Francis acknowledged.

your attitude during
those two hours of eloquence has
been a.lie. That Is what first at
tracted me to you, Mr. Ledsam.”
“I am sorry to hear it, Franols
commented coldly. “The ethics of
my profession—"
His host stopped him with a
little wave of the hand.
“Spare me that. he begged.
“While we are on the subject,
though, I have a question to ask
you. My lawyer told me, directly
after lie had retained you, that,
although it would make no real
difference to your pleading, It
would be just ns well for me to
keep np my bluff of being innocent,
even in private conversation with
yon. Why was that? -
“For the very obvious reason,
Francis told him. that we are not
all such rogues and vagabonds as
you seem to think. There is more
satisfaction to me, at any rate, in
saving an innocent man's life than
a guilty -one’s.”
Hfl dltCh laughed its though

There was a moment’s intense
lenee. The woman was still fa

“I do not wish to hear this!” he
exclaimed harshly.
“Don’t be foolish,” his host re
plied, rising to his feet and stroll
ing across the room. “You know
the whole trouble of the prosecu
tion. They couldn’t discover the
weapon, or anything like it, with
which the deed was done. Now I’ll
show you something ingenious.”
Francis followed the other’s
movements with fascinated eyes.
The woman scarcely turned her
head. Hilditch paused at the fur
ther end of the room, where there
were a couple of gun cases, some
fishing rods and a bag of golf clubs.
From the latter he extracted a very
ordinary-looking '
putter, and with
it in his hands strolled back to
them.
“Do you play golf, Ledsam?*’ he
asked. “What do you think of
that?”
Francis took the putter into his
hand. It was a very ordinary club,
which had apparently st«n a good
deal of service, so much, indeed,
that the leather wrapping at the
top was commencing to unroll. The
maker’s name was on the back of
the blade, also the name of the
professional from whom it hud
been purchased. Francis swung
the Implement mechanically with
his wrists.
“There seems to be nothing ex
traordinary about the club,” he pro
nounced. “It is very much like a
cleek I putt with myself.”
“Yefc R contains a secret which
would most certainly have hanged
me,” Oliver Hilditch declared
pleasantly. “See!”
He held the shaft firmly fn one
hand and bent the blade away
from It. In a moment or two It
yielded and he commenced to on
screw It A little exclamation es
caped from Francis’ lips. The wom
an looked on with tired eyes.
“The Join In the steel,” Hilditch
pointed out, “is so fine as to be un
distinguishable by the naked eye.
Yet when the blade comes off, like
this, you see that although the
weight is absolutely adjusted, the
inside Is hollow. The dagger it
self is encased In this cotton wool
to avoid any rattling. I put it
away in rather a hurry the last
time I used It, and as you see I
forgot to clean It.”
Francis staggered back and
gripped at the mantelpiece. His
eyes were filled with horror. Very
slowly, and with the air of one on
gnged upon some Interesting task,
Oliver Hildlfch had removed the
blood-stained sheath of cotton wool
from around the thin blade of a
marvelous-looking stiletto, on which
was also a long ataln of encrusted
blood.

NORTH SIDE SCHOOL
After an enjoyable holiday
spent at the . fair Friday, riding
on the ferris wheel and the mer
ry-go-round, watching the races
and the fire-works and taking in
the sights generally, the children
of the North Side school were
ready to begin their school work
again Monday.
The beginners are studying
family. In connection with this
work they have learned a8 sight
words, mother, father, girl, boy,
house, baby and doll. They are
very much indebted to Mr. Brad
bury of the Atlanta Milling Com
pany for a big, baby doll they en
joy playing with and using in
connection with their lesson.
The children who behave best
one day are rewarded the next
by being allowed to play with
“Primrose” as they have named
the dolly in honor of the flour.
In one corner of their room is
an attractive little bungalow
which we think must be Prim
rose’s home.
Among those deserving special
mention for good work along
these lines are C. A. Collier, Jr.,
Jake Berry, Emory Grant, Harold
Herndon, Thomas Lane, Emelie
Powell and Lula Bell Crawford.
Second Grade B have been in
terested in their drills in number

still standing at the finish without
having missed a word.
The children on the honor roll
in spelling this month are; Mary
Lou Estes, Laura Ison, Wayne
McCreely, Katie Leach, Ewell At
