from the officer. He did not perceive

opening session of the court. General
Beauregard was remarkable for his
promptness and. celebrity, and he had
declared that the young man
should be- tried Immediately. He had
delay. But no stern featured, dignifed
officer presented himself, instead Of
which Sempland's astonished gaze fell
upon the small figure of a woman!
The door was instantly closed and
locked behind her without a word of
explanation from those outside, and
for the second time In twenty-four
hours There was difference in the
situation that morning, altho the man
did not know it. On this occasion
Fanny Glen was a prisoner as we'll as
he.
He could not see her face as her
veil still remained down, yet there was
no mistaking her form. Indeed he
would have recognized her presence.
His heart leaped within his breast at
the sight of her. He thought it beat
so she might almost have heard it in
the perfect silence that had fallen be-
tween them. His first impulse was to
run toward her and take her in his
troubled conclusions of the night be-
fore the recollection of that instant
when he had held her so closely still
remained dominant In her presence
he almost forgot everything but that.
Yet he looked at her impassively for
a moment, bowed slightly, then turned
and walked deliberately to the other
end of the room, resuming his station
at the window looking to sea-
She had an excellent view of his
back. The beating Of his heart did
not manifest itself outwardly after all.
To her gaze he appeared as impassive,
as quiet, as motionless. as If he had
been cut out Of iron like the grated
bars. 1t was a most unsatisfactory
beginning to what must prove an i'm
portant interview. They played at
cross purposes indeed. He had sac
rificed himself to save her, she had
sacrificed herself to save him, and here
they were both prisoners apparently
and things were as unsettled as ever!
Poor Fanny Glen was infinitely more
surprised at the sight of her lover
than he had been at the sight Of her.
Not until she had fairly entered the

true value not only her heinous con-
duct, but her criminal neglect as we'll.
He would make her understand that
it was not love for her that kept him
silent. Oh, no! Simply the obliga-
ton of gentleman, man of honor,
albeit a Quixotic one. Oh, noble res
olution! He would go to his grave
silent, loading upon her the weight of
an obligation, from which she should
never escape. When the war was over

Wabash whom she had been SO anx-
ious to save that she had pretended
love for him -Sempland! Yes. he

Hours passed, but their case was
not called, and one of the litigants,
with his lawyer, went out for refresh
ments. Both are good bowlers and
had agreed to roll a game in the adj
Joining alleys, when the plaintiff in
the suit appeared with proposal to
settle the claim there instead of in
court. The challenge was quickly ac-
cepted, and, while the lawyers kept

strikes. The plaintiff won.
Then; they went back to: the court

Some of this had come to him. last

that it was not so much his own i'm
pending fate as it was the hopeless
endeavor to discover the real reason
for Fanny Glen's conduct which en-
crossed his attention that Hateful
morning.
He had failed rniserably, officially
and personally. He decided, against
heart and hope at last, that he had
made no progress in his love affair.
The woman he adored had given him
convincing proof-so he argued, re-
gbeMous against the conclusion to the
1ast-that his professional future was
a matter of Indifference to her; nay,
that his, very life was a. thing she
would ieopardizez or even forfeit light

Sempland envied him his rest, with
his brave companions in arms in the
desperate sea venture, beneath the
COOL, green waters Of the ocean that
laved their beloved shore.
. Well. there was use In worrying
or specializing any longer. It would
all be over soon now. He was suffice
ient1y experienced. as a soldier to
know what would happen to him.
There was only one possible verdict,
only one punishment for the crimes
with which he was charged. IT,. or
better, when he was sentenced to
death. his friends would undonbte dly

in his own mind firmly to discourage
such efforts. He took gloomy view
of life and of love and of women

heart or youth There was nothing
now, therefore, for which he cared to
live.
Yet If he could only see Fanny Glen
again! Why did she not send some
one to inquire as to his swhereabout !?
At least to ask after his welfare. She
must know he was under arrest Why
could she not come herself? He was

she was not alone, and that he was
there. She stood rooted to the spot,
waiting tousees what he would do Had
he followed his first impulse, which
would have been to sweep her to- his
breast, he. would have found her unre-
sisting, submissive, acquiescent. The
kiss which had been given her. last
night still trembled upon her lips. 1t
was for the taking, she was his for
the asking.
Yet his first movement save for that
cold, perfunctory salutation, had been
one of Indifference amounting to con-
tempt. He despised her. then; he
hated her. She had brought him to a.
terrible position. All, we'll, he would
be sorry for her when he learned her
reason, and he would be more sorry
for his treatment of her when he
