Through the events of tbs msrnlng hoots, Wheaton had been merely a spectator of what was dona— Saxton had hardly noticed him, and glancing at Wheaton sow, he was shocked at tho look qfUpsat ago that had corns upon him. *1 want to speak to you a minute— pan and Bishop DelsSeld,” said Wheaton. 1 1 s bishop was pacing np and down in tk » outer hall, which had been quietly deans dand put In order by men from the village. Wheaton led the way to t^e room once used as the ranch office. "W ill you ait down, gentlemen?** He •poke with so much calmness that Ihe others looked at him curiously.

I had refused to help him. He ear- lied away Grant Porter thinking to in jure see la that way. It was that, I think, as much ss the hope of getting a large asm for the boy’s return." A great quiet lay upon the boom; the tw o men remained sitting, and Wheaton 'stood before them with hie arms crow d , the bishop and Saxton »watching him, and Wheaton looking from one to the other o f hie companions. Contempt and anger were rising In John Saxton’s hsart; but the old bishop waited calmly; this was not the first time that a troubled soul ^ad opened its door to him. “ Go on," he mid, kindly. “ M y brother and I .ran it way from fbe little Ohio town where we were born. Our father waa a harness maker. I hated the place. *1 think I hated my father aad mother.” He paused, as we do •ometimes when we have suddenly spoken a thought which we have long carried in our heart but have newer uttered. The word# had elements of surprise for James Wheaton, and he waited, weighing his words and wishing to deal justly with himself. “ My brother was s bad boy: he bad newer gone to school, as I had; ha had several time« been guilty o f petty stealing. I joined him once in a theft; ws were arrested, but he took the blame and was punished, and I want free. I am not sure that I was any better, or that I am now any better than he is. But that is the only time I ewer stole." Saxton remembered that W arry bad ones mid o f James Wheaton that Ue would not steal. “ I wanted to be honest; I tried my best to do right I never expected to de as well as I haws— I mean la business And things Ilka that Than after'all the years in which I had not seen anything o f my brother he came into the bank one day as a tramp, begging, and recognised me.

I «rant to be punished!” And he sank to Ms floor In a heap, re-pea dag, as If to himself, - “ I treat to be pa stok ed!“ There are two great erlees In the life of a man. One la that moment of *Ms- eioeure whan for the first time he rec ognises some vital weakness in his own character. Tbs other comae when, under strees, ha submits Mis defect to the ejrrt of another. James Wheaton hardly knew whan be had realised tha first, but he was conscious now that he had passed the second. It had earriod him Ilka a high tide to a point of rest; hut H wrs a point of helplessness, too. “ It isn't for us to punish you,” the bishop began, “ and I do not ass that you haws transgressed any law.’ “ That la H i that la It l It would be e e s te r m o a n e d Wheaton. John turned away. Jaipaa Wheaton’s face waa not good to sea. “ Tea, it would bo easier,” the bishop continued. “ I can sea that in going to Clarkson many things will be hard for you------” “ I can’t ! Oh, I can't!” H e. still etooebad on the floor, with his arms ex tended along tho bench. "B ut that Is the manly thing for yon I f you haws acted a cowardly part, now is tha time for yoa to change, and you most change on the field o f battle. I can Imagine the discomfort o f facing your old friends; that you will suffer keen hu ■dilation; that you may have 'to begin again; but you maat do it, my frisnd, if you wish to rim above yd-reelf, and you may depend upon my help.” The old man had spoken with empha sis. but with great gentleness. H e turned to Saxton, wishing him to speak. ‘T h e bishop is right Too uiust go bark with as, Wheaton.” But he did not any that he would help him. John Sax ton neither forgot nor forgave easily. Ha did not aee la this dark hour what he had to do with James Wheaton’s affairs. But tha Bishop o f Clarkson wont over to James Wheaton and lifted him np t It «res as though he would make the physi cal act carry a spiritual aid with I t “ Wa can talk of this to bettor purpose when we pet boms,” he said. "You are "broken now and aee your future darkly; but I say to you that yon can be re stored; there’s light and hope ahead for you.

Whea ton m t bent forward on the bench, with Ms elbows on his knees aad his face In bis '“ They are waiting for os,” said Bar ton. A special train waa sent to Great R iv er, aad M s little party waited for It oa tha station platform, surrounded by eared villagers, who stood silent in the isintri o f death and a mystery which May but dimly comprehended. Officers of tbs law from Clarkson came with the train and surrounded Bishop Dsiafleld, Wheaton and Saxton aa they stood with Grant Porter by the rude bier of W arty Raridan. The men answered many ques tions and the sheriff o f the county took the detectives away with him Margrave had mat his private car, aad the return ing party were huddled in one and of it, save John 8axton, who m t alone with the body of W arry Raridan. The train waa to go back Immediately, but it wait ed for the west-bound express which fol ded :t and passed the special here. There was s moment’s confusion as the special with its dark burden was switch ed into a siding to allow the regular train to pass. Then the special returned to the main track and began its home ward journey. John m t with hie arms folded, sunk Into his great-cost, sad watched the gray landscape through the snow that was fall ing fast. The events of the night seemed lyike a hideous dream. I t waa an incon ceivable thing that within a few hours so dire s calamity could have fallen. The very nearness o f the city to which they were bound added to tbe unreality of all that bad happened. But there the dark burden la y ; and tbe snow fell upon tbe pray earth and whkened it, as if to cleanse and remake it and blot out its color and dread. The others left Saxton alone; he was nearer than they; but late in tbe afternoon, as they approached the city, Captain Wheelock cams in and touched him on the shoulder; Bishop Deiafield wished to eee him. John roee, giving Wheelock his place, and went back to where the old man mt staring ont at the snow. He beckoned Saxton to sit down by him. “ Where's Wheaton?” the blebop asked. John looked at him aad at tbe other men who eat in silence about the car. He went to one o f them and repeated the btsbop’s question, but waa told that Wheaton was not on the train. Hs had been at the station aad had coma aboard tbe ear with the rest; but be must have returned to tbe station pud bean left. John remembered the passing of the west-bound express, and want back and told tbs bishop that Whaatoa had not come with them. U m old man shook his head sad turned again la the window and the flying panorama of tha snowy landscape. John sat by him, and neither at a crossing on tha outskirts of Clark son. Than suddenly, hot at heart and with tears o f sorrow sad rags hi his eyes, Saxton said, so that only tha bishop •paid hear: * ¿y* “ He’s a c o w a rd r , ' i f Tha Bishop o f Clarkson stared steadily ont upon the snow with troubled eyes.

They had, they were aware, no righto Us against the bondholders: sad as Mar- grace understood this perfectly w ell« he was very anxious to buy la tbe property at receiver's mis fo r an amount that would satisfy Porter and bis alliaq, and give him a chance to “ square himself,” as he put I t This required additional mon ey, but he was able to command it from his “ people,” for tbs receiver had dem onstrated Uat the property could be made to pay. While these negotiations were pending, Saxton and Fenton wore able to satisfy their curiosity as to the relations which had existed between Wheaton aad Margrave. Margrave had no Shams la confessing Just what had passed between them: be viewed It all aa a Joke, and explained, without compunc tion, exactly the manner In which hs had coens by the shares *u icb had belonged to Evelyn Porter and James Wheaton. , When Saxton came back from Colo rado, Porter waa 111 again, and Fenton was seriously disposed to-accept a price which Margrave’s syndicate had offered. Margrave's position had grown forteble; hs had to gat himself sad “ his people" out of u scrape at any cost. His plight pleased Fenton, who tried to make Porter see the Irony of i t ; and this view o f It, ss much as the high offer, finally prevailed upon him. He saw at late the futility of securing and managing property for himself; his health had be come a matter of concern, and Fenton Insisted that a street railway would prove no easier to manage than a Portar «ras, ss John had said, ” a pe culiar brick,” aad after the final onderà o f the court had been mades and Saxton's fees allowed. Porter sent him a check for five thousand dollars, without comment Fenton mads him keep It ; Porter had done well la Traction and be t owed 3 m each to John; but John protested that he 1 ferred being thanked to being tipped! but tbe lawyer persuaded him at last that tha Idiosyncrasies of the rich ought to be respected. Porter felt Ms burdens slipping from him with unexpected satisfaction. He grew jaunty la his old way aa ha chid his contemporaries and friends for hold ing on; as for himself, he told them, he Intended “ to die rested,” and he adjusted his affairs so that they would give him little trouble in the future. The cottage which hs had bought on the North Shore waa a place they had all admired the previous summer. Porter had liked it be cause there was enough ground to afford lawn and flower beds which be cultivated with so much satisfaction at homo. The place was called “ Red Gables," sad Por ter had bought It with its furniture, so that there wea little la do in taking pos session but to move in. The Whipples wars their first guests, going to them in mid-July, when they were fully The elder-Bostonlans whom Porter had mst tha previous summer promptly ad their acquaintance with Mm. Hs had attained, 1a their eyes, a new dignity hi becoming a cottager. The previous own er o f "Red Gables” hud lately failed in business and they found in the advent o f the Porters a sign o f the replenishing of tbs East from the West, which Inter ested them philosophically. Porter lack ed their own repose, but they liked to hear Mm talk. He was amusing and in teresting, aad they had already found his prophecies concerning the markets trust worthy. Tha ladies of their families heard with horror his views on the In dian question, wMch ware not romantic; nor touched with the spirit o f Boston philanthropy; but his daughter was loss-' ly, they said, and her accent was wholly inoffensive. So the Porters wars well received, and Evelyn was glad to find her father ac cepting his new leisure so complacently. 8he and Mrs. Whipple agreed that be and the general were as handsome and Inter esting as any of the elderly Bostonians among their neighbors; and they un doubtedly were so. fJ* (T o be continued.)
