ou must detain - ine no longer, Mr.
Mivart. if it is sour intention to indulge
iu abuse of my flatter. Ah, Tom !I thought
you a more manly fellow than thus to drive
a defenceless woman to the wall. Think of
it. Are my lines laid in places so very
much pleasanter than sours? Do you
have to smart under the lash of cruel
words directed at him who is most dear,
feeling the while that you are powerless to
resent them? Could you hear your lover's
name associated with the names of odious,
bad men, and he expected to look uncon
cerned without a page? And, finally, be
ing a woman, with no chance to escape
from petty persecutions, I become so bold
as to fly clandestinely to the man who is
the cause of my trouble, and I am welcom
ed with an uugeuerous addition of what
has bccorne a part of my daily ?It is
v..!ry delightful :"
'..f hen why submit to it; why not leave
a home fraught with distress, to be wel
comed to a humbler, in which a true heart
will make up by its devotion, the comforts
that are relinquished.? But, no, the proud
Miss Stevens would not compromise her
self by flying with that poor wretch, Tom
Mivart. It would be such bad taste, you
know. Bah ! Lucy, I ant tempted to think
your affection is 'like sunbeams—pretty,
but easily dissipabQd!"
"Enough! if you will know—if you
will insist in drarging the truth from me
—then hear. Tow Milvart, that you are
suspected of being a thief, or, at least, the
associate of thie yes !"
"My God! v ho, dare Eay so ? I—"
"No threats, please. Answer a few sim
ple questions. lb you know one Jack
Thorn ?"
"Ve‘A, but--"
"We'll omit the 'buts.' Y,,u live been
seen. in his epuipany too frequently to es
cape contamination. Bo you know that
the town is aware of the intimacy? Please
explain your connection with this fellow."
••I can't."
'Oh. you cannot !"
"No, but from motives which I must
- nut tell—at least, at present."
"Indeed!! But you think it peculiar
that the proud (?) Miss Stevens does not
bestow her hand on a—Oh, Tom ! I cannot
—cannot say it ! Tell me that it is a hor
rid dream."
"Thorn is my friend, Lucy, and if you
have not sufficient confidence irr mo to - be
lieve—ay, know—that I am not what you
say I am, then the sooner we part the bet
ter. I trust Miss Stevens will find some
honorable (!) object on which to bestow
her moneyed affections. Please consider
that all this is at an end between us. Good
evening."
"Tom 1" I cried, but in vain. lie had
turned on his heel, and was striding rap•
idly in the direction of the town, while I
was left alone with the bitter reflection
that, henceforth, life - would be a lone,
dreary blank. My brain seemed on fire;
I wished myself dead--anywhere—any

T 17.:uni to be :? great relief to my
sare 7 ragr_4ll feelings. Our sex would llsre

eseape v:zlve. A brief rest per
initte(i tle. to re:iume the train of tliought
interrupted by my emotions. I consider
ed my lire bli , A hted, and was soon reduced
to a fram!r of mind that would have tam
rered with prussic acid on slight provoca
tion.
z:._.~...:~
is custliest
Tier, Mivart had been my playmate as
long as I could remember; we had been
inseparable, and planned ail of our mis
chievons forays in concert. Naturally,
cur youthful fancy—because of constant
association, perhapl—had grown in ardent
affection as we matured. My father and
old Mr. Mivart were cronies. and when
Torn's fath,:r died he transferrod his friend-
Alp to the boy's widowed mother. Time
rrew apace; and from a city clerk in mod
crate circumstances my father bloomed
into a capitalist. This change in his po
sition modified his bearing towards his old
friends. Mrs. Mtvart was keenly sensitive
of the change, and, like the sensitive plant,
felt the adverse influence to such an extent
teat her friendly visits ceased in time,
leaving Tom the only surviving olive
branch. He took mines as if he was am
iceberg. and to the manner bAni.
;ye died to WIU
n. boy ?
Our intimacy caused my good lather
treat annoyance, as waxing richer, he be
u•an to have ambitious views concerning
the marriage of his only daughter and heir.
The storm burst at last, and Tom was
denied admittance to the house; while I
received a strict command to terminate the
intimacy. The chains that can part lovers
have yet to be forged. I believe, and the
result was, our love sought ways that were
dark, but none the less successful.
My father became cognizant of this,
and, preceiving the futility of breaking up
the attachment of years by merely parent
al commands, resorted to wiles that, I blush
to confess, did little credit to his hand or
heart. No cc:maion was lost to expatiate
on the bad character of my lover, and, as
the constant drip of water finally wears
away a store, I became imbued with this
idea that my darling was really vicious.
Womanlike, this endeared him the more
to me in one sense, yet, at the same time,
the feeling constantly gained ground that
he was not an eligible companion for a
rood girl, and insensibly colored my
thoughts concerning him. My father was
very clever hi all this business, as the
sequel will prove. I had no idea, however,
of the wheels within wheels that were
noisely revolving to my detriment. As
the reader has seen, my last interview with
Tom ended in a mis.und-2rstanding, on, ac-
count of my blurting out the waspish in
sult that had ben bred of the constant
detraction it was toy daily portion to Lear.
, My bitter retleeti,.ns were short by my
maid announcing that the dinner was wait
ing nay pres , nice, and, hurl ied;y deseeading,
I met toy rather, who, fr,nn appearance,

"Papi," I begun, have nit affairs at the
bank g , _ine well to day ?"
"So well, my daughter," he rttorted,
"that I am seriously considerinz the pro
priety of adopting bank rules fir the guid
ance of my household. I think the rule
of closinir at three epecially admirable in
its workings when applied to inanimate
or animate chattels. Daughters, for in
stance, if deposited as collateral, child not
leave the house for nocturnal rambles with
objectionable companions."
How he had learned of my latest escape,
I wondered, but strove to repress any re
flection of my thoughts in my face..
"Au excellent idea," I laughingly re
plied. "It would have a beneficial effect
on the servants, and materially linplify
my duties in the household 1"
"Yes, and abroad," he was quick to re
tort.
'•I see by the papers," I resumed, non
chalantly, "that the community is disturb
ed by the reports of recent bank robberies.
Do you anticipate any trouble ?"
"None, except of a family nature. Bad
associations may lead to almost any dis
graceful and ruinous complications," with
a penetrating glance in my direction.

After sayinsr, which, I was siezed with
cowardly misgivings because of my bold
ness, and the dinner was ended in gloomy
silence.
I left him to the enjoyment of his cigar
and sherry, and again retired to my room,
where dismissing the service of my maid,
I unlocked a cabinet and began re reading
the many missives that in every line
breathed Tum's undying love.
How long I was thus employed I know
not, when, suddenly, the gas was exting
guiehed. I arose, and, iu alarm, groped
my way to the door, with the idea of as
certaining the cause of so unusual an oc
currence.'
Stepping noiselessly into the hall, I stood
fvr a moment listening intently. At first I
heard nothing, and was on the point of re
tracing my steps, half ashamed of my fool
ish timidity, when the sound of muffled
footsteps and a low murmur of voices
came from the direction of the dining
room.
It flashed upon me at once that robbery,
and perhaps murder, was afloat, for a mo
ment I stood paralyzed with terror. Then
my self-possession returned, and I deter
mined to alarm the household, or at least
to reach my father's room, and warn him
of his peril.
Breathlessly, and with cautious step., I
stole silently down the hall, and had al
most reached my father's door, when sud
denly I was seized with a grasp of iron,
and a hand pressed tizhtiv over my mouth
before I could utter the slightest sound.
Then my captor hissed in my ear a
hoarse whisper :
"If yer try to escape, miss, or make a
bit. of noise, I'll throttle ye in a minute.
Walk along ahead o' me, and step easy."
Trembling from bead to foot, I obeyed,
and we passed along the hall and slowly
descended the stair.
Entering the library led by the ruffian,
who had never relaxed his hold of my
arm, I found it occupied by two men,
roughly dressed, and having their faces
concealed by black crape masks.
The robbers bad collected a few articles,
of value, chiefly silver plate from the din-
ii.

ing room sideboard, and were now busily
engaged in trying to force open the great
safe built in the rear wall. My cu4odisn,
who was disgui,ed like his comrades, now
forced me to seat myself in a large chair.
to which he tied me with a stout cord.
Taking from Lis pocket a curiously soap
ed piece of wood, he forccd it rudely into
my mouth, and fastened it firmly in posi
tion with a handkerchief. I was then ju:t
able to breath, but could not have uttered
a sound had my life depended on it.
The robber then said, menacingly :_
"Now little lady, as long as you don't
try to !.-et or wake any alarm, you
shan't be hat cue.l, l .i.a. :;'ton do we'll choke
the life cut of you in to time."
Then he turned to as.zist his confeder
ates at their work upon the sate.
Mat coy feelin, were during these
dreadful moments, whieh seemed hours is
duration, is easier imagined than describ
ed. Only one thought sustained me, and
saved me from swooning with terror, and
that was that I must control myself, and
be ready to take advantage of any happy
accident that might enable me to frustrate
the dcsitis of these villains.
For what seemed an interminable time,
but was really only a few minutes the bur
glars labored unsueces:_ , fulfy at the safe.—
It was evident th,tt they were ignorant of
the combination, and unprovided with the
tools necessary to fore.:: a door of such
strength.
With an oath the leader desisted from
the ft ttitlegs tack, motioning to his com
rades to do the same, and turned to me
Fad Intl _ _
"Was that yes father's room you were
strikin' out for when I nabbed you miss?"
In-linctively I nodded my head affirma
Lively.
"I thought so," said the ruffian; " 'tain't
no use. boys, tryin' to bust the safe with
the tools we've got, but the old man can
open- it for us 'thout no trouble, so git yer
persuaders ready, and we'll tackle him
We can leave the gal here. She's safe
enough."
So s tying, the burly villain produced a
revolver, and taking his bull's eye lantern
from the table, led the way cautiously up
stairs. The door was closed on me, and I
was left in silence acd darkness alone.
A thrill of horror ran over me as I rea •
lized that they were about to seize my
father, and cumpel him to open the safe,
for I knew him too well to suppose that
be would tamely submit without a strug
gle., and a struggle with these desperate
men he had to contend with meant instant
death. This flashed through my mind in
a second, and I instinctively struggled
desperately to free myself.
The imminence of danger pave me un
natural strength, and my lashings snapped
and set me free. Rising to my feet 1
steadied myself for a moment and listened.
Not a sound reached my eats; evidently
the burglars had not yet entereliny fah
el.'s room.
Tearing the gag from my mouth, which
was cut and bleeding, I glided noiselesS!y
across the room, ept , ned one of the low
French windows, and leaped out urn the
terrace beneath.
I rushed across the lawn, and dashed
headlong through the shrubbery toward
the toad. On reaching it, I still kept on
at the same rapid pace, and ran several
hundred yards before I realized where I
was or what I was trying to do. Then I
stopped for a moment bewildered and half
fainting with fright and fatigue. But as
my father's peril returned to my thoughts,
I tore en again, more madly than before,
but now I knew where I was going. I
would summon Tom ! He would save my
father from those dreadful men ) . Forth.
nately, my first wild rush had carried me
toward the little building which Tom oc
cupied as office and sleeping room, and a
few moments sufficed to bring me panting
to his door.
Calling in a voice almost unrecognizable
from terror and exhaustion, "Tom, Tom,
save my father." I beat frantically upon
the door with my clenched hands, and
then, as the noise within told me that I
had aroused him, and his quick step came
toward the door, overtaxed nature gave
way, and I sank fainting to the ground.
CHAPTER. 11.-lIIS SIDE.
Jack Thorn had been the closest friend
of my boyhood, and so great seemed our
natural love and confidence to our school
mates, that they frequently dubbed us the
modern Damon and Pythias. Even :in
those halcyon days, however, Jack de
veloped traits of character that were a sure
index of his future career.
Ile was not truthful, consequently not
honest, and although jovial and the best of
companions, he rarely failed to lead his
friends into trouble if he once gained the
ascendency.
I early fell a victim to his fascinations,
and emulated his pernicious example in a
manner that was more faithful than whole•
80111 e.
Our school and college days passed
pleasantly enough, with only a few scrapes,
not more setious, perhaps, than those of
our fellow students ; but even here Jack's
peculiar gifts showed to advantage, as I
was always the sufferer in our confederated
mischief. He escaped by subterfuge and
misrepresentation that put the burden of
game on my shoulders. Yet he could al
ways explain to my satisfaction how it was
that my bad luck made me the victim.
Yes, there it was. My evil destiny con
stantly interposed to destroy my happi
ness, and, being told so often that luck
was at fault, I finally became a believer in
the thing myself. The effect of bad as
sociations seems to follow one indefinitely ;
and although our paths diverged soon after
we left college, Jack would occasionally
cross my way, and the consequences were
invariably fraught with mischief to me.
I had, as I thought, reason to suspect he
envied me Lucy's love.
My father's death threw me on my own
resources, but, never having worked for
my daily bread, I was at a loss where to
seek employment.
Lucy's father gave me a position until
be deemed it prudent to forbid me the
house Becoming desperate at the turn
my love and business affairs had taken, I
was ripe for any desperate enterprise, when
Jack Thorn, as the astronomers would say,
entered my orbit, and forthwith unfolded
a plan by which I was to make a great
sum of money, with but trifling exertion.
The details of the plan he - would not di
vulge, but requested me to make certain
inquiries concerning the Stevens national
bank, said inquiries beino• '
of a nature that
roused my suspicions and inclined me to
the belief that some nefarious enterprise
was at the bottom of Jack's unwonted elu
tion. I promised to take the matter into
consideration, but the more I thought
about it the more averse I became to the
idea, and the greater grew my necessities.
Law business was absolutely at a stand-
still. I did not know until later that lack
of clients was due to the machinations of .
my active enemy, Lacy's father.
After toy interview with It, r, in

The thing will be Evade as easy and as

••Well, I'll think about it,"' I said, ris
ing ; "and now I must ask you to excuse
me fur I have an eng,agement."
"All right, old fellow !" ha replied, add
ing, as he passed out, "I think you will
come round, and then who knows—Lucy,
bridesmaids, etc.. eh ?"
• I cjuld have throtticd him for Lis im
pertinence, but restrained my anger, and,
establishing myself comfortably iu a large
easy chair, strove in vain to my min
on "Story on Contracts."
It, was useless. My thoughts constantly
t everted to the cpnversation,and the scheme
began to exert a dangerous fascination
over me. I got into a fever of excitement
about it and paced the floor for hours try
ing to still the pleadings of my conscience
and reason myself into the belief that I
might accept Jack's proposition without
loss of self-respect or honor.
Suddenly my trcrAbled reflections were
broken in up ,n by hearine , ° my name called
faintly in a voice all too familiar to my
ears.
I ran quickly to the door and beheld
Lucy, half fainting from fright and ex.
haustion, lying prostrate upon the door
step.
To raise her in my arms and carry her
into the office was the work of a moment ;
and, hastily grasping a flask from the
table, I made her drink a little brandy,
which soon brought back the color to her
cheeks and the fire to her eyes, and gave
her strength to tell me the cause of
her sudden appearance at my bachelor
den.
Ia bss than five mioutei we were on
our way back to the Stevens mansion, I
having taken the precaution to arm my
self with a revolver, and carrying a stout
walking stick.
Traveling at a rate of speed that ren
dered conversation quite impossible, we
quickly traversel the distance, and climb
ing the low railing, made our way cau
tiously through the shrubbery until we
came out upon the lawn, directly under
the library windows. A dim light shown
through the open casement and we heard .
a murmur of voices, but we could not dis
tinguish what was said.
Cautioning Lucy to remain concealed in
the shrubbery, and freeing myself from
her detaining arm as she sought to warn
to be ca;eful, I crept up t.,) one of the
vindows and peered through the slats of
tie closed blinds. The sight I saw there
nerved tne for the coming strucrgle.
Seated in a large chair was Mr. Stevens,
securely bound, and standing over him, io
menacing attitudes, were the three thieves,
the leader holding a glittering knife against
the old man's throat while he thus ad
dressed him:
"Come, old man, we ain't got no more
time for arguyfyin' ; give us that combina
tion or yer a dead man ! Out with it, or
we'll have to smash ye."
"I will not," was the firm reply.
The robber raised some weapon, there
was a dull thud and a groan, and then I
waited no longer, but bursting open
the shutter, sprang suddenly into the
room. _ _
The moment I landed on the floor I
opened fire with my revolver, and one of
the villains fell at the first shot. The
others, at first taken by surprise, quickly
recovered their self- possession, and draw
ing their pistols, returned my fire. Shot
succeeded shot, and the room was filled
with the blue, sulphurous smoke.
As I fired my last, shot at random one
of the robbers grappled with me, and we
came to the floor tightly locked in each
other's grasp, and continued the strug
gle.
At this instant, shouts, a pistol shot and
de scream of women resounded upon the
air, and halt' a dozen of the servants burst
into the room, armed with a miseellaneJus
assortment of weapons that would have
put Falstaff's body guard to blush.
I had just succeeded in stunning my
antagonist with a well directed blow and
sprang to my feet to find one burglar lying
dead before the safe doors, with poor Mr.
Stevens stretched beside him insensible,
while dismal groans proceeding from the
hall indicated the whereabouts of the
ruffian, who, endeavoring to escape by the
front door, had afforded the gardener !an
opportunity to display his marksman
ship.
As the servants tenderly raised Mr.
Stevens to a sofa, I took the precaution to
secure my burglar, who began to show
symptoms of reviving animation, and then
tearing the crape mask from his face, I
beheld—Jack Thorn ! _ _
"My side" is soon told. Jack was rec
ognized by Mr. Stevens, and the culprit
confessed that he had played double with
the old gentleman, under the pretext of
compromising me so that any further
thought of gaining Lucy would be futile,
for which he was to be paid roundly; he
had planned and put into execution this
diabolical scheme, and been trapped.
Mr. Stevens' injuries eventually proved
fatal ! but he lived long enough to ask my
forgivenesS, and give his approval when
Lucy became Mrs. Mivart.
My first case was the p!easing duty of
assisting the State's attorney to send Thorn
to the penitentiary, where he now is.
Lucy, who is looking over my shoulder,
suggests that perhaps any further details
of "my side" of the story might be more
interesting to our family circle than to the
reader; but I must add that we have con
cluded not to name the youngster Jack
Thorn, at any rate.

It is well-ku•own that there are many evidences of an
ancient occupation of this continent, by a people whose
history has ;i:ways be.•u enveloped in great mystery.
New !acts are ho a ever, constantly coming to light which
thmw,di strange and sometimes mysterious are calculated
to reveal something of the prehistoric condition of Ameri

east t:i examine th" ruins of Nineveh and Babylon and in
these barbsl cities, Bed many interesting confirmations
of history ; they also traverse the frozen regions of the

that this obscure history of our country, shall be made
known and the problem of man be ultimately solved.
