CHAPTER VL i T1IK MKT CHANCE. ' "A perwui, niw, wants to see jron." 'Who 1 it. Esther." "A Snlvntinn Army pemon, miss. Ho won't irive hi name or bis Imsinpss. " "Well, I don't supporw bo wants to lill me. Li t liim come in." It was thn yiar and more since Mitrgan-t liwl wtii hvr lover. You have Jicorrl whut hupiM-iicd to him daring those yi'arx. Slio bad read in the papers some of thosn things Nothing had harr ned to her. hhn still lived in bcr flat ami slio wm still single. r'he looked np when her visitor en trrrd and started. "Yon, Funll I expect ed yon tieforn this. I saw by tho papers that yon bad Joined the Salvation Army. I thought yon would coino to tell me something about yournelf as soon as yon had anything to tell that was tiot digracefnL" Paul ntnnd bnmbly, perhaps too hum bly, banging bis head, perhaps too low. I rmne to tell you, Margaret, that I ham ft mint and proved tho reality of worrl. "If that U true, it is tho happiest thing that was i vrr granted to yon." "I know now what is meant by the words which I formerly used withoat meaning. I do not excuse myself, Mar garet; Lnt remember that I "used those words twice a day for years and years, and that they became like my surplice, something that con Id be taken off or put cm at pleasure pnrt of tho ceremony. They lout their meaning to mo, Mar garet. I have waited till 1 conld come and tell yon this truthfully. I remember certain words yon used when I was here lat, the day after that unlm-ky cathe dral tmsinca." Margaret was sitting at her writing table. Paul stood at the door, f he walled to the other side of the table and stood there, so that it stood between them. Thns firtifled she made answer: "What I said three years ago was paid ton yonng man who had committed great sins, bnt was not past hope. That man has changed for the worse and for tho worst, Yonr record was bad even then. It is now unspeakable. You now say, however, that yon have repented; that yon have found the meaning of certain words. t far it is good, w hat lniul you come here!" "I thought you would have welcomed repentant sinner. " "No. I do not welcome you. I am glsil to think that you are, as you say, a penitent. But the time lias passed when I could welcome you. On tho con trary I look upon yon I think of you with shame because I could at one time love such a man. I made an idol a creature of fancy that had no existence- end I clothed it with your form. I gave It yonr eyes. I loved that idol not yon. Oh! I never loved you. It was an. other creature who was expelled from the cathedral not my tdoL It was mv idol who kiwcA me not you. No never you. I now understand what you were always a man without heart, without morals, without truth, without honor. without a soul. You have rained my life. If an honorable man were to love me I could not give him the lips that have been kissed by such as you. I could not give him the hand that was prom ised to snch a man as you. " "I am sorry. Margaret." be said. "I did not expect to find love left, but I hoped to find some interest at leat some little kindness." I have told yon how I now regard Toa Have you anything more to say?" "If I may be allowed to stay long vnongh to say it." "Pay it. then." "You speak of my past history. Well, it is, I acknowledge, a most disgraceful history. Nothing can be aaid about it ftiat is too bad for it. Bet it is past and (rone. It is quite gone. " He opened his arms to show that it was really gone into the ewigkeit. " I have no past. I have mw only a present and a future." "Alas! The world will soon show you that your pnt exists as much as your present. I'anl. a man can no more rid himself of bis paxt I if . than be can rid himself of bis shadow. It is alwaTs With bim." "Not with me. I have 0me with my past. 1 have the prrsnt, whih is not 4igracef uL and the future, which, Mar AUTHOR garet, with year help shall be Honor able." "With my help?" "If you will listen for one moment, Margaret. 1 have recovered my old pow ers aud more ten times more. I can make them cry. I ain ten times more eloquent than ever I was before. " Fbc looked at Lira sharply. She rec ognized the voice of the old Adam. "But I have to wear this uniform, aa you see a hideous thing. And my com panions are common, horribly common, ami nurnltivatttl. And the cotnrmra- tions! They are of. the lowest kind. And there have been rows aud misun derstandings. They talk of reducing me to the rants. 1 yearn to join my own class again. I want to use my own lit urgy and to preach in a church. " Will any bishop allow you to do so?" ' 'Not in England. I have thonsht tlint perhaps in America" "Will any bishop give you what is it called a letter or testimonial of good conduct?" "I think I can do without such a testimonial. I would go over to America and get known to some of tho Episcopal cli rjry there. I should, of course, tell such parts of my life as should be known" "In other words, Panl, you would begin your new career with a chain of lies." "No no do not misrepresent me pray do not I would confess the sinful life. I wonld only suppress one or two of the detaiU" "Yon would suppress, for instance, the prisun. " "Perhaps I wonld rather do so, in fact, if my my conscience approved. " He lifted his head qnite proudly, just to emphasize the fact thut he possessed lit least a conscience. "And the business of the cathedral? Yon wonld conceal flint too?" "Oh, of course, that would be indis pensable." Margaret langhed scornfully. "Yon are, indeed, a tx-nitont. But, of course, you would be found ont." "I thought it would be better to change my name. I would take my old nam". I wonld return perhaps to plain Samnel Canning or, I thought, Cyril Canning Cyril is a sweetlv religious name. And when I had been long enough to show my devotion to good works and my faith words being now real to me, Margaret "Yes." she said doubtfully. "Then I would ask and receive, once more, deacon's orders to be followed in the nsual way by Margaret, I am at last in earnest. I see before mo a noble career. I see an eloquent priest leading t bousonds ni.warrf. He becomes a bishop an nrchhi.shop; be lives a saintly life; he cues a saint confessed." Yon would cuter upon that life with deception. You would conceal yonr deacon's orders and take them anew. This seems to me a most uwfnl wicked ness. Oh, Paul, can a saintly lifo rest on such a basis? Believe me. the only saintly life for you is one of obscurity. If you are real in repentance, seek out some post where you may do humble and useful work and accept it as your punishment and your reparation. Yon are thinking, not of the saintly life, but of tlie glory of the saintly life. While you wonld load yonr thousands upwaid you would lie gazing in the glass all the time and thinking what a lovely saint you looked." "Is that all yon believe of me?" "That is indeed all I can believe of you. Why, every word you say show s that you huve not tho first element of penitence. You have no shame. While you boast that you are a changed man, you are contriving new deceptions. Go. And never come to see me again. " "Margaret, help me to escape." His faco changed ; ho becamo a real sup' pliant instead of a sham penitent. 'Help me, I say. I bate m v life. These people fill me with loathing; their pre tenses have nothing to help them ofl tho living is rough ; there is even priva tion; there are no luxuries, not even the commonest. And there are already rows and accnsatioiiii. I can't stand it. There will be another scandal. Who knows what may happen? Hrfp me to get away. In a new country I can find work of some kind or other. Here everything is closed to me except" lie shuddered the barracks of the Salvation Army. Help me. Margaret, for the sake of that shattered idol. You were alwavs a thousand tunes too piod f,,r 1UP. I con fess that I was afraid i f marrying yon. i knew you would timl me out But help me just tMvause yon aid once be lieve me. liive me help, for the sake of that time, to escape from this den of despair and hypocrisy. Give ine money so that I may go away, to America, or to Australia, or somewhere. Give me enongh for a start. I w ant clothes, I uii iwsagc money, i want money to " upon w niie i am looking about me. I will mock you with no promises i may go to the devil or I may go up hill luMcau oi oown l oon t know. Everr. thing is uncertain except that I roast go away from here lest a worse thing hap pens to nie." He spoke for oticewith the earnest ness of reality. What had he done in IIk :;lvnii.m Army? What new scan - WU what rows were tko of wbieh he spoke? Margaret was a woman. She gave w ay. Mie opened dk; she haded her face to hide the tears in her eyes; she drew out her checkbook, and he wrote him a check for 100 to the erdrr cf Sr.nsurl CSrrtrg. She tc!d it out without raising hrr head. He took it he gasped he opened his mouth to speak he spoke one or two broken v.xrds. fLo motioned, still not looking up, to the c'.rcr. He turned and walked awav. When he was gone and the door was shut beh.'ud him nd his footstep vras no longer heard open the stairs, Mar garet sat down to think about him. At any time, when anything, however little or unimportant, reminded her of faul, she sat down to thiuk about hici. She had always in her wind what she calhd the n :il Paul. The man as he might liuve been, the nmn as he was iu- tended to be: his rmotioir.il nature dis ciplined, Ellin his words with the fire of sincerity ; his love cf music making Fpioiimii u:e service of the church; the man mounting upward from the Ioye of all to the veneration of all what in the whole world surpasses the venera tion of groveling mm and creeping women for the saintly life? This was the man she lovrd. As for the other man, he was so like the tn:m she loved iu many little thiugsthnt she was inter ested in him. That was love, she put it. tv lio conld love such a creature so cal lous of such colossal insensibility to shame a man who at the very moment when he was professing the most bitter femorso wo planning new deceptions? iut that man no she loved the other man. Many women, in very sooth, do always love the other man. Three years passed by. Nothing had coino from America concerning Paul. Margaret remained single and she kept in her flat, though she had become reallv rich and might have taken larger aud better rooms. People who expect visits stay iu the sauio place. Margaret ex pected a visitor. . He did not come. And now he never will come. Once fill" r-ceived a letter from him. It cair.e from a town in one of the central states. "Perhaps." it said i the third person, "Miss Chohuley may remember one whom she formerly knew as Paul Lcighan. Perhaps she has quite forgotten him. If the former, she may still be interested to learn that he is flourishing ns much as he had a wish to xpect and more much, very much more. He left bis. native country with the fixed intention .f forgetting the past. He was resolved to consider tho past as closed. He landed in New York with no past only a future. "ill! went inland to one. of those set tled states which no Englishman ever visits. Hcwishid to be free from the chance of recognition, lie chose a city in which there are few or none cf Eng lish extraction, lie grew a beard to cov er and conceal his face. IIo wore spec tacles to conceal his eyes, and he brushed his hair differently. This done. it would take a very sharp detective to recognize him. Ho arrived at this city and sat down. He made the acquaint ance cf an Episcopal clergyman. He was able to state a plain, unvarnished tale of his own record. He became an anient member of the congregation and a teacher et tho Sunday school. In 12 mouths ho was ordained a deacon for the second time, it is true but his past wns buried and gone. A year after he secured priest's orders. He has now a church and a full congregation. Tho service is admirable, tli preacher is eloquent. "My dear Margaret" The letter broke abruptly i:ito the first person aud an appeal to herself. "What more could you wish? What is better for me? I have risen. In the depths I did not feel niv deepness. It wanted the sunshine of prosperity to show the full degradation of that forgotten past. Now I truly know the mcaningisof words. I am hap py. I am leading sonls upward. I am going to nnrry thedanghter of the rich est man in my church a millionaire. She loves, however, the saintly life. When I take her to Europe, I shall bring her to s?e yon if you will let me. loa shall be my cousin. It will help me greatly to lie connected with so good a family as yours. I have, of course, Hf turned nntl irnllxt avny. suppressed much of my record. Since I long sinrc resolved to bury tho past. this matters rothn'C. It ia gone. I am free to imagine a l'tter, a holier, past. And f:r the good of the church aud the spiritual" welfare of my iioek I nm pre pared, to sr.ppress everything. The mo tive, dear Margaret, the end in view, C3 cus-s and allows this otherwise repre hensible deception. Your faithful friend (Ihave again changed my name), ." Hi3 name must not be printed here. because it is now becoming rapidly famous. "You know the meaning of words?' asked Margaret bitterly. "Never. Shame cannot touch you. Exposure cannot change you. Love cannot ctrract you. Wickedness cannot deter you. Nothing can move you nothing nothing, ex cept will it hapiicn a miracle. I wait. She laid down the letter with sigh. "I wait for that miracle. " It was tho last fhe ever saw c f Panl Loighau. About a year afterward she received a letter f.oni the United States. It was addrrs-d in a handwriting which she did not recognize. Sim opened it. Two letters fell out. One was from Paul. It was written from a state prison. l -ll ' mm "I hardly flare address you, ' it Be gan. "You see where I am in what a shameful place. You ask me how I got here. I have had misfortunes. I lost my money. I lost my church. I lost my rich bride. They said things. I lost my character. I had to fly. I could get no work. I was persuaded to join yes, I confess it a gang of swindlers. We were dstected and tried, and I am here for some years. I should not write to you but that I must tell you, friend of my happier days, that I now see and clearly understand the realities cf thing. I have learned at last the mean ings of words which formerly were al ways on my tongne without any mean ing. I have remembered what you told me, that obscurity must henceforth be my life. I accept the lot. Let me, how ever, Btill hope to lead the saintly life. I see mysflf toiling amoug tho roughest ind rudest. They shall learn to love and to revere me. I shall never let them know my story of disgrace, I shall lead, them upward an obscure saint of the people among the people" Here the letter stopped. It was ac companied by another. "Madam" this letter was also writ ten from the state prison and was signed by tho governor "I inclose a letter which Was begun by a prisoner here. bet remain unfinished. He died this morning, in our hospital, f pneumonia. He expressed great peniteuce, and I hope his peniteuce was sincere. His short career in this country was marked by unusual audacity in crime. He was an Episcopal clerpymau of great elo quence, who was detected in some scan dal and had to flv his town. He became a member of a company of swindlers, now broken up, who worked together and organized robbery on a large scale. He was betrayed by the jealousy of a woman. W e have now learned that he had been in one English prison. These facts arc, I dare say, known to you. Perhaps you will communicate the news of his death to any interested in him. I have only to add that the clergyman of the Episcopal church who attended hiin unto the end was deeply moved with the fervor of his prayers and the rapture with which he turned his dying eyes to heaven. I report his very words. as they may be some consolation to his former friends." THE EXD. doffed Oat of m Tile Roll. Mr. Moffat is tho Denver banker who was robbed of st? 1,000 in his private of fice one day at noon. The robber held a revolver in one hand aud a bottlo of nitroglycerin in tho other. He request ed Mr. Moffat to write a check for S21,. 000 under penalty of being shot and of having his bank builamg wrecked by the explosive in the bottle, Mr. Moffat is reputed to be worth as many millions as the number of thousands demanded by the robber. He wrote the check. The robber said he would havo to trouble Mr. Moffat to go with him into the paying teller s cage and produce the cash. He would take $20,000 in large inns and 91,000 m gold. If yon say ono word or indicate by a look or motion that anything is wrong. 1 will shoot you and then blow up the bank. Saying which the robber threw a light overcoat over his arm, conceal ing the revolver ho held in his hand. accompanied the bank president into the teller's cage, received the money and returned with Mr. Moffat to the private office. He then repeated his threat to hill the banker and blow up tho build' ing 11 an alarm should be given before ho (tho robber) was safely outside the bank. He made his escape and has not been captured. The robber's overcoat, revolver ana DOttio were found la a doorway near tho bank building. The revolver was loaded, but a chemical analysis of the contents of the bottle revealed the fact that the fluid was not nitroglycerin, but sweet oiL Pittsburg Dispatch. Be Sat on Bis Trunk. Ex-Governor Brown can speak no lan guage except English, but in his travels abroad has managed to get along quite welL Said he: "I have found that there is but. ono safe rule in traveling abroad. aud that is to imitate the elephant and follow your trunk. In my former travels I made it a point to get my trunk checked through, or registered, as they call it. Then I kept my eye on that trunk. When I saw tho baggageman put my trunk on a car, I at once got into that tram and took a forward seat, where I conld see the baggage car door. Whenever I saw the baggageman take my trunk out of the car I got off. In this way I never made a mistake, though I could not speak the language of the country I was traveling in and had no interpreter. "On one occasion I was at the station in Bern, Switzerland. The station was a union affair, and so many trains were coming and going that I got uneasy for fear that I would get on the wrong train. So I sat on my trunk and waited. While I was sitting there I was ap proached-by a yonng lady, who. like myself, conld speak Knclish onlv. She wanted to know which train to take. told her to do as I was doing sit on her trunk. She did so. I gave the same advice to a man, and both of them went right. It s the only safe rale, for the baggage generally goes right" Balti more American. Ktaral Qoecttoa.

ECONOMY OF SPACE. A Great Power Graerating Stat km Walrti CoTera bat Little Ground. Probably no otlier kinds of power plant3 afford better illustrations of the tendency to concentration than some of the modern splendidly equipped electric stations in largo cities, where ground area has closely approached the maxi mum in value, and in which, therefore, economic considerations have dictated the putting cf as much generating ap paratus into as little space as human ingenuity would permit, with duo re gard to satisfactory performance. la some of these stations vertical engines and boilers in largo units havo been installed to the entire exclusion of hori zontal designs and in others, again, tho saving in ground space thus secured has been still further augmented by setting engines and boilers in tiers, ono above the other, giving a ratio of horsepower per square foot of ground area which a decade ago would havo been thought quite beyond the limits of possibility. In probably no station in the world has this concentration been carried out to greater degree, or to as great a ono even, as iu that of the Edison Electrio Illuminating company iu Duanc street. in the city of New Vork. Tho ground covered by this measures 200 by 74 feet. and within this area provision has been 111 ado for nine 2,500 hosrepower en gines, two of 1,250 h rose power each and three of (i00 horsepower, giving a total of very nearly 2,000 horsepower. with a corresponding boiler plant, or only a little less than two horsepower per square foot. It would seem, indeed. as though economy in space could not well be carried much farther. Cassier 'a Magazine, Ingrowing Hair. The barber was talking.
