NEW YORK. n. Y. Feb. 1.-THE

throughout the week, with little
change in values. The ominoHs pOliti-
cal situation which suddenly devel-
oped out Of the recent German diplo-

Mrs. Kelly was sitting with her back
to the great mullioned windows; she
could not, therefore, see her husband,
who seemed to have Just walked across
the terrace and to have paused a
moment, with his hand on the open
window, before entering the room.
Whether he had heard what his wife
was saying, I did not know; certain
it is that his gaze looked very white
and set.

Kelly innoeently, seeing my husband
put away Rags collar the other day
viii be glad to have 1t later on, when
all this horrid business is over. You
must tell him that we have got it

I all but uttered an exclamation then
1t seemed too horrible to hear this

Gently denouncing her own husband
with every word she uttered I looked
up at the mOtIOnless figure still stand
ing in the window, Skin o. Ny Tooth,
who sat Immediately facing it, seemed
to make an almost imperceptible sign
of warning. Mr.. Kelly then retired
as silently as he had come.
Two minutes later he entered the
room by the door. He seemed abso-
out his hand, to Skin O. Ny Tooth,
who took 1t without the slightest
hesitation; then Mr.. Kelly turned to
his wife and said quietly:
YOu will forgive me, won't you,
dear, if I take Mr.. Mulligan into my
study? There are one or two points
want to discuss with him over a
cigar"
''Ohl I'll run away" she said gaily

I am so sorry! Well, goodbye, and
mind you bring better news next time"
She was gone, and we three men
were left alone. l offered to leave the
room, but Mr.. Kelly motioned me to
stay.
1.-The servants would wonder" he
said Jelly. "and it really does not
matter"
Then he turned to Skin O. My Tooth
and said quietly:

for the express purpose OF setting a
trap for my wife; and she fell into it,
poor SOUL not knowing that she
was damning her own husband OF
