the words that rose to her lips.
Her face, thin and drawn with
WEAKNESS and pain, was gentler
than usual.
Yes" she said, there are
other things than hatred to ex-
plain that attitude"
Don Luis was dumfounded. He
did not quite understand the
meaning of the reply; but Flor
ence,s tone of voice disconnected
him beyond measure, and he also
saw that Forence's eyes no long
err wore their usual scornful ex.
preston and that they were filled
with smiling charm. And it was
the first time that Florence had
smiled in his presence.
"Speak, speak, | entreat you'll
he stammered.
II mean to say that there is an
other feeling which explains cold
ness, mistrust, fear, and hostility.
1t is not always those whom we
detest that we avoid with the
greatest fear; and, if we avoid
them, it is often because we are
afraid Of ourselves, because we
are ashamed, because we rebel
and want to resist and want to
forget and cannot"
She stopped; and, when he
wildly stretched out his arms to
her, as if beseeching her to say
more and still more, she NODDED
her head, thus telling him that
she need not 60 on speaking for
him to read to the very bottom of
her soul and discover the secret
which she kept hidden there.
Don Luis staggered on his feet.
He was intoxicated with happi-
ness, almost suffered physical
pain from that unexpected hap
piness. After the horrible min
utes through which he had passed
amid the impressive surroundings
of the Old Castle, it appeared to
him to admit that such extraor-
binary bliss could suddenly
blossom forth in the commonplace
setting Of that room at a hotel,
He could have longed for space
around him, forest mountains,
moonlight, a radiant sunset, all
the beauty and all the poetry of
the earth. With one rush, he had
reached the very acme OF happi-
ness. F1orence's very life came
before him, from the instant Of
their meeting to the tragic mo-
ment when the cripple, bending
over her and seeing her eyes filled
with tears, had shouted:
"She's crying She's crying
What madnessl But / know your
secret, Florence! And you're
crying Florence, Florence, you
yourself want to die!"
1t was a secret of love, a pas
sionate impulse which, from the
first day, had driven her oil trem-
bling toward Don Luis. Then it
had bewildered her, filling her
with fear, appeared to her as a
betrayal of Marie and Sauverand
and, by turns urging her toward
and drawing her away from the
man whom she loved and whom
she admired for his heroism and
Loyalty, rending her with remorse
and overwhelming her as though
it were q crime, had ended by
delivering her, : feeble and dis
abled, to the diabolical influence
of the villain who coveted her.
Don Luis did not know what to
do, did not know in what words
to express his rapture. His lips
trembled. His eyes filled with
tears. His nature prompted him
to take her in his arms, to kiss
her as a child kisses, full on the
lips, with a full heart. But a
feeling Of intense respect par
alyzed his ~yearning. And, over
come with emotion, he fell at
Norence's feet, stammering
words Of love and alteration.

to understand my compassion for
such a monster. But, some years

came attached to him because of
his wretchedness, his physical
weakness, and all the symptoms
of death which he bore upon him
even then. He had the oppOr-
tunity of doing me a few services;
and, though he led a hidden life,
which worried me in certain re-
spects, he gradually and without
my knowing it acquired a consid-
cradle influence over me
IL believed in his insight, in
his will, in his absolute devotion !;
and, when the Mornington case
started, it was he, as I now real
ize, who guided my actions and,
later, those of Naston Sauverand.
1t was he who compelled me to
practice lying and deceit, per-
suading me that he was working
for Marie Fauville's safety. 1t
was he who inspired us with such
suspicion of yourself. and who
taught us to be so silent, where
he and his affairs were con-
cerned, that CASTOR Sauverand
did not even dare mention him
in his interview with you.

Florence did not finish her
sentence. Her eyes had encount-
cred Don Luis's eyes; and she re-
ceived a deep impression that he
was not listening to what she
said. He was looking at her;
and that was all. The words she
uttered passed unheard.
To Don Luis any explanation
concerning the tragedy itself
mattered nothing, so long as he
was not enlightened on the one
point that interested him, on

himself, thoughts OF aversion, OF
contempt. outside that, anything

RAISE CITY SALARIES
Must Be Done in Next Budget-Out
of Question Now.

Higher salaries for employees of the
city are being demanded in some of
the departments, and raises of salary
probably will be granted after the --rst
of the year. The city attorney Is now
drawing a new ordinance affecting
wages for the employees of the water
works plant.
For the other departments. an al
lowance for more salary to the en-
ployes will probably be provided for
in the new budget.
ut is my opinion" Mayor House
said today, that all the employees of
the city should have more money
Their wages are out of proportion to
sums drawn by employees working for
private corporations, but the wages for
the employe in the various depart
ments for the current year are already
fixed, and cannot be changed. We
have no power to spend more money
than there is to be spent. The pro-
portion of he city's income to Re
spent in salaries in the various depart
ments is fixed by the terms of the
charter; the budget for the year now
in effect is settled, and there is no
way to change it until it goes out of
effect at the end of the year. We
are going to make our new budget
next month. and 1t is my hope that
adv anced salaries can then be ar
ranged, effective next year.
1T is nonsense for employees 70 talk
about putting into salaries the money
that has been spent for swimming
pools and a comfort station. The mon
ey for the comfort station was appro-
priated in 1915. The money for all
city improvements was appropria ted
some time ago. and even If those i'm
provementS had not been made the
money for them would not be vail
able for salaries, because it was not
appropriated for salaries"
