Inevitably linked her coming with
Stuart's change of feeling.
With the liberal use of money she
glade the acquaintance of member
Of the chorus of the grand opera com
pany who agreed to report to her every
movement In Harlfet's life.
At the beginning of the season the
usual quarreling of the stars gave to
the young singer the opportunity of
her life. and Mans friend reported that
the little golden haired understudy was
suddenly booked to sing the leading
role in Faust on account of the ill
ness of the star.
Nan. believing Harriet would fail,
asked Stuart to spend the evening in
her box at the opera-the first time he
had allowed himself to be alone with
her since their return from the cruise.
Yes, Nan" he answered quickly,
I'll go with pleasure. A little friend
Of mine is to sing great role tonight.
I'm so glad you're going. | want you
to hear her and help me applaud"
If Harriet should succeed tonight
the thought was suffocating to Nan
tomorrow her name would be on the
lips of thousands and new star would
be shining in the musical world!
Stuart took Harriet to the stage door
on his way for Nan. AS the cab
wheeled up Broadway he was in a
fever of excitement over the outcome

Harriet's little figure suddenly still
ened at the sight of Nan, but at the
sound of her friendly voice relaxed
and moved to,meet the extended hand
Thank you. Mrs. Bivens.' = she re-
piled cordially.
And then Stuart did something that
sent a shock through every fiber of
Mans being.
AS easily and naturally as big
brother he slipped one of bis long
arms around Harriet and looked down
with frank admiration into her eyes.
You see. Nan. she's mine. | raised
her from wee little mite. And this
was such cruel and dangerous exper-
iment-she had no chance. 1t was i'm
possible, but, God bless her, she did

Nan made up her mind instantly to
act on plan that had been vaguely
forming and tempting her for the past
months. It was her trump card. She
had hesitated to play it. but she would
do it now without delay.

CHAPTER XXI.
The Mockery of the Sun.

~TUART refused to talk to Nan,
went abruptly to his stateroom
and spent a night of feverish
Dreams His exhaustion was so
acute restful sleep was impossible.
Through the night his mind went over
and over the horror of the moment on
that marsh when he had looked into
the depths of his own soul and seen
the flames of hell.
Between the times of doing uncon-
seriousness, which came at intervals, he
wondered what had become of the two
men in that disabled tender. He wait
ed with dread the revelation the dawn
would bring. He rose with the sun
and looked out of his stater0om win
dow. The bay was a solid sheet of
glistening ice. The sun was shining
from a cloudless sky, and the great
white field sparkled and flashed like a
sea OF diamonds.
He dressed hurriedly, went into the
galley, made a fire and called Nan. He
raped gently on the paneled partition
which separated their Staterooms. He
could hear her low. softly spoken an
swer as If there were nothing between
them
Yes. Jim, what is it? Are you illY'
mo, hungry. You will have to help
Lie get some breakfast"
THE cook hasn't Gomez" she asked
in surprise.
There was moments hesitation, and
his voice sounded queer when he quiet
~ answered:
mo"
In ten minutes she appeared at the
door Of the galley, her hair hanging in
glorious confusion about her face and
the dark eyes sparkling with excite
ment.
What on earth does it mean. Jim?"
she asked breathlessly Gal could tell
me nothing last night. Why hasn't the
cook returned?''
He may never come, Nan"
why, Jim?'' she gasped.
"They started to tow us in. and the
engine broke down i think the car
buretor probably froze. and they were
driven before the wind. helpless.
There's a chance in a thousand that
they reached an oyster shanty and
found shelter Well hope for the best
In the meantime you and | will have
to learn to cook again for few days"
"a few days" Nan exclaimed.
Yes The bay is frozen. Our old
guide is a good cook, but he's safe in
harbor ashore. He had too much sense
to venture out last night He can't
get here now until the ice breaks up"
Nan accepted the situation with girl

Sheehan to the United States senate to sue
ceed Chauncey M. Depew. He thought he
had the legislature as tightly sewed up and
completely within his grasp then as he
proved to have it the other day when he
practically issued orders over long distance
telephone that William sulzer, governor,
should be impeached.
But there was small handful Of anti
Tammany members he could not control.
They rebeIled against Sheehan and forced the
legislature to mark time day after day while
Murphy and his leutenants resorted to every
trick of the game to crush them. When MUIR
ply saw he could not put Sheehan over " he
threw him over and trotted out O'Gorman,
who was elected. 1t was a forced compro-
mise, however, and the boss ate his first meal
Of humble pie. And the man who led the
fight against the Murphy Sheehan crowd on
that occasion was Franklin d. Roosevelt

assistant secretary of the navy.
