might learn just enough to justify the
issue of an injunction that could be con-

Of these proceedings might elicit facts

Mother st. Gertrude eyed him critic
ally. She was suspicious still OF this
man. She believed his profession Of
love for Isabel. His reputation as a
man of wealth dispelled the idea that he
was after her property. Again, the nun
had not learned Of the value OF the

Raymond 5 factotum was not a news
paper man by training. He was an in
telligent fellow who could write fairly
well and drew two salaries-one from
the paper and one from the city govern
mentor doing nothing, with facii-
ity unequaled. He had sense enough
to realize that it was none of his bust
ness to be inquisitive. 1t did not come
within the province of his duty to ques-
tion motives, to ask the why or where
fore of this or any other matter he
wrote from dictation. That his instruc-
tons were sufficiently clear to enable
him to execute his task satisfactorily
was all he sought. He realized that no
more would be given if he did ask,
and that he might incur displea2ure if
he pressed for more information than
was volunteered.

About two hours later the man re-
turned. Raymond read in his features
the success of the ruse. He drew a
chair nearer to his own, motioned his
emissary to sit down and asked:

ment evoked. THE morgue keeper
identified him, as did all the boys. The
face was badly battered. The Bugle
reporter also recognized the body and
said that Mangan had been missing for
several days, and that there was let

"Yes."
"Well, go on"
That's all, except that the boys are
going to hold a meeting and arrange
for the funeral. They say there must
have been foul play; that Mangan new

YES"

CHAPTER XIV.
MANGAN AT WORK IN DENVER.
MI -, ,,,.,., NI.,,,,,,,,

SIlAI En- ANs
MANGAN AT WORK IN DENVER.
Where was Mangan?
Even his professional associates had
come to the conclusion that he it was
whose body had lain in the morgue.
The newspapers had notices of the
death. The Bugle's managing editor
said that Mangan must have had "A few
hundred dollars about him and that he
had probably been dubbed, robbed and
thrown into the river. But the coro-
ner's jury declared that Mangan had
committed suicide, and that settled it as
far as the public was concerned.
And all the while Mangan was very
much alive.
The day after the penitentiary Incl
dent he drew some money from trust
company where he had a small ac-
count and a few hours later was on the
fast express to Denver. He had never
been in that hustling city, knew abso-
lutely no one in it and had not made
up his mind what particular course to
pursue.
1t was six days after he met Ray
mond in the penitentiary and five days
before the announcement that the body
in the morgue was his own corpse,
when he reached his journeys end. He
had taken couple Of days in going
around town. Itworld do him no harm
to get view of the place. and gain
sligh. acquaintance with the topogra-
ply. He might remain there for weeks,
and the knowledge would be of service
to him.
Had he parted with Isabel under cir
cumstances more encouraging, he would
have written. But, AS he had intimat-
ed to Mother st. Gertrude, he had no
intention of writing to either the nun
or Isabel until he knew the probability
of success OF defeat. He had been CIV
en- no hint that Isabel herself knew Of
the heritage that was hers, and no
deemed il unwise TO hold out hope un-
til he had pushed his investigation fur
Their. He had thought Of writing a note,
giving his address, SO that Isabel. IL
she felt so inclined, might write a let
ter of explanation that would relieve
him of the mental strain her last recep-
ton had placed him under. But he re-
solved not to do 80. He would continue
to prove his loyalty and fight for the
millions that were rightfully hers in
her possession. He was too proud To
exact any promise while engaged in
this mission, and the enigmatical ut
terances of the girl and the mother SUI
perior, though puzzling, gave no indi-
cation that their solution would be nn-
favorable 10 his conduct and character.
He would wait the outcome patiently.
But his plans TO ferret out the crime
he was certain Raymond was guilty of
remained underlined. One thing he had
decided ON. He would seek a situation
ON newspaper. He could learn more
Of a city and its people in newspaper
Office than anywhere else. The place
would afford better advantages for OBJ
servation than any other, and thero
would he at least few men ON tho

II Is reported from Washington that Sen
ator Hill is already organizing movement
to prevent the confirmation of Peckham as
justice of the supreme court and that it
will, apparently, be an easier task than it
was in the casa Of Hornblower. Indeed,
the general. feeling in congressional
circles seems to be that Peckham
wa, nominated for the place, not be-
cause of his fitness for the performance Of
its important duties; bat in order to get in
a slap at Senator Hill. Peckham is an out
spoken enemy of the senior New York SEN
ator and was prominent leader in the an
ti-snapper movement. He expressed him
self very freely upon the Hornblower re-
lection in q public interview. denouncing
both of the New York senators as political
ligh,-weights and tricksters. Many believe
that this fact was what led President Cleve-
land to nominate him. The opinion is grow
ing that he will never be confrmed.

EDITORS TABLE.

No annual Issued by any American news
paper i, superior to the New York Tribune
Almanac, either in the vide range of mat
ter contained or in the accuracy of its state
ments. The Tribune Almanac for 1894 is
the best that has ever been issued. 1t con-
tains over 3G0 pages but 10 sold at the same
price as it was in the early forties
when it contained only sixty-twenty- 1--we
cents. There is scarcely any subject OF
general interest to American people
upon which statistical information is
not contained in this work. 1t is indis-
pensable to all who ~ish to be informed
upon the current conditions of this country.
Its returns of the elections of 1898 are
wonderfully full and accurate, and the
statement of the financial outcome of the
Columbian Exposition is one which will be
of interest to great many people. While
this almanac is issued by Republican pa
per, its contents are in no sense partisan
and members of sll parties can ac-
cept with full confidence its statis-
tics upon coinage, circulation, foreign
trade, elections, population. pensions, rev.
eaues, banking, divorce, marriage, sports,
and hundreds of other matters upon whit h
. atistical information is fully accorded in
it, columns. Tie almanac is one Of grest
value, and is put in excellent shape fer
ready reference by fine index. 1t will
ssnt postpaid to any address in the Unit d
States upon receipt of 25 cents.
