CHAPTER XVII— Continued
There was a sound of mirth and
scampering feet in tho hall above and
then down thestep3 between the line
of guests arrested in their descent
came a dark laughing girl in the garb
of Little Red Riding Hood amid gen-
eral applause and laughter
“It’s Olivia! She won the wager!”
exclaimed the spectacled gentleman
and the girl whoso dark curls were
sheken about her face ran up to us
and threw her arms about him and
kissed him It was a charming pic-
ture — the figures on the stairway the
pretty graceful child the eager happy
faces all about I was too Interested
In the scene to be uncomfortable
Then at the top of’ the stair her
height accentuated by her gown of
white stood Marian Devereux hesi-
tating an instant as a bird pauses be-
fore taking wing and then laughingly
running between the lines to where
Olivia faced her In mock abjection
To the charm of the girl In the wood-
land wa3 added now the dignity of
beautiful womanhood and my heart
leaped at the thought that I had ever
spoken to her that I was there be-
cause she had taunted me with the
risk of coming
Above on the stair landing a deep-
toned clock began to strike midnight
and every one cried “Merry Christ-
mas!” and “Olivia’s won!” and there
was more hand clapping In which I
joined with good will
Some ono behind me was explaining
what had Just occurred Olivia the
youngest daughter of the house had
been denied a glimpse of the ball
Miss Devereux had made a wager
with her host that Olivia would ap-
pear before midnight and Olivia de-
feating the plot against her gained
tho main hall at the stroke of 12
“Gcod night! Good night!” called
Olivia — the real Olivia — In derision to
the company and turned and ran back
through the applauding laughing
throng
The spectacled gentleman was Oliv-
ia’s father and ho mockingly rebuked
Malan Devereux for having encour-
aged an Infraction of parentl disci-
pline while she was twitting him upon
tho less of his wager Then her eyes
rested upon me for the first time She
lifted her brows slightly but contin-
ued talking placidly to her host The
s’uation did not please me I had not
traveled so far and burglariously en-
tered Doctor Armstrong’s house In
quest of a girl with blue eygs merely
to stand by while she talked with an-
other man
I drew nearer Impatiently and was
conscious that four other young men
in white waistcoats and gloves quite
as Irreproachable as my own stood
ready to claim her the instant she was
free I did not propose to bo thwarted
by the beaux of Cincinnati and I ad-
dressed my host boldly
“I beg your pardon Doctor — ” I
said with an assurance for which I
blush to this hour
“All right my boy I too have been
in Arcady!” he exclaimed In cheerful
apology and she put her hand on my
arm and I led her away
“He called mo ‘my boy’ so I must be
passing muster” I remarked not dar-
ing to look at her
“He’s afraid not’ to recognize you
His inability to remember faces is a
town joke”
We reached a quiet corner of the
great hall and I found a seat for her
“You don’t seem surprised to see
me — you knew I would come I should
have come across the world for this
— for Just this”
Her eyes were grave at once
“Why did you come? I did not think
you were so foolish This Is all — so
wretched You didn't know that Mr
Pickering — Mr Pickering — ”
She was greatly distressed and this
name came from her chokingly
“Yes what of him?” I laughed “He
Is well on the way to California— and
without you!”
“No — you don’t know— you don’t un-
derstand — he’s here! He abandoned
his California trip at Chicago he tele-
graphed me to expect him — here — to-
night! You must go at one— at
once!"
“Ah but you can’t frighten me” 1
said trying to realize Just what a meet-
ing with Pickering in that house might
mean
“No" — she looked anxiously about
— “they were to arrive late he and the
Taylors they know the Armstrongs
quite well They may come at any
moment now Please go!”
“But I have only a few minutes my-
self— you wouldn't have me sit them
out In the station down town? There
are some things I have come to say
and Arthur Pickering and I are not
afraid of each other!”
“But you must not meat him here
Think what that would mean to me!
You are very foolhardy Mr Glenarm
I had no idea you would come — ”
“But you wished to try me — you
challenged me”
“That wasn't me — It waa Olivia”
sho laughed more at ease “I
thought—”
"Yes what did you think— that 1
was tied hand and foot by a dead
man’s money — ”
“No It wasn’t that wretched for-
tune but I enjoyed playing the child
before you — I really love Olivia — and
It seemed that the fairies were protect-
ing me and that I could play being a
child to the very end of tha chapter
without any real mischief coming of It
I wish I were Olivia!” she declared
her eyes away from me
“That's rather idle I'm not really
sure yet what your name Is and I
don't care Let’s Imagine that we
haven't any names— I’m sure my name
isn’t of any use and I’ll be glad to go
nameless all my days If only — ”
“If only — ” she repeated idly open-
ing and closing her fan It was a frail
blue trifle painted In golden butter-
flies “There are so many ‘If onltes’ that I
hesitate to choose hut I will venture
one If only you will come back to St
Agatha’s! Not to-morrow or the next
day but say with the first bluebirds
I believe they are the harbingers up
there”
Her very ease was a -balm to my
spirits she was now a veritable daugh-
ter of repose One arm In Its long
white sheath lay quiet In her lap her
right hand held the golden butterflies
against the soft curve of her cheek A
collar of pearls clasped her throat and
accented the clear girlish outlines of
her profile I felt the appeal of her
youth and purity It was like a cry In
my heart and the dreary house by the
lake and Pickering And the weeks
within the stone walls of my prison
were as though they had never been
“The friends who know me best
never expect me to promise to be any-
where at a given time I can’t tell
perhaps I Bhall follow the bluebirds to
Indiana but whv should I when I
can’t play being Olivia any more?”
“Why not? You have seen how dull
I am and that note of apology you
4
!
At the Top of the Stair Her Height
Stood Marian
wrote from the school really fooled
me But I have Mia the real Olivia
now I don’t want yon zo go too t-—
not where I ' can’t I'Jllow— and this
flight I shall hardly dare repeat”
Her lips closed — like a rose that had
gone back to be a bud again — and she
pondered a moment slowly freeing
and Imprisoning the golden butterflies
“You have risked a fortune Mr
Glenarm very very foolishly — If you
are found here Why Olivia must
have recognized you! She had seen
you often across the wall”
“But I don’t care — I’m not staying
at that ruin up there for money My
grandfather meant more to me than
that — "
“Yes I believe that is so He was
a dear old gentleman and he liked me
because I thought his jokes adorable
My father and he had known each
other But there was — no expectation
— no wish to profit by his friendship
My name In his will is a great embar-
rassment a source of real annoyance
The newspapers printed dreadful pic-
tures of me In connection with the
will I say to you quite frankly that I
wouldn't accept a cent of Mr Glen-
arm’s money if It were offered me
and that is why” — and her smile was
a flash of spring — “I want you to obey
the terms of the will and earn your
fortune”
She closed the fan sharply and
lifted her eyes to mine
“But there isn’t any fortune It’s
all a myth a Joke”
“Mr Pickering doesn’t seem to
think so He had every reason for be-
lieving that Mr Glenarm was a very
rich man” '
“But assuming that there’s money
buried there by the lake like a pirate’s
treasure it isn’t Pickering’s If he finds
it There are laws to protect even the
dead from robbery!” I concluded hotly
“How difficult you are! ’ Suppose
you should fall from a boat or be shot
—accidentally — then I might have to
take the fortune after all and Mr
Pickering might think of an easier way
of getting it than by — ”
“Stealing It! Yes I know what you
mean but you wouldn’t— I”
Half-past 12 struck on the stairway
and I started to my feet
“You wouldn’t — ” I repeated
“I might yqu know!”
“I must go— but not with that not
with any hint of that — please!”
“If you let him defeat you If you
fall to spend your year there — we’ll
overlook this one lapse” — she looked
me steadily in the eyes wholly guilt-
less of coquetry but infinitely kind —
“then—”
She paused opened the fan held it
up to the light and studied the golden
butterflies
“Yes—”
“Then — let me see— oh 1 shall never
chase another rabbit as long as I live!
Now go— quickly — quickly!”
“But you haven’t told me when and
where it was we met the first time
Please!”
She laughed but urged me away
with her eyes
“I shan’t do it! It isn't proper for
me to remember if your memory is
so poor I wonder how it would seem
for us to meet just once — and be in-
troduced! Good night! You really
came You are a gentleman of your
word Squire Glenarm!”
She gave me the tips of her fingers
without looking at me
A servant came in hurriedly
“Miss Devereux Mr and Mrs Tay-
lor and Mr Pickering are in the drawing-room”
“Yes very well I will come at
once”
Then to me:
“They must not see you — there that
way!” and she stood in the door fac-
ing me her hands lightly touching the
frame as though to secure my way
I turned for a last look and saw her
waiting — her eyes bent gravely upon
me her arms still half-raised barring
the door then she turned swiftly
away and passed through the hall
Accentuated by Her Gown of White
Devereux
Outside I found my hat and coat
and wakened my sleeping driver He
drove like mad into the city and I
swung myself upon the north-bound
train just as it was drawing out of the
station
CHAPTER XVIII
i
I Meet an Old Friend
When I reached Glenarm House the
next morning I found to my astonish-
ment that the window I had left open
as I scrambled out the night before
was closed I dropped my bag and
crept tu the front door thinking that
If Bates had discovered my absence it
was useless to attempt any further
deception ’I waa amazed to find the
great doors of the main entrance flung
wide and in real alarm I ran through
(be hall and back to the library
The nearest door stood open and as
I peered in a curious scene disclosed
Itself A few of the large cathedral
candles still burned brightly In several
places thetr flames rising strangely In
the gray morning light Books had
been taken from the shelves and scat-
tered everywhere and sharp imple-
ments had cut ugly gashes In the
shelving The drawers containing
sketches and photographs had been
pulled out and thetr contents thrown
about and trampled under foot
The house was as silent as a tomb
but as I stood on the threshold trying
to realize what had happened some-
thing stirred by the fireplace aud I
crept forward listening until I stood
D
by the long table beneath the great
chandelier Again I heard a sound as
of some animal walking and stretch-
ing followed by a moan that undoubt-
edly was human Then the hands of a
man clutched the farther ’edge of the
table and slowly and evidently with
Infinite difficulty a figure rose and the
dark face of Bates with eyes blurred
and staring strangely confronted me
He drew hts body to Its height and
leaned heavily upon the table I
snatched a eandle and bent toward
him to make sure my eye were not
tricking me

Acre Ranch Now on the Market
Orange Cal March 1 1907
Dr C F Simmons San Antonio Texts:
Dear Sir— Yours at band I would Eke to have called at the offic
when I came back but it was Sunday and1 1 took the train for home I
was on your 95000-acre ranch three days I found it much better than I
expected I am aatisfied in my own mind that with proper wind breaks as
we have in this country oranges lemons apricots figs olives and almonds
can bo successfully grown there
I am sure that south of San Antonio ia the natural home of the English
walnut
The soil on your land is much better for fruit raising than it is In
this country because you have a good red clay subsoil while in Southern Cali-
fornia we nave gravel and rock that does not hpld moisture
We have to irrigate here at least ten times a year and continually work
i but I don’t think this would be necessary on your land m South
the orchards
Texas at-leaet not eo much of it because the red clay will hold moisture and
will give the fruit a better flavor
Orange orchards in this country are worth from $500 to $1000 and wal-
nuts from $200 to $500 per acre
I think south of San Antonio to the Gulf fs a better country than from
Los Angeles Cal to San Diego Cal because the soil is better there is more
water and the climate is just as good so far as I could see and bear by talk-
ing to old settlers and the land ia so cheap that every workingman should
have a home
I am Bure that in the near future Sonth Texas will be a prosperous
fruit growing country and will be as valuable as Southern California and
tbe man who will lose money in South Texas is the man that does not get
in on this cheap land of yours before
’ ” '’alifoi ’ 1 ’
