Tho widow tried to answer, but instead of Fptakiiiff fihe hurst into tears. Rot'i.Iiml struggled a moment with the dwj) emotions that stirred within her, and nhe too, fell to weeping.

"Aye," interposed Claudia, with sudden energy; "ho went to try to gain tho count's forgiveness. I don't think they spoke falsely there. I don't think any thcro would wish him harm fom any lingering re venge." "No, no!" returned the monk. "Ilis mission thither was most nobly fulfilled. So far from cherishing any spirit of revengo is tho count that ho will ever bear for Rurio tho holiest gratitudo of hid soul." Do you think eor' tho widow asked hopefully. I know it," was tho monk as sured reply. "But," he continued, relapsing into perplexity," "I cannot imngino what lias become of him. lut, hold I My dear child, is thero not a humpbacked, ungainly priest who sometimes visits your guard ian?" This was addressed to Rosalind, and a fearful tremor shook her frame as she heard it, for its import was at onco apparent. Do you suspect She had started forward ond grasped tho monk's arm as she thus commenced, but she could not continue. The thought sho would have uttered was terrible. "Go on," whispered Vladimir, bending bis head low down so as to catch her very thoughts if they left her Hps. "What would you say r' "Oh, I ought not, and yet I know his soul is canablo even of that." Thus much the fair count ess murmured to herself, and then she gazed up and spoko to tho strange man before her. "Do you suspect my guardian?" "Do you suspect liim?" the monk returned. "Oh, I know not what to think !" "But listen," resumed Vladimir earnestly. "I would know all that you know, ond then perhaps I can assist you. Fear not, for as truo as God lives I mean to save Iluric if I can, and if I can but gain a clew to him now I can surely save you .both. Trust me, for I possess a wondrous power for the good of those who trust me. Now, what end could the duke have in view in wishing for Kuric's removal? I know what he had in view in concocting the dud it was tho death of Dumonoff and tho undivided possession of Drot- cen. JNow, answer me, what docs ho aim at now V In snito of all doubts Rosalind found herself trusting tho monk. There was an air of conscious truth and potrcr in his look and tone that won upon her. "Good father, she returned after Ruriu love mo. Aluy lie not umicr such circumstances fear that tho no- blo vouth will trv to thwart him?" "Very likely," returned Vladimir thoughtfully. "I will profit by this, and I am much mistaken if you do not also profit by it.

A quick groan escaped from Claudia's lips as tho monk thus spoke, but licforo Rosalind could pperfk tho door nf the apartment was opened, and tho Duke of Tula strode inl Jlo stopped as ho eamo nigh to where tho comnony stood, and his eyes Hashed and his frame, trembled with passion. "How now?" ho cried as soon as ho could command speech. "Wliat means this gathering hero in my own palace? Meddling monk, how daro you drag your deU stable form hither? 'Out, reptile, out 1 And let mo catch you hero again and my dogs shall tear you up as they do carrion I Without a word the monk turned nway.

Dr. Edward Everett Hale's "Mem- orles of a Hundred Years" naturally contains things he heard as well as things that he saw. The serial pub lication of these articles in The Out look is attracting general attention, They have a wealth of anecdote about old days. Dr. Hale believes that he saw Lafayette, has had Nathan Hale's cap on his head, and has talked with several men who had personal knowledge of Washing. ton and could tell of Revolutionary incidents. The third Instalment of the Memories, which haa just appear ed, is largely devoted to semi-historic matter of this kind, and has many unusual portraits and reproductions of old prints. It Is Jut as well that the American people make an effort to keep their heads. Schley is neither a god nor a leinlgod.

The hones' were uncovered and the last Landis writes to a friend in Corvalli that it truly was his brother, M. 15. Landis, who died by a bullet from his own pistol In the thicket of brush near Suver. Polk County. But Is the mystery entirely explained? May not M. B. be alive somewhere a-nl this state ment by O. E., his brother, be a scheme to throw the detectives off the hunt?
