Tompklna has now voluntarily eur- rendered himeelf to the Texas authorl. tie*, *o that the life of the woman who luvea him may not be darkened by the perpetual possibility of hia be ing torn from her artue and thrust Into prIron an un escaped felon. When Tompklna fell !n lhve with Mlsa Catherine Cartwright. the beau tiful heir*** to a mllllon-dnllur ea- t*te In Peroo county, Tcxaa, hi* con science warned him that tho domestic fcnpplne»fi of other man waa not for him: that ho could not subject a woman to the terror of the specter of rearreet which constantly haunted him. and which year* of upright liv ing had not been abut to oxorclao. In <1<-spslr, he decided to bid her farewell forever. An an excus* for hia eudden departure, he confessed t#» her that Iq hlft youth, while erased by drink, he had forged a check, eervrd nearly aeven year* In prlaon, and made hia exrape when all but a year and three month* of hia term had etapaed. Increased Har Eateam. To hia surprise, tho young woman declared that the revelation only In creased her-esteem for him. nr she recognized the resolution nnd strength needful to redeem, aa he had done, a career begun ao ruinously. When Tompklna. exalted hut of the reti cence ha had tmpoaod upon himself, stammered out an avowal of IiIn af fection. Mias Cartwright accepted him n* her flanoe, and natd she would de vote her life to making him forget hi happlneag the error of hi* youth. Hut aa the day for the wedding ap proached, her Jovey discerned that a foreboding of hia renrrest, despite her efforts at self-command, wua ( •raying on her mind. It wn* no *elf- *h fear, but alarm for her lover, over •whose head ahe beheld the sword of Damocles. impending, ready to fall at the first chance encounter with any one of the many who knew hia pa*t. During the ynara following hia escape Tompklna had slowly con vinced hlmaelf that ha had n«» motive tied whan a well dressed man of high, ly respectable aspect.

He Is now assigned to clerical work, and his situation la made aa comfortable as possible. But he needs little cheering, as he la sup ported by the consciousness that his unparalleled sacrifice la for the sake of the woman who loves him. When a young man In Nebraska, Tompklna wa* a student of mining nnd civil engineering. A nature prone to adventure nnd travel caused a clash with hi* parent*. He ran away to Texas and led a nomadto life, ac quiring t passion for drink which waa his undoing. He sank lowar and lower, until he committed a forgery. convicted In liaatrop county In April. 1177. and sentenced to spend ejghf year* at hard labor. Prlaon life had the rare effect upon him of awakening him to remorse for hia previous conduct, and to a de termination to redeem hlmaslf If he ever had the chance. Confinement sternly curad him of hia craving for Intoxicants, and with the purification ot hia physical man came a cleansing of his moral faculties. Escaped From Prison.
