CHAPTER VIII. Continued.
Hut whoil' to put tlii'in, ihtit lie
might llnd tlteui without delay'.' It
must ho no conspicuous place, where
O'llngnn would lie apt to happen upon
them; doubtless the janitor was trust
worthy, but Htlll . . . Minpluccd
opportunities breed rrlmlnalri.
It was all it ilsk to leave the treas'
tiro there, without tho protection of
uiclcolcd'Stvol walls and tliuelocUs;
but a risk that must lie taken. She
dared not retain it longer in her pos
session; and blie would contrive a way
in tho iuornhiK to eoiutuuuieute with
Maltlnnd und warn lilm.
Her gazo searched the area where
the lamplight fell soft yet strong upon
the dark shining wood nnd heavy
brass desk lit tings; and paused, ar
rested by the unusual combination of
Inverted bowl und superimposed book.
A riddle to be read with facility; in a
twinkling she had uncovered the In
criminating hnud-pt hit incriminating
if It could be traced, that is to say.
"Oh!" she cried, softly. And laughed
a littlo. "Oh, how careless!"
Fine brows puckered, she pondered
the matter, and ended by placing her
own hand over the print; this one
lilted the other exactly. ,
"How he must have wondered! .
. . He is sure to look again, espe
cially if"
No ntiMl to conclude tho tientoaco.
Quickly slto placed bag and case
squarely on top or the Impression, tho
bowl over all, and the book upon the
bowl; then, drawing from her pocket
a pair of long gray silk gloves, draped
one across the book; mid. head tilted
to one side, admired tho effect.
It seemed decidedly au artistic ef
fect, admirably calculated to attract
attention. She wns satisfied to tho
point of bolng pleased with herself; a
tact Indicated by au expres.dve Hotter
of slim, fair hands. And now, to work!
Thiio pressed, and A cloud dimmed
the radiance of her eyes; Irresolutely
she shifted lu her chair, troubled,
frowning, lips woefully (hooping. And
sighed. And a still small whisper,
broken and wretched, dlstutbed thu
quiet of tho study.
"I can not! t), I can not! To spoil
It all, now, when"
Yet she must. Site must forgut her
self nnd steel her determination with
the memory that another's happiness
hung lu the balance, depended upon
her success. Twice she had tried and
fulled. This third time she must suc
ceed. And bowing her head In token of her
loslgnatlon, sho turned back squarely
to face the desk. As she did so the
too of one smnll shoe caught against
something on tho lloor, causing a
dull jingling sound. Sho stooped, with
a low exclamation, and straightened
up, a smnll bunch of keys lu her hand;
eight or ten of them dangling from a
sliver ring; Mankind's keys.
Ho must have chopped them there,
forgetting them altogether. A find of
vuluo and ono to savo her a deal ot
trouble; skeleton keys aro ro exns
poratlngly slow, particularly when used
by luexport hands. Hut how to bring
herself to mako uso of theso? All's
fair In war -and this was a sort of
war, a war of wits at least) ; but ono
should light with one's own anus, not
pilfer tho euemny's and turn them
against him. To uso theso keys to
ransack Maltland's desk seemed an
action over moro blackly dishonorable
than this clandestine visit, this mid
night foray.
Swinging tho notched motal n'lps
(coin u slender llngor, sho contem
plated them; and laughed ruefully.
What qualms of conscience In a burg
lar, self-confessed! She was thoro for
a purpose, a recognized, nofarlous pur
pose. Granted. Then why qulbblo?
Sho would not qulbblo. She would bo
llrm, rcsoluto, determined, cold
blooded, unmindful of all kindness nnd
courtesy and Sho would uso them,
accomplish hor purpose, and have
dono, finally nud for over, with tho
whole hatqful business!

Registering Under the
There wns a bright spot of color on
either cheek and a hot light of anger
In her oes ns she bet about her task'.
It would never be less hideous, never
less Immediate.
The desk drawers yielded easily to
the eager keyu. One by one she had
them open and their contents explored
vain repetition of yesterday after
noon's ftultloss task. Hut she must
be sure, she must leave no stone un
turned. Alaltlanil Manor was closed
to her for ever, because of last night.
Hut here she was safe for a few short
hours, and free to make assurance
doubly sure.
There remained the dispatch box,
thu black japanned tin box which had
proved obdurate jestorday. She had
come prepared to break Its lock this
time, if need be; Mankind's careless
ness spared Vr the necessity.
Site lifted It out of a lower drawer,
and put it In her lap. Tho smallest
key lltted the lock at tho (list attempt.
The lid cante up and
Perhaps it. is not altogether discred
itable that one should temporarily for
get one's compunctions In tho long-deferred
moment of triumph. Tho girl
uttered a little ery of joy.
Crash! the front door downstairs
had been blammed.
Sho was on her feet lu a breath,
faint with fear. Yet not so overcomo
that she forgot her errand, her suc
cess. As she stood up she dropped
tho dispatch box back Into the drawer,
without ii sound, and, opening her
hand-bag, Htiift'od something Into It.
No tlitto to do more; a dull rumble
of masculine voices was distinctly,
frightfully aud'blo in tho stillness of
tho house; vmcJ'h of men conversing
together In iho Inner vestibule. One
laughed, und tho laugh seemed to
penetrate her bosom liko n knife. Then
lioth strode across tho tiling and began
to ascend, as was clearly told her by
footsteps sounding deadened on tho
padded carpet.
l'anlc-atilcken, sho turned to tho
student lamp and with a quick twirl
and upward jerk of tho chlmucy-calch
extinguished tho llnmo. A reck of
smoko Immediately began to foul tho
close, hot air; and sho know that It
would betray her, but was helpless to
stop It. Hesldes, sho was caught,
trapped, damned beyond redemption
unless unless It were not Maltland,
after all, but ono of tho other tenants,
unexpectedly returned and bound for
another tint.
Futllo hope. 1'pon tho landing by
tho door the footsteps ceased; ami a
key grated lu tho wards of tho lock.
Wind with terror, hor solo thought
f.n Instinctive Impulse to hido and so
avert discovery until tho last possible
Instnnt, and on tho bare chauco of
something happening to savo her, tho
girl caught up her skirts and (led like
a hunted shadow through the alcove,
through thu bed chamber, thunce down
the hall toward the dining room and
kitchen olllces.
Tho outer door was lu'Ing openod
ere she had reached tho hiding place
sho had In mind tho trunk closot
from which, sho remembered remark
ing, n window opened upon a fire
cscupo. It was barely posslblo, a
fighting chance.

She closed the door, grateful that
Its latch clipped silently Into place,
and fairly Hung herself upon tho win
dow, painfully biulsiug her soft hands
lu vain endeavor to raise the sash. It
stuck obstinately, would not yield.
Too late, she remembeied that she
had forgotten to draw the catch
fatal oversight! A sob of terror
choked In her throat. Already foot
steps were hurrying down the hall; a
lino of light brightened underneath
the door; voices, excitedly keyed,
bandied quest Ion and comment, nit tin
inlstukablo Irlfh btugtte mluglug with
a clear enunciation which she had but
too great reason to remember. The
pair had passed Into tho next room.
Sho could hear O'l lagan nnnouuelug:
"No wan here, sor."
"Then It's tho dining room, or the
trunk closet. Come nlong!"
One last, frantic attempt! Hut tho
window catch, rusted wltb long dis
use, stuck. Panting, sick with fenr,
the girl leaped away and crushed her
self Into a corner, clenching on the
lloor behind u heavy box, her daik
clonk drawn up to shield her head.
And the door opened.
A Hood of radiance from tho re
lighted student Inmp fell athwart the
lloor. Tho girl lay close and still, hold
ing her breath.
Ten seconds, perhaps, ticked on Into
eternity; seconds that wore lu them
selves eternities. Then: "No one
here, O'l lagan.''
Tho (loot' was closed, and through
Us panels moro faintly came: "Faith,
and tho murdherlng dlvvlo must 'vo
flew th' coop iiforo ye como In.sor."
Tho girl tried to rise, to mako again
for tho window; but It was as though
her limbs had turned to water; there
wns no Btrength In her; and tho black
ness swam visibly beforo her eyes, ra
diating away la whirling, streaky cir
cles. Kven such resolution and strong will
as was hers could not prevail against
that numbing, deathly exhaustion. Her
eyes closed nnd her head fell back
against tho wall.
It seemed hut an instant (though
It was In point of fact a full flvo min
utes) ero tho sound of a voice again
roused hor.
Sho looked up, dazzled by n gush
ot warm light.
Ho stood In tho doorwny, holding tho
lamp high abovo his head, his face
palo, grave, and shadowed as ho
peered down at her.
"I havo sont O'Hngan away," he
gaid, gently. "If you will pleaao to

CHAPTER IX.
Procrastination.

at his lodgings carried him but a few
blocks to tho club at which ho had, the
provlous ovonlng, entertained his law

Dannorman were members, wherein
ho was least likely to meet tho latter.

mime of the Primotillnl cugnncil upon
Hs cauls, hliuns those deadly res pep
table rooms and seeks its comforl else

Mnlllnnd found It dull nud depress
ing enoit';h, that name evening, some
thing bolero seven. The spacious and
liiipu sslve lounging rooms were but
ipais('l tenanted, other than by tho
enuiilcd corps of bervnnts; and tho
few members who had lent the opon
doom the excuse of their presenco
were of tho eldetly type that hides
llself behind a newspaper in an easy
chair and snorts when nddressed.
The young man strolled dlsconso
latel.v enough Into the billiard room,
thence (dogged by u specter of lone
liness) to the bar, and finally, In sheer
desperation, to the dining room, where
he t-elecied a table and ordered an
evening paper with bin meal.
When the former was brought lilm,
he sal up ami begttu to take a new In
terest In life. The glaring headlines
that met his eye on the fiout page
proved as Inuring as u slap in tho
face.
"'The Maltland .lewebi,'" he road,
half aloud: " 'Dating Attempt at Hurg
lary. "Mud" Maltland Catches "Hand
some Dan" Aulsly In the Act of Crack
ing Ills Safe at Maltland Manor.
Which Was Which? llotli Piluclpals
Disappear.' "
The news-stor was exploited as a
"beat;" It could have been little elso,
since nlnotenthn of Its "exclusive de
tails" had been born full-winged from
the fecund imagination of u busy re
potter to whom Maltlnnd had refused
mi interview while In his bath, some
three hours earlier. Mall land discov
ered with relief (hat hulled down to es
sentials It consisted simply of the
statement that somebody (presumably
himself) hnil caught somebody (pre
sumably Aulsly) burglarizing the II
brury safe at Maltland Mnnor Hint
morning; thai one of tho somebodies
(no one knew which) had overpowered
the other and left him lu chargo of tho
butler, who had presently permitted
his prisoner to escape and then talked
for publication.
It was not to this so much that Malt
land objected. It wns tho Illustra
tions that nlternutely snddened nnd
maddened the young man; thu said II
lusliatious comprising blurred half
tone repioductlonii of phologniphs
taken on the Maltland estate; u din
gram of I he library, ns fanciful as tho
text It Illuminated, nml two portraits,
side by side, of the heroes, himself
nml Anlsty, excellent likenesses both
of the originals and of each other.
Mr. Mail land did not enjoy his din
ner. Anxious nnd preoccupied, ho tasted
tho dishes mechanically; and when
they had all passed beforo lilm, took
his thoughts and a cigar to a gloomy
corner of the smoking room, whero ho
sat for two solid hours, debating tho
matter pro and con, and arriving at
no conclusion whatever, savo that Hlg
gins wns doomed.
At 10:15 he began to contcmplato
with positive pleasure tho prospect of
discharging tho hut lor. That, at least,
was net Inn, something that ho could
do; wherever else he thought to move
ho found himself baffled by tho blank
darkness of mystery, or by his fear
ot publicity nnd ridicule.
At 10:20 he decided to move upon
Greenfields at once, nnd telephoned
O'Hugan, advising him to ptufess Ig
norance of his employer's where
abouts. At 10:22, or In the midst of his ad
monitions to tho janitor, he changed
his mind and decided to stay in Now
York; and Instructed tho irishman
to bring him a suit case containing n
few necessaries; Ills Intention being to
stay out tho night nt the club, nnd so
avoid the matutinal slego of his lodg
ings by reporters and detectives.
At 10: 15 a club servant handed him
tho card of a ropresontatlvo of tho
livening Journal, Maltland directed
that the gentleman be shown into tho
reception room.
At 10:10 ho skulked out of tho club
by it side entrance, jumped Into a cab
and hau liluudf dtlven to tho Fast
Thlrly-lourlh street ferry', arriving
th ore just lu tlmo to miss thu last
tialu for Gieonflulds.
Honied the shelter alike of his lodg
ings, his club, nnd his country homo,
thu young man In despair caused him
self to bo conveyed to thu linrtholdl
hotel, whero', possessed of a devil of
folly, ho prosorvod his Incognito by reg

"I nnturally watch the effect of dif

with pneumonia and during his conva

"I know something of Grnpe-Nut
