One salient fact, capable of proof, stood out preeminent from the mass of innuendo. It was stated that Bullion, the college policeman, had ‘seen â€" Professor Tancredi_ escorting his mysterious visitor from his room at midnight. Very well, then; she !\t‘(lll]ll go to the one reputable eyeâ€" witnecs, and be relieved at least :rlum the uncertainty that was conâ€" suming her. | 1 was Friday, the seventh of July. and Jake, on meeting his partner, Joe, that morning, had remarked ’hupel’ully that there were sevens (enough in the date to more than make up for "the hoodo0 of the ‘day." The detectives were too pracâ€" tical of mind to reflect that what would beâ€"good luck for them might be bad luck for the rest of humanity, o# to be abashed by the slight disâ€" ’criminatlon It they had reflected; so, they greeted it as a corroborative ‘omen when Millicent, heavily veiled ‘and dreceed in black, stole from the |sme-door of her home, and hurried ‘lhrouqh byâ€"ways to the railway staâ€" tion. I must endure the shrugs and pity of he knowing? Oh, father, 1 do beâ€" lieve in you, [ do, I do; but I cannot, I cannot believe in him when 1 know he is hiding something from me. , What right had he to put himself in such a position that he could not ‘abide by the truth without fear or .l'avor; what right had he, having once assumed this position, to dare ,bring under the cloud of its mys: ‘teries a young girl whom, if he |loved, it was his first duty to shield? â€"~not even flies.

J "No; ho has been justifying himâ€" self." l "In what way; by explanation*" "By simple denial." | "That is not enough for me," Milâ€" licent protested. "My husband must be above suspicion." t "It should be enough for me," | "It should be enough for you, my child," replied Phineas; "when your | tather, through that divination of ‘truth and falsity which you know is | his recompense for affliction, asâ€" sures you that this young man asâ€" !serls the truth." â€" The campus ‘bore the neglected, deserted air of vacation, though many of the faculty and some of the special students still lingered in the cool and cozy dormitories. The otly sign of life on the broad exâ€" pense of greenâ€"and that a sign of still lifeâ€"was a rotund form in a suit of blue, bedecked by gilt butâ€" tuns, reclining in the shade of a great elm, too comfortably Inert, one might judge, to ever catch anything "The Gov. will attend to that, all tight," added J6e; "Once we have located of him and reported on him, we‘ve done our biz." + "She‘s going to Carteret, Joe, said Jake, after he had stood juss behind the young girl in the line i fromt of the ticketâ€"office. "Well, that isn‘t much of a trip,‘ replied Joe, "there‘ll have to .be ex tradition papers iseued." When the train reached Carteret, Millicent took a streetâ€"car for the college buildings. She noticed that two men whom she had seen in the Hamlin station were still her fellowâ€" passengers; but she did not attriâ€" bute their presence to any interest in herself. They alighed when che did; but remained gazing wonderâ€" ingly about from the sidewalk, after the immemorial custom of tourists, while she passed through the colâ€" legeâ€"gate. 1 cannot believe in him under such circumstances; for trust between a man and woman, to be complete and enduring. must be reciprocal. Oh, ‘Then I must bow before him and admit that I was in the wrong; then ‘happy. She took long walks until the detectives were inclined to think that she was aware of their esâ€" plonage and was tormenting them; but this was only an evidence of her mental distress. She was so proud Of herself, and her own innate free dom from the dross and muck of the worid; she had been so proud of Tancredi, and so strong in the faith that he, too, was a creature of light, unblighted and unblightable!‘ The very thought that vulgar intrigue had dared toucit himâ€"had dared ‘cast is shadow across her pathâ€" ‘ was intolerable; and, though her heart kept whispering that she ‘ought to trust the one she loved, her indignation retorted that the one she loved could have no need for being trusted. "Has he been complaining to you*" the girl retorted, her pride all up in arms. "How manly!" Phineas Twigg increased this inâ€" ner couflict by wellâ€"meant Intervenâ€" tion. "I am sorry to learn, my dear," be said, One day, "of your estrange ment from my friend, Tancredi." _ The Case ' ‘"Well, goodâ€"by to the ten Cousand," cighed Jake; "we‘ve wasted all our ‘uhunres in running down a mare‘s nest." "That‘s true, of course," agreed Joe. "But if we pass right through to the yard, and stand in one of the deep windowâ€"recesses at the further end, we can see him when he takes a train, and jump aboard the next car." _ "Yes, and give it to us straight," added Jake, coming up on the other wide," "if you ever expect any favors over in our bailiwick." After Bullion had faithfully ful "Speakin‘ of the devilâ€"~ cried Jake suddenly, as the car dashed by a dingy man on the corner, who had just come out of a bookâ€"store, with an agent‘s portfolio under his arm, and a small boy with a package and a valise hurrying after. ‘‘Work, nothing! If he wasn‘t on a job, he would be setting in a saâ€" loon, waiting for another, the same as we‘d be. Oh. no; he‘s still after Paul Breen, all right; and it looks as if he was beginning to know how to find him." "On the bookâ€"agent‘s lay, you think?" Joe suggested. "Knowing of the community ‘but not the spot, and going from house to house to find out, hey ?" "Bure." ‘‘Then we‘re in luck, after all. All we‘ve got to do is to follow him until we learn what he‘s up against, and then go him two betterâ€"" "Now, Bullion, old man," ecried Joe, springing out from behind the gateâ€"post, "just tell us what this is all about." filled his obligations to his fellowâ€" craftsmen from the adjoining State, Joe and Jake took the streetâ€"car for the station in dejected mood. "Yes, and with nothin‘ either," groaned Joe. "An‘ he wage his tail," finished Joe. "There‘s Naylor hisself, bound tor the station the same as we be. Now, you don‘t suppse he‘s really working, do you?"‘ "But, if he catches a sight of us in the station, the Jig is up." "L will, ob, I will," replied Milliâ€" cent, as hbeartbroken, and Ooblivious to her surroundings, she passed down the street. Millicent was dumfounded by these revelations. Not only had her worst forebodings been more than verified, but some one, out of pity for her, was seeking to learn all the facts. Shrinking within herself, as i‘ from a shame which her own mad actions had brought close upon her, she sufâ€" fered the policemar to lead her to the collegeâ€"gate. "Now you go right home, like a good girl won‘t you?" he warned, as he again saluted aborâ€" tively. _ ‘‘Oh, I know a thing Or two," conâ€" tinued the gratified Bullion. "If I should call you Miss Katie, now, I wquldn‘t miss my guess, would I? And supposin‘ l added a Brown to it, how clus‘ would I be comin‘ to the truth, hey ?" "And there‘s a Miss Katie Brown in it, too?" "You know there is, my child; so be good and go home, and never, never, think of the professor again." "But do you say that some one in my interest," Millicent whispered, "has found out all about thisâ€"this dreadful creature in his room, and the midnight drive, and all?" Everything, Mum, as well as I could tell it myselfâ€"and better, mebbe, for I seen him gitting busy about town this very day." _ "Some truth in ‘em?

She saw the dingy man, who had tried to steal Constance‘s satchel, and who had looked so venomously at herself when she had tossed away his grimy card, boarding a train, by the side of which the conductor was impaâ€" tiently waving. Yes, that was the wretch‘s â€" nameâ€"Neylorâ€"a . private detective ageneyâ€"beyond a doubt! She saw the two men, whom she had seen first in the Hamlin station, then on the train to Carteret, and then on the car to college, glide around the rear Of the train, and enâ€" ter the car, next to Naylor‘s, from the further side.

"Naylor has got too much beef on his bones to be a book agent in dead earnest. Why, that‘s next door to Potter‘s Field.
