"There la but one- thin? right, now," incwered Father Surtees. "You ought to go nt once to see this Dr. Fleming. I nee by the papers that ho rrlved yestcrdnj", nntl Is nt the Sher man house." There wns n startled stare In tho eyes of the mojor as he rose. "Come with me," he said, huskily; "come with me." "I should like to. I nm -very Impa tient, Rowland, to know the truth on that point. Much depends on it; very muoh." In a moment the priest hnd put on his overcoat nnd hat, nnd the two men were vrnlklng down the avenue to wards the hotel just mentioned. "I shall vutlt down i.ere for jou," mid tho priest, when they had entered Ihe. office of the hotel nnd been told that Dr. Vlemlng wns in. Ooddnrd int up his card, and in a few mo ments he received permission to go up. Ah, Mnj. Goddnrdl" crld Dr. Tlcm ln(c, a tall, henvj-set, full-bearded man, as he came to meet his visitor. "I was hnlf expecting to meet your ivlfc to-dny, but this Is an unexpected turpriso. 1 hope she is not Indisposed." "I think she Is no worse," snld the ranjor, helplessly, as he drew oil his glove. "In fact, she did not know I was coming." "Hut you nre not going to fnncy yourself 111, Mnj. Goudnrd," snld tho physician, lightly. "You are nervous; that's all. I detected that fact when I took jour hand; but otherwise you are as sound us a block of line steel." "It is about Blanche, who is now myvvife.thut I called," snid the major. "You vou knew, I presume, that my first wife" Dr. Fleming saw that Goddnrd was enable to finish his remark. "And I was awfully shocked to hear of the necident, I assure you; nnd I was glad to hear of your recent mar riage. Your wnrd was one of my most interesting patients. You will pardon an old man like me, who is old enough to be her father, when I tnko the liberty of saying she is one of the finest characters I ever met. You know it Is utmost an instinct with my profession to be able to read human nature well. Maj. Qoodard, you are to be envied." "I am sorry," said the major, "that you did not spenk to me of her physi cal condition when she began to take jour treatment; but, of course, you knew best as to the advisability of taking me into your confidence. I may as well tell you inat Mrs. God dard, just before sailing for England, tfl-. "COMB WT1I ME, HE SAID, HUSKILY. confided to me whnt jou hud told her about lllanche's com... ion." Dr. Fleming raised his bushy, hon gray eyebrows inqulrliiglj ; then he (.aid: "I was really somehow under the impression that jou were present, major, when I talked to the ladles at jour house. I am really curious to see your ward again. I'll ventuie she weighs ten pounds more than she did. and has n complexion that couldn't be ?C 1 bought by all the wealth of the earth." "Do you mean that there Is renllj' really hope for her?" gasped the ma jor. "Hope for her? Why, whnt 'do you mean?" "My first wife told me you tald Iilanchc had an absoluttly Incurable disease of the heart, and " "God forbid i Why, there never was a thing the matter with her, except she had some secret grief, or tiouble. You must pardon me If I was obliged to suspect the cause of it, aided us 1 was by a little gotslp I hnd heard. This kept her out of spirits naturally, nnd she needed a change of i-ccnc, but I could not persuade her to 1eoe Lyndhurst. The medicines 1 gnvo her were onlj" tonics. You hnvo given her ull tho medicine she needed, Mnj. God. dnrd. It seems to mo that there wns tome suggestion that jour (list wife was not not exactly tound, mentnlly, when she left jou. Is this true?" "Yes," answered the mnjor, slowlv; "yes!" "Well, surely you ought not to haw let any nbsurd fancy of hers make nn Impulsion on you." (Joddnid rose to his feet. He looked like n man completely dazed, "I liae De.ieTeii her me in oanger ever since," he managed to saj'. "Well, you certainly have nothing to fear on that score," said Dr. Fleming, ns he followed his guest to the door. "It wan not because I wished to see her professionally that I informed her of my return to New York, but be t sh r Tlnd d me of the only child I I ever hnd which I lost live years ago." There wns no ceremony In Goddnrd's lenetnking. lie left the physician staring at him In wonder as he bonded for the stalls lending down into tho ofllcc. Father Surtees emerge from n thiong of men nenr the newspnper rncks nnd came forward In the glnrc of rlectrle lights. "Well?" he Inquires, engerlj-. "You were right," snld Goddnrd. "Thank Godl" ejnculnted the priest, fervently, nnd thej' mnde their way to the street. They vvnlkeu half n block in absolute silence. Goddard's face was full of thoughts too vague for utterance. "There is but one course before you now," counseled Fnther Surtees, as they paused on an isolated street cor ner nnd faced each other. "And thnt is" "To make a elenn breast of It all to Blanche." "If she were dying It might not be so hard," sain Goddard, "but " tears of ngon.v rushed to his eyes; "but to know thnt she"will llc on to loatho me as she would n noisome reptile which had for a moment colled Itself nround her unsuspecting heart. Oh, Godl ndvlse me to kill mjselfl" "You nccr were n eownrd. How land." And lather Surtees laid his hand on Goduaid's nrm with n tender touch, "it Is the consequence of your fault; take it on you like a man. Go to her. Tell her the whole truth." "Thnnk jou," said the major; "I shall do it." Tie wns turning nwnj- when the priest caught Ills arm aguln. "You snj the other Is here in New York?" "I think so," was the answer. "I know jou well enough now," snld the priest, lefieetiTciy, wcil inoiigh to feel sure jou could never Intl in her power again." "If 1 meet her nothing no power in Heaven nor bencnth could prevent mj- killing her." "Nothing but Hlnnchc," snid the priest. "She would prefer to hnve ns little publicity ns possible. No; re straint must be part of your burden. The woman must live." "To assassinate Blanche?' cried the major. "No!" "She will never ao it when she knows thnt jou nnd Hlnnchc are parted. Of course, Illanciie will want to go nwcj- nt once." "Of course" Goddnrd stuggcred nwny. A cab wns passing, and he hnlied It. The cabmnn smiled know ingly on the priest as lie helped his friend to get in. He thought he wns taking up a drunken swell. The priest gave the directions In a cold tone of reproof, and, pressing God dard's hand, he turned awny. "Oh, God, don't desert the poor, poor fellow," he said, with .ils eyes raised to a star which, pnla ns a white din mond, gleamed above th yellow glare of Madison square. CHAPTER XVII. That afternoon Blanche, who re mained at home, had encountered an experience more thrilling than any thing which had ever befallen her. She had tried, after the major had left for the city, to pnss the time away with various amusements. She had poured out her complete happiness xo the sj'mpathetio pages of her diary; she had, when that joy had spent It self, gone to the piano nnd plnyed her gunrdinn's favorite nirs, sung his fa vorite songs, imngining him in his smoking jacket and slippers in his usu al seat on the great leathern lounge. Then n small cloud rose between her nnd the sun of her present hnpplness. It was the memory that such a short time hnd elapsed Blnce nnother hnd occupied her plnce, nnd thnt thought hnd frequently beset her of late, but seldom with such persistency ns now. She tried to fight against Its Influence, to tenr herself from its grasp, but in vnin. One of the most tnntalizing of these thoughts was that Jeanne God dnrd's room still remnlncd just ns the nbscnt woman hnd left It, just ns Blanche vividly remembered it on the night preceding Mrs. Goddurd's de parture. Its door hnd not been opened since its occupant hnd left. Blanche supposed it wns locked, ns she hnd once, In passing, seen the kej' to the door hnnglng on n nnll outside. "Perhnps," thought our poor her oine, "If I could put down mj' objec tions to seeing the room again, nnd go there, I might not think of it so fre quently; and I really must be more generous. But" Blnnche shud dered nB her thoughts ran on un checked, "I cannot bear to think that she once had nil his lovo. She when God hnd mnde us for ench other!" She would not have been the woman she was It these recollections hnd not stung her proud nature to the quick. "I certainly hnve a goou opportunity now," she thought, remembering thnt both the mnlds hnd nsked for a leave of absence that afternoon, nnd through the window she could see J times leaning over the wnll nt the foot of the lawn engnged In deep con verbation with an acquaintance. So the outcome of her mental arguments for and against this step was that she bruvelj' ascended tho stairs, went along tho fern-aecornted corridor to the door of the room which hnd haunt ed her so much of late. To her sur prise she missed tho key from the nail where It usually hung. Then she no ticed it in tho lock, nnd thnt tho door wns slightly njnr. Thinking fills was perhaps due to the negligence of the servants, thq young wife entered nnd stood In the center of the room n tnr get for shnrp memories which were shooting Into her henrt from several objects in tho boudoir .Tennue's couch nnd chnlr, the dlvnn where she hnd once seen her husband with his arm around his wife. Blanche's face was set with keenest suffering ns she turned her buck on the cnnopled bed with Its Ince coverings, rich tnpestrlcH nnd down-filled pillows She was wondering If, nftrr nil, the visit wns going to be productive of good when she heard n slight rapping poise about Mrs. Goddnid's escritoire, which wns hidden from her view by n tn 11 screen of painted silk In a frame of mahog any. Hlnnche advanced nnd looked over It. To her horror she saw a ninn trying to fit a key Into the lock of the desk. Happening to glance upward at that Instant his stnrtled eyes met hers. Hlnnchc uttered n screnm of fright and shrank bnck. "For God's sake, don't! I am not n thief, miss;" exclnlmed the man, ris ing head and shoulders above the screen, the key falling from his hands. Hlnnche paused. The thought that she was alone with nlm In the great house showed her the futility oi flight, but It wns the earnestness of his dec laration of innocence which detained her. Besides, now that she hnd the mnn fully In view, there wns some thing in the regretful expression of his rnther snd face which Inspired con fidence. He was well dressed, his hnlr and short beard were white ns snow though his fnce did not bear testi mony to more than St) jears of age. "I I " began Hlnnche, but she wns unable to Bteadj- her voice. "I know ni,I,cnrnnces nl c dead ngninst me," said the intruder, "but I hope jou won't judge me too harsh ly. I nm a sort of detective engaged in ferreting out a case touching me personally." Blanche stood, her hand on the door, still ngitatcd. "Were you ndmlttcd by bj the Bervant?" she nsked. "I must confess thnt I avoided him," answered the Intruder. "If you will let me pnss you, I will go downstairs; but I want to explnin. I cannot have you think" "I don't think I nm nfrnld of you," said Blanche, strangely calmed by his manner and tone of voice. "I know thnt detectives sometimes resort to bold methods." "But I nm hot n professional detec tive," said the man, ns he picked up his lint, which had fallen to the floor. "As I snld, I nm seeking Information thnt concerns me nlone. If jou wish you mny cnll j'our manservnnt, nnd he may be nenr while I try to explnin ray prcsenco here. You have n perfect right to hnnd me over to the police, and If you nre generous enough to let me go, I should want to repay you by perfect frankness on my pnrt. Be sides, If I nm right in my suspicions, I have a most Important revelation to make to the owner of this house." "You interest me in spite of my self," said Hlnnche. "But perhaps we ought to go down to the drawing room." "You nre quite right," acquiesced the stranger, nnd, with a deferential bow, he passed Blanche on the thresh old of the chamber and descended the talrs. Of his own aocord he turned into the drawing-room. Our heroine followed and paused near the door way. She felt perfectly secure, with out knowing why. "Will you pardon me if I ask who you are?" he said, with an apologetic inflection of voice. "Are you related to Maj. Goddard?" "I am his wlfo " said Blanche, sim ply. "What? Oh, no! Surely not!" "I hnvo not misinformed you," said Blanche. His face had fallen. "Then I hnve mnde an awful mls tnke," he snld, "nnd I owe you nnd the mnjor n thousand npologles. 1 hope you will pnrdon me. I hnve been following a false clew, and yet " He seemed to hnve his first opinion forti fied bj memory, "and yet 1 can't see how I cnn be off the track so badly. It would undo me entirely. Surely you did not have n millinerj- estab lishment on Fifth nvenue up to the time of j-our marriage. ' "No," snid Hlnnche, with n stnrt; "perhnps you nre thinking of Mnj. Goddnrd's llrst wife.' "Has he been mnrrled twice?" cried the stranger. "Why, only two months ngo " "Mrs. Goddnrd filed or wns drowned nbout two months ngo." "My Godl" he shrank bnck ns If she hnd struck him In the face. "Dend? Is sho dcaur ' "Yes, she Is dend." "When how oh, my Godl Was her wns she cnlled Jeanne?" "Yes; thnt wns her name." For n moment he stared. Ills color had gone, nnd he looked as if he were about to fall. "Plense plense explain." Blanche complied with his request in a few words "Then I have been hunting down a dead woman. May God hnve mercj on me." "Wub sne a a relative of" began Blanche. "She was my wife." "Your wife!" "YeB; the most misguided womnn on earth. My name Is Dugnale Henry Dugdnle. She wns nh I ever hnd, and she deserted me." He sat down and covered his face with hlMhnnds. Hlnnche softly closed the door and took n sent opposite him. "I see I begin to comprehend," she said, in n gentle, tentative voice. Dngdale looked up. Tho Impress of his fingers was on his face. ''Do you know anything of her past?" ho questioned. "Not a thing; she kept it even from her from Mnj, Goddard. I think she refused, for some reason, to reveal her past life to him." "When I met her," oegnn the stranger, with a sigh, "sho wns the most beautiful woman that I hnd ever seen. It wns In Denver, where we both lived. She was the daughter of a French dancing master, She was courted by every man who met her. She could have married wealth with out rtmlt, but she loved me. She left proofs that she loved me when she ran nwny, leaving our child in n con vent. 1 wns away at the time. I met with misfortune. She wns ambi tious she had alvvnjs wanted to lend society; her mother before her had been that way. She left me when I went awny to the Cnllfornla gold fields. She hnd no fnlth in my ven ture; but I succeeded. It is n wenk thing to confess, but I wns scnrchln'g for her to take the poor womnn bnck to our child nnd my home. But I a in too late, you see; too Intel" "Then," said Blnnche, "I nm the only legnl wife my husband has ever had. Thnt Is true, is it not?" "Yes, you nre Tight; nnd I suppose it Is only nnturnl for you to wnnt it so. You hnve been very good to trust me to listen to me, under the circum stances. I had better go. I think I can get out of the grounds through the wood in the renr without attract ing the notice of your footmnn." "Would you like to meet Mnj. God dard?" ventured Blanche. "No; I don't leel cqunl to it." "Would you enre If I told him whnt you hnve told me' she nsked. "No; ho ought to know the truth. I nm really glad her death did not that ho hns jou to " He checked himself. In justice to herself ninnche would have liked to explain even to him that she hnd possessed the mnjor's love before his meeting with .jennne, but she refrained from this confidentlnl disclosure. She saw Dugdnle turn round the house cross the garden in tho rear, nnd dlsnppcar in tho wood behind the house. CHAI'THK XVIII. Wbcn the major reached Lyndhurst that evening it wns six o'clock. Tnllcy met him nt the steps of the veranda. "Well," said the joung man buoj--nntlj-, the semidarkness preventing htm from observing the disturbed countenance of his employer; "well, mnjor, have jou tccn tho market re ports?" "No; I haven't had time to-day; I I where is myvvl Where Is Blanche?" The j-oung mnn beamed nnd rubbed his hnnds together. "Then jou don't know thnt the 0. N. & W. hns taken n jump nnd Is now actuallj worth two for one?" "Is that o? Where did jou say she was?" looking up towards the un llghted window of Blanche's room. "I nm nfrnld jou don't rcnl!7e that you have nintle n fortune out of this deal, mnjor," snld Tnllej', crestfnllen. "Oh, jes; I am glnd, of course," snld Goddnrd, nbscntly. "But, impntlcnt ly, "I wnnt to see Blanche at oncel" "She wns wnlklng in the gnrden on the other side of the house a few min utes ngo," answered the private secre tary. "I beg j'our pardon; I was so glad to be nble to bring you good news, I wanted to ask If you would advise selling now. The prospect is glorious for an additional rise. The stock is on a boom. Even my little investment has turned out more money than I ever hoped to " Hut the major was not listening. He turned his tortured face away, and wns striding through the dusk to wards the gnrden in the rear. Near the old granite fountain in the center of the garden he saw a toll, darkly clad figure moving slowly to and fro. It was the object of his quest. Her head wns bnre, but she wore a fur enpe, the high collnr of which encom pnsscdi her head except a triangular opening where her sweet face ap peared. "Oh, it is you," she cried, his hur ried step causing her to turn sudden ly, nnd she moved towards him quickly, her gloved hands out stretched. "I have something very Important to tell you. I started to drive to the station to meet you." "I hnve something to say first," he said, taking her hands. "Whnt is It? What is the matter?' She had noticed tl.e ttrident quality in his voice. He relcasedi her hands, his action born in the sudden realization ot Ms unworthiness to trcnt her with fnmll Inritj. He glnnced over his shoulder at thehouse, ns if fenrlng interruption. "Let's walk down towards the wood," he said, "I have nn nwful con fession to make. When j-ou have henrd it you will despise me. You will wish you had never seen me. You will think me a devil incarnate." As Blnnche moved on bj' his side she had n suffocating sensation in her throat, and she unbuttoned her cape and threw it further back on her shoulders. She saw something of vast import had happened; she knew that by the awful alteration in his face and manner. He bore every evidence of being utterly crushed. "Mr. Talley said he had gone into speculation," was her first thought, "and he has lost my fortune." "Nothing you can confess could make .mo love you one jot less, my dear husband," she managed to say. "You have mnde me so happy that I would thank God for you if I were a beggar." CONTJNUKl) "I had a running soroon my leg for soven years," writes Mrs. Jus, Forest of Chippewa Falls, Wis., "ami spent hundreds of dollars in trying to get It healed. Two boxes of 13ANNUK Salvu ontlroly cured It." No other salvo so healing. Campbell & Burroll. A book of the writings of John J. Ingalls is to to bu Issued within sixty days. Eugene J.
