" "OaveBton , killed , him, ' I suppose," she said in a matter-of-fact tone. "You think that?" Victor- looked at her half-surprised. "You think him capable of "that?" " "Oh, " be ' capable of worse things than that -capable, in ' fact, , of" any crime which would put money in his pocket and could not easily be found out. .(He's a cool card, is Ralph Gaveston." Victor stroked his - mustache and stared meditatively at the Jarap. "I admit," he Bald, "that my. second, Rhedan, thought the affair inexplicable as an accident. He is positive that the second pistol was in its case when we exchanged shots and neither I nor he saw - Varney put it in his pocket or interfere with it in ; any way. ' "Still, it's possible ,that , Gaveston may have, put, it there, believing it to be unloaded, and; in view of the fatal

consequences of his error, may have been frightened to confess it. I find it difficult to believe that he actually contrived his cousin's death. Besides, I don't see what he stands to gain by it." Jenny flicked the ash off her cigarette. "We may see that presently," ehe remarked. "Varney may have left him some money." She turned sharply. "Why didn't you return Varney's fire?" "Do you suppose I wanted to kill the man?" "Why not? He was out to kill you. He insulted you grossly. I suppose it was out of consideration for the fair

Leslie," she sneered. He did not answer. He took a cigarette from the case on the little table beside her, lit it, and walked restlessly about the room. She watched him, a cruel gleam in her eyes. She broke into a harsh, mirthless laugh. " She cried, shrilly. "Oh, I can read your innermost thoughts! You are saying to yourself, 'Now she's free! Now she's free! Aren't you sorry we told her? Don't you hate me for it?" She had indeed, divined his thoughts the thoughts which had forced themselves upon him against his will ever since he had taken his last farewell of the dead man lying in the Boulogne hotel. To save Leslie he had dug a gulf between her and himself which even death could not bridge. Mrs. Melas Taunts Steele for His Love. "Now," went on the fierce-eyed woman mockingly, "if only she thought that you, too, were free, how nicely it could all be arranged. No scandal, no fuss. After a decent and respectable interval the charming young widow marries her first love, her late husband's old friend. "Quite an idyil. And now I've spoiled it all.

"What a pity that Gaveston didn't murder his cousin before he had heard

of the Hounslow marriage! But then, of course, there wouldn't have been a fight, and Gaveston mightn't have had the chance." Victor shrugged his square shoulders. "Go on," he said; "it amuses you and it assists the current of my thoughts." She lay back on the cushions hugging her "knees and looking up at the ceiling. "I wonder, after all," she murmured, dreamily, "if you and Gaveston didn't plan this between you. You might have struck a bargain. But no! It's too late now." With a sudden spring she leaped to the floor amid a whirl and swish of draperies and confronted

him. She snapped her fingers in his

face. "Too late," she shrieked derisively, "for I've got you I've got you! I swore Leslie Varney should not

have you!" He met her gaze sternly and contemptuously. "You have got me, have you? Am I any nearer to you than before?" he asked. "At any moment I may return to Egypt. You will never see me again we will see if that is any consolation to you. What you have done is to stop yourself marrying any other man." For a moment he read intense hate

in her eyes. She recoiled a pace. "You 1 brute!... she muttered. "You ungrateful brute! Wasn't It to help you that I declared myself your wife?" ,"I admit that. I don't want to be ungrateful. .; I did not , ask, this sacrifice of you. I should never have Imagined it. ' Mrs..' Varney ought to be grateful to you also," he added, with a touch of. bitterness. "Bah!" he turned away half ashamed. "Why do you taunt me like this? I want to be good friends with you?" "Friends! I daresay.' . Look here, Victor, : have' I made ' it clear to you that I love you desperately, and that I mean to have you? I always loved you from the moment you pitched that Levantine out of the East and West bar. I don't know why you affected '' me so. - It " may have been

your absurd shyness and purltanism

the contrast you afforded to the other men. - - "I used to think of-you in Kimberley and Jo'burg among all those grea'sy millionaires and - diamond brokers. Funny how you haunted my thoughts." A softer light came into her eyes. "I used to sit dreaming of you behind the harem lattices while the slave girls were singing their weird love songs. And when you came aboard the launch at Alexandria I knew you were, after all, the one man for me." "I'm sorry," said Victor simply. "I like you very much." I'm very grateful" the words tasted bitter in bis mouth "for what you have done. But it is no use pretending that I love you." "You love Leslie Varney?" There are two things about which an honest man cannot bring himself to lie his love and his political creed. Victor, was weary of evasions. Besides, her love gave this woman a right to know. "If you must have it yes," he said. "I've always loved her." She drew, in her breath quickly and

regarded him fixedly. One may have expected something a long time and yet be unprepared when It comes. A sound between - a sob and a moan escaped her. - She - turned toward the window, drew the curtain, and looked out into the quiet Kensington street.

"You love her," she repeated; "that could, starchy English woman! 'Think how she insulted you the other night because she thought you had deceived

her about herp recious marriage lines:

Don't you think I would have forgiven

you that, and worse a hundred times over? Love! she doesn't know the

meaning of the word. (To be continued.)
