Theso ho had .sue ce-ixfiilly kojit at arm V length; novertbo ! s they rallied, like carrion crows, tl lie 1 with the fond hope that ho bad not forgotten bis relations In his last hours, and all expected that their namos would bo found in tbo will in connec Hon with fat lejracle t.

This, briefly, was tho lan will and testament of Joel Wilcox. It a not unt .1 bis body was laid to r' it that Mm llelaio thoroughly com-ii-vhen l"d hotv true and staunch a friend alio had lost, and she now felt vi ry muoU alone In the world. True, I T daiglitor remained; but the stout !i -arU who bad passed their word to :v.'iiit her In every way to accomplish the purpow of hor life had left bor side r.nd she bad grave fears that ber i ilorta might now fall short of ber one I'bcrUbed desire. Tho liouso In which Mr. Wilcox bad died soon became ton dreary a place for Ai 'iilda to be confined in and bor mother noticed It It would never do to aeo the healthy eolor leave t'.iojo cheeks n change must be sought, anil tbat very noun. Yet something ought to bo learned of I'erry 1-ovol, thought Mr. D.-laro. What wa to be learnod came soon to band, but It wa eminently un satisfactory. Tho letter from tho American Consul at lluonus Ay res merely stated that n gentleman traveling as Mr. Ityron llnntly bad uppuared in that city, but hi stay had Ixion only a brief one. lie bad taken a trip into the Interior, be 'aid, and nothing had boon beard from htm since. Hut as such occurroneos were not infrequent it had caused no se rious Investigations to ho made, though should any other news como to hand tbo Consul promtsod to advisa Mr. Wilcox. This letter did not arrive until after Mr. Wilcox's death, and It troubled Mrs. Italaro not a Utile. 8I10 bad board that Mr. Hmorlek was again, in New York, and ube bad advised tin. Ilrogy of the foot, but bad not aeon tbat ijood woman since, Komo few woek later another letter arrived from Uucnoa Ayro conveying the sod Intel llgonco that tho body of a man, dreaiod exactly as tbo aupposud Mr. liunlly was known to have dreasod, bad been taken from the river n few miles below Kan Nicholas, tho last place from whonco tUlngs of the trarelur had boon received. This communication was a great blow to Mrs. Itolaro. What should she do now that sbo hod no adviser loft? And how should ahe complete tbo only pur pose sbo acknowledged in ber life? Then thoro wa all that ldlo wealth of IVrey's, left biui by Mr. Wilcox what would, become of tbat? Sbo finally felt that tho thought of all tbat bad hap- K'.'nod within the past few months would ; too much for her among such close nxsntdatlons and constant reminders of it, no rdto rosolved to go away and sock in chau-TO of sceuuj at least a little re-pj-.

To-day be bad learned tbat he was down at hi office very often tar Into the night, and be was determined to approach him and demand an Interview that very evening. Dm, rearing that some barm might befall her, Mr lllodjfer had guns down to Mr K-neilck's office to try and Indue the mysterious merchant to give the woman a hearing and dispel bor strange fancy. "I trust ho will bo successful," said Mrs. IVlaro, quietly, "for It Is better that the poor woman should know the truth." A Mr. Utodger entered the office of EmerlcU and Company, tbo surviving member of that rtrtn sat in a chair In his private office gloating over tlx. Item of now In a liuenos Ayrcs nomtpaper stating that the body of Mr. liyron Muntly had been picked up in the la. t'lata rirer. What bis reasons were for desiring that the Kngliahmnn should come to such an untimely end were best known to himself, but pleasure wa plainly visible in his countenance as he road the news. Mr. Kmerlefc was "not In" to anybody, as was often the case, ltut owing to one of those mistake which will often occur In the face of such private ar rangements, an olMco boy pointed to Mr. Utuerlck's ofBeo and Mr. Hlodger entered. Mr. Etnerlok' annoyano was undi gulsed. The news he hail rend In the foreign paper had only given htm a momentary ploasure, and when he no ticed that bo was being Intruded upon ho was very angry. Mr. Hlodger, "bow ever, was In blissful Ignorance of tht fact, and said in his bland mannort "Mr. Kmcrlck. I bollovo?" "Yes, that 1 my name. What do you want?" replied .Mr. limerick, cwrtly. "My call will only be of brief dura tion, ami I will tell tho objoct of It In what wo You wtvr?" wvs Tiie i'iit UKI'LV. a fow words," was tho nnawer which Mr. Hlodger gave, as bo banded over bis card. "You can not bo too brief to suit me," waa tho almost rudo response. Mr. Hlodger Healed himself opposite to Mr. Umerlek and coinmenced at once. "mie few month J ago a woman who wan selling newspapers over In llrook lyn tnougtil sno recognised you as her long-lost husband." Mr. Kiuorlck was startled, but he readily unstirred: "Yos, but what bus that to do with your visit?" "livery thlug," wa the reply. "This n 0111 an ho recently fallen bolr to n largo amount of valuable property in Amiens. France, and It has booonio nec essary that Nhe should go to that place at once In order to prevont hor raven ous relations from robbing bor of It." Mr. Kmcrlck was very much Interest ed now, but he had been In peculiar po sitions too often to betray bis Interest to his listener, so ho asked with apparent unconcern 1 "Why does aba not go to France nt once, then?" "Thoro la only one reason, and tbat is tbat sbo swears sbo wilt see you first, " answered Mr. Hlodger. "And you, I prtsume, wish mo to grant the woman an Interview," asked Mr. limerick. "1'rovlaely," wa tboanswer. "Yery well, then," replied Mr. Kmcr lck, whoso manner was now very much changed. "Tell hor to come to my rooms to-night, and 1 w:il see her alone, you understand," be answered. "It shall be as you say. Socond floor, lirantbam Flats." said Mr. Hlodger a ho read the addrosa wblcb Mr. Kmerlck had written on bis card. "Sbo will not have far Ij go, but" bore ho hesitated a moment, and then continued: "Would It not be better for bor son to ac company her? "Xa 1 will see ber alone or not at all," was tho reply. As Mr. Hlodger rode back up town he could not help thinking that thero was something very unllko a merchant nud a gentleman In Mr. limerick's manner. Upon reaching bis home, however, ho aont a note to Ilarlom at onco Inform ing Mrs. Hregy of the result of bis call. Then bo wunl over to Mrs Ihdaro's and told hor all about lu That night was tho dirtiest and moat disagreeable night which New York bod soen for sumo time. It bad rained Incossantly for nearly twelvo hours and tbo streets woro running with water. When Mrs, Ilrogy alighted front tbo street-car sbo bad soioral blocks to walk before she reached tbo tlruntham Flats, and ber mud-bedraggled skirts gave ber such a forlorn appearance that tho porter thought sbo mu:it havo made a mistake until abo mentlonod Mr. Hmcrlok' name, when bo at onco led ber to tbo olovator and took ber up to tbat gen tleman's rooms. As nhe euterod Mr. ISmorlck rcoe from bU oay chair and approached her. lie bad bad ample time to maki bis mind up bow to r.ct and was fully prepared. "Ho stated, uiadani," be said, in au mm h$L n 1 ! ! ; orlieary polite manner. NV did not seat herself, but atood ' and lookod at him with pleading eyes, ! as sbo said: "Alphonse, do you not , know me? Kmllle-your wife?" lie returned tho gaaet then putting 1 hi band to bis forehead in a dramatic I manner, he said: ' 'if so. how changed:" lie spoke the .tHl In an undertone, sslf tomskn the woman believe he did not intend ber to hear them. He bl Intention what it may, she beant the words, and a abe took a step towards him sbo atd: "Then you art Alphonse Hregy?" "Yes, 1 am," he replied. "Why then are you known at Mr. Kmcrlck? You aro notaebstnod of your own name, are you?" asked the woman. "Thai la a question which 1 can not answer now," he replied. "Hut yon are my husband, aren't youT' still questioned the woman in n tone of piteous appeal, as if bis accept ance of her husband's name wot not suf ficient. 'in the eye of the law 1 bellevo 1 am still," whs tho reply. "Then won't you lake mo bsek to your arm and be again to me what you were once? My love for yon has never wavered In the least." "I am afraid that can never bo," said Mr. limerick. "1 should have to re nounco one name or the other, anil the world would open tUeyen In wonder and astonishment." He knew that the woman was as deep ly in loie with him aa over, and that bo could control ber at his pleasure. 80 lie did not hesitate to make admissions. "I will Uikc your name If need be and ask no questions regarding your life since you toft me. Only fold mn to your heart and bring hack tho memories of our early married life and I will do any thing you ask." Thero wa atill a coldness about Mr. limerick, but he threw 11 oil n best bo could, and taking tho woman In his arms ho pressed ber to blm and fondly kissed ber, saying: "You shall again bo all that you ever woro to me. Hut It must be on conditions tbat 1 will nainu." She was In his power ami ho knew It This fllnt-heartetl man could afford to lie sentimental and knew bow to be when It suited bis purposo. "1 will accept any condition! aA long as you will call 1110 wlfu again," she said. "Then sit down horo beside me and : will name thorn.'' As Mr. limerick spoko tbeso word ho drew two ebalrs together and motioned Mrs. Hregy to take one of them. Seating himself be sido her ho said: "You must tlrst prom ise mo that you will never ask mo any iuostloni regarding tbo past twenty years of my life." "Tba I will readily premise, '' an swered the now happy woman. ".Next you must not tell anyone that I am Alphonso Hregy, your hunbatid. You must not even tell Kugeno." "Hut tbat can not Im. How can I koop tho knowledge from tho world?" asked Mrs. Hregy, "Tbat Is easy enough to mating." was tho reply, "If you ill only follow my instructions and act precisely as I suggest. When you leave here to-night you must maintain your composure. Do not tell any one you havo found your husband. Tell them all tbat you made a bldoous mlatako and that I am not Alphonse Hregy at all, but merely Mr. limerick.' "Then how can we be united?" asked tbo woman impetuoualy. "lleadily enough. This acquaintance of to-night shall ripen Into Intimacy. In searching for your real busbnud th world snail tie taugnl to oelieve that you have founds new one. 1 will prove tbat Alphouso Hregy, your husband of years ago, was killed In a fraca at Ieadvilln or some other place and you shall be married to your now husband ua soon as a sufficient length of time has elapsed to mnko It appear decurou," said Mr. limerick as bo throw hi mself eagerly Into the discussion. "I will consent to any thing so long as I gel you back to my side," answered the woman. "Hut bow about liugciic'.'" "He shall know of the facts In dun time," said .Mr. limerick. "Hut" horo Mrs. Hregy hesitated ere she spoke, "1 have to go to 1'rauce to see about my property." "l'roporty what property?" asked Mr. limerick. "Don't you know that I am heiress to I'ncle Du Hois' property at Amlona, worth noarly Ave hundred thousand francs?" asked Mr. Hregy. "No, how should I know tbat? In the face of this good fortune do you still roule to mo and consent to call me hus band a;raln?" asked M. limerick (or i: bticb e htlll must know him) in an ion I shed tone which lu tbo wonnn li-' the ring of genuineness about It. 4if 1 ownod half Xew York von would 1m as welcomo to it as you would be to 1. .nr., ' -Vr A it " WIIKX loll LKAVK 1 1 KM TO-XiOItT XUV MIST kUIXMS VOVUCUMKMl'MC." oh are of my last cruat," answered lb faithful woman, "Then you do love mo truly," said tho tii', Mercians, as ho kistcd her fondly, "and 1 sinv you are goin to France I will sec mriany you and marry vou again abroad."
