that he had been short in his accounts
many thousands at his fathers bank;
gambling debts; and in making no eff
fort to replace the loss, he was soon
found out by his brother, who seemed
only too glad to dishonor him. He
was given his choice: to sign over his
million, due him a year later (for at
this time the father was dead, or go
to prison. The scandal of the affair
had no weight with his brother; he

his lights, the Arab was only paying
coin for coin. But for the girl, Ry-
anne would have accepted the situa-
ton with shrug, to await that mo-
ment when Mahomed, eased by the
sense Of security would naturally re-
lax vigilance. The presence of For
tune changed the whole face of the
affair Mahomed could have his eyes
and heart If he would but spare her.
He musk be patient; he must accept
insults, even physical violence, but
some day he and Mahomed would play
the final round
His past, his foolish, futile past: all
the folliea, all the petty crimes, all
the low designations in which he had
INDUCED, seemed trooping about his
camel, hooking and gibbering at him.
Why hadn't he lived clean like Jones
there? Why hadn't he fought temp
tation as he had fought men? Enyi-
ronment was no excuse; bringing-up
offered no palliation; he had gone
wrong simply because his inclinations
had been wrong. On the other hand,
back to a decent living His mother
had died during his childhood, and
her influence had left no impression.
His father had been a money-maker
consumed by the pleasure Of building
up pyramids of gold. He had never
reasoned with his youngest-born; he
had paid his bills without protest or
reproach; it was so much a month to
be written down in the expense ac-
count. And the first-born had been
his natural enemy since the days Of
the nursery. Still, he could not acquit
himself; his own arraignment was as
keen as any judge could have made
Strong as he was physically, brilliant
as he was mentally, there was a NOR
tai weakness in his blood; and search
as he might the history of his ances-
tors, their lives shed no light upon
his own.
In stating that his face had been
granted that dubious honor and con-
Germ of the perpetrators of the rogues'
gallery, he had merely given rein to
a seizure of soul-bitterness. But there
was truth enough in the statement

portrait for any gallery given over to
rogues. And he hadn't worried much
over the moral problem confronting
him, that the way of the transgressor
Is hard. 1t was only when love rent
the veil of his faulty that he saw
himself as he really was.
Love! He gazed ahead at Fortune
under the MAMMAL. That q guileless
young girl as she was should enchain
him! That the sight of her should
always send a longing into his soul
to go back and begin over! His jaws
hardened. Why not? Why not try
to recover some Of the crumbs Of the
fine things he had thrown away? At
least enough to permit him to go
again among his fellows without con-
stantly looking behind to note If he
were followed? By the Lord Harry!
once he was out of this web OF his
own weaving, he would live straight;
he swore that every dollar hereafter
put in his pocket should be an honest
one. Fortune could never be his wife.
He came to this fact without any
first place, he knew he had not
touched her heart; she had been friend
ly; and now even her friendship hung
by a thread. All right. The love he
bore her was going to be his salvation
Just the same; and at this moment
he was deadly in earnest.
It was after nine when they were
ferried across the two canals, the

below Serapeum. The three weary

tween responsibility and the lack
of it.
If a disrepUtable man or woman
behaves in a saloon, the police have
no right to draw a line between that
disrepUtable person and a reputable
person who also behaves.
So far as moral impulses go there
isn't much real difference between
the well-gowned women of all grades
of responsibility on the avenues and
the women of all grades of respect
ability in the less pretentious parts
of the city.
Equal rights for all and special

WHAT KIND OF WOMEN
e. A saloon is a good place for women
to keep out of, but when it comes
to the rights of individual woman
has as much right to go into saloon
as a man has.
And if one woman has a right to
enter a saloon, any other woman has
the same right.
If welI-dressed prostitutes are per-
mitted to go into the supposedly
high-class saloons and cafes of the
loop district, then the pOOrly-dressed
and lower-dOwn prostitutes Of the So
called slum districts have an equal
right to go into the saloons in their
neighborhOOd.
The police have no right to pass
upon who shall and who shall not go
into saloons, or what saloons they
may go provided they are
adults and there is no law prohibiting
them from doing what other people
are permitted to do.
There is too much regulation of
the poor by the police outside of the
law. There is too much police-made
law which never was enacted by a
representative legislative body.
It is all wrong for the police, under
orders from the mayor, to say that
respectable people may go into sa-
looms and that people who are not
respectable shall not go into saloons.
It isn't safe to permit the police to
decide who is respectable and who
isn't.
For that matter it is dangerous for
any Of us to assume to determine be-
