He was never even a spectator at the races, Not that kind of a man.

He had contributed liberally toward its support and had chosen its chapel as his favorite place of private worship. It was said that he went there daily with his devo- tions at the altar. Indeed, toward the last of his life, his whole mind seemed to have fixed itself upon re- ligious matters, perhaps to the detri ment of his worldly affairs. Thither went Robbins and Du mars, and were admitted thru the narrow dporway in the blank stone wall that frowned upon Bonhomme Street. An old woman was sweep-| ing the chapel. She told them that | Sister Felicite, the head of the order, was then at prayer at the altar in the alcove. In a few momenta she would emerge. Heavy, black cur. tains screened the alcove. They waited. Soon the curtains were disturbed, and Sister Felicite came forth. She was tall, tragic, bony, “and plain- featured, dressed in the black gown and severe bonnet of the sisterhood. | Robbins, a good rough-and-tumble reporter, but lacking the delicate touch, began to speak. They represented the presa The lady had, no doubt, heard of the Morin affair. It was necessary, in Justice to that gentleman's memory, to probe the mystery of the lost money. It was known that he had come often to this chapel. Any in- formation, now, concerning Mr. Morin’s habits, tastes, the friends he had, and #0 on, would be of value in doing him posthumous justice. Sister Felicite had heard. What- ever she knew would be willingly told, but it was very little. Mon- sieur Morin had been a good friend to the order, sometimes contributing as much as a hundred dollars, The sisterhood was an independent one, depending entirely upon private con- tributions for the means to carry on its charitable work. Mr. Morin had presented the chapel with silver can- dlesticks and an altar cloth, He came every day to worship in the \chapel, sometimes remaining for an hour. He was a devout Catholic, |consecrated to holiness, Yes, and |also in the alcove was a statue of the Virgin he had himself modeled, cast, and presented to the order. Oh, it was cruel to cast a doubt upon #0 good a man! Robbins was also profoundly | grieved at the imputation, But, un til ft was found what Mr. Morin had done with Madame Tibault’s money, he feared the tongue of slander would not be stliled” Sometimes—in fact, very often—in affairs of the kind there was—er—as the saying | Koes—er—a—lady in the case, In absolute confidence, now—if—er— perhaps— Sister Felicite’s large eyes regard- ed him solemnly. “There was one woman,” she said, lowly, “to whom he bowed—to whom he gave his heart.” Robbing fumbled rapturously for his pencil, “Behold the woman! sald Sister | Felicite, suddenly, in deep tones, She reached a long arm and swept aside the curtain of the alcove.

Thea womewhat abashed Robbins, murmuring an indixtinct apology, backed awkwardly away, Sister | Felicite drew back the curtain, and the reporters departed On the narrow stone sidewalk of Ronhomme Street, Robbina turned to Dumars, with unworthy sarcasm , What next? Churchy law “Absinthe,” said Dumars, With the history of the missing money thus partially related, some of the sudden idea that Madame Tibault words seemed to have suggested to Robbins’ brain, Was it so wild a surmise—that the religious fanatic had offered up his} wealth—or, rather Madame Tibault's in the shape of a material symbol of his consuming devotion? Stranger | things have been done in the name | of worship, Was it not posable that the lost thousands were mould: ed into that lustrous image? That the goldsmith had formed it of the pure and precious metal, and set it there, thru some hope of a perhaps disordered brain to propitiate the} saints and pave the way to his own) That afternoon, at five minutes to three, Robbing entered the chapel door of the Little Sisters of Samaria. | He saw, in the dim light, a crowd of | perhaps a hundred people gathered | to attend the sale. Most of them were members of various religious | orders, priests and churchmen, come | to purchase the paraphernalia of the lest they fall into desecrat ing hands. Othera were business men and agents come to bid upon | he = realty, A clerical - looking brother had volunteered to wield the | hammer, bringing to the office of the auctioneer the anomaly of choice diction and dignity of manner. A few of the minor articles were sold, and then two aasintants brought forward the image of the Virgin. Robbins started the bidding at ten doliars. A stout man, in an ec cleataatical garb, went to fifteen. A voice from another part of the crowd raised to twenty, The three bid al ternately, raising by bide of five, until the offer was fifty dollars. Then the stout man dropped out, and Robbins, as a sort of coup de main, went to a hundred. “One hundred and fifty,” said the other voice. “Two hundred.” bid Robbina, bold ly. “Twotifty,” called his competitor, promptly. The reporter hesitated for «the space of a lightning flash, estimat: | ing how much he could borrow from the boys in the office, and screw from the business manager from his next month's salary “Three hundred,” he offered. “Three-fifty,” spoke up the other, in @ louder volce—a voice that sent Robbins diving suddenly thru the crowd in its direction, to catch Du- mars, its owner, ferociously by the collar, “You unconverted idiot” hissed Robbins, close to his ear—"pool™ “Agreed!” maid Dumars, coolly. “I couldn't raise three hundred and fifty dqllare with a search-warrant, but I stand half, What you come bidding against me fort? “I thought J was the only fool tn the crowd,” explained Robbins. No one elne bidding, the statue was knocked down to the ayndicate at their last offer. Dumars remain ed with the prize, while Robbins hurried forth to wring from the re- sources and credit of both the price. He soon returned with the money, and the two musketeers loaded their precious package into a carriage and drove with it to Dumar’s room, in olf Chartres Street, nearby. They lugged it, covered with a cloth, up the stairs, and deposited it on @ table. A hundred pounds it weighed, if an ounce, and at that estimate, according to their calculation, if their daring theory were correct, it stood there, worth twenty thousand golden dollars. Robbing removed the covering. and opened his pocket-knife. “Sacre!” muttered Dumara, shud dering. “It is the Mother of Christ. What would you do?” “Shut up, Judas!” maid Robbins, coldly. * too late for you to be saved now. With @ firm hand, he clipped a stice from the shoulder of the image. The cut showed a dull, grayish metal, with a thin coating of gold leaf “Lead!” announced Robbins, hurl ing his knife to the floor—"“gilded!” “To the devil with mt! sald Du mars, forgetting his scruples. must have a drink." Together they walked moodily to} the cafe of Madame Tibault, two| squares away. | It seemed that madame's mind had been stirred that day to fresh recol- | lections of the past services of the two young men in her behalf. “You mustn't #it by those table,” she interposed, as they were about to drop into their accustomed seats, “Thase #0, boys. But no. I mek you come at this room, like my tres bons amis. Yes. I goin’ mek for you myself one anisette and one cafe royale ver’ fine. Ab! I lak treat fren’ nize. Yes, Plis come in this way.” Madame led them into the little back room, into which she some times invited the especially favored of her customers. In two comfort able armchairs, by a big window that opened upon the courtyard, she placed them, with a low table be tween, Bustling hospitably about, she began to prepare the promised refreshments, It was the first time the reporters had been honored with admission to the sacred precincts. The room was in dusky twilight, flecked with gleams of the polished fine woods and burnished glass and metal that the Creoles love. From the little courtyard a tiny fountain sent in an insinuating sound of trickling waters, to which a banana plant by the window kept time with its trem: ulous leavers. Robbins, an investigator by na- ture, sent @ curious glance roving about the room. From some bar. baric ancestor, madame had inher- ited a penchant for the crude In dec- oration The walls were adorned with cheap lithographs—florid libels upon nature, addressed to the taste of the bourgeoisie—birthday cards, garish newspaper supplements, and spect mens of art-advertising calculated to reduce the optic nerve to stunned submission. A patch of something unintelligible in the midst of the more candid display puzzled Rob- bins, and he rose and took a step nearer, to interrogate it at closer | range., Then he leaned weakly against the wall, and called out: “Madame “Nbault!
