The Gate Of Dreams.

IN my neart l was anxious to dc
justice to Gillespie. Sad it is that We
are all so given to passing solemn
Judgment on trifling testimony! my
self am not impeccable. 1 should al

such one is clearly marked for bru
tally. My prejudices rally as to a
trumpet-call at the sight of a girl
wearing overshoes or nibbling bon
bons-the one suggestive of predatory
habits and weak lungs, the other OF
nervous dyspepsia.
The night was fine, and after re.
turning my horse to the stable con-
tinued on to the Glenarm boathouse. I
was strolling along, pipe in mouth,
and was halfway up the boathouse
steps when a woman shrank away
from the veranda rail, where she had
been standing, gazing out upon the
lake. There was no mistaking her.
She was not even disguised tonight,
and as advanced across the little yer.
anda she turned toward me. The Ian
tern over the boathouse door suffused
us both as greeted her.
Pardon me, Miss Holbrook; I'm
afraid l have disturbed your medita-
tions," I said. "But if you don't
mind"
"You have the advantage of being
on your own ground" she replied.
Il waive all my rights as tenant If
you will remain"
ut is much nicer here than on St.
Agatha's pier; you can see the lake
and the stars better. On the whole"
she laughed, Il think 1 shall stay a
moment longer, if you will tolerate
me-"
l brought out some chairs and we
sat down by the rail, where we could
look out upon the star-sown heavens
and the dark floor of stars beneath.
Helen bent forward with her elbows
resting on the rail, her hands clasped
under her chin. The lamplight fell
full upon her slightly lifted head, and
upon her shoulders, over which lay a
fllmy veil. She hummed dreamily for
moment while I watched her. Had
she one mood for the day and another
for the night? I had last seen her
that afternoon after an hour of ten
mis-, at which she was expert, and she
had run away through Glenarm gate
with taunt for my defeat; but now
the spirit of stars and of all earth's
silent things was upon her. I looked
twice and thrice at her clearly
outlined profile, at the brow with its
point of dark hair, at the hand where
on the emerald was clearly distin-
guishable, and satisfied myself that
there could be no mistake about her.
"You grow bold" said, anxious to
hear her voice. "You don't mind the

assume that had one of those fell

trouble of trying to account for my
exits and entrances. I will tell you
in confidence, Mr.. Donovan, that I
don't like to be obliged to account for
myself"

after pause.
Hes the skipper of the Stiletto,"
Gillespie replied, readily.

The mention of the Italian clearly
troubled Gillespie. After a moment he
said:
"He may be holding on to Henry in

'No; l don't"
"Well, I have an idea that the dago

"You told me that Henry Holbrook
found his way here ahead of you. How
do you account for that?"
He looked at me quickly, and rose,
again pacing the narrow room.
Il don't! I wish I could"
"It's about the last place in the
world to attract him. Port Annandale
is a quiet resort frequented by western
people only. There's neither hunting
nor fishing worth mentioning; and a

Indiana to sail boat on a thimbleful
of water like this lake."
