CHAPTER IX.
A Bridegroom Spurned.
'OU know Asrgie toid you
that Cassidy was up here
from headquarters. He didu't
rut a name to it, but I'm on."
It was Garson speaking. Mary regard
ed him inquiringly, and he continued,
putting the fact with a certain brutal
b'.untuess after the habit of his class.
"I guess you'll haTe to quit seeing
young Gilder. The bulls are wise. Ilis
fiither has made a holler.
"Don't let that worry you. Joe," she
said tranquilly. She allowed a few
seconds go by. then added as if quite
indifferent. "I was married to Dick Gil
der this morning." There came a
squeal of amazement from Aggie, a
start of incredulity from Garson.
"Yes." Mary repeated evenly. I was
married to him this morning. That
was my important engagement," she
added with a smile toward Aggie.
Agie sat erect, her baby face alive
with worldly plee.
"Oh. gee. what luck!" she exclaim
ed noisily. "Why, he's a king fish, he
is. Gee. but I'm glad you landed MmT
"Thank you." Mary said with a smile
that was the result o her sense of hu
mor rather than from any tenderness.
It was then that Garson spoke. He
put a question of vital significance.
Do you love himl"
The question caught Mary all unpre
pared, but she retained her self con
trol sufficiently to make her answer in
a voice that to the ordinary ear would
have revealed no least tremor.
"No, she said. She offered no ex
planation, no excuse; merely stated the
fact In all its finality.
"Tbeu you won't leave us?" Garson
asked. "We're going on as we were
before?" The hint of dejection in his
manner had vanished. "And you won't
live with him?"
"Live with him?" Mary exclaimed
emphatically. "Certainly not!"
Garson was still patient in his deter
mination to apprehend just what had
come to pass.
"Does he understand the arrange
ment?" was his question.
"No. not yet." Mary admitted, with
out sign of embarrassment.
Garson was intently considering an
other phase of the situation, one sug
gested perhaps out of his own deeper
sentiments.
"He must think a lot of you," he said
gravely. "Don't he?"
"I I suppose so."
Garsou spoke very softly, but with
an intensity that left no doubt as to
the honesty of his purpose.
"I'd say throw up the whole game
and go to him. if you really care."
There fell a tense silence. It was
broken by Mary.
"I married him to get even with his
father.", she said. "That's all there is
to it r.y the way. I espect Dick will
be here in' n minute or two. When he
comes just remember not to enlighten
him."
"Mr. Gilder." Fannie announced-
"Any one with him?"
"No, Miss Turner." the maid an
swered. "Have him come in." Mary ordered.
Garson made hasty excuses and
went out on the heels of the maid.
Aggie, however, consulting only her
Dwn wishes in the matter, had no
thought of flight, and. if the truth be
told, Mary was glad of the sustaining
presence of another woman. She got
up slowly and stood silent. "?ile Ag
rie regarded her curiously. A moment
later the bridegroom entered. He waa
"till clean cut and wholesome. Some
nous of wealthy fathers are not after
four years" experience of the white
lights of town. And the lines of his
face were firmer, better in every way.
It seemed. Indeed, tnat nere was scire
one of a resolute character, not to be
wasted ou the trivial and gross things.
He caught Mary in his arms with
"Hello, dear!" smothered in the kiss he
implanted on her lips.
Mary strove vainly to free herself.
"Don't, oh. don't!" she gasped.
Dick released his wife and smiled
the leatitic smile of the newly wed.
"Why not?" be demanded, with a
smile.
"Agnes!" It was the sole pretext to
which Mary could turn for a momen
tary relief. .
Tha bridegroom faced about and
Ien-eived Agues. He made a formal
ikw aud speke quietly.
"I es your pardon. JMiss Lynch,
but" a saiile of perfect happiness
shone on his face "you could hardly
expect me to see any one but Mary
under the circumstances. We were
married this morning-"
Aegie accepted the news with fitting
excitement.
"Gooduess gracious! How perfectly
lovely!"
-You bet it's loveiy!" Dick declared.
He turue-1 to Mary, his face glowing
with satisfaction.
"Mary." he said. "I have the honey
moon trip all fixed. The Mauretania
aUj at T iu tim uiorning. o we will"
JlWhere J your father?" .the bride
I asked, wlthont any trace of emotion.
-O Lord! I had fprrrotten all abont
dad. I'll tell you what we'll do. We'll
send dad a wireless from the ship, then
write him from Faris.
"What was your promise? I told
you that I wouldn't go with you nntil
you had brought your father to me and
he had wished us happiness."
"Mary." Dick said reproachfully,
"you are not going to bold me to that
promise?"
"I am going to hold you to that prom
ise. Dick."
AU right You pack up what things
you need, girlie Just a few, because
they sell clothes In Paris. And mean
time I'll run down to dad's office and
have him back here In half an hour.
You will be all ready, won't you?"
"Yes, yes. 111 be ready. Go and
bring your father.
"You bet I will!" Dick cried hearti
ly. He would have taken her in his
anus again, but she evaded the caress.
"Just oner Dick pleaded.
"No," the bride replied with deter
mination. There was silence In the drawing
room until the two women heard the
closing of the outer door of the apart
ment. Then, at last. Aggie relieved
her pentup emotions in a sigh that
was near a groan.
"Oh. gosh!" she gasped. "The poor
simp!"
Garson. learning from the maid that
Dick Gilder had left, returned Just as
Mary was glancing over the release
with which General Hastings was to
be compensated, along with the return
of his letters, for his payment of $10,
000 to Miss Agnes Lynch.
Mary spoke crisply to Agnes. "And
now you must get ready. You are to
be at Harris office with this document
at 4 o'clock, and remember that you
are to let the lawyer manage every
thing." "I don't see the use of all this mon
key business," she protested. "AH J
want is the coin."
"Listen. Agnes. The last time yon
tried to make a man give up part of
his money it resulted in your going to
prison for two years."
"Iiut that was so exciting.
"And this way is so safe." Mary re
joined sharply. "Besides, my dear,
you would not get the money. My
way will. Your way was blackmail.
Mine is not. Understand?"
"Oh. surer Aggie replied grimly, on
her way to the door.
"Mr. Griggs." Fannie announced.
There was a smile on the face of the
maid, which was explained a minute
later, when the visitor was shown into
the drawing room, for his presence
was of an elegance so extraordinary
as to attract attention anywhere and
mirth as well from ribald observers.
Meantime Garson bad explained to
Mary.
"If English Eddie. Yon met him
once. I wonder what he wants? Frob
ably got a trick for me. We often
used to work together."
"Nothing without my consent," Mary
warned.
"Oh. no. no. sure not!" Garsou
agreed.
Further discussion was cut short by
the appearance of English Eddie him
self, a tall, handsome man in the early
thirties, who paused just within the
doorway and delivered to Mary a bow
that was the perfection elegance.
Mary made no effort to restrain the
smile cause by the costume of Mr.
Griggs. Yet there was no violation
of the canons of good taste, except
la the aggregate. From spats to hat.
from walking coat to gloves, every
thing was perfect of its kind. Only
there was an overelaboration. so that
the ensemble was flamboyant- And
the roan's manners precisely harmoniz
ed with his clothes, whereby the whole
effect was emphasized and rendered
bizarre. Garson took one amazed look
and then rocked with laughter.
Griggs regarded his former associate
reproachfully for a moment and then
grinned in frank sympathy.
"From your costume." Mary sug
gested, "one might Judge that this is
purely a social calL Is it?"
"AVell. not exactly," Griggs answered
with a smile.
"So I fancied," his hostess replied.
"So, sit down, please, and tell us all
about if
English Eddie wasted no time.
"Now. look here, he said rapidly,
"I've got the greatest game in the
world. Two years ago a set of Gothic
tapestries worth $300,000 and a set of
Fragonard pauels worth nearly as
much more were plucked from a cha
teau in France and smuggled into this
country."
"Are them things really worth that
much?" Garson exclaimed.
"Sometimes more," Mary answered.
"Morgan has a set of Gothic tapestries
worth half a million dollars."
Griggs went on with his account.
"About a month ago the thiugs I was
telling you of were hung in the lib
rary of a millionaire In this city." He
hitched his chair a little closer to the
desk and leaned forward, lowering his
voice almost to a whisper as be stated
his plan.
"Let's go after them. They were
smuggled, mind you. and no matter
what happens he can't squeal. What
do you say?"
G arson shot a piercing glance at
Mary.
"It's up to her." he said. Griggs re
garded Mary eagerly as she sat with
eyes downcast.
Mary shook her head decisively.
"It's out of our line," she declared.
"I don't see any easier way to get
half a million." Griggs said aggressive
U. "If it were fifty millions it would
make no difference. It's against the
law."
"Oh. I know all that, of course."
Griggs returned impatiently. "But if
you can
"My friends and I never d anything
that's illegal. Thank you for coming
to us. Mr. Griggs, but we can't go iu.
and there's an end of the matter."
"Iiut wait a minute." English Eddie
expostulated. "You see, this chap Gli
der is
"Gilder?" Mary exclaimed question
ingly. "Yes. You know who he is the dry
goods man."
Mary, however, had regained her
self control, and her voice was tran
quil again as she replied:
"1 know; but. Just the same, it's ille
gal, and I won't touch it That's all
there is to if
"But half a million!" Griggs exclaim
ed disconsolately. "There's a stake

worth playing for. Think of ItV He
turned pleadingly" to Garsou. "Half a
million. Joe!"
The telephone rang, and Mary ex
cused herself. The instant she was
out of the room Griggs turned to Gar
son anxiously.
"It's a cinch. Joe," he pleaded. "I've
got a plan of the house." He drew a
paper from his breast pocket and hand
ed it to the forger, who studied it with
intent, avaricious eyes.
"It look easy." Garson agreed.
"It is easy. What do you say?"
"I promised Mary never to"
"But a chance like this! Anyhow
come around to the back room at ISIIn-
key's tonight and we'll have a talk.
Will you?"
"What tUte'i"
"Make It early, say 0."
"I'll come." Garson replied half
guiltily. And in the same moment
Mary re-entered.
Griggs rose and spoke with an air of
regret.
