“For a time, no. Moth he and Beatrice 1

Ho hurried down the street, his head
bowed in auxious thought ns ho spoko.
He did not notico the lurking shadow of
Allison ou his trail.
At a bridge across the river he came to a
halt.
Tho structure was swung, and he was
wildly impatient at tho interruption to his
progress.

Ho gazed up and down the street.
“The very opportunity," he muttered,
grimly.

The smoke of the steamer passing

Tnraing deathly whito, he fairly stag
gered back, and stink again to his chair.
His eyes haunted with an expression of
Utter apprehension and dismay, ho seemed
for Iho moment overwhelmed with some
new terror suddenly revcnled in that sin-
glo careless glance in the mirror.
His eompnuion had observed it, and no-
ticed his quick pallor, his anxious eyes,
and perturbed manner.
Leaning toward him, ho asked concern
edly:
“What hns nlnrmod you- are yon ill?"
With a powerful effort Dudley Vimco
nrouHod himself.
“Yes," ho said, in false, constrained
tones, “thoso sudden chills sometimes nvor-

Tho slightest draught seoms to affect me."
Allison arosj end shut tho door con
necting with tho ante-room.
Tho momoiit ho regained his seat. Vance
sprang to his feet.
Seizing tho arm of his amnzed compan
ion in n viso-liko grip, ho hissed into his
car:
"Allison, wo nro losl!"
Tho othor struggled slowly to his foot.
"Vauco, wlmt do you moan? Why do

"Tho foco," whispered Vnuee, huskily,

CHAPTER XXIL
A DEHI'KBATE PEEll.
For the spaco of a moment of time after
Dudley Vanco's startling declaration the
two plotters confronted each other in si
lence
Ft meant, indeed, ruin to their oven
pLi and, as they realized it, a mutual
deadly monoco to tho eavesdropper seemed
to flash from eye to eye.
Their tones were low, hurried, exeitod
as they eouvorsed again.
“You are sure it was ho?” asked Allison.
“ Vos."
"And ho is tlioro now?".
“Undoubtedly. Listen to mo and ar
quickly! Within a few moments Elliott
will do one of two things."
“And that is?"
"Ho may break in upon us, and iuili
handy denounce mo to my face."
Allison's hand tom hod a weapon in hi
bosom nt the suggestion.
“Or he may still bcliovo that l have not
discovered bis presence lioro, and loavo the
plnco."
“What thou?"
“Can you ask? Tho police, exposure,
llo hns heard all—all, do you understand?"
repeated Vanco, in frantic earnestness. "Ho
knows where Giulio Elliott is. Allison, wo
are ruined, lost, uuloss "
"Well?”
Their oyos mot.
“Unloss," whispered Vauco, “this man
Elliott is removed from our path."
“What would you have mo do?"
“Follow him.”
“N'ow?"
"Yes. See where ho pooR."
"And if to his homo? '
“You have time before morning (o son
tint ho never repeats what ho has heard
hero this night."
A desperate light enmo into Allison’s eyes.
“It is a great risk,"he breathed, intensely.
“It menus a fortuuo to you."
“Agreed. Diul'ey Vance, I nm risking
the scaffold for you. liewaro how you ever
meditate ingratitude or treachery against
me."
"You need liavo no fear of that."
"Shall X go now?"
" Y'es."
“And how shall I know if Elliott hns loft
here?”
“ Wo will depart as if we had discovered
nothing. Come."
Vanco extinguished the light, and, ad
dressing his companion in a louder tone
thin he had hitherto omployod in their in
terview, alluded to some triv.nl matter of
pubiio*iuterest ns they passed into the next
room.
No one stopped them in the aule-room.
They reached tho hall, and Vance locked
tho door after them.
A moment Inter they were in the s.root.
“Well?” asked Allison, in a subdued tono
of voice.
"lie was there.”
“In tho ante-room?"
“Y'es. ”
“Are you positive?”
“I saw him, yes.”
"What shall Ido?”
“Watch the bank.”
"And when he comes out, follow him?"
“ Y'es."
“And you?"
“Will either keep both of you in sight at
a distance), or will see you at my rooms later. ”
"Very wed.”
Allison dodged into the shndow of n dark
doorway, and Vance, proceeding down Iho
slreot, was lost in its darknosB and gloom.
Ten minutes later n man's form came
down the steps of tho bank.
It was Mr. Elliott. Vance’s suspicions
were confirmed. The banker kuew all.
He had left his home to seek an inter
view with Vance; had gone to his home,
learned he was at the bank, and had en
tered the ante-room unobserved, and over
hoard all the conversation of the two plot
ters..
Overwhelmed, dismayed, startled at the
disclosures of the hour, he could scarcely
renlize their import.
“Tho villaiusl” his pallid lips uttered as
he passed down tho steps. “My poor
Giulio, how X have misjudged you; how
on hail nppnrently driven a
dane rous fco to his interests to his death.
Anothor hoar and iho banker wonld
avo foiled Vance’s every plan for love and
,ain by informing the police of the start
ing iiitclligmco ho had so strangely hoard
that night.
Anothor hour and poor, heart-broken
Mabel would havo known all tho truth, and
joy and hope would havo driven from her
li-'nrt all its dark, haunting shadows-of
misery and despnir.
That hour, however, witnessed no suoh
cherished culmination to the fust-ooourring
episodes of the night.
Instead it found tlio wretched Mabel
iiht awakening fioin a tranoo-liko slumber
nto which sho had fallen in her boudoir
Mnbel Elliott. As srieli I can wield her to
my will and force her to wed me.
“The bank interests nro under my con
trol, and with Elliott out of the way 1 vir
tually control two immonse fortunes—his
own and that of the Wynne estate.
“As soon as Mnbol recovers her health
ihe shall know m; position, and it will
only be a question of time to win hor as
my wife.
’’Money hns purchased nbsolnto watch
fulness over the imprisoned Giu'io and
Beatrice. Within n month I shall have con
taminated ray plans. Honored, wealthy,
»nd respected, who can now defeat my
planB?"
Ho smiled proudly in the consciousness
of his own fancied security and strength;
but tho question he hn.l mentally asked
himself wns destined to be answered in a
manner that wonld aronse nil his sleeping
fears, and precipitate him auew into the
midst of anxiety and danger uuuttoroblo.
Mabel Elliott hnd recovered from hor
fover, a wreck of her former self.
All the misery and anguish of beiug re
called to n broken, desolate life was hers,
and for two weeks she passed through
every dark gradation of woo and dospnir.
Thou ontno the submissive resignation
of heavenly hope, and, a crushed and brok
en flower, she wonld sit all day iu an nrm-
ohnir, watched solicitously by tho house
keeper, and rarely speaking a word.
The crafty Vance had not intruded upon
her sorrow except onco, when it was ueces-
say that she should sign a paper in refer
ence to her father's estnto.
Then he was the subdued, considerate
gentleman, and, despite Mabel's dark sus
picions of the past, she foil that bo was at
least a warm friend of her dead parent, and
forgot hor former oTorsion toward him.
“Ho Is very kind," she murmured to tho
housekeeper, ns day by day ho sent flowers,
fruits, and books toentivon her soli tide.
Then she would relapse into her old
stupor of reverie, not even caring to ask
about the new homo where bIio found her
self.
One day sho startled Mrs. Wilson by
asking hor to request Mr. Vunoo to call ami
seo hor. She had formed somo now reso
lution, and wished to impart'it lo hor
father's business partner.
DudEv Vance's dark eyes sparkled as
ho received tho note Mrs. Wilson, at Mnbol's
direction, had written him.
"Sho is nrousing from tho lethargy of
despair and grief nt last," he murmured iu
a tone of the intouscst satisfaction. "It
will not take long to impress hor with my
value as n friend and counselor the
memory of hor father will gradually drive

THE PRETTY TYPE-WRITEH.
About tlireo years ago tho Texas A
Pacific Railroad Company undertook to
sink an artesian well near Sierra Blanco,
05 miles east of El Paso. The pipe was
down 000 feet, when a envern was struck,
the drill dropped about six feet and a
current of air rushed up the pipe. Tho
well was abandoned, and tho tubing
acted as a flue from tho cavern to the
surface of the earth. Ever since that
time the people of the vicinity have re
sorted to the spot in summer, to enjoy
tho cool and invigorating air that comes
up tho pipe. The current of nir ebbs
and flows like the ocean tides, tho
tho current beiug outward ono day
nnd downward the next. Tho upward
flow has been discovered to possess mag
netic properties, nnd tho pcoplo who
live near the well call it the “fountain of
youth."

start, “Then pain must havo returned

She opened tho door of hor room nnd
stolo noiselossly into tho corridor, bent on
seokitig lior father in tho library below.
Tho lights in tho hall burned low, and
tho nir soomd thick and heavy with odorous
mistiness, but she attributed this to some
monioutary dolusiou of hor vision and
senses.
Sho oponod tho library door nnd peered
in, nud then rctr nted with a little sigh of
disappointment.
Tuo housekeeper, crossing tho lower
lmll, started nt sight of tier white-robed
form, nnd tln n came to whore she was.
Not retired yet, Miss Mabel," she mur
mured.
"No, I was walling to si-o papa."
"He must havo returned and gone to hit
own npartmonts," suggested Iho woman.
"Then I will not disturb him to-night.
Oh, Mrs. Wilson, what was that?"
The words broke from Mabel’s lips in an
nffrightod cry of alarm.
The misty, vaporous air hnd beon no do
lusion. It’was smoko now curling omi
nously ohovo tho upper hall lamps, and, ns
Mabel spoke, a quick flare shone lurid and
flashing across the stairway.
“Fire!"
YYith this startling word tho honsokeepet
was up the stairs, tier face as whito as the
robe of tho frightened, clinging figure at
her aido.
'They paused, appalled, at the head of
tho staircase, when ono awful scream rent
Mabel’s horrified lips.
# >foro them was tho mnin corridor of
uppor floor, a black, raging mass of
dense smoke.
That corridor led to her fathor’R rooms,
hut all accoss thereto was shut off at that
moment.
l or, ns if long confined nnd smolder
ing, sinco hIio had a few moments pre
viously left her own room, a flashing,
seething sheet of flame crossed tha corri
dor, with hideous, crackling sound.
“Papal papal* Oil, Mrs. Wilson, release

A-leop—"
"Are yon nmd, Miss Mnbel? It is cer
tain death to attempt to cross that corridor."
Even ns slio spoko tho fire, leaping for
ward, enoronchteg rapidly, drove thorn
back a step or two down tho Hlntrs.
Tho housekeeper, shouting loudly for
liolp, held tho struggling g rl back, as, amid
her frnntio excitemont, sho would have
d ished (lnuntlessly through the flumes to
warn and save her beloved fathor, oven at
tho petii of her own lifo.
“Let mo go. I will save him. Oh, mer
ciful honvon, he is lost."
Lost, surely, if beyc^d that seething
mass of fire; for the llnino, suddenly ex
panding, seemed to ignite tho entire upper
portion of tho liouso.
Then she kuew no more. A dead
weight, sho sank senseless into Mrs. Wil
son's motherly arms.
She knew later what had ocaurrod; how
the affrighted servants hnd called for help;
how every moans hnd been exerted to reach
thoso asleep, or imprisoned by tho tiro in
the burning houso.
“My father,” were her first suspensefnl
words, as she awoke to consciousness and
found herself lying on a sofa iu a neigh
boring bouse.
The housekeeper’s solicitous face be
came a shide paler, nnd she did not reply.
“He is dead."
Slowly the words fell from Mnbol El
liott’s lips, ns though her henrt was turuod
to stone.
“He hns not been found -it is foarod —”
“Oh, heaven sustain mi iu my awful
trial.”
That eloquent prayer, that heartbroken
cry, nnd thon Mabel Elliott mercifully re
lapsed intoa stupor that she did not arouse
from for long, weary days of delirium and
fover.
Tho elegant Elliott mansion had burned
lo the ground. A servant's oatelessuess,
or an accident unfathomed, tho divas'er
had snemicoly overcome in ils ruin tho
sleeping banker.
A few charred bones only wore found
later, nnd these wore all that remained ap
parently of the wealthy Mr. Elliott.
Fortune had favored tho wily plotter,
Dudley Vance. An nceidcut had stopped
all iuvestigiuion into what otherwise would
havo been a mysterious disappearance.
No trace of tho drowned hanker was
found, and tho public believed he had per
ished in the Haines of his mansion.
No one was more solicitous lor Iho care
of his daughtor than Vance himsolf. No
one seemed fo more deplore tho banker's
untimely fate.
Ho became sad and subdued in mnnnor,
and appeared to endure sincere grief for
the death of his business pnrtnor.
Bnt when alone his crafty eye would be
come illuminated with a gleam of iho
keenest satisfaction.
“Tho game is all in my hands nt last," he
would murmur, triumphantly. "If Giulio

could not defeat my plans.

[From tho New York Tribune.l
"I should like to give you an idea of
how wo girls nro treated whenoyor wo
go to lrxik for hoarding places in this
city," said a young type-writer to a Tri-
'juiie reporter tho otherday. "You men
can obtain board wherever you ploaso,
nnd so long us you pay your board bills
and behave yourselves, them are no
questions asked; but with ft girl it is dif
ferent. When I came to New York, I
was fresh from New England, unknown
and without friends hero to give mo any
help or hints. Consequently I had to
hunt up a boarding-place for myself.
After considerable looking around, I
found a quiet-appearing house where tho
sign stated that n ball room wns vacant
anil that boarders were wanted.
“In answer to my ring a kindly-look
ing matron inquired my business. When
I told her that I wns looking for a board
ing-place, a visiblo change enmo ovor
hor inoe.
'* ‘Who are you ?' wns her somowliat
abrupt quejtion. Then she scanned mo
as if I were a suspected thief, for whoso
capture a rownrd lind been offered, nnd
without giving mo time to answer this
impertinent question, sho continued:
" ‘Aro you married?"
" -No, 1 am not.’l said ns pleasantly
as my mortification would allow.
“ ‘What do you expect to do for a liv
ing?' was her next query.
“ ‘I nm n type-writer.'
" 'A typo-writer !’ This was said with
a sneer that might mean volumes.
"‘Have you a brother in tho city or
any mnlo friend who will call on you ?’
" ‘No, my fumily all livo in Connecti
cut.’
“ ‘Do you keep company with any
young man ?' Really I was beginning
to lose all patience, but I managed to
say calmly: ‘I do not; but wlmt 1ms
that to do with the question of my hiring
a room and paying for it in advance ?’
" ‘Have you got any references?"
"I don’t see why I submitted to so
much quizzing. That woman could
beat a reporter asking questions. ‘No,’
I replied, ‘but if you want them I sup
pose I could get them from home in two
or three days.'
“ ‘Well, I guess we haven't any room
now, and besides, I’d rather have gen
tlemen,’ was the worthy matron's decis
ion, ns slio opened the front door only
to shut it quickly behind me. I think I
went to fully a dozen places, only to bo
treated in the same way. At last I wont
to tho Young Woman’s Christian Asso
ciation, where I should havo gone first.
I never was more thankful in my life
than when, after I had been at work for
a year nnd desired to clinngo my place,
ono of tho girls in our qffleo invited me
to share her room until I was nble to
find another place. This may sound
funny to you, but it was not a funny ex
perience for me; and my experience is
by no moans unusual. A man may get
rooms and board where he chooses,
without references and without ques
tions, but when a girl tries to get board
for herself, if slio is well dressed, her
character is doubted, nnd there is ‘no
room’ for her; people wonder where sho
gets her money. If she is poorly dress
ed, she is naturally not wanted, because
she will lower tiio reputation of the
house. Sho must, in self defence, mnr-
ry, or at least become engaged, if sho
have no male relative under whose pro
tection she is. It iioos seem ns if some
thing might be done for poor girls who
come to the city in this way. There
ought to bo somebody willing to tako
them and care for them respectably and
economically, and do this without sacri
ficing the self resnect of the girl.”
