what thoao seemliiKly Innocent ques

I Tho wind rattled tho blinds, and tho
rain beat heavily nKulnst tho sldu or

out Into tho storm, not knowing whero
I could Book shelter, wua not an nllur

tout, uuuiiKiiiK, us sue staroii do
yond mo at the open door. I wheeled
(out to look, startled at tho move-

water streuinlng from his clothes ou'to
tho floor. I waa on my foot Instantly,
hand gripping my revolver, but bo
lore I could whip It from tho leather
heave, tho girl had taken tho slnglo
top forward, and grasped my sleevo.
, "Do not flrol" sho exclaimed. "Ho
tts not a fighting man."
I The follow lifted ono arm, and
atopped forward full Into tho light. Ho
iaa a man of years, unarmed, a tall,
ungainly flguro, n scruggly board at
la chin, and a face llko parchment.
Ilia oyos woro two doop wolls, solemn
ad unwinking.
"Poaco to you both!" ho Bold grave

aaawerod, still clinging to my unn.
"You travol alono?"

"Lloutonant Raymond of tho Federal

ought refugo hero from thu storm."
Tho nmn'H oyes searched my face,
but without cordiality, without expres

crossed to tho flreplaco, and hold out
his hands to tho warmth of tho blazo.
The girl's oyos met mlno almost ques

"Wo woro JUBt completing our meal,"

"Huvoyou ridden far?"
"From Leulshurg."
"Lcwlsburg!" In surprise "Then
you know I was hero? You camo seek

Ho turned on his stool, his oyes
searching hor faco gravely.
"On a mission of ministry," ho re
plied solemnly, "nlthough whether It
prove of Joy, or sorrow, I nm unablo
to sny. I am but an Instrument."
Tho mnn'H reluctanco to speak free
ly was npparent, and I stepped for
wunl. "If you prefer conversing with Miss
Hnrwood alone," I Bald quietly. "I will
retire."
"Tho words I would speak nro In

"No, no!" alio broke In Impulsively,
her eyoB of appeal turned toward me.
"Do not lonvo us, lieutenant. This man
has nothing to say I urn afraid to havo

faced him now, her slender body
poised, hor eyes on his. "Tell mo what

The minister rose to hla feet, a tall,
ungainly llguro, his solemn fnen nn n.
Jiresslonlesa ua before, but a smolder
lug resentment wnB In his deep-sot
oyes. Ho possessed tho look of a
fanatic, ono who would hesitate at
nothing to gnln his end. To mo ho
was oven repulslvo In his narrow
uigotry.
"No, it was not your father," ho stild
almost coarsely, "but It is a part of my
mission to bring to you, young woman,
tho nous of your father's death."
"Death? My father dead?" sho
stepped back from him, hor hands
pressed ngalnst her oyes. Oboylng tho
llrst Instinct of protection, I stepped
to supiKiit her as she seemed about to
fall. "That cannot bo! You Ho! I
know you Ho! y0u wcro never his

to frighten mo; to compel mo to do
soniothlng wrong."
The mnn exhibited no trnco of emo
tion, no evldenco of regret, his volco
tho tAiuiti hard, metallic sound.
"I expected tills outburst," hu con
tinued unmoved, "indeed, It Is no
more than natural. Dut I harbor no
resentment, and In this hour freely for
give nil. 'Ho that taketh tho sword,
shall perish by tho sword,' nnd my

"Hut I saw him four days ngo "

Tho faco sho llnnlly lifted was white

sho Bald, ln steady, clear volco. "Unt

"My dear young lady," ho began

"And you had no other object?"
"Certainly not; what other could I

Tho man lied, and I know It; tho
suave, soft tones of his volco Irritated
mo. Tho girl stood motionless, silent,
hor brcnth coming In sobs. Then she
turned her hoad Bllghtly, and her eyes
mot mine. Tho piteous apjical ln their
doptha was all I needed. With a grim
feeling of dollght, I took a stop tor
ward, and tho muzzlo of my revolver
touched his breast.
"Now, Mister Preacherman," I said
shortly, "wo'll havo dono with this

CHAPTER VIII.
The Jaws of the Trap.
If oyes nlono possessed tho power to
kill, his would hnvo dono tho deed, but
tho faco with which I confronted him
was sufficiently grim to innko him real
izo tho danger of a movement. Ho
gavo back a stop, but my rovolvor
pressed his side.
"Don't try anything with mo, Nich

"I hnvo said already; the message

Ned Couuii'b men."
"Yes, so you did; but you never re
ceived It at Lcwlsburg, Oh, yes. I
know something myself. Tho fact Is
iou neor came horo tonight from
Lcwlsburg. Now are you ready to talk
to mo? Oh I you nro! Very well, who
sent you Cowan?"
I ran my gun muzzlo hard Into his
ribs, nnd ho nodded sullenly, his lips
drawn back In a snarl. All tho soft
palaver had vanished, nnd ho had bo-
come a cowed brute.
"I thought so; you belong yourself
to tho Cownn gang?"
"Not not in their deeds of blood
and violence," ho protested. "Tho
coIIb of my church compel mo to mln
Ister to my scattered flock"
"Novcr mind that kind of palavor,
Nichols, Now what did ho send you
for?"
I waited, my eyes on his. I could
not bco the girl, and daro not avert
my gnzo for no much as an instant.

parched, and I could percelvo tho nerv
ous movement of his throat.
"I I don't know."
"Don't know what? this Is my laBt

"I don't know whether ho la coming,
or not." ho blurted out rnluctnntlv.
"Ho wns hurt In tho light."
"And If ho cannot como himself ho
means to send others. What for?
What dons ho want of tho girl?"
My hammer clicked, and tho man
cringing back, read tho atom mean
ing of my face. A terrible suspicion
surged over me, nnd I was ready to
kill. He knew his llfo hung by a hair.
"To to tnairy hor," tho words bare
ly audible "Not old Ned his son,
Anso."
I heard tho startled exclamation of
tho girl behind me.
"Anso Cowan!" sho cried, hor voice
full of undisguised horror. "Marry me
to that low brute. Did ho over Imagine
I would consent, over oven look at
him?"
I touched her with my hand In re
straint, tho rovolver still at tho preach-
ers heart. Tho wholo foul plot lay
exposed in my mind.
"There wns no Intention of asking
your consent, Miss Hurwood," I said,
satisfied that sho should know all, and
faco tho truth. "Thero Is a reason for
this desperato act which I do not
wholly fathom, but It has to do with
tho property hero, and tho feud be
tween Cownn and your fathor. If

Ho muttered something Innudlblo.
"Answer, you black-hearted cur; you
hnvo confessed too much to hldo any
thing now. How many aro coming
with Anso Cownn?"
"Maybo a half dozen of tho boys. I
don't know; they were talking about
it when I left, and thought it was go

"Well, It Ib; you aro finding that out
already. When woro thoy to bo hero?"
1 shook him to looson hla lugglug

"They woro to rldo out nn hour after
I did."
I throw the wretch back Into the
chair before tho flro, but held him still
cowering beforo tho point of my re
volver. Tho dog had told us all h?
knew, und thero was a snarl to his
thin lips, drawn back and exposing his
yellow troth, showing that his only
thought now wns rovengo. Any mo
ment thnt gnng of rulllnns might ap
pear, and I was helpless thero alone to
contend ngalnst them. I dared not
move, dared not avert my gaze from
tho preacher; thero was hatred and
treachery lu tho dopths of his eyes.
"Is thero a lock on tho parlor door
leading Into tho hall?" I asked.
"A bolt yes."
"Pleaso close and bolt It, nnd thon
como back here."

caught the sound ns sho shot tho bolt,
and her light stop again on tho floor.
"Now, something to tlo this man

hands covorod her oyes, the fragment
of crockery falling noisily to tho floor.
"I I Btruck him," sho sobbed, un
nerved. "I I havo killed him!"
"No such good luck," I answered,
recovering myself, and grasping her
hands, so that I could look Into her
eyes. "The man Is not dead only
stunned by tho Ijlow. Ho will be con

frightened; you did right, and wo have

"Oh, I must do tho best 1 can on

possible. Go, and hurry. Get a wrap,

Sho slipped out of tho room, and up
tho stairs, her light steps making no
sound on tho soft carpet. I bent over
Nichols, and as I touched him ho
stirred, nnd opened hla eyes, staring
up into my faco
"Don't hit mo!" ho whined. "I'm no
friend of Anso Cowan."
"So you've had enough 1 Then take

I gathered lu tho picture cord tho

wrists woro big and knotted, and 1
drew tho cord tight enough to make

"Go up tho stairs," I commanded
sternly, "and keep closo to tho wall.

nnd his oyes glowed llko coals, but ho
moved on ahead of mo across tho hall,

Why That Lame Back?
Morning lameness, sharp twinges
when stooping, or a dull, all-day back
nclie; each is cause enough to suspect
kidney trouble. Get after the cause.
Help the kidneys. We Americans over
do, overeat anu neglect our ilccp and
exercise, and so we are becoming u na
tion of kidney sufferers. 72 more
deaths from kidney disease than in
1800, is the story told by the 1010 cen
sus. If annoyed with a bad back and
irregular kidney action, modify the
bad habits and use Doan's Kidney PiiU.
