There was nobody there but himself. The shadows of evening were darkening the place. Ho walked around, sharply peering into every corner. It was the voice of conscience that startled him. In his excited mood it broke in upon him, and its very suddenness shook bis frame as if he had run up against a specter and had been cnilled by its icy touch. "You aro wanted.” Raymond fell back.

Here in Denver, where he “Have you thought of tho burial place? Tho case is considered one of suicide.” “Suicide!” "Yes.” "And that means the denial of Chris tian burial!

She had not thought of this new feature—denial of Christian burial.” “It may not be the proper time to suggest it, Mother St. Gertrude, but from my worldly, mure experienced point of view she ought, for the sake of his memory, placo herself under my protection and with me proceed to make investigations. She cannot do it here, and she will not trust any ono but her self, I feel, under the circumstances. Vou cannot, with peace of mind, allow her to proceed alone. ” "1 interfered once. I will not do so again. It shall be as she says. But the denial of Christian burial!■ It is terrible! Terrible!” ”1 am certain that wecaii prove that it was not suicide. Perhaps his ex oneration will incriminate another—we may be able to prove that he was foully dealt with." "1 will go to Isabel.” Raymond had deteimined to marry Isabel. He was afraid that Mangan might learn just enough to justify the issue of an injunction that could be con tinued for some time. The publication of these proceedings might elicit tacts to undermine his hold on the property if an order to restrain him from getting the deeds was decreed. Mother St. Gertrude eyed him critic ally. She was suspicious still of this mau. Shu believed his profession of love for Isabel. His reputation as a man of wealth dispelled the idea that he was after her property. Again, the nun had not learned of the value of the lands that were destined to be convert ed iuto paiks. Therefore his love ap peared to be disinterested. It was the intensity of his ardor—its velocity, one might say—that she could not account for, but his eagerness to remove any und all aspersions from Laurence’s character sprang from a broad spirit of generosity, she concluded. Where gen erosity was great, other affections were proportionately developed, she reasoned, and their outpour as impetuous. "Before you go,” ho added, “there are a few things 1 should say. Some one must get an order from the public administrator for Laurence s effects. His sister can get it. Naturally, if she consents to a speedy marriage, I will take charge of that, see what is neces sary to be done to straighten out his af fairs, satisfy all claims, if any, and carry out the designs of Miss Le—Le land, I will say, with your permission and I hope to be allowed the privilege of calling her Isabel.” “It is a sad affair, this death,” said Mother St. Gertrude, her grief at last mastering her and driving out of mind all else. The tears, long suppressed in the preseuco of Raymond, forced their way, and as a stream, just breaking through confining barriers, roars in triumph at its freedom, these lachrymal rivulets signalized their victory over her power of mind by wrenching from her heart sob after sob that gave sincer ity to her flow of sorrow. Even Raymond was touched. Here was a woman who bad stood at many n bed of suffering, alleviating human ills, I who bad been so accustomed to death that it became almost an everyday in cident in her life, yet weeping like a child, crying piteously as the lamb that vainly runs and bleats amid tho heath er of the Scottish mountains, for the mother that has slipped from sight and ■ lies mangled in the treacherous ravine! What agony ho was causing her and Isabel Raymond appreciated, and if he could retrace his stops with safety expected to find no friends, his affairs were no secret. Hu had lead that Mor timer was seeking hi iltli in Colorado, but Mortimer he had always consid ered a friend of Raymond, and ho would be about the last ho would visit. Did Dr. Leland 1. ally know Mangan? tbo latter asked himself. 11 be did not, was it not likely that his zeal to win Isabel lies heritage might be looked upon as selfish? Mangan was not will ing to leave grounds for such an impres sion,and when the suggestion of its prub- ability Hashed to his mind bo said: “1 am grateful, doctor, for your kind words. But your sister has changed her opinion of me. 1 am here to bring about her happiness. You ale glad at the prospects; she will I h ? doubly so. 1 will now d;0p my quest—a’tcr we seo Moi timer, 1 mean and you will settlo the rest as suits you. Hut 1 must nev er see her again.” “ Why? What is the matter?” “I do not know. Some day Isabel may explain why she lias discouraged me. And yet 1 liavo never doubted her love. There is something wioiig. But it’s all ended now.” “What can I say? 1 know nothing.” "There is nothing yon can say or do. 1 will now return to The Times office and resign, so that they may assign an other man to the work. You see Morti mer, and I will call upon you later.” The newspaper man never forgets liis duty to his paper. He may be sur rounded by danger, the man most ex posed or injured, but ho never regards his own comfort. It is the credit that will attach to his paper through his la bors and tho discredit that may issue through his neglect that come first to his mind. Hence Mangan retraced Ins steps to The Times office to apprise the city editor of his determination to leave Denver and resign the work ho had un dertaken. “Where next?” he queried of him self. “God only knows. I'll finish the story of that park conimi- joii, send it to The Bugle ami give Haymond ono parting shot. But since Isabel’s situa tion is changed and her future showing up so brightly there is no reason why 1 should ever stay near her convent home. Dr. Leland gives up the fight for the property. He has enough. 1 am not wanted, and 1’11 seek iti other acenes tho waters of Lethe that will drown the memories of tho past.” CHAPTER XVI. MORTIMER S LAST WuRIM To MANGAN.

There was a sympathy be tween them that had spoken mure in actions than in v. ids, and Inez, as sho searched her heat t to account fortlie strange fascination he exercised upon her, was convinced that for the first time in her life he loved. In all lier intercourse with Raymond she Lad never been swayed with the' emotions that had lately stirred her. 51ie had respected Ray niond because tie had been her brother's friend, and her brother himself had fr< quently spo ken to her of Raymond's attentions and their significance. It was gratitude to a benefactor that she showed, not love such as was now surging within her, and in the innocence and simplicity of her nature she was being dragged into deception—a deception to licrself more than to Raymond. Now love in its fullness cleared the vision ot her affec tions and brought before lier a truer appreciation of the eccentricity of feel ing that refuses to play upon the sub tler senses till the song of the emotions has an affiuity fur its audience. When we last saw her, she was read ing the home paper tliat reported her brother’s resignation. Philip explained it to her. He did not thoroughly re count the details with which we are familiar, and the suppression of his own inner questionable relations with Ray mond gave to the story a stionger sem blance of injustice to her brother, whom Inez deemed the soul of honor. It was this devotion to her brother, the attri tion of years of btudy for his happiness, to preserve which Dr. Leland would sacrifice millions and furego vengeance on Raymond. He did not want it un dermined, and his physician’s judgment told him that its destruction might mean her own. Give woman an ideal in which her affections are centered, and her own reason is overthrown with it, if the iconoclast succeeds in toppling her lit tle god, whatever it may be. There are women who turn to fads, pastimes uf an idle hour. These lair daugbtors of Eve, susceptible to tlie regnant frail ties of humanity, pass from one allure ment to another, untouched by the diap er passions. But the woman with a heart and soul spurring the exercise of mind cannot be fickle, aud tho man or cause she warms to can be dealt no blow she does nut feel as keenly as tho direct object uf assault. It is this con centration of sentiment, created aud crystallized in undivided interest, that keeps the memory of first love safe from everything but the grave, aud that warms the mother more to the first born, round whom cluster the delights and the anxieties that ushered in the crowning glory of her womanhood— maternity.
