Heated words follow. Sarroi strikes at Hughes, the latter is about to strike back ween Stephen Muir appears and separates them. Sarroi turns to Hughes and wmspera something which makes him recoil as irom a blow. Hughes and Sarroi adjourn to tne library, where the whisper, whicn is an accusation that Hushes murdered Percival Betmo-ld, is repeated.

At her feet lay her husband. flight by their passion as in a swirling eddy r of a tideway, were broug-ht back with a 4) f a tideway, wera b. start to the realities. No outburst,of ungovernable fury at first; outwardly calm, cold as ice; his face grey white. only the eyes like gleaming steel- points revealing- the pent-up, seething passions within him, as he stepped a paoe or two forward. His voice calm, too, as he spoke, though it shook a little despite his I r iron control, coldly ironical: I always knew I'd let myself in for a damned bad bargain when I gave you my npme, but until now I thought at least yon had some rags of decency left," John Sarrol said. Beatrice's face might have been out in marble; every drop of blood seemed to have left it. with fear's imprint frozen there. Pnilip etood looking at John Sarroi, too startled and disconcerted in that ftrsft Ztoment to find words. It eeems an interesting tete-a-tete that I have been so tactless as to interrupt," went on Sarrol, finding the effort of repression increasingly difficult-" pouring out the story of your wrongs, of your husband's lemelties. in another man's cars, giving your- self to this philanderer's arm.s There"s only one word for women like you." And etill in the low, res.trained voice he flung the •vile word at her, like a handful of mud in her face.. The word was like a goad to 'Philip Muir. He strode forward passionately, his eyes gleaming, his hands clenched—up to the other man. Don't dare to say another word to her! Don't dare, I say, or I won't answer for the consequences. You may say what you like about me—but be very careful for your own sake how you speak again to her! You have no longer a weak. helpless woman to bully with your words and blows, but a man!" Philip said. You've been listening, and for once a listener has heard the truth about himself: pleasant or not-the truth!" The suppressed fury broke out at last in John Sarrol. I wander you dare speak to me, you philanderer and thief of a man's honour!" And almost before the words had left his lips, Sarrol, his pa sc ion flaming out beyond control, aimed a blind blow at the younger max.-a blow that would have felled Philip had he not moved quickly to avoid it; it merely grazed his cheek. Instantly Philip retaliated. His hand shot out, struck Sa,r- rol ia the face, who reeled back staggeriug under the force of the blow almost to the threshold of the library window; then, all the sleeping devil in him roused to a pitoh cf -vindictive fury, to the lust for reprisals, lie clotsed with the younger man. He was of immense natural strength; in spite of his bulk, in spite of his habits of living, his muscles—now, at any rate, in thia madness of passion—were steel. The two men swayed for an instant by the French window, struggling blindly, sav- agely, like primeval men, whilst the womaTl stood, as if struck powerless to move or cry out, one hand pressed to her heart, in the deep shadow cast by the verandah. Philip Muir was a strong man, too. but the older man'a grip was like a vice against which he struggled in vain; Sarrol a face a.nd gleaming eyes, close to his, vindictive and sinister, were alight with a sudden murderous glint, as they swayod in their silent struggle by the dark opening of the long window. Suddenly exerting all his brute strength, Sa.rrol flung the other man j off, hurled Philip away from him savagely into the unlighted room; and the younger ¡ pan went down with a thud, the sound deadened by the heavy Turkey carpet, his cheek striking against the leg of the oak writing table. I'll mark you. you philanderer, you thief of a. man's- honour!" broke from Sarroi following his fallen antagonist into the room, the darkness of which suddenly swallowed the two men up from Beatrice's  I ternfied eyes. It was darker to her eyes than it was to the two men within the room, each swayed I now by that one blind, savage, primitive instinct of passion to kill; less dark to them because of the moonlight in tne gar- den beyond the verandah, against which objects in the room stood out dimly, blurred and black. Only it was more by instinct than by sight that the hand of one of tbe men fell on something lying on the table; something hard and heavy on which his fingers tightened. A blackthorn stick that Owen Hughes had left behind him inadver- tently after his interview here with John Sarrol an hour and a half ago. "What was happening in the room? In spite of her appalled horror and fear, liD epite, of her desperate eagerness to know, the woman out on the verandah had no jower over her limbs; she might have been turned, to atone; all her senses seemed absorbed in the one faculty of hearing. She stood listening. What was happening 1n the room hidden from her eye-a by that veil of impenetrable darkness? She could hear the heavy breathing, a low, muttered word or eo, the sound of movements, but the antagonists were strangely and grimly silent And then- Out of the darkness a sharp, strangled cry that was hardly human, that died away almost instantly, simultaneously with a dull. heavy fall, most of the sound of which the thick carpet seemed to absorb. Then silence utter and absolute. The spell of dreadful inertia that had paralysed her seemed suddenly to snap. Instinctively Beatrice Sarroi know that the struggle had become tragedy. Which man had given that cry? She ran forward to the window; her own words spoken earlier that evening: dark and sinister, like a grave!" and those vague, oppressive fancies of coming ill swept back upon her now. In the room someone was breathing heavily—someone who did not speak as she entered, someone whom she could not see. Which man—which man? To Beatrice Sarrol's overstrung nerves, that played strange tricks with her semses, the room with its darkness and stillness and the tragic secret it held seemed sud- denly to fill with innumerable whisperings. Mie felt her way to the table blindly, filled with an almost irresistible, hysterical desire to scream, her skirts touching something on the floor as she passed. On the library table, near the silver can- dlestick and tray for sealing-wax, was a box of matches; the fact must have impressed itself on her mind quite uncon- sciously. Her fumbling, impatient fingers telt for the little silver box, found it. Which man had given th-a -t horrible cry? Beatrice Sarrol struck a match; the scratching sound of the match head on the box rasped jarringly on her nerves; the, match flared up, throwing a little, wavering tongue of light in the great room, before which the shadows fell back, like shifting waves, into the eea of darkness beyond Which, man? Standing by the table, his passion burnt out, shaking in every limb, evidently making a desperate fight to master the mad impulse to give way to blind terror, afraid ) even to speak 1-est, his voice should run out of his control to panic, was Philip Muir; and at her feet lay her husband, one arm Lent under him, a terrible discoloured bruise, almost a pulp, on the left temple, r; here the heavy blackthorn stick had descended in a crashing blow, the dead eyea storing up at her. The match died out between her fingers. How she succeeded in strangling the cry that rose in her throat Beatrice never knew. "Philil)--Philip, he's dead!" she said at last in a shaking whisper in the darkness. In spite of her horror, the woman forced herself to an unnatural calm; she bent and; felt the puise, laid her hand on the heart of the figure on the floor. Philip, you've killed him!" Oh, that can't be—I tell you it's impos- sible he'll come round prosontly-he can't be dead! He was 6tronger than I more like a madman and he meantI midchief- I believe he meant to kill me a.nd I had to defend myself. But he can't be de-&d-I won't believe that he's I dead!" The breathlessly rapid, s.taccato words,! hardly articulate, were quite unlike Philip Muir's voice. "Hush! Don't speak, Philip I" came the woman's insfotemt, agonised whisper of caution through the darkness. Pity was in her voice: pity for the living, and perhaps a sudden, jjeep, remorseful pity for the dead whom in that moment ot weakness and temptation she had WTonged —with a wrong of which this was the evil fruit. Philip, now if ever in all your life it is imperative you must keep yourself in hand; you must not lose your head. We've got to face facts; it is useless to deceive ourselves. John Sarrol's dead-and what xemaina now is to save you from the consequences I Listen!" Through the deep shadow of the room Boatrice Sarroi stole across to the door; ytood list,ening feverishly.

For Women Folk,
For Women Folk, HOMELY HINTS AND DAINTY DISHES, j Vegetables and Trulls are Nature's remedies, and far better than any medicine one can take. But the vegetables should be steamed, never boiled, for boiling water removes their saline properties, the most valuable constituents from the health- giving point of view. Snowballs. One cup of rice, a pint of milk. loz. of sugar, vanilla essence to flavour. Boil rice slowly till tender and the milk is absorbed, then sweeten and flavour to taste, and put into small wet cups. When cold turn cut on a deep dish, and p-our c'ustard sauce care- fully round. I A Baked Pudding. Soak some stale bread in milk until soft, break up with fork, and mix with one egg and sugar to taste. Grease baking-dish, and ier-y lightly drop by spoonfuls some of the mixture over the diah, then lightly spread ground rice, then currants, then mixture, then ground rice and currants, and lastJy the mixture. Will reqnire about one pint of milk and lib. of bread. Pear Fritters. Cut some ripe pears into slices, sprinkle with sugar, and dip into the batfer pre- pared as below. Take Jib. of flour, the yolks of two eggs, I pint of cold water, one table- spoonful of salad oil, and one tablespoonful of castor sugar. Mix into a smooth paste and dip the slices of pear into the batter and fry a golden colour, dust with sugar, and fcrve very hot. A Tasty Supper Dish. About 2oz. macaroni, broken up into small pieces. Throw into boiling water, to which add a. little salt. Bloil about 20 minutes. Drain off t,he water, and place macaroni on a hot dish in the meantime. Cut a nice, thick smoked haddock into pieces, lay in milk and boil till done. Take out, remove bone and skin, break a little more; thicken milk with loz. of butter rolled in as much flour as it will take up and just brought to the boil. The pieces of haddock added to make hot. Lay all on top of macaroni in a heap.

Football. I NEWPORT CLUB'S SPORTING OFFER The sporting offer made by t,he Newport Club haa been received in Llanelly in the same spirit, and as a result of the magnani- mous action of the Usksiders-quite in accord with the best traditions of the club—it is likely that what looked like developing into a. serious business will now be allowed to drop. The Llanelly committee met on Mon- day nie-ht, and the letter of th.e Newport club did not come to hand until Tuesday, so that the committee ha,ve not yet had an opportunity of dealing with it. There can be no doubt, however, that the offer will be accepted, and the match struck out of the records of both clubs. Swansea's Western Tour. The Swansea committee have selected the following side to do duty against the Albion at Devonport on Saturday: Baox. Jack Bancroft; three-quarters, W. Trew, Phil Hopkins, Harry Toft. and Harvey Thomas; halves, R. M. Owen and Dick Jones; forwards. D. J. Thomas, George Ilayward, Edga,r Mor- gan, Ivor Morgan, Harry Hunt, Dai Davies, Dai Griffiths, and Ike Williams. The team also play Plymouth on the Monday. One or two reservts to be tamest have not yet been selected. Fighting Footballers Mr. G. W. Dioios presided over the weekly meeting of the Cardiff and District Rugby Union held at the Bristol and South Wales Hotel on Tuesday, when the following sus- pensions were passed —Dunecombe and Can- terbury, for misconduct in the Cardiff Bar- barians v. Harriers match, for four league matches; Edmunds (Llandaff North), four league matches; and Evans (Penarth Thistie) eight weeks for fighting. Evans's penaltywas increased for giving a fictitious name. Taff Juniors and Caniton Crescent were ordered to re-play, Taff entering a protest I on short time.

Air Rifle Shooting I
Air Rifle Shooting I CARDIFF AND DISTRICT LEAGUE fo-night's Matches; Forecasts I [BY BULL'S-EYE."] The centre of attraction of to-night's series of matches is the meeting of the Albert with the unbeaten Duke of York. Both teams are, to my mind, evenly matched. The Albert has twice suffered defeat, on tioth occasions just a few points dividing the teams at the iinlsh, and in euch case the ALbert should have won. The Dake of York has not been so severely tested, the latter part of their programme being the matoLes to be feared. Their greate-st win was over the Adelphi, when the latter, alter holding the Duke tne nrst half, cracked up badly after the interval, losing by a full score. For to-night both teams will be at full strength, and with the advan- tage of the range the Duke should put up a big score. Tbe winner, I fancy, will he provided by the best starters. Whichever team leeds at the interval will, I think, take the points. In other matches the Adelphi, at home, will be hard put to to beat the Engineers, WW-st in the I 1¡n1If Oa;ivÐ tnl:r:ho;ceill ag; triumph over tho Lansdowne. The Stag may win agvtinot the York, and the Victoria will gain points from Cardiff City. The Tudor is at home to Splot- land, and a close finish should he been. The Tudor, with range advantage, should win. The Oak and Splott Conservative are evenly matched. The former tefam has enjoyed none the best of luck this year, j They may win to-night.

Passing Pleasantries, "An elephant must be a pretty expensive animal." a "Yes! I wish I had enough money to buy one." "What do you want an elephant for?" "I don't want an elephant at all. I merely j expressed a wish for the money." SECOND THOUGHTS. The owner of a small country estate decided to sell his property, and consulted an estate agent in the nearest town about the matter. After visiting the place the agent wrote a description of it, and sub- mitted it to his client for approval. "Read that again," said the owner, closing his eyes and learning back in his chair con- tentedly. After the second reading he was silent a few moments, and then said thought- fully. "I don't think I'll sail. I've been looking for that kind of place all my life, but until you read that description I didn't know I had it. No, I won't sell now." FAITHFUL TO THE LETTER. James, cried me meronant trom his private office. "Yes, sir," answered his office boy. "I am very tired, and I am going to have an hour's rest in my chair here." "Yes sir." "If I should happen to drop off call me at four o'clock." "Y æ, öÍr." So the merchant lay back in his chair, folded his hands, closed his eyes, and was soon in the land of dreams. He was awakened by the clock striking five, and called indignantly, "James!" "Ye,g, sir." "Why didn't you call me at four o'clock, as I told you to do?" "Well, sir, ye told me to call ye if ye had dropped off. I looked in on ye at four, and ye hadn't dropped off. Ye was sitting on the chair, sound asleep."
STOUT LADIES LOSE WEIGHT.…
STOUT LADIES LOSE WEIGHT. I A Classic Recipe. I There has been much talk lately about a new preparation for the cure of obstinate fatness—a simple, harmless mixture that any of our readers can make up at home, after procuring the ingredients at any chemist's. This is it:-One half-ounce of Ma-rmola (in a sealed packet), one ounce of fluid extract of GMycyrrhiza B.P., one ounce of pure Glycerine B.P., and Pepper- mint Water to make six ounoes in all. This wonderfully successful recipe has become classic. The dose is two teaspoonfuls after oac/h meal and at bedtime. Stout men and women are by no means required to half starve themselves when they go in for this simple treatment. Let them rather increase their strength and fortify the nervous system by a little indulgence in wholesome and enjoyable dixies. Fatig-uing physical exercises are likewise quite unnecessary. Nourishment and repose are as essential to health and beauty as is the elimination of the excess of fat, which, in the form of internal deposits, is really dangerous and always injurious to health. e67M
GALLED BY REPROOF.I
GALLED BY REPROOF. I Lahore, Wednesday—From detailed reports received here regarding the murder of Mr. OLbugia, district superiratendeint of police at Lyallpur, it appears Mr. Clough, who was a young man and a .remarkable linguist, had occasion to reorlove a earned constable named Alumeiieir for attempting to 422heat the Government over the price of a camel, and hi doing so used language mortifying to a high-caste Mohoaimedan. Mr. dough's orderly and another sowar, who were standing toy, made merry over Alumsher, wnd the imam reltfred to his quarters, where he apparently brooded over the matiter until midnight, when he took a sptade and clove the heads cf Mr. Clougih. and the two natives while they were asleep. Although no policeal gigni-flcance is attached to the crime, the incident is regarded as indi- cating the lessening c? respect among I natives for the lives of Europeans.

Miss Queenie Leighton 1
Miss Queenie Leighton I PRINCIPAL BOY. AT DRURY-LANE Miss Queenie Leighton, who is appearing at the Cardiff Empire this week, where she sings a song of her own writing, called Parsley," will once again next Christmas take up the role of principal boy at Drury Lane, where she has appeared in that capacity for the lengthy period of five years However, while Miss Leighton has had such a long and pleasant association with Mr. Arthur Collins's management at the Lane, her association with last year's production of Babes in the Wood was not altogether a pleasant one. It was while she was rehearsing for that pantomime that she had the serious accident which nearly deprived her of the use of an arm. She described it graphically to one of o-ur representatives who saw her at the Empire last night. "It happened one night," she said, "when I was just off to the theatre. My motor-oar was waiting at the door of my MISS QUEENIE LEIGHTON. flat, and just before I intended going down I went to the sink in the kitchen and emptied some petrol into it. I hadn't the let idea that a gas-ring there had been lighted till the petrol flared up and set everything on fire, including the front of my bodice. I was very severely burnt; indeed, few people thought I should ever be able to use my left arm again. I was in bed for sixteen weeks, with five nurses to look after me, Four pieces of skin taken from four different people were grafted on to my arm. I was under chloroform fourteen times, to give you some idea of the terrible time I had, and my arm even now .is still badly scarred. You might scarcely believe it, but that accident cost me more than £ 2,000." Miss Leighton was kept off the stage, of course, for many weeks, and the first time she left her house was to attend the last night of the pantomime in which she should have taken the leading part. After her reason at the halls, which she commenced on Easter Monday, she will get a big welcome back from the patrons of Drury Lane. There she will play "Dick Whittington" for the first time, and will commence rehearsing in three weeks' time. After the pantomime she will return to the music-halls, with which she is booked for the next flve years, and, of course, Cardiff is included in her next itinerary.

r FROM ALL QUARTERS
r FROM ALL QUARTERS The Ven. F. G. Blackburn, Archdeacon of Manchester, is seriously ill. Mr. Granville Barker is now out of danger. Lord Winterton, M.P., will leave London in the early part of December for a shoot- ing trip on the White Nile, where he will spend Christmas. A boat containing six of the crew of the steamer T. W. Stewart capsized off Margate yesterday, and one of the men, named David Porth, was drowned. "I was told that this man was staying in the country," said a rate collector yes- terday at the Willesden Police-court. "I found he was in Brixton Prison." Douglas electors number 5,737, of whom 879 are widows and 524 spinsters. Women hold, therefore, 25 per cent. of the voting power, and can dominate the elections. At a thanksgiving service at Poirt Isaac, Cornwall, the waJIs of the church were draped wi-th fishing nets, and lobster pots and packing-barrels occupied the window spaces. During the hearing of a charge against a Jewish boy, at Thames Police-court, a reformatory school officer told the magis- trate there was an increase of crime among young Jews. Sir William Huggins finds it necessary to give up the use of the telescopes and spec- troscopes with which the Royal Society provided him in 1871, and the society has offered the whole equipment to Cambridge University. A conference of 47 delegates from traders' associations in and around London has just formed the London and Suburban Traders' Federation, which many local associations, representing 1,300 tradesmen, have already joined. Chloroform, a knife, files, gloves, and a list of addresses were discovered in the pos- session of William Simpson, who was found oy a policeman at a Lincoln's Inn base- ment, and who was remanded yesterday at Bow-street. Sir Alfred de Bock Porter, secretary and financial adviser to the Ecclesiastical Com- missioners for England since 1880, died at New Barmet thds morning. Deceased, who was 68, entered the service of the Ecclesiasti- cal GommiiSEikmers in 1860. The Earl of Ellesmere has just given zEI25 towards the formation of an ambulance training centre for the mining districts of Worsley, Walk den, Boothstown, and Little Hulton, lying between Manchester and Bolton, and has been appointed the first president.
