THE MfififfOKD DAILY I'KtHUISfl, MedFORU, OHHnON, THUIifcDAY, OCTOHKlt 21, 1000, 1H 4 The Vg) Mask (Continued.) .. ..SYNOPSIS CHAPTER I Jock HUliard, a wealthy New York clubman, hears a mysterious voice singing in the night under his window. II He inserts an advertisement in a personal ccolumn to find the singer. He receives a reply. HI, IV, V, and VI He visits the mysterious singer, but she wears a mask. He falls desperately in love with her, but he has not seen her face. The unknown woman gives her name as Mine. Angot, which is assumed. They have dinner. She refuses to see him again. "This Til agree to take not a penny more than twenty-five hundred my self. We'll go on equal terms. Why," confidently, "besides living like a prince you'll have four hundred to throw away at roulette. Boy. you have never seen Italy; therefore you do not know what beauty is. When swe eventually land at Bellngio. on Lake Como, and I take your Illy white hand In mine and lead you up to the terrace of Villa Serbellonl and' or der tea, then you will realize that you have ouly begun to live gardens, tow ering Alps, the green Lecco on one side and the green Como on the other and Swiss champagne at $1.40 the quart! Eh? "And then." Eillard added, "there's Kitty Killlgrew singing her heart out to a people who can't understand a word she's singing." "Can it be done for twenty-five hun dred!" Merrihew chewed his cigar with sub dued fierceness. He knew very well that he was destined to go to Europe. Kitty Kllligrew, who bad promised to mail the route they were to play and hadn't! "It is written, Dan, that you shall go with me." "We'll settle this argument right here uow." Merrihew drew out a coin. "Call it,'' he cried recklessly. "Heads!" The coin flickered in the light, fell and proved that all money is perverse by rolling under the davenport upon which they were sitting. An amusing hunt followed. They ran their hands over the floor, turned the rug, pulled out the davenport and looked behind, burned innumerable matches and final ly rang for the attendant The situa tion was explained, and he procured a candle. He was ultimately successful. "Here it is, sir." "What is it, bead or tail?" asked Merrihew weakly. "Head, sir," said the attendant. "Keep it," said Merrihew generous ly, even sadly. He never ' got up a game of chance that be did not get the worst of it And now, Italy! All that way from home! "Boy, bring up a bot tle of '00." "And the lady in the mask?' asked Merrihew as they at length stood up. "I must relegate her to the fog she came out of. But it would be a fright ful thing if If He hesitated to form the words. " But Merrihew had no such scruple. "If the silver and plate were missing when the Sandfords return?" "Oh, bosh! It's all some Joke, and Tm the butt of it She was In that bouse by the same authority she rode the horse." "A woman of that sort would have no difficulty in hoodwinking the stable men," declared Merrihew. "By the way," he continued, "receiv- ed a postal from Kitty this morning from Gibraltar. Fine trip. Visited the gun galleries and the antique furniture shops. Says no sign of prima donna as yet, but believes her to be on board. O'Mally's on the water wagon. But Kitty aggravates me." '"What has she done now, refused you by marconlgraph?" "No, but she promised- me her ad dress." "Address ber care Cook's, Florence, Rome, Venice. It's the popular mall box, of. Europe, and If she has clyon Lure the By HAROLD MAC GRATH Copyright. 1908. by Iht Merrill Co. Bobbi- them the address they will forward." "That helps considerably. I'm glad there's nno Cook which can be relied on." "In the morning I'll arrange for pas sage. We'll try the Celtic." "I'll leave the business end of the trip to you." "The first Saturday In March, then. If we can get booking. That will be In less man two weess. - ' in the loony or the ciud as they were about to enter the coat room Hil lard ran into one of sevcrnl gentlemen Issuing. 'Tardon me(" he said, stepping aside. "Xon importa!" said the stranger, with a graceful wave of the hands. Hillard looked quickly into the gen tleman's face. "I am clumsy." he said in Italian. Then the other stared at him and smiled. For a moment there was a brief tableau, in which each took the other's measure and noted the color of the eyes. The man was an exceedingly handsome Italian, for all that a scar ran from his cheek to his chin. It was all over in a moment, and Hillard and Merrihew proceeded to the street. "Handsome duffer," was Mcrrihew's comment. "But you never can tell a man by his looks. Gaze on me, for in- I ! stance." "Go home!" Hillard slapped him jovially on the shoulder. "Home! Ah. yes! But shall I have a home to go to when I get back? You have roped me In nicely. My poor little twenty-five hundred! But Swiss champagne at $1.40 the quart! Well, every cloud has its lining." As Hillard never received any an swer to his personal, he discontinued It Truly, she had returned to the fog out of which she bad come. But it was no less difficult for him to take up the daily affairs again. What mystery veiled her? Whither had she gone? Giovanni was delighted when he heard the news. He would go, too, and act as valet to the siguor and his friend till they put out for Rome. Then, .of course, he would be obliged to leave them. Occasionally Hillard would reason with him regarding his deadly projects. But when a Latin declares that he has seen through blood, persuasions, arguments, en treaties, threats do not prevail. He comforted himself with the opinion, however, that Giovanni's hunt would come to no successful end. "You will surely fall Into the bands of the police." "What God wills comes true. But by this time they will have forgotten me." . "But your man might bo dead." "He is not dead. - If be were some thing would tell me." "It is a bad business, and 1 wish you no luck." Giovanni smiled easily. Wishes sel dom Interfere 'with any one. "I will double your wages," said Hil lard, "if you will go 'Where I go and return with me when 1 come back to America." A deprecating movement "Money? It Is nothing. I am Tich after my bind." , ' "Are you still In the church?" "I confess regularly once a "week. Ob, I am a good Catholic." I "Take yourself off. I. am displeased with you." ' It was a drizzling, foggy morning when they drove down to the boat But the atmospheric effects made no 1 Impression on the volatile Merrihew. And he bad an eye for all things, from the baskets of fruit and flowers, mes I sengers with late orders from the stores, repeated farewells, to the squalling babies In the steerage. I At 4 o'clock they were on the high , seas, heading for the Azores. Hillard I was dreaming, and Merrihew. was stu diously employed over a booklet on . how to speak Italian in one day. Glo I vanni, wbo had been arranging the . luggage, came up on deck. Ho had two packets of letters and telegrams. One he gave to Merrihew and the other to his master. Hillard found among his a bulky en velope postmarked Naples. Naples! He sat up. It had been addressed to the bouse and the address typewritten. "Look at this!" ho cried. "Good Lord!" Dan gasped, his feet coming down to the deck. Hillard was holding up for his in spection a crumpled black silk mask. (To he continued.)
