Jack felt as it' be had been struok

coarse -phrased refusal.
"But, Mr. Nugent,—" he begau.

failure came a fresh demand upon
his. "partner" Nugent for funds, a
demand which was perforce com-
plied with. Under the nervous
strain Nugent became visibly aged
and worn. From her childhood,

brusque and stern, but now, even
to her, he was often snappish and

• "H'inin," snarled Lemuel, "you'd

"Certainly. But you see I don't
dare," replied Nugent.
Jack instead of descending to the
, street when he left the office, stepped
on the elevator and was whirled up
• to the seventh story of the 'huge
building. Here he knocked at a
door marked No. 168, but bearin;;
no other sign, and when he heard a
deep voice roar "Come id" he turned
the handle and found himself in a
lyrge but plainly furnished apart-
ment, in which the owner of the
voice, who was none other than
Harbld Proudfoot, was aitting scrib-
bling
for dear life at a table littered
withbooks and papers.
It was a whim of Proudfoot'e that
a newspaper min should not live
too far form the centre of his work
And as he eaid be never knew when
he might be wanted in the .office he
he had taken a couple of rooms at
the top of this tall office building,
furnished one as a bedroom, the
other as st study,and' here he spent a
majority hf the hours which he did
not, devote to actual office work.
He went on writing, as though no
one were present, for five minutes
after Jack's entrance, and then,
throwing down his pen, turned to
his friend and said."What's wrongl'
In as few a wards as possible Hous-
ton explained the position of affairs
to him, and ended by asking his
advice. '
"You laughed at me the night
before last," growled Proudfoot,
"when I said your mine -owning
friend had put his foot into it some
titno, and that his clerk was a ras-
cal, but perhaps I was right after
all."
"What makes you think that?"
"Why, any one with a grain of
common sense would see that old
Nugent has in some way put him-
self in Strange's power, and if you
want to marry Mise Nugent I advise
you to put youseelf on equal terms
with your rival by finding out Nu -
gent's secret."

It did not take Jack long to
reach the Nugent house on the
receipt of this, and for the first
time since the memorable interview
with David Nugent ho crossed the
threshold of his -house. While
waiting for Grace to come down he
wondered, as he had been wonder-
ing ever since he received the note,
what ' could have happened of
sufficient importance to cause her to
ask him to visit the house in de-
fiance of her father's wishes. When
she entered the room, pale and
with deep black rings beneath her
eyes, he knew something terrible
h td happened, and started forward
to fold her iu his arms.
."No, Jack," she said in a
tone, "no. Don't kiss me.
not worthy of your kisses."
"Good God, Grace What
-fou mean 1" ,
That I am false to you, Jack. I
am a bad, bad girl.".
"Don't talk nonsense like that,
Grace," interrupted Jack, who
began to think that his sweetheart
had taken leave of her senses for
the momett.
"But I am, Jack dear—I have
promised dad to—to—to marry Mr.
Strange," and the coolness which
she had boasted to herself sha would
show disappeared in a flood of
tears.
"Marry old Strange—Oh, come
now, Grace—you're joking."
"I'ni not j -j -joking. Dad said it
meant r -r -ruin and worse, and he

room, which had been the scene of
Lemuel's first attack on Ntigent's

of form than anything else.
CHAPTER X.
MB. NUGENT GIVES WAY.
Tho next few months passed with
out materially altering the condition
of affairs, though as far as Jack
was concerned he found the situa-
tion far more bearable than he
imagined would be the case when
Nugent with such brutal frankness;
forbid hire the how°. Grace in
fact had risen to the occasion. She
absolutely refused: to give her
father the assurance he demanded
that she would not meet Jack. "Of
course," she said, "yon can prevent
him coining to see me here, but I
shall see him, where and when I
can outside this house. We are in
the nineteenth century now, Dad,

"No. What good Would it belie
done me to know 1 I suppose the
old scoundrel has beeu speculating,
and the market has gone the wrong
way."
"Well, Jack, I always thought
you were an 585," was the eoneola-
tory response, "and now I would
gamble my last week's salary on it:"
"That's like you, Harold: A
follow coulee to you for serious
advice and yon sit there chucking
out abusive remarks, which are in
very bad taste, lot me tell you."'
"Tut, tnt, Jack, don't get on the

dowu from the window sill, and
replacing the in with his elbows ;
leaned his chiu 40 his two hands
and stared out through the dusk,
which was rapidly becoming dark-
ness, at the tall, ghostly-lookims,
building over the way, "Shall I
light the gas 1" asked Jack after a
pause. "You're deuced cheerful
company, of course, but I'm bound
to say a little light would empha-
size the uproarious merriment of
your conversation."
"Jack," said Proudfoot abruptly,
"don't hurt yourself in trying to be
funny, but tell me something. Do
you know any friend of Mr.
Nugent's who is tall, thin, with a
moustache, and long gray hair, and
who wears a brood -brimmed som-

"And so you mean to say that
because your father imagines that
that beast of a Strange can help
him out of his difficulties, whatever
they may be, you are to bo sacri-
ficed 1"
"C -c -calling Mr. Strange a
a b b -beast will do no good. I
have to marry hina, sad that is what
is breaking my heart."
"But my dear Grace, don't you
think that I have something to say
in the matter. I have, at any rate,
and I say that you are not going to
marry this miserable fellow."
"Oh, Jack, don't you understandl
It's to cave poor old Dad."
And this was with slight varia-
tions, the sum of Grace's conversa-
tion. Jack argued with her, scold-
ed her, went on hie knees to her,
all to no purpose. She had made
up her mind, she said, that it was
her duty to do as her father wished;
and duty, in Grace Nugent's eyes,
was a don of divinity to which she
constantly bowed the head. Then
Jack, as was natural, grew angry
and reproached het for her heart-
lessness, to which she meekly assen-
ted, and finally he flung himself
out of the house, leaving her, like a
modern Niobe, all tears, lint tears
and recriminations do not help
much in matters of this sort, and so
Jack concluded when such sage
conclusions were of no avail. He
went straight from Grace's presence
to hie aunt's house, but the poor
old lady did not do much to soothe
him. She opened the vials af her
wrath on Grace, and though Jack
persuaded himself that he was
angry with his sweetheart himself,
he would not allow any one elee to
bo so, and the consequence of Aunt
Jane's well -meant effort to please

dered the more irritating by hie
retention of hie old obsequious and
fawning tone. "But never mind
that statement. I have something
of more importance to epoak to you
about."
"Go on," said Nugent wearily.
"You may remember that on the
day when you wore kind enough to
take me into partnership, and give
other tokens of your confidence in
me," and Lemuel grinned, "I ven-
tured to suggest that you should
use your influence with Miss Grace,
and try and convince her that the
dearest wish of your life is to see
me your son -in law."
"I told you what I'd do and I
have done it," replied Nugent
sullenly, "I have forbid young
Houston to visit her and what
more can I do ?"

Saunders of Guelph, George Har-
wood charged Isaac Dyson with
intent to do bodily harm. Both
the patties concerned are yoing
meu living on the 2nd line of Era -
those. It would appear that as the
result of a quarrel two years ago,
some say over a girl, there has been
a grudge between the two ever since
and that Dyson had expressed his
intention of getting even with the
other. Last Friday night furnished
the opportunit!, and while Har-
wood and a young lady were dr i vi,ng
along his rig was stopped by Dyson
and two friends, whom he did not
recognize. One held his horse
while the other went on the left
side of his buggy and Dyson on the
right side. The girl jumped from
the buggy and got out of the way.
Harwood says Dyson hit him a
vicious blow on the head with the
whipstock, breaking it and stunning
him. Ile then abused him brutally
as his face, head and hands even
now boar witness, arid then left
him. Harwood's brother corrobor
atod bis story as to his treatment,
hia face being.covered with bruises
and blood when ho reached home.
The magistrate committed Dyson to
stand his trial at the next court of
competent jurisdiction. He accep-
ted bail for his appearance, himself
in $600 and two sureties $500 each,
which was furnished.
