they were nlone together in the room.
"Walter took a sheaf of banknotes from

dismay.
"Yes. You and the BTounts have
been the guests of the Walnwrlgbts
novr for a month. There Is snch a

"Put but where am I going?"
"Wherever you please." Andrew
turned cnrtly toward Parker as the
servant entered the room.
"Mrs. Walnwright wishes ta Bee Mr.
Andrew."
Wnltr 1nfmo!ti THtw1rr;
"I say. I'arker.; Just tell my sister I'd
like to sf-e her for n nrinutf- 5rst, will

he faced Andrew etgerly. "Iok here."
Le UiTel desperately. "I don't want to
quit just yet. I've come across for
you Now 1 want you to enne across
for me. Won't you? I waut to marry
Helen."
The Master Mind conten plated his
puppet with a supercilious stare.
'You grow ambitious, Walter. Mr.
Waiuwright's sister a chiidl"
"The kid's dippy over me." the
young man c-ottend-jd warmly. "Any-

pod Andrew fainiliirly cn the shoul

or.e would retreat from some noxious
pollution.
"If you please!" he said. His tone
vi as dangerous.
Walter uiid atjectly. "I'm sorry,

end to this intolerable tete-a-tete.
Mrs. Blount spoke to Lucene with a
half serious playfulness:
"He's such a naughty boy! Has be
been worrying you. dearie?" Suddenly
her greedy eyes fell on a bracelet that
the young wife was wearing for the
first time. "Oh. what a lovely brace
let!" she exclaimed, and now her tones
were wheedliugly soft ami sweet. She
placed a hand on the ornament caress
ingly, but the slender, skilled fingers
were busy.
Lucene. however, was In no mood to
be atient under the impositions of this
woman. She drew her arm away
quickly.
"No, you shan't have it," she de
clared spiritedly.
"Why. dearie!" Mrs. Blount cooed
placatingly, the-heavy lids drooping
low over her big. slumbrous eyes. "1
only wanted to"
Lucene was ruthlessly frank.
"No. I tell you. You've taken almost
everything I have already."
Tho husband fairly glared at his wife.
"You told me she t?uve 'em to you!"
he growled bitterly.
"And you did. didn't, you. dearie?"
the wife persisted, alarmed.
Iiut any hope of help from the girl
as an ally was dissipated on the in
stant. '""I did not!" Lucene exclaimed with
a vehemence rare In her.
The oold voice of Andrew Bounded
dominant through the room:
"Mrs. Blountr
All turned to face the speaker where
he stood just within the doorway, but
the woman he addressed turned much
more slowly than did the others.
Blount, nevertheless, made bold to
speak up manfully in behalf of his
erring spouse.
"Oh, that'll be all riht," he declared,
with an effort toward assurance.
"She'll give them back, of course."
Andrew, however, made no answer.
Tor that matter, he was no longer giv
ing attention to the woman or her hus
band. He was. instead, listening to
the dialogue between Walter and Lu
cene, for the young man had seized
this opportunity -to continue his plead
ing with the girl.
"Say, If you'll do this for me." be
was urging, "I'll never bother you
again. Come on now! Won't you?"
"No." was the steadfast answer. "1
will not. luring ihe last month you
Lave made my life miserable by forcing
me to get money for you from my hus
band to save you from disgrace, and
incidentally myself. But you may
threaten me as much as you like you
sbtfu't have Helen. No. no!"
"Why not, I'd like to know?" Walter
demanded blusteringly.
The reply was explicit:
"Because you're not ht."
The contemptuous words caused the
thief's fury to pass all bounds.
"Oh. I ain't eh?" he stormed. -Well.
I'd have you know I'm just as tit for
Helen as you are for Wainwrigbt. See?
And, if you don't help me, why, my
fine lady. 1 11 just"
Andrew's voice broke off the half
spoken threat.
"That will do. Walter," he command
ed. "Lucene is right."
The young man protested.
"But I only want to marry Helen."
"It is impossible." Andrew retorted.
Walter flared ugain.
"So. that's the game. Is It?" he sneer
ed. "well I don't go tomorrow !" the
thief cried, wrathfully.
Andrew tamed blandly toward
Blount,
"When you go out will you be so
jood as to send Parker here as your
son will wi3h to give some orders
about his packing. By the way." be
added carelessly, "you and Mrs. Blount
also will be leaving tomorrow. Have
you. by any chance an objectiou to
make?"
"Objection? Nor Blount said vie
oreusly. "Lord, we'll be tickled to
dath to go home."
Blount led her from the room. But
before "the pair bad qolte reached the
floor the Master Mind called again to
the westerner:
"Oh. Blouut! And tell Parker also
to seud Sir. Marshall here."
Luceue sank down wearily in a chair.
But MYnlter approached Andrew ug
greesively. f "No'w.'look here!" he exclaimed true- !
uleutly "l don't scare worth a cent, j
und I'm advising you that you'd better j
go light too. I knew t thing cr two."
! He grinned evilly.
Andrew regarded his rebellious tool
with undisguised disgust.
"Very well, Walter. When Sir. Mar
shall comes we are going to allow you
to confide in him at your pleasure."
"Aw, let him come!" Walter declaim
ed valiantly. "What do I care for him?
Where does he get off, anyhow?"
Then Andrew replied in a whisper,
"Mr. Marshall is a detective in the
Pinkertou service."
Walter was unable to eoLtrcd a start,
aud a cigarette fell from ficgers that
trembled. Andrew stocpcl aud picked
it up. and as he returned it to the
young man he added in his most sub
servient manner:
'Tardon me, sir. Was it my awk
wardness, or are you perhaps a little
nervous, sir?" Again, he changed his
tone aud spoke now as the Slaster
Slind, tundng toward the watching
girl. "I tniuk that it is possible Walter
will, after all. decide to depart before
morning." He faced his victim and
lashed the thief with scornful eyes.
"I said, 'Walter.' 1 should have said.
Diamond Wil "
The thief's hand caught at his tor
mentor's arm in agonized appeal.
"Xo. no, Andiewf he cried huskily.
"I'll do anything you say."
"It may be too late."
Walter's face was white with terror
now.
"Don't give me up, Andrew," he lag
ged. "Oh. for (Jod's sake don't give
me up! Lucene!" he called in despair.
Her heart was moved.
"Let him go, Andrew," she interced
ed.. "I don't want any trouble, for my
own sake."
The Master Mind made no direct an
swer to her plea. Instead, Le turned
and spoke to Pcrker, who appeared in
the doorway, following the message
he had received from Blount.
"I think it was Mr. Walter who
wanted you. Parker." Andrew said iu
an expressionless voice.
Walter assent:.d with feverish haste.
"Yes, I'arker. I'm going away in
the morning early. I want you to help
me pack."
- Lucene, left alone with Andrew,
gazed at him with miserable eyes.
"Oh, those dreadful people!" she
cried distractedly. "I can't under
stand how you" She cheeked her
outburst with an effort out of respect
for the man she esteemed so highly.
Andrew walked to her and stood
looking down commiseratiugly at the
delicate face, in which just now the
blue eyes shone a little more Uiuily
than was their wont. He regretted
profoundly that the necessities of his
vengeance must thus involve in suffer
big the girl whom he had come to
cherish very fondly more fondly than
any other living thing. Sometimes
even there stirred iu the man's heart a
suspicion that perhaps be was growing
to lavish on her a love like that he had
borne his brother. But always he
crushed back th? thought as something
wickedly disloyal to that brother who
was dead dead at the hands of an en
emy who must pay the penalty, though
it were to wring this girl's heart,
thouzh it were to destroy her every
hope of happiness.
"I'm sorry you have lern annoyed,
more sorry thj'n I can say. But don't
waste a though" on Walter. He's not
worth it."
"It is all horrible." the girl exclaim
ed. "Sometimes I give up hope. It
is all so false."
Andrew viewed - this emotion with
alarm. At whatever cost this instru-
S? T to. .-J
"I'm sorry," hs stammered.
ment of vengeance must be controlled
now. when the hour of victory was
close.
"It's true." h? confessed, with evi
dent contrition In voice and manner,
"that I've leen greatly Imposed on by
these persons. You see. my dear. 1
couldn't be too particular about the
6ort of folks 1 engaged to play a spu
rious part like theirs. Tomorrow they
6hall all le gone, and you'll be left to
j ourself in ieace."
"In pence!" Lucene repeated wistful
ly, and her face was very sorrowful
"I wonder. Oh." she went on in a
burst of feeling. "I know. Andrew,
that it was wrong not to tell Cortland
everything nt the beginning- This se
crecy lietween 1dm and me is a poison
that must eat out the'beart of our hap
plnoss."
The Master Mind hesitated for a lit

"Yes," Andrew went o-i: "Jim Cree

that you are Mrs. Waiuwright. und

A cry broke from l;,e pallid lips.
"Here? What for?"
"Bobbery." The single word ranu7
ladcn with horror to the girl's ears, the
proclamation of her own degradation.
"No, no!" she protested in despair
"It can't be true! It must not! I won't
believe it!"
Andrew maintained an nftifudo of
sympathetic regret as be stood, a little
bowed, before her. Under the piteous
pleading in her eyes he fcit his resolu
tion slipping from him. He would fain
have taken her in his arms, to comfort
tenderly as might a father. But he
Lraced himself to resist, though he suf
fered grievously at liaving to continue
her torture on this rack of his own de
vising. "I have never misled you, Lucene,"
he lied, firmly.

Mrs. Carl Seelcy is visiting her
friends and relations in Plat"smouth.
Mr. Robertson of Glen wood, former

way to Lincoln.
Miss Anna Dakin who has been in
Utah for the past year, returned on
Thursday last, accompanied by her
sister, Mrs. Liddlc, of Utah, who will
probably spend the winter in Platts

day last and were warmly greeted by
their many friends here. The general
looks hale and hearty after his
sojourn in the Black Hills.
J. W. Moore, brother of our J. B.
Moore, of Rock Bluffs, is visiting his
friends and relatives here during
fair week. Mr. M. lives in Des Moines,
Iowa, and says he must get home in
time to hear Blaine speak at Burling
ton on October 2d.
The Second street bridge is finish
ed at last, and is a very handsome
structure, and a very great aceom
moda to all the people who have busi
ness at the railroad freight depot and
at the residents on the street. Young
Mr. Wise was the contractor and has
made a good, substantial job of it.
Lawyer Smith has found his pocket
book, but not his money. The book
and money are supposed to have Leen
found by a man named Johnson, near
Rock Bluffs. His people, together with
his father-in-law, Eaton, hf.ve been

horses, calico and so on. The sheriff
and Smith went down there yesterday
and the full results will be known
soon.

twelve hours by the collision of two
trains on the U. P. R. R.
Miss Anna Gyger bid adieu to our
city on Monday last and is ere this
well on her way toward California,
where she has long ben contemplating
a visit. She will be sadly missed, as
was testified to by the goodly num
ber of friends gathered at the depot
for a last farewell, and a last heart
felt shake of the hand. The coun
tenance of each expressed grief
similar to that shown by her parents
were quite overcome at the thought
of losing her, and were only reconcil
ed, probably, with the thoug-hts that
her happiness and enjoyment would
be complete when she has at last
reached her destination. Those left
behind can only wish her a pleasant
journey, a hap?y visit, and a safe re
turn, as soon as she has tired of the
far, far west.
Treasurer Patterson has bought a
handsome team of carriage horses to
drive in that new buggy.

trial before Judge Gass for violation
of the law in selling liquor on Sun

The jury failing to agree, were dis

were summoned and the case was

verdict of guilty and the defendant
notice of an appeal.
Our friend, Gramberg, of Gram
berg & Schnasse, has left us for the
great auriferous regions of the dark
colored bluffs on the upper waters of
the American continent, where he pro
poses to prospect for the hidden treas
urers that bounteous nature has con
cealed fathoms deep in the bosom of
her dressing gown, to tempt the plia
ble fingers of human man to extract
and wax fat thereon. There are a lot
of other fellows going or gone to the
Flack Hiils from here soon now. All
got the fever.
At the last council meeting they
very wisely, we think, appointed a
city marshal. In view of the long
winter nights, the fact of numerous
petty thieves, and the prevalence of
tramps it had become absolutely
necessary that some constituted
authority be appointed to enforce the
laws and ordinances of the city; un
der the late city practice it was no
use to pass an ordinance or resolution
there being no officer of the law to
enforce its provisions if violated. Be
sides hard cases hearing of our
situation began to flock in here.
With the present financial situation in
this famous greenback town, the
council think they have no money to
pay a marshal except $10 per month
and it is expected that business men
and other citizens protected will con
tribute to defray these expenses.
Whether justly or not that is the
situation and we hope our citizens will
be liberal in their action, as the needs
of the city demand a good man and
no good man can serve for $10 per
month in city orders. P. B. Murphy
was appointed such marshal and is
now acting.
County Assessor W. R. Bryan de
parted yesterday afternoon for his
