a step or so in the rear. His opulent fancy began to deal with the situa- tion.
 If anything happens to the child, the man responsible for 1t would bet ter never been born-Tll pursue him with undiminished energy from this moment forth!" he panted.
 What could happen to him, Price?" asked Mahaffy.
 God knows. poor little lad!"
 "Wnl you shut up!" cried Mahafy savagely.
 "Solomoni"
 Why do you 60 building on that ideal Why should any one harm him what earthly purpose- 'I tell you. Solomon. ws are the pivotal point in . vast circle of crime. This is . blow at me--this Is revenge. sir, neither more nor less! They have struck at mo through the boy. 1t is as plain as day"
 What did the overseer sayr
 Just that they found Miss Malroy gone from Belle Plain this morning, and the boy with her"
 This is like you, Pricei How do you know they haven't spent the night at some neighbor's?'
 "The nearest neighbor Is five or six miles distant Miss Malroy and Han nibal were seen along about dusk in the grounds at Belle Plain; do you mean to tell me you consider it likely that they set out on foot at that hour, and without a word to any one, to make a visit?" inquired the judge; but Mahaffy did not contend for this point
 What are you going to do first, Price?"
 Have a look over the grounds, and talk with the slaves"
 Where's the brother-wasnt he at Belle Plain last night?"
 Tt seems he went to Memphis yes- terday."
 They plodded forward in silence; now and again they were passed by some man on horseback whose des- tination was the same as their own. and then at last they caught sight Of Belle Plain in it's grove of trees.

ants, who had nothing especial to tell. but told it at considerable length; and lastly big Steve.
 Stop a bit" the judge suddenly in- terrupted the butler in the midst of his narrative. Does the oyerseer al ways come up to the house the first thing in the morning."
 Why, not exactly. sah. but he come up this mo'ning, sah. He was talking to me at the back of the house. when the women run out with the word that Missy was done gone away"
 He joined in the search7"
 Yes, sah."
 When was Miss Malroy seen last '" asked the judge.
 She and the young gemman you fetched heah were seen in the gyar- den along about sundown. seen them myself"
 They had had supper?"
 Yes, sab"
 ''Who sleeps here?"
 Just little Steve and three of the women: they sleeps at the back Of the house, sah."
 No sounds were heard during the night?"
 No, sah."
 ''Ill see the overseer-what's his name?-Hicks? Suppose you so for him!" said the judge. addressing the sheriff.
 The sheriff was gone from the room only a few moments. and returned with the information that Hicks was down at the bayou, which was ,o be dragged.
 Why" inquired the judge. Hicks says Miss Malroy's been act ing mighty queer ever since Charley Norton was shot-distracted like! .He says he noticed 1t. and that Tom Ware noticed It."
 How does he explain the boys dis appearance?" He reckons she throwed herself in, and the boy tried to drag her out, like he naturally would, and got drawed in"
 aHumph! I'll trouble MT Hicks to step here," said the judge quietly. There's MT. Darlington and a couple of strangers outside who've been asking about Miss Malroy and the boy; seems like the strangers knowed her and him back wonder in Moth Carolina" said the sheriff as he turned away. "I'll see them" The sheriff went from the room and the judge dismissed the servants. Well, what do you think, Price?" asked Mahaffy anxiously when they were alone. Rubbish! Take my word for 1t. Solomon, this blow Is leveled at me. have been too forward in my at tempts to suppress the carnival of crime that Is raging through west Tennessee. You'll observe that Miss ] Malroy disappeared at Q moment when the public is disposed to think she has retained me as her legal ad- wiser; probably she will be set at lib- erty when she agrees to drop the mat ter of Norton's murder.

CHAPTER XxlIl.
The Judue Finds Allies.

They were interrupted by the open ing of the door, and big Steve admit ted Darlington and the two men Of whom the sheriff had spoken.
 "A shocking condition of affairs, MT. Carrington!" said the judge by way of greeting.
 'Yes," said Darlington shortly.
 You left these parts some time ago. I believer" continued the judge.
 'rhe day before Norton was shot. I had started home for Kentucky. l heard of his death when I reached Randolph on the second bIur," ex- plained Darlington. from whose cheeks the weather beaten bloom had faded. He rested his hand on the edge Of the desk and turned to the men who had followed him into the room. This is the gentleman you wish to see," he said, and stepped to one of the win dows; it overlooked the terraces where he had said good-by to Betty scarcely q week before.
 The two men had paused by the door. Thsy now aAvanesd- Ons was Gaass saA AAgGael. Ais faee lasalsrse

boy, they'll use him to compel my si- lence and inaetion." The judge took a long breath. Yet there remains one point where the boy Is concerned that completely bafFies me. If we knew just a little more of his antecedents and radical move"
 Mahaffy was clearly not impressed by the vague generalities in which the judge was dealing.
 There you go. Price. as usual, try ing to convince yourself that you are the center of everything!" he said, in a tone of much exasperation. Let's get down to business, What does this man Hicks mean by hinting at sui eide? You saw Miss Malapy yester- dayY
 You have put your finger on a point of some significance" said the judge. She bore evidence of the shock and loss she had sustained; aside from that she was quite as she has always been."
 Well. what do you want to sec Hicks for? What do you expect tol learn from himf"
 T don't like his insfstence on the idea that Miss Malroy is mentally un- balanced. It's a question of some delicacy-the law, sir. fully recog- nizes that It seems to me he is over anxious to account for her disappear ance in a manner that can compro- mise no one."

CHAPTER XXI.
The Judes rakss Charge.


 All work on the plantation had stopped, and the hundreds of slaves men. women and children-were gath cred about the house. Among these moved the members of the dominant race. The judge would have attached himself to the first group. but he heard a whispered question, and the answer:
 Miss Malroy's lawyer"
 Clearly 1t was not for him to mix with these outsiders. these curiosity seekers. He crossed the lawn to the house, and mounted the steps. In the doorway was big Steve, while groups of men stood about in the hall, the hum of busy purposeless talk pervad- ing the place. The judge drowned. This was all wrong.
 Has Mir Ware returned from Mem- phis?" he asked of Steve.
 No, sah; not yet.
 Then show me into the library" said the judge with bland authority, surrendering his hat to the butler. Come along, Mahaffy." he added. They entered the library, and the judge motioned Steve to close the door, Now, boy, you'll kindly ask those people to withdraw-you may say it is Judge Prices orders. Allow no one to enter the house unless they have business with me, or as l send for them-you understand? After you have cleared the house, you may bring me decanter of corn whisky stop a bit-you may ask the sheriff to step here"
 Yes, sab" And Steve withdrew.
 The judge drew an easy-chair up to the fat-topped desk that stood in the center of the room, and seated him. self.
 Are you going to make this the excuse for another drunk. Price? If so, feel the greatest contempt for you" said Mahanfy sternly.
 The judge winced st this. [
 You have made @ regrettabIs choice of words, Solomon" he urged gently.
 Where's your feeling for the boyT"
 "Here!" said the judge. with an eio- quent gesture, resting his hand on his heart.
 "If you let whisky alone, I'll believe you: otherwise what have said must stand"
 The door opened. and the sherin slouched into the room. He was chew ing a long wheat straw, and his whole appearance was one of troubled weak ness.
 Morning" he said briefly. '
 "Sit down, sheriff." and the judge, indicated meek seat for the official in a distant corner. Have you learned anything?" he asked.
 The sheriff shook his head.
 What you turning all these neigh bors out of doors for?" he questioned.
 We don't want people tracking in and out the house, sheriff. Important, evidence may be destroyed. l propose, examining the slaves first-does that meet with your approyal?"
 "Oh, I've talked with them; they don't know nothing" said the sherif. No one don't know nothing"
 Please God, We may yet put our fingers on some villain who does-' said the judge.
 Outside it was noised about that Judge Price had taken matters ln hand-he was the old fellow who had been warned to keep his mouth shut, and who had never stopped talking since. A crowd collected beyond the library windows and feasted its eyes on the back of this hero's bald head.
 One by one the house servants were ushered into the judges presence. First he interrogated little Steve. who had gone to Miss Betty's door that morning to rouse her. as was his GUS tom. Next hs sxaninsd Bsttys maid: tAea tAs eeok, asl ysstess nosss ssrv:

The judge sighed deeply. He took up the jug and inverted 1t. A stray drop or so fell languidly into his glass.
 "Try squeezing it, Price," said Ma haffy.
 The judge shook the jug, it gave forth an empty sound. and be sighed again; he attempted to peer into it. closing one watery eye as he tilted 1t toward the light.

FINANCIAL APPEAL.

Members and friends of the Bethle~
ham Babtist church worshipins at 2716
Larimer street, on Sunday, June 16,
at 8 p. m, we will close our financial
campaign. We are working now TO
start sinking fund for building pur-
poses. We have succeeded in paying
for two lots, 2Sth and Lawrence Sts.,
and it is an undeniable fact that a
church house is badly needed in the
eastern part of the city, where hum
dreds of our people live who never at
tend the churches in other parts of
the city, so we make this appeal to
the members of all the churches and
non-members in the city to contribute
something for this great undertaking.
Our present place of worship is small
and If you cannot attend our rally
services please send your contribu-
ton to the pastor, 1928 California st
Rev. A. M. Ward, pastor of Shorters
A. M. E. church, will be the preacher
of the hour. All the pastors of the
city will be present to assist us in an
effort to start a building fund. We
are making this special appeal in the
name of the Lord.
