It will be remembered that the Countess Olga had darted up the etait e during the struggle between Braine and his captors. The police who 'had her were recalled to pursue one of the lesser rogues, This left Olga free for a moment. She stole out and down as far as the landing. Servan, the Russian agent, stood waiting for the taxicab to roll up te the porte coehere for himself, Braine, and Vroon, Norton bad taken Flor- ence by the hand, ostensibly to con- duct her to the million. Suddenly Braine :nada a dash for. liberty. Nor- ton rushed after him. Just as he reached Braine a shot was heard. Braine whirled upon his heels and crashed to the floor. ' Olga, intent upon giving injury to Norton, whom she regarded equally with Hargreave as having brought about the downfall, had hit her -lover instead, With a cry of despair she dashed back into Florence's room, quite ready to end it all. She raised the revolver to her temple, shuddered, and lowered the weapon : so tenacious- ly do we cling to life. Below they were all stunned by the suddenness of the shot, Instantly they sought the fallen man's side, and a hasty examination gave them the opinion that the man was dead. Hap- ply.a doctor was 'on the. way. Servan having given• a • cal), as one of the Black Hundred been badly wounded, But what to do with that mad Woman upstairs ? Hargreave advised them to wait. The bouse was sur- rounded ; ur-rounded; she could not possibly es- cape save by one method, and per haps that would be the best for her. Hargreave looked gravely at Norton as he offered this suggestion. The re- porter understood : • the millionaire was willing to give the woman a chance. "And you are my father ?" said Flor- ence, still bewildered by the amazing events. "But I don't understand 1'' her gaze roving from the real Jones to her father, "I don't doubt it, child," replied Hargreave. ' I'll explain, When I hired Jones here, who is really Jed- son of Scotland Yard, I did so because we looked alike when shaven. It was Jedson here who escaped ley the bal- loon ; it was Jedson who returned the five thousand to Norton ; it was J ed - son who was wounded in the arm; it was he who watched the doings of 'the Black Hundred and kept me reason- ably well informed. I myself guarded you, my child. Last night, unbeknown to.you, I left, and the real Jones—for it in easier to call him that -took my place." "And I never saw the difference 1" exclaimed Florence. "That is natural," smiled the father. "You were thinking of Norton here instead of me. Eh ?" Florence blushed. "Well, why not? Here, Norton!" The millionaire took Florence's hand and placed •it in the reporter's. "It seems that I've got to lose her after all Kiss her, man ; in heaven's name, kiss her I" And Norton threw his arms around the giri and liissed her soundly, Care- less of the fact that he was observed by both enemies and friends. .Suddenly the policeman'•who had been standing by the side of Braine 'ran into livhig=roAm. • "He's all i -s I Braine is alive 1 He justatirred 1" "What!" exclaimed Norton and Hargreave in a singled, breath. "Yes, sir ! I saw his' hands move, It's a good thing we sent for a doctor. He ought to be along here about %sow." • Even as -he spoke the bell rang, and they all surged out into the hall, for- getting for the moment all about the million. Olgahadn'tkilled the man, then ? The doctor knelt betide the stricken man and examined him. He shrugged. "Will he live ?" "Certainly... A scalp wound that laid him out fora -few mdmente. He'll be all right in a few days. He .was lucky. A quarter of an inch lower and he'd have passed in his chieckle" "Good l" murmored Servan. So our friend will accompany mo back to geed Russia? We'll be kind to him during the journey, Haim him taken to the hospital • ward at the Tombs; Now for the little lady upetaire•" ' • A moment later Patine opened big eyes, =and the policeman aeelstedhim to hie'feet Servan with a nod ordered the pollee to help the wounded lean to the taxicab Which had just arrived. Braine, Clow wholly Conscious!, flung back the look of hatred toward Hate *reeve ;.and Haat was the last either ,Florence or her father ever saw of life of the Black Enndrede:ne fine e 'polite the k n sper piers ota man gone 'wrong through 4gir eel.and an inmate:Ste lust for 're- Stelrge.. eThe e: p olteenrian :!returned .,to !lar' efedtreie " ' s to "Yt'ti prettet tentilt fpetalyd," 'he eug+ gedtt d� ''Deii t yotr'think, sir, that I'd better try that bedroom door again?" "Well, if you must," assented Hay, greave. reluctantly, "Bat don't be rough with Iter If you can help it." For Braine he had no sympathy, When he recalled all the mysery that devil's emissary had caused bits, the years of hiding and pursuit, the loss of the happiness that had rightfullyr been his, hie heart became adamant. For eighteen years to have ridden and driven and sailed up and down the world, always confident that sooner or later that demon would find him S He had lost the childhood of hie daughter, and now he was to lose her in her womanhood. ,And because of this im- placable hatred the child'e mother had died itt the Petrograd prison fortress, But what an enemy the man had been! He, Hargreave, had needed all his wits constantly; he had never dared go to sleep except with one eye open, But in employing ordinary crooks Braine bad at length over -reached himself, and now he must pay the penalty. The way of the transgressor is bard, and though this ancient saying iookedingy with the wear and tear of centuries, it still holds good. But he felt sorry for the women up above. She bad loved not wisely but too well. Far better for her if she put an end to life. She would not live a year in the God forsaken' snows of Siberia. "My kind father" said Florence, as if she could read his thoughts.' "I had a hard time of it, my child, It was difficult o play the butler with you about, The times that I fought down the desire to sweep you up in my arms ! But I kept an iron grip on that impulse. It would have imperil- ed you. In some manner it would have leaked out, and your lifa and mine wouldn't have been worth a but- ton." Florence threw her arms around him and held him tightly. That poor weak woman upstairs !" she murmered, "Can't they let her go." No, dear, She has lost, and losers pay the stakes. That's life, Norton, you knew who I was all the time, didn't you?" "I did, Mr. Hargreave, There was a scar on the lobe of your ear and secretly I had often wondered at the likeness between you and the real Jones. When I caught a glimpse of that ear then I knew what the game was. And I'll add you played amaz- ingly well. The one flaw in Braine's campaign was his burry. He started the ball rolling before getting all the phases clearly established in his mind. He was a brave man, anyhow ; and more than once he had me_ where I believed that prayers only were nec- essary." "And do you think that you can lead Florence to the million?" asked Hargreave, smiling. "For one' thing, it is in her room and has always been there. It never was in' the cheat." "Not bad, not bad," mused the fath- er. ''But perhaps after all it will be best if you show 'it to ker yourself.'' "Just a little uncertain?" jibed the millionaire. "Absolutely certain. I will whisper in'your ear where it ie hidden.". Nor- ton leaned forward as Hargreave bent attentively. "You've hit it," said the millionaire. "But how in the world did you guess it." "Because it was the last place any one would look for it, I .,judged at the start that you'd hide it in just such a spot, in some place where you could always guard it and lay your hands on it quickly if needs said must." a "I'm mighty glad you were on my side," said Hargreave. "In a few minutes we'll go up and take a look at those packets of hills, There's a very unhappy young woman there at present." ' "It is in my room?" cried Florence, Hargreave nodded. Meantime the Countess Olga hov- ered overed between two courses; a brave attempt to escape by the window or to turn the revolver against ber heart. In either case ' there was nothing left in life for her. The man she loved was dead below, killed by her hand. She felt as • though rhe was treading air in some fantaetioal nightmare, She could not go forward or backward, and her heels' were al - Ways in reach of her pursuers. So this was the end of things? The dream she bad had at going away with Braine tetother Aimee, the hap- pinees she had pictured, all were chimeras! A sudden rage swept over her. She would escape. She Wonid,- continue to play 'the game to the end, . She would show them that ehe had been the mane mate, not hie pliant tool? She ratted the window and Jo slipped the policeman who had patiently been waiting for her. Instantly she placed the revolver at her temple. • A quick clutch and the polioennati had her by the turista She made one tigerish effort• to free •her- self, shrugged, Red eignifled that she starrendered,- "I don't want to hit you, Miss," said the policeman, "but if you make amp attempt to escape I'II helve to put the bettdeuffe on you. •go quietly. What are you go. ;In fel de With me?" .. Tarn yitu o'er to the ltutriah agent, t. Habas extradition papers and I gases it's Siberia." "For me?" she laughed scornfully, ''Do I look like a woman who would go to Siberia?" "Be careful, miss. As I said, 1 don't want to um the cutis. unlsss I have to," She laughed again. It did not have a pleasant sound in the officer's ears.. He had heard woman, suicidal bent, laugh like that. "1,8 ask you for that ring on your linger." "Do you think there is poison in it?" "I shouldn't be surprised," he ad- mitted. She slipped the ring frees her fin- ger and gave it to him, "There Is poison in it, so be careful how you handle it,., she said. The policeman accepted it gingerly and dropped it into his capacious pocket. It tinkled as it fell against the handcuffs, "Before you take me away I want you to let me see . • .'-my man." "I can do that." At that moment the other pollee - mean broke in the door. "All right, Dolan; she's given up the game." "She didn't kill the man after all." said Officer Dolan. "He's alive?" she screamed. "Yes; and they've taken him off to the Tombs. Just a scalp wound. He'll be all rigbt in a day or two." "Alive!" murmured Olga. She had not killed the man she loved, then? ,And if they were indeed taken to Si- beria 'she would be with him until the end of things, With her handsome head proudly erect ebe walked toward the door. She paused for a moment to look at the portrait of Hargreave. Somehow it seemed to Emile at her ironically. Then on down the stairs, between the two officers she went. Her glance traveled coolly from face to face and stopped at Florence's, There she saw pity. "You are sorry for me?" she asked sceptically. "0, yes! I forgive you," said the gen- erous Florence. So the Countess Olga passed through the hall door forever. How many times had she entered ill with guile and treachery in her heart? It was the game. She had played it and lost, and ehe must pay her debts to Fate and Fiddler. Siberia! The tin or lead mines, the ankle chains, the knout, and many things that were far worse to a beautiful woman! Well, eo long as Braise was at ber elle ehe would suffer all these things without a murmur, An always there would be a chance, a chance! When they heard the taxicab rum- ble down the driveway to the street Hargreave turned to Florence, "Come along, now, and we'll have the bad taste taken off our tongues: To win cut is the true principle of life. It takes off some of the tinsel and glamor, but the end is worth while," They all trooped up the stairs to Florence rem. So wonderful is the power and attraction of money that they forgot the humiliation of their late enemies, Hargreave approached the portrait of himself, took it frons the wall, pres- sed a button on the back, which fell outward, Beholdt there, in neat packages of a hundred thousand each lay the myotic million! The specta- tors were awed into silence for a mo- ment. Perhaps the thought of each was identical-- the long etruggle, the terrible hazards, the deaths that had taken place because of this enormous rum of money. .A. million, sometimes called cool, why nobody knows! There it lay with, out feeling, without emotion; yellow notes payable te bearer on demand. Presently Florence gasped, Norton sighed and Hargreave smiled. The face of Jones (or Jedson) alone remain- ed impassive. A million dollars is a marvellous eight. Few people have ever seen it, not even millionaires themselves. I daresay you never saw it, and I'm tolerably certain I never have, or will! A million, ready for eager, care - lees fingers to spend or thrifty flu" gere to multiply! What Correggio, what Rubens, what Titian could stand beside it! None that I wot of. "Florence, that is all yours, to do With as you please, to spend when and how you will. Share it with your husband to be. lie is a brave and gal- lant young mate and is fortunate in finding andgallant.o young For the rest flm bravely g o Y days I expect peace, Perhaps sometimes Jones here and I will talk ever the strange things that have happened; but we'll do that only when we have not you young folks to talk to, Afeer your wedding journey you will return here, While I live this shall be your home. I demand that much. Free! No More looking over my ehauider when 1 walk the streets; no more testing windows and doors. 1 am myself again" 1 take up the thread I laid down eighteen years ego.
