| she had seen notice to the effect that
the steamer CombrOa would leave for
South American ports at one o'clock
Wednesday morning. Almost instant
ly had arisen the idea that Robert
Davis would take passage on that boat.
The day wore on. Eleanor had din
ner at an obscure country inn, and by
seven was within twelve miles of New
York. But it was a weary girl that
drew rein at a pleasant farmhouse on
the main road. A motherly woman
came to the door, and no welcome was
ever more cordial than hers as she
drew the exhausted girl inside. There
is nothing like rural hospitality. BY
eight o'clock Eleanor was asleep, and
Wildfire had been rubbed down and
was enjoying his supper.
A quarter of eleven Eleanor awoke
with start, dressed quickly and stole
out to the kitchen. There, with her
head on the table, the farmers wife
slept peacefully, while boy dozed by
the fire. Eleanor turned the knob, and
as she did so, the boy opened his eyes
and looked at the clock. In few min
utes Wildfire was at the door, and the
girl was in the saddle. A hurried good
bye and she was gone, and something
bright shone in the boys hand as he
stood in the moonlight.
Just an hour and forty minutes later,
the officer patrolling the docks Of the
steamship company was startled by
the touch of woman's hand on his
arm, and still more surprised when
she requested him to accompany her
ON board the Combroa in search Of a
thief. He led the way on board the
steamer. They searched through the
staterooms until, as she was almost
ready to give up in despair, the officer
opened the door of the last room.
Eleanor looked in, recognized her man
in spite of his changed appearance,
and turning to the officer said:
Search that man. He has FIVE hun
dred thousand dollars in United States
bonds belonging to the National Bank
of Glenwood."
f-oDert DAVIS sprang forward, taken
off his guard by the voice of Arson
Aliens ward. Then, as he saw her
companion, he stopped, realizing thu
futility of resistance. Turning to his
suit case he took out q tin box and
handed it to the girl who had braved
so much for it's recovery. Then he
stood awaiting his sentence. Time was
flying. Eleanor looked searchingly at
the selfconvicted man and then said,
as IL satisfied with her scrutiny: "Mr.
Davis, cannot send you back to your
wife and children, an outlaw. Your
passage is undoubtedly paid in ad-
vance. Go-and when you reach your
destination, let me know and I will
telegraph sufficient funds to enable
you to start anew, If you will" Then,
before Davis had time to speak, she
slipped sway and stood on the dock

begged him to go there to see the
beautiful women. but unfortunately
he was on duty and could not spare
the time. The valley is full of legends
and superstitions, one of which is that
certain stones to be seen beneath the
waters of the lakes were at one time
men. who for their evil deeds were
condemned to die as rocks beneath the
clear water until the lakes dried up.
One is often shown the 'stone men,"
large rocks to our western eyes. An
other legend is of siren living on the
border of the Dial Lake, who sings en-

The morning air rang with the shrill
cries Of the newsboys. Men bought a
paper. glanced at the headlines, and
understood the half incoherent words
Banks doors closed! All bout Davis
de embez-ler!"
In the library of an uptown resi-,
dence, two men were standing by the
fire, talking in hurried tones. The
younger of the two had just come In
and stood, hat in hand. ready to de-
part. The other shook his head as he
said: cts no use, Malcolm. We
might have tracked the scoundrel If
the papers had kept out OF it. Now
our every action will be public prop
erty."
"Well." the young man replied, "the
outlook is rather discouraging, l adj
NIT, but we are not yet at the end OF
our resources. l have wired Ross and
expect him on the 10:40. If you APP
prove, will go down and get list OF

The father acquiesced, reassured for
the moment by the enthusiasm Of the
younger man, Malcolm went out, turn
ing to say as he ran down the steps, II
would not leave the house to-day,
father. If we can stave 1t off day or
Two, we may avert panic altogether"
Arson Allen went back into the
library. The events of the past
twenty-four hours had almost un-
nerved him. He saw but one way to
retrieve his fortune, and that a way
hardly acknowledged to himself. If he
could only be sure about Malcolm and
Mollie Payton. But then. there was
Eleanor. Since the day he took the
girl of fifteen from her dead fathers
bedside, Eleanor Howard had been as
his own daughter, and her little for
tune grew under his able supervision.
Now that was gone, and he groaned in
misery.
He was not aware Of her presence
in the library until she touched his
shoulder; then, he looked up, resolved
to keep the truth from her day or
two at least. But not so. Eleanor's
hand still rested on his shoulder, but
her eyes were taking in every word of
the staring headlines which had made
that mornings issue Of the Standard
a memorable one. In that swift read
ing, everything stood revealed except
her share in the disaster, and even
after her guardian told her that her
loss was even greater than his own.
she seemed unable to realize its effect
upon anyone but Malcolm.
Mr.. Allen carefully explained the sit
uation-from the investing OF all
the available assets in United States
sAecurities, to the loss of those securi-
ties the night before. "And now. little
one" he resumed, there is little we
can save from the wrecl: If there is
