 off seeking a bride with ready capi-
 tai among his fellow workers In the
 philanthropic field.
 Meantime Franklin Blake roamed around the East, dreaming of Rachel
 in the tents of the Bedouins and sitting amid the ruins of Karnak to wonder
 what in the name of reason had made
 her treat him as she did. Finally ne
 received news of the death of his Ka-
 ther, and his solicitor wrote that his
 presence in England was demanded for
 the settlement of the great estate which had fallen to him.
 No sooner did Franklin see again the
 ''white cliffs of Albion" than his whole
 heaft IeapAd with the thought of Ra-
 cheI, and he became determined to
 come to an understanding with her at
 all hazards. At first he hoped that time had made her more reasonable. In this surmise
 be found he was mistaken. But time had made Blake more determined. Thus he did see her at last and alone. He
 appealed to her by the memory of the love she once had confessed for him. 1 in the name of reason and in tho narna of justice to clear away the clouds that had come between them. At first Rachel was apparently melt ed. But suddenly, turning on the young man. she said with flashing eyes: ''You coward! You thief! I, with my own eyes, saw you enter my sitting room and take the Moonstone from the
 cabinet and go away with 1t. Leave mep'
 Blake gazed at the girl in dumb | amazement and left her presence with 1 out a word. His brain reeled. Had the accursed Moonstone indeed bewitched l everybody? That night, after several pipes of tobacco. he came to this con- | cIusion: At Lady Verinder's place in Yorkshire this mystery had begun. He | would go down to the place of the be-
 ginning, and, starting all over again, | try to find some clue by which 10 un- ! ravel the tangled skein. F Blake engaged board at a farm house near the Verinder place. He strclled | over to the old place and had chat wirh old Betteredge, the steward, who | still guarded the deserted house. "By the way" said Betteredge, when l they had talked for some time, do | you remember a maid who was here at | the time of the Moonstone affair, one Rosanna Spearman2 She was poor, | nlatn-looking creature. My lady, out | of charity, took her from some penal l institution"
 Franklin faintly remembered her. well" continued Bctteredge, "she | committed suicide just after you left 1 by throwing herself into the quag- l nire we call the Shivering Sands down | on the beach there"
 "What did she do that for?" asked | Blake innocently.
 "'well, therss some as thinks she 1 had a reason. She was nervous, hys- i terical girl" replied the old man, giv- ! ing Blake a curious look "At any | rate" he added, 'she left a letter ad-
 dressed to you with instructions that | 1t was not to be sent to you but must | he placed in your own hands the first l time you came down this way.

some evil mistake and he felt that If
 she were less naughty and self willed--
 if she would only be frank with him
 and tell all she knew or suspected the mystery might easily be solved. Therefore it was with feeling of
 anger as well as the grief of the be-
 reaved lover that he set out for an
 indefinite period of travel If Rachel
 could forget he would try to do the
 game.
 Tho Indian jugglers were discharged,
 but before they were released there
 came to them letter, written in the
 Indian dialect. The letter was open-
 ed by the taller and read by Mir.
 Murthwaite before being delivered It
 ran: "In the name of the regent of
 the night, whose seat Is on the ante-
 lope. whose arms embrace the four
 corners of the earth, brothers, turn
 your faces to the south and come to
 me fin the street of many noises which
 leads down to the muddy river. The
 reason Is this. Mine own eyes have
 seen it."
 Soon after the departure of the In- dians from FrizInghall MT. Lulxer a well known money lender of London. complained to a magistrate that he
 had had occasion to discharge an em- pIoye, a foreigner of some sort. for attempted theft and that band of
 Indian jugglers constantly loitered about his place. apparently with a sim fster design. A little later the news papers had 8 sensation. MT. Godfrey Abelwhite and Mir. Luker were each assaulted and searched in an identical manner by three Indians. From God frey Abelwhite nothing was stolen but from Luker was taken a paper
 which was a duplicate of a receipt he had given for what he described as a "rare Eastern gem" In court Mir. Lux CT refused to say from whom he had received the gem, but he declared that 1t was deposited with his bankers. The story of the Moonstone was now
 revived in the press; but Mir. Lulker de- clared that he had never even heard hint about Godfrey Abe1white. But
 Rachel made a written statement that
 to her certain knowledge Godfrey was
 not the stealer of the diamonA
 Shortly afterward Godfrey again pro l posed marriage to Rachel. He was accepted. The wedding date was fixed |; | but 1t was not to be.

Bruff, who ok a fatherly interest in all that | pertained to Rachel, learned that God | frey Abelwhite had sent to Doctors l Commons for copy of Lady Verinder's will as soon as that document had been l probated.
 He suspected ,AbeIwhite of purely l mercenary motives in seeking Rachel | in marriage. If he was right in his suspicious, he concluded that the fact | that Rachel had only a life interest | in her mothers estate would cool the | ardor of the lovcB, especially if, as MT. Bruff suspected. Godfrey had hid- | den debts of pressing nature.
 The solicitor had a talk with Ra- chel, who said that she had only ac- 1 cepted Godfrey in a fit of despair; that | she did not love him, and that "in spite | of everything" her heart was still !

 Franklin Blake before she went? Not
 on any account.
 At once Sergeant Cuff began to form new theory. He had investigated the dofngs of the Indians held in detention
 at Frizinghall and was convinced that
 they had not been near Lady Xerinder's
 atfer they had given their perform
 ances in the late afternoon. They had perfect alibi. But somebody must have stolen the diamond. Inspiration --it was Rachel herselfl She had stolen her own gem. Had not she
 alone of all the people in the house
 refused to have her wardrobe exam ined.
 In the full and long experieHce of
 Sergeant Cuff he had met many young
 ladies outwardly as correct as Miss Verinder who had little debts of their
 own that they did not wish their fami- lies to discover. Rachel had stolen
 the diamond and had either sent 1t to
 London by some trusty messenger or she would take 1t there herself. The gem would turn up in possession of
 some London jeweler, and if this fla natic story about it being the Moon
 stone were true, and not something in- vented to give an additional value to
 the stone. the Indians would be found
 hanging around the place of it's depos-
 it-for even Cuff had begun to come
 to believe that though the Orientals had not stolen the diamond htey wanted to and had strange ways of knowing where to look for 1t. ..
 The great detective unfolded his theory to Lady Verinder. begging her

 and herself. No furtheE explanation

 Lady Verinder began to conjecture now that her daughters mind was af- l feeted. She consulted a doctor and | at his advice went with her to LoRdon | in the hope that the diversions of so- ciety might restore her to her normal

at the body from which the disguise had been removed. he started back with an exclamation. The murdered man was Godfrey Abelwhite!
 On the table by the side of the dead man was an empty box. It had once contained the Moonstone. Franklin knew. for in that box 1t had been car- ried when he took 1t from the bank and carried 1t to Rachel. The Moon God claims his own," said Blake, as he and Bruff left the place together.
 'Yes." replied Bruff. land one of tn ose East Indians followed him to this place. The appointed of vishnu work in London lodging houses. But we will see what Scotland Yard can do against him who sitteth on the Ante- lope."
 Scotland Yard could do nothing. The Indians were traced to India and there disappeared. But as for the other part of the story. which more particularly pertained to England and the century MT. Bruff found way of forcing MT. Luker to tell what he knew about the Moonstone Godfrey Abelwhite had pledged the gem with Luker. Luker, like a foxey man, had forced Godfrey to tell a true story before he would advance the money
 The pious Abeiwhite had been iiv- ing double life. He had used funds belonging to an estate of which ha was trustee. When he went te Lady verinder's to attend the birthday din- ner he was facing an accounting. By accident he had seen Franklin Blake leave his room while in the faudanum trance and had foiiowed him. When Blake returned to his room Godfrey Moonstone in Godfrey's hands. saying in dreamy voice. s'TaIxef it back to your fathers bank, Godfrey. 1t Is safer there." Then he had fallen on his bed in a stupor."
 Godfrey knew that pr. Candy had administered laudanum to Franklin, and he suspected the truth. Next morning when Blake had no recoilec- ton of the events of the night. Godfrey yielded to temptation, took the diamond to London and pawned it with Luker. A legacy which he had received during the year enabled him to redeem the gem at the appointed time. and he was on his way to Amsterdam to have t cut up when he was murdered. Frank lin and Rachel were. of course. mar ried and lived happy ever after.
 Subsequent to their wedding thers came . letter from Mir. Murthwafke. who was again in India. He had de- viated from his route, he aaid, to viait the ruined city of Somnauth. To his surprise he found thousands of Indians assembled there for a feast of restor- ation. On a roayk platform. high on tho mounthinside. was great statue of the Moon-God. Before the idol bowed three men whom he had last seen posing as juREiers at Frizinghall; and gleaming and glowing in the idoI's forehead was the yellow diamond whose | aplendor had last shone upon him in England from the bosom of a woman's dress.
