We'll, it was seven years ago that
he married. His wife was much
younger than he-a lovely girl, and
her parents were rich. How he got
her do not see. 1t was his gift of the
tongue, | suppose, for he could talk
well. She was not happy with him,
but was better contented when, two
years later, her boy came. Last year
Mrs. Lanes father died, and she came
in under the will for more than 81 ,000,-
900 worth of property. Then Mr. Lane
changed his habits. He became most
attentive to his wife He looked to
her wants, and appeared to the world
as a model husband. But more was
going on than we knew. From the
little she told me, from the hints she
dropped, she must have looked upon
him with dread She failed rapidly in
health, and six months ago she died"
Murdered" | asked.

Mrs. Knapp. But there was no evil
dence-not a particle. | tried to find
it, but it was beyond the power of the
doctors to discover"
And his mOtive?'
He thought he was heir TO her for
tune. When he found that she had
left it with Mr.. Knapp and me, in
trust for the boy, his rage was fright
ful to see. Before he had time to put
any Of his wicked thoughts into action

that there l could keep him in safety.
Mr.. Knapp pooh-poohed my fears, and,
when Mr.. Lane made a demand for
the child, was in favor OF giving him
W. The father is the one to care
for the boy he said, and washed his
hands of the whole matter"
Then Mr.. Knapp had nothing to do
with the affair, one way or the other?"

'Mr. Lane" she continued, threat
ened legal proceedings. But, knowing
his own past and knowing that knew
something of 1t, too. he dared not be-
gin them. Mr.. Knapp's feelings in the
matter had made me unwilling to keep
the boy in my house, but at first
thought il the best way of protecting
him. and had him with me-. Then one
night the house was broken into and
two men were discovered In the room
where the boy usually slept | had
taken him to my own bed that night,
for he was aiiing, and SO he escaped.
The alarm was raised before they
found him, and the men fed. Mr..
Knapp was confident that they were
ordinary house-brealers, but l knew
better. dared keep the boy there no
longer, and called Henry Wilton to as.
sist me in making him safe. He found
suitable house for the boy and hired
men to guard it. But after one ex.
perience in which the place was at.

Henry thought 1t better TO hide the
boy and watch the enemy. The rest

East African Religious ceremvn,

Recently a strange ceremony was
performed at Changamwe, East Afri-
ca, to bring rain. A house-to-house
visit was made among the natives by
a seIf-appointed committee who COL
lected from each hut the sum Of two
ahnas. With the total thus collected
an OK was ptrchased. A procession
was then formed. In which all the
available children took part. After
the procession had proceeded around
the district for period Of two hours.
the OK was sacrificed. prayers from
the Koran being sang by the children.
The meat of the OK was then boiled
In pots by adult participators and
given to the children to eat until the
whole was consumed. The bones and
remaining offal OF the carcass were
later put in a sack, carefully carried
to the sea and thrown into deep water.
Circumstantially rain fell for q few
hours on the succeeding day.

Foaying a sigh as OF relief, she went
on:
Mr.. Lane was insane, am certain.
/ tried to have Mr.. Knapp take steps
TO lock him up. But Mr.. Knapp could
not believe that his brother was SO
wicked as to wish to take the life of
his own child. ! think he was fearful
of a scandal in which the relationship
should become known. But there was
a time a few weeks ago, when l was
near squirting Mr.. Knapp to action. II
was at the time Of his trip to Virginia
City Mr. Lane came to the house
while / was away and scared the SER
wants into fits with his threats and
curses. Luella had the courage and
tact TO face him and get him out of the
house and l telegraphed for Mr.,
Knapp"
Il remember the occasion, though
| didn't know what was going on
We'll, Mr.. Knapp was very angry,
and had long talk with Lane. He
told me that the creature cried and
pleaded for forgiveness and promised
amendment for the future. And Mr..
Knapp believed him. Yet that very
night you were. assailed with Luella
in Chinatown"
The truth flashed on me. The
groans and cries behind the locked
door in Doodridge Knapp's Office, the
voices which were like to one man
pleading and arguing with himself,
were all explained.
Il think the assault was something
of an accident" she continued; cor,
rather it was more the doing of Ter
rill than of Lane"
What was the cause of Terrill's
enmity?" | asked. He seemed to take
n hearty personal interest in the case
for a hired man.
For one thing, family interest.
think he is a son of Lanes early
years. For another he had q violent
personal quarrel with Henry over
some matter, and you have had the
benefit of the enmity. But | don t
think you'll hear of him again-or
Meeker either. They will be in too
much of a hurry to leave the state
At her last words we were at the
wharf, and landed free from fear.

CHAPTER XXx.-Continued.

l suppressed an exclamation, and
she continued:
"They have little in common. even
in looks. ] wonder you thought for
n moment that he was Mr.. Knapp. Few
people who know them both have
traced a resemblance
II think" said |, that the remark
able circumstances under which | had
seen MIR. Lane had good deal to do
with the illusion. This morning, for
the first time, | saw his face under
full light and close at hand
Mrs. Knapp nodded. Then she con
tinued:
MIR. Knapp and his brother parted
30 years ago in Ohio. The brother
the man who has just gone-was
younger than Mr.. Knapp. though he
looked older. He was wild in his
youth. When he left home it was in
the night and for some offense that
would have brought him within reach
OF the law. Mr.. Knapp never told me
what il was and [ never asked. For
Is years nothing wNs heard of him
Mr.. Knapp and | married. we had
come to San Francisco and he was al
ready a rising man in the city. One
day his man came. He had drifted

Mrs. Knapp paused.
And at once began to live off OF
him, ! ruppose," threw in as an en-
enlargement to proceed.
Not exactly said Mrs. Knapp. Tie
confessed some of his rascaiity to Ms,
Knapp. brt pleaded that he was anx
ious TO reform. Mr.. Knapp agreed to
help him, but made the condition that
he should take another name. and
should never allow the relationship to
be known. MIR. LANE can not call
him by nis true name-was ready IL
agree to the conditions. l think he
was glad indeed to conceal himself
under az assumed name and hide from
the memory of is earlier years"
Had his crimes then been SC
sreat?" ! asked. as Mrs. Knapp again
ceased To speak
"He had been e wicked. wicked

of his villainy l never knew. Mr.
Knapp helped him. He prospered in
