A heavy snow drove across Broadway, freezing against the window of the hotel whence Adrien Latour peered anxiously into the late December day that closed the old year From Alexandria, where lie chanced | on steamer day, he had gone direct to I Paris. From the military attache of the | United States legation there he learned that Dale Everett had sailed for home soon after the Martindales left for Egypt, but that his arrival at a New York hotel [ liad jnst appeared in late papers. Latour promptly cabled there, taking the next Havre steamer; ami as her gangplank touched the New York wliarf, not wait ing "the law’s delay" iu custom house matters he drove straight to the hotel. Awaiting him there he found tough old Dr. Minot, au army surgeon known in boyhood’s days; and from him learned j that his cable had reached Dale too lute 1 for answer. He had been ordered home for special duty, and arriving Quite sick had insisted on attempting it. Exfiosure in the dre:ulful weather had developed typhoid symptoms: and ho now lay ill at the hotel. “Is he dangerously ill?" Adrien asked tho doctor, his face white with anxiety, j "How tho devil can 1 say?" the old surgeon answered gruffly. "You might as well ask, Do men gut killed in battle? Borne do; some don’t! Typhoid is as bad as bullets. If he weathers the fifth day from this he’ll probably pull through. Come up and help nurse him." And Latoor did nurse him, with the tenderness of a woman, never leaving the tiedside save to confer with the law yer and detective he had promptly put on a search for Bennie Mason. But ad vertisements for heirs of Beverly Mason were unanswered; and the detective sys- Atem of New York remained ignorant whether Bennie or her father was in that rdy or not. Twice in that weary suspense of five lays Dr. Minot bad shaken his head om- .nously on taking his patient’s temper ature, and Adrien read in his face that Dale wonld die. But twice the mighty frame and unbroken constitution had wrestled successfully with tho grim foe, for it seemed that the strong will which hail borne him from boyhood to honors and distinction had decreed that the matter it dominated should not yield. But through the wandering fancies of the fever one liad recurred again and again—meaningless to all else, but thrill ing Adrien Latour with infinite pity. Half moan, half entreaty, would coma the words: "We’re old—old friends, Bennie!" And hearing them the Creole had more than once hid his face in the coverlet and pressed his grim mustache against the wasted hand lying helpless upon it This was the day of crisis. Outside the snowflakes flew faster and more blinding, pedestrians turned up coat collars about their ears, and the few cab horses left at the stands seemed mutely begging pity and shelter. Inside Dr. Minot nodded comfortably in an easy cliair before the fire, waiting the wak ing so meaningful; Adrien Latour. at the window, gnawed hi# mustache In rustless thought, mechanically counting the few street lamps now visible through the storm. Suddenly a movement in the bed, and both watchers started forward to see the longed for sanity in the eyea of Dale Everett feebly tnrned from one to the other. Gradually memory crept into them, now steadily fixed on Latour; the wasted Ungers crept out to his hand, and as the Creole bowed his head over them Dale whispered feebly: “Letter—came—dear old boyP Then, closing bis eyre in very weari ness of content, he slept softly. "Will he get well?" Adrien whispered eagerly. “How the devil can 1 tell?" again an swered old Minot, this time rather husk ily and with suspicious moisture in bis eyes. And he blew his nose trumpet like before he added, "Watching and tonics and he’s all right now.” Since the day his appointment as ca det reached him In Paris, Latour had never felt the Joy that now thrilled through him. When the doctor left he sat before the glowing ooala dreaming, while the snow fell faster without and darkness creot into tbs rick room. But tiw oT a hU th ! D *“ T * t,le re,f, ‘ Ur tug of his sleeping friend, saw noth- mg but pictures of the long part in the glowing vistas of the sc-a coal ehSdeT 1 " 1,0 ^ ’Tapped twice, and feared to disturb him the newcomer said, jerking hia head toward the »lee|>er. "How s he getting long?" “Better Any luck?" Adrien replied anxiously. Tlie other motioned him into the par lor and closed the door before he an swered, Quietly: "Luck’s not in my line, general. Dick Peerman s reputation was made hy trust ing to something better’u that No luck." The siieakcr was wiry, medium sized, and close shaven. Hu was dressed in scrnpulous black, with natty Ihx>U and stitched tan gloves. The hat lie had not removed was flat rimmed, with a broad baud of crape. He was au or.linary man. with two extraordinary things aliout him: one that, coming from the furious storm, there was no speck of moisture on shiny hat or glossy boots: the other tlie cool, incisive, meaningless stare of of his keen, gray eyes. Yet Capt. Rich ard Peerman w:is the sharpest detective Uncle Sam had ever paid for unearthing a paymaster .; “little game" in war or "clicking the bracelets" round a felon’s wrists in peace. "So you cannot find any clew?" Latour asked wearily; but lie eagerly seized the card the other extended by way of an swer. "Toughest case I ever worked up on no clew,” the detective said placidly. "Tens o’ thousands of ’em exactly alike in this town. But when Dick Peerman goes for a thief or a woman, either may as well come down." Tlie Creole liad read the card over ami over by the fitful firelight. VY ithout re ply lie threw on a heavy army cloak, ami whispering the other to wait stole out and softly closed tlie door. Through howling storm anti blinding mow the driver of a chanced on cab steered Latour over the East Side, where tenements swarm with human venuin, where poverty and pestilence stalk hand in hand through mazes of their ceaseless carnival. Miles they struggled north ward, out of the closer district, to where progress had not yet crowded his victims so closely; then they stopped liefore a tall, dingy house, and Latour, springing out, ascended the crazy stair and pansed at every landing. At last he halted, a flood of wonder ing, pitying tenderness sweeping his face as he looked around that cheerless home of poverty. Twice lie raised his hand, twice he pansed liefore he tapped nervously upon tlie door. The answer came prompt and sharp, but again be canght bis breath hard before lie ventured to lift the crazy latch. Over a very small fire, in a clean but almost bare room, sat Miss Tabitha Fay and her brother. .She was only a shade more angular, he far less rotund than of yore; but over tlie faces of both time and poverty had unmistakably passed their hands. “Nonsense, Brother Standi sill I did hear a rap. Como in!” were the words that carried the visitor back on a flood of memory and pity. Surprise, greeting and explanation were soon over, and Latour asked anz- iously: “Where is Bennie?" “She is rather later than usual this evening,” Miss Tabitha answered apolo getically. “She usually returns by early lamplight." “Where from?" queried Latour iinpa tiently. “It is a very long distance,” the spin ster went on as indirectly as ever, “and tlie artist photographer detains her at this season." "And she now, fortunately," Mr. Stauuish put iu, “has beeu able to secure extra work.” “Work! A night like this! Thank God! I have found her!” Adrien cried in a half groan. Then, answering at random the spinster’s voluble cackle and the many questions of her brother, tho Creole paced the room nervously; ever and again pressing his face against the frosty- little pane, or [musing to catch her tread upon tlie creaking stair. At last it came. Pinched with cold and covered with snow, Bennie yet ran in cheerily and kissed her father before she saw the visitor. Oh! 1 beg pardon," she said. "I did not know you liad a visitor, pH[m!—You here!" She drew up in surprise, as she recog nized Latour, a dash of old time hauteur over her face. But the expression on his stopped her. "Bennie, please hear me before yon speak," be said, more humbly than he bad ever spoken to mortal before. And, hearing, Miss Fay signaled to her brother, strode over, took UU arm and marched him from the room. Bennie stood silent, her eyes dropped, her hands clasped listlessly before her But eagerly the man went on: “Bennie, ten weary years ago yon asked my forgiveness. In my pride and folly 1 refused it. Five years later you besought me, still unchastened by sor row, to stay my cruel judgment. Once more, in my sinful blindness, 1 refused. Now, in penitence and contrition, 1 come from lonely wandering to beseech what 1 would not give. Bennie, for the take of the old days, can you forgive me?" Those blue eyes, once saucy, proud still, raise; 1 quietly from the floor met bis eager, hungry gaze. The voice was low and sweet, but it never trembled as she answered: “From my heart I forgive you!" His aims were around her, the snow dampened head pressed close to his breast “Bennie! darling!" he whispered, “1 know all. Dale told me your secret!” “Dale told!" Quickly she broke from the strong arms; a scarlet flood dyed tlie face she bent upon the ground. "Dale told!" she repeated In trembling tones. “How could he” “Huah, darling!" he interrupted. “Do not judge him until yon know all." Taking Dale’s crumpled letter from his breast he put it in her hands. And Bennie, standing statue still, read it slowly through, ftut, as she read, the play of deep emotions flickered on her face, then faded out, leaving no sign to the eyes that watched so yearningly. Then she folded the letter gently, ten derly, and pufit in her bosom. - “This letter must be mine," she said quietly, but turning her face away. “Dale s sacrifice for me 1 guessed be fore, but some things in it I never dreamed till now. What he has writ ten of me must lie mine, until 1 can put this letter into hia own hands again.” Again, as she ceased, the crimson flood •wept the pale face; but she met La- to«rt> eyes bravely as she asked: "Where is Dale now?” “At the hotel very ill I have" “1 must go to him, then,” she inter rupted calmly, but very pale. “Take me, please." And again she raised her eyes and looked fearlessly into those of the first m»n (he had ever loved. • ••••• When Bennie Mason softly followed Latour into the sick room Capt Richard Peerman was immeped in the Y eiograpay or James j*ace, taq., iu toe current number of a then famous society journal. He rose, removed his Lst, as though that act were greatest cooces- ! siou. aud remarked: “Excuse me, miss, but hanged if you Htiw us prompt as Dick rVennan!” then, with a voluminous glance at his employer, he discreetly retired and '■used the door. Bennie stood by the bed and looked down silently and long upon the sleeper. Opposite stood the man who had loved and wronged and, at last, understood her. Suddenly the sleeper moved restlessly ami the ever recurrent words came very gently tills time: “Old, old friends, Bennie!" Noiselessly and very tenderly the wo man sank upon her knees, the bright mosses of her hair shadowing the taco lient over Dale's pale hand. But his opening eyes first fill upon his friend's face. Full memory liad come back new. "Dear old boy!" he whispered feebly. "Letter all right. Find Bennie" Then he saw the form beside him. Without surprise, without one start his joy went out in one low whuqier: "Bennie!" The woman did not raise her head, but her hand very gently put out the lettter from her bosom. “Take this back, dear Dale," siie said softly. "Some of it is—true; some must be forgotten." Feebly stroking the bright hair he answered: "Yes, all sorrow must be forgotten, now! Give me your baud, dear old Adrien. You have found her!” Lying there so feebly, the sick soldier tried to join tlie hands of those two he had loved so loyally, even as he whis pered: “When you are happiest, Bennie, re member you said, we are old, old friends!” Very pale was the face the woman then raised before both men. Very gentle, but firmly clear, was the voice that bore those words: “We were old friends, dear Dale. Now with the blessing of God, we will be more than that, forever, ‘till death do us part!’ ’’ THE END. “Father,” asked a boy, “why do they call this place the Ex change?” “Because, my son, it is where we exchange money for experience.”—Boston Bulle- \ tin. ^chi us. aaovER DUCAB AD$0 And i $alArj> LI PCM AN BROS., Proprietors, OnijgfCi.
