Paul Rowland Of Ohio declared his

CHAPTER XIV,

He opened his eyes again, alone on
the cool, damp, earthen floor, but as
sured that the feminine element in his
adventure had been no hallucination,
after all; for he could see the girl
standing little to one side and look
ing down upon him, her face so deep
in shadow that he could gather moth
ing from its expression, whether it
We're of displeasure or of perplexity.
From this and that, however, he de-
| duced that she, discovering herself
lavishing endearments on the wrong
man, was not utterly delighted with
the situation. The circumstances TAX
en- into consideration, such a state Of
mind he thought not unreasonable;
and being now to some extent recov-
ered he saw no profit in making her
suffer more. So with a show of
faintness not wholly assumed, he
rolled his head to one side, opening
wide his eyes and looked the woman
in the face, inquiring with his faint,
thin brogue: whats this. now. me

The girls face darkened. She shook
her head impatiently. II have no Eng.

a tightening face, nor anything that

"Not the least in the world. What
did happen, now?"
But she fanked that embarrassing
question adroitly, evidently much re-
lieved by O'Rourke's reinsurance.
Which was just what he wished her
frame of mind to be. Nothing that
matters" she replied, continuing to
employ the French tongue and that
very prettily, with a fetching little ac-
cent. 81 think you tainted. Then-but

"Ah!" he sighed, resuming his seat

iron door and sent the girl flying to-

O'Rourke opined as she swept past
him.
She murmured response he did

called after her.

at the entrance to the rear chamber,

"As l thought that was reasonable,

defiant Irish yells Turing them further
upon the false scent.
If it's not Danny" gasped the ad-
venturer, then myself's not the
O'Rourke! Bless the LADY"
| But as he breathed this benediction
the iron door swung inwards and he
stumbled across the threshold, half
fainting, hardly conscious that he had
done more than pass from open night
to the night OF an enclosed space. His
foot caught on some obstruction and
be went to his knees with cry that
! was a cross between a sob and a
groan; and incontinently fell full
length upon an earthen floor, his head
pillowed on his arm, painting as If his
heart would break.
In the darkness above him someone
cried aloud, startled cry, and then
the door was thrust to with clang
and rattle of bolts. A match rasped
loudly and flicker of light leaped
from small hand lamp and revealed
to its bearer the tagged and quivering
figure on the floor.
Some one sat down beside him with
low exclamation of solicitude and
gathered his head into her lap. Some
one quite simply EMBODIED his neck
with soft arms and pressed his head
to her bosom. and as if that were not
enough, kissed him full and long upon
his lips
my dear! My dear!" she murmured
In French. What has happened, o,
what has happened? MY poor, poor
boy"
Now the integral madness of all this
was as effectual in restoring O'Rourke
to partial consciousness as had been
a douche of cold water In his face.
Blankly he told himself that he was
damned, and that it was all a dream.
And yet, when he looked, it was to
see, dim in the feeble glimmer of the
lamp, the face of a woman as beauti-
full as young, as young as beautiful.
One glance was enough. O'RDurke
shut his eyes again. ''If I look too
long," he assured himself, she'll van
ish or--or turn into fiend. Sure, It's

will undoubtedly be the delirium-tre.

"Yis, sor?"

Give 1t here, and bring another

Alone, O'Rourke seated himself on
the edge of the fountain and consid-
cred gravely the uncertainties of life.
"'Tis fate" he concluded soberly, at
length. "And it's hard upon eleven
now. They will not dare to run that
cargo before midnight; and-meself
sorely needs bath"
Deliberately he stripped off rags and
tatters and plunged into the fountain.
Danny was back with the promised
wearing apparel ere he had finished

And while O'Rourke dressed, and for
long thereafter, the two sat and
smoked and confabulated, talked Of
Men and Things and the turn of tho
Wheel of the World.
