It was a dark nlpht. for there was
no moon on thin Halloween, and the
t*are. nipped branches of the lorust
trees nibbed crrakinply tn the trltctit
wind that came from the smith.
The blp dock In the lower hall
struck the three-quarters after 11, and
as the chime died away Eve Ea rnnni
slipped out of her pretty white hed
and stole to the window. All she
could see was a bl:.? k wall of dark
ness. hut she conld hear the creak of
Ihe locust trees and the pernio siphinp
of the south wind.
Eve shuddered a little at the Idea
of p' :np out tnto that Hark void all
alone, for she was timid at night.
She always scurried pasi th? .lark <-or
Ders of the halls, and the shadows on
the stairways had been her dread
since childhood. The rambling old
hou?e afforded many shadows and
eerie corners, and Eve had never out
prown her little irirl terrors, much to
the amusement of the rest of the fam
lly.
Hut Eve was eighteen now. and she
had been reading old romances until
her pretty head was filled with fair
ladies and paliant knights and their
?}ee<N of love and darlnp. As no tv?
mar e had cbam-ed in the placid rou
tine of tier life. Kve Farnam had re

The rest of the household was asleep.

never given a thought to the romantic

She troped for and found the ban

softly carpeted stairs until she stood
breathless beside the tall clock She
knew tUat it was drawing near to mid

she waited to test the cbarni.
It required another effort of hurried

noiselessly outside. Once on the turf i
beneath the locust trees for she had
immediately overstepped the narrow /
path that encircled the house, she
gained confidence by closing her eyes
and croping her way back to the grav
eled path.
Kve bumped Into the trunk of n
Kv-ust tree and scraped her hand on the
T\>iij.h bark of another, and. although
she opened her eyes, she Immediately
closed them again, for the darkness
seemed quivering with ghostly shapes.
Then to the accompaniment of sough
ing wind and rustling trees Eve began
bw wanderings. For ten minutes she
w*nt around and around and back and
forth over the lawn, always fearful of
trespassing on the grounds that ad
JottW her fa ther*? place. Here was
set .-not her colonial house, patterned
aftei the Karnara home, for the two
pl.v-rs had once belonged to brothers,
and. although an Iron fence ran along
the entire front, the grounds bad no
dividing line.
Eve was not afralC of Judge Becker,
their next door nelgbtmr. for b?
a genial soul nod devoted to ber, but j
she wan fearful of diwrovwy. and *b?
could fomee the bantering sbe most
undergo If her fanciful expedition *??
made known
So when sbe felt tbe brier# catching
her serge skirt sbe knew she was on
the borders of Hie rose garden, and sbe
turned and walked as directly as she
could In tbe opposite direction, and as
her feet grated against gravel she
opened her eyes and 'was relieved to
see the faint blnr of white trimmings
that outlined the windows of her

Kve knew the path *rell, and It w?*
with entire confidence and newborn
courage tbnt sbe ahooU out her gold- i

backward around the r?th.

remained a black void. Kve knew sbe
would die of terror If a face should
appear In the mirror, but she felt that

.Tnst as she reached the southwest
i-orner of tbe house ainl aa tbe distant
chiming of tbe clock proclaimed tbe
last strokes of 12 E''#'s heart and
breath s<>omod to suspend action for a
brief moment There was the unmis
takable fragrance of a g"od cigar.
There appeared a red glow reflected
in the mirror, and before Eve could
turn she walked Into a pair of strong
arms, while over her shoulder there
appeared for an Instant no astonished
face lit up by the glow of the cigar
Sbe raw a pair of dark eyes and
caught a glimpse of handsome fea

It was easily done, for'her captor
made no attempt to bold her. Indeed,
it nppeared that he wiis as much as
toulshed at the encounter as was Eve
herself, but he was quicker to recov
er his equanimity.
??O ho! So you are tempting the

I?
I.uclnda was the name of .Indg* Beck

to grasp at thi? mistaken Identity.

"Oh. I beg your pardon" he cried In ,
stantly "1 was surprl?ed Tou know |

Thorp seemed an iMerrogatlon at

"It's Halloween." she salfl stiffly.

When she was safely In her room
