He rushes to the scenes, snd proves able to rescue the ladies. Intlamed by the failure of his scheme, Leonardo sees Margharita who shows him she knows that he was instigator of the attempted at- tack, The Englishman now sees Adrienne often. The Englishman, sitting in the hotel, finds a dagger at his feet. Looking up, he sees the Sicilian, and scents trouble. "We sat here a week ago," recalls Leonardo. Lord St. Maurice nods. Leonardo and the Englishman quarrel, The Englishman at first refused to accept a challenge to duel, then when the Italian slaps him consents, The two men face ach other ready to tight to the death. Margharita stops the duel by coming just in the nick of time "to save the Englishman from his tate, with two officers who arrest the exile Leonardo. Leonardo vows vengeance.

Maeeharita looked like 8 beau- ful wild animal in her passion. Her hair had fallen all over her tack, and was streaming down her bask. Wér small white hand was vienched and upraised, and her wraight, supple figure, panther-like in ite grace, was distended until the towered ever the little shrunk- yn forta befor. her. Terrible was the gleam in her eyes, and terrible he fixed rigidity of her features. Vet she was as beautiful as a poung godless in hér wrath. "No!" she cried fiercely, "the Drder shall not die! You belong io it still; and I--1I, too, swear the vath of vengeancé! 'Togethér we will hunt her down--this woman! Jie shall suffer." . "She shall die!" he cried. " A slight shudder passed across lhe girl's face, but she répeated his words. "She shall die! ard ill, What is it?" "She chaféd his hands and held him up. He had fainted. "Wh am I, Marghatita?" She leaned over him, and drew 2 long deep breath of relief. It was the reward of many weary days and nights of constant watching and patdful nursing, His reason was saved. ' " "In your own room at the hotel," she whispered. "Don't you remem- . por? You were taken ill." He looked at her, helpless and pusgled. Slowly the mists began to roll away. "Yep, vou were with me," murmured softly. "I remember now. I was telling you the story of the past--my past. Tou are But, unels, you Margharita's child. Yes, I remem- |. ber. Was it thig afternoon?" She kissed his forehead, and then dréw back suddenly, lest the warm tear which was quivering on her spelid should fall pack upon his ce. Het was three weeks ago!" "Three weeks ago!" he looked Nonderiagly around.-at the little table at his side, wheres a huge "howl of sweet-scénted roses was surrounded dy a little army of mpty medicine bottles, at Mar- harita's pale, 'wan face, and ate couch drawn up to the bedside. "And you have been nurking me all the time?" he whispered. She smiled brightly througn the tears whieh she could not hide. "Ot courses I have. Who has & better right, I should like to did Wo sighed and closed his eves. In a few minutes he was asleep. r § fortnight his life had hung upon a thread, and even when the doctor had declared him out of danger, the question of his sanity of insanity quiteréd upon the bal- aumce for anotfir week. He would either awake perfectly reasonable, in all respects his old self, or he would open Bis eyés upon a world, the kéynete to which he had lost forever. In othér words he would #ithér awake a perfectly sane man, or hopelessly 4nd incurdbly in- sane. There would be 16 middle ' course. That was the doster's ver- diet. ; Fa Ard thro all those long days ad aights Margherita had watch- over Bim qs though Be dad been Her owa father. All the passionate srMPAthy of her warm southers | he |. nature had béen kindled by the jstory of his wrongs. Day by day the sight of his helpless suffering had increased her indignation to- ward those whom she really be- lieved to have bitterly wronged him, Through those long quiet days and silent nights, brooded upon 'them, She never for one moment repented of having all- fed herself te that wild oath of vengeance, whose echoes often at dead of night seemed still to ring in her ears. Her only fear was that he would emerge from the fierce illness under which he was laboring, so weakened and shaken, that the desire of his life should have passed from him." She had grown to love this shrunken old man. In her girlhood she had heard stories of him from her nurse. and many times the hot tears had stood in her eyes as she conjured up to herself that pathetic figure, waiting and waiting, year by year, for that liberty which was to come only with.old age. She had thought of him, sad-eyed and weary, pacing his lonely prison cell, and ever watching through his barred win- dow the little segment of blue sky and sunlight which penetrated in- to the high-walled court, How he must long for the scent of flowers, the fresh open air, the rustle of leaves, and the hum of moving insects, How his heart must ache for the sound of men's voices, the touch of their hands, some sénse of loving or friendly companionship to break the icy monotony of his weary, stagnant existence. Her imagination had been touched, and she had been all ready to wel- come and to Jove him as a hero and a martyr, even if he had appealed te her in no other way. But when she had seen him stricken down and helpless, with that look of in- effable sadness in his soft dark eyes, it was more than her sym- pathy which was aroused, more than her imagination which was stirred. Her large pitying heart became his absolutely. She was alone in the world, and she must needs love some one. For good or for evil, fate had brought this strange old man to her, and woven this tie between them. He héld out his hands; grasped them fondly. "Margharita, she came pere!" he whispered, "What, here? this room?" He nodded. ' "It was two days before you came. T wag sitting alone in the twilight. - The door opened. I thought T was dreaming. It was she, as beautiful as ever, richly dressed, happy, comely, She came to pity, to sue for pardon. I let her talk, and then, when I had gathered strength, I stood up and cursed her. I thrust her away; T cursed her with the fiercest and cruelest words which my lips could utter. It drove the warm color from her cheeks. and the light from her eyvés, T cursed her till her heart shook with fear. She staggered out of the room a strick- en woman. " "Tell mé her name." "It was Adrienne Cartueeio, is now Lady Mauriee." "The Lady Et. Maurice! my tothér"s friend thén?" "Yes." Marghatrita's eves were bright, and her voice trembled. "Listén!"' ghe cried, "When my mother was dying she gave me a letter. If ever you need a friend or she Here In , peal It She was St. Maurice, She will help you for my sake. Un- cle, fate is on our side. Just before T came to you I wrote to Lady §&t. Maurice. I told here that I was un- happy in my life, and I wished for a situation ag a governess, I sent her my mother's letter." "And she replied?" Yes. She offered me a home, 1? I wished I could teach her little girl" Her voice was trembling, and her eyes, dry and brilliant, were fixed upon his. He was sitting up- right in ped, leaning a little for. ward toward her, and the sun. beam which had stolen in through the parted curtains fell upon his white corpse-like face, A strange look was in his eyes; his fidgers clutched the bedclothes nervously. "You will--go?" he asked hoaw sely. "You will go to Lady &t. Maurice?" An answering light ehot back from her eyes. She was suddenly pale 'to the lips. Her voles wae hushed as though in fear, put it was firm. "Yes, I shall go. Tonight I shall accept her offer." PART III "Mother, don't you think tha Miss Brisco: Is a very strange girl?" . Lady St. Maurice looked up from her work quickly. Nine o'. clock was just striking, and her son only a moment before had re placed his watch in his pocket with an impatiént little gesture. "Yes, I do think se," she answ- ered quietly. "I think her very strange 'ndeed. Why do you ask me?" e shrugged his shoulders. "Oh, I don't know exactly. It seémse odd that she should want to spend all her evening aléne, and that she should have so many long letters to write.

She would have been very wélcome to a home with us. It was only her pride which made her insist upon coming as Gracle's governess, and I suppose it ig the same feéling which prompts her to keep herself so much aloof from us. I am sorry, but I can do no more than I have done toward making her see things differently." Lord Lumley fidgeteg about for a minute or two on the hearthrug. Thére was a cértain réserve in his mother's mannér which made the task whieh he had set himself more difficult even than it would have béen under ordinary circumstances. Besides, he felt that from her low seat she was watching him in. tently, and the knowledge did not tend toward setting him more at Bis ease. "You loved her mother, then?" "1 did. She was my dearest friend." "And yet--forgive me if I am wrong--but sometimes I fancy that you do not evén like Miss Briscoe." "She will not let me like or dis. like her, Lumley." He shook his head. "It isn't that exactly. I have seen you watching hér sometimes --a8 for instance when she sang that Sicilian song here--as though vou were--well, almost afrald of her; ag though there was some- thing about her which almost re- pelled you." The Countess lald down her work, and looked steadfastly into the fire, 'There was a moment's silence. "You have been a close watch- er, Lumley." "1 admit it. But, tell me, have I not watched to some purpose? Thére is no mistaking the look in your face sometimes, when she comes into the room unexpactedly. It the thing were not absurd, I thould say that you were afrald of her." Lady St. Maurice held her hand to her side fér a moment, as though she felt a sudden pain. She repeateq her son's words without looking up at him. "Afraid of her! No, no, Lumley. 1 am afraid of something else, something of which her face con- tinually reminds me. It is the shadow of the past which Seew. to follow her footstéps." A tragic note had suddenly been struck in the conversation between mother and son. Lord Lumley, who had been altogether unprepar- od for it, was full of interest. "The past!" he repeated. "Whose past? 'Tell me all about fit mother." She looked up at him, and he saw that her face was unusually pale. "Lumley, it is only a littls while ago since your father and I told the story of our strange meeting and marriags. You rem- ember it?" : "Every mother!" "You remember the duel which the Count di MaArioni sought to fores upon your father, but which I prevented?

PASSENGER PIGEON NAY BE EXTINCT Even Stuffed Specimens are Now Rare and Most Valuable Vw Ji Vietoria, B.C. July 29--The passengér pigeon, whose flocks once darkened the skies of the con- tinent within the memory of many inhabitants still living,'is apparent- ly extinct. Naturalists "have not been able to discover the living specimen for many years. From time to time observation generally discloses a mourning dove, a do- mestic pigeon, or possibly one or the rather scarce band-tailed wild pigeons of the British Columbia coast. ot even one of the numer- ous passenger pigeons once in cap- tivity seems to have left pure-bred offspring. Even stuffed specimens of the passenger pigéon are rare and most valuable.

Power Corporation's chief development now under way is at Bridge River, 135 miles north of Vancouver, where two units to produce 30,000 horsepower each, are being installed, but it is ex- pected the ultimate development here will reach 350,000 horgepow- er, the largest hydro scheme in the west. At the same time this com- pany is carrying on development at Ruskin on the Stave River, to pro- duce 40,000 horsepower and later two additional units of the same size will be installed, making a to- tal of 120,000 horsepower. 300 species of wild pigeons today, notable among which is the wood pigeon of Europe, a large bird fre- quently observed in London parks.' Apparently the only wild pigeon now in Canadas is the band-tailed pigeon occasionally sen west of the' Rockies. It is a bluish, slate col- ored bird. It is said by naturalists that at one time vast flocks of the wild pigeons consisted of more than a billion birds. They were slaugh- tered in the Middle West by the millions in the last.century. One year in the late eighties' the pigeon flocks still swarmed the land. 'I'ne following <vyear they had almost vanished. Despite the slaughter the sudden disappearance of the birds mystified people, who attri- buted it to disease of a storm which, it was claimed swept mil- lions of birds out to sea. In any case what had been the moet nu- merous bird in all the world, which has nested all the way from Moose Factory on James Bay down to the Choctaw country in the south, van- ished, almost at one blow.
