She put the tamp down on tha Ubie beside-mine, sunl Uion stood quite still in the moonlight, heir fat wholly exprea ionles and without motion. It was an appalling thing to eee her thus. L too, remained motionUvss, but it wan because I knew not what to do, To awaken her might bring on the worst consequences. If she were not disturbed, she might possibly rotir a quietly and nncou cionsly a she had come But the mys tery of her being there at all appeared utterly inexplicable. What had led her, in her trance, to visit uiy roomf How had (he (W known where it was? What bad she dreamed of doing bore, and bore all how bad she contrived to enter through a bolted door with as much ease as though she had been a pint? Perhaps this was but a spirit or a phantom of my own braiul Was 1 wake? She stretched out her hand, not fol lowing its morion with her eyes, but mechanically, and. as it were, involnu tarily She lahl it on my coat ou the pocket which coutained the diamonds. Then slowly and deliberately, and still With averted (ace and eyes and that long drawn, slumberous breathing, she un buttoned the fastenings one after one, and her soft, tapering fingers closed upon the case. Meanwhile my mind had been rapidly canvawmg all the pros and cons of ac tion, aud I bad come to the conclusion that it would be better for her that 1 ahoald interfere. Uf my personal inter est in the matter I believe that 1 did uot think, indeed, knowing that the dia monds would not be lost, there was uo reason why I should. But it would not do to rwk compromising Kate. It was dangerous enough that utie should be here at all. but that she should carry away the diamonds with ber was inaJ ninwible. I rwe from my bed and laid my Rand gently on ber wrist She was no spint but warm flesh and blond, fr'or a few moments the restraint in which 1 held ber seemed to baffle aud distress ber. 1 fancied I could feel ber pulse beat nnder my lingers; a kind of spasm cnwsetl her face, her eyelids quiv ered and the eyes moved in their socket. Then ber breathing became irregular and canght in ber throat in a kind of Sou. The uiouieut of awakening was evidently at baud, and I dreaded its coming, lest she should scream out and rouse the bouse. But fortunately she Uttered no sound. Slowly speculation grew within her eyes: she fixed them on me. first with an expression of strange pleasure, soon changing to bewilder ment and fear Then with a cry that was none. the less thrilling because it was a whisper she drooped forward into my anus It was a delicious moment for all ituvenL "Yon are perfectly safe," I whispered In ber ear. "only make no noise," "Tom." she said, suddenly freeing her aelf from my anus aud putting a band on either shoulder, while ber wild, black eyes searched my face, "yon understand yon don't think" "Uf course 1 understand, my poor darlingr "What shall I do what shall I do? Let me kill myself!' With a motion swift as the glide of a serpent she reached toward the revolver, which I bad left on the bed. 1 was bare ly in time to catch ber arm. The look in the girl's face at that moment was terrible, "Let me! I will!" "Bash, Rate! You never shalL" "Oh. what shall I dor she murmured again, slipping down on her knees and running both hands through her thick, black hair 'Tom, if you love me you will kill me!" " Kate, every one in the house is asleep. Ton can go back to your room, and no one know. Only be calm. "And no one know? Yon think that?" "1 am sure of it" "1 know better. Some one knows it now be made it happen!" "Don't kneel there, dear. You're not yourself yet Yon don't know what yon 're saying." 1 said this reassuringly, but ber words had inspired me with a vague alarm that I ventured not to define. 1 brought a chair and made ber sit upon it, and sat down beside her. "Not here!" she whispered, drawing back out of the moonlight into the shadow "Come here, Tom. tie may be looking." "Why, Rate, who can see as here? The' door is shut" "Oh why was not the door bolted?" "It was. 1 can't conceive bow yon opened it "Oh, the villain! how I hate him!" "Rate, 1 love you, and whoever you bate must have to do with me." "Yon can do nothing no one can do anything unless you'll help me to kill bini!" "Whom? Do yoa mean Slurk? Tell me that!" "Yes!" she answered, with a shiver, not looking tne in the face, but with her hands clasped tight between ber knees. "1 do mean hiinl" "Now tell me all that he has done, dear," said 1 quietly. "I must know everything, and then i promise you that yon shall be freed from him." Be is my master!" she said in a frightened whisper. "He has been so ver so longl He makes me do what be wills; he sent me here tonight He shames me and destroys me he loves to lo itl He makes me sleep and then 1 cannot help myself. I wake and find it done, and he has no mercy." i-V . ' ''.- DIAMONDS? "Why does he do tinsr "It was when I was only a little girl that he first got that power over me. lie know my father was rich aud he wanted in to be promised to him for his you know what, Tom. Then my father put me In the convent, and 1 staid there seven years, till we thought he had lost the power, or was dead, perhaps. But he found me in America and tuade me come back, a&d uow it's worse than ever." "Whydoesnt your father have him arrested aud imprisoned? It can be done." "Oh, my poor father! lie cannot Tom. do uot ask me that!" "1 must ask it, Kate. Remember. I love youl Why is if "My father is afraid of him too," slis said, charing one hand with the otliot with a piteous expression of pain. "If he did anything against turn he would be ruined. My father cannot help uio, Tom." "But I do not understand. What has your father doue tint he should bo afraid of nii'h a scoundrel as Shirk?" 1 demand ed sternly She hesitated long before answering, moving ber hands and head restlessly and fetching many troubled sighs. At last she laid her baud sliriukmgly on mine, and I grasped it firmly. "1 will tell you, Tom," she said in a faltering voice: "but you know I would tell uo one in the world but you. My dear papa did not do wrong himself, but there were people connected with him who did, and inade the blame seem to be his And there were some papers of my papa's which which oh" "Yes, yes, I nnderstaud. darling: and Slurk stole the papers?" "Yes that is no: it was worse than that, for he didn't know where the pa pers were kept no one knew that but L Tom, he made me sleep, and in my sleep he made me go to the place where they were and tike them out and give them to him He made me rob my own father put my own dear papa in his hateful power. I would rather have died! And papa forgave me think of thatr "Then Slurk has the papers in his pos session, and he uses them for blackmail? But have yon never thought of trying to it sounds badly, but it would be per fectly justifiable to steal them back again?" "1 can do nothing. He can make' me helpless by a look, and he always carries them with him. But. Tom, if it could be doue without being found out I would I tell papa to kill him. But 1 cannot let my dear papa be hanged for that wretch. I and you see we have no evidence." I "Good Ood! What a fearful thing it : is!" I muttered. What help, what con : eolation could I offer? A terined and sen sitive girt nnder the mesmeric control of a ruffian: her father subject to bis ex tortions and insults, and the only escape a worse misery even than this Kate to yield herself to him in marriage! Faugbl the thought sickened me. but it enraged me too! Kate was right death, sudden and merciless, was the proper measure to be meted ont to Slurk. If he hail ap peared at that moment 1 believe I would Lave shot him unhesitatingly and re joiced in the deed. Murder would be a righteous work when wrought on such an he. and if the murder were brought home to me, could 1 suffer in a better cause? Rate had risen slowly from her chair and was now fronting me, scanning my face and bearing with curious eagerness She held her hands across her bosom, alternately interlacing the tips of the fingers and pulling them free again. Her lips moved as if in speech, but no sound came from them. 1 got np presently, looking I dare say very solemn, as indeed 1 felt Her eyes followed mine as 1 rose; and now we gazed straight at each other for some moments. "I promised you that you should be freed," 1 said, "and yon shall be, 1 shall be sorry to have any man's blood on my hands; but if yon can be saved in no other way, it must be so." "You do love me indeed!" she mar mured, with a sort of sad exaltation in her tone. But she added: "1 cannot let yon do it lcannot lose yon, even to be freed from him. It is my father's fault after all. Besides" "I take it upon myself," interrupted L with a ("ignity which may have been absurd, but which did not seem so to me at the time. "But it would be murder at any rate the law would call it so. No. yon must not be called a murderer, Tom. But 1 they would not hang a woman let me do itl 1 should love to do it!" And she spoke with a took that con firmed the words. Before 1 could reply, however, her ex pression changed again. She appeared to think Intensely for a few moments then her face lighted up. Suddenly she caught my hand and kissed it "And kiss me, Tom!" she cried, ex citedly. "Kiss me, for 1 deserve itl I have thought of a way that will save us all I" Much startled, and half fearing that the girl's mind had given way under the pressure of trouble, 1 was attempting to quiet her, but she silenced me by an im petuous gesture and went on speaking eagerly and rapidly. "Tomorrow we had planned to go to Kohlstein for a picnic. It's a great, im mense rock, where robbers lived hun dreds of years ago. Hardly any one ever goes there now. 1 have been there and 1 remember that on the top it is full of deeo clefts and holes, and I thought now, U any one were to lau imo one, they might lie there for mouths without being found, and they could never pit out of themselves. So now listen! We will go up there you and I and lie, ami I will lead him near the brink of one of those clefts and then you must : rush forward mid take him mid drop I him down down to the bottom! So we ' shall get what we want and yet there i uoed be no murder." "Not U liVirvler, Kate?" "It need not le, for when ho is safe down there, ratherthail bo left to starve, he would give up those papers, IXm't you thiuk he would?" She was trembling with excitement, and her state communicated Itself in some dogive to mo, so that 1 was scarce-: ly able to thiuk eohoreutly. But there certauuy sociium io no piausiiiinty in her scheme; at the worst It would lie better than shooting the man outright But would the recovery of the tutttor. put an end to Shirk's persecution of j nite as wvu as oi nor tamer? would uot his power over her remain? "Uut we can have him imprisoned i then, you see, was her answer to tuy objection; "and for fenrof that he would never dare to truiibls me again. Ho would have Ikvu in prison long ago but for the papers." "It certaiuly seems a good plan," 1 said, after a confused attempt to torn the matter over In my mind "We'll ask your father's opinion tomorrow." "Oh. he must know uothitig of it!" she exclaimed, with a gesture of vehe ment dissent "He would betray it You dont know how what a power that villain has over him. Slurk trout him like a child when they are alone. No, Tom, wo must do it all ourselves, oi it will fail Ouly when It Is done will dear papa get back his courage. 1 knew more about bow Mr. Birch more was treated by his valet in private than Kate was aware: but 1 made uo allusion to this. The more 1 reflected upon the enterprise, the more tucliiied I was to assent to it It was wild, fan tastic, unconventional, but it had im portant practical merits nevertheless. Moreover, it possessed the powerful recommendation (as I deemed it) of al lowing for a fair man to man struggle bet week Slurk aud myself. 1 was to overpower hnu by main strength; aud from what 1 had observed of the fellow 1 fancied he would be able to make just resistance enough to save my self re poet. On the other hand, he might be able to do more thau this: and if the worst came to the worst of course I might be compelled to maim him with my revolver. But altogether the pros pect kindled my imaginatiou, I was stimulated by the thought of distin guishing myself by tuy persoual prowess before my mistress' eyes, in conflict with ber itistardly oppressor. And as I looked at her standing there before me. so love ly and full of courageous fire, I said to myself that no kuight of yore over did ! battle in the lists for a worthier lady ! love. I However, 1 realized that this was neither the place nor the hour to enter i uihiii a detailed discussion of our plana ! Every moment that Kate remained with j me increased her peril, especially if, as i she seemed to think was the case, Slurk j had dispat .died ber hither. As to his mo tive in so doing I bad no difficulty in forming an opinion. There w little doubt that he. meant to use her a- an un conscious cat's paw to steul ' - dia monds, as before to purloin the ,-it compromising her father H.ul I leen asleep the device conld hardly have failed of success. But as Kate seemed herself not to suspect the real nature of her involuntary errand I would not ad ditionally distress ber by alluding to it; it was enough that it furnished me with a sufficient pretext, had others been wanting, for indicting clmstisuuiout on the valet Kate said in answer to my inquiry as to the proposed time of our starting ou the picnic expedition the next day that it would prolwbly liealwut eleven in the forenoon; we would, therefore, have ample time to settle the particulars of our scheme before the hour of action ar rived. At parting she clung US me with peculiar tenderness: nor hail I ever loved her so well as at that moment, when 1 looked forward to lilsjrating her forever from the evil spell that had been blight ing her young life. After she had gone I hail tho curiosity to examine the bolt on the door. The explanation of its mysterious oponiug proved simple enough. The screws whereby the socket of the bolt hail been fastened to the door frame had been re moved, and the holes so enlarged that they could be slipped in and out without difficulty Socket aud screws bad then been replaced, so that the bolt could be shot as readily as before. But the securi ty was only an illusion, for, the latch being turned, a slight push would bring away the socket and screws uttacbed to the bolt, and thus the supposed means of safety be ingeniously used to disguise the real absence thereof. Cure is Cure However It may be effected; hut iinjint prejudice often prevent people from trying s 'proprietary medicine,' until other remediei prove unavailing. J. H. ltltchle, Commission Agent, Kingston, Australia, writes : " Kor years a confirmed sceptic as to the merits of proprietary medicines, I was at last converted hy the use of Ayer's Cherry I"cc toral. Kor months a bottle of this medicine, of which I had come Into possession through the kindness of a friend, remained unopened In my closet, till one nlnht I was seized with a violent cold accompanied hy a racking cough. Hating nont of ml umml rmnHf at hand, I thought of the Cherry Pectoral, and determined to give It a trial. The result was truly maKlcal. Relief came almost Instantly, and after repeating the dose, certainly not more than half a dozen times, I found my self thoroughly cured. Huhscuciitly niy daughter was cured of a severe cough hy the use of the Cherry Pectoral. I recommend this preparation to all sufferers from throat and lung troubles." For croup, whooping cough, bronchitis, asthma, and consumption the best remedy is Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, rFRBFAIlKU BT Dr. J. C. AYER & CO., Lowell, Ma$s. Bold by all Druiu.
