Michel Grey was missing. AH the
police In Paris could not have told us
more. The man had vanished like a
phantom, leaving no word, no messafre,
no letter. The city had taken him from
our slirht. Whether he were alive or
dead, in Prance or out of Prance, a
wrlllinjr absconder or the victim or the
assassin, neither friend nor enemy
could tell, lie had gone like the nlKht,
and had left us to face the problem as
we might.
That was a problem for us. and that
we could mt begin and end with his
going. I never had a douSt. lie had
been aeeu about with Sir Nicholas for
She Is an Artist from Doston.
the best part of a month: my master's
Kame with his sister, Dora Grey, was
known to all the town about: there
wasn't a servant In the hotel that
didn't understand where the hate be
tween the two men came from.- And, to
cap all. the man went away at the
height of it. and we were left with the
girl, and with all the talk that followed
his disappearance.
Until this moment I had looked upon
the whole episode as a handsome turn
of fortune. There were many weeks
after the strange hoax of the golden
egg when my mister never put his nose
outside the Hotel de Lille. In all the
years I've known him I can never re
member such an upset as that business
was both to his health and to his energy.
He seemed Just like on stupefied, with
no taste for work and no taste for play.
The little money that he possessed drib
bled away pound 'by pound until I had
to find what was wanted even for his
dally living. He no longer earned any
thing at the billiard table: he scarce
read the newspapers. There were days
when he never gjt up from his bed;
days when he did not open his Hps to
man or woman. And I do believe that
he was never so low, or in such a queer
way, as upon the evening that brought
him face with Dora Orey and gave a
turn to his life which he was to feel for
many years.
She came to the hotel quite sudden
an auburn-haired, blue-eyed little thing
with the fairest skin woman ever had,
and a way with her which was wonder
ful to see. The name down in the vis
itor's book was "Dora Grey, of Bos
ton." and just above It I saw written
"Michel Grey, artist." But I didn't
mark the man until the following morn
ing, though Sir Nicholas, who had gone
down Into the garden that night, the
first time for many weeks, was as full
of the pair of them as he could be.
"Hildebrand." says he, "there's an
American couple below which Is worth
the knowing. She's an artist rom Bos
ton, and she's come to the schools. It's
the Oreys, the railway people, they are;
end rolling In money. Did ye hear a
fair-haired girl laughing at the top of
her voice In the garden? Well, that's
the one I mean. Palth, It's speaking
manners these Americans have for
sure. She'd told me her history before
we'd done the soup."
"Is she staying long, sir?" I asked.
''Three months certain, and likely
longer. She's come here to be near the
painting. That was her brother that
sat opposite Jack Ames tonight. A
white-faced man, with a liver, I'll
wager. I'll know him better this time
tomorrow."
It was extraordinary, I must say, to
see how a little thing like this drew him
cut of himself. While he'di gone down
to dinner telling me that I should find
his body in the morgue before tho
month was out, he came up to bed all
cheerful like a boy, and next morning
he took an hour to dress himself, I saw
him sittitng down with the Americans
to dejeuner, and after dinner he was
three hours with the brother over at
the bllllard-room at the Cafe Rouge.
Then I knew that the business had be
run, and that luck had lifted us out of
the groove again.
"They're a queer couple altogether,
(Hildebrand," says Sir Nicolas, when I
took him his coffee next morning; "be
dad! the man puzzles me. lie's as
mean of the money as a Scotchman out
of Montrose. There was three hours
we were playing last night and not a
sovereign changed hands."
"You won't pay many bills out of
that, sir," says I.
"And don't I know It. Isn't It the
jrlrl I'm thinking of? They're the
railway people I'd be telling you the
Greys of Boston. That was a lucky
day which sent them to the Hotel de
Lille; and for three months, too. You
can do much with a woman In three
months, Hildebrand."
"That you can, sir, If she's willing."
"Oh. she'll be willing enough by and
by. There's no sugar for an American
tongue like a title to roll over It. I was
the man of the party before I'd known
her an hour. She's Just the sweetest
brt of a brogue you ever heard, and her
father's worth five million dollars. Get

me my light frock coat, will you know
I'm to drive to St. Cloud this very
morning."
Well, he went oft with her sure
enough, the pair of them dressed up un
til you might have picked them out of
a thousand. When he was gone, and
the place was put a bit straight, I
strolled over to the Cafe Itouge to get
my lunch and read the Knglish papers.
1'aris was beginning to be full again
then, for we were almost through tho
autumn, and the gardens were cold at
nights. Hut you could find the folks
you wanted any time from midday un
til 4, and no sooner was I In the place
than 1 saw IMIchel Grey, the brother
of the little American woman St. Nico
las had Just driven to St. Cloud. He
was sitting at a table, and there was a
bottle of hock before him.
"Halloa, my man." cried he, as I
passed him, and he didn't speak a bit
like an American, "I'd half-a-dozen
words with you If you don't mind."
"With the greatest pleasure In life,
sir," I replied, thinking, at the same
time, what a peculiar-looking gentle,
man he was.
"Is It long since you left Dublin?"
asks he, quite calm like, and pretend
ing to see nothing of the start I gave.
"Would that be any business of
your?" I asked, sharp and short, and
looking at him In a way he couldn't
mistake.
"Certainly It would be," says he, "a
cousin of mine knew a Sir Nicolas
Hteele In Dublin three years ago, and
1 was wondering If It was the same."
"Then you should have asked my
guvnor." says 1, while my heart began
to Jump so that I could hardly hold my
hand still.
"Oh. no offense." cries he, and with
that he slipped a flve-franc piece into
my hand.
"You've been In Paris long?" he asks.
"A month or more," says I, thinking
where I could have him.
"Are you going back to England
soon?"
"We are gnlng back at the end of
November. Sir Nicolas has engage
ments In London that month."
on, then you are going back."
"Why. what would we be doln
the winter here In Paris?"
doing all
He seemed to think a while over this,
taking a drink of the hock and rolling
his bleary eyes as though he was
looking for some one In the garden.
Presently he snld:

"Oh." said I. "it's much the same as
other situations. Here today and gone
tomorrow."
"Then you travel a good deal?"
t..'Th.fV8 so ,,ut travel or no travel,
it s all the same to me."
nf"JfU maat,P.r "eeni3 a Pleasant sort
of gentleman?"
"I should call him that." 8
he "e baronet or something, Isn't
"Exactly; he's Sir Nicolas Steele of
Castle Hath, County Kerry "
"A generous man. I should say."
I looked at him straight, for I'd read
him up by this time.
"It's a cold morning for taking In
the open air, sir," says I, and with that
I turned on my heel and left him.
Now though I had taken It coollv
enough, a duller head than mine could
have seen through the man's talk.
"What's in the wind is this," said I
to myself, when I got back to the
hotel, "you've heard some gossip, my
fine gentleman, and you want to get to
the bottom of It. If It's true that a
cousin of yours knew Sir Nicolas Steele
In Dublin three years ago, then you'll
write to him. and what you'll learn
won't keep your sister at the Hotel de
Lille. Maybe that cousin Is In Europe;
more probably he's in America, which
gives us a .month. Anyway, It's you
that we've got to play, annd the soon
er we begin the better."
This was my thought, and yet simple
as It seemed, there was something hap
pened later In theday which gave anew
turn altogethor to It. I'd been bother
ing my head with the matter all after
noon, making nothing new of It out
side the fact that the danger signal
had been rung, so to speak, when what
Would That Be Any Business of Yours?"
should happen but that. Just before
7 o'clock, I met the man again face to
face In the corridor of the hotel, and
the sight of him fairly took my breath
awayi- I shouldn't have called him a
healthy person any time, but now his
eyes were sunken away something
dreadful to see while his cheeks were
hollow like the cheeks of one Just got
up from fever bed. White as his
face had been In the morning, the color
of It was like a bit of plaster of Paris
In the afternoon. And what was more
than .this the way he walked, feeling
his road with his hands, like a blind
man, and staring before him as though
he was frightened that every step he
took might land him on nothing. Neyer
have 1 seen the muscles of a man's
mouth twitch so much, or a man's
Angers look so. like claws. If he had
been stark raving mad he could not
have given me a greater shock and
I stood there before him feeling like a
child that has seen something horrible
on the stairs and ' does not know
whether to go forward or to go back.
There was a" minute when, seeing
him clutch hold of the banister and fix
his dreadful-eyes on me, I thought he
was going to strike me. He half raised
his right arm, but let It. drop quickly
again and began to mumble something
that I could not hear. His speech was
thick like that of a drunken man, and
yet I could have sworn that drink was
not the matter with him. Quite other
wise, he appeared to be In great pain,
and when he got his words out at last,
they came with gasps like the words
of a man suffering,
"Where's your shoddy baronet V he
asked. i . -
"What's that?", said I. ', r
"Your Nicolas Steele, card-sharper
and thief," he went on, and this took
me more aback than If he'd hit me.
"Look here." said I. "you're a bold
man, but If you don't want to be horse
whipped out of this hotel, don't say
that twice." . : ... '.-.v.
"Then you mean to say that he
Isn'tr - . (!
"A hundred times. A more honor
able gentleman doesn't breathe In
Paris, and If it wasn't for the state
you were In, young man. I'd let you
know It. too."
This silenced him a bit' He 'stood
racking on his heels for a minute or
more, and then muttering something
between his teeth which I could not
make out, he continued his march up
the stairs. A quarter of an hour later.
Sir Nicolas himself drove up with the
young American, and he hadn't been
In the hotel two minutes before I'd
told him what had passed and what
I'd seen. Strange to say. he took It as
calm as a man hearing of the weather.
"The fellow's a lunatic; that's what
he Is." he cried, while he began to
dress for the opera; "she's told me his
history coming home. He's a drug
drinker, and what he remembers today
he'll know nothing of tomorrow or.
perhaps, for a month or more. Ye
needn't mind him no more than a toy
plstol. I have her word for It, and
that's good enough for me."
"Then his cousin wasn't In Dublin
three yenrs ago?" asked 1.
"Indeed and he was. , and that's the
humor of It. He left before my affair,
d'ye see. and if they write him. It's a
pretty tale of me he'll be telling. Po
dad! I couldn't hove wished It better
If me own hands had the planning of
It."
"I'm glad to hear that, sir." said I,
"so "long as the young lady doesn't
listen."
"Listen not she. It's easy for tho
ears to be shut when the heart Is open.
Sure, won't I be marrying her within
the month. She's American, you must
remember, and tied to nobody's
apronstrlngs. Oh. It was a famous
day that kept us at tho Hotel de Lille."

NEWS OF (HR INDUSTRIES.
Happenings of Interest to tho Staple
Trades and Particularly to the Trade
In Iron, Steel and Anthracite Coal.
Philadelphia Times: The Iron trade
of this country has suffered a long and
serlotiH digression, but the signs are
unmistakable of a healthy and endur
ing revival of prosperity In that Im
portant branch of our Industry. Let
American Iron men take care to pre
serve their own market, and not thrust
It away from them by Inordinate greed.
In 1S82 a severe depression in the Iron
market was followed by a brisk revival
of demand and increasing prices. Rail
roads needed an unusual amount of
Iron, and when general prosperity came
upon the country the American manu
facturers could with difficulty supply
the demand for home consumption. In
stead of holding the market to them
selves when they could secure large
profits for their products, .they In
creased prices simply because It was
possible to do so until they got quite
beyond the protection line, and Europe
immediately dumped millions of tons
upon our shores. The result was a
speedily broken market and American
Iron men were bankrupted by their own
suicidal folly. Iron has been rapidly
advancing for some months past, and it
Is now commanding a price that affords
a liberal profit to all who are properly
equipped for its production. Whether
our 'American Iron men shall enjoy the
fruits of this advancement In our gen
eral prosperity, or whether they "hall
give the benefit of It to European Iron
men depends wholly wpon themselves.
If they advance the price of Iron ma
terially beyond Its present rate they
must again Invite the Importation of
hundreds of thousands of tons of for
eign iron, and again destroy their own
prosperity as they did thirteen years
ago. Our Iron manufacturers can sup
ply every demand in this country, and
even more, and it Is not only the Inter
est of the consumer but the Interest of
the manufacturer as well that prices
shall not be advanced to a point that
must again make this country the
dumping ground of the Iron men of
Europe. 'Don't repeat the suicide of '82.
The plan to be followed under the al
leged new settlement of the anthraclto
coal trade difficulties is as follows: It
Is understood by those conversant with
the situation that Mr. Morgan's Idea is
that the entire transportation matter
freight, coal and passenger business
should Ibe settled at one and the same
time, and that one agreement should
serve to place the traffic of the railroads
between the seaboard and Chicago on
a more staible and profitable basis.
This agreement. It is said, has been ap
proved by the committees of leading of
ficers of the Trunk XJne and Central
Traffic associations, and will be rati
fied by the presidents' in the course of a
few weeks. In regard to the anthracite
coal situation. It Is said the new basis
of settlement will prove satisfactory to
all Interests Involved. Of course, the
output of the different coal companies
will have to be settled 'before the new
arrangement will work perfectly. But
the point which will be first settled,
and which the coal railroad presidents
agree can be easily settled, Is what coal
tonnage each transportation company
Is entitled to carry. The new arrange
ment, a pool, provides for the settle
ment of this question by arbitration,
based upon the output of the different
coal carrying roads for a given period.
This matter having) been settled. It is
said that commissioners placed In
charge of the bureaus for superintend
ing all anthracite coal will receive
dally reports of the amount allotted to
each road. As soon as any company
reaches the limit It will be directed by
the commissioner to stirp hauling coal.
The transportation part of the coal

even after the disease has progressed so
far as to induce repeated bleedings from
the lungs, severe lingering cough with
copious expectoration (including tubercu

emaciation and weakness.
Do yon doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cored by " Golden Med

dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the beat
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of "Golden Medical Discovery,"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod

believed the matter will reach a final
solution before the middle of the monfh.
Touching the other features of the new
coal combination, which have been dis

only considered in the light of sugges
tions as yet, the following Is the most
Important, because of the far-reaching
effects It would have on the coal trade:
One of the presidents, who Is said to
have the approval of certain leading
Interests, Is laying before the other
companies a plan for establishing a gen
eral selling agency in New York and
other large cities, with a view to having
all coal transported to competitive cen
ters by the railroads or coal companies
In question consigned to a single agent,
who would represent all interests alike.

be to abolish many expenses Incident
to such agencies, and especially the
commissions or tax which the general

that comes to tidewater.
