The witch party" given by Miss Ethel
Burleigh nj her home on State street Sat
urtiay evening. the 18th anniversary of her
birthday, was n peculiarly pleasurahle birth
day party as its name would imply.
The guests came attired after the fashion
set by the Salem witches 200 years ago,
long black gowns and tall peaked hats of
midnight shade and trimmings They were
supposed TO arrive on the proyerbiai broom
stick unattended save by foo,men in the
sombre livery and form of the black cat.
Mise Burle,gh presided in the Witches
Den" where the guests were received
The den" was lighted with dull red light
that brought out in startling approach to
reality the surroundings which were weirdly
appropriate. the seething cauldron, with its
magic brew, forming the centre piece.
Other rooms were suitably decorated for
the occasion, and the hour that was passed
in them was spent in entertainment, the
nature of which par;ook of the spirit of the
occasion. Then mysteries of witcheraft
were laid aside and the guests enjoyed q
social evening under 10Th century eondi-
tons.

very much as usual, except that he was
given next to nothing to do. When he
thought it all over by himself, as, OF

no promises of secrecy from him But,
then, this was no stranger than the

ing with her rebellious daughter until
the next morning. She could not en-
dure the encounter so soon after the de-
fiance. She had all small natures
faith in a Fabian policy of delay.
She, therefore, went out for
a drive, leaving word with
a servant that she had an
engagement to dine with q
friend, would not be back until late,
and Miss Lebourgeois had better not
sit up for her. While the daughter was
planning a bold campaign, and was
longing for an opportunity to open the
war, the mother had beat temporary
retreat The daughter swept into the
dining-room in her haughtiest manner,
only TO wss:s s=T grand airs on chill
ing emptiness and a butler. The mes.
sage from her mother was soon deliv-
cred, and the girl began the attack on
a six-course dinner in solitary state.
Determined to brave it out before the
servants, and not let them gather a
hint from her manner of the extent
of the quarrel, she forced herself
to eat even more than usual,
and to linger longer than her
wont at the table. Was the sharp
sighted butler deceived2 Not a bit.
"Miss Lou made an awful fuss over her
dinner" he remarked il the kitchen
later, 'as if she was going to eat
enough for herself and her mother, too.
But even a cock-eyed man could see
that her victuals stuck in her throat
and nearly choked her to death, poor
thing" The mushroom was next
tried, but the piano had nothing in it
EXCEPT discords. The library was no
better. II wonder if bright book
was ever written by anybody" was
Miss Lebourgeois' reflection, as she be-
took herself to her own room. She
would not seem to lie in wait for her
mother, so the drapery was quickly
wrapped about her. The only incident
that had occurred was the receipt
of a basket of flowers bearing
the card of the Count de
Fooliers, with Regrets an

CHAPTER X.

81 suppose that you have more back
than you have yet told me, Mr.. Archer,
said Paul, ''or you would hardly have
inveigled me up here to such a mys
FERROUS place, on such a FOOLS errand
Here is gentleman engaged to a mos
reputable and carefully guarded young
lady, whom you denounce as an inpos
tor, and worse, simply on the resem
blance which detective-of whom, al
told, you could have seen but little
thinks that gentleman's eyes bear
to those of the valet of an Englishman
who is supposed to have been muir,
dered in Australia. Further than that
instead of there being anything
mysterious about this gentleman, in
response to cable, you learn that he
has come to America direct from
Tremblay, his home, a small place,
where his identity could hardly by any
possibility be liable to mistake Add
to this the certainty that family such
as the Lebourgeoises must have looked
up his antecedents before permitting
Miss Lebourgeois to egage herself to
him; that Frank Lebourgeois-as l
see no reason to deny your first infer
ences about my knowledge of the
family-is the last person IN the world
to accede to his sisters betrothal, with
out searching inquiries; and your
suspicious are ridiculous as the grin on
yonder skeleton, or your deductions
from the astrological map. 1 wait
what you have in store further" said
Paul, looking Archer full in the face
Archer made no reply for a minute or
two.
You do not know Keene," he said,
slowly, ''and you take into no account
the fact that something may be in that
letter to confirm the worst. Eat l am
going to ask nothing unpleasant of
you. Graham, the Englishman, had in
his possession. when he left England,
curious ring and locket. The former
was a family relic obtained ages ago,
no one knew how, from Venice 1t was
in the form of snake ring, very large
and noticeable, the outside being of
delicate filigree work. Originally it had
been used by Venetian for
those dark purposes which marked one
period of that BLOOD red country's his
tory. 1t concealed inside two lions
claws of steel, which, in turn, concealed
a deadly poison. Its noble owner, at
ball or fete, had only to press the hand
of his enemy with unusual warmth to
shoot out into that enemy's veins, by
the slightest Gf scratches, the deadly
poison, and thai enemy lived not to see
the end of that ball or fete. This ring
always fascinated the eccentric
Graham. A novel thought struck him.
Before leaving England he had the
lions claws removed, and the inside
set with ten of the rarest of small
each one warranted to be
worth e1O0. The ring was thus intrin.
sically worth $1,000, but not a
single brilliant flashed forth to
the eye when the ring was
worn. They were arranged to spell |

CHAPTER II.

PAT was never more Surprised in his
life than when, on the following Fri
day, he received Mrs, Lebourgeois'
note. 1t was handed to him by the
Colonel, in whose care it had been sent,
as Paul had-he then thought-almost
supertluously limited in his WELL
remembered answer to Miss Lebour-
geois' generous epistle. 1t reminded
him of something that had escaped
him entirely-that Miss Lebourgeois'
ball-dress was still unwritten up
for the Orb. Other things had
driven entirely from his memory
that unluclSy yet most lucky
garment in whose train had followed
so many startling consequences to
himself. That gown should 0e ne
elected no longer He made minute
of it and later wrote it up, handing
the copy to Abe, without a word. No
comment came from AhS, nor had his
memory been previously logged. Paul
had been treated with great respect at
the Orb office, handled in fact like
basket of eggs, ever since Archer took
him up. But to return to the dinner
invitation.

a little previous to the supposed time
of his murder. No trace of the valet
had been discovered. He had probably
left Australia, and needle in a hay
stack would now be an easier object of
search, especially as no one at the time
had any particular interest in prosecut-
ing it.
"Keene had given that Graham mat
ter up, when he ran across the Count
in the Lindell hotel. His first act when
his memory came to him was to cable
a bl other in the service to find out
whether there was any Count de Fool
iers, of the village of Tremblay, in the
south of France, from which the Count
registered. The answer was disap-
pointing. There was such Count.
He had been in the village recently;
he had left 1t to sail for America. II it
had been any other man than Keene
he would have readily accused hi.
memory of playing him trick. Keene
was not that other man. He
cabled back to send him by
the first mail every detail, personal and
collateral, get-at-able, in the
Counts career. He thought he wa.
safe to wait as the Count, if he were
indeed bogus, was evidently so sure OF
his disguise that he would not be
likely to. rush off incontinently, and
spoil his chance for a wealthy and
handsome bride. To-day Keene re
ceIved cable that the letter was or
its way. 1t might possibly, though
not probably the cable said, contain
the desired information. And now
shall l tell you what I think you car
do to have Keene ready for the recep
ton of that letter."

Accidents.

Wednesday afternoon, a lad named
Martena, employed in L. L. Shaw's cot
ton mill, Yarmouth, fell down the ele-
vator shaft, breaking an arm badly and
suffering from severe scalp wound. Dr..
Bates was called. 1t is thought that the
lad has not sustained internal injuries.
Mr.. Boothby, the gunsmith, while
standing in the doorway of Legrow' S
stable Wednesday night, was struck by a
carriage and so badly hurt that he was
confined to his house, corner of Cumber-
land and Chestnut streets.
Mr.. Charles Maddox, chef at the
Sherwood, was frying some CLAIMS last
evening, when dish of fat was acct
dentally upset, and took fire, burning his
right hand and arm badly. 1t is hoped
that from the prompt treatment he re.
ceived his wounds, while painful, will
not prove serious.
