CHAPTER XXIIl
Love and Honor

While the barOnet and his niece had
been wondering that Stanley Clare
mont was still absent from the man
sion, that gentleman was i'll reality
shut up within his own rooms
He had stolen unpcrceived into the
house, and, lacking the courage yet to
encounter his uncle and his uncle'S
guests, had hidden himself, as we have
said.
He had thrown himself into a chair
to await the coming of his accomplice.
Abraham Mailer had said five
minutes they passed, and Abraham
had not arrived.
A quarter of an hour-half an hour
flew by, and Abraham came not; and
pale and trembling, and almost crazed
with fear was Stanley Claremont.
Again and again he started from his
chair, only again and again to throw
himself back therein in despair and
terror.
Every instant he drew forth and
looked at his watch-every instant he
listened, believing that he heard the
sound of Abraham's approaching step.
each time to be disappointed, and to
sink back. moaning with the agony of
his baffled hopes.
At one moment he felt assured that
his accOmplice had betrayed him, and
would not be there at all; the next in
slant he felt equally certain that not
willingly had Abraham delayed TO fol-
low, as he had promised that he would
do.
Yes, Abraham's cupidity was a safe
guarantee for his integrity to his pres
ent employer!
Tony Drummond had, perhaps,
crossed the peddler'S path, might have
sought to tempt, but was far too poor
to purchase him.
Then came the thought that Abra-
ham might have been arrested, and in
duced. by a promise of immunity to
himself. to say where was hidden that
all-impOrtant leaf.
But Abraham had said that the leaf
was concealed in M of SANKEY'S own
apartments.
And Stanley strOve to refiect-to con
slider, for his brain was in n whirl-hiS
mind in Il tempest.
On lcaping from the window the ped
der would have found himself in the
garden. and. seeking Il way by which
he might escape. he would come 10 one
of the doors of the apartment in which
Stanley now was IA door which
opened on to the garden, and which
was very often left Enclosed.
Yes. in this room in which he sat ut

den that torn leaf of the jewelers. sale
book. Stanley had not the slightest
doubt of that.
Could he but secure that leaf, Abra.
ham come or stay away, just as ii
should please him best.
Stanley would search.
He embraced with II rapid glance
the whole apartment, and then again
drew forth his watch.
1t lacked but a quarter of an hour tC
midnight.
Would he have time to hunt through
cut the capacious room?
He would be stayed for by his uncle
and the rest!
They would seek him out where ht
then was!
And, besides, who could say that hC
might not pass twenty times near the
desired object, without his heart throb
bling more precipitately TO warn hin
that it was within his reach?
And then another, and a terribl,
thought came to Stanley.

Oh, dear. if | didn't think he wasn't
no goOd!' stammered Boots, in great
alright, and drawing the pocketbook
from his box and offering it to Tony.
Abraham appeared totally unobserv-
n Of what was going on, and stood
very quietly, and seemingly in great
abstraction.
In fact, matters had grown very des-
perate with him; and he was prepar-
ing, as he believed, Il desperate
remedy.
81 don't want the book" Tony said
TO Boots; 'only the sheet of paper that
it contains"
The lad drew a slip of paper from the
p~ocketbook.
'"That is not it," cried Tony.
"There's no ether paper here" said
the boy: nor nOthinn' else, except this
here little tiny key
And he showed Tony that there
really had beer nothing more in the
book.
Tony's first thought, then, was that
he had was defeated.
His belief that he had been duped,
that Abraham's cunning had been an
overmatch for straightforward honesty
Stanley Claremant's accomplice had
supposed that their foe might be on the
watch, and so had laid q trap for him.
batting it with that slip of paper,
which he had rightly believed Tony
would clutch at as the leaf of which he
was in search.
Tony'S agony, as these thoughts
rushed through his mind, was terrible
indeed.
The poor fellow had not seen that
Abraham had written on the piece of
paper which had been placed in the
pocketbook, or he would have acted
very differently.
Here's some writing!' csied Boots.
Tony snatched the paper from the
boys land, and read:
THE torn leaf is in the little ebony
casket that stands on a table in one Of
Mr.. Stanley Claremont's apartments.

after all, he was more indebted to his
luck than his judgment.
Addressing Abraham. said Tony,
"YOu wish now, j dare say, that you
had not taken the trouble to write
these few lines!"
A malignant look was Abraham's
answer to that question: but he was
thinking how it was that he should
now be threatened with utter ruin
from the very cause against which he
had so often and SO earnestly in
weighed.
Tony grasped the prisoner by the
arm, to lead him away. saying. Come
along to Sir Loghlen's house. but the
visit will be neither so pleasant nor SO
profitable to you as you had hoped
Abraham offered not the slightest re.

dark street, when suddenly Tony felt
that he was struck with n knife.

The Swiss Parliament.

A parliament at which the discus
sions are carried on in three different
languages is probably unique.
The country where this singular fact
occurs is we'll known to English tourists
--viz, Switzerland. But few, l believe,
have ever had an occasion to be present
ct the sitting of a Swiss parliament.
The languages spoken by the mem
bers are French, Italian and German.
Italian, true, is o as often employed
as the other two, the members for Tcs-
sin, a canton i'll the south, very often
delivering their speeches in French. As
almost every educated Swiss speaks
French and Gcrmau, members are there
fore able to understand each Others
speeches, although spoken in a different
language to their own.
1t also often happens that when Il
French speaking member wishes to
make a stronger impression on the Ger
man speaking part Of the house he de-
ljvers his speech i'll German, and also
vice versa. -Pcarsou's Weekly.

pion the abilities of Taral, Sims, Griffin,
Doggett, Clayton, McCafforty, Sloan
and q number Of others whose prowess
in the saddle has made them moro or

Undoubtedly tho premier jockey Of
this country today is Fred Taral. Like
all American jockeys, he rides with a
short rein and short stirrup, and while
he "perches" in the saddle rather than
sits down squarely into q graceful, easy
seat, still he gives II the impression
Of great force, driving power and COM
pleto control over his mount.
TIL negro is q born horseman, but it
Is not otteA that any of his race ever
makes a really great jockey. Isaac Muir

days was a sup~erlativoly fine horseman
and u great jockey. Willie Sims, a light

In contradistinction to both Taral and
Sims, so far as elegance and grace OF

tho premier jockey in August Belmont

CITY OF THE GOLDEN GATE.
Freaks of the Temperature and T~opogra-
ply In San Francisco.

San Francisco sprawls over q sandy
peninsula shaped like a clinched fist,
with its face to the east and the noble,
lnndlocked bay which the navies of the
world would not crowd, and with its
back to the Pacific ocean, which rolls
in without u break from China, 1000
miles away. 1t covers an area of 20
square miles, though much of this is
built over in struggling fashion. 1t has
thrice as many hills as Rome boosted
Of, but over the highest of these the ca
BILE cars climb. Seen from the bay at
night, the spectacle is superb, as the
streets are transformed into parallel
lines Of twinkling lights that seem to
ascend, like Jacobs ladder, to the stars.
Justin Mccarthy in Lady Judith"
gives the most poetical as we'll as the
most faithful picture Of this remarkable
sight of San Francisco from the bay.
Had the original builders Of the city
adopted the Italian custom Of carrying
streets around hills, with tcrraced gar
dens, San Francisco would be the most
beautiful city i'll the world. AS it is,
many OF the streets are merely great,
unsightly bitches that run i'll ugly par
allel lines up the steep hills and through
their submits. From a score of points
Of vantage Il may get superb views of
the bay, the harbor with its picturesque
islands, the encircling hills and the
Golden Gate, the marrow entrance
through which come and go the ships of
the orient.
What impresses the visitor TO San
Francisco most forcibly is the peculiar
fondntss for the bay window. But this
taste seems natural and sensible when
be is told that it is due to the necessity
Of getting all the sunshine that can be
secured. Here, as III Italy, between sun
shine and shade there is the difference
between summer and winter. The San
Francisco climate is the greatest eli
mate in the world for continuous work,
as the mean temperature is Go and there
Is no summer heat. But it is a trying
climate for any one with weak lungs Or
tender throat. The summer is harsher
than the winter, 40 cold trade winds
and heavy f0gs render tho nights chilly
and mako a CRATE fire comfortable. Sep
TENDER is the finest month in the year,
rs the trade winds do not blow and the
days are warm and sunshiny.-Chau-
