He paused, lit a cigar, and then said abruptly: "Vincent tells me you know Miss Lambert's father; In fact, that you are frequently h'.s favored guest. How does It happen that such a girl can be the outcome of a sdtlety of bour geois and sharpers? You must pre sent me to this father when he ap pears; I should prefer your sponsor ship to Vincent's." "Why do you want to know a set of people so completely out of your line?" "I have a motive; not a very high one, I confess, but sufficiently power ful ? curiosity. I want to find out something about Miss Lambert's peo ple and hiatory, for I am certain I knew a rolative of hers mauy years ago." "Well, you had better fall back on your sporting acquaintance for an in troduction; he is more intimate with Captain Lambert than I am." "Ha! yo;i refuse to be responsible for me? That's deucedly shabby! So he calls himself captain? He is rather a queer flsh, isn't he?" "That depends on our respective Ideas touching queer flsh. He is not a highly polished, courtly gentleman, but he is not a bad fellow, and he is devoted to his daughter." "Indeed! Well, Glynn, I believe you huve seen a good deal of the world, and it is pleasant to find that so much faith In your fellow-crea tures survives the experience." "Faith is certainly a more agree able sensation than doubt," returned Glynn, unmoved. "By the way, I quite forgot I had an engagement thl'.i evening. I am late already; there is a fiacre." He hailed it. "Will you drive with me, Deering?" "So. thank you; I shall enjoy my weed and a stroll, so good-night. 1*11 look you up to-morrow or next day." "Curiosity." murmured Glynn, as he rolled away toward Paris. "Is It only curiosity? I wonder who Elsie's mother was? It seems too bad that any unholy mystery should nang round so sweet and frank a creature." And recalling the beautiful eyes which had looked up into his with cl^ar unconsciousness and unhesitat ing trust Glynn closed his own and gave himself up to some delightful, though disquieting, reflections. "What, infernal bad luck!" thought Deering. as he lit his cigar viciously. "I did not dream of meeting that fel low. I never reckoned on such an obstacle. However, cost what it may, I'll get to the bottom of her parent age and history. If my suspicions are right, I must get rid of her or bind her to me Indiseolubly ; and the last would be the pleasanter process. There is n wonderful charm about her, and yet at times I can catch traces of him, too! I wonder who this father of hers is? 1 must get. at him. I wish I hadn't been obliged to send that cad Vincent to the righi about so shortly, just to keep u;> ap pearances. It Is double-distilled bad luck to have that fellow Glynn here. J5ut if ho thinkH ho Is going to make all tho running with Miss Lambert ho is considerably mistaken. She is lovely ? so lovely that I almost for give her for existing." Glynn waited impatiently for tho moment when he could present him self at Madame Davilliers* weekly re- j ceptlon. Tho reasons why he must remain in Paris multiplied. He could not leave Elsie until her father re turned, ard then he must stay until ho got some eluo to Deerlug's schemes. That there was mischief brewing he felt convinced. Indeed, he was inclined to believe that Deer Ing did not intend giving his real name when Vincent introduced him to Madame Davllllers and her friends, but perceiving Glynn, he had prob ably changed his Intentions, and tele graphed accordingly to his associate. Still, considering thr.t Deerlng bore a fair character, it was highly im probable ho would be guilty of any overt baseness. On reaching Madame DaviillerB', Glynn found about half a dozen Inti mates already assembled. Monsieur's parties at whist had been mado up in a small sido room, and in tho salon Mademoiselle Antoinette and Elsie, assisted by tho singing master, were performing a trio. Glynn waited till this was over to make his bow to the lady of the house, enjoying from tho corner where ho had statlonod him self an uninterrupted view of Elsie's faco, which had the rapt, faraway look It always wore whnn she was singing. How sweet and noble her expression was. No, he would not leave her, unless he felt sure she mis safe and her father forowarned. Tho trio ended, young Lo Clerc prossed forward with animated thanks. Then Elslo looked round, as If seeking some one; when hor eyes met Glynn's a bright, happy smile sparkled over hor countenance, and she made a movement as If to go to him. He was soon at her sldo. "You have some pleasant news, 1 am sure?" he said, as he took her hand. "I have Indeed. My father has re turned; he will bo hero presently, and he looks so well, lie Is so re freshed by the sight of the s?a that he says he will take me to Brlitany, when it grows too hot In Paris." "You will enjoy lJriitany," said Glynn's volca r.iociiaui: ali> , wiiila tho real man was thinking what a heaven It would he were ho alone with her in Brittany, or llcunos Ayres, or Dot any Hay, or any other spbt sr. earth, provided they were together, away from evory one else. Thfc next In s'ant he was reproaching himself for his weakness, his folly. "I believe the scenery Is very fine," Elsie was beginning when she was In terrupted by the words, "Good even Ing, Miss Lambert." Glynn had been so absorbed In her that he had not noticed the approach of Deering, until l)e spoke. Elsie turned to hltn. still composed and smiling, without auy trace of the nervous dread which she had evinced at their meeting. "I am in a strange land here." said Deering, when they had exchanged greetings, "so 1 claim your protec tion; you must be my guide, philoso pher and friend." He drew a chair forward as he spoke, and Elsie Bat down. "Are you a frequent attend ant at these soirees, Glynn?" he asKea, after having bestowed a nod on his countryman. "You are cer tainly fonder of innocent amusements here than In Ijondon!" "It appears that Paris produces the same effect upon us both," returned Glynn coolly. "Monsieur Glynn,'* said Madame Davllliers, sailing up, "will you come aud speak to my old friend, M. Le I Colonel Dubois? He is a most Inter esting person! He fought at Water loo in the first year of his service, and Is all the fonder of your nation because they were gallant foes." So Glynn was carried off, to his great annoyance, just as Deering took a s?r.t beside Elsie, and seemed to settle himself for a long talk. M. Le Colonel Dubois did not find the most attentive listener in Glynn, and was not sorry when the host came to pay his compliments to the octogenarian, and permitted his Eng lish guest to escape. Glynn strolled into the neft room, and found Miss Lambert still conversing with Deer-; ir.g, with an air of interest, too. that surprised him. He did not attempt to interrupt them, but stood watching an opportunity of begging Madame Davalliers to ask Miss Lambert for another song. Prom his position near the portlerres between the two rooms he could see the door leading to the vestibule. While he looked it opened, and Lambert came In ? Lam bert in a gorgeous colored waistcoat and a bright necktie, for evening dress was not indispensable at Mad ame Davllliers' receptions. There was a joyous twinkle in his eye. an Ir repressible air of success in his bear ing. Ho saluted madame with much warmth, and then looked round the room as if seeking his "Jewel." Sud denly an extraordinary change passed over his face. The laughing, joyous, humorous look vanished, and was re placed by a fierce, startled, angry glare, like a wild creature suddenly roused to apprehension and defiance, as if, through the thin, smooth coat ing of lately acquired domesticity, the savage nature of the untamed desperado had broken forth all the more vehemently for its temporary slumber. Glynn saw that his eyes were fixed on Deering, who was smil ing and bending forwnrd as he spoke to Elsie. She did not heed him, for she had caught sight of her father, and Deering. struck by her expres sion, turned to see what had attracted her. Then his face changed, too, his jar/ dossil with a look of frigid de termination, his steel-blue eyes lit up with a flash of angry recognition. By an involuntary impulse Glynn started forward to greet Lambart with a vague intention to aasiKt him in re covering his self-control ? to aid El sie's father in any way ho could. "Glynn." said Lambert, gripping his hand hard, "who ? who is that mnn ? sitting there ? by my daunh 1 ter?" "He is Peering of Denham. Do you object to him?" "No; why should I? Only I knev/ a Deerlng onco ? not a clean potato, by any means! This may not bo the same ? Ah, Elsie, my child! Como here, keep by me." "What is the matter, dear? You are not like yourself," she exclaimed, as Bhe came up and passed lior c.rm through his. "Not like myself? You are wrong there." Then, with a Gort of efTort, ho wont straight up to Deerlng, and said audibly, in English: We have met before, sir, have we not?" Deerlng, who was considerably tho taller, looked down on htm from the ineffable heights of his social superi ority, and replied deliberately: "I have certainly had the plonsure of your actjualatance, some years ago." Yhen they stood silent, eye to eye ? silont, yet exchanging deadly de fiance. Deerlng, tho most self-pos sessed of tho two, was the first to speak: "I fancy wo have seen some changes since we met. Paris is not a bad piaco to anchor in after a wan dering life, especially whon one has so charming a companion as? iflss Lambert," adding the name after a slight pause. "How do you know my daughter?" abruptly. "Your friend, Mr. Vincent, was good enough to present me," said Deerlng, calmly, with some emphasis on tho name. "My father seems to have four\d another acquaintanee," r.ald Elsie to Glynn. "It is curious." Glynn scarce know what to say. It was probably that Deering had known Lambert by some other name, known him under moro doubtful circum stances than even he (Glynn) had. The Idea stung him with a sense of ar.grv piin. Deerlng was tbe last I nmi to be trusted with such knowl ; e<lee. "Mr. T)?e"in~ fcrifl be?n telling me about the luuy ol Wiiom I remind him," resumed Miss Lambert. "Shu must have been very sweet and very charming, but most unhappy; her husband was murdered. I was inter ested, but I hope the likeness is not an evil omen." "Impossible," cried Glynn. "Do not think of omens. Here comes Madame Davllllers to ask you to sing; pray do not refuse." While he spoke with Miss Lambert. uitu ioUM4 Mr father aa| T)Hfllf exchaagod A fOW NBttDCM In a low tone, and tkat Laabtrt, al though h? had completely mastered his temporary disturbance. had by ao means rtcorertd his spirits. A look of care and thought clouded his brow, though he spoke with some anima tion to one or two acquaintances. Deerlng. on the contrary, looked su premely calm, with something of ex ultation In his cold, light eyes. "Miss Lambert sings well," he said. "I am go great Judge of music, nor do I care for it, yet I should Imagine that such a voice, such a style, ought to be worth a good deal of money." "I don't intend her to sell her songs." sold Lambert, roughly. "And now, Madame Davilliers, I'll wish you good-night. I'm a bit tired after my journey. fciHie, net our hat. I'll take her home with me to-night, mad ame. with a thousand thanks for your good care." Elsie rose from the piano, and cast an anxious look on her father. Then she gavo her hand to Glynn, bowed to Deerlng. presented her brow to mad ame's kiss. and. slipping her arm through Antoinette's, left the room. "Let me see you soon," said Lam bert to Glynn. "You do not return to London Just yet?" "Not this week, at least." "Suppose you breakfast with me to-morrow, Captain Lambert." said Deerlng. "We'll smoke the pipe of peace, and talk over our adventures by flood and field." "Thank you," shortly, "I never breakfast away from home." "Oh, Indeed! Then I shall call on you, and pay my respects to Miss Lambert at the same time." returned Deerlng in a tone of lmperturable good breeding. Lambert, who was making his adieux to Madame Davilliers, did not seem to hear, but before he reached the door he turned quickly back, and said in a constrained tone to Deer lng: "I cannot breakfast with you. but I will call at your hotel to-morrow morning at 10. CO." "That Is wiser." said Deerlng, with quiet superiority. Glynn was greatly Btruck by the significance of these words. What hold had E^orlng over the wandering adventurer, who sesmed as far re moved from the haughty English gentleman as the east is from the west? He walked home revolving this question and others. Every day in creased the fascination which Lam bert's daughter unconsciously exer cised over him; every day showed more and more clearly the unsulta billty, nay. from a common sense point of view, the impossibility of al lying himself with so doubtful a char acter as poor Lambert. On reaching his hotel the concierge handed him several letters, and when safe within his own room he opened them. One proved to be from his firm of business, which compelled his Immediate return to London. He had seldom been so annoyed and irritated nn by this unavoidable necessity to quit the scene of the mys terious drama which interested him so intensely. He might be prudent enough, mean enough, to shrink from linking himself for life with a crea ture who was probably too good for him, but he would not desert Lam bert In a difficulty. Ho would roturn as soon as possiblo ahd see him clear of Deerlng. Seizing his pen he wrote a hasty lino to tho effect that he was obliged to run over to London for a week, but would return without fall, adding his private nddvess. When this had been sealed, stamped and di rected to Lambert, he rang and or dered his bill and a very early cup of coffee next morning. "The first train for Calais leaves at 7 in the morning," said tho waiter. "There Is an earlier one about 5, I think, by the Dieppe route, but you gain no time, for the trajet is longer." "Of course I will go by Calais." re turned Glynn. "Do not fall to call mo in good time." To be Continued. SPANI8H THRONE KOOM. Moot Splendid In Europe ? Its Curios and Gems.
