I cared nothing who he wns. ! and did not wont to know. My sole i desire wns to acquit Jacqueline of his < death, In the world's eyes. I That he lind come deservedly by It ( was positive. 1 Four o'clock was striking while I i aras climbing back Into the room | again. Jacqueline lay on the bed in .? the same position; she had not stirred 1 during that hour. I took the knife from the floor t wnere I nad dung It, scrubbed it. and . placed It In my suitcase. Then I \ ncrubbed the floor clean, afterward I rubbing It with a soiled rag to make t Its appearance uniform. 1 I thought I had flnnlly removed all races of the affair; hut, coming back, i I perceived something upon the floor which had escaped my notice. It wus 1 the leather collur of the Eskimo dog. 1 with Its big silver studs and the mak- 1 r's silver name plute. All this while the animal lind remained perfectly quiet- In the room crfluchlng at Jacqueline's feet and be ide the bed. I came to the conclusion that there t might have been a struggle; that It I had run to Its mistress's assistance, I and that the collar had been torn < from It by the dead man. i I picked the collar up and carried * t Into the next room and held It un- ( der the light. The letters of the maker's name were almost obliterated, 1 hut after a careful study I was able i ?o make them out. The name was Maclay ft Itohitallle, and the place of. manufacture Quebec. This confirmed my belief concerning Jacqueline's natlv'ty. I pried the plate from the leather and slipped it Into my pocket. I put the broken collar Into my suit case,' together with the dagger, and then I ' set about packing my things for the Jonrney which we were to undertake. When I had finished packing I went back to Jacqueline and sat beside her while she slept. 2a a little while It would begin to lighten, and the advent of the day filled me with a sort of terror. I watched the sleeping girl. Who was she? How could she sletp so calmly after that night's deed? The mystery -seemed unfathomable; the girl alone In the city, the robbers, the | nog, tne ueno man, una the one who had escaped me. Jacqueline's bag lay open on the bureau and disgorged bills. There were rolls and rolls of them?eight thousand dollars did not seem too much. I raised her hand and held It III my wn, and I sat thus until the roori began to lighten, watching her all the while. At last she stirred, her eyeR opened.and she sat up. She gazed at me with , apathy, but there was also recognl- ; lion In her look. "Do you know me, Jacqueline?" I asked. "My friend Paul." "Jacqueline, I am going to take you home," I said, hoping that she would tell me something, but I dared ask her no more. I meant to take her to Quebec and make Inquiries there. "I am going to take you home. Jacqueline," I repeated. "Yes, Paul," she answered In that docile manner of hers. "It Is lucky you have your furs, bemuse the winter Is cold where your home Is." "Yes, Paul," she repeated as before, and a' few more prohings on my part convinced me that she remembered . . nothing at all. Her mind was like u person's newly awakened In a strange land. But tbls state brought with it MM*w ircuf umj ? |?vnvriui uirriiu c uuu j faith which wus very touching. i "Now, Jacqueline," I snhf, "we shall < have to begin to make ready for our | Journey." * \ 1 had just remembered that the stor- i age company was to call that day. 1 he van would probnbly be at the house early In the morning, aud It was essential that we 'should he gone before It arrived. I showed Jacqueline the bathroom' nd drew the curtains. Then I went into the kitchenette and made coffee on the gas range, and, since it was too early for the arrival of my morn- , fhg loaf, which was placed Just within the street door by the baker's boy every day, 1 matte some toast and buttered It. When I took In the breakfast Jacqueline was waiting for me. look NEW USE FOR GRAPE CROP ] National Prohibition Will Not Cause | Any Loos to Qrowers In ( California. j * Los Angeles, Cal.?Reports of a culture of the University of Califor- < survey roads by tho College of Agrl- < In inada public by the Los Angeles I (dumber of Commerce Indicate that i California's grape crop of 1010 can i bo diverted without loss to uses other i 1 tie of Gold CTOR ROUSS Copyright, W.

She did not seem to understand that there was anything strange In the sit' jatlon In which we found ourselves. 1 lid not know whether this was due to ler mental state or to that strange ansophlstlcatlon which I had already >bserved In her. After the meal was ended and we tad fed the dog, Jacqueline Insisted >n-washing the dishes, and I showed ler the kitchenette and let her do so, hough 1 should never have need for he cheap plates and cups again. "Now, Jacqueline, we must go," I mid. I placed her neckpiece about her. I closed her bag, stuffing the bills Inside, tnd hung It on her arm. I wanted ler to let me bank her money for her, nit did not like to ask her. However, ?f her own account she took out the tills and handed them to me. It was past eight when we left the fiouse. I carried my suitcase and, stopping at a neighboring express ofIce. had It sent to the Grand Central itatlon. And rhen I decided to take 'he dog to the animals' home. 1 did not like to do so, but was tfrald.

CHAPTER IV. Simon Leroux. With Jacqueline's arm drawn Jirough mine I paid a visit to the innk in whlcft I had deposited my egacy and drew out fifteen hundred lobars, next depositing Jacqueline's noney to my own account. It amounted to almost exactly eight thousand lobars. I wanted to deposit her money In tier own name, but this would have Involved Inquiries and explanations \ ^ 7 ' I Followed the Tall Man. which I wns not In a position to satisfy. So there was nothing to do hut deposit It In my own, uud afterward I could refund It to her. I wondered, us we strolled up Fifth avenue together, how much she knew, what she remembered, and whal thoughts went coursing through hei head. That childlike faith of hers was mnrvelously sweet. I believed thai she wns dimly aware that terrible things lay In the past, and that she trusted to her forget fulness as a shield to shelter not only herself bill me. and would not voluntarily recall what'she hnd forgotten. It was necessary to buy her an outfit -of clothes, and this problem worried he a good deal. I was afraid thai die would not know what to buy; but, us the morning wore away, I realized that her mental faculties were nol rlimvtwwl In tlm luucf She observed everything, clapped her hands Joyously as a child nt tlie street sights and sounds, turned tc wonder nt the elevated and at the high buildings. I ventured, therefore upon the subject that was perplexing me. "Jncquellne," I said, "You know thai you will require an outfit of clothe? before we start for your home. How much money shall I give you, J'jcque line?" "Fifty dollars?" she Inquired. I gave her n hundred and took rldlc ulous delight In It. We entered a large department store and I mustered up enough cour age to address the young woman wht stood behind the counter that dls played the largest assortment of worn en's garments. * "I want a complete outfit for?foi Ails fsdv," I stammered. "Euougt than wine manufacture.

"a twe weeks* Journey^** "Bermuda or Niagara Falls 7" asked ' the young woman. "I beg your pardon?" I Inquired, coni sclous that my face was insufferably 1 hot. "If you are taking madame to Bermuda she will naturally reqnire cooler > clothing than if you are taking her to Niagara Falls." the young woman explained, looking at me with benevolent patience. And seeing that I was wholly disconcerted, she added: "Perhaps madaine might prefer to make her own selection." As I stood In the center of the store, apparently a stumbling block to every shopper, Jacqueline flitted here and there, until a coi#ortable assortment of parcels was accumulated upon the counter. I bought a neat sole-leather suitcase, which, at Jacqueline's practical suggestion, was changed for a lighter one of plaited straw. It was while Jacqueline was examining the suitcases that my attention was drawn to a tall, elderly man with a hard, drawn and deeply lined weather-beaten face and wearing s massive fur overcoat, open In front, who wag standing In the division between the trunk department and that adjoining tt, immediately behind Jacqueline. He was looking at me with an unmistakable glance of recognition. 1 knew that I had seen hlra several times before, but, though his features were familiar, I had forgotten his name. I stared at him and he stared hack at me, and made an urgent sign to ine. Keeping an eye on Jacqueline and not losing sight of her at any time, I followed the tall man. As I nenred liltn my remembrance of him grew stronger. When he turned round I had his name on my lips. It was Simon Leroux. i "Dlable! So you've got herP' he began In a hoarse, forcible whisper. I "Where did you pick her up?" I made no answer, but waited for i him to lead aguln?and I wos thinking hard. i "There's the devil to pay!" he went on In his execrable accent. "Louis came on post-haste, as you know, and he hasn't turned up this morning yet. Ah, mon Dleu, I always knew Tom was close, but I never dreamed you knew anything. You know what happened last night?" ' "It was an unfortunate affair," ] said guardedly. "Unfortunate 1" he repeated, staring . at me out of his bloodshot eyes. "It was the devil, by 1 Who was he? His face was fiery red, and he cast so keen a look at me that I almost thought he had discovered he was bo truying himself. "It was lucky I was In New York when Louis wired us she ?iad flown," he continued?I omit the oaths which punctuated his phrases. "Lucky I had my men with me, too. I didn't think I'd need them here, but I'd promised them a trip to New York?and then come Louis' wire. I put them on the track.
