out and prevent its spreading. Why

the disease of carelessness We sup

the latter does not appear to receive
the same protection at the hands of
our law makers.

SYNOPSIS.

CHAPTER 1.-The story opens at
Monte Carlo with Col Terence o'Rourke
in his hotel. O'Rourke, a military free
draceins dSnSe sn8 for somesmng OF gambler. is
below when the sound of a girlish voice
singing attracts his attention Leaning
out on the balcony he sees a beautiful
girl who suddenly disappears. He rushes
to the corridor to see a neatly gowned
form enter the elevator and pass from
sight.
CHAPTER u.-O'Rourke's mind is
f1lled with thoughts of the girl, and when
he goes TO the gaming table he allows his
remarkable winnings to accumulate in
Inherently. He notices two men watch
ing him. One is the Hon. Bertie Glynn,
while his companion is Viscount Des
,frebes, a noted duelist. When O'Rourke
leaves the table the viscount tells him he
represents the French government and
that he has been directed to O'Rourke as
a man who would undertake a secret
mission.
In half an hour? I'll await We
then, monsieur"
Pardon, then, my haste | am late.
! must be Off"
The mans hand touched O'Rourke's s
in the most brief of clasps, singularly
firm and cold. The Irishman pondered
the sensation for some moments after
Des Trebes' hurrying figure had van
ished in shadows
Il don't like it," he averred; tits
bad sign-a hand that's naturally
cold. l never yet touched one like 1t
that belonged to a man We could trust.
I misdoubt he's sound at the core,
Des Trebes. But then, what's
the odds? Can I not take care of me-
self? And since 'tis the Government
Of France I'm treating with, and him
self only the medium-that puts alto
gether a different complexion on the
matter"
He spent the ensuing half-hour loi-
tering in the more populous portion
of the grounds, smoking as he stroll
ed, hts eyes keen to scrutinize each
woman who came his way. But he dis
covered none resembling her whom he
had seen In the Casino.

1t would be difficult to designate pre-
cisely just what O'Rourke thought to
discover, when after a punctilious re-
turn Of Captain Won Einems salute, he
reopened his door and, closing it quick
ly as'he entered, turned the key in the
lock-
His mood was exalted, his imagina-
tion excited; the swift succession of
events which had made memorable the

CHAPTER III.

AS he stepped out of the lift Colonel
O'Rourke remarked a light in his
room, visible through the transom
over the door.
"The femme de chambre," he
thought. Sure and the poor things
still busy trying to clear up. >"
To the contrary, he found the door
fast. "'Tis careless she was to leave
the light on" he observed, fitting his
key in the lock.
If thoughtless in that one way, the
woman had fulfilled the letter of her
word In the other. 1t was with COM
prehensive relief (since he anticipated
caller) that he found the room once
again presentable.
But one thing surprised him; and
more surprising still was the fact that
his ordinarily Indifferent eye should
have detected it at the first glance.
He had indeed hardly entered before
he became aware Of a square of white
paper tucked in the corner of the bu-
reau mirror
''The divvle, now!" he greeted It,
That's curious. Could one of
me many admirers have bribed the
femme de chambre to bring a note to
me-" He chuckled, holding to the
light much soiled envelope, grimy
with the marks Of many fingers, plas-
tered with stamps and black with
postage marks and substitute ad-
dresses, having evidently been for
warded over half the world before it
reached the addressee: who was,
in a bold hand, Colonel Terence
O'Rourke."
He whistled low over this, examin-
ing it intently. infinitely less concern
ed with its contents than with the
manner by which it had reached him.
The first postmark seemed to be that
OF Rangoon, the original address, the
Cercle Militaire, his club in Paris.
Thence, apparently, it had sought him
IN Galway, Ireland, Dublin, Paris again,
and fnally-after half a dozen other
addresses-"C. of Nine. O'Rourke, Ho-

lie recalled that woman's voice which
mad so stirred him, the woman of the
casino whose bearing had seemed to
MIN so familiar.
Some one tapped on the door; he
smothered a curse of annoyance, and
went to answer, thrusting the letter
into his pocket

oRourke. He was about to add, in

night, eliminating with his open in
vitation to a challenge from the most
desperate duelist in Europe, had in
spired volatile vivacity such as not
even the excitement of the Casino had
been potent 10 create in him. OF all
mad conjectures imaginable the mad
dest was too weird for him to credit in
his humor of that hour. Eliminating
all else that had happened, in the
course of that short evening, his heart
had been stirred, his emotions played
upon by recrudes ence OF a passion
which he had striven with all his
strength to put behind him for time:
he had first heard the voice of the one
woman to whom his love and faith and
honor were irretrievably pledged, he
had then seen her (or another who re-
markably resembled herr for the scant.
lest of instants; and finally he had
mysteriously received a letter which
could, he believed, have been convey
ed to him by no other hand but hers.
And now he was persuaded beyond a
doubt that the person of the alcove,
the eayesdropper for whose fair repute
he had chosen to risk his life, was no.
body in the world but that same one
woman.
But 1hore than all else, perhaps, he
expected and feared to find the room
deserted; for the balcony outside the
windows afforded a means of escape
too facile to be neglected by one who
wished not to be discovered. i.
His first definite impression was of
CONSERVATION and despair; for the
lights had been shut off in his alb
sence. Then quickly he discerned,
with eyes dazed by the change from
the lighted hallway to the lightless
chamber, the shadowy shape of wom-
an, motionless between him and the
windows, waiting.
An electric switch was at his ell
bow. With single motion he could
have drenched the place with light.
For an instant tempted, some strange
scruple of delicacy, abetted it may be
by his native love of romantic mystery,
stayed his hand

she neither moved nor replied, ''this

thought he could detect in the still.
