CHAPTER

XIV.

TAMIXO A GIRL.

Sit trill be remembered that Marah bad sstrongly suspected that her abduction and imprisonment bad been planned by her ncle.

Of this opinion her mind had not yet been disabused. When Colonel Porter so suddenly and unexpectedly stood before her, the girl's first idea was that having discovered her escape they had followed her thither for the purpose of recapture and conveying her back. She would have fled at once, but the sudden shock altogether unnerved her.

Besides the Colonel had his hand once more upon her shoulder, and his grip was by no means a light one. In his hands she was powerless enough. She gave a little cry of recognition, and then stood as still and as cold as marble. "You ungrateful girl it is well that your friends have not given you up. Otherwise what ruin would overtake you it is not hard to predict, philanderlog in the streets of a city at this time of night."

irah's lips moved a little. The old terror was upon her she could only murmur incoherently something about her husband, and her right to with him at any and every hour. "Your huabaadt Yes Dr. Grudge, here is the man, considerably the worse for wear. No time like the present time ion't let the ehance escape you."

If it was Arthur whom he hinted might escape, certainly the escape seemed likely to be made in an entirely different way from that hinted at, for at the moment Colonel Porter called the attention of tbe rest to hitn he quietly slipped through the arms of Cripple Dave and lay in a motionless heap on thepave.

Marah, half In duty, half in pity, would have sprung to his side, but the hold upon her arm never relaxed. "Shatnoless girl!" coutinued the Colonel, "when you know the full horror of the gulf into which you are striving to tbruMt yourself, you will see how great a claim we have on your gratitude as well as your lovo. Meantime you shall go back to your home. Perhaps patieut tenderness and more than paternal care may win you from these foolish fancies. Come."

He drew the girl toward the hack as he spoke, but she shrank away, her eyes gleaming with terror. A "No, not back there! Take me anywhere elso, do what you will with me, but do not take me there again!" "Foolish child, do not compel me to uaetho forco which you must know the law empowers me to employ. No harm will come to you. We will take the train for Philadelphia to-uight, and to-morrow will lliid you on£fe more at your old homo. Tho man to whom you would cling Is an incurable maniac. See.

^Slarah gave in. She ncarcely saw that to which uer guardian called uer attention. Mis promise to take her to Elm Lodgo tiled her mind just now—she forot all else. Hesitating no longer, she ollowed him like a child.

Arthur went, and Marah went, and Cripplo Dave, who fancied that for a man whose antecedents were so questionable, silence iu such a case was the safer plan, was loft standing alone and unnoticed in front of Mrs. MaUill Iodine houao.

Ho scratched his head in doubt,clinched bis lists in anger, and shambled away with the unpleasant consciousness tfapt he must go somewhere, and yet had no nlaco to go.

As for Marah, for the time »he almost forgot the existence not only of Dave, but of Arthur Sidney himself. She closed her eyes aud resigned herself to

that Colonel Porter brought

her back to Elm Lodge was a partial guarantee of personal safety. If he had meditated anything against it uow would have been the time to make away with her.

It might have been easy to make her personally disappear, aud no one would have been much the wiser.

Perhaps the Coloitel was not entitled to much credit in this matter. In the first place Louvlllo had become a living, moving, acting factor in all his schemes, and Lonvllle knew that his interest rested eventually on bis being able to marry Marah. In tho next place, with Marah dead came Sldnev living. He was tiy no means disposed of.

The first thing to do was to have the al-caUed marriage pronounced null and void.

In this there was not so much prospective difficulty. With Sidney In an aavlutu, and Western divorce courts in operation, what us® was there for money if it could

A day or two passed before any alhw Ions were made to past events. She took her meals in her room, eating, drinking and sleeping in a kind of ap* thv from which Iter guardian somehow hesitated to awakea her.

He came in one afternoon with a •mile on hta face, and drew a chair op toward Marah, who was sitting by an

"Don't talk so hopelessly, my dear. I trust the day will soon come when you will only remember these unpleasant results of your escapade as shadows by some nameless form in a halfforgotten dream." "Do not take it so to heart that you have been deceived by that miserable young man. I have reason to believe that you are not the only one caught in the snares he seemed to know so wall how to spread. Pray bear up-forget this silly, school-girl's fancy, and face the intelligence that I bring you. You have seen the last of him forever!"

As be spoke the colonel spread out a newspaper which he carried in his hand,

and pointed with his forefinger to a paragraph in one corner. She did not look at it her eyes were on Porter. "You ban not deceive me. You have a purpose, and I am worth nothing for that purpose so long as I am the wife of Arthur Sidney."

Something of the old fire of life came creeping back to Marah. She had no confidence in this protested interest in her welfare, and was not afraid to say so. As she spoke she drew from her bosom a paper which she held up almost like a shield.

It was the certificate that attested her marriage to Atthur Sidney. Colonel Porter saw It and recognised it. Though Marah made a motion to return it to its late hiding-place, he was too quick for her. The set smile disappeared from bis face, and the old frown came back. He caught the paper from her fingers and tore it into a dozen pieces.

The action aroused Marah still more. She bad indeed intended to let herself be guided by her uncle, but when he tore the paper she felt once more the spirit of opposition arising within her, and with it came surging back her love for Arthur. ..

She did not believe her guardian's story, so far as she had heard it. She never had believed it, yet for tbe last few days she had been quite cordially hating her husband.

No wonder. His mysterious movement on the night of their wedding, the suspense of Mrs. MaGill's boardlnghou.ie, the terror of Lide Cronin's pris-on-cell and the lonesome dreariness of her present position, made her look a none too lenient judge. She forgot his soft voice and softer touch, the love in his eyes and the words on his lips, and remembered only tbe man who, having called her wife,bad failed to protect her. She had wanted a shield, and found that now she had not only her own battles to fight, but her husband's also.

It is possible, then, that if she had had her own way a little longer, she might have ended by hating him at least as heartily as she did Lonvllle Porter.

The colonel scarcely suspected all this. He had some intelligence to communicate, and though he went about it very badly.he was obstinately bent on finishing ills task.

When he saw the girl did not even glauce at his paper, h6 called her attention to it again. yr

Then she looked down #ndro«d. "PROBAWtiV DROWNED.—At th« Street Ferry, l»*«t n«JB»t,

So Marah read, and with the reading came back all her love for Sidney—love, hopeless but true. ..HI

This paragraph she did not doubt, she did not believe she was scarcely cool enougb for either. She took & woman refuge, and Durst Into a fit of hysterical weeping.

Colonel Porter thought the girl spirit was broken, and after some awkward attempts at consolation, withdrew.

He never was more mistaken. There was hope in her smile, opportunity in her apathy, but danger in her tears.

CHAPTER XV.

Arthur Sidney who

The reader may be sure that he was not the

protege

of Cripple Dave and the

ex- inmate of Mrs. MaGill's boardiughouse. ,, He had an individuality of his own, and held ou to it, tooth and nail, though it had given, and was giving him, any amount of trouble. Mark Renfrew, his friend, had run down to counsel with him, at his earnest solicitation, and on the way had, as waa his usual custom, kept his eyes open.

In consequence, he saw a certain Dr. Grudge, from whom he had already aided Arthur to escape, and at onc« divined his business. He watched him still more closely, to make sure there was no mistake, and by so doiog, was very nearly too latet

Time just now waa important to Sldnev. He did not exactly lose his wits— under his exact circumstances, most men would have done just as he did— but he bolted away in such a hurry that he scarcely knew what he was doing, or whither he was going.

The dash of the cold night air against his face had an almost instantaneous effect. It cleared bis brain, as if by magic. He knew now exactly where be was,and what was best to be done. He had already considered over such a contingency, and chosen his line of retreat. All he had to do now was to remember and to act,

Tbe notice waa short, indeed. As he made his exit at the rear door of the cottage, Colonel Porter waa at the front. He was still in plain view. In the moonlight, when Dr. Grudge and his assistants came up and made their brief halt, while Porter put them upon tbe track.

Grudge was drawing up and inaction meant something almost as bad as death. In spite of the pain, he still kept on, though at a slower rate. The inevitable began to seem close at hand.

He could not poasibly stand it to double and make his way to the clump of timber in the distance, and something had to be done quickly. Perhaps it would have been better if Renfrew and he bad made a fight of it. "Halt!" shouted Grudge, and "halt!" shouted a couple men close behind him. Between Arthur and capture there were only a few yards now—and it was just about aa far to the river bank.

He made one more effort he bounded forward as fleetly as ever, and with a shout of defiance flung himself into the river.

At the spot where Arthur struck the river side ft was some distance down to the water, but it was an almost perpendicular descent, and he hit the surface fairly, and with a great splash that came to the ears of the pursuers. They reached the bank a moment later, but neither Grudge nor his men seemed to care about taking the leap. Arthur could plainly be seen, some distance away, swunmlng quite strongly for the middle of the stream.

It may have been simply from excitement, or it may have been to carry out a fell purpose to which he had already made np his mind without hesitation Dr. Grudge drew the revolver which he always carried and took steady aim at the swimmer. The way the weapon dropped into line showed that he was no novice in its use. As the muzzle covered the mark he pulled the trigger.

There was a flash, a sharp report, and the head of the fugitive disappeared under the water, but no damage had been done.

One of the men threw up the arm of his principal just as his finger tightened and the bullet flew wide of its mark.

The tones of Dr. Grudge suddenly took a change. From somewhere in the darkness a small boat, pulled bv a single man, had shot into view. When Sidney's head emerged from under the water, after ducking at the shet, the boat was not far away, and Arthur swam directly toward it.

After a brief conference with the occupant, Arthur could be seen climbing in at the bow, and it was then that Dr. Grudge called out to the man, endeavoring to buy him into his service.

He might have saved himsOlf tbe trouble. The man gathered up bla oars, and without even a look at tbe group that was eagerly watching him from the bank, bent to his work, and with a steady, powerful stroke, went sweeping down the river." "Good-by," said the man who!had struck up the arm of the doctor. "That settles it. He's an old pard and knows the way of the water, you bet. Bin loaffh' 'round all ready to pick him up mr-vunr -ttroj^txr i/flp ltx»l -tap-a vrhllB before you git on the t»il ®8'in-" •#«r*

There was no sign 'of another boat anywhere, and as the man who had come to the aid of Sidney had sheered off In the direction of the opposite bank, present pursuit seemed impossible. So the party stood there and watched the fugitive fading away in the darkness. "Nevertheless I'll have him again, or

name is not Grudge. I never fail, did not altogether give up the pursuit, either, but followed along the bank until finally he procured a boat but by that time all traces of Sidney were lost.

After pulling backward and forward for some hours, he finally became satisfied that nothing more could then be done, and turned back to take counsel with Colonel Porter. With the latter he was in communication for some days, until finally Porter announced that be i^as upon tne trail of Marah, and probably upon that of Sidney.

Then they joined forces, with what result the reader has already seen. The Arthur Sidney that they were after was safe enough.

The appearance of the boatman was an entirely unexpected piece of good fortune. He entered the boat with the expectation that the man would turn against him—when Grudge called out his offer, he was certain of it yet the BiftD never once looked bftok* A word from him would had decided Sidney's

full of wondor. Between times he shivered from his bath, and groaned softly with the pain in his wounded member.

By the advice of the man, he bandaged tbe ankle with a wet cloth, and then awaited with some impatience the time when they should reach the promised haven of rest.

When they did reach it, this Sidney also was full of fever and of pain. He lay down on a couch prepared for him, and remained there for some days.

Who his benefactor was, he did not at Mice find out. He called him "old man," In a friendly, affectionate sort of way, and the name soon began to seem so natural that there was no need for any other.

While he lay there in the shanty, He sent the "old man" prowling around Colonel Porter's residence in search of information, and if possible, to carry Marah a note. From him he learned that she seemed to have disappeared, and he at once concluded that his friend had taken care of her, probably escorting her asfar as the city of New York, where it was to be supposed that they might meet.

On the strength of this, Sidney wrote letters to both Renfrew and Marah—if neither was reoeived, then it was not Arthur's fault.

One day the "old man" returned at rather a late hour, and bore news. "They've got her agin. She looks awful, I tell you and I don't trust Porter or that son of his'n. If you want to see her alive agin, you'd better cut in quick."

At this, Sidney leaped up from where he was lying, and vowed that he would see his wife that very day. So he and the "old man" sailed away on an errand fraught with much uncertainty, and a great deal more danger than the twain wot of. [TO AS coNnsruHD miXT WKBK.]

A Miss BUCHANAN, once rallying brave soldier on his courage, said "No Captain Johnson do you really mean to tell me you can walk up to the cannon's mouth without fear?"
