At noon Connery came to his door, and behind Connery, Eaton saw Har riet Santoine and Avery. Eaton Jumped up, and as he saw the girl's pale face, the color left his own. “Miss Santolne has asked to speak to you," Connery announced ; and he admitted Harrlet Santoine and Avery, and himself remaining outside in the aisle, closed the door upon them. “How Is your father? Eaton asked the girl, “He seems Just the same: at least, I can’t see any change, Mr. Eaton.” “Can Doetor Sinclair see any differ. ence?’ Eaton asked, “Doctor Sinclair will not commit himself except to say that so far as be ran tell, the Indications are favor. able. He seems to think—" The girl choked; but when she went on, her blue eyes were very bright and her lips did not fremble, “Doctor Sinciatr seems to think, Mr. Baton, that Fa. ther was found just in time, and that whatever chance he has for recovery came from you. Sometimes Father had Insomnia and wouldn't get to sleep till late In the morning: so J and Mr. Avery too—would have left him undisturbed until noon.

But there was sc.oething left with him which they could not take awny: for In the moment he had stood alone with her and passionmely pleading, something had between them could ge no name to it, but he knew that Harrlet SBantoine never could think of him again without a stirring of her pulses which drew her toward him. The following morning the relieving snowplows arrived from the East, and Eaton felt it was the beginning of the end for him. He watched from his window men struggling in the about the forward end of the train: then the train moved forward past the shoveled and trampled snow where rock and pleces of the snowplow were piled beside the track waited; finally it went on again and began to take up its steady progress.

Since Santolne was dying, would there be any longer an object in concealing the fact that he had been murdered? He dressed and then paced back and forth the two or three steps his compartment allowed him. He stopped now and then to listen: from outside came the noises of the yard: but he made out no sound within the car. If it had been occupled as on the days previous, he must have heard some one coming to the washroom at his end. Was he alone in the car now, or had the customary moving about taken place before he awoke? Finally, to free himself from his nervous listening for sounds which never came, he picked up the paper again. He read: “The news of Mr, Santolne's visit of a week on the Coast, if not known already in great financial circles, is likely to prove Interesting there. For years he bas beeh the chief agent’ in keeping peace among some of the great conflicting Interests, and more than once he has advised the declar. ing of Mancial war when war seemed te him the correct solution.
