Muiikhii knew Raymond would not keep hia word, and he knew alao that Raymond would be bold enough to repudiate the deed if aipcd then and there, on the tmmnd that dureea bad been nwd. The kwjicra would (wrjuro thenwelvca to atrengthen their claima on Raymond. Tin-re waa no way to re tore to Iwilad her rights except on evi dunce aceeptaldo to the aupreme court: Maugau would gain nothing by enter ing itito legal comptkatloim now, but would lone time and tune waa every thing. Three moot ha more and Ray. niond would bo abaolute minder, lie intiHt pw!iiiie qunrrela. All Una duell ed acroMi hia mind while tho telephone bell was ringing. Ho saw he had tho man before bim Reared and that bo could dictate "Walk out into tbo corridor, all of you, and yon open tho doors, warden." bo commanded. They obeyed. Ae he followed them be took hi letter oft tho warden's dk and put them in bla overcoat rioeke still covering tha four. Tho warden opened the doora. ; ; " Every one of 'you stand up ngnlnnt tbe wall in the rear of the corridor. Do particular to keep your bands above your heads, They marched back. 'What are you King to do about this, Mangan?" naked Raymond, 'You'll hear too soon for your own comfort," wu all that was vouelmafed him. , ' When they had renched the rear wall, Mangan pawed out through the door ways and ran to cutcb a pnsaing car. "It's getting hot," he snld to him self as he allowed hia mind to wander back over the exciting incidents ho hud juat pasaed through. "It's fun in one respect, hut If 1 cannot prove Isabel's paternity Raymond will have tho laugh. Mothor St. Ocitrndo will euro for Isabel, and I'll start straight for Denver in the morning before 1 got en tangled in other plotB." CHAPTER XII. ISABEL YIKUR TO TltK BCHF.MRR. When Mangan walked out of the penitentiary, Raymond, the warden and tne Keepers dropped their bunds. Kay mond felt like berating the keepers lonndly, He was not a man to allow bis feelings to interfere with bis schemes., It would never do to Buspend tho keepers i It would be, bad to abuse them-, it might awaken enmity even to criticise them. Ho was at their mercy. In his fruitless endeavors to confine Mangan until he had millions secured, be had simply succeeded in giving three men o power over him that be would have to conciliate for all time, Thoreforo be said nothing concerning .he experience of the evening, but bade the warden and keepers good night and Walked down the stoop, a much mora flejected man than when he entered the grim portals of the state's stronghold a few hours before. Next day be was fretful. He feared the conseuuonces pf his act and, was uncertain what to flu. ll awaited to initiative of Mangan. Days passed and he had beard nothing of the oewspapaf man. He had Instituted Inquiries about him, but no t race of biiu could be foamL Ho hud newspaper friend - the recip ients of hia favor who went on tarma of intimacy with tho managing editor of Tbe tingle, Unt oiauagiug editor are uot telling everybody, or any oatv JiiHt what men on spiniial nilsaiena art about. Tbe words of the managing ed itor, as ijuotcd to Raymond, werei "Mangan baa dropped out of sight, I don't know where he la." "What baa become of blnifl That was tbe question Raymond waa pus sling about, Raymond waa not afraid of a suit, it waa aud la the practice of justices to run off on pleasure trips and sign a unmbtir of patera for their chief clerks to till. Naturally, the justice. If ever called upon, accept the decision of their clerks a their own, If Man gun brought suit, tbe evidence would bo all against hlui, If be said be had never appeared tn court for trial, ba would be set down aa demented, a At subject for a lunatic asylum. Raymond bad taolved to ascertain whether anything waa known at tbe convent of Mangan 'a location, H had concluded that Mangan bad gone to Denver. He had alao reasoned tooaltn eolf that Mother Ht. Ucrtrude must have known of bla discovery, Tbe letter ad drotMcd to her predecessor satisfied hiia ot that. If Maugan had gone to Den ver, b must circumvent him. Howf That be could determine only by learn ing how much Mother Ht, Gertrude knew aud then by deceiving bar and laabel. It was a dangerous move to vlait tbe convent, hut it was the safest. Ho was playing for millions, and hi nerve in tint not fall. Over a week bad elapsed since Mangan disappeared, and It waa time to act. "Murprlaed to see tne, mother?" ho said a lie passed inside tbe convent portals, determined not to be ushered out or take hint to go until he had gained the knowledge ho was seeking. "I am at a losa to acconut for your visit," she said. "I am interested In a frtcad of your and a friend of laabel -Laurence Men- ." "Well?" "Do yon know where ba 1st" "I do not." lie scanned her feature and bad no doubt that she was answering truly and would answer truly if she did not re sort to evasions. Prevaricate or equiv ocate she would not. "Yon know of hi mission?" Vhat mission?" "Well, be was writing an article and went off at a tangent . He was too bot bfaded to give explanations. Did ho any what his suspicions were of my conduct?" "I am not at liberty to say any thing." " Well, from your reply I shonld say he was indulging in bis usual trade. 1 discovered some days before be did tb coincidence of name In thedeeda of cer tain lands, and atti acted by It took stiqi to protect her and secure the prop erty by paying the taxea and getting a certificate. There was no record (that i could find that would show tit was any relative of here who bad made thte tnveatment. Isabel la tbe helreaa, tbo property Is hers.. and we have the time to search into tbo past tor evidrnioe.!' "And Laurence was going to Denver to investigate. Just think of It, 1 was surprised at bis conclusions, , 1 wish bo was here now."; " Bo do I. But, mother, my Interest was in Isabel long , before this. Even now it is difficult to prove herlgbt to tbe property, 1 coufeaa 1 cannot see bow it can be done. I'm a wealthy man. Von know that. Tbere can be no charge of seliiahoeea In my regard for her. Do you know what that .re gard Is?" "Isabel has told mo, but la Laurence really ber brother?" "Hols." "Then if you can prove that why cannot you provo whether Isabel baa a right to this estate or not?" "lean only prove that there was a George Leland, that Laurenoe is his son and Isabel bis daughter. The fam ily tradition will do that, but of Mr. Leland 's Investments tbere are no proofs. The lawyer who searched the titles and arranged the purchase Is dead. He was my patron, and I have fruitlessly examined bis papers for any clow." "Out how did you trace Isabel's to-; latlonshlp?" C Raymond .was not dealing with a simple girl now. He was talking with a woman of a judicial tomporament who wanted to know the why and wherefore of everything. "Didn't Isabel tell yon?" he asked,' parrying ber interrogatories to get time to plan his story. "She said something about an uncle In Worcester preming him. Dut If tbe , uncle know of Isabel why did he never write to her? Why did bo never send ber some memento of ber mother? 1 cannot believe there are hearts in the world so cruel." " 1 told laabel that I discovered ber name a short time ago by a memoran dum o the old lawyer. It saidi 'Isa bel Le Clair in Convent of Mercy and Laurence jvtangan, supposed son , ot James Mangan of Worcester, Mass., son nd daughter of George Leland. See case 8, shelf Evidently on that shelf and in that case was something that would throw light on all this.- The ex ecutor, however, who was a brother of the deceased, took those papers. Be bus himself diod since, and in the few weeks 1 have been looking Into the mat ter 1 have beon no further enlightened. On the other band, ths case was being pressed against Laurence, and my inter tat in Isabel caused me to display more activity than usual in Laurence's be half. Have I not satisfactorily ex plained?" . ,. "How do yon account for the antip athy Laurence entertains toward you?" "It is hurd." "1 think bo is too candid, too honest, to pcvBiBt In his enmity if a frank state went wero miido to bim." : "Unt wberolihanow?" ul cannot "1 know ba has been pub4 during the peat few days and it likely to bo arrested. Ha Is so blgb minded and sensitive that ha might resort to mean wa wonld jtcfloro. He etrtkee me as on who would prefer death to dishon or." i "He would' never than danger by courting discredit',' f " I hop you art right mothor, bnt bis abseno and bit silence art signifi cant" . . Just than Isabel peered In from the corridor, Hhe wanted to tot Mother Bt Uortrudt and bad been directed to tbt reception room,: Raymond had aeon ber, and sb oon Id not withdraw before tbe mother superior aaldi . "Com in, Isabel, " 8b obeyed, f Her fact told of tbt night ol worry ah had pained thiough. The change did not escape Raymond' He attributed It to the secret that she waa biding from Mangan and that sb had imparted to Mothor Ht. Oertrndo. , ; " You are looking til," bo said to her, "I am uot feeling well," waa ber only reply. "I bop,' h continued, "that yon art not fretting over things that will ultimately lead to bapplneaa, though a llttl perplexing now." - "1 wish it would end quickly. Why cannot you tell Laurence now?" "I would like to pleas yon," he an awered, " but i cannot find him. H waa persecuted by tbe people of whom I poke and has probably gone away to soms other city.' I will take step to find bim. In fact that' what brought me here today." "Oh, how good of you!" exclaimed Isabel, and the sparkle of her eyes spoke ber appreciation. "There ate a few matter that must bo attended Ut isstda," said Mother St OeTtnide. "1 will bo away hut a few momenta. Msanwblle try to devise torn scheme to reach Laurence," "What would yon suggest?" queried Raymond. ' " Wa mast frost to yon. Gut I'll go over tb matter when 1 return." "What I your opinion?" Raymond aaked of laabel when the nun bad gone. "It i a Mother 8t Oertrndo says. Wo must trust to yon, " "1 bava an idea," he said. "It must not be mentioned to tb sister unless it ta acceptable to you.',' "What ia it?" "Laurence will never aettle down. He will fly from place to place until the Croaoontioa ceasea., Yoa know that 1 )vt you. 1 know that In time my de votion will awaken reciprocal feeling tu you. Let your love for Laurence guide you.; I hav discovered property both of yon may claim. 1 have taken steps to bold it for yon, aa Mother tit Oertrndo will explain. Surely there Is in all this something that most give . yon an assurance that nothing 1 can do will be left undone to make yon and him happy 1 hav told you bow and . why bl character can be vindicated, reconciliation effected, and your Uvea, with mine, enter a vista more propi tious, prosperous and peaceful." "Mr, Raymond, 1 must say that I have thought tbi matter overt that 1 cannot glv you tbe love a wife should have for her husband, andsshat while 1 might set aside my personal wishes to further my brother's welfare, I have no right to be a burden upon you." "It ia no butden. If you never change toward me, tbere will bo solace In your friendship that will atone for all." "You have that already." "But tbe companionship 1 have not 1 cannot proceed until yon are my wife, Tbo very mention of this in tbe press, bringing yon and tb convent into pub licity, would create a sensation paiuful to Mother St. Oertrndo. How can 1 explain my Interest in this case of bis, risk my personal and political standing, If 1 fail and scandal ensue, without aomctblng to fortify me? Let me be candid. ' 1 am not doing this for Lao ronoa so much as for you. You can hardly appreciate what it means to mo, and it ia not likely that Laurence would resent my Interference, But if you say so, if you ask mo to make tbe sac rifice, 1 will do so, I will give up all, for tbe hope of winning your love." "Love la dead witb me," she an swered. "Affection survives,, tho at lection that springs from gratitude. . 1 will consult witb Mother St. Gertrude." Raymond was gaining his point at every turn. He saw that tbe deep love Isabel had for Mangan as a lover and the affection due to a brother bad blend ed. Mangan was dearer than ever to her now. There was nothing she would not dare for bim who was. torn from heraye, torn from her, for she wept at uight and worried by day that be had been, blotted out of tlie pictures she need, to draw of the future blotted out from the most striking scenes, show ing up only in the background of the newer canvas placed, npen the easol of ber dreams. She longed, to keep him at the front, her hero still, bnt fact put a weight on fancy and would not let it oar. ' Laurence,, Maagnn 'fM. dead. She could never love another as she had loved bim. But Laureno Leland lived. Ibe cavahok garment rontaueit nafl dropped froaa bis hero Rori, but yet bo appealed esrouger to tie sympathies. Since it would be the way to dem onstrate how strong bet krhad bean and how attached she Kiil wrs to him, and that the new relatisa would have In it some of the iweetaoaa of the old, the would crown her sorro w at parting with a sacrifice for a reunion.. "I will go to Mufher St. Gertrude," Isabel continued, "I want to meet her alone, to confide in her,' to appeal to her,, to pray for guidance." ."Shall I wait?" ' ""Yes."-. ' Isabel went in the direction tho nnn had taken. Raymond knew or felt that ho had dissipated the opinions the nun had entertained of hitn through Man gan 'a report. Yet he was nervous. He hadift presentiment that all would not ho satisfactory. , Ho arose and walked baok nnd forth across tb reoentiou Highest of all In Leavening Power. Latest U. S.

"Bhe will turn over the management to me, sign ber rights away, and she'll not ba tbe burden on mo she thinks. She can take the veil then if she wants to, Mangan? Oh, 1 'II have a judge appoint a com mission tlutt will incarcerate him in tha comity asylum, and It Isn't likely be'H cscupe from there until I am politically dead.

"Under the circumstances that would be difficult." "What am I to understand, Mothei Bt Gertrude?" " Why, that tbe conversation betweeu Isabel and myself precluded thoughts of anything but yon. " "la sue coming back?" be asked, ber absence appearing to bim as an omen of defeat. "1 fear sbe is not strong enough. She has had too much to bear of lute' "Then I must go?"

I cannot consent to any such arrangement as yon propose, and I bavo confidence in Luureuco himself that only bis own actions can weuken. I will wait for awhile. You know why Isabel con sents.

Kimball, tbe well known jobber of window and plate glass at Chicago, ha submitted for publication the following discouraging view re garding the trades "It Is difficult to speak of the condi tions in the glass trade without seeming to be a prophet of hard time. The tariff agitation, pointing to a revision that ap parently means disaster to the manufac turing and jobbing branches of tbe glaaa trade, haa affected sale until it hurts ev ery one engaged in tbe business from tho laborer np and down. Speaking in general terms, I should say tha volume of business in glass haa been decreased fully 20 per cent aa compared with last year, and if it had not been for the World's fair and the business which fol lowed as a result or its nreseuee Chi cago's glaaa trade would have been at leaat 83 per cent leae than It waa a year ago. "Studying the situation aa carefully a may be, there seems to be no important factor in tbe trade disturbance outeide of the tariff revision proposed by thoad ministration.,. The glass trade baa suf fered ever since Mr, Cleveland came into power from the knowledge that the tariff schedule would bo lowered and other wise disturbed. - Tbo result has been a decrease in purchases by jobbers, a con sequent reduction of manufacture, fol lowed by the discharge of large numbers of workingmen and the shutting down. of many large plants. Today only two I. i ...... . , . . m w uuutiig, auu tuna than iia per cent of the window glass factories are at work. . "Tbe jobber who haa any stock at all is glad, to dispose of it at cost and the. man who has no stock is waiting ,to see. what congress is going to do before he . purchases. "Another factor in the business is the abeence of the men who intend to build. Ordinarily permits are taken out in the fall for buildings so tho foundation may be laid and everything put in condition for completion early in. the spring. So the fall permits indicate in a measure what Is to be done in the way of build ing during the ensuing year. The per rnits issued this fall show that very little construction ia contemplated during the winter and coming spring. Taking all the indications, I cannot see 'whore , the glass manufacturers and jobbers are to get any business in the immediate fu ture, and I do not look for anything like s a resumption, of favorable conditions be fore late in the. summer of 1894 or early In the fall. . "This ia bound to affect labor iu the glaaa manufacturing and kindred trades, . If the duty on glass ia reduced 00 per cent, it must, in my opinion, come off f the laborers' wage. ; The material in a .
