his eyes fell on the young lady'sl face.
For an instant he stood petriiled. 1t
was the face of the Daguerreotype.
II beg pardon" he stammered, "but
are these your initials?1 She hesitated,
perhaps 1t was the abruptness OF the
question, but he saw she looked con,
fused.
mo A friends"
She disappeared into another car
riage, but from that moment Harry
Flint knew that he had no other aim
in life but 10 follow this clue and the
teautlfui girl who had dropped it. He
bribed the guard at the next station,
and discovered that she was going to
York On their arrival, he was ready
on the platform to respectfully assist
her. A few words disclosed the fact
that she was a fellow-countrywoman
although residing in England, and at
present on her way to some friends
at Harrogate. Her name was West.
At the mention Of his, he again fan
cled she looked disturbed.
They met again and again; the in
formality of his introduction was over
looked by her friends, as his assumed
name was already respectfully and re-
sponsibly known beyond California. He
thought no more of his future. He
was in love. He even dared to think
1t might be returned; but he felt he
had no right to. seek that knowledge
until he had told her his real name
and how he came to assume another's.
He did so alone-scarcely month after
their first meeting. To his alarm she
burst into flood of tears, and show
ed an agitation that seemed far beyond
any apparent cause. When she had
partly recovered. she said in low,
frightened voice:
You are bearing my brothers name.
But it was name that the unhappy
boy had so shamefully disgraced in
Australia that he abandoned it, and,
as he lay upon his deathbed, the last
act of his wasted life was to write an
imploring letter begging me to change
mine too. For the infamous compan-
ion of his crime, who had first tempted,
then betrayed him, had possession Of
all his papers and letters, many of
them from me, and was threatening
to bring them to our Virginia home
and expose him to our neighbors. Mad
dened by desperation, the miserable
boy twice attempted the life of the
scoundrel, and might have added that
blood-guiltiness to his other sins, had
be lived. l did change my name to
my mothers maiden one, left the coun-
try, and have lived here to escape the
revelations of that desperado, should
he fulfill his threat"
In a flash of recollection Flint re-
membered the startled look that had
come into his assailant's eye after they
had clinched. 1t was the same man
who had too late realized that his an
tagonist was not Fowler. THANK Godl
you are forever safe from any exposure
from that man." he said gravely, "and
the name of Fowler has never been
known in San Francisco save in all
respect and honor. 1t is for you to
take back-fearlessly and alone!"
She did-but not alone, for she shar.
ed it with her husband.

PROMINENT MEXICAN SLAIN.
An Appeal to the Code Duello in
Mexico Results Fatally.

An Appeal to the Code Duello in
Mexico Results Fatally.
St Louis, Mo, Aug 1O.-A special to
the Globe-Democrat from the city of
Mexico says: in a duel with pistols
last evening, Senor Jose Verastegui, chief
of the government stamp department,
was killed by Francisco Romero, a we'll
known congressm an. The seconds of Yer
astegui were Apoliauaio Costello, presi-
dent OF the Mexican Senate and editor
of FL PartidO Liberal and Ramon Prida,
a congressman and editor of Ell Univer-
sal.
The seconds of Romero were Senior
BOrrOlo, a Spaniard; Gen. Laro Garlic,
ex-governor of Chihuahau, and member
Of the senate. The duel was the result of
quarrel over woman, and occurred
shortly after O'Clock, near the American
cemetery, on the outskirts of the city, On
the first fire Nerastegui fell with a ball in
his heart, and the body was taken to the
police station.
The affair has created huge sensa-
tion in government and social circles, and
is the most sensational for a dozen years.
The quarrel started Wednesday after
noon and was so warm that the challenge,
acceptance and date were at once attended
To-
lit is expected that this duel will put an
effecJual quietus on the rising tide Of
dueling in Mexico, and may result in the
enactment of new and stringent laws
against meetings on the field of honor
There are seven duels on the tapis in
this city at present. All the principals
are prominent men, three of them being
members of the national congress, and
the others well-kn0wn business men.
Personal misunders landings of different
kinds are the cause in each case"
