sure him that he was pleasing to her
and that she deeply appreciated his
attention. But she could not take any
decisive step in so important a mat
ter without first consulting her father.
She felt that 1t was her first duty to
save her brother. To accomplish this
she was ready to sacrifice life itself.
Merito. never at a loss for a sub
terfuge, proposed to interest himself
and secure a condonement OF her
brothers offense through the assist
ance of the Italian consul at New
York. This ray of light was present
ed in fine Italian style and must have
sounded hopeful to the ears OF Miss
Brownie. Her face now fairly beamed
with Joy as she assured him she
would willingly give all she possessed
in the world to effect such a result
She promised to marry him should he
succeed in saving her brother from
prosecution for his past offenses.
The day following this l received at
my New York office a letter marked

could he help svmpathiziug with her?
Even though his REPRESENTATIONS in
regard to himself were falsely made

York and FAN River, Merito was close
at her heels. She stepped up into the
grand salon and after moving about
for few moments, beckoned to a
nut-brown chambermaid. When the
servant came near the young lady
opened a pearl inlaid portemonnaie,
and taking from it a ten dollar bill, re-
quested her to procure a stateroom
and passage ticket to the city of
Boston
few minutes afterwards the cham
bermaid returned and informed the
young lady that the staterooms on the
boat were all engaged.
The young lady seemed greatly dis
appointed and said It was a sorry
predicament for her to be placed In:
and if the deep drawn sigh she ut
tered was ar index Of her feelings at
that moment, she was not only greatly
disappointed, but at a loss to know
what to do.
Merito. who was near at hand, was

meut he pushed himself TO the front
and with the politest of French bows,
said; Please excuse me, young lady,

assist you. If you win allow me l

Never mind the money until |

He thereupon went below. The
sister, he thought, is not responsible
for the sins of her brother; besides,
the making of her acquaintance might
give him better opportunity for dis
covering the whereabouts Of the man
he was seeking. In his Imagination
he was sure that she was going TO
meet him
This was his opportunity, thought
he He would ingratiate himself into
the good graces of this young woman
and if possible learn the Whereabouts
of her brother
The oily tongued detective had no
great difficulty in securing the coveted
prize. Steamboat clerks are always
wise enough to reserve an extra ticket
or two for special purposes.
When Merito returned to the grand
salon and handed the young lady her
tickets she was profuse in her thanks
and expressed her deep obligation. AS
she held the tickets between her
jeweled fingers she beamed a smile
and displayed a set Of pearly white
teeth, encircled by pair of ruby lips,

even than the diamond solitaires that
adorned her ears.
The detectives heart was throbbing
wildly. He could scarcely contain
himself. 1t was a case of love at first
sight. The hot blood of the Italian
was surging to his head. He was quite
bewildered
Collecting his scattered senses he
was soon able TO convince the young
woman that he was a man Of conse-
quence, and that while their meeting
was but casual, he was greatly de-
lighted because Of the opportunity Of
fered to make her acquaintance.
1t was late in the evening when they
babe each other good night with a
promise to meet again on the arrival
of the steamer at Fall River in the
early morning.
Merito had not only discovered that
Miss Brownie was lovely and fas-
cinating, but that she was frank, con.
fding and truthful She had nothing

home and aed to Canada, where she
was expecting to meet him.
Learning this, the detective was
deeply interested, not only in the
brother, but in the sister as well. In
deed, she was the most attractive per
son he had ever before met To his
mind she was everything that woman
should be. Wealthy, educated and af-
fectiOnate, she was brave and roman
tic enough to venture out alone and
battle the cold world for the purpose
of redeeming her hayward brother.
So gentle and unassuming did she ap-
pear that he was sure she had a
heart overlooking with love
AS these thoughts came meandering
through his brain he saw in his eager
ness the opportunity of his life. He
would somehow be instrumental in
saving the brother and thus win the
fair girls neutrality-suspicious. her love.
He felt sure that he could trust to her
generous heart to forgive him for de-
ceiving her by palming himself off as
the son of nobleman
When the couple arrived in Boston
they went at once to the United States
hotel. where they took breakfast to-
gether. The detective now thought
Miss Brownie more fascinating than
ever and at the first opportunity he
threw discretion to the winds and be-
gan wooing in the most approved
Italian style Pressing his suit with
an ardor more impetuous than con
ventional, he begged her to become
his wife.
It appears that her deep sorrow,
her soft words, and above all, her
tears, had quite bewildered him Real
beauty in distress was too much for
the warm blooded Latin, and he sur
