A Name Goes Round a Table.

A Name Goes ROund a able.
For tonight, from the moment he
had appeared, she had recognized an
unfamiliar mood in him, and it had
come out the, more they had discussed
the ChatwOrth ring.
She wondered, is he heaped her err
mine on her shoulders, if Harry
might not have more surprises for her
than she had supposed. Perhaps she
had taken him too much for granted.
After all, she had known him only for
a year.
She herself was but three years old
in San Francisco, and to her new eyes
Harry had seemed an old resident
thoroughly established. So firmly es-
tablished was he in his bachelor quar-
tiers, in his clubs, in the demands
made upon him by the city's society,
that it had never occurred to her he
had ever lived anywhere else. Nor
had he happened to mention anything
of his previous life until tonight, when
he had given her, in that mention of
a London ball, one flashing glimpse of
former experiences.
Impul-ively she summed up the pos
sibilities of what these might nave
been. She gave him a look, incredu-
lous, delighted, as he handed her int
the carriage. She had actually got a
thrill out of easy-gOing, matter-Of-fact,
weIl-tubbe9 Harry! 1t was cOmrade-
ship in itself. Not that she would
have told him. This capacity of hers
for thrills she had found need always
to keep carefully covered. In the days
when she was a shoeless child-thOse
days of her fathers labor in shaft and
dump-she had dimly felt her world
to be a creature of a keen, a fairly
cruel humor, for all things that did not
pertain to the essence of the life it
struggled for. The Wonder of the
western flare of day, the magic in the
white Eyes of the stars before sunrise,
the mystery in the pulse of the pound
ing mine heard in the dark-Of such
it had been as ruthless as this new
world that looked as narrowly forth
at as starved a prospect with even
keener ridicule. Instinctively she had
turned to both the hard, bright face
they required.
Fatherless, m~otherless, alone upon
the pinnacle of her fortune, she had
known that such an extraordinary en-
trance, even at this rather wide social
portal, would only be acceptable if
toned down, CLOSED over and drawn
out by a personality sufficiently neu-
trail, sufficiently potent and sufficiently
in need of what she had to give. The
successive fickers of the gas lamps
through the carriage window made of
Clara's profile SO hard and fine a little
medallion that it was impossible to
conceive it in need of anything. And
yet it was just their mutual need that
| had drawn these two women together,

She felt that she had been stupid
where she should nave been most deli
cate. But you don't understand she
protested, leaning far tOward him as
if to cOerce him with her generous
warmth. The Chatworth ring was
nothing but a fancy l had. l v
thought of it for a moment as an en-
gagement ring"
By the light stir of silk she was
aware that Clara had risen. She look
ed up quickly to encounter that odd
look. Clara's face was so smooth, so
polished, so unruff1ed, as to appear al
most blank, but none the less Flora
saw it all in Clara's eye-a look that
was not new to her. 1t was the same
with which Clara had met the an
nOuncement of her engagement; the
same look with which she had con-
frOnted every allusiOn to the ap-
preaching MARRIAGE; the same with
which she now surveyed the mention
of the engagement ring-a look Meth
er approving nOr dissenting, whose
| calm, c~Onsiderate speculation seemed
to repudiate all interest positive or
negative in the approaching event ex-
cept the one large question, What
is to become of me?" Many times
Clara had held it up before her, not as
a question. certainly moi as an ac-
cuSatiOn: as a fiat assertion OF fact;
but tonight Flora felt it so directly
and imperatively aimed at her that it
seemed this time to demand an audi
Bile response. And Clara's way of get
ting up. and standing there, with her
gloves on. poised and ~eXpectant, as If
she were only waiting on opportunity
to take farewell, took on, in he light
of her look, the fantastic appearance
of a final departure. I'm afraid,
she mildly reminded them, that
Shima announced the carriage ten
minutes ago."
"Oh, dear, I'm so sorry" Flora's
eyes wavered apOlOgetically in the di-
rection of the waiting Japanese.
Clara'S flicker of amusement made
her hate herself the moment it was
out. She could always depend on her
self when she knew she was on eXhi-
bition. She could be sure Of the right
thing if it were only large enough,
but she was still caught at odd mo-
ments by the t%rif1es, the web of a GER
tain Social udDlC luCO WHICH she Hdu
slipped, full-grown on the smooth sur
face of her ather's million's. Clara's
feeting smile lit up these trifes to
her now as enormous. 1t too advan-
tage of her small deficit to point out
to her more plainly than ever to what
large blunders she might be liable
when she had cut loose from Clara's
guiding, reminding, prompting genius,
and chose to confront the world with
out it.
To be sure, she was not to confront
it alone; but, looking at Harry, it
came to her with a moments qualm
that she did not know him as we'll as
she thought she had.

bility is the thing'll be returned and
no questions asked. Purdie's keen

But Clara BrittOn leveled her eyes
at him, as if the thing he had pro-
duced was not at all the thing he had
led up to. Still, unless there was
enormous pressure sOmeWhere-and
in this case l don see where can't
see what Mr.. Purdie's keenness will
do toward getting it back"
Harry played a little sulkily with
the proposition, but he would not pick
up the thread he had dropped. Il
don't know that any one sees. The
question now is-who took it?"

her. It's a COMPOUNDED fine profess

that, There was a chap in England,

The name fOated in a little silence.

beyond their wont.

Flora began to laugh. H must

Well" Harry conceded practically,
he knew his business
But you can't rely on those sto-
ries," Clara objected.
You must this time" he shook his
tawny head at her; Il give you my
word; for l was there"
It seemed to Flora fairly preposter-
Gus that Harry could sit there looking
so m~atter-of-fact with such expert
ences behind him. Even Clara looked
a little taken aback, but the effect
was only to set her more sharply on.
1Qen SuCD a man COulQ easily
have taken the ring in the Maple room
this afternoon? You think it might
have been the man himself?"
His broad smile of appreciation en-
veloped her. "Oh, o have a scent
liz a bloodhound. You haven't let go
of that one since you started. He
could nave done it-oh, easy-but he
went out eight, ten years ago"
'Died?" Flora's rising infection was
a lament.
Went Over the horizon-over the
r-nge. Believe he died in the col

oh" Flora sighed, then I shall
have to fancy he has come back again,
just for the sake of the Chatworth
ring. That wouldn't be too strange.
1t S all so strange l keep forgetting it
is real. At least" she went on ex-
planning herself to Harry's smile, cit
seems as if this must be going on a
long way off, as if it couldn't be so
close to us. as if the ring l wanted so
much couldn't really be the one that
has disappeared" All the while she
felt Harry's smile enveloping her with
an odd, half-protecting watchfulness.
but at the close of her sentence he
frowned a little.

He gayly acknowledged her right

ly at what was required Of him. IF
you wan to know the way it hap
pened-here's your Maple room" He
began a diagram with forks on he
cloth before him, and Clara, who had
watched their sparring from her point
of vantage in the background, now
leaned forward, as if at last they were
getting to the point.
This is the case, furthest from the
door" He planted a salt cellar in
his silver Enclosure. Il come in very
early. at half-past two, before the
crowd; fail to meet you there" He
made mischievous bows to right and
left. Il go out again. But first see
this ring"
What was it like?" Flora de-
manded.
"Like?" Harry turned a specula-
tive eye to the dull glow of the can
delabrum, as if between its points of
flame he cOnjured up the vision of the
vanished Jewel. Like a bit of an old
gold heather god curled round him
self, with his head, which was most

from it. l dropped into the club and
talked to Butler about it. He got
keen, and l went back with him to

door Butler stops to speak to a chap

had picked up at the club. l go on.
By this time there's a crowd inside,
but l manage to get up to the case.
And first l miss the spot altogether.
And then I see the card with his
name; and then, underneath l see the
hole in the velvet where the god had
been"
Flora gave out a little sigh of sus-
pense. and even Clara showed a CLEAN
of excitement. He looked from n
to the other. Then there were fire
works. Butler came up. The detec-
tive came up. Everybody came up.
Nobody'd believe it. Lots of 'em
thought they had seen it only a few
minutes before. But ~there was the

Flora sighed. "Oh, poor Bessie

and the air of a man who has thought
better of it. His voice consciously

WARM FIGHT AMONG
BRASS BED MAKERS

NEW YORK, March IAN interesting
war that has been waging between the
few largo and many small manufacturers
OF brass beds throughout the country for
the past six months has just ended in the
complete rout for the small manufactur-
ers. The fight has proved most interest
ing throughout.
Owing to the considerable drop some
time ago in the price Of copper. which
enters very largely into the construction
of brass beds, these small manufacturers
found that they could undersell the pre-
vaning prices Of the large manufacturers
and stiil maintain a substantial margin Of
profit The large manufacturers endeavor.
ed TO hold the small factories in line on
the regular prices but without avail. No
only did the large manufacturers almos
Immediately meet the cut prices Of theii
smaller competitors but made reductions
so great that small manufacturers couiS
