CHAPTER V.—(Continued). “Oh, she says ‘do not slay this man in her presence,’ repeated Sosia, with a strange glance toward Helen. “She does not say ‘do not slay him! spare him!’ but only ‘do not slay him in my presence!’ ” “And why should I wish so base and treacherous a wretch to live?” de- manded Helen, with just anger. “May God have mercy on your soul, Zeno Sosia! But the consequences of your foul treachery to me are too threaten- ing to permit me to ask for your life; and you have declared that you hate Clarence Darrell—are his bitter enemy —are engaged in some horrible plot of vengeance against him! Ah, for his sake, if for naught else, I hope the wrath of these two persons, who per- haps are not as base as you are—may end your power to harm Clarence Dar- rell!” So saying, she sank back upon her pillow, overcome by her emotions of horror and despair, unable to say more. “She pleads for my life, gentlemen, though not so intending,” said Sosia, in a whining tone, and rolling his great eyes, with a piteous glare of abject ter- ror, alternately from the father to the son. “If you slay me, good gentlemen, you will slay the enemy of a man who will move heaven and earth to punish you, when he shall learn what you in- tend to do here. I have served you faithfully, gentlemen. I promised that if you would follow my counsel, Helen Beauclair should be placed, as she is, in your power—to be made a wife, or a victim to your desires, it mattered not which to me. My hate of the man who calls himself Clarence Darrell— made me rash and foolish in speech, gentlemen, just now. There lies your desired prey—object of pursuit, I should say, gentlemen. Fear no be- trayal from me, good gentlemen. How could you shoot at so old and feeble a man, Capt. Osred?” “Old.and -feeble!” repeated Capt. Osred, mockingly. “I noticed you, wily hypocrite, as the four men, aided by us, toiled up the steep with the box. No one was ever more agile than were you. But words are vain. We do not trust you. We need not your hate of Clarence Darrell to rid us of him, if ever he and we encounter. We did not intend to take your life when we engaged your services—though we in- tended to make surg of your silence until, and long after, this lady should be my wife; but we fear you now. In your desire to gratify your hate to- ward this Clarence Darrell, and to achieve some scheme of your own, you may reveal that which shall baffle, our plans. I regret that hasty anger caused me to fire at you, but your threat of the hangman enraged me.” “Ah, fool that I was to speak so rashly!” said Sosia. “More fool, simpleton, to imagine that men like us, engaged in such dar- ing work, would not make sure of your silence after your service was done,” said Lord Genlis, coldly and sternly, as he took from a nail in the wall a coil of small rope. For the sake of the lady you shall not die in her presence. He who left the room with the four sailors shall attend to your last mo- ments, after we shall have bound you hand and foot.” “My lord,” remarked Sosia, his hands still in his portmanteau, as he crouched and leaned across the table, as if weak with terror, “take care what you do. Before I left Galway yester- day I gave to a person a sealed packet, which contained a sealed packet of all that has transpired between Lord Gen- lis, Wilford Osred and Zeno Sosia— the packet to be opened if I did not return to claim it within two days. Take care! I shall not die long un- avenged!” “So? Well, your movements in Gal- way were watched,” replied Lord Gen- lis, quietly, as he shook Yoose some tangles in one coil of cord. You were seen to deliver a sealed packet to one of the magistrates of Galway, and in jess than an hour that packet, still with unbroken seal, was in my pos- sesson.” “Ah!” exclimed Sosia—and the word as he uttered it sounded more like a hiss of rage than an ejaculation of ter- ror—while in his mind he said: “I had | a suspicion that a spy was upon my path, and I thought I had evaded his eyes.” “I read and destroyed your state- ment, Sosia, before we gained posses- sion of the box. We suspected you would do something of the kind, even if you did not betray us—sell us out— could you find any one who would pay you more than we had promised to pay you; or had you not designed to obtain much more fro mour fears here- after. We even feared that you might betray our plans to Lady Ida Beau- clair. Why, man, you have acted like a simpleton. Lord de Lavet, and Lady Ida, too, would have paid you more than five thousand pounds yesterday, or at any time since Helen Beauclair fell as if dead, to restore her to life and make her Lady de Lavet.” “Very true, my lord,” replied Sosia, his eyes beginning to glitter with evil passion; “but did you not hear me say that as much as Zeno Sosia loves gold, The Sorcerer - of St. Giles . By PROF. WILLIAM H. PECK. “Ah, you are a spider, full of venom! You hate Lady Ida Beauclair?” “Bitterly.” “And Lord de Lavet?” “I do not like him so much as to desire to see him the husband of this beautiful heiress.” “You were very near seeing him be- come her husband. What if the cour- age, or despair, or whatever prompted Helen Beauclair to swallow the pellet, had failed her before the altar?” “The marriage should not have gone on. I could and would have prevented it. I told you so, my lord.” “Yes, you did. And now tell me how you could have prevented the mar- riage?” asked Lord Genlis. Sosia only shrugged his shoulders in reply. “Tt does not matter now,” said Lord Genlis. “Hold out your hands.” “You really mean to bind me, and to give me into the hands of Neil Bash- fort to be strangled!” “Hold out your hands, or this wom- an, who has thrice your strength, shall seize you.” On heariitig this threat Martha be- gan to tremble. She dreaded the anger of her lord, but she felt that she would rather grasp a coiled serpent than be- gin a struggle with Zeno Sosia. “My lord,” pleaded Sosia, “you may slay me, or your henchman, Bashfort, may strangle me—yet take care. Mur- der is a dread crime. It always cries for vengeance. Remember the four sailors who are not far off, and who accompanied us hither.” “I have remembered them.” began Lord Genlis, grimly: but as he spoke a shrill and distinct whistle greeted the ears of all in the room. “It is Neil Bashfort’s whistle,” thought Martha. One may hear it at a mile’s distance at times. It sounds as if he were far away—perhaps on the platform of the cliff—the window is in that direction. At what devilish work is he? My lord’s eyes sparkle as with some devilish. joy!” “Listen!;” said Lord Genlis. the in- stant the sound of the distant whistle was heard .and holding aloft his hand. “Que!” There was a dead silence in the apartment for a long moment. and then the distant whistle was heard again. “Two!” said Lord Genlis, his hand still raised to commiand perfect si- lence All gazed at him wonderingly. for his swarthy features seemed to glow with the exultant sparkle of his eyes. “Devil’s work is being done!” mut- tered Martha in her shaw]. “There!” said Lord Genlis, as the whistle was heard for the third time. Then a long pause, much longer than any that had taken place between the other whistled signals. “Patience!” said Lord Genlis, though his brow began to lower. At last the whistle for the fourth and last time. “Four!” exclaimed Lord Genlis. “Ha! Neil Bashfort is worth his weight in gold. Sosia, I have remembered the four sailors. They are only to be for- gotten now, for they are as you soon shall be—dead!” “Dead!” exclaimed Cant. more amazed ‘than: shocked. “Aye! Would you have four to bear witness against us if we could not bend her to our will?” demanded Lord Gen- lis, with a nod toward Helen, who could only comprehend that something terrible had just been done not far away, though, as she had no knowl- edge of the recent presence of the four sailors, she could not understand much of what had passed. “Great heaven!” she thought, “who are these fearful men into whose pow- er I have fallen?” “Aye!” muttered Martha, shudder- ing. “I knew ‘twas some fearful work Neil Bashfort done at our master’s bidding!” “Dead—the four sailors who came with us—they are dead?” asked Sosia, his voice shrill and husky. “Aye, they are dead!—and the man who made them so will soon be here to take charge of Zeno Sosia—who will be a wizard indeed if he escapes from Aranmore to prate of what he did for the Osreds of Genlis,” replied Lord Genlis. “Nay, then it is time for me to be gone!” exclaimed Sosia, suddenly drawing what appeared to be a pistol from his portmanteau, and brandishing it over his head and about him in every direction, and with marvelous quickness. Volumes of green and red flames, and pitchy black smoke, hissed and fumed from Sosia’s strange weapon, and in an instant the whole space about him was a mass of smoke im- penatrable to the eye; and in an in- credibly short time every quarter of the large apartment was filled with this smoky vapor, amid which nothing could be seen distinctly ,and the odor of which rapidly produced a feeling of great exhaustion and an uncontrolable desire to lie down. At the moment when Sosia snatched his hands from the portmanteau, Lord Genlis and Capt. Osred, detecting in- stantly the shape of a large cavalry pistol, as they supposed, sprang for- ward with their swords raised, to cut Osred, him down before he should be able to use the weapon. But the table was between them and Sosia, and before either of the assail- ants could reach him volumes and jets of flame and black smoke darted to- ward them, instantly enveloping the doctor. ard making them reel back, amazed and half stifled. Martha, terrified by the suddenness with which Sosia enveloped himself in glittering, hissing flame and _ black smoke, wonderful in volume and pow- er of diffusion, shrieked, as she drew her Shawl tightly over her head: “Jt is all devil's work and he is Satan himself!” “Ave, or Satan aids him!” gasped Lord Genlis, half stifled by the strange and sickening odor, and sinking to the floor. “"’Sdeath!” cried Capt. Osred, as he reeled back, suddenly weak in every muscle and joint. “This is sorcery! I stifle! I die!” And with a muttered curse, and staggering to the wall behind him blindly, he also sank down, overcome bv a deathly languor like that of sea- sickness. CHAPTER VI. The Entrance of Bashfort. As Helen Beauclair was already in a recumbent posture, the odor of the smoke from the sorcerer’s weapon had not had that effect upon her which it had upon Lord Genlis and his son; but as she tried to spring to her feet, terri- fied into rapid action by what she saw, her first inhalation of the fume caused her to fall back upon her couch gasp- ing for breath, sick and faint. Martha Bashfort, who had enveloped her head in her shawl, for a time es- caped breathing the strange and sick- ening odor; but as soon as she cast aside the folds to peer about, and in- tending to escape from the room by the door, she, too, inhaled the murky air, and with a low cry of dismay and nausea sank down as camels do when the blasts of the simoon sweep over them. Those thus affected knew not how long they remained under the infiu- ence of the sorcerer’s potent gas, for eacn of the four quickly sank into a swoon from its effect. It seemed to Helen as if hours had passed in dead silence ere she became conscious that some one was rapping furiously somewhere not far from her. At first she could not locate the di- rection of this furious rapping, the first effect of which was to rouse her to consciousness simply. She opened her eyes, and it seemed to her as if the effort to do so simple a thing as to unclose her lids required all the strength in her body. The air of the apartment was now perfectly clear, and the lamps were burning as brightly as before. Turning her head upon her pillow with great effort, for all her muscles seemed limp and lax, she saw three motionless forms prostrate on the floor. The two Osreds lay upon their backs, their pale and rigid faces turned up- wards, and looking fearfully like the faces of dead men. Martha: lay in a crouching posture, her forehead upon the carpet, and her hands stiffly clutching her shawl about Ker head. The hands of the woman were corpse-like in their hue and Helen thought Martha was dead. The potent gas which had produced these remarkable effects was no long- er perceptible to Helen’s sight or smell. The furious rapping, which had ceased for a moment, as if he who had made it were pausing to listen, began again as Helen’s glances roved over the room in vain search of the sop cerer. (To Be Continued.) MADE HIS ALIBI GOOD. Tardy Student Had Been in Hands of Police. Always be truthful, my son. Let me tell you the story of a veracious col- lege student. He was in the engineering depart ment of the university of Michigan, though Mexico was the land that gave him birth. On the occasion of a big football game in Detroit he came down with the rest of the boys to see the contest. It was late Monday after. noon before he reappeared at the uni- versity, and, having missed several classes, it became necessary to call upon the dean in order to procure a written excuse. The dean—he was Prof. Green, who died not long ago, looked at him se- verely. “What was the matter, Mr. Why didn’t you get back in time?” “I missed da train, senor.” “Well, why didn’t you come home on the electric line? The trolley cars run every half hour up to half-past 10, you know.” The Mexican never blinked. “Senor,” he said, “dat is true. But —at half-past 10 I was in da hands of da police magistrate.” For one moment Dean Green, who was exceedingly strict in matters of this sort, gazed at the young man. Then, in silence, he picked up a blank and wrote out the required excuse.— Detroit Tribune. \ ° Very Simple.

It can ty used any length of time without acquir- ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro- duce temporary results. It is perman- ent in its effect.
