ing-place as Hayle's prisoner. To say
that was mortified by the advantage
he had obtained over me would not ex-
press my feelings in the least. TO
think that !, George Fairfax, who had
the reputation of being SO difficult
man to trick, should have allowed N.Y.
self to fall into SO palpable q trap,
seemed sufficiently incredible as to be
almost . matter for laughter rather
than rage. There was worse, how
ever. behind. Miss Kitwater had been
90 trustful Of my capability for bring
ing the matter to Successful conclu.
sion, that I dared not imagine what
she would think of me now. Which.
ever way looked at it, it was OBJ
vfous that Hayle must score. On thu
one side, he kept me locked up while
he not only made his escape from
Paris, but BY 90 doing cut OF every
chance Of my pursuing him after
wards: on the other, he;might consols
himself with. the almost certain
knowledge that I should be discredited
by those who had put their trust in
me. How could It very well be other
wise? I had committed the criminal
folly Of accepting hospitality from the
enemy, and from that moment should
not be seen. The natural supposition
would be that had been bought, and
that was not only taking no further
interest in the case, but that I was
Keeping out of the way of those who
did. 10 add to my misery, could cas-
lily imagine the laugh that would go
up on the: other side of the channel
when the trick that had been played
upon me became known. But having
so much else to think of, that fact,
you may be sure, did not trouble mo
very much. There were two things,
however. about which I was particu-s
larry anxious; one was to set myself
right with Miss Kitwater, and the
Other 49, TO get even, at any cost

The Parifian cabby IS very like. his
London brother."
He then proceeded to describe to
me an exceedingly funny adventure
that had befallen him once in Chi
cago. The recital lasted some min
utes, and all the time we were still
pursuing our way in asdirection ex-
actly opposite to that which knew
We should be following. At last =
could stand it no longer.
"The mans obviously an idiot"
said, land am going to tell him so. =
< IT shouldn't do that, Mr.. Fairfax"
said Hayle, in q different voice to that
which he had previously addressed
me. II had my own reasons for not
telling you before, but the matter has
already been arranged. The man is
only carrying out my Instructions. "7e
''What do you mean by already ar
ranged?" I asked, not without some
alarm.
II mean that you are my prisoner,
Mr.. Fairfax" he said. "You see, you
are rather difficult person to deal
with, If I may pay you such com.
pliment, and one has to adopt heroic
measures in order to cope with you"
''Then you have been humbugging
me ell this time," cried; 'but you've
let the cat out of the bag little too
soon. think I'll bid you good-by.".
I was about to rise from my seat
and open the door, but he stopped me.
In his hand he held a revolver, the mug
zle of which was in unpleasant proxim-
ity to my head.
II must ask you to be good enough
to sit down." he said. "You had bet
ter do so, for you cannot help your
self. If you attempt to make a fuss

CHAPTER TX.

At the moment that I saw .Hayle
enter my room, you might, as the
saying goes, have knocked me down
with a feather. OF all that could
possibly have happened, this was
surely the most unexpected! The
man had endeavored to get me out
of his way in London, he had played
all sorts of tricks upon me in order
to put me off the scent, he had bolt
ed from England because he knew
was searching for him, yet here he
was deliberately seeking me out, and
of his own free will putting his head
into the lions mouth. It was as
astonishing as it was inexplicable.
"Good morning. Mr.. Fairfax" he
said, bowling most politely to me as
he spoke. II hope you will forgive
this early call. only discovered
your address an hour ago, and, as I
did not wish to run the risk of losing
you. came on at once"

Gus of doing so last week." I said.

"A variety Of circumstances have
conspired, to bring such q result

Fatal Result of Children Playing With
Fire.
The seven-year-old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Ed Long, living near Col
umbia Falls, died at her home last
Thursday of burns received while
playing with fire about a week ago.
Mr.. Long was absent from home at
the time, and while Mrs. Long was
lying down, the little girl and her
brother few years older came into
possession of some matches and
started bonfire in wagon box.
In some manner the little girls
clothes came in contact with the fire
and she was soon wrapped in sheet
of flame. The little boy bravely tried
to rescue his sister, and tore the
clothes from her back, but to no
avail, and before the flames could be
subdued she received burns from
which she died after lingering a
week.
