woman ana kissed her. "1 called to see Mr. Conover on a matter of sOthe Importance. The footman was not sure whether he could -or would—see me or not So, while I was waiting for him to find out, 1 thought I heard your voice In here and ventured in.' Good evening. Miss Lanier. You’ll pardon my left hand?” The right he held behind him, yet in one of the mirrors Anice could see the knuckles were swathed in plaster. The hand he offered, too. was bruised, cut and discolored. “I —I had a slight accident.” he said hastily, noting her glance. “Nothing of importance. I —" “Mr. Conover has told us of it,” answered Anice. "It was splendid of you, Clive! You risked your life to —” “To get out of a fight that my own folly had brought on. That was aIL I’m afraid my tour wasn’t exactly a success. In fact, I fear it ’will go down in Mountain State annals as the colossal failure of the century. So I’m back.’* "You’ve given up?” she asked in quick interest - f “Why? Do you want me to?” “No.” Her monosyllable told little. Her eyes, which he alone could see, told more. Clive was satisfied. “I have not given up,” he said simply, "and I am not going to.” “Oh, but, Clive,” put lh his aunt, finding her voice at last after the shock of seeing Standish walk thus boldly into the Ucfa’B den. "You’d really belter give up Ihe whole silly business. I’m sure Mr. Conover would be so pleased.” “I don’t doubt it,” replied Standish, smiling grimly at Anice over the old lady’s bobbing head, “but I’m afraid it is a pleasure that’s at least deferred. The kind that Solomon tells us ‘maketh the heart sick.’ I’m still In the race. Very much In It.” “Why do you want to see Mr. Conover?” asked Anice, “or Is that an lmpertinent—?” “Not in the least. I want to come to an understanding with him. Affairs have reached a point where that is necessary.” “An understanding?’* “Yes. As long as he contented himself with ordering his fellows to lampoon and villify myself and the League I made no complaint. It was dirty, but I suppose it was politics. But when he muzzles the press, orders the police and the mayor of the cities to refuse me fair play, and sets thugs to attack me and illegally steals the State conventions, it’s time to have it out with him face to face. That is why I am here, and why 1 shan’t leave until I have seen him. 1 hadn’t meant to say all this to you,’ he added, ashamed of his own heat “but—” “Well,” came the Railroader’s stri dent tones from the hall outside “where Is he, then?” The portieres were swished aside with a jerk that set the curtain rings to jingling, and Caleb Conover, in rid tag dress, hatted, spurred and slash lng his crop against one booted leg, filled the narrow doorway. Mrs. Conover gave a little gasp of fear. Anice Lanier let fall ever her bright face the mask of quiet reserve It always wore in her employer's presence. Clive rose and took a step toward his unwelcoming host And so, for ten seconds, the rival candidates faced each other in silence —a silence with promise of storm. (To Be Continued.)
