Is she cruelly indifferent, or does she look upon this as a good way to get rid of temptation? C H A PTE R V III— Continued. SENATE PASSES RIVER AND HARBOR BILL BY 35-32 VOTE Sylvia Arnaud came out Into the clearing. She was still singing— a lit tle louder than before, as If In defiance of a reawakening dread—and in the sudden hush her voice sounded luringly sweet. “ As well as can be expected There was considerable loss o f blood follow ing on the extraction.

In the course o f the day I may have a look at tbe sufferer, and I shall then give further orders. The culprit you can leave to me. Sit down, won’t you, Arnaud?” The young officer remained standing. He returned the doctor’s greeting me chanically and his features were blank. As tbe door closed Colonel Destlnn threw down bis pencil aud their eyes met. "S it down.” This time Arnaud obeyed. Tbe elder man bent forward with his chin rest ing on his hand. “ In tbe ordinury course o f events i should have bad you arrested last night," be said. " I f I did not do so It was because there was something un usual In tbe ease that Interested me. Even in tbe Legion madness tins Its method.

The man I had ousted was op posite me, and I waited for him to laugh. He came forward aud accepted the responsibility. You understand— be was one o f them, and he tied their bands. His friend held the door open for him and he went out. It was all done in a minute. I was saved. "I paid. It was true— my w ife's Ideal had been saved— but only for tbe time. Little by little she got to know me— and to compare. Oh, she said nothing: but I saw it, heard It, felt it in every movement, every look, every tone.

I heard him call her name— aud then— it was all doue in a Hash— I shot him down.” The dry cracked voice broke off. Arnaud staggered to bis feet, bis bands outstretched In a movement o f tragic resignation. “ That is my explanation. Make an end.” be said. Colonel Destlnn did not move. In tbe yellow sun-scorched atmosphere Ids own face looked livid, aud there were flesh Hues about tbe mouth which gave It a deeper, more ruthless power and concentration. The pencil with which he had been playing lay snapped In half in the middle o f the table. “ Your ten minutes are over, and you have Justified yourself,” he said. "You are frfe .” "Y'ou are liberating a madman. What I have done I shall do again— ” "W hat Is that to me?” said Colonel Destlnn, smiling. They watched each other In silence.
