Diamonds of Malopo By VICTOR ROUSSEAU Copyright by W. G. Chapman lllllllinilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllHlllllUlll IlillltlilllHllillllililllilllllllllllllllllllllllll

"NO, MR. GARRETT" SYNOPSIS. — Winton Garrett, twenty-five and just out of college. calls by appointment on Arctge Garrett, his New York cousin and executor, to receive hii. inheritance of 1100,000. Ar--chile, honest, an easy mark and a fool for luck, assures Winton that he is practically a millionaire, as he has invested all'but 110 000 in a rubber plantation in ei er the East or West Indies and in a controlling interest in the Big Malopo diamond mine, somewhere or other in South Africa, sold him as a special favor by a Dutch promoter named De Witt. Winton, en route to his, mine, finds the town of Taungs wildly excited over a big strike at Maiopo. Including the 95-carat “De W»tt diamond.” Two coach passengers are a disreputable old prospector. Daddy Seaton, and his daughter Sheila, tin the Journey > passenger, who turns out to be De Witt himself, insults Sheila. Winton fights De Witt and knocks him out. Sheila tells him to turn back. She says that her father Is a broken English army officer. who has killed a man and is therefore in De Witt s power, that De Witt is all-powerful, being backed by Judge Davis, president of the diamond syndicate and also the resident magistrate and Judge of the native protectorate. Winton finds Malopo tn a turmoil, both over the strike and the theft of the De Witt diamond. He discloses his Identity. He finds Sheila is cashier tn a restaurant.

CHAPTER IV Fra mad. He saw her start, and then bend hastily over the money she was reckoning. But the flush that overspread her face showed her confusion., and when, compelled by Winton’s presence, she raised her head, her mortification was too evident for Winton’s feelings. Suddenly he understood the inean-_ Ing of her self-depreciatory words In the coach. A glance at the smirking waitresses, who were plainly of a class that had drifted to the fields for adventure and predatory purjKises showed him the humiliation of the girl’s position. He remembered what she had told him about two kinds of women; and in a flash he understood more than he could have learned in the course of a detailed explanation. He saw the invisible class barrier that r recognized two ami only two conditions. On one side you were of the chosen; on the other, you shared the circumstances of the most vile. There were no subtle nuances of station here, nothing by which a decent woman wa* recognized a* such, unless she came ' to Malopo Ip the care of some man of Independent means. And a flood of pity surged over the young man: He strode impulsively toward the desk. “Miss Seaton!” he exclaimed. “I—" She shook her head in vexation. "You must go away, Mr. Garrett," she j said. "I want to see you. to speak with you." "I dare not. Plense go away!” 1 Her distress was so evident that Winton could do nothing but obey. J "At least let me meet you afterward.” he pleaded. “Let me walk home with • j ou. I shall wait for you on the Stoep.” “If only you’ll go away now—" begged Sheila. Winton went to a table As he sat down he was conscious of the glance of the hotel proprietor, w ho stood near the entrance. The fellow was watch-j Ing Winton and appraising him. Win- | ton saw the waitresses glancing at him j and smiling. Ami then he understood still mon- than before. The flashy women in the Continental I dining rcom were there much less for their ability to wait than to draw customers. And Sheila, in the cashier’s seat, was the particular magnet of the place. And Winton might be a “find." The proprietor was .izlng hiiu up as a potential captive of his cashier. He was estimating him In terms of pounds and shillings brought to the bar of I the Continental. The waitresses, al- ; ways alert for new victims with money. j were watching him. too. XX inton understood Sheila’s shame to tlie full. It was his now, and it overwhelmed him. He fttust get the i glri away from that place. Not for an instant did it occur to Kim to doubt her. He saw the desperation that had driven her to her employment, tied to a drunken, good-for-nothing father, in a land where women were of two kinds alone, the parasites and the homemakers. He did not raise his eyes to the desk again, but ate his meal hurriedly, ignoring the friendly approaches of his waitress, and went out upon the stoep. He sat down, looking across the market square. The sun had set, and darkness was coming on with the swiftness of those low latitudes. Hej began planning busily for Sheila and her father. He must discover what hold De Witt had over Daddy Seaton. If he’couid break that bond and restore the old man's self-respect the beginning would have been made. “Well, it’s a fine evening, ain’t it.* said a voice beside him. Winton swung round, to see the little man whom tie had noticed before supper standing against the wall of the hotel. He started. How long the man bad been there he could not Imagine, hut be felt almost as If his thoughts had been laid bare. The man dropped into the chair beside him. “And what do you think of this countryr he continued, fixing Winton with his black eyes. “Stranger. ain’t you? I spotted you as soon as yon came in this afternoon..’’ “Yea. Ym a stranger," answered Wintea curtly.

I “There ain’t many Americans in this country yet, - but they won t be long codling. You always find ’em where the money is," said the tittle man. “Interested in a claim?” “I might be,” answered Winton. “As a rule I keep my affairs to myself.” “Oh, no offense." said the little man ! hastily. “We’re all here for the money, 1 ain’t we? Os course, you’re dead right ito take that stand. You don’t know me and I don’t know you. Town’s full of rogues and I. D. B. men, anyway. TJrnt was a smart trick getting away with the De Witt stone, eh? But the police will prove too smart for those fellows—if it ain’t a lie." Winton said nothing. He disliked the little man intensely. He felt an atmosphere of stealth and moral uncleanness exuding from him. and the little man was getting on Winton’s nerves by the way he fidgeted, first with one arin and then with the other; then with one leg and then with, the other. x “This L D. B. game now—you’ve heard of It, 1 suppose, even though you are a stranger? Illicit diamond buying—It’s as old as the first diamond claim pegged out in Kimberley. Seven years on the breakwater at Cqpe Town to buy diamonds that way, and moM of the big men in this country started in that game. Perfectly respectable now, and they ought to have the convict brund stamped all over them. But It’s a temptation, when a Kaffir laborer knows more ways of hiding a stone than any white man could think of. Takes a shrewd compound manager to keep tab on them. They used to swallow them, but we countered that. Then they’d cut holes in. their skin and bury them, till we started the medical examination as well us the daily search. Then tf»ey hid them in their dogs, and we shut the dogs out of the compounds. There, was one fellow, a dentist, used to. stop ■Their teeth with them. And that game wasn’t worked out before they had a new trick. “Yes, Maiopo's a queer place," he continued. “Between you and me, I don’t believe that De Witt stone was picked up here at all. De Witt bropght it up from Kimberley and planted it on the Big Malopo claim. That’s what most people are saying. Just an advertising trick to boom his stock, and the same with the stealing. That stone wasn’t stolen." “See here!” cried Winton, goaded to exasperation. "What in the mime of thunder do you meun by calling the Big Malopo Mr. De Witt's? What has Mr. De Witt to do with it?" The little man laughed and nudged Winton jovially in the side. The touch of his lingers against Winton’s coat was almost intolerable. Winton moved bis chair away. “Now it’s you who are asking questions," said the little man. “You know what y<>u know and 1 know what I know, eh?" He chuckled. rose up, and walked away. Whatever the object of bis address might have been, |t had succeeded in stinging Winton in his tenderest place. Everybody in Maiopo ■.eemed to take it for granted that De Witt already owned the Big Malopo. Even Ned Burn* had taken the stone to I»e Witt. And it had been placed «n exhibition in the Syndicate bank. Winton was raging. He meant to show Malopo who owned the claim, and he had forgotten all his warnings alamt being cautious. A mob of men from the dining room came out upon the porch, laughing and joking. Inside the hotel Winton heard two in altercation, the subject of their dispute being, apparently, one of the waitresses. The meal waa over. Winton res- and looked through the doorway. Then tie saw Sheila putting on her list beside'the cashier's desk. A man sjioke to her as she left the room, bul she walked post him. and went* down the steps before Winton could intercept her. He followed her. und as he did*so be heard one of lhe men on the porch make n Jesting remark about him to n companion. Winton did not heed it. He caught up with the girl at the coiner of tue Mock. "Miss Seaton!” he began. She turned and stopped. “Mr. Garrett— ” she began. -You asked me to go away, and I did so. 1 thought you would allow inf— - ' “What is it that you want?" asked Sheila. “I want to help you.

Little French Village Which Wat Lost in the Mountain* Now Center of Thriving Industry. Tarare. in east central France. is .he city of muslins. It was formerly a little village lust In th* Beaujolais mountains, but now it is the center of a thriving industry. For rm/re than half a century it has conducted a world-wide trade tn the finest muslins, the secret of making which originally came from India; and as a result of that trade the village has become famous. Each year, m honor of Slmonet. the founder of the mills. the people celebrate the muslin festival, which calls forth the liveliest holiday spirit in all of tbs inhabitants. Last year the festival lasted three days, during which the little city was truly a city of muslin. Everywhere houses, balconies and facades all hot disappeared under the light and color-

Ime since I came to Malopo," answered tite girl bitterly. “I mean it" “You mean that you are quixotic enough to wish to do a kindness without any return. No. Mr. Garrett. And I want you to forget that you ever met me.” She turned again and began walking quickly along the dark street, but Winton kept at her side. “But you are unreasonable,” he cried. “Miss Seaton, surely you are not ro rich In friendships that you can reject one which is disinterested." “Mr. Garrett,” she answered, stopping once more and looking him squarely In the face, “I am not so friendless as you think. And I do not accept friends out of pity. If you are a gentleman, you will not speak to me again, not notice me, in 1 the Continental, or anywhere. Good night; and let this be good-by." He watched her until her figure was lost in the murky mazes of the foal streets that stretched toward the desert. His heart sunk. There was nothing more that he could do, then. He bated M-’lopo now; he wished he had never come. Looking bhek toward the single elec trie light that stood at the corner of the market square, he fancied that he perceived the figure of the little man who hud talked with him upon the stoep of the hotel. He was standing with another, pointing after him. Winton strode away. He had entirely forgotten Burns’ warning; and if be ha<T remembered it would not have made any difference. He wanted to get out toward the desert again, to be alone. Old clothes shops, which thrived upon the wages of the native gangs brought to work in the compounds, booths of Greek. Syrian, and Indian petidlers, alternating with vacant lots, lined the sandy track. There ware mean little alleys that extended at right angles, terminating in shadows. The moonlight, straggling fitfully through a bank of clouds, something rarely seen in the dry season, disclosed the desert beyond. Near the outskirts of the town was a new structure consisting of about a score of brick houses of uniform height and a single story each, joined to form two sides of a square. On the third side was another street, with vacant lots fronting it; on the fourth barbed

wire, and the desert beyond. In the center was a well. These houses. 1 which were of the crudest construction, contained apparently but two rooms apiece., and the aspect of the whole construction was dismal beyond imagination. Only two or three seemed to Ire inhabited, and this fact was to be learned by the tin cans and other refuse that had been thrown out from the doors. Winton turned from the place in disgust and made his way toward the en i of the street, looking upon the desert. Then he perceived two men close behind him. * Since the tittle man was not one of them, how'ever, he thought little of tire matter, and. as they came quickly toward him. he stepired aside to let them take the harder center of the road. When they were almost abreast of him they separated, with the evident intention of passing on either side. For tire first time Winton scented mjs<diief. He put his baud to his pocket, where lay Ned Burns' revolver. He had half drawn it when 11 wW desired tc tire ground, aad the two leaped at him.

ful decorations, which were aiways pretty and sometimes Ingenious. Above the middle of the streets were suspended domes from which long streamers of muslin were draped in graceful curves to the second-floor windows of the houses; reseda, cream, fvory and rose predominate—gay and beautiful . colors like garlands of flowers hanging from Immense corals. Vehicles of all kinds were adorned with fancy muslins and gave the scene a brilliancy such as bright flowers give to the festivals of southern California. * - Three Million Skeletons on View. The Paris catacombs are again becoming* one of the show places of the city. The great labyrinth of corridors cut from stone hold the skeletons of more than 3.000.000 persons who have died in Paris during several centuries.

He gained his feet just in touv, ..nt sent the men staggering back with -a, couple of blows in the face. They came at him again. A second blow on the head felled Winton to th* ground. His assailants were upon him, kicking and pounding him. One of them put his hand into his pocket and drew something forth, holding it up to his companion with an exultant cry. It seemed to be a small stone, wrapped in tissue paper. An Instant iater it lay in the man’s palm, an irregularly shaped pebble, of no particular luster. “It’s the De Witt I” yelled the other, and. turning to Winton, kicked him again. “The game’s up, my la.i,” he shouted. “We were tipped off about you. and we've got you fair. Are you coming quietly?” At first bewildered, Winton now discerned that the men wore the uniform of the town police. He saw the trap into which he had fallen. The little man had placed the stone in his pocket while they sat side by side on the stoep of tire hotel, an hour before. He saw the consequences. He would ! be flung into jail, held there, and. if not I railroaded to the breakwater by Judge Davis, at least prevented from attend-: ing the meeting in the Chamber of j Commerce the following morning. De > Witt had laid his scheme well. The fury that filled him at the- reall- : zation of his predicament momentarily paralyzed him. He lay perfectly still. One of his assailants stooped over him and looked into his face. “You knocked him out for fair, Rob j erts," he said. “This will mean promotion for us." ’ i "Ar I De Wilt’ll pay through the nose. lie'll babe to,” answered the other meaningly. “Tin re was some papers we was to 1 look for," said his companion. The two were off their guard as Winton sprang. But be rather seemed to fly from his supine position to his feet with an instantaneous co-ordination of | movements. Before the amazed police , could meet his onslaught he had snatched the baton from the one who had struck him down, and brought it crashing down on h(p skull. The man dropped upon his hands and kuees, moaning, and began crawling with apparently aimless movements, this way und that. The second policeman, who did not lack pluck, bad time to draw truncheon and attack Wipton. who dodged in under a blow which glanced harmlessly off his arm. and landed his fist full on his mouth. The man stumbled and fell, und Winton turned and ran like the wind, making for one of the dark alleys thut led out to tire road. As he run he heard the crack of revolver shots behind him. followed by the police whistle; and cries for help. The man had picket! up Ned Burns’ revolver and fired, but the bullets did not go anywhere near Winton, and the policeman's act in tiring, and his delaying the pursuit to summon assistance* gave the fugitive time to dart out of sight around the corner. Winton had been something of a sprinter at- college. He knew he could probably outdistance the best of the police force. But he heard answering whistles before him and shouting. He inferred that he was running toward the police station. He saw another alley mouth opea beside an empty peddler's wagon, and darted down. The street was empty, but the moon now rode high' in the sky, lighting up the town more brightly than an installation of electric lights might have done. Winton bad battled his pursuers for the moment, but they were all about j him; tire trap bad been well set. and in fact pairs of police had been sta- | tioned at the ends of all the streets I leading into the desert. He was like ‘ a trapped rat. rushing blindly from I alley to «Jley. and. what was worst, ! the foreign population of the district ' was waking from the early sleep lnidueed by its activities of tire day. As n ran an Indian fired deliberately lat him from a window. The wind of I the bullet whistled upon his neck. And the shouts were growing louder on all : sides. Winton was reeling from weakness as ire rsu. He had not realized how strong an effort he had made to pull I himself together after the two stunning blows. Something was dripping into bis eyes; he put hts hand up and was amazed to find it covered with i blood. At last ire halted, breathless- He ! was in an alley blocked now at the end behind him by bis pursuers. They bad not seen him as he ran in the shadow of scene booths, but the yells •of the Indians apprised Winton that his course was accurately known. Before him a street ran at right angles, and somewhere in rids another group was racing to cut him off. He looked up in despair, and then I discovered that he had run round the i circumference of a large circle, in front of hlin was the square which be had passed Immediately before the attack on him. He was approaching from the third side of it, and his only chance of escape lay into tire desert, bright as day under the hard moonlight “I am the president of the Big Malopo company."
