Gays racing He persuaded one kitchen
maid in Park Lane and another at Fair
fax Hall that he had waited all his life
to discover woman he could love devot-
eddy. 1t was a most important discov-
cry when he unearthed In a dingy hotel
the man whom Philip had dismissed for
tampering with the locked portmanteau.
From this worthy he first heard of the
quaint adjunct to the belongings of the
young millionaire, and judicious inquiry
soon revealed that there was hardly a
servant in Philips employ who did not
credit the Gladstone bag with being the
repository of the millionalre's fortunes.
Ordinary people will credit any non
sense where diamonds are concerned.
Even an educated criminal like Victor
Grenier believed there might be some
foundation for the absurd theory which
found ready credence among the do
mestios.
He never made the error OF planning
burglary or adroit robbery whereby
the bag might come into his possession.
II IL did contain diamonds and especially
If 1t contained unique specimens. it was
absolutely useless to him. But his vitals
yearned for Anson's gold, and the ques-
ton he asked himself in every unoccu-
pied moment was how he might sue
coed in getting some portion of it into
his own pocket
One day quaint notion entered his
mind, and the more he thought of il the
more 1t dominated him. He was tall
and well made. IL slim In figure and his
face and never lost the Elasticity given
1t by his stage experience.
He had only heard Philips voice once
but his features and general appearance
were now quite familiar to him and he
undertook a series of experiments with
clothing and makeup to ascertain If he
could personate Arson sufficiently well

There are reasons Hunter was

TO-DAY's INSTALLMENT

TO-DAY'S INSTALLMENT.
Arson was the bane Of his life, His
stepfather was Ansou's uncle, and the
old idiot recently found out certain
facts concerning the life led by his step
son that caused family rupture. His
mother endeavored to patch up matters
with Ill success, and the baronet was
intent on finding his sisters son and
atonlng to him FOR years OF neglect by
making him his heir.
Lady Louisa concealed nothing Of this
from her scapeErace son. She hoped
to Brighten him by the threatened loss
OF supplies. But neither fright nor ha-
tired could bring him to leave London
and settle down to a quiet life in Dew
onshire, when, perhaps, the elderly nat
uralist's III OF indignation might grad
ually wear itself out
At tabs crisis came his discovery OF
Evelyn Atherley, and mad desire to
win her affections He even dreamed Of
persusding her to marry him. and by
this means succeed in rehabilitating
himself with Sir Philip Morland
The girl was well born. Mrs. Athsr-
ley was Lord Naustone's hatf-sister
and. although his lordship had ruined
himself and his relations by his ex-
trayagance. the match was in every
other respect suitable.
He was not content with the slow
formula OF seeking an acquaintance in
the ordinary way. Accustomed to speed.

Grenier and resented the lstters CON
domination OF his suggestion OF mock
accident. In which LanRdon should fig,
ure AS tho gentemanly rescuer as a
ready means OF winning the girls crate
full regard.
The result was worse than failure,
He was Wild with himself, Wild with
Grenier, and reached higher pitch Of
fury when Mason surlily refused to say
what grievance he harhored against An

suddenly. "Your brandy is too strong
for my head, Grenier Can and see me
in the morning"
The astute rogue whom he addressed
raised no objection to his departure.
He instantly embraced Langdon's atti-
tude in his wider horizon.
Yes" he agreed 'Iet us sleep on 1t.
We win all be better able to discuss
matters more clearly Tomorrow.
Thenceforth the fiat in SALISBURY
avenue became a spiders web into which
the flies that buzzed around Philip S
life we're drawn one by one. squeezed
dry OF their store of information, and
cast forth again unconscious Of the
plot being woven against their master.
Within a month, Grenier knew An
sons habits, his comings and goings,
his bankers. his brokers, many OF his
investments, the names OF his chief EN-
ployees. the members OF his yachts
crew, the topography of his Sussex es-
tate. Nothing was too trivial, no de-
tail too unimportant. to escape a note
undecipherable to others and a niche in
a retentive memory.

Grenier. cool as an icicle, saw unex-
pected vistas opening before him. He
must be wary and collected. Here was
the man who would pay, and the man
who would dare all things.
Mason's truculent determination gave
hope even to Langdon. He, too, gifted
with a certain power Of vicious reason
ing, saw that this news all might prove
useful. But he was afraid OF such bold
utterances, and hoped to achieve his
purposes without binding himself even
tactly to the commission of a crime.

The criticism of Senator Cammins
