Violet's letter was keeping his hear {
warm this day az Tamai. He was feel
ing unaccountably happy and light
hearted, as after a sharp tussle with
half-a-dozen Arabs, three of whom he
killed with his revolver, he was allowed
breathing time for few minutes, dur
ing which he cut the word "Suallim"
on the little black pipe that had been
his inseparable companion during the
whole of the campaign.
Suddenly just as he had lighted and
returned smoking it, he heard frantic
shout, and glancing up he saw young
Kellar dash forward and fire at some
one behind him (Jack). Simultaneous
ly he felta sharp agonizing pain in his
back, and he knew that he was struck
by poisoned spear. An Arab, who
had been concealed in n bush, had crept
out and stabbed him before young Kel-
lar could intervene
. He had staggered and then fallen on
his face, and they thought he was
dead for minute. But when they
lifted him and were carrying him away
faint flicker of the old fun came into
his fading blue eyes as he said:
Il wanted Violet and the V. c. so
much. S'pose twas Satan"

Violet Kellar had fought hard fight
before she had gained her fathe: con-
sent to become engaged to penniless
Jack Colville. The girls brilliantly
good looks, attractive manners and gen.
eral cleverness had brought numbers
of far more eligible men to her feet
But she had been faithful to her first
love through it all.
Il hate poverty, but | love Jack she
would say, when her father pointed out
to her how far more sensible it would
be of her to marry man who could
give her a good establishment in which
he could stay at home in case with her,
than to link her lot with that of mere
subaltern in marching regiment.
Probably after they have settled
this disturbance in Egypt his regiment
will be sent off to India for three or
four years, and as he can't marry on
his pay you will be left behind to med
itate on your folly in having engaged
yourself"
II shall marry him as soon as this
affair is over in Egypt, papa, and if he
can't give me bread and water enough
to support me I'll beg it from some
one who can. don't want good es-
tablisment or husband who will stay
at home in ease. | want Jack, and I
mean to have him."
The boy always got what he WANT
ed, confound him." her father grum-
bled, good temperedly, and when he
said that, Violet knew that her case
was won.
Her mother after the manner o;
mothers, sympathized with the young
peoples romance, and hopefully AS
surcd her that Jack would win promo
ton in some miraculous way without
seeing much dangerous service.
So when Violet said: Mother, dear,
! don't want n swell wedding, don't
even want a wedding likes
me in sailor serge better than any
thing: but do want TO go out and be
as near him as | can. Take me to
Cairo, and let the chaplain marry
us as soon as the fighting over"
Mrs. Kellar agreed to do so. and all
their acquaintarces declared that the
mother was as great n fool as the
daughter.

to prevent Treasurer Biddle and Auditor
Prather from paying the salaries of the leg
islators and attaches, which Is in reality the
method determined upon to permit the

In the district court room was nearly every
lawyer in the city. The room was crowded.

his assistant in the case. Judge Webb, MAIN
tanned that tine attorney general had the
right and authority to order the case dropped /:
that the district court had no jurisdiction in
the case, AID that County Attorney Curtis
had no power to bring the suit.
Judge HaZen Overruled the motion and
demurrer. He held that the district court did
have authority in the case and that the drop
ping OF the case was matter of discretion
with the court. He said. IF these matters
are to be settled. they must be settled by the
court. Force is now prevailing and armed
men guard the city. but force will not pre-
vail long,"

the rulings of the court and gave notice that
he would appeal the case to the supreme

CHAPTER ".
TIE TRUTH REVEALED.

Beatrice Mercer was seated at desk
correcting some exercises Of the pupils,
her own portfolio spread out before her.
The color died from her face as she
recognized her visitor, then it turned
deep-red with reactionary emotion.
His thoughts were too full of Edna to
allow of his reading Alright the tremu-
lous emotion, the half-repressed fright
that his hostess betrayed

Il have come to ask of you the irfor-

Why did Edna Deane leave the semi

Il cannot tell you"
His eyes flashed excitedly. He
clenched his hands in an excess of suf-
fering and suspense.
You must!" he gasped. frantically.
DO you understand what I am endur-
ing? NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS."
From beneath her veiled eyelids the
girl studied his working face. Crafti-
ness was there, but well masked A
sinister triumph in her heart gave her
strength to simulate.
L pity you" she said, softly. Il
would be glad to tell you all, but it is
useless"
"Useless?"
Yes. She has left the seminary,
Hopedale. her friends, forever. She has
gone to her relatives under q vow never

Beatrice. bulking all her fancied power

you force me to tell these bitter truths?

She never knew her own mind. There

His head had sunk on his breast. He
believed now, and his heart was broken.
Beatrice had drawn nearer to him.

There was that in his heart so manly,
SO straightforward, SO inclined to doubt
the falsity Of the woman he had so
blindly trusted. despite the terrible evil
dence in his hands, that. though the
meeting killed him, he was determined
to have the matter settled now and
finally.
He would demand to see Edna-he
would show her the letters. His philan-
thrOpic friends had more than once told
him that all wOmankind were changing
butterflies Of sentiment. II she had

A servant admitted him and took his
card to the lady principal. Miss Chand-
Ter loOkeC serious as she entered the
room, hut greeted him with the geniality
she always bestowed on Edna's friends.
She started at the sight of his wretched
face, however.
Miss Chandler, he spoke, in his mis-
cry and agitation neglecting to take her
proffered hand. Il wish to see Edna

pal, wonderingly. why! did you not

his heart taking a new alarm.
That she is gomez
"Gone!" he repeated, blankly. Gone?
When, were. with whOm?"
She left us last evening. Poor, dear
Edna; her happy school life is over,
and-why, Mr.. MARSHALL"
He had arisen to his feet at her first
startling ords. He felt his senses reel
ing now. and swayed where he stood.
The sight of such vivid emotion in a
strong man alarmed the gentle lady.
Go on" he choked out, waving his
hand agitatedly. 1T is nothing. The
shock, the suddenness--"
Surely she wrote you that she was
going:"
NO. That is You say she went
last EVENING""
YES"
Alone? Why did she leave so abb

His heart hung on the reply. Miss
Chandler's face fell.

subdued tone, you must not ask me.

nations. In fact, 1 know very little.
She left in safe hands, of that l am as
sured, and she will never return to
HOpedale. 1t has depressed us all; but
surely she will soon write to you and
explain.
Miss Chandler. I must know where
Edna Deane has gone. You must tell
me more!"
His voice was husky, but it bore
ring of sharp, lacerating anguish.
L cannot. l never break promise
once made, Mr.. Marshall" spoke the
lady, with dignity. You may see Miss
Mercer, if you choose. She was Ednas
most intimate friend. She may have
the right to tell you, but 1 cannot.
Edna may have left message with
her."
ALLOW me to speak with her, please"
How strained and unnatural were his
tones! How like q man marching to
his doom he followed Miss Chandler
down the broad hall and to the door of
the Office Of the seminary.
Miss Mercer is in there alone,
think" spoke Miss Chandler. Yes.
