CHAPTER X. THE RUSE

Jane was frantic. Less than an hour! What could she do?
 She and Bessemer had been an un- pardonab1e length of time away from their guests, and the major portion of them were only awaiting their ap- pearance to make adieus. Many precious minutes were wasted in listening to good-byes and the usual compliments upon the evening. At length, however, she shook herself free and turned in search of her brother. She found him draping Mistress Peggy winston's shawl about her shoulders and tying her hood be- meath her chin preparatory to de- departure With hurried word of apology, she drew him aside and ac- quainted him with Godfrey's impend- ing fate.
 "Oh Edward" she cried, cannot you do something to gain him at least a reprieve?"
 Her brothers brow contracted, and he gazed at her suspiciously. May,

which she urged haste.
 Without word of explanation or apology, he began in the most high of his coat and thrust the British hat, and coat upon him.
 "The brooches will do,' he said: "they will not be noticed in the dim light, and with Bessemer's order in your hand you are likely to be passed without too much inspection. At any rate, there is no time to change"
 He pushed the general towards the head of the stairs, and the old man, utterly bewildered, was passive in his grasp. Then suddenly rousing himself, he threw off the compelling hands and faced the younger man in a fury. @
 Why, why, boy, you fool, you, do you think I'm going to escape in clothes provided for you?"
 General, listen to me. You know that I am taller than any man in Bessemer's troop. If I attempt to go, shall be stopped, and it will not only mean death for both of us, but compromise for Miss Ellery and possibly death for Gabriel here as well. If you maEe the attempt, you have every prospect of success and can then gather some of our brave fellows to come here and rescue me before sunrise, the hour which we were told Bessemer had fixed for our execution"
 As he finished speaking Worthing- ton stepped back into the room they had formerly occupied, and closing the door, drew heavy chest across

 The old man perceived with rising choler the ruse the younger had em- ployed. By imprisoning himself thus in the room he cut off the others arguments and made it imperative for him to go or for both to be left to their fate.
 Gabriel, liking the change of plan nc better than the general, never theless hurried him forward. If Massa Godfrey won't go, an you is, you bettah hurry, sah.

 Nothing short of money will re- store them to anything like fair condition. The young woman is wealthy and the young man is poor. If the court listens to his woeful tale he will separate the young woman from some of her gold and teach her not to play with the love of helpless youth.
 Coleridge Benjamin, of New York, 4s the youth with the wounded heart. Miss Olivia Waller is the alleged cruel and heartless deceiver. There is also another young man in the case. He wears silk hat, but his name has not been discovered by the boy with the wounded heart.

 You are splendid. you are glory, you are

 And if that does not suffice, here are some passages from her letters:
 "Oh, what joy, what comfort, what inexpressible pleasure. To describe 1t would take all my lifetime" You know love you and esteem your love higher than rubies."' 'sGold could not buy it." "I don't suppose there are two other lovers in the world that see as little of each other as we do.'
 The last sentence has proved true, and Benjamin does not like to be treated in that way. The only thing he thinks will restore the hap piness he once enjoyed is for her to open her purse and pour her gold in- to the hands that once fond1y ca- ressed her.
 Benjamin says it was in the merry month of May, 1897, that he met the fair Olivia, and for two long years they loved as only lovers can" When she came from the country last fall, he says, she acted strangely, and told him he could not call so cften at her home. He watched and wait- ed, and then he discovered the req son. It was a young man who wore silk hat.

What did she say to that? She recited piece of poetry which I shall always re- member. It was like this:
 When sitting all alone,
 Reflecting on the past,
 Remember you are friend
 That will forever last z

"THE BURGLAR

Augustus Thomas's well known com edy drama, "The Burglar is being presented at Polls this afternoon. and will be presented this evening. The play tells unique story and is one of absorbing interest throughout. The hour is after midnight, when, in the most fashionable quarter of the city. the sumptuous home of one of the best known editors has been forcibly en- tered by burglar. The inmates peace. fully sIumber, unconscious of danger, all but little tot of six years, whose acute ears have discerned noise un- usual at that time of, the night. Too innocent to be conscious of danger she leaves her room, and entering the fam fly sitting room, suddenly confronts the burglar, who noiselessly as possible is securing the family silver, when, to his surprise, he becomes conscious of the little ones presence. With pistol in hand. approaching the child and alert for an outcry, his surprised ears are greeted with the exclamation: "nonst be afraid MT Burglar, I won't hurt you!' Following this is one of the most effective scenes ever present ed on the stage. Prices are popular.
