about to be released from prison after
serving his third term. It is matter Of
history that one member of every genera

member has always been criminal. Jim
and his wayward son, Ted Borden, are
the only known living representatives of
the Borden kin. Max Lamar, detective,

THIRD INSTALLMENT
"TWENTY YEARS AGO"

1.-THE Red Circle! God help us!"
muttered the nurse once more, as
June looked at her, dazed. incredulous.
'You know about the Red Circle?
Won't you please tell me?" she en-
treated. "You must know, because 1
can see you recognize it. Don't you
see how terrible it is for me? Mary,
won't you tell me?"
The nurses arm frightened around
the slim young body. Unconsciously
she lapsed into the soothing, automatic
patting that she had used so often to
put the baby June to sleep.
II don't know, lamb. I don't know
anything, precious" she stammered.
Mary's face took on the haggardness
of one who is awakened from what
seemed to be a gruesome nightmare,
only to find that it is a grim truth.
She turned from the kneeling figure
and went quickly through the door and
down the stairway, one hand pressed
to her throat.
June looked after her, stunned by
swift, certain fear. Then, slowly she
rose from her knees, walked over to
her dressing table and sank into the
little chair before the mirror.
In moment she had decided. Hum
ming softly, she ran down the steps
and into the garden.
Down a side path, in little clump
of bushes was stone bench. Sitting
on this bench, swaying to and fro,
with tightly clasped hands, was Mary.
June reached her side, breathless
and alarmed. AS she approached
Mary looked up in piteous supplication.
Don't ask me, precious! Don't ask
me, dear! 1 don't know. / couldn't
tell you, blessed" she moaned, and
raised her hands to ward off June's
embrace.
The girl sat down and put loving
arm across her shoulders.

love them" she began slowly, always

on them when I ran downstairs-it
was safer than the bed. 1t was safer
than the bed thought it was safer
than the bed," she repeated incoher-
emily.
"Mary-Mary!" June shook her
slightly. Don't forget any Of it now
you mustn't, do you hear? You
mustn't! You left off where you went
downstairs"
"And when I was going out Of the
room," continued the old woman, talk
ing as If she were in trance, Mrs.
Borden must "a heard her Jim's voice
downstairs, cause she kinda tried to
pull up out of the chair and then when
was halfway down the steps heard
shot and something falling.
Downstairs, in the barroom 1t was
all shouting men, with women crying
on their shoulders and little children
hanging frightened to their mothers.
And I heard big Jim Borden asking
Jake about his missus and then jump
ing up the steps three at time with
a look like the smile of heaven on his
stone-cut face.
Mr.. Travis and I began to be afraid,
thinking of that woman who loved him
so, laying unconscious in bed upstairs
and the baby. &c., when no one was
looking, 1 ran out on the street-and
there I found him-Mr. Travis-shot
through the heart!
Fl remember while I was there I
heard someone come out heavy on
the porch of the roadhouse and kind
of stagger across the road. He must
"a passed close, because it seemed to
me I heard the weak, little wall of
a newborn child. But I didn't notice
much, just then.
81 just wandered back into the sa-
loon like 1 was in a nightmare and
stumbled up the steps, falling over my
skirts and picking myself up; until I
got into the bedroom. There, in the
middle of the room, hanging over the
table, with her eyes CLASSY staring and
her chin dropped, was Jim Borden's
wife-dead! Over in the bed laid Mrs.
Travis. still unconscious, with baby
beside her.
1T was hours before l got the
strength to get up from the chair
again. 1t was only when remembered
how queer it was that the baby in the
grip didn't cry that jumped up sud-
den and went to get it. 1t was gone!
The grip was empty. There was moth
ing but the dent it's little body had
made in the soft, woolly things-and

broke into her dream of rest. Startle&
she raised her head.
She saw a black sleeve, tightly
gripped by a white hand in which O
vivid circle of blazing red had sudden
1y been reborn. Mortified, she traced
the flaming mark with trembling
forefnger.
Then the tension snapped and she
sank to the floor, a whimperingly help
less girl, with both hands pressed to
her lips to muff1e her frightened sob
bling.
Abruptly June got to her feet, and
tenderly lifted the old woman up be-
side her.

as I tell you," she commanded, "be-

they watched, with unbelieving eyes,
the ring of scarlet faded to a deep
rose, then paled to pink. Almost i'm
mediately it vanished, leaving an I'M
blemished white surface.
At sight of it June bent and kissed
the spot in paroxysm of JOY.
It's gone-it's gone!" she cried in
hysteric glee, and wrapped Mary in a
crushing bear hug. That's a good
sign. l believe in signs, don't you
all right, in this gown? Do look pref
ty and fascinating and-?''
Don't be SO gay!" pleaded the old
woman, fearfully. Somehow, it seems
so awful for you to be laughing just
now, and thinking you're going to get
the best Of that man. I"
June reached down grasped her
wrinkled, trembling hands and started
whirling her about in a mad, merry
circle, laughing at her GREATNESS ex-
postulations, the while.
Suddenly, in their wild gyrations,
her elbow struck a pedestal in the cor
ner of the room. It swayed perilously
for a second, then toppled to the floor
the large case upon it smashing to
thousand fragments.
The old woman eyed the shattered
bits with superstitious misgiving
cts an omen!" she muttered half
to herself. "See what you've done!"
ooh, everything's an omen to you,
you sweet old calamity croaker!"
ridiculed June, have Yama clean it
up-there's dear. And Mary, peek
down through the banisters and watch
me disarm the suspicion of Mr.. Lamar
the great crime specialist"
And laughing at the Mortified express
sion on the old woman's face the mis-
chief-possessed girl darted down the
stairway and into the library.
81 am SO glad you came" she said
simply, as she took Lamar's hand.
when I asked you ! was afraid you
never would-you're so busy-and SO
important"
Lamar laughed, but somehow there
was not keen enjoyment in the sound
that came from his lips.
L want you to tell me such lots of
things" she began enthusiastically,

Nobody knows-nobody Will ever

Look" June broke in with great
agitation "That man Handing on the
walk, staring up at the housed"
''Who is he?" asked the nurse quick
ly, alarmed at the girls trepidation.
Its Max Lamar-the crime special

"A detectives! Oh, my precious-a

when they're after you! And it's you
he's after-he's found out-he's found
you QUIT"
"Hush!" June commanded, placing
her hand over the old woman's mouth.
"He couldn't have found out-he's COM
ing to see me. I asked him to the
other day, at the prison. We're mag
lining things, you and both of us
and it isn't good to do that. Come
with me-"
Selling her hand June dragged her
over the lawn toward the side porch.
In spite of her attempted bravado she
felt trapped.
"Get yourself together, mumsie,"
Mary heard June say, gayly, someone
is coming to see us-to see me-" she
emphasized. "Do you remember Mr..
Lamar-the crime specialist that we
met at the prison? He's coming up
the walk now. Will you tell him I'll
be down in minute"
Pulling at the fastenings of her
morning dress she hurried to her
boudoir. She would put on something
fetching-and arrange her hair differ
emily. A hundred ways and means
of fascinating and hoodwinking this
very calm and assured young man
crowded into her brain.
Standing at the door of her room
was Mary, her eyes wide with fear.
"You mustn't go down, darling" she
urged nervously.
"You dear old foolish!" June an

She leaned forward and pressed
her laughing face close to the mirror
of her dessing table. A little, blown
wisp Of hair tumbled into her eyes.
Impatiently, she brushed it back then

over on the bed was the other one
Jim Borden's-a girl it was, and ours
had been boy.'
Her voice broke off with a sudden
dry gurgle in her throat. AS June
shrank away from her, a dawning hor-
ror in her eyes, she stretched out two
worn, trembling hands in an effort to
draw the girl back.
you see, it must have been like
this: Jim Borden had leaped into that
room with his heart all bursting with
love and pride, and he found his wife
dead before him, lying near the baby
in the grip, and, looking over he saw
the other woman On the bed with her
baby beside her. He took the baby
he thought was his own and went
away-where, no one knew-and I
never found out-till too late"
For a moment there was a silence,
more compelling than sound. Sudden
ly, finging her arms wide, June cried
Historically:
What does it mean? Don't stop
there. Go on! Go on! What are you
trying to make me believer"
ala as LnOugnt pest at the time, !"
Mary went on tonelessly, weary in
heart and body from the purgatory or
deal. "Mr. Travis was dead. When
Mrs. Travis came to, what could I tell

me knew it wasn't hers. It would "a

She didn't know-she doesn't know

"And II am" June gasped out
the words.
Mary looked steadily into her ter
rified eyes and gripped her hands
firmly.
"On the back of Jim Borden's right
hand,' she said heavily, there was a
queer Red Circle-they called him Cir
cle' Jim out there. Just, as later,

"No! No! I don't believe tim
not-Im not" June crumpled into
a sobbing heap at Mary's feet.
Very gently the old woman lifted
her and held her close:
"You are Jim Borden's daughter!"
she declared with a solemnity that
brooked no dispute. Marked with
the crime curse. But we must guard
the secret. She must never know.
Were going to keep the secret,
aren't we, lamb?" Mary was saying.

out of the ruins of the fort.
A cry of triumph went up all
along the French line and the
ardor of the counter-attack was
redoubled. In the meantime an
artillery duel, surprising in in
tensity any previous action of
the war, added to the carnage.
The battle now seems to have
reached a critical point. The as.
saulting forces have recoiled in
the direction of Douaumont,
leaving the'regiments which oc-
cupied the fort cut off and sur
rounded by French troops. The
attacks upon the French left at
Pepper Hill (Cote du Pouvre, }
seemed to have completely fail
ed. However. attacks made re-
peatedly with such heavy masses
as the Germans are constantly
bringing up, it is admitted by
military authorities, are likely to
make further gains, provided the
officers are willing to pay the
price in human life.
There is no exaggerated optim
ism to be found in military cir.
cles here. but the check of the
Germans attacking in such for
midable numbers is regarded by
them as one Of the greatest ach-
ievements of the war, and it is
generally held that events have
taken a turn quite favorable to
the French arms in the last
twenty-four hours.
