CHAPTER TX.

At the moment that 1 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 l
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. 1t was as
astonishing as it was inexplicable.
Good morning. Mr.. Fairfax" he
said, bowling most politely to me as
he spoke. 81 hope you will forgive
this early call. 1 only discovered
your address an hour ago, and, as I
did not wish to run the risk of losing
you. I came on at once"
You appeared to be fairly desir-
Gus of doing so last week." 1 said.
What has occurred to make you
change your mind so suddenly"
"a variety of circumstances have
conspired to bring such a result
about" he answered. 81 have been
thinking the matter over, and not
being able to determine the benefit
of this hOle-and-corner sort of game,
/ have made up my mind to settle it
once and for all"
Il am glad you have come to that
way of thinking" 1 said. ct will
save us both an infnity of trouble.
You understand, of course, that 1 rep
resent Messrs. Kitwater and Codd."
Il am well aware of it." he replied,
"and in common fairness to myself,
I can only say that am sorry to
hear it,
May ask why you are sorry?"
Because you have the honor to
represent the biggest pair of scoun-
drels unhung," he answered. 'And in
saying this 1 pledge you my word
that 1 am by no means Overstepping
the mark. l have known them both
Cor great many years, and can,
therefore, speak from experience"

first time. Let me conduct you to
my dressing-room, where you will
find all that is necessary for your
makeup"
He thereupon showed me to
room leading out of that in which we
had hitherto been sitting. 1t was
very small, and lighted by means of
skylight. Indeed, it was that very
skylight, so he always declared, that
induced him to take the fat.
"If this room looked out over the
back, or front, it would have been
necessary for me either to have cur
tains, which 1 abominate, or to run
the risk of being observed, which
would have been far worse" he had
remarked to me once. Needless to
say there are times when ! find it
most necessary that my preparations
should not be suspected"
Taken altogether, it was a room
that had a strange fascination for
me. l had been in it many times be-
fore, but was always able to discov-
er something new in it. It was a
conglomeration of cupboards and
shelves. a large variety of costumes
hung upon the pegs in the walls,
ranging from soldiers uniforms to
beggar's rags. There were wigs of
all sorts and descriptions on blocks,
pads of every possible order and for
every part of the body, humps for
-hunchbaelss, wooden legs, boots rang
ing from the patent leather of the
dandy to the toeless foOt-cOvering of
the beggar. There were hats in
abundance, from the spotless silk to
the most miserable head coverings,
some of which looked as if they had
been picked up from the rubbish
heap. There were Peddlers' trays fit

was DESTROYS of convincing myself
upon the point.
"You knew them, then, when they
were missionaries in China, I sup
pose?"
That's the first time have ever
heard what they were," he replied.
"Kitwater missionary! You must
forgive my laughing, but the idea is
too ludicrous. I'll admit he's done q
considerable amount of converting,
but 1t has been converting other peo-
pies money into his own pockets"
He laughed at his own bad joke,
and almost instantly grew serious
once more. He was quite at his
ease, and, though he must have
known that 1 was familiar with the
story, or supposed story, of his vii.
lainy, seemed in no way ashamed.
"Now, Mr.. Fairfax" he went on,
81 know that you are surprised to
see me this morning, but 1 don't
think you will be when we have had
little talk together. First and fore
most, you have been told the story
of the stones 1 possess?"
81 have heard Mr. Kitwater's YER
sion of it." I answered, cautiously.
81 know that you robbed my clients
of them and then Disappeared"
4 did not rob them of the Stones"
he said, not in the least offended by
the bluntness of my speech. cit is
plain that you do not know how we
obtained them. Perhaps it's as well
that you should not, for there's more
behind, and you'd go and get them.
No! We obtained them honestly
enough at a certain place, and was
appointed to carry them. For this
reason 1 secured them in a belt
about my waist. That night the Chi
nese came down upon us and made
us prisoners. They murdered our
two native servants, blinded Kit
water, and cut out Codd's tongue. I
alone managed to effect my escape.
Leaving my two companions for
dead, 1 managed to get away into
the jungle. Good heavens! man, you
can't imagine what 1 suffered after
that"
l looked at him and saw that his
face had grown pale at the mere
recollection of his experiences.
