"""Coquenll,' said De Ocldclmann
Unick Blowly, "1 glvo you credit for
unusual cleverness, but If yon tell mo
you havo any Inkling what I am wait
ing for"
"I know that you are waiting for the
Clrl." .
-The girir Tho other started.
The girl Allco or Mary, your step
daughter." "God Almighty! burst out tho bar
on. "What a guess!"
M. Paul shook his head. "No, not a
luess a fair deduction. My ring Is
cone. It was on my hand beforo you
caro mo that chloroform. Sou took
it That means you needed It Why?
To get the glrL You knew It would
bring her, though how you knew It Is
noro than I can understand."
"Gibclln heard you speak of the ring
to Pougcot that night In the automo
Wlc." "Ah! And how did you know where
the girl was?"
"Guessed It partly and had Pougcot
lollowed."
And she's coming here?"
. Tho baron nodded. "Sho ought to bo
'fcere shortly," then with a quick, cruel
mile, "I suppose you know why I
want her?"
"I'm afraid I do," sold CoqucnlL
"Suppose wo come in here," suggest
ed tho other.
"With this be led the way through tho
arched passageway Into another stone
chamber very much like the first, only
mailer, and lined In the same way
with piled up logs. In the middle of
.the floor were a rough table spread
with food and two rough chairs. On
the table lay the diary.
"Sit down," continued the baron.
"OoquenU, I've watched you for years.
I know all about you, and I'll say
this you're the most interesting man
I ever met You've given me trouble,
bat that's all right; you played fair,
and I like you, I like you."
"Thanks," Coquenll said simply.
"It's a pity you couldn't see things
any way. I wanted to be your friend;
I wanted to help you. Just think how
xaany times I've gone out of my way
to give you chances, fine business
chances."
"I know."
"Now see where you arel See what
you've .forced me to do! It's a pity; it
cuts me'up, Coquenll." He spoke with
real sadness.
"I understand," answered M. PauL
"I appreciate what you say. There's a
bond between n good detective and"
"A great detective," put in the baron
admiringly, "the greatest detective
Paris ha3 known in fifty years or will
know in fifty more, res, yes, It's a
pity!"
"I was saying," resumed tho other,
"that there is a bond between a de
tcctlvo and a criminal. I suppose it
gets stronger between a a great de
tective." he smiled, "and a great crim
inal." So Heidelmann-Bruck looked pleas
ed. "You regard me as a great crimi
nal?" Coquenll nodded gravely. "I cer
tainly do the greatest since Ludovlco
SchertzL You know be had your iden
tical little finger."
"Iteally!"
Coquenll was silent a moment "This
American what of him now?"
"Ho will be tried."
"And be found guilty?"
"Yes, but with Jealousy as an ex
tenuating circumstance. He'll do a
few years, say five."
"Ah. that brings mo to the main
point how did Martinez get posses
sion of your secret?"
"He met the girl accidentally and
remembered her."
"As the ono he bad rescued from the
charity bazaar fire?"
"Yes."
Coquenll tboug'Jt a inomcut "Oh!
Did you know that private room No. 7
would not be occupied that night by
"Wllmott and tho dancing girl?"
"So."
Then bow did you dare go In
thero?"
"Wllmott and tho girl wero not duo
uutll 0, and I bad finished by half
past a"
"How did you know Wllmott would
aot bo there until 0?"
"Martinez told me. It was in Anita's
petit bleu that Mrs. Wllmott showed
Win."
"Had you no direct dealings with
Anita?"
Tho baron shook his head. "I never
saw the glrL The thing Just happened,
and I took my chance."
"You bought the auger for Martinez
mud told him where to boro the holes?"
yes."
And tho key to the alleyway door?"
"I got a duplicate key through Du
fcots. Anything else?"
MAhJ" aald Coquenll. "By the way,
how long hare you known that I was
'"working here In your stable?"
Tho baron smiled. "Since tho first
day."
"And about the safe?"
it was all arranged."
( "Then thon you wanted me to read
.thedlary?"
,' "Yea," answered tho other, with n
truuge expression. "I know that It
7011 read my diary 1 should bo pro
tected." "J don't understand."
the Wall
by D. Appleton & Co.
"Of courso not but" Suddenly his
voice grew harsher, and M. Paul
thought of the meeting ou the Champs.
Elysecs. "Do you realize, sir." tho
baron went on, and his voice was al
most menacing, "that not once, but
half a dozen times slnco this affair
started, I have been on tbo point of
crushing you, of sweeping you out of
my path?"
"I can believe that"
"Why haven't I dono It? Why havo
I held back tho order that was trem
bling ou my lips? Because 1 admire
you. I'm Interested In tho workings of
your mind. I yes. by God. In spite of
your stubbornness and everything I
like you, Coquenll, and I don't want
to barm you.
"You may not believe It." he went
on, "but when you sent word to tho
Brazilian embassy the other day that
you would accept tho Wo Janeiro of
fer after all 1 was honestly happy for
you, not for myself. Then suddenly
you went mad again and and did this.
So I said to myself, 'All right; be
wants It; he'll get if and I let you
read the diary."
"Why?"
"Why?" cried the baron hoarsely.
"Don't you see why? You know
everything now. everything. It Isn't
guesswork; It isn't deduction; Ifs ab
solute certainty. And because it's
true, and becauso we both know it to
be true, neither one of us can draw
back. Wc cannot draw back if we
would. Suppose I said to you, 'Oo
quenil, I like you; I'm going to let you
go free.' You would say: "Baron de
Heidelmann-Bruck, I shall not only
take this fortune from you and make
you very poor Instead of very rich,
but I shall denounce you as a mur
derer and shall do my best to have you
marched out from a cell In the Ro
quette prison some fine morning, about
dawn, between a Jailer and a priest to
the guillotine."'
"Yes." nodded the other.
"Ah!" smiled the baron. "I must
destroy you or bo destroyed."
"I see," murmured M. Paul.
For some moments the two were si
lent; then M. Paul asked gravely,
"How soon will the girl be here?"
"She's undoubtedly here now. She
is waiting outside." He pointed to a
heavily barred iron door.
"But sho doesn't know anything
about you or against you," added M.
Paul, and be seemed to be almost
pleading.
"She has caused me a lot of trouble,
and she might know."
"You mean her memory?'
"Yes; It might come back."
"Of course." agreed the other with
Judicial fairness. "I asked Duprat
about It, and be said It might"
"Goodby, Coquenll." He held out his
hand. "I'm sorry."
"Goodby," answered the detective
with quiet dignity. "If it's all the
same to you, I I won't shake bands."
"No?' He moved toward tho heavy
door.
"Waltr said M. Paul. "You have
left your diary." He pointed to tho
table.
The baron smiled mockingly. "I
intended to leave it The book has
served its purpose. Don't bo alarmed.
It will not be found." He glanced
with grim confidence at the stacked
wood. "You'll have fifteen or twenty
minuted after she comes In. Goodby."
Tho door swung open, and Coquenll
saw a dim. white clad figure among
tho shadows, and Alice, with beauti
ful, frightened eyes, staggered toward
him.

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE.
Medford People Should Learn to De
tect tho Approach of Kidney
Disease.
The symptoms of kidney trouble
aro so unmistakable that they leave
no ground for doubt. Sick kidneys
excrete a thick, cloudy, offensive
urine, full of sediment, irrcgulnr of
passage or attended by a sensation
of scalding. The back aches con
stantly, headaches and dizzy spells
may occur and the victim is often
weighed down by a. feeling of lnnguor
and fntigue. Neglcst these warnings
and there is danger of dropsy,
Bright's disease or dinbetes. Any
one of these symptoms is warning
enough to begin treating tho kidneys
nt once. Delay often proves fatal.
You-can uso no better remedy than
Doan's Kidney Pills. Hcrels Medford

Mrs. Sella M. Van Winkcl, 324 W.

"I first learned of tho merits of
Doan's Kidney Pills while living in
Patterson, N. J., and so well did they
serve mo at that time that I have
used them on every occasion since
then, when I have had backache or
