himself, "you've got a niece now as

CHAPTER IV.
LEMUEL TAKES • WALK.
Siindry discreet coughs autl a
mildly persistent whisking of. a
napkin ou • part of the waiter re•
called Lemuel Strange to himself
fin 'reminded him that he could
not sit all night in Delmenico's
Cafe staring iu front of him, so he
- followed Mr. Nugont's example and
buttoning> his overcoat tightly up
.to his throat he put ou his hat and
passed out into the night.
It • had been snowing earlier in
.the evening, and though the fall
had not been heavy it had spread
a white mantle on -the street, which
was not yet deserted by the daily
traffic of a great city, and which
served to deaden the sounds of the
few passing vehicles. A couple of
hansoms were standing ou the
further side of Broadway as Strauge
emerged from -the -resta u re n t door,
carefully closed and bolted after
him by the attendant, and as
soon as the drivers saw hiin
they whipped up their horses
and raced across with shrill rivaling
cries of "Kehl Keb Want a. tub-,
sit?" but their expected fare only
shook his head, and turning the
corner sharply struck down Twenty-
sixth to the avenue.
He was in a. state of nervous
excitement and thought that a brisk
Walk, albeit he was not a man given
to over much exercise, might help
to clear his brain and allow him to
forinulate a plan ofaction. . Lemuel
Strange had skated over some
mighty thin ice during his business
career, but never before had he seen
such a stretch of dark and icy
water as had without warning
opened up to ingulf him. He had
speculated with his employe! 'd
money, at first in small sums, and
then, as he found how easily and
apparently safe . theft was, with
larger amounts, until now his spec-
ulations amouuted to many thousands
of dollars. Not that all had been squa-
dered far from it, had he only time
to let his ventures mature. Could
he but put up a few more compara-
tively trifling amounts with his brok-
ers,he Would be frble;to payback what
he had "borrowedras he euphemis-
tically tended it, and have in addi-
tion quite a little fortune of his own
to fall back upon.
All this he could do had he
only time, but now he had to
'tender an immediate account of his
eiewardship, and the result would
bo exposure, ruin, beggary, or even
werse. He strode up the avenue
muttering to himself and indulging
in the Wildcat of fancies. "If Prowl'?
&rice should bo hind to him and
Nugent were to die that night, ,or
be :Woken withsome fatal illness;
if he should be assaulted ou the
etreet—there had been a scare only
recently as to highwaymen who
had assaulted and robbed respect-
able citizens within sight of their
own hoines. He himself like many
another timid man had purchased a
slung' -shot., which fie now fingered
as it lay in his overcoat pocket, for
he knew nothing of' firearms and
was afraid to carry a pistol.
Suppose Nugent should be struck
down 1 But pshaw 1 what was the
use of supposing nonsense of this
sort. In 'half an hour at the
furthest Nugent would have finish-
ed his constitutional, and would be

"Confound it, air. Can't you
look where you're going t" He
had blundered into a stranger as he
was thus communing with himself,
and the force of the impact had
nearly tient them both into the
gutter. Strange looked at the man
ivhose breath he had nearly driven
from his body, and saw that ho was
•
about 150 years of age, tall and thin,
witl. an enormous gray moustache.
His clothes were rough and evident-
ly of cow:try make, and yet there
was the undoubted evidence of a
gentleman in hie bearing and in the
tone of his voice as ho continued
rather more mildly, "Excuse my
abruptness, sir, but you must
acknowledge that it fen% pleaernt
to be doubled up in that fashion."
sure I beg your pardon,"
said Lemuel suavely, "I was in
deep thought and did not see you."
"Well, there's no damage done.
But suppose you make amends by
giving we a light for my cigar.
The one I was smoking has dis-
appeared in the snow and I haven't
a match in my pocket."
"I'm sorry to say I dou't antoke,"
said Lemuel, and was passing en,
when the stranger said
"Hello. W11.0, is the matttn. with
you V'
"I don't understand," began
Leniuel.
You've got something on your
inind, and mean mischief, ' said the
other ; "I know the look by this
time. Take my advice, young man.
Come with me and have a oight-cap,
and theu go quietly to bed; You
will thank me in the inotnin"
"Really, sir, you take a most un
warranted liberty. I beg to wish
you a very good night," replied
Lemuel, with au assumptiou of
offended dignity.
no offence. Good -night
—if you will only mark what 1
say," anti he strode forward vvith. a
free swineing gait that bespoke the
luau of tho plains rather than of the
city.
"I wonder what tut thermal" said
Lemuel to himself att li� contiuued
liis walk up the almost deserted
avenue. But soon his thoughts
were diverted 'into th.4 fernier
channel, and he forgot the inan's
queer words. He had passed the
cath4ral and was nearing the park
when he saw in front of him • a
figure which he recognized. It was
that of his employer, Nugent, who
was stridiug vigorously along,
apparently enjoying the keen air
and his lonely walk, and looking
neither to the right nor to the left.
As he caught sight of him an idea
flashed suddenly into Lemuel's
mind. His fingers twisted nervous-
ly around the weapon in hie pocket
and he glanced nervously around.
Save a stolid policeman who stood
sheltering himself from tho rain
above the Vanderbilt houses,
there was- no one in sight. Then
Lemuel began to slacken his pace
so as to bring it into accord with
that of his employer. Ile did not
wish at once to gain upon hitn,
neither did he wish to fall too far
into his rear. It took him a few
minutes to accommodate • Iris pace,
but by the time Fifty-seventh street
was reached he had caught it and
was walking step for step with• the
figure in front.
"If I can only creep behind him
and stun hint ;" thought Lemuel
wildly, "I need not kill him—only
disable him so as to gain time ;
that's all I want—titne--time," and
he repeated the word monotonously,
as a sort of refrain to his noiseless
footsteps. He had now reached
the open space by the park en-
trance, and for a moment lost eight
of hiegquarry ; then hesaw him
striking across toward the east, and
evidently bent on 'continuing his
walk along the avenue and by the
side of the park. Indeed, he
needed not to see him, for. his
tracks were plainly visible in the
unmarked snow, and Lemuel took a
peculi.opleasure in placing his feet
exactly in the footprints of the
other; at..1 as he did so a verse of
an old(...:i.iatmas carol came to him,
and, wit I> 41 queer smile, he hummed
to himself the familiar strain of
"King IN' itceslas and Hie Page"—
"Tread than in my footsteps, page ;
tread died in thorn boldly."
Then lie began to, quicken his
pace and to? gradually Covering! the
than he looked oh as his prey.
Nearer and nearer he drew and
then stopped, for the figure in front
had stopped too. Nugent had
thrown away his cigar and was
drawing out his match -box prepare -
torp to lighting another. Now is
Lemuol's time. He crept swiftly
up, casting anxious glances around
ao as to assure himself there was no
one in sight. Nugent had struck
one match and it had gone out.
The dark figure behind was now
very close. Another match just
ignites, gives a tantalizing splutter,
and the flame disappears. With
an impatient "Pish" Mr. Nugent
takes off his hat, and holdine, it in
front of him, forms a sort of pent-
house, in which a match could
burn secure from sudden gusts of
wind. Now is Lemuel's final
opportunity.. The man's head was
bare, the light of the match against
the darkness dazzled his eyes, and
at the same time afforded a chance
to Lemuel, who stood behind Nith
uplifted arm to take more certain
aim. A second or two he stood
thus nerving himself, the match
flared up, puff, puff, the cigar had
caught, and exerting all his force
Lemuel let the murderous hall of
lead al1 on the grey head. At
that indent though Nugent re-
placed his hat, no longer necessary
for match -igniting service, too late w

checked cry NItgent fell forward on

took' poesenalon of Lemuel. lie
stepped forward, and standing over
the prostrate figure, lifted hie hand
to strike again, and with mere
deadly effect on the unprotected
head below him. But as he thr

seized from behind in a vise-li
grip and a voice said quietly in his
ear
"I said you meant mischief, and I
wasn't much out uf my reckoning."

Ke baud had been the victim'of a wick-

misunderstandings, and that she was

CHAPTER V.
AUNT JANE TELLS • STORY,
There was an abundance of light-
hearted jollity and gayety at the
assembly ball that night, but pro-
hibly no more thoroughly happy
and satisfied trio than Mrs. Vaude-
veer, Grace nod Jack were to be
found as they sat at a little table in
the little supper room pretending to
eat sundry minute portions of chick-
en salad, but really too full of con-
tentineut to do more than laugh and
talk nonsense.
"I wonder papa has not come yet,"
said Grace, "he promised me faith-
fully that he would look in as early
as he could. Bort I suppose he has
gone on one of those horrid' walks
of his. You know he always com-
plains that he does nut get exercise
enough in New York, and he -sets
off Q11 long tramps at all sorteof uu-
seasonable hours, and there is uever
any counting on his tellirllillg at a

"E _wish he would come,: said
Jack, with a laugh. "1 want tobe
pia out of my misery .at once What
do you think he'll say w lieu • I at II
hitu 1 want to steal his daughter 1"
•
"Poor papa. I'm sure he'll. be
sorry to lose me, but I think he is
fund of you in his way, Jack."
"Well, perhaps in his way he is,"
said Jack, "hut to tell you the trutll
I am rather inclined to funk the
coming interview,"
"Now," broke in Aunt Jane, "if
I must tell you young people what
I had tnuch better keep to myself, I
don't think you need worry your-
selvea.a hit about what Mr. Nugent
will pay. Mr. Nugent is a man of
most excellent common sense, and
though he may be inclined to say
hard things about yon, sir, because
you insist on doing nothing or next
to nothing instead of—going into
business, he will welcome any
nephew of mine into his family. To
tell you the truth, he and I have
talkei over this before now, for
though we aro old we arm not blind,
and we foresaw: very clearly what
was coming and -had resigned our-
selves to the 'inevitable." 'At this
Jack and Grace looked amazingly
surprised, and the former blushed
very prettily.
Grace was to sleep that night at
Mrs. Vanderveer's• house, aud so
when the trio had finished their
supper and still Mr. Nugent did
not appear, the old lady declared
that she was too tired to remain any
longer, and that Grace had much
better come at onee, so Jack care-
fully packed them into the broug-
ham and accepted his aunt's invita-
tion to squeeze in with them and
have a cup of bouillon her butler
always had waiting for her when
she arrived from any "function,',
before he should turd into hie own
cheerless bachelor quarters. Jack
was not averse to the proposition.
-
for it gave him a few minutes more
with the object of hie affections, and,
though the brougham was much too
small to comfortably receive this
addition to its occupants, he bravely
bore all resulting discomfort in view
of the.fact that be could hold a little
warm hand in his and whisper into
a pink little ear certain scraps of
nonsense, which proceeding Ant
Jane strained her conscience some-
what by affecting not to observe.
When they had reached the din. -'y

ed in delicate old china cups whii.11
had belonged to Jack's great-grand-
mother, and Grace and Jack, trying
hard to look as though they liked
the potion, Aunt Jane, who had
been looking uncommonly serious,
broke silence by observing :
"You look the image of your
father, my dear," and she sighed
somewhat deeply.
"I hope that isn't what makes you
look so solemn, Aunt Jane ? '
"No, dear, no, I was thinking of
two young people like you I once
knew ; and as there is a moral to be
drawn from their story I think I'll
tell it to you. It was a great many
years ago, when I never thought I
would be the aunt of a great big
fellow like you, Jack—that a dear
friend of mine married a girl aimed
as pretty and quite as good as Grace,
dear. We all thought when they
were married 00 two people ever
had such bright proepects of happi-
ness as lay before this couple, and
some of us may have envied them a
little bit. But vre were mistaken.
Out of the clear sky came a thunder-
clap and nne day the husband—I've
tald,you he Was my very dear friend
—came to me and told` me that his

it, was _my halter's story
you have been telling us," said
Jack, who was strangely moved.
" Yes, my dear. That is yuur
father's story,"
"And you Dever heard from
him 1"
" Never, from that day to this.
He must have died long ago. But
where, or when, or how none of us
can tell, and perhaps,you will never
know till yon meet him anti your
poor mother iu heaven."
Aunt Jane's story, the delivery
of which evidently caused her much
pain, effectually dampened the high
_spirits of her nephew and Miss
Nugent, and alter promising to call
on Mr. Nugent, at his office early
the following morning Jack left the
house and walked thoughtfully
down the avenue towards Washing,.
ton Square. At the cotner of Clin-
ton place his attention was attracted
by two men who were rapidly walk-
ing eastward Iown' that shabby -gen-
teel street a:, a rapid pace. One of
them Jack thought he recognized.
"I'll be shot if that ain't Strange,"
said tO himself. "I wonder what
he's doing down here at this time
of night, and I wonder where he
picked up that old chap with him.
He looks like a cross between a
three card monte man and a cowboy.
However, it's none of my business
he's nothing to me, and I am
nothing to him." And he went on
towards his roma iu the old Uni-
versity building.
