GiU-s Dudley arrived in San Francisco to join his friend anil distant relative Honry Wilton, whom lie was to assist in an important and mysterious task, and who accompanied Dudley on the IVrry boat trip into the city. The re- markable resemblance ot the two men is notd and commented on ly passen gers tn the ferry. They see a man with s-nafce -yes. which sends a thrill through Dudley. Wilton postpones an explanation f the xt range errand Dudley is to per form, but occurrences cause him to know it is one of no ordinary meaning Dudley is summoned to the morcue and I her" finds the dead body of his friend. Henry Wilton. And thus Wilton dies without ever explaining to Dudley the puzzling work he was to perform in San 1 "rancis o. In order to dis-over the se cret mission his frind had entrusted to him. Dudley continues his di.sgul.se and p units liiins-elf to be known as Henry Wilton. He learns that there is a boy vliom he is charged with secreting and prot'-cting. Dudley, mistaken for "Wil ton, is employed by Knapp to assist in a .stock brokerage deal. Giles Dudley finds himself closeted in a room with Morther IJorton who makes a confidant of. him. He can learn nothing about the mysterious boy furtlu-r than that it is Tim Terrill and Darby Me.-kr who are after hlrn.

Dudley discovers tfcat he loves I.ti Ha. Knapp. Mother Rorton tells Giles Dudley that "they've discovered where 'the boy' Is. ' CHAPTER XXI. Continued. "Send six men to 8 o'clock boat. Come with one in hack to courtyard of the Palace Hotel at 7:40." Mother Norton's face changed not a whit at the reading, but at the end the nodded. "She knows." she said. "What does it mean?" I asked. "What is to happen?" "Don't go, dearie you won't go, will you?" "Yes." I said. "I must go." "Oh," she wailed; "you may be killed. You may never come back." "Nonsense." said I. "In broad day light, at the Palace Hotel? I'm much more likely to be killed before I get home to-night." Her earnestness impressed me. but my resolution was not shaken. Mother Borton rested her head on the table in despair at my obstinacy. "Well, if you will, you will." she said at last; "and an old woman's warnings are nothing to you. Hut if you will put your head in the traps I'll do my best to make it safe after you git it there. You jist sit still, honey." And she took the candle and went to a corner, where she seated herself at a stand. Mother Borton appeared to have some difficulty in arranging her words to her liking. She seemed to be writ ing, but the pen did not flow smoothly. At last she was done, and sealing her work in an envelope she brought the flickering light once more to the table. "Take that." she said, thrusting the envelope into my hand. "If you find a one-eyed man when you git into trouble give him that letter I've writ ye, anil it may do ye some good. It's the best I can do fer ye. You'd better go now and git some sleep. You may need iL" I thanked Mother Borton and pressed her hand, and she held the candle as I tiptoed down the stairs, joining my waiting guards and went out into tho night. "Where are Barkhouse and Phil lips?" I asked, as we turned our faces toward tho west Porter gave a low whistle, and as this failed to bring an answer, fol lowed it with one louder and more pro longed. We listened, but no response came. "We'd better get out of here." said Wilson. "There's no telling what may happen when they hear that whistle." "Hist! What's that?" said Porter, drawing me back into a doorway. There were running steps on the block above us, and I thought a shad ow darted from one side of the street to the other. "There seem to be friends waiting for us." said I. "Just get a good grip of your clubs, boys, and keep your levolvers handy in case they think they have a call to stop us. ' 'Hold on," said Porter. "There's a gang of 'cm there. I see a dozen of "em, and if -we're the ones they're after we had better cut for it." "I believe you are right," said I. peering Into the darkness. I could see a confused mass, but whether of men or boxes I could only guess. "We'll go up there, and you can cut around the other way," said Porter. fc "There's no need for you to risk it." "There's no need for any one to risk it. We'll cut together." "This way then." said Wilson. "I know this part of town better than you do. Run on your toes." And he darted past Borton's and plunged into an alley that led toward the north. Porter end I followed as quietly as possible through the dark and noisome cut-off to Pacific street. Wilson turned I toward the bay, and crossing the street at the next corner followed the main thoroughfare to Broadway. "I guess we're all right now," he gasped, as we turned again to the west, "but we'd best keep to the mid dle of tho street." And a little later we were in sight of the house of mystery which fronted, forbidding and gloomy as ever, on Montgomery st.cet, and I was soon in my room ani in bed for what sleep I could snatch. At the earliest light of the morning I was once cinr astir, but half-refreshed by my rt and broken rest, nd made mv ' cs tions for the day. I ordered Porter, Fitzhugh, Brown, Wilson, Lockhart and Abrams fo wait for me at the Oakland ferry- Trent, who was still weak from his wound, I put in charge of the home guard, with Owens, Phillips and Larson as his companions, and gave instructions to look for Barkhouse, in case he did not return. Wainwright I took with me, and hailing a hack drove to the Palace Hotel. There was a rattle of wagons and a bustle of departing guests as we drove into the courtyard of the famous hos telry. I stepped out of the hack and looked about me anxiously. Was I to meet the unknown? or was I to take orders from some emissary of my hidden em ployer? No answering eye met mine as I searched the place with eager glance. Neither woman nor- man of all the hurrying crowd had a thought of me. I glanced at the clock that ticked the seconds in the office of the hotel Tfap! TWO fYOZETrTOQD jaZFVJS&JZFrEAlXKGA cmzD. I saw that I had been early, and that it was even now but 20 minutes to the hour. The minute hand had not swept past the figure VIII when the door opened, there was a hurried step and two women stood before me leading a child between them. Both women were closely veiled, and the child was muf fled and swathed till its features could not be seen. One of the women was young, the other older perhaps middle-aged. Both were tall and well-made. I looked eagerly ujon them, for one of them must be the Unknown, the hidden em ployer whose task had carried Henry Wilton to his death, who held my life in her hands and who fought the des perate battle with the power and hatred of Doddridge Knapp. It was to the younger that I turned as the more likely to have the spirit of contest, but it was the older who spoke. "Here is jour charge. Mr. Wilton, "she said in a low, agitated voice. As she spoke I felt the faint suggestion of the peculiar perfume that had greeted me from the brief letters of the Unknown. "I am ready for orders," I said with a bow. "Your orders are in this envelope," said the Unknown, hurriedly thrust ing a paper into my hand. "Drive for the boat and read them on the way. You have no time to lose." The younger woman placed the child in the hack. "Climb in, Wainwright," said I, eye ing the youngster unfavorably. "Will he travel with us. ma'am? He's rather young." "He'll go all right." said the elder woman with some agitation. "He knows that he must. But treat him carefully. Now good-by." "Oakland ferry, driver." 1 cried as I stepped into the hack and slammed the door. And in a moment we were dashing out into New Montgomery street, and with a turn were on Mar ket street, rolling over the rough cob bles toward the bav. CHAPTER XXII. Trailed. "Did you see him?" asked Wain wright, as the hack lurched into Mar ket street and straightened its course for the ferry. "Who?" "Tom Terrill. He was behind that big pillar near the arch there. I saw him just as the old lady spoke to you, but before I catches your eye, he cuts and runs." "I didn't see him," 7 said. "Keep the child between us, and shoot anybd;. who tries to stop us or to cli-,j into tho hack. 1 must read mv orders." "All right, s -." said Wainwright, making the child comfortable between us. " J I tnr onen tho -nvelnne and drew lorth the scented 'paper with Its fa miliar, firm, yet delicate handwriting, and read the words: . "Take the train with your men for Livermore. Await orders at the hotel. Protect the boy at all hazards." Ixclosed in the sheet were gold notes to the value of $500 a thought ful detail for which I was grateful at the outset of such an expedition. I thrust the money into my pocket and pondered upon the letter, wondering where Livermore might be. My knowl edge of the geography of California was exceedingly scant, and Livermore was no where to be found in my geo graphical memory. rtt- I had some thought of questioning Wainwright. who was busy trying, to make friends with the child, but re flecting that I might be supposed to know all about it I was silent. Wain wrigth's efforts to get the child to speak were without success. The lit tle thing might from its size have been five years old, but it was dumb frightened, as I supposed, by the strangeness of the situation, and would speak no word. Why was he put thus in my charge? What was I to do with him? Whither was I to carry him? I reproached my self that I had not stopped the Un known to ask more questions, to get more light on the duties that were ex pected of me. But the hack on a sudden pulled up, and I saw that We were before the long, low, ugly wood en building that sat square across Market street as' the gateway to San Francisco, through which the tide ol travel must pass to and from the Gol den City. "Look out on both sides, Wain- wright," I cautioned. "You carry the boy and I'll shoot it there's any trou ble. See that you keep him safe." "There was nearly 10 minutes before the boat left, but the hurry for tickets, the rush to check baggage, the shouts of hackmen and expressmen, the rat tie and confusion of the coming and departing street cars that centered at the ferry made us inconspicuous among the throng as we stepped out of the hack. "Here Fitzhugh, Brown," said, WAS TOO EASILY PERSUADED. One of the Troubles That Beset Hon est Man in Politics. I knew that a certain alderman in a certain town on Long Island was bit terly opposed to granting a franchise to an electric line, and soon after I heard that ihe franchise had been granted and that he had voted for it. I met him on the train and said: "Then you changed your mind about that franchise?" "Yes, I had to." he re plied. "Any particular influence brought to bear?" "Yes. My wife persuaded me into it" "And who per suaded you wife?" "Her brother." "And was he persuaded?" "Yes. a lawyer persuaded him." "And the lawyer?" "Well, I reckon it was the president of the company that per suaded him. I stood out and stood out, but the persuasion was too great." "I have been told on good authority," I continued after a bit, "that the com pany gave the lawyer $1,500 to per suade with." "You don't mean it!" gasped the alderman. "But I do. Yes, sir, an even $1,500." "Then he's a durned skunk and ought to be shown up. He persuaded the whole family of us for $350 and put the rest in his pocket! That's what a man gets for being honest!" St Louis Globe-Democrat Could Have Their Choice. Frederick Sandys, described by Ruskin as the greatest of English draughtsmen, was once asked before he was known to fame to paint the portrait of the mayor of a town, a most estimable3 grocer. The spokes man cf the deputation said that the o-Jimittee was prepared to pay as aigh as $50 for a good portrait, but on seeing the artist's face grow long, add ed that they only wanted a half length. "Oh, of course, that makes a difference," said the artist, most ur- oanely. Which half would you pre- fpr. gentlemen?' catching sight of two of my retainers, "get close about. Have you seen any thing any signs of the enemy?" "I haven't," said Fitzhugh, ""but Abrams thought he saw Dotty Fer guson over by the Fair Wind saloon there. Said he cut up Clay street be fore the rest of us caught sight of him so maybe Abrams was off his nut" "Quite likely," I admitted as we turned the jutting corner of the build ing and came under shelter by the ticket office. -'But keep a close watch." The other four retainers were in the passageway, and I called to the ticket seller lor the tickets to Liver more. By the price I decided that Livermore must be somewhere within 50 miles, and marshaling my troop about the boy, marched into the wait ing room, past the doorkeeper, through the sheds and on to the ferry boat. I saw no sign of the enemy, and breathed freer as the last belated passenger leaped aboard, the folding gangplank was raised and the steamer, with a prolonged blast of the whistle, slid out into the yellow-green water of the bay. "Keep together, boys," I cautioned my retainers. "Has any one seen signs of the other gang?" There was a general murmur in the negative. "Well, Abrams, will you slip around and see if any of them got aboard? There's no such thing as being com fortable until weare suii." In the hurry and excitement of prep aration and departure the orders I had pven and received, and the work that filled every moment, I 'had been con scious of the uneasy burden of a task orgotten. I 'had surely neglected .something. Yet for my life I could not see that we lacked anything. I had my seven retainers, the boy was safe with us, I had my purse, we were well armed and every man had his ticket to Livermore. But at last the cause of my troubles came to my mind. "Great Scott!" I thought. "It's Dodd ridge Knapp. That little engagement "n the stock market is casting its shadow before." It seemed likely indeed that the de mands of my warring employers would clash here as well as in the conflict over the boy. Yet with all the vengeful feeling that filled my heart as I looked on the" child and called up the memory of my murdered friend, I could but feel a pang of regret at the prospect that Doddridge Knapp's fortune should be placed in hazard through any unfaith fulness of mine. My uncomfortable reflections were broken by the clanging engine bells and the forward movement of the pas sengers as the steamboat passed into the slip at Long Wharf. "Stand together, boys," I cautioned my men. "Keep back of the crowd. Wainwright will take the boy, and the rest of you see that nobody gets near him." "All right," said Wainwright, lifting the child in his arms. "It will take a good man to get him away from me." "Where's Abrams?" I asked, noting that only six of my men were at hand. "You sent him forward,"' said Lock hart. "Not for all day' -- ' "Well, he hasn't been seen since you told him to find out who's aboard." "It's no use to wait for him," I growled. "But the next man that takes French leave had better look somewhere else for a job, for by the great horn spoon, he's no man of mine." We marched off the boat in the rear of the crowd, I in no pleasant humor, and the men silent in reflection of my displeasure. And with some difficulty we found scats together in a forward coach. , The train was the east-bound over land, and it seemed hours before the baggage was taken aboard and the signal given to start. I grew uneasy, but as my watch assured me that only 10 minutes had passed when the en gine gave the first gentle pull at the train, I suspected that I was losing the gift of patience. (TO BE CONTINUED.) GIRL KISSES JUDGE'S FEET. Receiving Light Sentence for Serious Offense, Prisoner Is Overcome. Philadelphia, Pa, A remarkable scene was 'witnessed in the court of Oyer and Terminer when Josephine Darmska, a girl of 19, prostrated her self before the judge and covered his hands and feet with kisses. The girl had been convicted of man slaughter for causing the death of her newly born infant on May 24, and Judge Von Moschzisker had imposed the lightest sentence possible, which meant only five months' imprison ment Throughout the day the girl had cowered in the dock, a wretched figure. She is little more than a child in size, and evidently was in fear of a verdict of death, having been in dicted for murder in the first degree. She was, therefore, overjoyed by her escape from the gallov, 5. As she passed the b 'nch on her way to prison she turned and ascended the steps. Two court oC'cers rushed to stop her, but the jud. o waved them aside and held out h's hand with a kindly smile as she aporoached. She seized and kissed it, and then, taking ' the other, also kissed that reverently. When the girl dropped on her knees a court official took her by the arm, but. bursting into tears, she threw herself on the floor and kissed the judge's feet. This done she arose, smiling, and went to prison. House Fly a Common Enemy.

The mosquito will spread only one or two diseases, but the house fly's only specialty iy filth.

Harold's mother we'll call him Har old went abroad a month ago, leav ing Harold under the somewhat un substantial control of his elder sisters. In spite of the Itemized directions with which even unto the moment of final leave-taking she had not ceased to bombard him, Harold's mother was far from sure that her efforts would bave any lasting effect. ' Her voyage was more or less dis turbed by these doubts, but before she landed on the other side she had determined on a course of action. Like all small boys, Harold is most cov etous of picture postcards and had looked forward to a harvest from his mother's trip. He got it. Every day she sent at least one card. And whatever else it bore in the way of inscription, there was not one which failed of this introduction: "Just as scon as you get this go and brush your teeth." DEEP CRACKS FROM ECZEMA Could Lay Slate-Pencil in One Hands in Dreadful State Permanent Cure in Cuticura. "I had ec&exna on my hands for about seven years and during that time I had used several so-called rem edies, together with physicians' and druggists prescriptions. The disease was so bad on my hands that I could lay a slate-pencil in one of the cracks and 'a rule placed across the hand would not touch the pencil. I kept using remedy after remedy, and while some gave partial relief, none relieved as much as did the first box of Cuti cura Ointment I made a purchase of Cuticura Soap and Ointment and my hands were perfectly cured after two boxes of Cuticura Ointment and one cake of Cuticura Soap were used.
