CHAFTER XI. Lube Dillon was a rare specimen of his race, a money-loving Irishman. It was the Daw in a very shrewd, farseeing intellect, but as yet indulgence had not developed it to that depcrpe of intensity which dulls perception In other directions. A few tnstes still remained to Dillon not quite dwarfed by the master passion, among them a certain pleasure in his own keenness and such creature comforts as good food and drink. The circumstances of Mrs. Callander's death exercised him a pood ileal. He would have been rather disgusted to think that his task offered no greater difficulty than tracing n common seaman, a mere vulgar thief. For Ills own credit sake he hoped and expected to find a far deeper, subtler motive below the apparent simplicity of the crime. If he could find the snilor, the supposed murderer, and prove him guilty, well auo good, he would get a thousand pounds. If he could find a more highly placed aun-wln an much the better he should

unearth some disgraceful secret which it

would be of the :ast importance to conceal, even at the price of immunity to the murderer. This would mean a heavy

Viriho tn Insure his own silence. Two

thousand iustead of one ay, more with

the possibility of retaining fees for many a year to come. With this Idea Dillon annlled ull the force of his keen, and in

some ways imaginative, mind first to invent probabilities, and then to seek proof of them, for he had often discovered very nncinected nroof while following the

scent of a false theory.

Given a beautiful young woman, sepa

rated by manv a leajrue from a husnouu

considerably older than herself, what

more likely than a lover? and given a lov

er, the amount of guilt and cruelty, deceit and treachery, depended on the strength of passion, t tip difficulties and

provocations of the position. "There must be a confidante somewhere," mused the

detective as he strolled along the com

mon the day after the funeral. "I wish

I could find her if it is a" 'her' I wish

could get a word with that Mr. Egerton." At this point in his meditations Dillon came upon a gentleman who was walking slowly along the beach, and had crossed from the water's edge as if to mount

some steps that led to the low embank ment.

Dillon recognized Egerton, and waited till be came near. "Beg your pardon, sir," he said, deferentially touching his hat "I wanted a word or two with you."

"Who are your" asked Egerton, haughtily.

"My name is Dillon, and I am in the employment of Mr. Stnndish at present"

"Ah! the detective," with a tinge of

contempt in his tone. "Are you sent from

Scotland Yard 7"

"No, sir, I am not in any service except

that of the person who engages me tem

porarily. I am free to do as my employ

er directs; to press on to full discovery er to hold my hand " "What do you want with me?" "I'd make bold to ask you a question or two, if I may, sir." "Go on, we can walk while I speak. What is it?" 'They tell me you spoke to these men, the sailors who ore suspected of the murder. Now, I'd like to know what your opinion is," "I have none. They may have done it, but there are base scoundrels of every nation who'd stab their mothers for gold and jewels." "May be so, but not their sweethearts, sir." "What do you mean?" cried Egerton, his eyes lighting up angrily, while a deep Hush passed over hie face, so deadly white before. "Do you think this tragedy a fit subject for vulgar jests?"

"Heaven forbid, sir," gravely. "But

you see rough men like me arc not occus

tomed to touch tilings gingerly as gentlefolks do. You see it's rather hard to hunt up men that may be innocent, and waste

a lot of time and money Into the bargain without looking round a bit for any other

possible party."

"I think it Is all wasted time," said

Egerton, passionately. "We'll never catch

the real murderer, though I'd give all

possess to stand by and see him die inch by inch, under the grasp of a torturer, but I don't want yon or any like you to

handle and dissect the simple details of a

life like There," stopping himself, "I am tolerably sure some bloodthirsty thief stole in and nilenced her forever, some wretch who will assuredly meet bis punishment sooner or later, who is perhaps That is all I think about It! If you want money to prosecute your search, come to me there, take that and let me go. I don't want to speak to you again." He took out his purse and put live or six sovereigns in Dillon's ready hand, then with a gesture of infinite abhorrence turned from him and walked rapidly in the direction of the pier. "Oh! I'm too dirty to bo touched, am I?" muttered the detective, looking after him with an unpleasant grin. "All the fitter to take the 'filthy lncre.' " Drawiug a small leather bag from his pocket, he put the sovereigns into it; carefully twisting the string round it he placed the bag in his breast pocket, and, quickening his pace, directed his steps to The Knoll.

There Is something wrong witn you,

my fine gentleman," he mused. "A man's

not always so wild witn grief about Ins

friend's wife, unless he's not the sort of

man though to stick a knife In a woman

unless he was riled to that extent!

Faith, jealousy and revenge have brought finer geutlemen than you into ugly places.

There could lie no such motives In tills

painful violence at this corroboration of

her own horrible suspicions. "Who couk

how the swift blood mounieu almost 10 her brow, and then left her paler than

before; how her eyes avoided his, ana sue

seemed to shrink together.

"How dare you suggest such fearful possibilities!" interrupted Lorothy, hardly able to rcfniln from screaming aloud with terror. "You arc thinking of wick

not exist here and and yot: ought not to sneak of them to any one! Don't you see

what frightful conclusions they point to? What a cruel construction the world we live in would nut upon them. You must

THE POWER OF SATIRBw 1

Bow "Don Quixote" Oct troyed an En

tire Department of Mtorature.

The objoet of Cervantes In wring

"Don Quixote" wan, as he himself declares, to render alihorrel of men the

false and absurd stories contained w the books of chivalry.

The fanaticism caused by these ro

mances was so great In Spain during

the sixteenth century that the ournlng

9f all extant copies was earnestly rejuested by the Cortes (or Legislature

of the realm.)

To destroy a passion that had taken

tuch deep root among oil classes, to break up the only reading which (at

that time) was fashionable and popular

was a bold uudertaklug, yot one in

Which Cervantes succeeded.

No books of chivalry were written

after the appearance of "Don Quixote," and from that time those In existence

have been steadily disappearing, until

now they are among the rarest of literary curiosities.

This is a solitary instance of the pow

er of genius to destroy, by a well-aimed blow, an entire department of litera

ture.

This romance, which Cervantes

threw so carelessly from hla pen, and

which he only regarded as an effort to

break up the absurd fancies about chlvalrv. has now become the oldest speci

men of romant'c fiction and one of the

most remarkable monuments of modern genius.

Ten years after Its appearance Cer

vantes publlshisd the second part of "Don Onisote." which Is even bottet

than the first It was written in nis

old age, whan In prison, and finished

when he felt the hand of deatn pressing cold and heavy upon him; so that both admiration and reverence are due

to the living power of "Don Quixoteand to the genius of Cervantes.

A second Intention or application ot

the poet was t dcplot in "Don Quixote" all or any forms of ill-judged, vis

ionary enthusiasm, as contrasted with the simple solid sense of hottest Sanche Panza.Ctirlons Questions.

It matters far less even wnai mis knowledge is than the way in which it

his tone. "Now," he resumed when to

Dorothy's delight the door opened to ad

mit Standish, who came in quickly, say

ing: "You here, Dillon?" He stopped beside Dorothy.

"Yes, sir. I just eame in, thinking you

were here.

"Well," returned Standish, somewhat impatiently, "Miss Wynn looks very much exhausted. The sooner we can

leave her to rest the better." While he spoke Dorothy, as if unconsciously, slipped her arm through his and drew close to htm, so that, he felt the beating of her

henrt, the tremor that occasionally ran

through her slight frame.

"I am sorry I dlsturlteu the young

lady." With an abrupt bow and a satis

fied smile the detective left tno room,

thinking: "She could tell a good bit if she chose. She was in a proper fright when

hinted at Jealousy. I suspect I sailed

Meantime StandiBh, looking kindly into

Dorothy's eyes, exclaimed.: "I was afraid

that fellow's questions would only open

vour wounds; I wanted to be with you

when he came. You arc) looking so pale

and worn, Dorothy! I must get you away

frpin this."

Dorothy withdrew her arm from his

and sat down, beginning to, put her papers

and letters together.

"I should lie pleased, too. The sight of

this room, of everything, the recollection

of our happy days is insupportable.'

"I have been consulting with Miss

Oakeley. Mrs. Callander wants you all

to go to her house m London ait ktast

till you can settle in nn abode of your I

"I should like to bo with Henrietta, ut not with Mrs. Callander. You must . . ...... i r....ii

Do you know, she lias just gone in to pay her son an unexpected visit?"

Indeed!" cried Dorothy, dismayed. I

am sorry it will irritate nun, aim ne may

wound her. His dislike to the idea of seo-

her almost alarms me. It is so un

natural, it is uulilie him when he is him

self."

I imagine that her unfriendly feeling

to his sweet wife was a source of annoyance to him, and now she Is gone he resents it as he never would have done during her lifetime."

Dorothy bent her head, but did not reply. "Tlien I have your permission to arrange so far your winter abode, at least, with Miss Oakeley?" "Yes, dear Paul. Shall you Ik- long away?" "As short a time as I can manage a month, pcrhnps. Indeed, I must come back to look after you and the children, for noor Callander seems to shrink from

Our FadinR Literature. An expert in ink aud paper has made a startling discovery. He announces that none of the books being printed now will be in existence by the middle of the nest century. The books that have survived for two or three centuries were not made of shoddy. The paper was hand made, and the material used was honest rags. The Ink was made from nutgalls. Nowadays he says most of the paper is of wood pulp, treated with aeids, and the Ink Is composed of substances that arc foreign to the paper aud eat Into It. The books will all rot away. Will It be a disastet If the folk a hundred years from now do not have the piles ami piles of books printed to-day to read? It will lie a blessiug, aud save a considerable pr ii. .11 th race from idiocy. All th

drivel now lieing printed Is doomed Nature has her own remedies, and th one for this luk Itch Is poor paper aud rotten luk, evidently. So, most of the novelists and poets might as well give thn l.tiMi of liavtne posterity read

their works. Posterity will be too busj trying to write something itself. Pitts burg News. A Genius for Flounce.
