 Disdainful of outside attractions, the adjutant came stalking out to the front as the strain ceased, and his shrill voice was heard turning over the parade to his commander. Then the surging group seemed to be- gin to dissolve, many following 8 lit tie knot of men carrying on their shoulders an apparently inanimate form. They moved in the direction of the old botanical garden, towards the Estado Mayor, and so absorbed were the three in trying to fathom the cause of the excitement that they were deaf to 1gnacio's announcement. A tall, handsome, most distinguished looking young officer stood at the wide doorway, dressed cap-a-pie in snowy white, and not until, after a moments hesitation, he stepped with in the room and was almost upon them, did Miss Ray turn and see him.

Emma Ray as the arrogant. jealous and supposedly much abused wife is as good as ever. Ben Dillyn. Tom Ripley. the Deforests, Hayes and Healey. Lynn sisters.

 Mrs. Brent and the doctor dropped the glasses and whirled about. Both instantly noted the access of color. It had not all disappeared, by any means, though the doctor had, when, ten minutes later, Col. Brent came in.
 At the moment of his entrance, Stsnyvesant, seated close to Marion's reclining-chair. was, with all the doc- tors caution and curiosity, examin- ing her revolver Rather bulky for pocket-pisto tol," he remarked, as, muzzle downward, he essayed it's in- sertion fn the gaping orifce at the right hip nf his Manila-made, Tapping white trousers. It slipped in without a hitch.
 ''What was the trouble out there awhile ago?" asked the lady of the house of her liege lord. 'sYou saw it, I suppose?"
 Nothing much. Man had fit, and it took four men to hold him. Maidie, look here. Capt. Kress handed this to me-said they picked it up just back of where the colonel stood at parade. Is he another mash?' @ 2 :; Marion took the envelope from the outstretched hand, drew forth lit tie carte-de-visite on which was the vignette portrait of her own face, gave one quick glance and dropped back on the pillow. All the bright color fled. The picture fell to the floor. Gan you-fnd Sandy?" was all she could say, as, with imploring eyes, she gazed into honest Brent's astonished face.
 'I can, at once," said Stuyvesant, who had risen from his chair at the colonel's remark. With quick bend he picked up the little card, placed it face downward on the table by her side, never so much as giving one glance at the portrait, and noiseless- ily left the room.
