I 1 "That's what I said when she claim- | ed It, but slie would have it she'd a right to know her own child, and I couldn't deny her that. So she told, ' roe the story, and it was just another I proof of the way men treats us poor . 1 downtrodden creatures. She was an actress when I first root her. You ' roust know I was better olT in those t 1 days. I didn't live In no such poverty | stricken neighborhood as this. I was I In a good house in a good street, and < so was my poor friend. She used to ! 1 go off on long trips, and so I never thought anything if I didn't hear from I . her In months. I never knew that ; she'd^ had a baby till that day when 1 she claimed the one-I thought the Lord had sent to me, nor 1 never had supposed she was married, which indeed It turned out she wasn't. P.ut that day she told me the whole story?how she'd met a rich young man who was handsome and all that sort of tiling. It's always that way, you know. They've always got a line face and a long purse, and their beauty lills our hearts, while their presents blind our eyes to the wrong we do. Ibit you ,. know all that without my telllu it to .... you. It seemed slte'?l loved thin in,-in for three or four years, and then tlds little one came. She was awfully sick, and after weeks she was just gettiu a bit stronger when he comes to her one 1 . night?that was the night before Thanksglvln?and he says to her In a cold blooded way, he says, 'Alice, my girl, what'll we do with this baby?' | ( And she tips and says, as brave as brass, 'I'll keep it.' lie starts at that, nnd he says, 'But think what the world will say!' 'I don't care about the world,' she answers, 'so long as yon love me. Then he said the hrutnl j words that killed her. You mark my | words?that man killed that poor girl! ] She wasn't mqre'n IS when he met her, | and she wns only '22 when she died. < She paid dear for the little love he , gave her. But I must tell you what he said. He took the baby from her i aide, and he says, 'Let me see tbc lltV' ' ^ fjk He just wrapped the l>aby tip and iccnt wr out iclth it in hi* arms. tie brat,' and he looks at It awhile, and then he says, 'What do you call him?' 'It ain't a lilm,' she says, kind of mournful, 'cause it hurt her to see the father didn't even know nl>out his own child. 'It's a girl,' she went on. 'I think I'll call her Idly.' 'Why Lily?' "he says, with a laugh. "Cause she's so pure and sweet,' says the mother. 'I'nre and sweet, eh?' says the man. 'Well, she'll lose all that as she grows big enough -to understand what love Is, Just as her mother did.' Now, I I* 4^ t .. ,11.1 1> An i* it'll * U 11 iu t>uu, mi, 11 in j u u f v ui ucni of anything worse than tlmt said to a woman? For a man to ruin a girl and throw her shame in her face like that when she was lyiu sick?I calls It an outrage!" "And I agree with you most heartily," said Mr. Mttchel. "Such a man should be nmdc to suffer." "Oh, lie will! Never you fear for that. And. look you, wouldn't he suffer now, maybe, if he could know what you've told me? Didn't ho lay a 0111*80 on that child, prophesying It would lose Its purity? And now she's'grown up ' ain't Ills miserable Avords come true? JIoav would ho like to know that? He'd be a beast If he dldn'-i wince f when lie heard It. Ilut, after all, so niony men are beasts there's no knowIn." "flo on with your story, Mrs. Cooper. What Happened next?" tih. it nrnt worse after that! My rrleud began to cry, and be tola ner to 'shut her wbiuiperin.' Nice language, wasn't It? She tried to stop cryln nnd was cliokln bnCk her sohs that would get out some way when he went at her again. 'I,ook here!' says he. 'I've eonie here tonight to tell you soinethlu. and you may as well hear It now as later. You said you wouldn't mind the world so long as you had my love. Well, you've lost my love, so that ends that! You used to be a pretty girl, hut you've cried so much lately that your tears have washed away your good looks nnd my love with It. So, now that you understand that, perhaps you'll think different about the baby. What do you say?' My friend, she was lust struck dumb, she was so stunned it what lie said. Hut after a minute die made out to <=nv /i~ - *1 !?!?. \A\r J uu mean? Wluu about baby?' 'Well, to make It short,' lie says, 'this baby Is as much mine as yours, worse luck, and 1 lon't mean to ha ve*lt botbcrin tne In the future. So I'm goln to take It ?way.' Then site cried, aud she beg*ed. and she got out of bed and went lown on her knees and prayed to him. Hut he was stone deaf and stony heart* ??d. lie just wrapped the baby up, and. pusliin her away from hlin, he went >ut with it in his arms. She fell back In a faint on the floor, ami when they found her of course she was worse. And. what's more, she never got better lgain. She died two days later." "But she had seen her baby rgain, thanks to you, Mrs. Cooper." "Thanks to the Almighty Father, you mean. Thanks, indeed! I never comes to a Thanksglvln now but I offer up my praise, retuembcrln what happened that day, for who but the Lord led that heast of a man to my floor to lay his bundle where it was best for it to lie>" "No doubt you are right," said Mr. Miteliel. "You know what the Bible says, "Not n sparrbw shall fall.' " "Indeed I do, and many's the time I've thought -of the selfsame words. Rut that's tlie way the child got the name of Idly, or Lilian, which is the proper way of puttln It Iler own mother gave it to her." "Strange! Iler mother gave her lief first name, and her father gave lier her last." saiil Mr. Miteliel. "Yes. But that wasn't his fault. And lie didn't rrive her Ills own nnmo nr?i ilior. which would linve boon more to Ids Credit." "You moan that his name was not Vale?" "Indeed It wasn't, though I didn't know that myself for years afterward. i'ou see, in the excitement of flndlc ny friend so low and hearin that the >aby was hers I never thought to menion about the bit of paper with Vale m it nor to ask her the name of the "ather, though I doubt if she would lave told me. Women are strange that ivny. They let men deceive them and rani pie them in the dust, and then liey goes down to their graves keepin their secrets. It ain't just. The men diould suffer, too, I say." "Did she tell you nothing about the rattier?** "Oh, yes, almost everything 'cept his annie. That she never breathed by no chance. But she told me he was rich ind of good family and all that, nud die said he must have been crazy that alglit, 'cause lie never treated her bad tiefore, and she made all sorts of excuses for him till you would have thought he was an angel. But, you see, with her baby back to comfort her and lenowin she was goln to die, I suppose she found it easy like to forgive him. And near the last she give nie a packnge of letters and her ring?not a hand ring, but a lovely diamond that lic'd given her?and she told me to keep the letters and the ring for her child when she was old euough to understand." "Ah! This Is fortunate. Have you kept the letters?" "Sacred! I've kept both the letters nnd the ring. That was a trust from n dyln woman, nnd I couldn't brenk that. Why, I've seen the t)ny many a time when I've wauted bread nnd could have had It by puttln up the ring for a little money, but I never did. I was that fearful I mightn't find the money to get It out again. Why, sir, not even the love of the drink has made me part with that diamond." "You are an honest, good woman, Mrs. Cooper. Have you ever read the letters? Do tbey reveal the man's name?" "As I told you before, I didn't find out about the right name for several years, aud by then the girl was known as Yale, so I never changed It. Rut the letters was from lilni, nnd while some was only signed with one name and some only with initials there was one or two had the full name." "And what was that?" "I can't rightly tell you, because It's so long since 1 read the letters, nnd my memory ain't what it used to be. Rut I'll give yon the letters nnd the ring, nnd you can do what you think Is best for my Lily." She went to a trunk, using a key on a ring that must have contained the keys of every article of furniture that she had ever possessed, nnd handed to Mr. Mitchcl a packet containing a few letters in faded envelopes, aud also a small ring box, within which glittered - ? * - * A A ~ A ? ? % f U?l. a uiniliouu ui nrsi water, us nu. auituel saw at a glance. "Before I open these," said Mr. Mltcliel, "there are one or two more questions that I would like to ask. In the first place, tell me, does Lily resepible her mother?" "She's her mother's llvln Image. 1 was only thlnkln of that this mornin when she was here. She's just as old now ns her mother was when I first met her, and I could almost see my old friend standln before me." "Is she like her In other respects?" "She's got the same talent for slngln and dnutiu, and she seemed to take to the stuge as natural ns can l>e. Then she's got the same easy golu, simple, affectionate nature. That's been the rulu of her ns well as her mother. I'm afraid. It don't do for women to give tlielr love too easy In this world." "DW1 you over lueet tins man Morton, to whom she was supposed to be married ?" "Oh! So it's Morton she's fell in love with, Is It? Oh, yes, I've met hi in, and I owe lilin a grudge. It was him as persuaded my Idly to leave me and go to live by herself. I see now why that was. lie wanted her more to himself, I some place where I couldn't keep my eye on him, the schemiu villaiu that I lie is! Hut 1 never trusted him, nud 1 ofteu warned Idly that he was uo good." "Ah! Then you and he were not fond of eacli other?" "Fond of each other? Well, 1 should say not. Why, I despised him; that's what 1 did. 1 never took to him from the first. He never seemed to be what he pretended. So he's the man? Well, then, I'll tell you oue thing, and you'll flud I'm right." "What Is that?" "I've done my girl a wrong. I said Just now that she's Inherited the bod in her from her parents. Maybe she has inherited her mother's weakness, but I've never seen uothln in her that made me think she had any of her father's wickedness. So, if her baby was abandoned, be sure it's no doin of hers. It's the man as done it, and you'll find I'm right." "Lily denies that she knew anything, but she also declares that the father had no hand in the crime." "Ain't that like her mother? What did I tell you? She makes excuses for the man, but you'll find he's the villain, nfter all." "I)ld you ever meet a man known as Slippery Sam?" "No: I only know he had a room off and on In the house in Essex street where Lily lived. lie was a crook, 1 think." "Yes; 3*ou arc right. Then perhaps you know Preacher Jim?" "Why, everybody kuows him. He's a crank?touched iu ills head, you know?but he's a good man for nil that." "A good man? Why, is he not a criminal?" "Oh; lie says he Is, but nobody knows any wrong he ever done. lie's done lots of good. That 1 know for certain. lie's helped the sick and poor around about, and he Is awful fond of children. lie's been good to Lily, glvln her apples and candy and slch like, since she was a little girl. Oh. there's no wrong In Preacher Jim, 'cept In his mind, and that's the crookedest part of him, I guess. But see If you can find the name in the letters." Mr. Miteliel looked them over and very soon came to one, at the bottom of which was a full signature. He started upon reading it and uttered an exclamation. "Do you know who it is?" asked Mrs. Cooper. "Yes! I do know the man. What Is more, I know where to find him, and I will find him within the hour!" CHAPTER XVII. ILI\ aniA i Daiut Leaving Mrs. Cooper's, Mr. Mitchel hurried back to the rooms of the Metropolitan Pound ling society aud was glad to learn that Colonel l'ayton had uot goue. lie sent in his card, and within a few minutes the two men were ulone In the colonel's private office. "Well, Mr. Mitchel," began the colonel, "back again so soon? Changed your mind about that girl up stairs?" "In what way should 1 have changed my tnlud?" asked Mr. Mitchel. "Oh, well, you were rather impulsive this morning aud espoused her case pretty warmly, 1 thought. You K.ild von would tnko the l-esnonslhllitv of keeping the matter from tbe knowledge of tbe authorities, and that's a serious business. 1 did not know but tbat after maturer consideration you bad altered your views?come to your senses, I should call it." "You meau tbat, in your opiulou, itwould be tbe proper course to give this girl into custody, to abandon bcr to lier fate?" "There yon go again with your stupid sentimentality. Abaudou bcr to her fate. Indeed! And why uot, pray? What fate awaits lier but what she richly deserves?" "Colonel, your society Is in existence for tbe protectlou of children. Would It uot be cruel to have this young girt arrested?" "That Is not our affair. Women cense to be children when they become mothers. In tills case it is tbe cruelty to tbe infant tbat we must consider." "All! Tbe abandonment of tbe baby Is tbe paramount thought in your mind?" "ft is, most decidedly. We are tbe guardians of those who are defeuse|ess because of their immature years." "Then you believe that a person who abandons a baby should be punished?" "I do. It is tlie law, and 1 am a stickler for tbe letter of tbe law. Without laws"and their strict enforcement society must suffer. Therefore tbe guilty must be punished." "Regardless of sex?" "Assuredly. Wen and women must fare alike. In tbe eyes of justice tbe evildoer Is sexless." "I have beard tbat Justice Is blind, but I have never been told before that she Is also heartless. I think, too. tlint you are wrong, for Justice is typified by n female figure. Assuredly, then, even In the name of Justice, I may plead for one of her sisters." "Look here, Mitchel. 1 hope you have not come here to repeat all that rubbish which you talked this morning. I thought tlint perhaps you had been making further investigations." "You are right. That Is what I have done." "Then what lurco you discovered? Nothing to the girl's credit, I'll wager." "Nothing to her discredit, I assure you. But, colonel, before I tell you 'the story which 1 have hoard 1 would like to ask you why you seem to be so particularly bitter against this girl." "1 ntn not. I treat her Just as I. would auy other delinquent. What au k 4 ^ il 1 [woman's we..? | is hard enough .is A, it is.

You use odd language, Mr. Mitcliel. What do you mean?" "Pardon mo, colonel. I meant 110 offense. But you toll me that the girl Is a stranger to you. Somehow I had entertained the Idea that perhaps you had seen lier before." "Never, sir; never! That is another preposterous suggestion 011 your part, j I ivnnlil li'ii " ' * " ' - ...... juu ICIIICUIUIT UlUl 1 (JO not select my associates from tliat class." "Well, then, perhaps the girl's face seemed familiar to you; perhaps she reminded you of some one?" At these words the colonel started and then prow quite angry. Rising from his chair, he towered over Mr. Mitchel, who remained seated and looked up at him calmly. "What do you mean, sir," cried the colonel, "by your insinuations? ilow dare you come to my own otlice and presume to catechise me in this way? If you hope to help your pretty little friend by your impertinence, you calcA'1,SK?Vltf; ulat'sort* I have half a mind to kick you out, sir." "I am glad you have only half a mind, for that makes it possible for the other half of your mind to dissuade you from such a foolish project It would be very unwise for you to dismiss me unheard." "Unheard, sir? Then why the devil don't you speak? Why are you beating around the bush in this way? Come to the poiut, sir; come to -the point!" "I will do so," said Mr. Mitchel, rising and facing his companion. "It will, after all, be the best way perhaps. Well, then, colonel, to make it short, I will ask you to recall the da.v when I first cauie here and saw the Infant." "I do, quite distinctly." "Two things I will mention. You may remember that we had a little discussion regarding the proper treatment of those who abandon their children. I advocated the plan of compelling the parents to care for their offspring." "And I told you you were a fool. 1 have not changed my mind." "I afterward told you that I would prove the feasibility of my theories by discovering the father of this infant and compelling liim to support bis child." "Y'es; you did talk some such nonsense. "Well, what of it?" "I have partly kept my word. 1 know who the father is." "Yes; I heard her tell you his name. ?That in itself proved to mo that the girl Is thoroughly bad. Why, even the worst woman will keep the name of iter lover a secret." "I discovered more than that, colonel. 1 know who the grandfather is." "Why, naturally. The father being known to you," you easily go back another generation." "I am not speaking of tlie man's father, but of tlie girlY." "Oil, hers! But I tlbouglit you said she was a foundling?" "Exactly. Her own father abandoned iter, and I have le irno 1 his name." wIia la "Wliv n>nlv*o fi mystery nbout it?" "All in pood time, rolonel. You will see my point in a in ment.
