CHAPTER Xxx.
"Forger and Thief.

Ethel listened attentively TO the con-
versation that was being carried on be-
tween Lady Station and the newly-en-
tered lady-visitor. Presently there
was pause for some minutes, and
then Helen Digby said:
mfr. Nugent requested the passion
flowers to be taken to his wife. | did
not know that he was married-much
less that he had a wife here"
HE has no wife, asserted the lady
visitor. ut was all nonsense; be said

taste and refinement of a gentleman of

Stephen Crane, the novelist, is dying.

to cause his doctor to give up hope of
his recovery.
Crane is one Of the most picturesque
of the modern novelists, and has won
some fame as war correspondent. His
reputation as novelist depends large
ly upon his first successful book, The
Red Badge of Courage. story dealing
wholly with battle scenes. His descrip-

"The detectives came early this

man was staying at the hotel. Mr..

and they seized him. This Is our

never forget the despair that came over
his face. At first he tried bravado, and
declared 1t was all mistake; but that
failed him; and then, when he heard
the charge upon which he was appre-
hended, and saw the handouts, and
that there was no chance of escape, he
burst into tears. Oh, Ethel, IL you had
seen him, In a very little time every
one In the hotel had crowded into the
hall, and stood round him. He fell
back, like one half fainting; and then

having received him as an equal, 1t was
very hard to witness his humiliation.
He said something to me as left the
hall, but did not hear him distinctly.

voice of Helen Digby. II can under

The pallor on her face and the wild
despair in her eyes increased; but her
head was avertea; neither of the ladies
noticed her.
II do not know" answered Lady
Station; "ore of the servants told me
some little time since that Mr.. Car

cuffed and bound. did not like to

Just at that moment one of the lady
visitors entered the room.

was his fancied roll-call of some dis
