 Poor childr' Henry's tone was pitt full. You mean to tell her? At least wait till your wife is returned"
 '"The sooner she hears some things the better for her. She has her share of pride; never fear"
 '"The day I was last here, sir" ob- served Jarrat, "she boasted she would wed him an be were laborer in your fields"
 Aye, maybe, but not if he were a >conspirer against her country. My niece is a daughter of Virginia, sir" And the master of Gladden. Hall noisily took snuff to cover his feelings. Hen rvs face was like a sphinx.
 While they waited came a chatter of hoOfs outside. A moment later the hall door was flung open, and Rashleigh was heard in excited jabbering. The colonel repeated an objurgaHon.
 The next instant he jumped to his feet, and Jarrat started as if at an ap- partition. Armand stood on the thresh- old, mud splashed and pale.
 The newcomers look ignored the cap tain. He bowed to Colonel Til1otson and addressed himself to Henry:
 Monsieur, come to warn you that a detachment of Dunmores men is on its way hither from Yorktown to seize your person."
 "The deuce!' shot out the colonel like a javelin. "I thought the price the earl put on you, Patrick, was but brag. He dares violate my house, then. Mount at once and away by the north road"
 Henry's gaze had seemed to dart and play about the young Frenchman's face like yellow summer lightning. And what would the governor with me this timer"
 ''To transport you to trial for high treason. It was plotted this day aboard the Fowey."
 From which you are escaped?"
 "Yes, monsieur"
 Jarrat's voice entered: '"To attack the residence of a Virginian gentleman without crown warrant is not so ready thing even for royal governor but a man may disappear by night from a lonely road and who to blame? Our fleeing marquis, with his nose for deli cate deceits, is a likely catspaw. T swear such overt folly of Dunmore's $ will yet drive me into Whiggeryv'
 Colonel Tillotson paused in perplex- ity, but Henry looked at the speaker with gaze keen and inscrutable as au

EenTy. Captain, we spoke of a gen tleman as you entered. May | ask what basis you have for your informa- tion?'
 Jarrat took out his pocketbook, drew forth yellow paper and handed it to Henry. 'The Marquis de Ia Trouerie died en route to these colonies and was buried at sea. There is the leaf from the logbook of the Two Sisters recount Ing the unhappy incident. The news of his death was suppressed in British interests"
 And the secretary?" Henry's voice was calm.
 "The incident is now closed, gentle men, and I violate no confidence. He was bought by. the earl-for services"
 My Godv ejaculated Colonel Tillot son. Are we never to know truth in this world? He was not an inpostor and charlatan. No. He was a Brit ish spy!"
 "Why, then," interrogated Henry, did Dunmore expose him?'
 ''1 exposed him.
 ''Youw the colonel cried.
 "I had crossed on the same ship and recognized him at Williamsburg. Dis covering the true state of affairs, can you wonder, Colonel Tillotsen, at my concern for the intimacy which I saw growing between your niece and this person? I think" he said, masking a glowworm gleam in his eyes, ''that my feeling for Mistress Tillotson is not mis- understood by you. I knew Lord Dun more's plan, and I could not openly teA you the truth. Is it wonder I forgot that was kings man? I did the one thing left to me. 1 set afoat such sus- picions that the governor, to save his own repute with Williamsburg, was compelled to sacrifice his minion, to him. self expose the imposture and to cry himself also deceived. I tell you thus much in confidence. Believe me, sir, l steered the best I knew between the hurt of 8 lady whom I honor and the governors displeasure. It was the Scylla of duty and the Charybdis of love. Colonel, I love your niece, and I would not see her suffer humiliation"
 Colonel Tillotson rose and paced up and down the floor, plucking at the side curls of his wig.
 And if what you tell us is true," he said, meditating, q have done you wrong. I am not overland to your col ors, but have respect for honest loy- atty. God knows 'tis scarce enough. Mayhap I have been unjust. Will you be seatedT'
 Jarrat sat down, his watchful eyes turning about the room, something strangely like expectancy in them.
 The colonel rang for his major domo.
 "Rashleigh," said he soberly, task your Mis- Anne to come to the library. k6and admit no one-no one. Do you

 You have no time to spare, mon- sieur. They were to leave the Fowey at sundown. I implore you to haste"
 "As we'll" cautioned Jarrat, ito go by another way than the marquis antici- pates.''
 ''You Harp said Armand, flaming on him. "This man was in the plot. He waits the troops here at this moment. Monsieur, I beseech"-
 He did not finish, stricken dumb by the entrance of Anne. She had caught her breath at sight of him and stood, statue-like, in the candlelight. Then she held out both arms and ran toward him with q glad cry:
 "Louis! They have released you! Oh, thank God; thank God!'
 The young man did not speak; only a little spasm wrenched his features. But Jarrat did. ''The jailbird was slip pery, mistress, he sneered.
 The colonel, who had reached her in stride and pulled her back, dropped her arm at the look of offense and scorn she cast upon the speaker. Anne" he said, facing her rigidly. ''listen to me! This man is not only no nobleman"-

But on the boat he was surrounded by friends, and he re- f1ected he might have to make an en- barrassing explanation if he threw .ne bundle overheard. An ash barrel In New York will doo," he thought. But, on reaching Manhattan, he found it hard to carry out his plan.
 'I'll throw it overheard on the way home," said he. But on that trip he met more acquain.ances, and as a re- suit the cat still was with him when he boarded the train. He laid the package down beside him and tried to become absorbed in his paper, but the cat haunted him. When he reached his station he picked up the package and went home.

 "Let the drab go,' he said sullenly, "and bring along the other.''
 They mounted, a trooper hitching brides with Armands horse and as Jarrat gave the word they moved off in twos down the dark drive. The light from the open door fell on the trampled shrubbery, the glossy spattered skins of the horses and on Armand's back ward turned face.

CHANGED INTO MUTTON.
Strange Adventures of a Man Who Starts Out to Lose the Body of
 Cat He Had Killed.

Snealing by the friends he met In the streets. with guilty feeling that they might guess the package he car ried contained dead tomcat. a certain East Orange (N. J.) man was amazed when he reached his home to find that the cat wasn't a cat at all. but a fine leg of mutton. This man had heard about cat being served under other names in 35-cent table d'hote restau- rants in New York city, but the re- versal of that dinner custom puzzled him for time.
 He is in business in New York and is a pigeon fancier. Recently vagrant cats have been killing his pigeons, so he lay in ambush with a gun and shot one of the four-footed bird fanciers. He started to bury the dead cat in his back yard; then thought prying neigh bors might think he was hiding a murder.

 ''B. FRANKLIN. Patrick Henry, Esq, Williamsburg.
 Henry read slowly, without pause, while the others eyes did not leave his face. When he had finished he looked up with an expression of mingled sat isfaction and puzzlement.
 Marquis de Ia Trouerie!' Colonel Til lotson exclaimed. "Armand's master, then, was the messenger of France! And he is doubtless in Virginia now. But how dares the secretary pose as his master2"
 Because the marquis is dead!' fell a heavy voice behind them. The host got up frowning. Captain Jarrat," said he brusquely, 'I like not well these soft footed intru- sions. Nor, if I may say it, do I like the dress you wear. Times are come when I no longer welcome a coat of that color in my house."
 A smoldering red rose to Jarrat's cheek, but he spoke evenly. q should beg pardon, colonel, for an uncere- monious intrusion into a converse ton. Rashleigh let me in.'
 Curse Rashleigh!" said the colonel unmistakably.
