SYNOPSIS-The S of Hearts is the "death-sign" explored,, by Seneca Trine In the private war of vengeance which, through the agency of bis daughter Judith, a woman of violent passions Hie his own, he wager; against Alan Law- son of the man (now dead) who WBB unintentionally responsible for the " accident which rendered Trine a helpless cripple, Alan is in love with and is in turn loved by Rope, Judith's twin aud double, but in all else her opposite. Judith vows to compass Alan's death, but under dramatic circumstances he saves her life and so, unwillingly wins her love. Thereafter Judith is by turns actuated by the old hatred, the new love, and Jealousy of her sister, Ro*r. .She earns her father'-- distrust aaa ls left behind by hun when he journeys West, taking Rose with hun. In order to turo Alan away from New York. Alan pursues, Judith accompanying him against his wish, and succeeds in' rescuing Rose from Trine's special train. I-LIGHT ENGINE - Toward the close of that summer's day it was the whim of that .arch manger ot theatricals -whom men call fate to stage an anticlimax <n the midst of a vast arid lilly' expanse qf desolate middle western country - a rude and rugged disk of earth which boasted no human tenancy within the circle of its far-reaching horizon and was biceptcd, not neat * ly, rather irregular, by the flowing double line of steel ribbons which marked the ralroad's 'right'. of way over the old Santa Fe trail. So much for the stage: thc light effects were provided exclusively by the crimson and purple and gold of a port eat ious sunset; the properties employed were simply a special train and what ls known as a light engine. It was the engineer of the light en gine who- started the trouble. After bringing his monster to a full pause, he turned upon his passengers and not without plausible excuse- vio lently indicted Mr. Alan Law _ for abuse of his and bis fireman's trust fulness. Thie the said fireman (climb* lpg .forward over th? .tender) vig orously" applauded/ They bad been engaged, both gen tlemen' asserted7 vigorc^'sly; for" noth ing more,-dangerous; than i\ quick run across the prairies, in furtherance of' t|ti unspecified . p4Kds ?of i 'Mr/ t tl AUttY Law and hiB companion, Misa.

In the service of Miss Trine and her betrothed, Mr. Law, Barcus had black ened his face and hands to the hue of ebony and had garmented him self in the garb of a pullman porter, surrendering himself to humiliating service to those aboard the special, suffering their insolence, and ocorn without murmuring, but with tho tid es of wrath mounting ever, higher in his bosom.. . / And now, when et length he had wott his freedom from that ignomin ious servitude, lt was only to be sworn at and villlfled. as a common nigger, by railroad hands! It waa the fireman (to be just) who brought the row to a focus by r a slighting reference to that r"shiftless and misbegotten dinge." He repented' quite promptly. Mr. Barcus Jumped for his throat with a bellow of rage. The'fireman slip ped on this cab platform,? trod on nothing,' TUS?",1 wenr^ov?T tjwrttwards, taking Mr. Barcus with hhn-tolhe bal last. .

"Come along, you simpleton- uu less you* want to be shot down where you stand." . Mr. Barcus .acted on that advice, as immediately., as resentfully.

Mr. Barcus heaved a heartfelt sigh, sat down heavily on a camp chair, and mopped his heated brow, watch ing tho lights of the locomotive drop swiftly Into the gloaming. "If any of those guys," he assur ed Mr. Law presently, "could hit a barn, I wouldn't be proving myself the giddy ass I am by sticking to your ill-starred fortunes. There wouldn't be any to stick to, because you'd haye been snuffed out long, long ago-with all the chances they've had to blow your fool head off. point blank!" -II-PULLMAN.
