amount of work being done, but every
one is busy. The Nordak creamery

THE PASSING OF THE LAND OF.
EICE.

Grand Forks Times: Last month
the president issued an executive or.
der closing the Fargo land office and
transferring to the Bismarck and
Devils Lake offices the business
which yet remained in the old Fargo
district. A few years earlier the
Grand Forks Office was closed under
"a similar arrangement, the Devils
Lake office falling heir to the remain.
ing business of this district. The
closing of the Fargo office removes
from the Red River valley the last re.
hinder that Uncle Sam was a few
years ago in the business of giving
away farms, and was not only willing
that people should come and take
possession of his rich acres, but urg
ed them to do so.

CHAPTER XIII.
Tattoo Mark.

A Tattoo Mark.
Though l spoke in my ordinary tone,
the visiting Celestials gave no sign
that they heard me. I had expected
protestation. I should not have been
surprised had I been forced to restrain
them-to make them prisoners, in fact.
until the arrival of the police. But
neither of them either moved or spoke,
until the silence, in my nervously ex-
cited condition, becoming unbearable
to me, I demanded:
"By what right, Mr.. Yup, do you
make the assertion that my friend and
your enemy are one?"
With a supercilious arrogance of
manner that maddened me to the limit
of self-control, he made reply.
Il was coming to that, Mr.. Clyde,
when you SO unfortunately lost your
temper. In stating the purpose Of our
visit I think I informed you that it was
two-fold. In the first place, we came
to give what you had asked for-infor-
nation. In the second place, we came
to request something from you-as-
sistance. The motive Of the threaten
ing letters which Mr.. Cameron re-
ceived, I think I have made clear. For
sixteen years my people, the kinsfolk
Of the victims Of the Sable Lorcha,
have searched the world for the iend
who brought upon them a sorrow be-
yond any that you of the Occident can
understand. To us of the Celestial
Empire the tombs Of our fathers are
very dear. McNish robbed these men
not only of life but of decent burial"
THAT is all very WELL" I exclaimed,
impatiently, "but can't you e that a
terrible mistake has been made? Why
under heaven you should fancy that in
Mr.. Cameron, a gentleman to his fin
ger-tips, you have found this outlaw
iMcNish is incomprehensible."
Once more Yup Sing smiled his icy
smile and the Vice Consul made as If
to speak, but thinking better of it. ap.
parently, maintained his stolid silence.
"You were coming to that" l urged.
"The man to whom McNish boasted
OF his deed was the man who identified
him. They had been partners in the
Far East in the trade of smuggling
coolies. The one, l have no doubt,
was no better than the other; yet we
believe that our informant was neither
directly o indirectly concerned in
the particular piece of brutality of
which I have told you. Eventually, he
and McNish quarrelled and parted. For
some years he lost all trace of him;
and then by accident, one day he came
upon him, here in America, living in a
palace on Long Island Sound and mas.
querading under a new name"
"A resemblance" / cried, in a pas
sion of indignation. "a mere 'resem.
blance! And on that you and your
people conspire to torment and alb.
duct a purely innocent man. Was ever
such an outrage heard Of! Every one
OF you shall pay dear for this error"
I might have been the fire wood
s%puttering on the hearth for all the ef-
feet my vehemence had upon that
precious pair of Mongolians.
1--WE understand" the spokesman re-
sumed, that your friend managed in
some way to escape from his captors.

"Your friend, Mr.. Clyde" he said,
with a brief impressive pause between
each word, "and Donald McNish are
one and the same man"
Up to this point / had maintained
my poise. l had listened with feigned
respect and denied myself the satisfac-
tion of Interruptions. But at this pre-
posterous claim, l could contain my
self no longer. Before the slowly
spoken sentence was complete I had
sprung up, restless with impatient in
dignation, my blood throbbing in my
temples, my hands itching to throttle
an honest mans traducers.
"That," I cried, hoarse with exas.
peration, "is a damnable lie!"
If l expected retaliation I was disap-
pointed. Yup Sings scanned yellow
face continued an immobile mask for
whatever emotion he may have felt.
and Chen Mok placidly consulted his
memoranda.
Robert Cameron" I went on, my
passion whetted by their Indifference,
'has been a gentleman of leisure and
fortune always. OF all men in the
world he is the last to be accused of
such a crime as this. A seafaring man!
A smuggler of coolest! It is too pre-
posterous even for discussion. And
I want to tell you now, Mr.. Yup, and
you, too, Mr.. Chen, that I shall leave
no stone unturned to bring to justice
those who are guilty of having made
this un%thinkable mistake. Hitherto I
have been unable to get a clew. But
what you have said tonight does away
with that difficulty. Both of you shall
answer, now, to the authorities"

simultaneously he flashed

electrics. simultaneously he flashed
past me and was at his patients side.
What does this mean?" I heard him
say. What did you want? Can't I
trust you alone for ten minutes? I
told you. Cameron, that you must not
leave your bed unless l am with you"
saw Cameron cover under the up
braiding. In his eyes l read terror,
and all my sympathy was aroused on
this instant. Bryan might be carrying
out DR.. Massey's orders. but he ap.
peared to me unnecessarily harsh.
what were you doing?" he insist
ed; and then saw him roughly grasp
bis patients arm, and hold it up, re-
kealing a tightly clenched hand.
"Mr. Bryant" I cried in remon-
STRANGE. Gently, gently. Remember"
But the nurse paid small heed to
me. He was busy opening the doubled
fist.
I stood nov where l could look Cam
eron squarely in the face, but my gaze
was elsewhere. 1t was his left hand
over which Bryan vas engaged, and
from his wrist to his elbow the sleeve
of his white night robe had been
pushed back, exposing a sinewy fore.
arm, marked precisely as Bryan had
described it.
Scrutinizingly 1 bent forward. The
tattooing was indisputable, and, as the
nurse had said, it bore no evidence Of
being recent work.
Up to that moment l had hoped
against hope that in some way or 9TH
er a m~isconception had occurred. I
had hoped. I suppose. for the perform
ance of some miracle which would ex-
onerate this a And now that hope
was %obliterated by those blue-pricked
letters D. M. N. beneath an almost ex-
act facsimile of the black smudge
which had taken the place of signature
on each Of the three threatening let
ters-the black smudge, of which Cam
eron, wearing 1t then indelibly upon
the c%uticle, had dared to feign utter
ignorance.
And yet, I asked myself once more,
how was it that 1 had never noticed
it before? Again and again l had seen
that forearm barred. Surely l would
have observed so odd a mark; certain
ly / would have been perplexed by
those three uniting initials.
There, now!" Bryan was saying.
Back to bed with you, Cameron. What
did you want this letter for, anyway?
If it was necessary for you to have it,
couldn't I have got it for you?"
"Give it back to mel" Cameron was
pleading. piteously. "Give it back to
me! 1t is a private matter. Give 1t
back to me, or destroy it before my
eyes. Burn it, here. before me-"
Let me have it, Mr.. Bryan" I
asked, and turning to the unhappy gen.
tleman l said: you'll trust me, won't
you. Cameron? I'll destroy 1t, unread.
II you wish it."
"No. no no." he objected, earnestly.
"Give 1t back to me-"
But even as he demanded it, Bryan
put it in my hands; and spreading it
out-for it had been crumpled to a pei
let in the invalid's clutch-I was about
to humor him. when the superscription
caught my eye and held it.
The envelope bore the name and ad.
dress: Donald McNish, Taylor's Ho-
tel. New York City, U. s. A."
