How are you, Emile?" D'Este
growled, throwing himself into a
chair.
"Oh, so, so! Who was the

THAT was Victor Girard,'

"Ah, I-see. You propose to set

D'Este sat down and attempted

CHAPTER |.
Two Letters

WV
Il want one million francs."
Monsieur the Count Raoul D'Este
reread the sentence in the letter
which he had received that morn
ing for perhaps the twentieth
time. The contents were type
written, and the signature, Victor
Girard, as well.
Yet the name Victor Girard was
one that was quite we'll known to
the count, for he had receive a
letter of the same sort, signed in
the same way, almost every day
for the past four weeks.
The earlier letters had only an
nounced the writer's desire for
the money. The later ones in
formed him that the said Girard
would within a short time indi-
cate the method by which the sum
was to be paid over to him.
Presently the count utterad an
exclamation. "I'll call up Lefev-
re-" he said, angrily. This thing
must stop"
He sprang from his chair, rang
up the project of police, Monsieur
Etienne Lefevre, and at once ex-
planned the circumstances which
had prompted his call. The project
agreed to join him within half an
hour.
The Count D'Este was a small
man, perhaps so years of age, but
he looked somewhat older.
The appointments of the room
in which he sat indicated him to
be man of more than ordinary
wealth. Yet until his marriage
with a widow of large wealth, an
American, some five years before,
he had been distinguished far
more for his debts than for his
ability to pay them. His sole
asset had been his title.
This he brought into the great
market for such commodities.
New York, where he was able
presently to exchange 1t for Mrs.
Randall and fortune estimated
at some two million dollars. Mrs.
Randall, or as she thus became,
the Countess D'Este. having died
within the past year, the count
was left with what was, for Paris,
a large fortune.
Luckily for him they had no
children. The count himself had
nephew, Emile, who was de-
pendent upon him, and Mrs. RAN
dali had insisted upon having
with her during the last few
months Of their married life her
niece, Grace Ellicott. The latter
had upon her aunt's death been
left penniless; she was an orphan
with no near relatives.
The young girl had supposed, at
the time OF her aunt'sf death that
the latter had made provision for
her in will. Great was her sur
prise, therefore, upon being in
formed by her uncle that no such
provision had been made.
The count, however, had made
her a regular though small al
lowance, and opposed all her sug-
gestions that she should return
Ito America.
AS he finished telephoning,
Grace Ellicott came into the
room.
Grace Ellicott had Just passed
out Of her teens. and was q girl
of unusual beauty and charm.

seriously, here n q letteru i6inich.

CHAPTER III.
The Count Has q Caller.

About the time Count D'Este
was having his unpleasant inter-
view with Grace Ellicott a man of
somewhat unusual appearance
might have been seen strolling
carelessly along the Avenue Vic
tor Hugo.
He was a tall man, and his
height was accumulated by his
long gray overcoat. He had a soft
black hat under which appeared
a mop of curly dark hair. His
heavy eyebrows, dark mustache
and pointed Vandyke beard sug-
gested the art student, or possibly
the professional man, but the
roughness of his clothes and his
general air of careless assurance
rendered such O conclusion inn
probable.
As he strolled along the avenue
he seemed to be observing the
few persons he passed. but II was
only when he arrived n th6n
