He follows the dog to a gambling house and meets the animal's mistress coming out with a large amount of money. She Is beautiful and in dis tress and he follows' her. After protecting her from two assailants he takes her in charge, and puts her in his own rooms for the rest of the night. He returns a little later tQ find a murdered man in his rooms and Jacqueline dazed, with her memory gone. He decides to protect Jacqueline, gets rid of the body and prepares to take her to Quebec In a search for her home. Simon Leroux, searching for Jac queline for some unfriendly pur pose, finds them, but Hewlett evades him. Hewlett calls the girl his sister. In Quebec he learns that she is the daughter of a recluse in the wilds, Charles Duchaine. CHAPTER V Continued. I could not but connect him with our presence there. Leroux was due to arrive at any moment. I realized that great issues were at stake, that the man would never cease in his at tempts to get hold of Jacqueline. Only when I had returned her to her fa ther's house would I feel safe from him. After dinner I had some conversa tion with one of the hotel clerks. I discovered that St. Boniface was little known, the only occupants of those parts being trappers and Indians. "You could hire dogs and a' sleigh at St. Boniface for wherever your final destination is," he said, "because the dog mail has been suspended owing to the new government mail boats, and their sleighs are Idle. I think Captain Dubois would take you on his boat as far as that point, and I believe he makes his next trip in a couple of days." He gave me the captain's address, and I resolved to call on him early the following day and make arrangements. I took Jacqueline for a stroll on' the terrace, and while we walked I pon dered over the problem. Jacqueline was very quiet, and I, wondered what she remembered. T dreaded always awakening her memory, lest, with that of her home, came that other of the dead man. Our roomsj were on the side of the Chateau facing the town, and as we passed beneath the arch I saw two men standing no great distance away and watching us it seemed to me. One wore the cassock ,of a priest, and I could have sworn- that he was Pere Antolne ; the other resembled the suspicious stranger. As we drew near they moved behind a pillar. Thus, in exorably, the "chase drew near. My suspicions received confirmation a few minutes later, for we had hardly reached our rooms, and I was, in fact. standing at the door of Jacqueline's, bidding her good night when a bellboy came along the passage and announced that the gentleman whom I was ex pecting was coming up the 'stairs. I said good night to Jacqueline and went into my room and waited. I had thought it would be the stranger but It was the priest. I Invited him to enter and he came In and stood with his fur cap on his head, looking direfully at me. "Well, monsieur, what is the pur pose of this visit?" I asked. "To; tell you," he thundered, "that you must give up the unhappy woman who has accompanied you here." "That is precisely what I intend to do," I answered. , "To me." he .said. "Her husband" X felt my brain whirling. I knew now that I had always cherished a hope, despite the ring what a fool I had been ! "I married them," continued Pere Antolne. "Where is he?" I demanded. He appeared disconcerted. I gath- eredv from his stare that he had sup posed I knew. "This is a Catholic country," he went on more quietly. "There is no divorce; there can be none. Marriage Is a sacrament. Sinning as she is " I placed my hand on his shoulder. "I aill not hear any more," I said. "Go!" I pointed toward the door. "1 am going to take her away with roe, he said, and crossing the thresh old into the corridor placed one hand on the door of Jacqueline's room. 1 got there first. I thrust him vio lently aside it was like pushing a monument turned the key, which happily was still outside, and put it in my pocket. "I am ready to deal with her hus band," I said. ."I am not ready to deal with you. T,eave at xonce or I will have you arrested, priest or no priest. How do I know she has a hus band? How do I know you are not in league with her persecutors? How do I know you are a priest at all?" He seemed amazed at the, violence of my manner. "This is the first time my priesthood has been denied," he said quietly. "Well, I have offered you your chance. cannot use violence. If you refuse you will bring your own punishment upon your head, and hers on that of the unhappy woman whom you have Wed into sin." "Go!" I shouted, pointlngi down the passage. He turned and went, his soutane sweeping against the door of Jacque line's room as he went by. I unlocked the door of Jacqueline's room. I saw her standing at tne toot of the bed. Her face was white. As I entered she looked up plteously at me. "Who was that?" she asked in a frightened whisper. An impudent fellow that Is all, Japqueline." By VICTOR ROUSSEAU Copyright, W. O. Chapman "I thought I knew his voice," she answered slowly. "It made me almost remember. And I do not want to remember, Paul She put her arms about my neck and cried. I tried to comfort her, but it was a long time before I succeeded, I locked her door on the outside and that night I slept with the key be neath my pillow. CHAPTER VI. At the Foot of the Cliff. The next afternoon I went to Paul street and found M. Dubois at home. When I explained that I wranted to secure two passages to St. Boniface his brows contracted. "Dieu ! So you, too, are going to the Chateau Duchaine I" he exclaimed. "Is there not room for two more on the boat of Captain Duhamel?" "Why do you suppose that I am go ing to the Chateau Duchaine?" I in quired angrily. He flared up too. "Diable !" he burst out, "Do you suppose all Quebec does not know what is in the wind? But since you are so ignorant, monsieur, I will enlighten you. Let us suppose that the affairs of M. Charles Du chaine have interested a gentleman of business and politics whom we will call M. Leroux just for the sake of giving him a name, you understand," he resumed, looking at me maliciously. "And this M, Leroux imagines that there is more than spruce timber to be found on the seigniory. Bien, but con sider further that this M. Leroux is a mole, as we 'call our politicians here. It would not suit him to appear openly in. such an enterprise? Let us say, then, that he arranges with a Captain Duhamel to convey his party to St. Boniface, to which point he will go secretly by another route, and that he. will join them there and in short, monsieur, take yourself and your friend to the devil, for I won't give you passage. Go back to him for I know he sent you to me and tell him he cannot hire Alfred Dubois for all the money in Canada." I am . glad to hear you say that," I answered, "because Leroux is no friend of mine. Now listen to me, Cap tain Dubois. It is true that I am go ing to the cha'teau, if I can get there, "Who WasThat ?" but I did not know that Leroux had made his arrangements already. In brief, he is in pursuit of me and I have urgent reasons for avoiding him. My companion is a lady " "Eh !" he exclaimed, looking stupidly at me. "And I am anxious to take her to the chateau, where we shall be safe from the man " "A lady!" exclaimed the captain. A young one? Diable! Why didn't you tell me so at first, monsieur? I'll take you. I will do anything for an enemy of Leroux. "But a lady! I do not know your business, monsieur, but I can guess, perhaps " "But you must not misunderstand me," I Interposed. "She is not " "Diable! It's all right!" said the captain, slapping me upon the back. No explanations ! Not a word, I as sure you. I am the most discreet of men. Madeleine !" This last word was a deep-chested bellow, and In response a little girl came running in, staggering under the weight of the captain's overcoat of raccoon fur. "That is my overcoat voice," he ex plained, stroking the child's head. "My niece, monsieur. By the tone in which I call Madeleine knows whether it is my overcoat or my pipe or slippers that I want, or whether I am growing hungry." I thought that the captain's hunger voice must shake the rafters of the old building. "And now, monsieur," he continued seriously, when we had left the house, ,lI am going to tell you as much as T know concerning the plans of that scoundrel. In brief, it is known that a party of his friends has been quar tered for some time at the chateau; they come and go, in fact, and now he is either taking more or the same ones back ajrain, and God knows why he takes them to so desolate a region, unless, as the rumor is, he has, discov ered coal fields upon the seigniory and holds M. Duchaine in hfs power. Well, monsieur, a party sails with Captain Duhamel on tonight's tide, which will carry me down the gulf also. Captain Dulvamel's boat is berthed at the same pier as mine upon the opposite side. "We start together, then, but I shall Dfl Idem R iver expect to gain several hours during the four days' Journey, for I know the Claire well, and she cannot keep pace with my Salnte-VIerge. You must bring your lady aboard the Sainte-VIerge by nine tonight. "I shall telegraph to my friend Dan ton at St. Boniface to have a sleigh and dogs at your disposal when you arrive, and a tent, food and sleeping bags," continued Captain Dubois, "for it must be a hundred and fifty miles from St. Boniface to the Chateau Du chalne. And so, with half a day's start, you will have nothing to fear from Leroux only remember that he has no scruples. Still I do not think he will catch you and Mile. Jacqueline before you reach Chateau Duchaine,' he ended, chuckling at his sagacity. "Ah, well, monsieur, who else could your lady be?" he asked, smiling at my surprise. "I knew well that some day she must leave those wilds. Besides did I not convey her here from St. Boniface on my return, less than a week ago, when she pleaded for se crecy? I suspected something agitat ed her then. So it was to find a hus bant? that she departed thus?" So Jacqueline had left her home not more than a week before! And the captain had no suspicion that she was married then I Yet Pere Antolne claimed to have performed the cere mony. To whom? And where was the man who should have stood "in my place and shielded her against Leroux? I made Dubois understand, not with out difficulty, that we were still un married. His face fell( when he re alized that I was in earnest, but after a little he made the best of the situ ation, though it was evident that some of the glamour was scratched from the romance, in his opinion. By now we had arrived at the wharf. Wedged in among 'the floes lay the Claire and the 'Sainte-Vierge respee tively. The latter vessel lay upon our right as we approached the end of the wharf. There was a small cabin for Jacque line and another for myself adjoining. I was very well satisfied and Inquired the . terms. "Diable ! If it were not for the chil dren there should be no terms 1" ex claimed the captain. "But it is hard. monsieur, with prices rising and the hungry mouths always open, like little birds." He was overjoyed at the sight of the fifty dollars which I tendered him. "By the way," I said, "do you know a priest named Pere Antolne?" , "An old man? A strong old man? Why, assuredly, monsieur," answered the captain. "Everybody knows him He has the parish of the Riviere d'Or district, and the largest in Quebec. A saint, monsieur! You will do well to make his acquaintance." The captain parted from me on the wharf on his way to the telegraph office, repeating his instructions to the effect that we were to be aboard the boat by nine. It had grown dark long before and looking at my watch, I was surprised to see that it was already past six o'clock. I had no time to lose in re turning to the Chateau. But though I could see It outlined upon the cliff I soon found myself lost among the maze of narrow streets in which I was "wandering. A man was coming up the street behind me, and I turned to question him, but as I de creased my pace he diminished his also, and when I quickened mine he went faster as well. I began to have an uneasy sense that he might be fol lowing me, and accordingly hastened onward until, I came to a road which seemed to lead up the hill toward the ramparts. Hewlett is waylaid and knocked out, but escapes to rejoin Jacqueline. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Sad Fate of Chinese Widows, Very few Chinese widows ever re marry. As a rule, customs of society do not go further, but in some parts of Fukien the self-destruction of widows in their devotion to their dead hus bands has assumed almost barbarous forms. For example, when a man dies his wife will generally declare her In tention to kill herself to demonstrate her faithfulness toward him. Then the elders of the family will cause a high stage to be erected and Invite their relatives, friends and acquaint ances to witness the heroic deed. When the appointed hour has come and the spectators have assembled, the lady will ascend the stage to haDg herself amid the admiration and ap probation of the spectators. Then a stone arch will be erected to her mem ory, and the family will be regarded as illustrious for possessing such a de voted wife. Origin of Number Symbols. The origin of our common number symbols has never been clearly es tablished, but until recently all writers agree that these symbols were trans mitted to Europe -by the Arabs, who had obtained them from India. It is very interesting to note that available data relating to the origin of our com mon number symbols have been care fully re-examined by Carra de Vaux. Among the most surprising results are the following: Our common number symbols originated in Europe and from there were transmitted to the Persians. Both India and Arabia received them from Persia, so that the common term Hindu-Arabic numerals is decidedly misleading. The common numerals did not come from letters of the alphabet, but were formed directly for the pur pose of representing numbers. THINK DOCTOR IS MISTREATING BOY Physician, on Errand of Mercy, Is Beaten by Angry Italian Women. MOTHER GRABS CLUB Beats Doctor Who Is Trying to Give Sick Lad Pills Neighbors Take Hand in the Proceedings Rescued by Autoist. Chicago While on an errand of mercy in the Italian district, Dr. James E. Smedley, a well-known north side physician and volunteer Red!

One day recently he received an emergency call to 1212 Vine street, Where Tony, the little son of Mrs. Mary Caninino, was ill. It looked like diphtheria. The doctor toOk the boy on his knee and pinched his cheek. Then he tried to slip some pills into the lad's mouth, but bis patient became rebellious. "Come, now, be a good boy," urged the doctor. "They'll make you feel better." Tony still refused. Then the physician resorted to the customary expedient of holding the boy's nose, thus forcing him to open his mouth and swallow the pellets. Mother Clubs Doctor. The mother, who had been friendly. suddenly became infuriated. She Struck Doctor Smedley on the Head. screamed, seized a club and struck Dr. Smedley on the head. He fell to the floor stunned. Again 'and again the heavy club de scended. Her screams brought sev eral women to the house. They took a hand 'at the clubbing. Then they locked him in the house and left, pre sumably to seek some of the male neighbors to wreak further vengeance. The physician, bleeding profusely from the nose and from deep scalp lacerations, finally broke a window and hailed a passing autoist, who helped him out and took him home. "The woman simply didn't under stand, that was all," said Dr. Smed ley. "She thought I was trying to hurt the boy."
