the figure of a man.

his revolver.
She watched him open the safe anc

4 NIGHT OF TERROR.
By SADIE [. ARONS.

Birdie Clifton was very handsome
girl of eighteen years, whose light
golden curls, large, expressive eyes,
of deep blue, and IA complexion of *.
ouisite fairness, added to a form OF
m4tchIess grace, made her quite a
belle in the small town Of RIverton.
Her fathers only child, petted an
caressed by him, all her wants In,
stantlv obeyed, what wonder Birdie
was as spoiled a girl as could be
found in that part Of the country.
The coming spring she was to have
married a good man who was in ev-
cry way worthy of her; but angry
words were spoken which separated
those two who loved each other so
well. She was too prond to acknowl-
edge herself in the wrong, while be
was only waiting for summons that
would bring him to her side once
more.
"Clide Hall had no reason to get
angry and scold me, just because |
waltzed twice with Frank Vamburg,'
and she would thus silence her con-
science by believing herself greatly
abused.
All this time Frank kept by her
side, paying her every particular at.
tention, accompanying her to all
places of amusements, her constant
companion, to whom she was very
gracious in puclic, but cuttlngly cool
when in the privacy Of her own home.
Rumors were whispered about that
Birdie Clifton and Frank hamburg
were to be married soon, and when it
reached the ears of Glide Hall, he
smiled in every bitterness of spirit.
Birdie said her father, one day,
when matters had been progressing
in this way for a month or more,
Birdie | do not like that Nambnrg.
| have tried to find out something OF
his former whereabouts, but, no one
seems to know anything concerning
him. | have even asked Glide who
was his bosom friend, you know, but
he cannot tell me anything of him,
accept what little is known at his ho-
tel. Glide says
There, papa, don't tell me what
Glide says, for | could almost despise
man who would defame an innocent
man S character. l really did not
think Nj. Hall would stoop to do
anything so mean
"But, my dear, Glide"
II do not want to hear of Glide, >
she again interrupted, almost angrily:
IL will not hear Frank wrongfullv
abused, although do not care for
him in the least" and with kiss she
slenced her father for the time being,
She closed her ears to the slightest
whisper that would breathe suspicion
on Frank character, attrbuting al!
rumors to CIide's hateful, Jealous ma
ture and the result was that poor
abused Frank was pitted the more,
while Glide received the coolest kind
of a recognition when they would
chance to meet.
