Da* yaaac and Miss Pleydell entered. Both appeared thoroughly frighten ad. sltbough endeavoring to cloak It ander a mask of well bred composure, and Klrby. purposely Ignoring their condition, launched himself upon a soothing current of email talk which was remarkable for its lack of rele? vance. N "Just discoursing with Croup on the beauties of the night." he prevsrlcsted cheerfully. 'You see. 1 have been unite deserted.

I dldi't ?troll fur." acknowl? edged the other, fastening an Innocent ?ya upon the celling. "There was some men out there, strangers to me? so fur. Yet they kind o' seemed to show some interest In me when 1 ran Into 'em. Told me It wasn't heslthy to tike too long a walk In the night air. And when I went round the house the other way there was some more o' them says the same thing similar. So I reckoned I might as well come back to the house." "If you will permit me." said Kirby. facing the company and raising his ?olce. "I will receive Judge Pleydell's friends on the porch yonder. No. Bunce." he added sharply as the other approached, "I don't want you. It's a lone band, partner." ??You shan't do It," Implored Adele, eatch'ng his srm. "Ob. don't you see it would be as if I hsd betrayed you 7 Anatole." she broke off sharply, a note of agonized relief In her voice as the young creole sppeared in the doorway and gently shouldered his way past the Judge?"Anatole, you've told me a hundred times you'd die to do me a service. Now I give you the chance. I want those men driven off my prop? erty." M. Veaudry's fsce whitened and set as be became the cynosure of all eyes, Klrby's excepted. "It is a service that I do you, made? moiselle," he said at length, with quiet dignity. "Those are my men out there. I told them to surround the house, and this gentleman knows what for," bow? ing gravely to Kirby. "No, be doesn't, but I do!" cried Adele, laughing hysterically. "So this is bow you win a woman. Anatole? You will answer to my brother for an attack on a guest of this bouse," she finished, her anger once more master? ing all other emotions. "Mademoiselle. It Is by your broth? er's orders that I act?and I think it Is that he Is himself here now," replied M. Veaudry. Even while Adele laughed scornfully n confused babel of cries was beard from the ^ardeu, supplemented by hoarse oMhs and the sound of running feet. Another moment and Tom Han? del! had burst into the room. Covered with dust and sVeat, white, haggard, half Insane with excitement, a prey to the most consuming passion, be was the epitome of violence, balked re? venge and undying hatred as, throw? ing off Adele's restraining arm, he launched himself straight at Klrby. Aaron Itandall, grave and collected, next entered and methodically placed upon an adjacent chair the green port? manteau belonging to the late lament? ed Colonel Moreau. Klrby quietly awaited young Ban dull s onslaught and, as the maddened boy threw himself upon him, pinioned bis arms and, despite all opposition, forced him backward into a chair. "Let me go! Get out of the way, you people:" screamed Tom. like an in furinted child, as Adele and Aaron laid restraining hands upon hint. "We've run you to earth, Mr. Wolf." be added, glariug at Kirby, while be strove to release himself, almost sob blng with Impotent fury. "Wolf, am IV" echoed Kirby, step ping back. "Then I'll show you some faugs." "Tom! Tom:" implored Adele "What's the matter? Why do you net this way? You don't know what you're doing." "Don't IV" he snarled, writhing from her grasp and again confronting Kirby. "It's you who are the fool. There's the man we want for the murder of Colonel Moreau!" sie started back aghast, staring from her brother to Klrby and back j again in helpless, doubtiug astonish "wa vs at'N von to i a 1.11.' uii. wor.r." ment. while Judge IMcydell coughed dryly and his daughter sheltered her? self behind the ample bulwarks of Mme Do renne, who. now that the source of her fears had been Identified, had fOgal nod her serene composure snd was staring curiously at Kirby. "it was Colonel Moreno be killed''" whliperoil Idole in a strenge!) iiulei and sniotlonlost voice, "Shot down like a dofl Moreau WAS unarmed.' growled young Randall, ulth brutal brevity. ^indeed!" murmured Kirby, evincing Hidden interest. "How do you know?" "Heesuse no weapon was found with the body." "Who told you that?" "Nobody." "Then how do you know?" "1 found Moreau's body, und I am the chief witness against you." snap? ped the hoy, spitting out the words with distilled venom. Aaron Randall's expression changed, and with Hidden agitation he grasped M. Veaudry's arm. To both men some Idea of the hoy's despicable action had occurred. Kirby waited coolly, surveying his accuser, while he carefully chose his next words. "So you are the man 1 had to lind." he said measuredly, with a sardonic, contemptuous smile. "Did you throw that pistol away, or did you keep it?" "That's your defense, is It?" cried Tom. laughing wildly. "I'll show you how much water that'll hold. You want to accuse me of taking it?ac? cuse me of taking that poor dead man's pistol? You'll find that accusation Is going to fasten the rope just a little tighter around your neck. Moreau left his pistol in that portmanteau this morning while at my aunt's house, and If I speak the truth It's there yet." He pointed dramatically to the green leather article his cousin still guarded, and, Aaron making no move to open It, but remaining preoccupied and si? lent, Judge Pleydell stepped briskly forward and performed the service, holding significantly aloft the Derrin? ger which had almost ended Klrby's life. "Ha! That looks as If I took it, doesn't It?" cried Tom, turning in sav? age triumph upon his fancied enemy. "The only pistol I carried in my life was my father's. There it is," produc? ing from his pocket the silver mount? ed slugle shot weapon. "You ought to know that pistol," he finished men? acingly. "If you don't, these people here know It." "You seem to have made your case." admitted Klrby, with cool brevity and indifference. "I believe I'd prefer to go out." He glanced at Adele, but she had turned away with bowed head, look? ing utterly crushed. After a motneut's hesitation he turned to go, when M. Veaudry sprang forward and barred his way. "Keep out of this, Anatole?* warned young Randall. "Y'ou've done your share." "Yes, I have done my share, but I have not forgotten my honor," replied the young creole, pale with but ill re? pressed excitement. "I would kill him, but not by lies. It was a fair meet? ing. Colonel Moreau was armed this morning. He carried that very pistol you show us here," pointing to the weapon that Judge Pleydell still held. "The proof is there," he finished sim? ply. "Your cousin, he told me." "You fool!" cried young Randall, completely outraged at this unexpected action, which he considered base treachery. "What do you mean? Aaron," he added violently, turning to his cousin, "tell him that's a lie." But Tom Randall's second witness proved as disappointing, and his hasty, despicable and well executed method of vengeance fell to pieces before his enraged eyes. He, who had not thought twice of fastening a murder upon his j enemy, had never for a momeut doubt Od that, the necessity arising, this im- j port a nt witness, this blood relation who shared his hatred, would readily swear away the life of their mutual enemy. He had acted without princi- j pie. He had reckoned without his cous? in's inherent love for common decen- , cy and Justice. Aaron Randall posi? tively refused to corroborate the false? hood. "No. sir," he said sternly. "We have a better way." Tom, abandoning himself to rage and Chagrin, turned upon M. Veaudry and Aaron. "You cowardly sneaks!" he cried. "You go back on DM now when I had this man where I could pay him what I owed him, There are twenty men around this house who would stamp his life out like a rattlesnake. Give me that pistol." "(Jive him the pistol. Give him for? ty!" added Kirby hotly as Judge Pley dell hesitated. ? I'll teach you to skulk behind trees and rob a dead man. to swear a murder on me," he added passionately, turning Upon his accuser. "1 am clear of your lies. I am within the law now, and you are outside It. Take your pistol, call in your friends to help you. and I'll make"? "No! No!" cried Adele piteously. He turned, mastering by an effort his bitter passion. "And." he finished courteously, with a formal bow, "1 will make them welcome. It shall never I be said of me that 1 was inhospitable In my own house." Oblivious to the others, his declara? tion had been aimed at Adele, and. de- ; spite the suave courtesy with which it was delivered, she was acutely con- ( sclous of a certain bitter undercurrent of irony in the words, re-enforced by the sardonic challenge of his eyes. "Your own house," she echoed slow? ly. "Did you say that"? "It Is mine tonight." She stared at him. wide eyed and tremulous with sudden fear and hor- ! ror, as if the phantasmagoria of some hidOOUS dream, a being whom she had swiftly learned to cherish, had in a J breath turned into a venomous reptile, ( its wicked head drawn back to strike. "There is only one man lit the world Who could make that claim," she whls- i pered. choking over each word while i she still stared with bonified fascina? tion?"only one man in the world who could make that claim!" "Don't you see who the scoundrel Is?" cried Tom. with brutal contempt. Kirby bowed gravely to Adele Ran? dall. "Cameo Kirby at your service, mad sm.

With difficulty be was bundled out of the room by Aaroo an*' M. Venudry before blood was shed, Kir by being in no humor to stand further insults from his accuser. Then Adele was escorted from the room by old Mammy Lena, Croup's wife, while Judge Pleydell re? paired to the balcony and dismissed the patietitly waiting posse. Unwillingly the posse dispersed, some even returning to New Orleans, while the indefatigable old judge retired in? doors and sought his three friends, leaving Kirby and Bunco In undisput? ed possession of the ground floor. "Well, gentlemen," began Pleydell in a businesslike voice, "there Is only one thing to be done, and that Is to adhere to our original plan. It Is no time now to deplore our mutual blind? ness. The fact remains that that d-d low gambler has claimed the plantation, as we expected, though 1 admit he took an unlooked for and devilish roundabout method of doing so." "If I had had any help he wouldn't be here now," interrupted Tom Bau? dall sullenly, glowering at Aaron and M. Veaudry. "I'll fix him yet!" "Not you alone, but the four of us." corrected Pleydell, "and we'll give him a fairer chance than he deserves. In the meantime, Tom, you must control yourself and keep out of his way until the ladles have left the house, for no violence must be indulged in in their presence. Your poor sister has stood about all she can bear. I reckon, though I'm glad she discovered in time the true character of that designing vil Jain" "You mean to Insinuate that he dared to pay his address"* to Adele?" cried Tom, springing to his feet in a fresh access of fury. If. Veaudry laid a restraining hand upon his arm. "It is that I do not think Mr. Kirby has acted as other than a gentleman to a lady," he said pacifically, glancing significantly at Pleydell. "Gentleman i" sneered young Ran? dall. "As if be knew the meaning of the word! But if he had dared to ad? dress Adele 1 would go down now and" "You must learn .o control yourself, sir," interposed the judge, somewhat testily, irritated at the boy's mad out? bursts. "I think you can safely leave the honor of the family in the mature and capable hands of your cousin. You have misinterpreted my words," he added, ignoring the other's shrug at the mention of Aaron's supposed abil? ities, "for Anatole is quite right. Mr. Kirby evidently has one virtue?he knows his limits?and your sister is not one to be impressed by such a character even if masquerading under such an honorable name as Colonel Moreau. To return to the real theme, Is It agreed, theu, that we adhere to our original plan?" As Tom sulkily refused to speak, Aaron hiked gravely: T?u mean~Thai the ladies go to your plantation, Judge Pleydell, while we remain for the os? tensible purpose of formally handing over the estate to?to that man? The ladles are to be kept In ignorance of our real purpose?" "I'd shoot him and be done with it," sniffed young Randall. "He'll slip through your fingers again?see if he doesn't." "Yes, the ladies are to be kept in entire ignorance." agreed Pleydell, Ig? noring the boy's observation, "like? wise Mr. Kirby and that fat scoundrel who accompanies him?no warning, mind, for they are desperate charac? ters who hesitate at nothing. Miss Adele will uaturully abhor the idea of remaining under this roof one minute longer than is absolutely necessary. To complete our ostensible purpose in? form the servants we ure leaving, nev? er to return, and let Miss Adele pack up and take with her such things as belonged to her mother and upon which this scoundrel can have no legal claim. By the way, we must assume charge of Colonel Moreau'i portman? teau, with such effects as It may con? tain. It Is our duty to inquire if he left any next of kin and to return bis belongings to them. Poor gentleman ? so honorable, chivalrous and coura? geous. 1 regret that 1 had not the ex? treme honor of meeting him while he was yet living." As, in quest of the portmanteau. Anron entered the deserted drawing room Kirby. pacing the balcony, hail? ed him from the window. "Mr. Randall, if you think that ex? citable young cousin of yours is ready to listen to me there's something I've got to tell him," he said quietly, mas? tering his irritation. "It is our Intention that you shall see him, sir, as soon as the ladles have gone." replied Aaron, with a signifi? cance lost on the other. "When the ladies have gone?" echoed Kirby. entirely without comprehension, for he had never contemplated such a move. Mr. Randall nodded. "Mr. Kirby," he said coldly, "In their sense of honor to the dead man who lost this place to you his children do not oppose your possession. But you can scarcely imagine they would be willing to pass the night under this to^i once you had claimed it." Without comment Kirby returned to the balcony. He looked old and care? worn, for the words had stung him to the quick. Twice within the past hour he had sent a request for an Interview to Adele, and as yet she had made no answer. This, then, was the explana? tion. Evidently be was deemed too unclean a thing even to look upon. lie did not greatly wonder, for be could never efface the memory of her boni? fied look and cry when the mask had fallen and the bad prince stood reveal? ed. After all, the pens It v for his re mtinlBg hud Been Immeasurably great? er than he hud anticipated. Meanwhile Aaron had bent over the portmanteau, which still lay open upon a chair as Judge Pley del I had left It. In searching for Colonel Moreau's Der? ringer the contents of the suit case had been somewhat disarranged, and the methodical Aaron now withdrew a badly crumpled coat, intending to fold it neatly before replacing it. As he did so a red morocco box fell from one of the pockets. Aaron, about to return it, suddenly started and held it under the 1 i^clit of an adjacent lamp, for the inscription on the lid which had arrested his attention was: "Mar? garet Randall to her husband, John Randall.*' "Margaret Randall?that was Adele's mother." he exclaimed in wonder. "What is that?" asked M. Veaudry, entering the room and noting the oth? er's interest. "Something that fell from Colonel Moreau's portmanteau," replied Aaron, opening the box and examining its con? tents. "You see, it is the miniature of Adele's mother that that gambler won the night he won the plantation," nod- | ding to the balcony where Kirby could be heard pacing back and forth. "You know he got even my poor cousin's Jewels. This is set with diamonds. Look?half of them are gone. * "To the pawnshop, eh?" ventured M. Veaudry. "Yet you found it In Colonel Moreau's portmanteau? It is very strange. How has It come there?" "No one knows but Colonel Moreau, and be can't answer anything now," said Aaron solemnly. "You better give this box to Tom." Like his older brother, the General has proved an unwilling participant In Judge Ploy doll's maneuver. The child strongly disapproved of the Idea, for he was now summarily hauled out of bed and forced to exchange the known comforts of that article for the doubt? ful accommodations of the drawing room sofa. "What for do they make me get up In the middle of the night?" he sleepi? ly demanded as Croup made up the impromptu bed in the now deserted room. "What for do they dress me again?" "Yo's gwine to Jedge Pleydell's plan? tation, honey," patiently explained the old servant for the tenth time. "Dey go'n' pack up all yo' HT clothes an' all dem toys yo' had when yo* was a baby. Dey ain't gwlne to 'sturb yo' so much hyah." "But I don't want to go to Judge Pleydell's plantation," peevishly pro? tested the child. "Aren't we ever coming back "here to live again1?" "No'm, I don't hardly spect so, UT marse. Yo' kain't stay no mo' hyah, honey, nn* ole Croup kain't go nowali wif yo' all's no mo'. Ole niggah got a new marse now. \ro' must sleep, honey. I wake yo' when dey ready, 11T marse. Hesh, honey, liesh!" And Croup lightly tiptoed from the room as the General nodded drowsily and then closed his weary eyes. And thus Kirby found hira. As if conscious of the other's gaze, the boy instantly awoke with a start and sat bolt upright, throwing off his impromp? tu covers. "I've got to have a talk with you," he said gravely. "Xo; I won't go to "TUI.T ALL BATS YOU, DON'T THEY?" sleep, and if you leave I'll get up. I want some more light. I'm going to have some things the way I want them." Recognizing that Might was useless and that the child was In deadly ear? nest, Kirby obediently turned up the lamp. "It strikes me," he said mildly, j "you'll come very near getting a good ! many things the way you want them." "Y'ou come and sit here," peretnp I torily ordered the General, pointing to a stool beside the sofa. And again the man obeyed. For a moment the child was silent, gravely contemplat? ing bis pseudo hero. "What is a 'd-d low gambler?'" he suddenly Inquired. "It's what some people call me," re? plied Kirby after a pause. "I'm sorry they do it before you." "They don't like you any more, do they?specially Dele? They all hate you, don't they? I know why. It's because you turned out to be the bad prince." said the boy. nodding solemn? ly. Again the other was silent. "Gen? eral," be said at length, "there's some? thing your sister never got quite I straight in the stories she's read you. I Sometimes the good prince is half bad, i and sometimes the bad prince?Is half good." "No; there was never anything like that In the books," reflected the Gen? eral, greatly surprised. "And sometimes," added Kirby, "thej are both just one man- half good and half bad." i "Roth Just in one person?" I I (To Re Continued.) SOUTH OPPOSES COTTON HILL* LA DI NO PROPOSITION. Exchanges in Southern < itic? Wire l>isap|>roval of suggested Solution of Problem '<? New York Confer? ence?Such Arrangement "Insult to Reputable Cotton Firma of South,** Sayn Memphis Exchange. New Yoik, Oct. 14.?Due largely to the uncompromising attitude of Rome Southern cotton exchanges, the plan to create a ' guaranty company" to overcome the difficulties now at tendfhg the European acceptance of American cotton bills of lading, re? ceived a decided setting-ba?k today. It was expected that the committee ??t American bankers and Sir Edward W. Holden, representing the Eu? ropean banking interests, would ratify yesterday's action and work out details of the plan; instead of which the meetir.g bioke up ab? ruptly with a general misunderstand? ing. "We are far from agreed," said Jos T. Talbert. vice president of the National City Bank, which has been taking an active part in the proceedings. It was learned after the confer? ence that the protesting Southern I exchanges openly condemn the "guaranty company" plan as unrea? sonable and visionary. This oppo? sition was so pronounced that it caused the American committee to pause. The outcome was hardly a general disappointment, however, for ' ! some of the conferees are inclined to adopt a policy of inaction, in the belief that the foreigners will soon extend the acceptance of American cotton bills from October 31 to De? cember 31. In this event the Ameri? can committee will have ample time to arrive at a definite understanding. Opposition General in South. New Orleans, Oct. 14.?General opposition throughout the Scuth manifested itself today when an? nouncement was made in New Y'ork of the plan to organize a foreign company to guarantee cotton bills of lading. Although the proposed charge of guaranteeing is only six or seven cents a bale, Southern cotton men I contend that in the aggregate such a scheme would place a heavy burden on the planter, broker and mer? chant, and that the reputable firms of the South should not be made, to suffer for the alleged frauds of < oncerns which have been pretend? ing for several years to sell vast quantities of a staple commodity at bargain counter prices. Such a plan "is an insult to the reputable cotton firms of the South" is the gist of a resolution passed to? day by the Memphis Cotton Ex? change, while prominent Atlanta business men are quoted as declar? ing that, whatever is done, "it will come out of the farmer's pocket." Resolutions passed by the Hous? ton Cotton Exchange declare it "an unjust tax," and similar resolutions have been passed by the Cotton Ex? change at Dallas, while the resolu? tions of the New Orleans Exchanges assert that "the proposed guarantee proposition would single cotton out from all other productions and make it the peculiar object of discrimination and burdensome conditions." The resolution of the Southern ex? changes were telegraphed to Wm. A. Nash, who is presiding at the con? ference of representatives Of Ameri? can banks and foreign buyers in New Y'ork.
