were addresses by Kimball, Chase,

censuring the presiding officer for hav-

advice Of the senate, and especially for
naming her Barbara Esther" the first
part OF the name being plainly to con-
ciliate the "drys' by compliment to

man who humbled him, even In the

Sensations.

Lydia stopped for a moment in the
hall, after closing the door behind her,
| to pull herself together for the ordeal
that was still to come. She was
trembling, weakness had assailed
her. She had left Yvonne's presence
in dazed, unsettled condition OF
mind, There was lapse of some kind
that she could neither account for nor
describe even to herself. The black
velvet coat that formed part of her
trig suit, hung Imply in her hand,
dragging along the floor as she moved
with hesitating steps in the direction
Of James Brood's study. A siekening
estimate of her own strength Of pur-
pose confronted her. She was sud-
denly afraid of the man who had
always been her friend. Somehow
she felt that he would turn upon her
and rend her, this man who had al
ways been so gentle and considerable
and who had killed things!
Ranjab appeared at the head of the
stairs. She waited for his signal to
ascend, somehow feeling that Brood
had sent him forth to summon her.
Her hand sought the stair rail and
gripped it tightly. Her lips parted In
a stiff smile. Now she knew that she
was turning coward. that she longed
to put of the meeting until tomor.

through her.

were kindly inquiring. "Sahib say you
are to rest" There was pause. ITO.

She started. Had he read the thought
that was In her mind?
