Three days later Simon Snoddy cam.
was an expression of triumph in his face
which thrilled Uncle Owen with hope

"Yes-that isl found the ashen-faced
white-livered devil called Frenchy."
But we want to find Malina."

do you really think he knows%
Yes, of course he does, and we'll make
him squeal."
The two quietly took their departure ths
next morning after an early breakfast.
They made the trip in the four-wheeled
tOpless buggy of the planter, to which
was harnesscd the roam horse.
'DO you think John or Mrs. Redgrave
had ANYTHING to do with this abduction p
asked Simon, as they logged along.
NO, l can't think they did," Uncle
Owen answered. II don't believe they'd d
be so cruel"
Uncle Owen. am afraid you under
estimate their ability for meanness. When
it comes to John Redgrave and his
mother they viii go any length to gain
their ends"
Why should they harm Malina or me?'
asked Uncle Owen innOcently.
Because they are afraid Malina will
marry you. If she does it naturally dis
inlierits them. They expect to be masters
of the Redgrave estates some day."
This thought had come to Uncle Owen
unworthy his consideration. Owen Red
graves greatest weakness was the men,
ory Of his dead brother, which was so
strong as to blind him to the unkindness
and absolute dishonesty of Mrs. Redgrave
and her dissolute son. The subject was
SO disagreeable to him that they dropped
it.
went to the tavern. Simon looked after
the horse while Uncle Owen went direct
ly to the room assigned him. Just as he
entered it, the door Of the apartment
opposite his own opened wide enough for
head to peep out. The first object Red
grave saw was a great mass of coal-black
hair and whiskers framing 4 face white
as death. The white-faced man looked
up and down the hallway and then disap.
peared within the room.
A moment later Simon came. He Is
there" said Uncle Owen, nodding at the
door opposite.
Good; let's call on him."
Simon gave a loud rap on the door;
there was n momentary shufHing. and it
was opened wide enough for an eye to ap-
pear. Pushing the door wide open Simon
stalked into the room.
I'VE want tew talk with you,' he de-
ciared.
Excuse me, gentlemen, but I live very

faced monster with chilly politeness.

chairs about the table and asked them to
be seated.
He was recovering his self-possession,
and smile played upon his face. 1t was
q common saying among the gamblers
Of the Mississippi that La Flores smiles
were signs of danger and La Flores
frowns the harbinger Of safety.
Gentlemen, to what am indebted for
this visit? asked La Flore.

Owen.
"Perchance, Monsieur" La Flore an-
swered. II have travelled some and met
many people whose faces 1 don't remem-

II regret that my face is SO ugly, but

"You are the man who attempted to

lection, and whom thwarted," said Uncle
Owen sternly.
"What right had you to protect her?'
asked La Flore.

said La Flore, still smiling.
''This is the business of every man Of

A look of slight surprise came over that
marble face, but whether it was real or
assumed, neither could determine.

his prominent nose. A well-kept but griz-

face. He had a slight forward sinking

Yet he showed kingly dignity as he drew

overpersuaded that there was some rea!
estate scheme for the acquisition Of the
ground Mt Manassas where the monument
stands, and refused to indorse the recon-
mendation that the Government purchase
it. 1t is now liable to be bought up by
the Southerners to erect monuments to
the troops which fought there. The 7th
Ga. is attempting to purchase the Henry
Farm for the purpose of putting up there
a monument to those OF its members who
fell in the first battle. 1t is not unlikely
that an appeal will be made to the peo-
