Therefore 1 was more than willing to give ear to the strange tory which be proceeded to relate to Die Imagine the servants dismissed, a fresh lump of coal in the grate, the de eantei letween us and our legs and el bows disposed tn the most comfortable tanner possible. Then this is the story. CHAPTER IL 3 -Thete are all I ndlnn stoncn," wat Birch vuire' Umt reuuirK. The diamonds, you must know, have been ever so long in our family. It is aid they were brought from India in the time of Marco Holo by an ancestor of mine. But that is neither here nor tbere. and sure enough, they were only put into their present shape quite re cently 1 can remember when half of them were uncut, or cut in some bar baroos, oriental manner, picturesque enough but not fashionable. And some were mounted as nose rings, some as clasps, some in the hilts of daggers and in all sorts of other ways. When 1 was a child i was sometimes allowed to play with some of the loose ones as a treat, nntil at last 1 contrived to lose one of the biggest. Yon may not believe it bnt the governor actually horsed nie and gave me a birching, and the dia monds were locked np from that day. It was only a few years ago that my dear mother, now no more, got them 1 i i out and insisted upon thoir being made up into a regular sot by some skillful jowolor. We wore thinking of going to Rome nt the time to spend six or eight mouths, and the first i.lea was to give the job to Castollani. But thou it appeared that my mother hail got hor oyo fixed upon a certain man in I'liris. who she had boon told was tbo first lapidary in Europe, lie, aud none but ho, should set our diamonds. You kuow my mother gen erally had her way, and she had it in tins case. The follow certainly did uu doistand his business, his work was well done, as yon may have noticed this evening A queer, pale, nervous little chap he was, uot a Frenchman at all, but a Saxon, boru in Dresden, 1 believe, or some village in that neighborhood. His name was Rudolph Hoiunch Ru dolph. He live. I and worked in a Utile dark shop in the Latin quarter. He and 1 became quite intimate. You see. I had been commissioned to attend to this diamond busine.v' and to remain in I'ans mini it was done I was to watch it tunmu'h all its stages, aud be sure that my mother s directions regard ing the r vie ot die setting were accu rately l.iiiov.el Whi'U all was finished 1 was to p;iv the lull and bring the dia monds on to Homo where the family would oy tn a' time lieestablislied. Well. 1 was a young fellow just fooling my oats aud probably I was not nmch cast down at the proseot of spending a moutbortwo alone tn Pans. as you might suppose But I doubt whether I should have atteudetl to my ostensible business go faithfully as I actually did had I uot been so greatly taken with my little friend Rudolph He and I "twigged" one another, as boys say. from the first 1 used to sit and watch him work for honrs at a time, and as he worked he would talk, aud very queer, captivating talk a good deal of it was. He was a thorough artist aud enthusiast, and seemed to care for nothing outside of his profession. He did not appear to me to tie in the way of making much money and it occurred to me that it might tie acceptable were I, in an unobtrusive way to introduce him to some wealthy customers. I kuew few people in I'ans; but there was a Mr. Birchmore, an American gentleman, staying at my hotel, with whom I had foregathered over a cup of coffee and a cigar once or twice, he was a handsome, middle aged man. with an atmosphere of refined af fluence about him such as would have befitted a dtika Not a bit like your tra ditional Yankee, in fact. I'm uot sure that I should have suspected him if I hadn't seen bis address "Fifth avenue, New York city, Li. S. A. in the hotel register about a week after my arrival. He was an agreeable man euough, though not at all the sort to take liber ties with, however, I made np my mind that I would get lum to Rudolph's on the first pretext that offered. Well. I ha.l an excellent pretext be fore long Mr Kirchmure came into the cafe one afternoon, with rather an annoyed look, and mado some iuquiries of the waiter Francois raised his eye brows and shrugged his shoulders; there was some furt tier conference, and then he and Mr. Birchmore liegan searching about the Moor of the room It presently transpired that he had lost a diamond out of his ring, which had contained three matched brilliant. It was no where to be found "I don t mind the loss of the stono it self," fwid Mr Birchmore at last. Hitting down near my table; 'but it's one of a set matched with great difficulty, and I'm afrai 1 I may never replace it." Here was my opportunity. I set forth the wisdom, skill and resources of my little Saxon friend in glowing colors, mentioned the work he was doing for me. and declared that if any man m Europe could help Mr. Birchmore to re pair his loss, Rndolph was he. Mr. Birchmore at first paid little heed to my representations, but finally 1 induced him to accompany me to the Latin quarter, and at least make the attempt. The next morning, accordingly, we set forth, and as we sanntered along the wide, pleasant boulevards our conver sation became more free and affable than it had been hitherto. 1 found my companion could be exceedingly enter taining when he chose it. and had a vast fun 1 of exiierience and adventure to draw upon. He had been almost every where; be bad made himself familiar with all varieties of civilized and un civilized men; as a matter of course, too, he was a versatile lingnist. The only direction in which ho gave any evidence of comparative deficiency was in that of literature and the fine arts. His life had been essentially an active one; he cared little for Tennyson and Swinburne, for Matthew Arnold and (Jarlyle. He hud. however, read and appreciated "Macbeth," and some other of Shakespeare s plays, and he was well acquainted with several of the romances of "Unabashed Defoe." I did not dis cover all this in the course of that ono stroll over to the Latin quarter, but it leaked out during our subsequent ac quaintance, which was destined to be come more intimate and prolonged than 1 had any idea of then. As I have inti mated, Mr. Birchmore was quite frank aud open in his talk, except upon one topic himself. Of his inner life and circumstances I could learn nothing. Though he never was obtusely reticent, yet he con trived never to refer to his own private affairs. 1 could not satisfy myself whether he were married or single, i i I wlictlior lu vir h Crttliolio or Htlu'tKt luuMty wtiotluT he wow rli'h or inior. Somo li.tlov of crief, koiiio iiu'iilmn of fear or calamity scorned to overwhelm him and iiuiKvso silence The most 1 ! could do was to draw inferences, and ; my inference was that he was n liach- olor, a millionaire, a skeptic and a man ' who at some period of his life had com- j niitted. either dolilieratoly or by force i of circumstances, a terrible, criniol You ' will see presently how far my estimate was from the truth, or how near to It, j However, I am anticipating, ns it is. : Wo arrived in duo time nt Rudolph's little shop and I introduced htm to lUivhmoro, 1 had previously told the latter about my diamonds and now I made Rudolph produce them.

Ho says what ' you don't know about diamonds isn't worth knowing," I put in. Uirchiuore nodded with a half smile. "1 ought to know something about! precious stones." ho said. "1 spent three years in a diamond mine for one thing." ; He seemed on the oiiit of saving more, 1 but chocked himself, aud went on scruti nizing the stones, most of which were already iu their now setting. "A costly parure, that," ho rouuu'ked nt length. "It wouldn't sell for a penny under thirty thousand Hunds." j "Five hundred aud eighty-five thou sand francs, with the stilting," replied Rudolph, to whom the word had lieen addressed. "Monsieur's estimate would have lieen correct but that this stone here is a little off color aud this ono has a slight Haw. which is uow in part con cealed by the setting." "Yon travel under projier precautions, I trust:"' said Birchtuore after a pause, turning gravely to me. "I know thu confidence you young fellows have in your courage aud cleverness, butadozeii or a si-ore of thieves might conspire to-1 gether for such a prize as this, and ! against their skill and address no single; man would stand a chance. Ah! I know I something of it. I was robbed once." "IVi tell me alsiut it." 1 exclaimed, with an impulsive betrayal of interest that made me smile the next moment. , "Another tune," said he. shaking his head. nti. I presently he added. "You will pardon me for presuming to counsel you?" i "My dear sir, I am much obligisl to you. My idea is that the simplest pre-' cautions are the U-st. I shall carry the stones in an inner pocket and I shall go oriui'd No one wiil suspect me, and if 1 am attacked 1 shall make a good do-, fense at all events." j Mr. Birchmore said nothing more, and ' indeed seemed scarcely to listen to my remarks. I now suggested to lain that he might show Rudolph his ring. He. put his hand to Ins waistcoat s k. t and ; gave a half suppressed ejaculation of dls-; npioihtincnt and annoyance Ho had left the ring at lioiu.-l "No matter. I will call tomorrow,' Herr Rudolph," he o!serve.l "Tve no, doubt I shall tiudwh.il I want here, if anywhere. Gcnid morning that is, if! you are ready. Mr Uaiiisborough? By: the way. Rudolph.

This is almost my first exiierience of the Continent. I wish I had some traveling companion who knew the ropes." This hint I let fall in the hope that he mi'lit propose to join we, hut it he made no rejoinder I lit length ventured to put it more plainly, I gave u rough sketch of the route I pro-' .; - 1 posed to follow, asked his opinion upon it and finally said that should his in clination lead him also in that direction I should be very glad of his company. "Well, sir. I'm obliged to you," re plied Mr. Uirchiuore alter a pause of some moments. "You couldn't tiay a man a better compliment than to ask I t.r..., I ..... II.

He puffed a meditative cloud or two and then adih'd. "You're not hurl? Von boo how it i. I would really like to accompany you hut 1 can't."

Unit mmo mystery or oilier uttiielioil to him. I cast covert glances at him lu the vain attempt to road something of his secret through his outward aspect Hut ho was Inscrutable, or rather thorn was nothing especially noticeable in him. His lace, ns I have said, was handsome lu its contours; ho wore a heavy mustache and a short, pointed Ivaid on bis chin His forehead was wide across the temples, but low, and daik brown hair, rather stiff, and streaked here and there with gray, grew thickly over Ins bead. Ills hands wore large aud hairy up to the second joints of the lingers, but they were finely and powerfully formed aud the lingers ta ilored beautifully, with nails smoothly take note iif everything; they were sel dom fixed and never tntropecttvo. Compared with the general immobility of the rest of his countenance, these eyes of Mr, litrohmore seemed to have a life of their own, and a very intense and wat'-hful ono. Whenever they mot mine fully (which was but seldom, and thou only for a mo ment at a time) I was conscious of a kind of start or thrill, as if a line spray of icy water had swept my face. W hat had those oyos looked Uhhi, or what was it that lurked behind them? "We may run across each other again hope we may," said Mr. Uirchiuore when 1 shook hands with him at parting fow davs later. "(Had to have mot you, Mr. Uamsborough -very glad, sir." "Thanks; 1 am glad to have met yon. Your acquaintance has profited mo not a little." "Oh. as to that." said Mr llirehmoro, with a siiiilo aud one of those startling, straightforward glances into 111 v eves - as to that the profit will have txvn mutual, to av the least of it.
