6 Waiting for tlie Dawn. BY IRENE INGE COLLIER. CHAPTER XXX. Bertram cursed himself for the weakness he was obliged to acknowledge. He was madly in love with a woman whom he had wronged and had tried to cast tiern his thoughts, whose char acter he had clonded nntil he would hare been weakly ashamed to call her wife, and yet he felt it would be agony to hare another call her by that name, and he grew every day more jealous and watchinl of Gny Lawrence—handsome, warm-hearted, impulsive Guy, who was now vio- tim to a passion belore which all his other rather numerous flirtations were as fire-flies to a stead fast, burning star. It was impossible for Eloise to treat Guy with coldness. He was so thor oughly genial and devoted, so delicate in bis at tentions: his society was so delightful, his boy ish gayety so refreshing to one oppressed with gloomy recollections snd sad anticipations that she could not find it in her heart to forbid his visits or to be chilling end reticent in her man ner. No, her own bright spirits awoke under the spell of his smile and his voice. She talked and sang to him, and they read Shelley and Keats together by the evening lamp or sat in the low, twilighted piezzaand saw the moon rise over the blue Bay. Mrs. Sullivan and her daughter were nearly always present and Clar ice always accompanied them in their walks Blong the beach. Then, bb yet Guy had never spoken a word of love, tbcugh his every look and tore expressed the passion that was becom ing stronger every day in his breast. EugeDe saw it all, and he saw that in Guy’s society Eloise was almost gny—almost as he had once known her, only now her manner bad in finitely more grace and fascination. He believed that she loved this splendid young Adonis, who though poor in the world's goods had a wealth of good looks and manly grace. He kept close espionage over the two. He knew every visit that Guy paid to Myrtle Grove. Be knew every walk he took with Eloise beside the bay. 'When he heard them singing together his dark face grew pale and crimson alternately with sup- { >ressed rage. He had frequently begged her to et him drive her to Ocean "View, and she had refused, she hardly knew why. She acceded to his wishes (that also coincided with her own) and seldom went out where she could be seen. When she did, a dark veil screened her face from observation and a shawl of rich, black lace con cealed her figure. One evening however, there had been a concert in town and she had gone with Guy and Clarice, Mrs. Sullivan having a headache. As they returned, they were joined a young man, a distant relative of Clarice, who playlully took the girl's hand and walked on with her along the whiteeandy road. Eloise left with Guy talked of the singing and music at the concert and then of musical art in Italy and the open air concerts, until 6be became an imated and enthusiastic and hardly realized they had so soon arrived at home. They stood talking avthile under the fragrant-blosscmed acacia trees, and Guy's tones grew low and ten der, and he thought that Eloise as she stood with the moonlight on her fac6 was fairer than any of the statues of the Pitti Gallery which she was so eloquently describing to him. At last be said a lingering good-night and El- oise went into her room. The concert and her conversation with Guy had awakened memories of Italy, of her briet triumph and of her few, staunch friends. She 6igbed as she unfastened her hair, her sigh was echoed by a low sneering laugh, and turning she saw to her amazement Eugene Bertram sitting in her window, smok ing a cigarette and watching her. •What does this mean, Sir? What are you doing in my room ?’ -What are you doing strolling over the coun try with Guy Lawrence at this time of night,’ he 8skcd, with his mocking intonation. ‘That is my affair, Mr. Bertram.’ •It is also mine, as I will show you if this sort of work does not cease at once. You must re ceive no more visits from Guy Lawrence.’ ‘I deny jour tight to dictate in the matter.’ ‘You had better not, or I may give Mr. Law rence an inkling into your past history. It may heighten his opinion of you to know that the name you bear is lalse— end that you—’ ‘Tellhim, tell him when you will,’interrupted Eloise. ‘I am tired of sailing under false col ors. Lift the veil from my past when you will. It is you who have dropped it there, you who refuse to let me tear it away.’ ‘Hush, Eloise, jon will attract attention.’ ‘Leave my room then at once.’ T will not Lsim you. I wish you to premise me not to 6ee Guy Lawrence again.’ •I will net promise it. I enjoy Guy Law rence’s society, and, thanks to you, 1 have now few pleasures left.’ ‘Elcise,’ he resumed after a pause, adopting a different tone. ‘Would you not like to go away frem here, go to New Orleans where you may still have the benefit of the Southern air, but where you esn hear geed music, and have instruction in your art and the comfort of the re ligion you believe in ?’ ‘And where I can be away from any probabil ity of being seen and reccgnized by the Misses Earnam and other people Item A— whom I find are here, and also where I may be removed from the fascinations of Mr. Guy Lawrence,’ she said, scornfully. He Irowned and bit his lip. ‘Attach what motives you please to my sug gestion, Eloise. I may be sure you will never give me credit for having your interest at heart and yet—’ ‘Don't go on. Don’t perjure yourself yet far ther, Eugene Bertram,’ she said, standing be fore him. She looked so lovely in the moon light that he caught her hand. Twill prove my sincerity. Go to New Or leans with me ss my wile?’ She looked at him a moment, then she Baid slowly: •Will you reveal that secret? And will you take me as Elcise Ennis who has been lost to the world so long?' ‘Eloise, 1 think that name so far as you are concerned, had better never be revived. You can avoid ever being seen by any who have once known you You can spend most of your time in New Orleans, where you shall have every lux ury, my sweetest.’ ‘Eugene Bertram, this is adding insult to in jury. You wish to possess me to minister to your own passions, while you refuse me my Tights. You wish to stsmp out my identity, blot cut my name; cut me off forever ircm my brother end my friends of ether days. You think I would submit to this humiliation? Never. I have suffered much and been bowed to the dust, l ut I have still some pride and self- respect left and I will not accede to your cow ardly proposition.’ •What do you propose to do, may I ask ? Why are you Btaying here?’ ‘In the expectation of two things. First, to force you to reveal that secret; and secondly, to hear something satisfactory from you con cerning one that is dear to me, how dear only God and my own heart knows. I have asked you concerning that one and you have given me unsatisfactory answers. I can wait on you but little longer. I will speak and reveal all.’ ‘And be disbelieved and looked on as a mad woman. You have no shadow of proof.' ‘My Btory will have the impress of truth un it It will be felt to be true, and my brotn- and those I care for will believe it 1 ‘Not so readily as you think; but let that go without dispute for the present, will you go to New Orleans ?’ •No.’ ‘You will stay here and continue to receive the visits of Guy Lawrence and go out with him as you did to-night, though you know there is constant danger of your meeting with the Far- nams and others who have known you before?’ . ‘Let them see and know me. It will only hasten a revelation that must come.’ ‘Listen to me,’he cried passionately. ‘I de clare to you that if you make that revelation, you will regret it bitterly. You shall never hear from my lips the truth concerning the mat ter you are so anxious to know. I will never tell you the whereabouts of the one you are wanting to seek. Never.’ ‘Eugene do you mean this ? Could you be so cruel? You have done me bitter wrong, could you heap another injury upon those I have al ready suffered at your handB ? Would you re fuse me the one consolation that my blighted life can hope for ?' You are going into the pathetic again. You might make your fortune as an emotional ac tress. Yes madam, I positively refuse to give you the satisfaction upon that point which you say is of such vital interest to you, unless you promise that you will go out no more in public, end that you will not see Guy Lawrence again, and that you will not make yourself known as Eloise Ennis.’ She sat in silence, the changes of her expres sive face, showing what conflicting feelings agi tated her breast. At last she said: •What can I do in New Orleans?’ ‘Your church—the Cathedral on street needs a soprano voice in the choir, end will pay a handsome salary for so fine a voice as yours. I ascertained this and have written rec- commending you. You can obtain the place as soon as you go to New Orleans.' So you calculated on my acceptance.’ ‘I did.’ ‘Yes,’ she said bitterly, ‘you knew you had al- wnjs managed to overrule my will, and that you would do so in this instance. You knew your threat of withholding from me the knowledge I ask would drive me into doing as you desire. Well, you have your will; I will go to New Or leans.’ ‘The Creole will be here to-morrow on her re turn from Havana. I will accompany you on board to-morrow night. Let no one know where you are going, especially Guy Lawrence. He is a perfect fool about you; he would follow you with protestations of love that you know as well as I, can never ccme toanything. I would not permit him to become your husband.Certain disclosures would be made that would be sure to change the course of his feelings, be they ev er so warm.’ •You will not need to make any disclosures sir; I am no cheat. But before I consent to go on board the Creole to-morrow night, promise me that you will let me know what I have asked of you—that you will tell me first.’ ‘I promise that I will follow you in two weeks, and that I will tell you then; more than that, I will show yon. By sight and touch you shall be satisfied that I have fulfilled my promise.’ •Swear this to me, Eugene.’ , ‘I swear it by the stars that are shining yon der.’ •Well, I will go. After all, perhaps it may be best. The bustle and life of a city is better for the heart-ache caused by bitter memories than more solitary places, where the soul can feed undisturbed on itself.’ She spoke as if to herself, her face was pathet ic in its sorrowful look. It touched him as much by its loveliness as by its sadness. He took her hand and tried to draw her to him. ‘You need never have the beart-ache if you will trusi tome, dearest; if you will but put your fate in my hands.’ •Enough of that,'she said, drawing her hp.ods from him with cold scorn. 'Go, you have gain ed your purpose.’ The next moment he had leaped from the low window and disappeared in the shrubbery and Eloise stood alone, her hands clasped despond ently before her, her eyes gazing vacantly out as though try ing to pierce the shadows of her strange destiny. Once more, at the bidding of an arbitrary will, were her sails unfurled to drift away among strange scenes and people. Yes, once more the wail was adrift. The next day she packed her trunks and tell ing Mrs. Sullivan that she wished to see her alone a few minutes, the two walked into the little garden and sat down in Eloise’s favorite arbor of cedar and Chinese honeysuckle. There Eloise took her hand, thanked her with tears for her kindness and told her she deeply regret ted to leave the quiet spot that had given her an asylum for some peaceful weeks—the spot where she had been blest of heaven by the re covery of her voice and the winning of two kind friends—herself and ClaTice. But deeply as she regretted to go away, circumstances made itim- perative. She was going to leave to-night on the Creole, that was already in port. She told her the place of her destination, begging her to keep it secret, and premising to write. Mrs. Sullivan showed much regret at parting with the lovely weman who had not only been of great assistance to her daughter in music, but had brightened the too quiet life olthe lonely widow and made Myrtle Grove a pleasanter home than it had been since the.bereavement and seclusion of its mistress. She put a purse in Eloise's hand containing more than the amount due her for music lessons, and pressed it upon her ac ceptance. She also insisted upon her wearing a beautiful pearl ring given her by Clarice, who was inconsolable at the loss of her beloved in structress. She bade adieu to them both and to fair Myrtle Grove that evening, and joined Eugene, who was waiting for her in a covered carriage at the back door of Mrs. Sullivan's house. Her trunks were already in the carriage foot, and she had only to ascend the steps, throw herself back upon the cushions opposite Bertram and be driven to the wharf where the Creole lay. Sev eral men were standing around, but Eloise wore a demi-loose traveling suit, shawl and veil, and Eugene had on a large and' very loose linen duster: It was hardly possible they would be recognized, and Bertram only staid in the cabin a few minuteB fearing he would be seen and recognize by seme acquaintance. So he hur riedly told her that her passage was paid and her stateroom was secured and that the captain would pay her all needed attention, and would see that on landing in New Orleans she was driven to a respectable boarding house. He then offered to kiss her good-bye, but was cold ly repelled, and smiling with some bitterness he bowed over her hand, wished her ton voyage, and hurried away. Then a man came outof the shadow of a recess in the Baloon and approached her. She saw that it was Guy and her heart slightly quickened its pulsations as he came to her side. •Forgive me,’ he said, ‘I was standing on the wharf. I knew you in spite of the veil and shawl and I knew Bertram under his slouched hat. I followed you. I saw your parting just now. I am convinced there is some mysterious reason that urges you to go away so suddenly and secretly. You did not contemplate this movement last evening when I went with you to the concert?’ ‘No,’ ahe faltered, her eyes dropping under his earnest look. ‘I know I have no right to press questions upon you, and you will think me officious and meddlesome. But let my deep iifterest in your welfare plead for me, in extenuation. Your happiness is dear to me. I saw just now how. dejected and sorrowful you looked. I do not believe this journey is pleasant to you, and you are undertaking it through another’s wish—that other has some control over you, that you do not like to be subjtcted to, but are not strong enough to withstand, and it renders you un- happy. I see it, and I have long seen his con stant espionage over you. Dearest Miss Eloise will you not oonfide in one who will serve you gladly even with his life ? Will you not tell me what it is makes you unhappy ? It may be, I can help you.’ She shook her head. ‘Thanks my friend. I appreciate your kind ness, I forgive your interference and honor you for the motive that prompted you; but I cannot oonfide in you. Perhaps there is nothing to confide. My qousin has told me of an excellent situation I may obtain, and I feel impelled to do what I can for my own support.’ ‘Is ths situation you speak of in New Orleans?’ She did not answer immediately and he said hurriedly, ‘I know it is. You think to lose your self in that babel, but I will find you; and solve the mystery that surrounds you. And I wish to tell you now, if you need a friend in that strange city, need one to stand to you in any trouble, let me know, only send me a message aoross the wires and I will be with you in body. My heart goes with you now,’ he added fervidly, as the bell rang a second time and he had barely time to press her hand to his lips and burry out and off the boat, before the Creole was steaming away from the wharf, and dropping out of the Bay in the bright moonlight. Once more Eloise was a bird of passage. CHAPTER XXXI. Bertram had his will and Eloise was gone, but her going brought no relief to his gnawing un happiness—to that restless, ill-at^ase, unde cided state of mind that tormented him. In stead, he found himself more unhappy than ever, more tortured with regrets for what he had done, with, on one hand, the strong desire to take Eloise to his heart and home as his wife, and on the other a cowardly feeling that he would derogate in so doing from his pride as a Bertram. He had still not given up the idea of making Anna Farnam his wife, and he refused to believe in her engagement to Charles Ennis. The fair, proud, cold beauty with her distin guished connecctione and her honored family name would,he thought, be a better match than a poor Northern music teacher with a name cloud ed as he well knew through his own act. It was his hand that had thrown the stain on the flower that he coveted but hesitated to wear boldly on his breast. Harassed by the sting of remorse, he stood before the picture of Eloise at Ooean View—the picture Julian Marchmont had painted, and at Eloise's suggestion had had framed in a cross of ebony, touched at the ends with gold, the fair Madonna face occupying the centre of the cross. As he looked at the perfect grace and loveliness of the picture, the matchless eyes and sweeping lashes and coral mouth, a longing for the lovlier original possessed him. To banish it he ordered his coupe made ready, and ten minutes afterwards the splendid bays dashed around the curving drive and stood arching their neoks before the massive gate. ‘I will drive to the Farnams and bring Anna to eat Japan plums and strawberries at Ocean View. The splendor of this beautiful place is enough to captivate any woman. I will ride by Guy’s and invite him too, that he may take care of Carrie, while I have Anna to myself. I must stop this cursed dilly-dallying and bring things to a crisis, or I will have my weakness proclaim ing itself and humbling me at Eloise's feet. I lave her madly enough to do anything but give her my name and give up fortune and conse quence in the syes of the world for her sake. 1 can t do that; sore as the temptation is. But by heaven, I will never give her up to any other mac,. Never.’ fevri/TTiiOUghts as these filled the mind of Eu gene Bertram as he drove under the soft, cloud- flecked April sky to the residence of the Far nam’s, seeing no fairness in earth or heaven so persistently was he haunted by the dark, sad eyes of the picture he had just been beholding. He had hidden that picture away in the old oak en armoire before he had started to bring the Farnams to see the Spring glories of his home and the new pictures of which he had told them. That tell-tale face must not reach their eyes and rouse their suspicions, so he had lifted it from its hangings and carefully shut it within the ar moire, flushing as though he were doing a guil ty thing as he turned and saw his old housekeep er observing him. ‘The picture is not varnished, I am afraid the dust will spoil it,’ he said, as though his action needed an explanation. He did not find Guy at home. That young gentleman, restless and unhappy as himself, though with no remorse on his conscience, had ridden off an hour earlier, hardly caring in what direction he galloped, only feeling the need of active motion to deaden the pangs of a pas sionate love deprived of its object and torment ed with distrust. Yes, Guy Laurence, the frank and open, loved a woman whose life was a mys tery. He felt that there was a mystery surround ing Eloise and prudenoe whispered to him to tear her image from his heart, but it was in vain. His perverse Fate seemed to urge him all the more blindly in pursuit of her. Was she really the cousin of Bertram ? What was the meaning of all those little suspicions oircnmstances which he had thought of, small consequences but now recalled in proof of some strange power Eugene Bertram possesed over her? And why had she gone away so secretly, so suddenly, her inten tion and destination known only to Bertram, whom she yet seemed to dislike, wjiile she obey ed and sometimes seemed even to fear him? It was a mystery that tortured the impetuous im- passionate lover, and made his temples throb with fever, as he dashed over hill and dale, nn til suddenly be stopped, for there stood beauti ful Ooean View, rising before him in all the im posing grandeur of sweeping fields, broad grounds and stately walls. He had come upon it by a round about road and had not met Eu gene. The idea struck him to go to the house and ask t* see the new pictures. He had not seen them sinoe they were hung. In truth, he cared for only one of them and that he would have given his small patrimony to possess. He longed to look at the pictured semblance of the face so deeply gravened on his heart, and yield ing to the impulse that overpowered the dis like and jealousy of Eugene which had grown up in bis mind,he rode up to the gate, dismount ed and went in. Mr. Bertram was not at home, said the amiable old house-keeper, smiling her weloome of the handsome young visitor she knew and liked so well. But Mr. Gny must sit down and rest and eat a few strawberries any way. She willingly acceeded, (when after eating a few berries ana praising the nioe order in which ev ery thing was kept and whistling to the caged mocking birds and orioles, that were the old house-keeper’s special pets, Guy asked to see the pictures. She knew he was a privileged guest and besides Bhe was accustomed to show ing off the house and grounds to admiring visi tors and was delighted to perform the office of cioerone. Guv followed her into the oblong, spacious hall in which the pictures were hung. He went round the room hardly glancing at the painted canvas upon the wall, so eagerly was his eye searching for what was not there. ‘The picture set in a black, carved cross,where is that?’ he asked when the survey was com plete. . . •Oh ths master put it away in the armoire here, It was not varnished, and he was afraid the dust would spoil it’ ‘Not varnished indeed!’ thought Guy but he only said. £g§- •Can I have a look at it auntie?’ ‘Sure, you can. No harm in a look, varnished or not varnished. Its a mighty pretty face, and the master's uncommonly fond of looking at it.’ She opened the armoire while she spoke and took out the picture, handling it with tenderest care. Guy placed it on a tall stand that held a vase of flowers leaning the top cf the frame against the wall. Then he sat before it to feast his eyes on its familiar liniaments. Meantime, the old house keeper had hurried away for she heard noises and light foot steps in the veran dah. But Guy did not. He heard nothing, saw nothing, but the face before him, till suddenly, the door opened, he heard a rustle of ladies dresses, though the footfalls were deadened on the richly-carpeted floors, and turning quickly he confronted Eugene with two lovely and taste fully dressed ladies, all looking at him in much surprise. Blushing and confused, he poured forth his explanations, which Eugene courteously acknowledged and introduced him to theMisses Carrie and Anna Farman. Not yet had Eugene caught sight of the picture on the flower stand, but presently Carrie moved aside and the fatal portrait caught his eye. He sprang forward to snach and hide it, but too late, Carrie had seen it, had made a quick step towards it and laid her hand upon the frame. TO BE CONTINUED. Overtasking tlic Energies.
