easy for this Rhodes. But, he also
 says, soldiers are not needed for fin-
 ance."
 Guy, from his obscure corner,
 where he sat with leg thrown over
 the back of his chair, gave a short
 laugh.
 "Your boy is quick" he said. The old man nodded and turned as Sam Goodall spike rapidly. We needn't beat about the bush, |" he said. There's only one spot in Africa where soldiers could be of any use. It's this country of ours. Is Darlington with hims'' "I do not know" Jerry smoked
 on refiectively while the younger men
 had their say.
 Don't you forget" put in Mike op- timistically, "the Colony can do noth- ing without the Imperial Govern
 ment. Gladstone, I fancy, is satis- fled with his miserable blunder at Majuba. I don't think the electors
 of Great Britain will risk another yet
 "But I don't think he will cut any figure if Rhodes is contemplating ac- tion," added Goodall. He's of diff ferent kidney to the student of Ha-
 warden
 "Goodall speaks the truth" nodded
 the trader. "The hand is moving our. way. Rhodes has a long arm. We
 do not see-we feel, eh, Sam? Look
 you, this trouble that was ours three months ago, we cannot say how it
 came, but it came. We have ideas,
 hub we cannot say. But the long
 arm of Rhodes reaches far. If it is
 he, then his eye is our way. which
 is bad business"
 Jerry Boyle's tone was decided. His
 keen, black eyes had lost the twinkle
 which usually gave his benign feat
 ures an almost humorous expression.
 Sam and Guy watched him curiously.
 Mike was less attentive. The Gel
 tic giant had always understood the
 masterful side of the traders char
 acter better than the others had done.
 They considered him chiefly as the financial head of their affairs. Now
 they were somewhat surprised at the strong manner in which he took the lead.
 'If we give him time he will upset
 our plans. So we must not give him time," Jerry went on. "The ques- tion is, how long will it take him to arrange things. One, two, three, four months; maybe longer. Well,
 we must act at once." He paused. His alert eyes were
 upon his audience, watching, probing. Quite abruptly he heaved himself out
 of his chair and moved over to a
 small safe standing on an up-turned soap-box at the far end of the room. This he unlocked, and drew from
 within a couple of sealed envelopes. "A letter from Hellmann & Oller- l and the other letter." he said, holding up both envelopes for the others to see.
 They remained silent, for all knew what those envelopes meant. Gro Be Continuedj

and destroyed ammunition. Who, then? Esthuisen? It seemed inn possible. What would he gain by it? No, Who, then? He thought and
 thought, but no solution to the prob lem offered itself. He wandered about the fire for an hour, loath to leave it, and seeking an answer to the riddle.
 But none was forthcoming, and at last he rode dejectedly away, filled with a blind fury against the un- known authors of his discontinue. From the shelter of a thick bush
 beyond the river three men were watching the dying bonfire They had
 just seen Sam Goodall ride away. There were two white men and a Kaffir.
 The white men were talking to- gether. and the Kaffir, with his keen eyes fixed on the glowing fire, was the white men was the Boer, Es- thuisen; the other, towering over him was Ferman Elwood. The Kaff1r was the native goatherd.
 You'd better let your nephews lie off at Metito with the wagons. You can join them tonight, and to-mor- row you can ride back here with some boys and bury the remains of the bonfire in the mud of the water holes. It'll take Goodau two days to get to vryburg with his news, so there will be no risk" "Ja' The Boer nodded. 'Tt's been a good days work" And paid for on both sides,'' Es- thuisen added cunningly. "Just so. These things have to be done-sometime
 Then Elwood turned to the Kaffir. '"We needn't wait any longer. The night is getting cold. Go and get your clothes on, Saturdag, and then fetch up the horses. The ride will ! warm you. S'mia-"
 The boy hurried off. Then, after 6 few moments of silence, the Boer turned to the other.
 What is this business?" he asked
 slowly; these guns; they were nol

 No. Guns are not good in a peace full country replied Elwood dryly. The Boer laughed gutturally. ''No-that is so. You find them hand. Your Kaffirs. they are well
 disciplined. You have guns in the country for your own service, eh?' "Yes; and the service of the coun- try"
 "An army of Kaffirs armed with Winchesters! Ha, ha! You will be president of Bechuanaland-may

 | The Boer shrugged and turned
 away just as Saturdag came up with
 the horses. Without a word they al
 three mounted and rode off, the Boel
 heading westwards, Elwood and his
 KafTir boy to the north.

CHAPTER XIII.

In the Shadow of an Ironstone Kopje.
 Guy Chalmer entered into his com
 pact with Ferman Elwood under a
 compulsion which he resented with
 all the viciousness of his unstable
 character. He meant to turn the
 mans weapons back upon himself In
 this matter he relied upon his knowl-
 edge of female character. He be-
 lieved he understood women, and
 judged Mary by his lamentably cyni-
 cal views of all womenkind.
 He had contracted this disease in
 his earlier days, when he lived amidst
 the "smartness'' of London's stage world; a disease, the chief symptom
 of! which was conviction that any
 woman could be won with sufficiently
 tactful persistence, that women were
 creatures of warm impulses towards
 the opposite sex, at all times vulner-
 able through their vanity to any
 well-directed attack. That his ex- periences had been chiefly gained amongst the butterfly order of wom-
 en did not matter to him in the least
 To him they were all alike in char acter. His nature was such that he
 would not have recognized true wom- anhood had he beheld it, nor would he have appreciated it had it been pointed out to him.
 He did not regard the compact l from it's consequences to himself, but merely in so far as it might react upon the man who had dictated it. and because of the chance it gave him of winning Mary. But by the time six months of the allotted twelve | had elapsed he began to realize that somehow he had miscalculated things, that events were not moving quite as | he had anticipated And the cause | of his realization was Mary herself. From the moments he dismissed him from her presence, she adopted every means at her disposal to prevent his returning into her life again.
 | At first he treated her attitude as l he treated all things, quite lightly, refusing to regard it at all seriously, but as time went on and there came TO change, her womanish whim. as he was pleased to consider it, became
 first a source of annoyance, then of uneasiness, and finally of unreason- ing jealousy Still. his perspective, did not extend to the ultimate issue.
 His nature was not one to digest hard facts. His vanity was an armour

 The announcement was made in Jerry Boyle's gutteral tones, but without any especial significance.
 It was the hour before dawn. The little room It the back of the store ac Sitlagoli was bathed in yellow gloom The solitary lamp was burn ing low, and the air of the room was foul with the reek of paraffin and tobacco. The shadows threw into relief four serious-faced men.
 Guy Chalmer had just arrived. The others had been up all night await ing him.
 As no comment was forthcoming from his audience, the old man went on.
 My boy in Kimberley has sent us a few details-and some papers. Rhodes Is not alone. There are men of the government with him who would support him. Also military men-three.
