been cut off so suddenly. But there was something in her words which made Russell's heart beat strangely. Surely not thus would she have heard what he had told her if she had ever loved or could have loved his friend.
 The following days brought no new facts regarding the death of Brown, ex- cept a general confirmation of the re- port. There was no ground for hope, and Russell reflected sadly that he had lost friend in the hour of his utmost need.
 For all things were not well with him. He had been making strong effort to stem the tide, and could make some headway, but the time was short, and the debts which must be met were heavy and pressing. However, he had had good fortune in one or two invest ments recommended by Ray, and with care might hope to make an even show ing in his personal accounts before long. But after that, what? He did not know; and, if the truth must be told, at times he did not care. Yet now and then the life he had been leading, with it's luxury and leisure, would take hold upon him. True, he had found little
 
 better with a longer opportunity? He shuddered to think of a return to the monotonous existence he had led two years before, and yet, in all his ponder ing on the problem which confronted him, he was conscious of feeling that all things were uniting to push him back into the old way. At such times he would remember the wish he had 4o k1.s1 sfr e, two years, and the thought that he should be ready to deliver it up when the time expired. Had that wish been granted, and was the creditor, fate, to call him to speedy account? He hoped he might be ready to meet the demand, but there was still much to be done.
 It has appeared to some men that an attempt to turn over a new leaf was a signal never neglected by the spirit of malevolence. Russell had often exper- fenced this sensation. And now, when he had hope that the time allowed him, though short, would suffice to enable him at least to free himself from pecuni- ary obligations, came the crowning mis- fortune of all. Deering demanded the invention. He accused Russell of cer- tain manipulations of the stock for which, in reality, Ray was respon- sible. Deering said that such operations would ruin the company, and he inti- mated that such was the intention, in order that the interest which would soon revert to him might be cheaply pur chased.
 In vain Russell endeavored to show him the true state of the case. The man was as hard as cast-steel pinion in his

CHAPTER XIV.
LOVES WORD IS LAW.


 When Russell stood in the presence of Alice Ray the various sophistries by which he had persuaded himself that he had right to ask her to be his wife, took their proper shapes like so many hideous genii at the touch of the good enchantress in the old stories of the East. He saw that they were hollow and false; he saw himself, too, for what he was.
 There was an honest vein of romance in his nature. He had often dreamed without the hope of realization, as the blind dream of seeing-that he should some day stand before woman he could love, offering her the service of his life. the love of his whole heart, and asking in return what all men hope to win, but few deserve. The hour for such plead ing had come; and Alice-he had never framed fancy half so worthy. And yet how different was the scene from all that he had pictured. He shuddered at the thought of offering his wretched heart to her.
 A woman seldom lacks a premonition when moment such as this has come. ] Alice saw Russell stand staring at her without speaking; she marked the in , tensity of his gaze and the pallid excite

read, 8 man who had known Brown well came in to tell the news He, too, had seen the item. They spoke to- gether kindly of the dead, and in a mo- ment Russell was left alone. He was sincerely grieved. In thinking on the character of Brown as he had often done since their memorable conversa- tion, he had come to have a higher ap- preciation of his genuine good qualities than he had ever felt when they were together. He had looked forward with pleasant anticipations to Browns re-
 turn, in spite of the thoughts that would come when the face of Alice en-
 tered into such fancies.
 Evidently it was his duty now to carry the news to her. He closed his desk,
 and took a train uptown at once. The
 unusual hour and the serious look in Russell's face alarmed Alice at once. She feared that some mishap had be- l fallen her father. When she learned
 the truth, she expressed great sorrow,
 and spoke with deep feeling of her high opinion of the man whose career had

own machine. He would take the mat ter into the courts. Russell had no heart for such contest. He promised that in a weeks time he would deliver over all his title and his books, and with this promise Deering grumblingly con- sented to be satisfied.
 And so Russell was brought face to face with his destiny. If it had come naturally at the time which he had kept in mind, he might have met it with res ignation, but this hurry of fate seemed like a personal injury, and it embittered him. In this emergency his mind turned to Alice, not gently as he had often thought of her in their last days when his better impulses were awakened, and all seemed traceable to her, but in way of which he was inwardly ashamed. He thought of her as a means of escape from his troubles. He withdrew into a wretched corner of his own soul, and counted her money, like miser who knows the love of it to be sin, but can not shake himself free of it. Death had removed his obligation to his friend. He fixed his eyes upon this little myth and did not see the great falsity of his posi- tion when he should offer a love that was half covetousness.
 A thousand sophistries rose to his aid, and helped him overthrow the weakness of his resolution. He had loved her for herself; he would strive all his life to make her happy; if she loved him what did the motive of his proposal matter? Thus he reasoned, but in reality fear of poverty was stronger than love; his steps were urged by cowardice when he turned them toward her. We'll, 1t was not the first time that the little winged god had had to stop his ears to shut out the jingle of gold.

at the time, but when politics began to thrust itself into prominence in the fall, Rooney took the subject up serious ly, Ray promised financial backing, and it began to look as if Russell had a chance of going to the assembly. King was sure to be the regular Tammany nominee, but Rooney carried Q good many votes in his pocket, and he believed that he could fight his man through. But there was man named Cunningham who was making a strong effort to get the nomination from the county Democrats and independents who were to coalesce. There was prac- tically no Republican strength in the district.
 Cunningham felt so sure of the nom- ination that he had ordered a banquet to be ready when the affair was over, and had invited about hundred prom inent politicians to sit down and re- joice with him. They had all accepted without regard to sentiment, for a Thirtieth district politician never de- clines any thing. Rooney learned of this banquet on the day before the influence of such munificence might affect the result.
 "l'n tell you what we'll do," said Rooney; "we'll just borrow that ban. quet."
 Borrow itr' exclaimed Russell; "how?"
 "We'll send word to the men he's in- vited that the banquet's to be held be- fore instead of after the primary. Make the time about half-past five. Then we'll tell the caterer of the changes in the hour. All these people will come

affair. He's never before had man strong enough to trade on, but he's got him now, an the deal is sure to be made."
 On the strength of this information Russell made a careful investigation under Casey's direction, and he was not long in satisfying himself that Rooney had indeed sold him out. When the truth had fairly found its way into his brain he sauntered down to the King headquarters, where he had talk with several district workers of Tammany. The next day he wrote letter with drawing in favor of King and in the interests of Democratic harmony in the district.
