Both blue eyes were now shrouded

Edna glanced at the stage manager.
His back was turned The audience
saw the captive roll over, apparently
to ease her strained position, but to
the man beneath the trap the move
had different meaning. He stood on
tiptoe, and for one brief instant their
lips met in kiss of reconciliation.
Il will leave the ring for Ashton to

and the trap was closed. Two minutes
later Truscott was on the stage.

The New York-Boston game was re-
sponsible for the quarrel.
Alice Everton, the soubrette of the
"Star Of the Desert company was an
enthusiastic "fan" and would have
staked the last cent Of her salary on
the result of the game. Hugh Trus-
colt, business manager Of the compa-
ny, accommodated the young woman
to the extent of small wager and,
losing, paid the price, two pound box
OF bonbons, without murmur. Edna
Brink, the leading lady, who was Trus-
colts fiancee, was not interested in
baseball and resented the presence on
Miss Everton's dressing table of any
thing sent by her intended.
Without stopping to inquire the mo-
tive Of the gift she returned Truscott
his ring with the following note:
My Dear Mr.. Truscott-Since you find 1t
necessary to make gifts to Miss Everton
may l suggest that the inclosed may
prove useful? 1t Is valueless to me- You
need attempt no specious explanations.
will read no letter you may send. nor Will
listen to you should you be insolent
enough to engage me in conversation.
EDNA BRINK.
For three days Truscott had made
every effort to explain the affair and
renew his happy relations with the girl
whom he really loved with the stron-
gest emotion of his life, but he had
failed ANONYMOUSLY. And now he
stood lingering a telegram from the
New York hacker of the company or
dering him to report to the metropoli-
tan office for the purpose of organic
Ing a No. 2 company. He had twenty
minutes to effect reconciliation with
Edna, and he knew that If he left the
company without making his peace
he need have no hope.
He rushed back on the stage, deter
mined to speak with her at any cost
The curtain had just risen on the third
act, showing the encampment of desert
robbers. Miss Brink, as their captive,
lay at the rear of the stage. For the
climax OF the act the comedian would
cut her letters, and after a stirring
scene they would fight their way to
liberty. But In the meantime she must |

gagement. He was sympathetic, but
not resourceful. f'ts nv
Cant l go on as an Arab and get
speech with her?' pleaded Truscott.
And break up the scene? Not on
your life. Look out, there's my cuev'
And away hurried Ashton.
Truscott groaned. Three minutes of
the precious twenty had already been
wasted. A stage hand, seeing the trou-
bled look, asked il there was ANYTHING
he could do. Truscott grasped at this
straw of hope.
II want to speak Immediately with
Miss Brink. Can you figure out any
Way?"
The stage hand shook his head, then
suddenly grinned.
Come on and he drew Truscott
down the dark stairway leading under
the stage. Presently they paused d.
fectiy under the center OF the stage.
Iruscott could hear the scuffling of
the stage robbers steps overhead. The
stage hand was pushing small table
forward and studying the beams above
him.

The stage hand slipped away, finger
Ing crisp bill. Very gently Truscott
mounted the rickety table and lowered
the trapdoor. Edna turned slightly at
the sound, and her eyes expressed
great displeasure as they met his
pleading gaze. More than this she
could not do, She faced the audience.
