This the mozo brought in an Indian basket wrought by the Apaches who live across the river Bull Durham and brown paper. The señor offered these to his guest, while Creede grinned in anticipation of the outcome. "What?" exclaimed the Señor Moreno, astounded. "You do not smoke? Ah, perhaps it is my poor tobacco! But wait, I have a cigarro which the storekeeper gave me when I No? No smoke nothing?

His tranquil manner so astounded them, that they would have deemed it a barbarous deed had they abused the faith of this poor creature, which he so trustfully placed beneath their very feet.

"What! would ye have fiddlin' at a funeral?" asked the Chamberlain, still without turning or slowing his step; and then, as though he had been inspired, he drew out the flageolet that was ever his bosom friend, and the astounded Frenchman heard the strains of a bagpipe march. It was so incongruous in the circumstances that he must laugh.

"Duke di Serrano," said the count, in English, turning towards his astounded kinsman, and in a voice that, slow, clear, and firm, seemed to fill the room, "I returned to England on the receipt of a letter from my Lord L'Estrange, and with a view, it is true, of claiming at his hands the satisfaction which men of our birth accord to each other, where affront, from what cause soever, has been given or received.

"Come back there with me, please," she begged, almost frantic with fear now.

Calhoun was certain there was something which those present did not wish him to knowsome object which they wished to keep secret. The number of members in the order was now given to Calhoun. The figures astounded him. In Iowa there were twenty thousand members, in Missouri fifty thousand, in Illinois one hundred and twenty thousand, in Indiana one hundred thousand, in Ohio eighty thousand.

Anon steps sounded on the stairs, and Mr. Hatchard, grave of face, entered the room. "Outside!" he said, briefly. "What!" said the astounded Mr. Sadler. "Why, it's eleven o'clock."
