A certain portion of the money only of these Innocents could be diverted to tho Innumerable and mysterious uses of the Mutual Credit nnd Trust Company. They were then af forded an opportunity of Iosinsr tho resi due at the card tables in the Avenue ngram. Many, doubtless, who frcouentod tho vicomtes establishment were totally un aware of the risks they ran. These were rarely suffered to go behlud tho curtnin. M. Chabot wag one of those who had for of his fellows, exclaiming: Hack, you fools. It is Monsieur Csa- sagne. Quietly they nil sneaked away from tho man whom of all others they dreaded.

Then he threw the pistol down nnd jumped from the window. Wo must search for the man in two places; in the haunts of the poor and in the palaces of tho wealthy. We have little to guide us but the scraps of parchment and the gold locket I also found." "Let me look at tho locket," said the doctor. "Can you get it open? It may contain n lock of hair or something." I have already done that. It contains a picture," responded Cassngne. "I will Bhow you." The detective took a penknife and pried up the little gold lid.

That's how Alfred Cas sagne and Charles D'Auburon bccnine acquainted. Profoundly grateful to M. Cassagne, D'Auburon not only did not lose sight of him. but visited him often. Tho friendship of the detective wns the other's salvation. Merely curious nt first. D'Au buron ultimately became completely fns- clnated in the character and career of hi friend. Thinking that he. D'Auburon, had seen of age. "What does this mean?" cried the doc tor. "Henry Graham cannot have com mitted this murder. This is a portrait of Henry Graham himself. "Impossible 1" ejaculated the detective. "It is a fact." replied Dr. Mason. He ran into the drawing room, nnd picking up an album, turned the pages over rap idly. Finally he stopped at a certain photograph "That was Henry Graham when ho was a decent member of society," he said, The detective put the locket down close to the photograph, and compared the two pictures carefully. "There is no doubt whatever about it,' he remarked. "You are right ; they are portraits of one nnd the same man." "Then it couldn't be Henry Graham? inquired the physician. "A man doesn't carry a locket containing a picture of himself." "It may not be Henry Graham at all, replied the detective. "I hope it isn't for the sake of the family ; but he's the man we've got to look for first, and tho sooner we find him the better your friend's prospects are of regaining his liberty, CHAPTEU X. There are all kinds of men In Paris, all kinds of failures in life and ail kinds of successes the poor genius who dis patches himself in nn attic, and the financial magnate. The Vicomte de Va lalr was one of those gentlemen who might be placed in the latter category. At a bound he had risen from compara tive obscurity to sudden wealth and such social position as his title, having its source in the king of the Belgians, could insure him in a society which cared rath er more for good dinners than old blood. The Vicomte de Vnliar's great hit had been the successful floating of the City und Suburban Messenger Company. Lon don had refused to accept this scheme, preferring to send its servants out into the rain and ruin its liveries, to having a little instrument in the house by which to summon at a trifling charge a messen ger, a doctor or a cab. De Vaiiar, with an eye keen as a hawk, had watched the career of the enterprise in the English metropolis. He saw that it was unsuit ed to the phlegmatic nnd exclusive tem perament of the Briton. In the Ameri can colony at Paris alone was to be found a successful field for its opera tions. The projectors of the London com pany, Americans, were glad enough to ieii tne x rencn patents. TJiey even laughed 'n their sleeves at the vicomte, na they pocketed his cash, regarding him already as a ruined man. At the same time they could not help admiring his audacity. The Vicomte de Vaiiar was audacious, and he displayed consummate tact in putting his scheme before the public. He opened a large and showy office. lie subsidized the most venal of he Paris newspapers; he pulled a thou sand strings. Then, when all was ready, he opened his subscription books. Hun dreds came to his office, rang up a mes senger, and having subscribed, called up a cab on the queer little buzzing instru ment, and departed rejoicing in their hearts that there were such enterprising men in existence as the Vicomte de Va iiar. All that was five years ago. Once floated, the vicomte had promptly with drawn himself from the messenger enter prise, and invested the increased capital which that speculation hud brought him, In the Mutual Credit and Trust Com pany. A very limited numlwr of shares of this concern had been offered to tho public. Sucli was the prestige of the vicotnte's name that they had been sub scribed for over and over again in a very few hours. But it was jiot alone In the field of business that de Vaiiar had achieved such a remarkable -success. The vicora teese was a brilliant, dark-eyed, handsome woman, whom do Vaiiar claimed to have met abroad during his travels in the West Indies Martinique, rumor had it. Her entertainments were much sought after, and who shall say that she was not a useful and excellent helpmeet? If a wealthy subscriber wavered, an Invita tion to tho house where they could talk tho matter over almost Invariably result ed in tho closlug of the transaction. It was not possible that a man "with such an establishment above nil such n wife could go wrong. If the vlcomte's idea of an office was rather a loud one, tho uudoubtcd good tasto of his wife cor rected these things at home. Those deep blue eyes of tho vicomtesse wero not tho only attraction at the de Vnllar mansion. There was always high play for those who relished that kind of thing, ami a sprinkling of those ladles whom Riich a woman as the do Vaiiar, as she was familiarly called at tho clubs, would bo sure to gather around her. They werd women of great personal attractions, Bome of them divorcees, others on the blgh road to that enviable vtate. the the veil had been removed nil nt once, he wbuld have ceased his visits altogether. He lived -"in bachelor apartments. Pro foundly impressed with a sense of his personal dignity, he endeavored on a very small income to keen uu nnnearances. Lately, however, he had joined de Vaiiar in more than one investment by which he had profited. The wily de Vaiiar. who had allowed his friend to pocket something handsome as his share of these enterprises, of course, had his object in view. What other, indeed, could it be than to discover all about Chabot's rich friend. Mme. Itoupell, concerning whom M. Chabot was not nt all loth to Imnart information. for he WOUld In his turn tip nhln fn ilia. cover What probable dot the old lady wouid be able to give whichever of the girls he should choose to marry. buch inquiries, the vicomte. whose po sition in the world of finance enabled him to make better than Chahot. willingly set on foot to oblige his friend. He as sured M. Chabot that report had not ex aggerated Mnle. Ilotipell's wealth.

The question which now arose in the mind of M. Victor Lablanche, the astute prefect of police, was this: Had M. Cha bot sought to precipitate matters by the removal of the proprietress of the Cha teau Vllleneuve? He had discovered al ready that inquiries regarding her fortune and her intentions respecting it had been set on foot by Jules Chabot. A little further research revealed the fact that the Frenchman's finances wero in a des perate condition. In his later enterprises with the Vicomte de Vaiiar, fortune had not been so kind. He had lost heavily. tilled to such perfection that they yield ed nn abundant harvest. Imagining he knew it all, he stood humbled in the pres ence of that genius, whose unequnlcd pen etration of the thoughts nnd methods, nnd whose extraordinary knowledge of the ways of men and women, astonished while it enthralled him.

D'Auburon, ns Cassagne be fore him, succumbed to the fascinations of a pursuit which the ignorant despise, simply because they do not comprehend sec how many of your cows arc paying it D'Auburon became first the pupil. nnd' finally the assistant of the great de tective.

Five years before the tragedy at the Chateau Vllleneuve, Charles D'Auburon had found himself the untrammeled pos sessor of a considerable patrimony, nnd hnd started in to enjoy life. He was then twenty-one years of age. Two years later he had exhausted every means of pleasure. He was at that age when a really good woman would have proved his salvation. She did not, however, make her appear ance. He was destined to find relief in a more novel and totally unexpected di rection. The Rue Brodier Is not a particularly attractive street either before or after midnight. The police will assure you that it is positively dangerous. Many a sunrise has revealed the body of some victim lying in its dark courts and noi some alleys. It is altogether a strange place for a young man of means, who by rights' should at such an hour be snugly in bed and asleep, to be wandering in at three o'clock in the morning. It is the abode of robbers. Every house in it is a den of thieves. The Seine, running by at its foot with dark and turbid flood, is altogether too handy. It was to this unattractive street that at an unseemly hour Charles D'Auburon strayed with unconscious feet. He had arisen from a sleepless bed, and had strolled far and near, intending to tire himself out. Then his reward would come; repose, sound and refreshing, and, glorious thought, perhaps an appetite, to which latter luxury he had been for some days a stranger. lie walked on, totally unconscious of danger, a thick stick his only weapon, In all the confidence of n man who has never felt the crack of a brass knuckle In tho hand of a garroter or made the acquaint ance of a sandbag. Dark figures wero creeping from the alleys behind him. Mysterious whistles resounded and re-echoed from the courts. Something told him of his danger. Ho stopped and looked up at a name on the corner house, just legible in tho dingy lamp light. To what part of Paris had he wandered? He was In the Ruo Brodier. Involuntarily he turned to retrace his steps, only to find himself confronted by a half score of sturdy ruffians. Ho grasp ed his stick the tighter and backed closer to tho wall. Ills face was very pale; but ho did not show any sign of fenr. , "You will go on," he answered, defiant ly, "or I will call the police." "The police! But few of thoso cattle make their beats in the Rue Brodier, even in the daytime," retorted tho leader of the ruffians. "Come, your money, young master." D'Auburon put his hand in his pocket und flung into tho air what silver and gold ho had about him. It fell upon tho pavement under the street lamp. They rushed at it like beasts. Then D'Au buron lost his nerve. Ho Uiought he saw tils opportunity. lie sprang into the middle of tho street and ran like a deer. The mob rushed after him, lie would hav dlstanj!(ihem all, perhaps, ha waa the kitchen.
