CHAPTER xxIII.

It is a very pale and fragile Nadine who is looking at Duran in the morning room.
 ''Now you are safe," says he, smiling. He presses her gently into a huge arm chair, and stirs into glow the dying embers of the fire. A chill has fallen upon the night. As the warmth comes to her, as she realizes that here, perhaps, Granit will not seek her, as she sees the beloved face of Duran leaning over her, she lets sense of joy and comfort steal through her being, and as child, tired and weary, who sees it's mother, might do, she stretches out her arms to Duran. In moment she is lying on his breast.
 "Oh, to be herep' she cries faintly. "To be herein your arms-safe. You will never let me go, will you? You will not let him take me from you?'
 "Never, while life is in me! But do not wish to see you so unnerved, my dearest. Come, take heart! Consider! In these prosaic days a gir cannot be torn from her home by any chance conner. Even if you were alone, you could resist him, because your promise to him has now been cancelled; but even if it had not been so, still I am here, your guardian and-your lover.''
 My own Mauricer She slips her arm round his neck. She is yet in her ball gown, and it is soft, bare little arm, rounded as q baby's, that encircles him. He turns his head to kiss it tenderly.
 ''It is a terrible thought" says Duran, presently, land I am honestly ashamed of it; but I cannot help feeling that this miserable nights work has been our sal vetion.''
 "Yesterday was the most miserable man alive-you were lost to mel To- night, am the happiest-you are gainedl For the future let us banish from us all thoughts save those that remind us that by most strange chance we have been given to each other just when hope seemed dead.''

Judge Norton on Lynch Law.

The Pickens Sentinel prints the
full text. of Judge Norton's charge
to the grand jury at Pickens last
week, in which occurred the fol-
lowing:
BY our constitution the people
surrendered their natural right to
govern themselves, each according
10 his own will, and agreed not to
aVcngc themselves forinjurics done
them by others. They agreed to
elect Legislators to make laws by
which all should be governed, and
to have Judges and juries and *
eCutiVC officers chosen who should
condemn and punish criminals and
Go justice between man and man,
according to the laws enacted, and
thereby they further agreed that
no laws contrary to these should
be enacted, and punishmcnts
should not be otherwise inflicted.
He who violates this compact is,
whether he knows it or not, an an
archist, whether such violation
consist in the attempt by ridicule
to diSSuhdc from the enforcement
of the least important Of the law
fully enacted rules Of court or in
murder by iynching one supposed
to be guilty Of crime. If any law,
great or small, fairly enforced
prove obnoxious, the people will,
through the proper channel, see to
its repeal. If we fail to enforce
the law, instead of peace and or
der, tumult and anarchy will pre-
vail, the strong will Cypress the
weak, the crafty will circumvent
the honest, the mob will run riot
with the quiet, inoffensive citizens.
Where two races live in the same
territory, race prejudice always ex-
lists. One circle it never should en-
ter; it Is here. No! Let every
citizen stand equal before the law
and in III courts let his life, his
liberty and his property depend
alone upon the Justice of his aus
If the dominant race be wise it
will treat the other with justice
and equity.
