flIB END OF K1S TOL I By JA1C3XJAPP BEEVR tOofTTlfht, Vm by Anortot Pre Aeaools, ; C CHAPTER V. Wltn ITieluton to think was to Jilen, ' tad to plan was to act,- Ueuutdea hasty - Journwy to New Turk and put his affairs thnr into nooewary sliie, Thn to Cleveland, tt mad certain that hit ooninaot with l.nurn Leonard had been carried ont. Then ht weut to tee Lint Tsnnaut attain. . "I cm do nothing" b wild, ia iuww to her took of iuqulry. "1 thei go ewey end wait null! hit trm it oat Tbn perhaps I can help Mm." " " ; "1 had not expected much," she an vered. "I foil how difficult it would bo. i But I kin glad you have tried, and 1 am terry that you art going away, 1 had hoped you would reinalu her. where I thould see you sometiuwe. It will be a long whilt to wait" For a moment hit determination wa Yered. If h ramaintd beside her, what opportunities might not tint bringf Tali thought bad recurred to him again and again. It would not ttay down, and the fear that h might yield to it In tht end made him only tht mora da tennlned in hit plan. Ha would rnaka It impossible to he near her, unDotatbie that he thould do anything however much b might be tempted through thee long year to liwwn George's "chance" in any way. In theet yeara love might di and lore be born again. Without effort or tht exercise of roll tion on hit parti by only remaining near her; by doing the offioea that a friend might; by steadfast but unobtrusive de votion, might not a change be wrought? And if it were that wrought would ha sot hate been unfaithful to bit brother! Muse? Would h not be a tupplanterf With other men the temptation might have been ttrong, but to him it wat not to. For if nuder turh circntnttancee bar lore came to him it wonld not be satisfying, not baring been fairly won in a fair field. Ha would take no ad Vantage of ber nor of him that other who bad won her lov from him before. And to h answered her gently, at though speaking to a child: "It will not be to long. Yon art both young yet Yon will atill be young when he comet back." "Yet; yon are not very old yet yonr telf." 8he trolled at him sadly at the went ont "Yon art not to old at we thall be then, and you look to much like George tonigbtat he did when ha wat boy. Wbyl" the cried, with a little ttart of eurpriee, "I did not notice be fore; yon have had your beard and innt- tacbe taken off. iou do look to much like George." After tbti they naturally fU into quiet, friendly talk of old timet when they had been just three friends together -and keeping away from tad or danger. . out topics, tbey talked on until Chaltner felt mora at home with her than he had with any woman for yean. Lent like a wanderer ha felt and more at if Ufa might yet hare tome purpose in it than ha had lino that long ago timt when Lina Ten nan t had tald ttut the cared more for bit brother than for him. Yet now, jnst at there wat beginning to be Value in life in tlila life again, be wat deliberately making ready to go away and leave it nil. Twenty-four hourt later Chalmers wat back at the prison again. It wat "after hours," and George Chalmers, with the thousand and a half of other wretched inmatet who were houwd within tin gloomy walla, wat locked securely in hit own narrow cell. It wat against all ruins, but by the net of a liberal foa Chaltneri overcame the templet of the guard and wat ad mitted not only to the prison, but taken straight to where bit brother wat, What place the prison wat at night Tier npon tier of celle; corridor after com dor; and all built np of solid, furbid'ting masonry that teemed meant to outlast the destroying hand of time Itself. The lights burned dimly in the tomblike balls; the stlunce wat heavy, ominous, except when broken by the lnlmrtxi breathing of men sleeping on com fort- less cots behind the grated bars, and now and then to this was added the moans of one, the corset of another and tht regular footfall of the guards as tney paced tboir rounds. Cbalmen followed bis conductor through thit dreary place, and paused only when they had reached the upper most tier, almost the farthest cell. Then the guard stopped, unlocked and threw open a heavy, grated door, and motioned him to enter. If the oorridora had seemed tomblike this seemed the veritable tomb itself, dug In the solid rock. Bnt it wat only the home, safe, snug and secure, that the state had provided for one of her erring tons. Chalmers entered, and at he did to slipped another bill into the guard's band and motionod him away. The man nodded, closed the grating behind him, turned the key and went back along tht corridor. r CHAPTER VI. "Remain until J come, and remember you ore alwayt Ogden Clmlmeri." George Chalmers tat upon hit cot half dressed, "Vftn tieoa pima ttatlr H Via alA mvu3. Uy. "Yes, at I promised," answered the Other; "and I can help you now." , "You don't mean that you have se cured ft pardon," returned the younger man, with sudden interest , ''"No, but l can help you now; move quick and ask no questions. Put on my Clothot." "liut what will you do? What if tht stuarlbomat'lLHwir " "Merer mind me, Tht guard will not dart tuakt trouble, lit hat already broken his order In bringing tut here. Dress and wa can talk afterward. At ht took he wat already diverting himself of bit clothing and helping to place them npon hit brother, When thit wat dona ha draw on a portion of tht oonviot i drest and tat down npon tb tldt of tht cot "Now look at we," ht tald. "No on could tay that I am not you; and yon tembl exactly tbt man who Just camt in her.' Yon are a free uin ont with tht guard whan ht owes." , "But what will baoomt of your "Hart no trouble" about that They cannot harm m. But yon must lake my nam." Ht spoke low and hurriedly, but every word waa distinct and forcible, at If ht had ttudlad how to tay tht most in tha briefest poaxlult tuna. "Takt my keys, go to my room at tha hotel and open my trunks. Examine all my papers, they will tell you how to put youreelf In possession of my fortune. You will, find full instructions. Go to tht City of Mexico. You will And good opportunities therai tngagt in business; do tht best yon can and remain until 1 coma, and remember you art always Ogden Chalmera." Qeorm (rasped hit brother'! band. 'This it too much) 1 cannot do thia. Omlen, I hart not deserved it What if von have to remain hereto my plaoaT "It will not matter much. It will not be to very long, and maybt 1 thould ap preciate life better then." Tht guard wat coming back; hit steps were very near now. Chalmers put hit ana across bit brother's shoulder and whispered very earnestly! "Do not try to communicate with ma, make a new start, George. 0 a good man. And do not go or writ to Lina Teunant until yon can do to in your own nam, when your sentence hat expired. Then go to her; bt boneat with her; tell her the whole truth. Mt deservet it and the will forgive yon, There wat no time for anything mora, Tbt grated door opeued and closed again, and two men paced ttaadlly down tha dim corridor, and ont of tbem wat George Chalmers, the criminal, ht npon whom the state had a Hen for ten of tht best yeare of hit manhood. And bt was going forth again to freedom. And behind, in that dreary tomb np there, wat Pgden Chalmers man of fortune and of leisure, lit bad never wronged any man nor the state. Yet bt tat there throughout tht slow hourt of the night looking hopelessly down long vista of yeara whernio ht could eee himself reduced to an automaton, thorn of hit Identity, labeled merely "convict number thirteen hundred and seventy' tlx, mocked at aud despised among men. And yet there waa no bitterness in hit heart It it ont of tha ooinpeniattont of this life that we art enabled to adapt our selves to whatever environment wa may be placed amidst Hume succeed in thia better than others, not because they posses lest virility of character, leas positivenest in pursuing a set course, but because they art able to perceiva in due season tha utter futility of an une qual cuuiiwt with fata or with clrcnm stance. The weak character, forced from its accustomed or congenial en vironmeut and into a lower plant of ex Itteuoe, becomes a maudlin rsller against the world; while tha stronger one, with like occasion, teta himself with grim determination to to ht himself to this new sphere at to receive tht fewest knocks possible. On the other band tbt weak character, thrown amid a broader environment, wonld fall to suite its op portnniline, while tha strong character would rise to tha occasion and become tlit leader of a great movemeut or the hero of a forlorn hope. In this respect the two brothers were opposite, the elder ropivseutlng the lat ter and more furtunateclass. From this it must not be inferred, bowevor, that prison life and discipline satllghtly npon him. Yet it waa not in regard to its physical aspecte that be was cnmpolled to summon all bit fortitude in order to endure without complaint. It wat only when ht found himself reduced to a mere machine with a number, robbed of bis owu volition In even the commonest acta of life, his dnyt nnd hours and min utes ordered at the will of another, that the spirit of revolt snrgod np in bis breast But Chalmers recnguixed tht folly of such thought and curbed tbem with a masterful will. In tbt whole prison there was no man who seemed to fall more easily into bis plnce, Even tht "lockstep" teemed nntnrul enough to him. Have yon ever seen the lockstep? Have you ever teen a chain each link of which waa a human being? Uave you ever teen tome fifteen hundred men bound together with invisible cords march as one man? Yon tay that you have seen your crack regiment on drest parade! They drill like the awkward sqnad or a band of country , militia compared with this itrlpod coil that winds through the prison yard. Each link in this coil hat allotted to tt tome fifteen inches of space. Thit link hat two hands, nod they art placed squarely on the shoulders of tht link in front The link hat two feet, and thoy rise, swing forward and full precisely in line and time with those of the link in front, and tbey fall precisely In the place from which those of tbt link in front have been lifted Two eyea bat this link, but tbey must glance neither to right nor to left; in the hollow of the neck of the link in front must their gaze rost, and only there. A lifted hand, a halting foot, a restless eye and the link it marked. Ah I excellent device it the lockttep. The link forgets that It was once a man, that it hat a soul, thn( it hat (or did have) volition. It forgots that it may riot, burn, kill; that It may hew down men and walla that stand between It and freedom. An excellent device. But for George Chalmers there wat none of this. At his brother's word he had gone out from tht prison a free man. Armed with his brother'! letters. furnished with hit brother's money, dressed in his brother'! clothes, equipped even with hit brother's name, a plain and easy path of life wat opened out be fore him, He went out with good re solves, made the more serious and thoughtful at the full measure of hit brother's sacrifice forced itself npon him more serious perhaps than, he had ever been before in all his life, The consciominesH of this sacrifice, the immensity of it, grew upon him; at first it bod been to sudden that he did not realize It all. Ho bad thought that maybe Ogdon had some plan by which be wonld be roleuood when it was found that the real criminal was gone. When he did realize, at he finally came to do In a little while, ha could almost have gone' hauki ouU mat pomi ht' could not quite bring himself, But bt deter mined to do hit best to follow Ogden't advice, and to to merit, at well as ht could, all that bad been dons for him. In Mexico ht found little trouble In es tabllthlng himself. There wart many whamtt afloat mining, railroads, cole-nltatlon-and bis knowltdgt of banking aud finance stood him in good stead. Ht took hold of safe schemes, put monty Into them, floated tbt bonds and ttock, and was toon recognised at a valuable man In promoting matters of value In tht Internal development of the newly awakening republic Into these matters he threw himself with all hit ardor, try ing to put the part behind him. But It would not wholly down, lie often thought of I.lna Tenoant and would have written to her bad it not been for Ogden't Injunction. He had wholly given her np now; in (act had dont to In hit own mind from the day of bit arrest, for ht kntw that sooner or later site mutt know tht whole atory, and ht nnder ttood tht depth and force of her nature well enough to kntw that tt would bt all over between them when that time am. She might forgive much, bnt alie wonld not forgive him Leoule, It might he best If he ahonld write now and tell her all about Ogden at well at about himself. He honestly hoped that the might come to oare for Ogden, now that be wat out of the way. If tht kntw what Ogden had done and what be hlmaelf had permitted per haps tt wonld help, and It would be tomt recompense. Bo, taking hit prom lea to Ogden at an excuse, ht put tt off from day to day and it became harder and harder to do. She had loved him once, and now to belittle himself before her thus, and thow how unworthy ht bad been of her love and trust wat more than he could bring himself to da And Leoniet Ogden had no right to Impose restrictions npon him there, or at least no right beyond what might be Implied by the nee of bit money. But In a little while George had money enough of hit own, and this ht might me or batard aa he chose. If there wat to be nothing between blm and Lina Teenant It wonld not matter about rata To be tullnot A. B. CHERRY, rVatchmaker and Jeweler. With Patterson Bros.
