motive that had brought her into the
library. The angry hum of voices had

patience and curiosity she was anxious
to know what was going on. Greater
than all else, however. was her desire
to be with Wright. She thought that
by appearing she could bring matters
to a conclusion and carry on with her
the man she loved. Now that she was
in the library and Wright had said
that he was ready to go whenever she
was. David Kerr's daughter forgot

Wright was on the point of again

heard the faint cries Of newsboys far
down the street. Nearer and nearer
came the boys. Louder and louder
we're their cries. Street sales in Bel
mont were so small that the little
urchins who sold papers to chance
customers were never very noisy. An
unusual clamor on their part beto-
kened some extraordinary piece Of
news. Their shouts at last began to
attract the attention of others in the
room. Kerr. Kendall and Hayes looked

enough to know that they must be in

This direct threat was more than
he could bear. Rising from his chair
and leaning across the table the pub
fisher shook his fist in Kerr's face and
told him just what he thought of the
situation. Remembering who was on
the other side of the door he was fac

his low tones he put all the fire Of his
honest indignation.

the world. In her eyes there was
nothing of doubt. She put into her
look all the love and confidence she
had promised would always be his.
With Wright 1t was far otherwise. No
matter what he said. the fact could
not be kept from her. She would in

page that day were the words, Owned

A single movement of his head
showed his assent.
"Oh. you coward" Her disgust was
overpowering. The withering con-

equaled by her look of scorn. He

OF impatience she stopped him.
