reply, but looked at the lawyer. The
captain grinned as he added: “The

"You can be perfectly frank, Mrs.

“We have no desire to conceal any-
thing from Capt. Clinton.”
Annie bowed.

It'g all tha lama to you. I'll wait down-
stairs. Goodnight.”
He went out. his hat Impudently
tilted back on his head, a sneer on his
lips. The banker turned to the Judge
“I told you how It would be.” he |
said scornfully. "A flash In the pan!" j
The lawyer looked askance at An-
nie.
"You are aure she will come?" ha
asked
• Yes. I am sure!” With concern she
added: "But the disgrace of arrest!
It will kill her! Oh. Judge, don't let
them arrest her!”
“Tell me who she Is!” commanded
the lawyer sternly.
It was the first time he had spoken
to her harshly and Annie, to her dis-
may, thought she detected a note of
doubt In his voice Looking toward
the banker, she replied:
"I can't tell you Just now—she'll be
here soon—”
“Tell me now—1 Insist." said the
lawyer with growing Impatience.
“Please—please don’t ask me! she
pleaded.
Mr. Jeffries made an angry gesture.
“As 1 told you, Brewster, her whole
story Is a fabrication trumped up for
some purpose—God knows what ob-
ject she has In deceiving us! I only
know that I warned you v 'tat you al-
ways may expect from people of her
The Judge said nothing for a mo-
ment Then quietly he whispered to
the banker:
"Go Into my study for a few mo-
ments, will you, Jeffries?”
The banker made a gesture, as If
utterly disgusted with the whole busi-
ness.
•'I am going home,” he Bald testily.
'T've had a most painful evening
most painful. Let me know the re-
sult of your Investigation as soon as
possible. Good night. Don't disturb
me to-night, Brewster. To-morrow will
do."
He left the room In high dudgeon,
banging the door behind him. Annie
burst Into a laugh.
• Don't disturb him!” she mimicked.
"He's going to get all that's coming
to him.”
Shocked nt her levity, the lawyer
turned on her severely.
"Do you want me to lose all faith
In you?" he asked sternly.
“No, Indeed," she answered con-
tritely.
'Then tell me," ho demanded, "why
do you conceal this woman's name
from me?”
"Because I don't want to be the one
to expose her. She shall tell you her-
■elf.”
'That’s all very well,” he replied,
"but meantime you are directing sus-
picion against yourself. Your father-
in-law believes you are the woman;
so does Capt. Clinton.”
“The captain suspects everybody,"
she laughed. "It's his business to
suspect. As long as you don’t believe
"Yes," she said slowly: “I promised _______
Judge Brewster that she would come I j vjEited Underwood that night—'
here to-night.
Did she promise to come?” growled
the captain.
"Yes."
“Well, where Is ihe?” he demanded.
"She hasn't come yet,” she replied,
“but she will. I'm iure—I know she
will."
How did you come to And her?"
demanded the captain suspiciously.
Annie hesitated ■ moment and
glanced at Mr. Jeffries. Then she
said hesitatingly!
“That l—I cannot say—now."
Capt. Clinton's massive bulldog Jaw
closed with an ominous click.
Decline to answer, eh? What's her
name?"
She remained silent.
"What's her name?" he repeated
Impatiently.
"I cannot tell you,” she said firmly.
“Do you know It?" he bellowed.
"Yes," she answered quietly.
"Know It, but can't say, eh? Hum!”
He folded his arms and glared at
her. Mr. Jeffries now Interfered. Ad-
dressing Annie angrily, he said:
"But you must speak! Do you real-
Ixe that my son's life Is at stake?"
"Yes. I do," she replied quickly.
"I'm glad to see that you are begin-
ning to realize it, too. But I can't
tell you yet—"
The Judge turned to the police cap-
tain.
“1 may tell you, captain, that even
1 myself have not succeeded In learn-
ing the name of this mysterious per-
sonage." Addressing Annie, he said:
"I think you had better tell us. I see
no advantage In concealing It any fur-
ther.”
Annie shook her head.
"Not yet.” she murmured; "she will
tell you hereelf when she comes."
“Hh! I thought as much!” exclaimed
the banker lncreduously.
The captain rose and drew himself
up to his full height, a favorite trick
of his, when about to assert his au-
thority.
"Well, when she does come! he
exclaimed. "I think you may as well
understand she will be taken to head-
‘As Annie entered the room and
caught sight of Mr. Jeffries, she In-
stinctively drew back. Just at that
moment the banker was. perhaps, the
one man in the world whom she was
most anxious to avoid Capt. Clinton

(there was nothing more to fear. It
was only a question of time when
Howard would be set free. But
It was not In this girl's nature
to be concerned only with her-
self. If she possessed a single wom-
anly vlrture. It was supreme unselfish-
ness. There was some one beside her-
self to take Into consideration—a

woman who wished to do what was ( —heW as a witness,

who. In the privacy of her own apart-'
clients, had gone down on her knees
and begged Annie to protect her from
the consequences of her own folly.1
Her husband must not know. Annie
had promised that If there was any
way possible the knowledge of that
clandestine midnight visit to Under-
wood's rooms should be kept from, may

She was afraid that If they began
questioning her In his presence she
might be betrayed Into saying some-
thing that would Instantly arouse his
suspicions.
Judge Brewster went quickly for-
ward as she came In and led her to a
chair. Capt. Clinton and Mr Jeffries
eyed her In stolid silence. Looking
around in a nervous kind of way. An-
nie said quietly to the Judge:
"May 1 speak to you alone. Judge.
"Certainty.” replied the lawyer.
He was about to draw her aside
when Capt. Clinton Interfered.
“One moment!” he said gruffly; .’if

-you say it is. judge—I'd like to ask

“Certainly, by all means." said the
lodge quickly.
The captain turned and confronted
,Ancle. Addressing her In his cus
»co»ary aggressive manner, he said:
“You promised Judge Brewster that
■you'd produce the woman who called arrest her, but
The judge shook his head as If pux-
zled.
"Candidly. I don’t know what to
think,” Seriously, he added: “I want
to think the very beat of you, Annie,
but you won’t let me."
She hesitated a moment and then,
quickly, she said:
“I suppose I'd better tell you and
have done with It—hut 1 don t like
to—'"
At that moment % servant entered
and handed the lawyer s card.
“The lady wants to see you at once,
gir."
'To see me,” asked the lawyer In
surprise: "are you sure she hasn’t
come for Mr. Jeffries?"
"No, sir; she asked for you."
Annie sprang forward.
“Is it Mrs. Jeffries?" she asked.
“Yes." he replied.
"Let me see her. Judge," she ex-
claimed eagerly; “I’ll tell her who It Is
and she can tell you—she’s a woman
—and I’d rather. Let me speak to her.
pleasel
Addressing the servant, the lawyer
said;
"Ask Mrs. Jeffries to come up.
Turning to his client, he went on;
"1 see no objection to your speaking
to Mrs. Jeffries. After all. she Is your
husband's stepmother. But I am free
to confess that I don't understand you.
1 am more than disappointed In your
failure to keep your word. You prom-
ised definitely that you would bring
the witness here to-night On the
strength of that promise I made state-
ments to Capt. Clinton which I have
not been able to substantiate. The
whole story looks like an Invention on
your part"
She held out her hands entreat-
"U's not an Invention! Really,
Judge! Just a little while longer!
You've been so kind, so patient!
There was a trace of anger In the
lawyer’s voice as he went on:
“I believed you Implicitly. You were
so positive this woman would
forward."
"Bhe will—sh# will. Girt ms only
n few mlnutss more!" sh# cried.
Tbs lawyor looked at her aa If pos-
ited.
"A few mlnutss?" he said. Again
he looked st her and then shook his
head resignedly. "Well, It’s certainly
Infectious!" he exclaimed. "I bellsTS
you again.”
The door op€ned and Allclfi appeared,
j The lawyer advanced politely to greet
her.
"Good evening, Mrs. Jeffries.”
Alicia shook hands with him, at the
same tlmo looking Inquiringly at An-
nie, who. by a quick gesture, told her
that the Judge knew nothing of her
secret. The lawyer Vent on:
"Mrs. Juries. Jr., wishes to speak
to you. rsaid I thought there'd be
no objection; you don't mind. May
she?" *
"Yes.” murmured Alicia.
"Your husband was here,” said the
judge
“Mv husband!" she cried, startled
Again she glanced Inquiringly at An-
nie and tried to force a smile.
"Yes," said the lawyer; "he'll be
glad to know you’re here. I'll tell
him.” Turning to Annie, he said:
When you’re ready, please send
and—”
“Very well, Judge.”
The lawyer went out and Allcls
turned round breathlessly.
"My husband was here?" Bhe ex-
clatmed.
“Yes."
"You've told Mr. Brewster nothing?"
Annie shook her head.
“1 couldn’t!” she said. “I tried to,
but 1 couldn't It seems so hard, doesn't
It?” Alicia laughed bitterly and An-
nie went on: "I was afraid you weren't
coming!”
“The train was late!" exclaimed Al-
icia evasively, "I went up to Stam-
ford to say good-by to my mother."
"To aay good-by?" echoed her com-
panion in surprise.
"Yes," said the other tearfully. "1
have said good-by to her—I have said
good-by to everybody—to everything—
to myself—I must give them all up—
I must give myself up.”
"Oh, It Isn't as bad as that, surely?"
Alicia shook her head sadly.
"Yes," she said; "I've reckoned It
all up. It's a total loss. Nothing will
be saved—husband, home, position,
good name—all will go. You’ll see. I
shall be tom Into little bits of shreds.
They won't leave anything unsaid. But
it's not that I care for so much. It's
the Injustice of It all. The Injustice
of the power of evil. This man Under
wood never did a good action in all
his life. And now even after he Is
dead he has the power to go on de-
stroying—destroying—destroying!"
“That’s true,” said Annie; “he was
no good."
The banker’s wife drew from her
bosom the letter Underwood wrote
her before he killed himself.
“When he sent me this letter," she
went on. “I tried to think myself Into
his condition of mind, so that I could
decide whether he Intended to keep
hla word and kill himself or not. I
tried to reason out Just how he felt
and how he thought. Now I know.
It's hopeless, dull, sodden despera
tlon. I haven’t even the ambition to
defend myself from Mr. Jeffries."
Annie shrugged her shoulders.
“I wouldn't lose any sleep on his
account,” she said with a laugh. More
seriously she added: "Surely he won t
believe—"
"He may not bellere anything him-
aelf," eaid Alicia. “It’s what other peo-
ple are thinking that will make him
suffer. If the circumstances were only
a little less disgraceful—a suicide’s
last letter to the woman he loved.
They’ll say I drove him to It They
won't think of his miserable, dishon-
est career. They’U only think of my
share In his death—”
Annie shook her head sympathetic-
ally.
"Yes," Bhe said; "It’s tough! The
worst of It Is they are going to arrest
you."
Alicia turned ashen pale.
"Arrest me!” she erled.
•That's what Capt. Clinton says,”
replied the other gravely. “He was
here—he Is here now—with two men.
waiting for you." Apologetically she
went oh: “It wasn't my fault, Mrs.
Jeffries—I didn’t mean to. What
could I do? When I told Judge Brew-
ster he sent for Capt. Clinton. The
police are afraid you'll run away or
something—”
•And my husband!” gasped AUcla;
“he doesn't know, does he?"
"No, I didn't tell them. I said you'd
tell them yourself, but they won t
trust you when they know who you
are. Let's tell the judge—he may
think of a plan. Suppose you go away
until_" puzzled herself to find a way
out of the dilemma, Annie paced the
floor nervously. “Oh, this Is awful!
she exclaimed. “What are we to do?"
She looked toward Alicia, as if ex-
pecting some suggestion from her, but
her companion was too much over-
whelmed to take any Initiative.
