CHAPTER XIV.

The major happened to be alone when that telegram reached him. See ing that it was foreign. he let it lie unopened on his desk till the servant had gone, then with many misgivings as to it's import he opened it. That single word conveyed more to his dis turbed consciousness of impending dis aster than a dozen bold threats could have done. He told himself that Jeanne had had just sufficient time to was on her way home.
 But what could she be coming back for-running such great risks of detec- tion? Perhaps it was that she might confront Blanche suddenly and cause the girls death from the shock of the true situation. Perha ps-Goddard put the telegram into the fire and watched it burn. A big lump of despair was in his throat. At that moment, if, by a death of long lingering torture, he could have purchased BIanche's happi- ness he would have submitted without 2 murmur. The better side of his na- ture was now uppermost and he had become actually strong man. Sud denly he wondered if he might not with round sum of money buy Jeanne off from her evident murderous plans, but Blanche's means were not to be thought of. Hearing the clicking of Talley's typewriting ma chine, and fired with a certain resolve, he crossed the hall and entered the study.
 "Talley," said he. "have you still faith in that stocll?'
 ''More than ever. major" said Taney. with smile. T wish had more money to invest in it''
 Goddard sat down near the young man.
 "Talley, I need money awfuEy. By placing mortgage on all my effects 1 could raise hundred thousand. If ] go into this deal it will be to lose al, or win heavily. 1 am half a mind tc plunge. What do you thinlc?'' The young man raised his eyes slowly.
 "But surely you are not so far gone as that" he ventured. 1T think you 1 said Mrs. Goddard's fortune was | good shape.'

As he came in she put down the pot and kissed him.
 ''Isn't the perfume in here deicious?" she exclaimed. T feel as if were eat ing it like an impalpable ice made for the delectation of the gods"
 ''Why did you not go to see Dr. Fleming, as you promised?" Goddard asked, as he stroked her beautiful hair, which hung loose down her back. after the manner she had worn it dur ing her school days.
 "Because he won't be in New York till Thursday" she laughed. "I really feel as if I am going to survive till then. I noticed in the Herald that he has again been delayed a. few days. I assure you I shall go then.''
 They turned and walked from the conservatory into the drawing-room.
 "There is one other matter I have been wanting to speak to you about, dear" he said.
 well, what is it. guardian?" she asked, with a smile.
 Human life is very uncertain, dear,' he said. "The longer I live the more am convinced that we ought to make every preparation for the future. You know you have considerable fortune. in case of your death-and you are as apt to die as 1 or anyone else-in case of your death you ought to leave 8 will. Now, you have an aunt and cousins-"
 Blanche put her white hand over his mouth and looked up into his face gravely.
 >"Dear, dear guardian, what is the matter with you? Why are you con stantly talking about my health, and now it has actually come to uneasi ness about my will. If I should die md anyone-anyone but you should get my money I should not rest iI ay grave. l am thoroughly in ear nest" His features were set with disap l pointment. "But, dear little girl, that is ex sctly what I want to avoid. I mus ,ot-in case of your death, mind, hing as your death-I must not prof y it financially" 1 And why?"
 | Simply because I cannot have i | o. he answered, vaguely. II cannot 1 Iou must make will, Blanche. ant cave your fortune to your aunt ana .ousins."
 'sBut shall never do such an ab

peace of mind and satisfaction depend on t?''
 ''No, not even then, for if I had love and not to you should never be happy again. No, you must not ask that"
 "But-''
 "Please stop, dear: you make me feel so unhappy" Her lower lip was quiv- ering and he saw her eyes fill He drew her into his arms and tried to comfort her. Her agony was too deep for utterance.
 Presently she looked up, and with a hand on each side of his face she gazed at him from her big candid eyes. Her features were set, as if with an unpleasant thought.
 "Don't-don't keep thing from me. darling" she said. using that term of endearment for the first time. Some financial difficulties? If so, use all I have in the world if you wish. would be happy with you on bread and water
 It is not that he declared, breath ing rapidly.
 Well. what is it?''
 Nothing that you can help" he sighed, and he left her where she stood at the window.
 The threat contained in that cabled message from London hung over him like weight suspended by the hand Of destiny. That the woman he had once blindly worshiped would be guilty Of deliberate murder he did not doubt and as the time which Jeanne would take to recross the ocean went by his fears increased until his waking and sleeping thoughts contained but one mental picture, and that was the sud den meeting between the two women and the awful consequences to Blanche In the deadly still hours of night he would wake with a start. ina gining he heard a sound in Blanche's room, and thither he would creep, holding his re volver ready for use, only to be greeted by the sight of his beautiful treasure peacefully asleep in the light of the low burning night lamp. 1 After one of these frights he went back to his chamber, and for the first 1 time for years he knelt and tried tc 1 pray. His prayer was short, but hs repeated it over and over with sup pressed groans.
 "Oh, God, in Thtvast goodness heaI the punishment of the vilest of the damned upon me, but spare her-my child wife. Spare her, oh, God! Lei not the consequence of ny weakness fall on her. This is all I ask, pleading for just punishment for myself, but that she be spared from pain or unhap piness."

THE PEDDLER'SLICENSf
Joe Vondotti Has Seme Idoas Upon
 tho Much Discussed Subject

Joe Nendetti is very much in earucs, about the new peddIers ordinance. h, wants 10 know whether it wiil be e.. forced or whether lt wili be suffered l be unobscrved like some other gu. laws he knows ot He has men vcn4 ing garden truck now and expects e. continue to have under the ncw ora,. oi things lie has money ready ,- pay the license tax and Is wiling tu do SO, but what is bothering Joe is whether the other fellow is gong Co be enforced to pay for the privilege oi selling vegetables about the city or not
 Mir Vendetta claims that there is at least one other peddler operating in the city and that he pays nothing iol SO doing More than this Joe says tue man Is open ID his boast that ae doc. not propose complying with tlc new law-that he wlll continue 10 tu, .g.ug. to hawk his goods without payug ]! cense just as he has in the past H, does not apparently care a snap ot hi. finger ii th ordinance providing tor SIPS per annum for peddlcrs has been ordained and established
 Now this is what is botheging J"t Nendctti II his opponent Is nc. go. new law and will be permitted to ih' his vocation uninterruptedly Joe WI insist upon the same precious privilege being accorded 10 him, for Joe oc' sides being an excellent business man Is good citizen and believes thas ,lC heavy hand of the law should lay ppor an alike. He says ii the other le! low does not take out a license lo' Vendctti will not and he IS puzzled ,ust now to know whether the other icl low is only bluhing and will pay hi' money into the city treasury or wheth CT he will stand pa, on his dec.ara ton.
 Joe is nothing ii he is not emphau and last evening gave vent to som pretty pointed. pungent assertions con corning the city government M language ii quoted literally. would mo look we'll in print for it was ibcralI adorned with superlative adjcctiycs but the substance will be here rcpr duced. The city authorities, he thinl; are pretty lax in the administration d the law and he does not restrict him self to the pcddler's license il sayiu this. He is very general in his aSSer tionS. Many laws are not bcicr on forced although the city-has -Nccitv and Judicial officers for the do oi it.
