Why do you look at me like The man did not answer, but his lips were -wreathed in a. glia-tiy nm-ile. Then he fell heavily forward with his face and arms cl.a the table. Davi<i! cried the d itracted woman, aud rhe rushed forward, her lank, black hair hanging down on her shoulders, her dressing- gown held round her with one hand, and the) other ftretohed out as if to grasp her b-ot c-r by the shoulder. But the fingers never so much 8i! touched the cloth of his coat. She drew them back. and screamed with fear, j Then the scream died away into a low wi,ii. I anti she cla-sped her hands together, and I) rtared at the bottle on the table. From where ehe stood she could read the inec no- tion etched on the glase. She had some knowledge of chemistry. for she had learnt. to help her brother in the dispensing of medicine. She knew that David Jones was dead. ) For a. minute she did not move; then site i crept round the room, keeping close to the wall. and as far from the table as possible. Another woma.n without her knowledge might have rushed out into the st,reet ¡ a.nd screamed for help. But Marj Jones knew that her brother was beyond the reach of all human aid. He bad killed himself, and the world must be led to believe that he died by acoident. That 18 all that she oould do for him. and that 11' what she had to do at once before she let the neighbours know what had happened. Then ehe 8aw the letter on the mantelpiece. and, snatching at it, she tore open the enve- lope and read the contents. "Dear Mary, Tan the message. "I'm sorry to leave you, but I cannot face the battle any longer. All I have, which is precious little, is yours. The force of circumstances has driven me to this. "Emrys Morgan did not die the other day in the cottage up in the mountains, and a j stranger, who died of exposure and exhaoe- j tion, was buried in his name. Morgan bribed me to help him in this with the thousand pounds he left me in his will. -1 rave a false certificate of death. The idea was to get the insurance money. "But I believe that Emrys Morgan is now dead. He shipped on the Hypatia under the iname of William Bees, and the ve?el WM lo?t with all hands, save one. You can read about it in the newspaper. "1 am not telling you this because I wish to unburden my soul to you before I die, but for a. definite purpose. These Morgans, mother and daughter, have played a mean trick On me. They have decided to dispute the will, and even suspect me of murder. There is talk of the grave being opened. If they had done this they would have cut their own throats, but, unfortunately, •Qaey would bave cut mime a8 well. Now I am beyond their reach, and I leave their fate in your hands. Strike hard, but do mot, strike till you are certain of smashing them up, till your blow will have most effect. The girl Gwladye is at the bottom of this. I Do not spare her a single pang of her humiliation. Wait and keep this letter till yea can do most harm with it. As for myself, a stra.nge madness is on me to-right. Perhaps a saner man would have fsaitcd, have bided bis time, and taken his own vengeance. But I feel as though the sword will be broken in my hands. I give it you; strike without mercy. I feel-I know that God has rendered me powerless to do either pood or evil. The wages of sin is death. DAVID JOXF-F." She looked from the letter to the motion- lew figure at the table. Then she mechani- cally folded up the two sheets, and replaced them in their envelope. "They shall pay." the muttered, as ehe mö\ed slowly towards the door leading into the kitchen. I will bide my time." C-be made her way into the surgery, found a bottle of some harmless concoction of per. permint, emptied it into a measuring glass, and returned with both glass and bottle to the sitting-room. Then she lifted the half empty bottle of poison from the table, poured its content* ir..to the bottle which had held the pepper- nuait, and replaced the latter near to her brother's outstretched band. Having done this, she emptied the concoction of pepper- mint into the bottle which had held the poison, and carried it back into the surgery, placing it carefully on the sbelf which was reserved for poisons. A mistake," she said to beteelf, 11 sncb a thing has happened before. 'Chen she made her way out into the paa- sage, opened the front door, and thrust out her head into the darkness. Serea-m after soream of terror came from Iter lips. CHAPTER X. "Well. Owen. how goes it ?' asked Reggie P<ywya with a laugh. "It goes very well, indeed," Owen Hughes replied; we're makiug money—heaps of money—and it's going into the pockets of thoee who have earned it." Beggiie Powya smiled, and leaning back in him ohaar, blew rings of smoke towards the ceiling. Owen Hughes, who was eitting at a large mahogany desk littered with papers, swung round his revolving chair, and began to ma.ke some calculations on the back of an e,IIeLo. Three ye-a-rs had pa?sed since t'he day when Owen Hushes* had eoane into his in-Heritance. Hia face was jrraver. more careworn, and more deeply lined. His body was as lithe and athletic as it bad ever been, but his mind had I' aged considerably. There are villages and even towns where I the passing of time seems to leave ecarcely a footprint. Three, thirty, aye. and in some caees, three hundred years go by, and the same grey houses stand in the same quiet ¡ streets. Costumes a.nd manners change, but I the town or village remain unaltered. On the oilier hand, there are places where time moves like a hurricane, blotting out field and houfe and tree. These are the places where life moves and throbs in the march of pro- gress, where men toil and strive for gold, where the city stretches out its dark tentacles into the green of wood and meadow- land, and the smoke of chimneyt hangs in the a.ir where a little while ago the lark Bang and hovered over its neat. And, as it is with places, so, too. is it with men. Three years had passed. The PIa", Bryriboul, let to an American financier in need of rest, wa3 cjuaint and lovable and old-fashioned as it had ever been—nestling among its woods at the base of a. mountain, and with its parkland running down to the sea. But the hundred acres of land near Cardiff— those hundred acres so jealously guarded by their former owner from the grip of toil and c.ommN-e-had been changed beyond all recognition. The grass, where it still existed, wa* stamped down and blackened. Sheds and machinery and chimneys stood out against the 7ky. And in the earthy below men laboured like- burrowing ants, in search of wealth. Three years had passed; Mrs. Morgan and her daughter still lived in Cardiff; but owing to Hughes's generosity t,hey had moved to a larger house in a bettor part of the terra. Audrey Anwyl was still unmarried, and her father had continued to heap up upon rich. Reggie Powys had gone in for big game shooting, and had just returned from C'entral, Afric3, bigger and stronger than when he had left England, and with a. face browned by tropical suns. There Homed to be little outward change in ail these people. Mary Jones who could at any moment havo thrown -v. into at least two homes, had .stayed her hand. She was still bidiiig her time. But Owen Hughes had changed, and the change was almost as great as that which had taken place in the land whicth he had turned from green meadows to the blackened surface of a coal mine. The boyish enthu- siasm and chivalry, which had prompted him to yeU his first inheritance and throw the proceeds into the melting pot of a strike, had now, with the new re.?pont>ibiiitiee of wealth a.nd organisation, given place to a sterner frame of mind. The young champion of the wonting classes had become the grave and sober leader of men. the employer of labour, the man with a definite, purpose. Three years of work and con.flict had left their mark upon his face, and as he sat at his desl., making calculations on the back of an envelope, it seemed to Reggie Powys, who had not seen him for several months, that the pleaeant friend of his boyhood was dead, and that a stranger had taken his place "Not very glad to see me. are you?" Powys queried after a. minute or two of gilenoe" YeL-, Reggie," said Hughes without turn- ing his head. Of course, I am glad to see you. But I'm very busy. If jou will come and dine with me to-night." Sorry I oa.ii't, old man; I must spend my first evening wit-h the mater. Come, give me a minute or two; this isn't the way to treat an old pal, whom you haven't seen for a, year. "I m sorry, Reggie," Hughes- said quickly. Then he turned round in his chair and ami led, a little wearily, so it seemed to his friend. "I'm up to my eyes in work and there's trouble ahead—serious trouble, I'm afraid." "niot with your men. anyway," laughed Powye. "I hear they are capitalists-live like fighting cocks—invest money in the bank, and all that sort of thing. You don't mean to tell me they're not satisfied. Of course, I think you're foolish over them, but that's your own look-out. Youn mine is a sort of Co-operative Society, k:n't it?" It is a Limited Liability Company," Hughes replied, in which every man who works for it is a shareholder The shares are transferred to them by me, and they sign an agreement that if they leave the mine they give up the shares. It's simple enough." Very, Owen. And I shouldn't think that any of the men were in a hurry to leave you." "They aren't. But there are others who are transferred to them by me, and they a rumour of trouble with the Trade Union already; and, on the other hand, the Coal- owners' Association is giving me a. bad time." "Between the devil and the deep see, eh? Well, everyone who wants to do good in thi:- world has got to face trouble." That is so, Beggie. I'm glad you're learn- ing sense. Well, if you can dine with me to-morrow night." Very well. old chap, but you can spare me another minute or two. How are things going with you—outside businese?" I have no interests—outside business," Hughes answered quietly. I am oontent to do my work as well as I can-to eat and Bleep. That is my life." Reggie Powys frowned, and for a few moments seemed to be lost in thought. I'm sorry to hear it, old man," he said after a. pause. Life is not all work; there are things outside business. How are the Anwyls?" Owen's face darkened. I believe they are very well," he replied. I do not see any- thing of them now. Mr. Anwyl is no friend of mine, and if he had the power he would crush me out of existence He doee all he can to injure mQ" I'm sorry to hear that. You and Audrey Anwyl were such friends, weren't »ou ? I had hoped-" he paused, silenced by the terrible look in the other man'6 eyes. "Don't speak of that," Hughes muttered hoarsely. I and Audrey Anwyl are as far a.part as the two poles. She has no room in her thoughts for me, and I have none in mine for her." Are you too busy?" Powys queried with a smile- Yee, my work oocapiet all my tim,&-&ll my thoughts. There is no room in my life for anything else." Reggie Powys rose to his feet, and laid his hand on his friend's shoulder. "My dear old chap- he said. Then, as the door of the office opened, he shrank back, and relit his cigarette, which had gone out. Mr. Edmunds to pee you, sir," said the clerk. "Very well; show him in. Good morning, Reggie. Dinner to-morrow at 7.50." Powers left the room, and the little lawyer entered it. His face waf pale, and his hand tfembled as he extended it. What's the matter, Edmunds?" queried Husrhee. You look as if you'd seen a ghost." "I have. Mr. Hughes, I have; and I want to talk to you about it." TO BE CONTINUED TO-MORROW.

n WRESTLING. NOTABLE VICTORIES IN SPORT- II IG TOURNAMENT. In contrast to the first three day. only fourteen bouts were decided at the Aihambra on Tlmisiay afternoon in the National Sport- ing Tournament. Although several con- tests were settled in very quick time. others proved very close and often exciting. Notable victories in the ten ligl1 t bmHs were those of Faulkner. Peter Gotz, Olsen, and Keretan, all of whom proved themselves redoubtable-men. There was a fine struggle between Mills and Owen, two very powerful men. the ex-soldier only winning after an extra five minutes. The Newfoundlander. OL-en, proved very strong, and beat Tonge with his favourite scissors hold. The feature of the two bouts in the middies was the evceptional display of strength by But tan Singh. His opponent, Evans, of Manchester, showed fine pluck, hut. after breaking three terrible clutch holds, was put down by sheer strength. There was a decided element of fun in the last bout of the day, Beaucairois weighing some twenty stone, and Stcckley only about three stone less.

The Middlesex Committee have decided that they could. not sup.port Lord Hawke's j scheme for dividim! the county champion- ship into two competitions. JESSOP'S VIEW OF THE COUNTY I SCHEME. Mr. Gilbert Jessop, speaking at Thrrsday's annual meeting of the Gloucestershire County Club, dealt mainly with Lord Hawke's scheme. He, personally, did not agree with the scheme at all. for. though it migbt mean a good thing for the eight clubs in the first division, it would be very bad for the eight in the second division. They saw what happened in the football world when spectator had a choice between First League aud Second League matches. If the scheme were adopted it would considerably reduce county fixture lists, and, as friendlies no longer had attrac- tions, it would mean a- big loss of revenue. He feared counties in danger of losing their places in the first division would play less attractive cricket than .iever in the effort to save their position, and it would also lead to the importation of many players from Aus- tralia and anywhere they could get them from. Other speakers opposed the scheme, and at the meeting of the county committee sub- sequent to the annual, meeting the members unanimously decided that they would not support Lord Hawke's scheme. GARNDIFFAITH CLUB'S OFFICIALS. The annual meeting of the Garndiffaith Cricket Club was held at the Rose and Crown I Hotel, Mr. A. D. Williams presiding.

It was also decided to have an eisteddfod on March 21, instead of .the usual annual concert.

TRIPLE FIGHT IN MR. PETE CURRAN'S DIVISION There a-re but nineteen contests fixed for to-day, and the seats involved were repre sented in the last Parliament as follows:— Unionists 5 ;s Labour 1 Nationalist 4 When a bye-election took plaoe in the Jarrow Division in July, 1907, there were no ifewer than four candidates, a. Nationalist taking part in the fight on addition to the Liberal, the Labour, a,nd the Unionist nominees. Mr. Pete Curran, who then headed the poll with,a, majority of 760 over the Unionist, is now standing in a triple fight with a Liberal and a Unionist. There has been a rare campaign battle in Wiltshire, where in the Westbury Division Mr. J. M. F. Fuller, one of the Liberal Whips. is opposed by Mr. R. C. Long, a brother of Mr. Walter Long. Mr. Fuller's majority in 1906 was 1,476, and he was unopposed on his appointment as a Junior Lord of the Treasury in February of the same year. Sir Charles Dilke has this time to defend his seat in the Forest of Dean from an attack made on behalf of the Unionists by Mr. J. H. Renton. Another well-known Liberal. Sir J. Compton Rickett, who last time won by the majority of 4,124 in the Osgoldcross Division of York- shire, appears in the list of candidates. The oontest in the Ramsey Division of Hunts is a keen one. the Liberal majority four years ago being 381, whilst in Dumbar- Itonshire the supporters of the Government "em successful on the last occasion bý 467. In Fifeshire West there is a three cornered fight.

I BOXERS' BACKERS I I - I
I BOXERS' BACKERS I FAIL TO MATCH WELSH AND I DRISCOLL Weight Problem Fatal I Negotiations for what would have been the boxius contest of the century—Welsh v. Lriscoll—foil through at Cardiff on Th ir-- dav on the question of weight. The parties ou either side met at the "Wcbt'f'ri Mail" office, but the principals were not present. Messrs. Harry Marks and H. Lyon repre- sented Fred Welsh, and Messrs. Albert Shir- ley and P. Driscoll were for Jim Drisooll. The others present were Messrs. J. R Corycil (America), George Jukes, Tom Burns, and Charles Harvey (New York). Mr. Shirley stated that they were prepared to match Drisooll to box Welsh for X5C0. Mr. Marks replied that, that would be good enough, but if Seaman Hayes defeated Dris- coll he did not think they could match Welsh to meet a beaten man. Mr. Shirlev; fhat would be immaterial for you as Ion- as the purse was guaranteed. Mr. Lyon: A better match for Welsh would be with Hayes if the latter beatrf Driscoll Mr. Tom Burns did not think a Welsh- Ilayes match would be the draw tha,t a, Welsh- Driscoil fight, would D", considering that Welsh had already beaten Hayes twice. Mr. George J :ikes> observed that if a good purse were offered it did not matter wlK-itber Hayes heat Driscoll or not In respect, to the venue of the proposed figbt, Mr. Marks said it did not follow that it would be at Mountain Asli. Of course, they would select the that would yield the best gate. Shirley said they wanted to ?ü on no matte:" what, was the result of the Ila.yes v. Driscoll contest He put it plainly whether Welsh's party, without contingencies, were prepajed to make a match tor t,$B fi1't Mon- day in March, or three weeks after the Dris- in ?,\Iareh.,or t,lir<,e w(,el, a i t?ci- the, Dris- Mr. Marks eaid that he and Fred Welsh had booked passages for America for the 9th of next month, but if it was worth while they would stay. Any good match would be worth their while. h. P. Driscoll: Well, you can't get matches every day for £ 1,0C0. At this; point it seemed that a match would be fixed, but then a fatal obstacle was met on the question of weight. Mr. Marks: Our conditions for a match with Driscoll are 9.,t. 4Jb. weighing in at, two o'clock and 96t.. 71b. weighing in at the ring- side. Mr. Shirley: If that is so wc have finished. We would be giving away four or five pounds at, 9st. 71b. ringside. AVe thought you were prepared that, Welsh should enter the ring at 9st. 41 b. Mr. Marks replied to the contrary, stating that, for three years he had been issuing challenges for Welsh at 9et. 710.. ringside or 9?t. 41b. weighing in at two o clock. From these terms he declined to budge. Neither party would make any concession, and the conference terminated. The natural outcome of this is that W elsb sportsmen will experience a keen dissapoint- ment. for it eeeme quite certain row that Welsh will go back to America without mMt- ing either Driscoll or Macfarland, for not one of the three cracks like giving away 2n ounce in weight or a minute in time. Mr. Harvey pointed out that if Driscoll wa" giving anything away in the matter of weight he might just as well go back to America and give weight away to the Battler at once. Anyhow. he is keen to get Driscoll over there, and if Drisooli considers what is good and well for him he will probably fall in with Mr. Harvey's views immediately he has met Hayes. There were offers on Thursday, by the way. to Let 100 to 40 ou Driscoll in his match with Hayes, but without any takers. TAN HAGUE'S Alt RIVAL AT CARDIFF. The Mexborough giant. Ian. Hague, arrived in Cardiff on Tnursday evening to complete Mr. Harry Mwrks's party for their proposed visit to America on the 9th of February. IIa.gus, who scales about, if" just now. looks as healthy as a trout, and in a brief conversation lie had with a ''Western Mail" representative, concludes that ho has a chance of attaching a few victories to justify the confidence that Mr. Marks and Fred Welsh express in him. Durirg the next few days he will take up his training in conjunc- tion with Fred Wel-h. The engagements at present in view for the Yorkshirema"! include G. probable fight in this country, and, possibly, a match in Paris with either Jim Stewart, Mo Russell, doe Jeanctte. or Kubiac. In America t.here are, of course, contests lore, aaid the advent of a, good heavy- weight will, of course, be hailerl with satis- faction not only on this side, but in America, too. 11-lien Hague defeated Moir for the English heavy-weight championship he was 15st 101b.. SO it will be seen there is plenty of stuff for his present managers to work on. When asked if he meant to take up train- ing seriouisly he set a. hard Yorkshire mouth and jaw and said, "I would not be here unless I did." Bith Fred Welsh a.nd Harry Marks express their unbounded confidence in the Yorksbire- mn. Mr. Marks e-ven going so far as to suggest that when he returns from Ame"ica he will bring back with him two world's oh.a,mpions-Fr-.L-d Welsh and Ian Hague. "BOYO" DRISCOLL OFF TO AMERICA. Another local boxer is leaving for the States. "Boyo" Driscoll, of Cardiff, having arranged with M.r. Charlie Harvey, the Ame- rican manager, to sail with him by the Man- retania to-morrow (Saturday). A farewrell .smoker" will be held at the Irish Club, Custom Ho'use-etreet. to-night.

This statement: is made here with confidence, because hundreds of parents have written to say their children were cured of one or another form of rickets by Scott's Emulsion. For example, Mr. A. H. Smith, wrote July 9th, 1909, from 67, Hinton Road, Herne Hill, S.E.: S "From the age of 12 months my youngest son suffered very sadly from rickets and general decline, but thanks alone to Scott's Emulsion there is no trace of rickets, or any other complaint. He is a fine boy of 2! years now. This trademark was on the enwision I bought" Presuming you wish to rid your child of rickets, and influenced by the statements here made decide to buy Scott's Emulsion, decide also, and this is equally import- ant, to GET SCOTT'S EMULSION. You may be asked to buy another emulsion and told that it is "just as good as Scott's." That proves that Scott's is THE Emulsion to buy, and proves also that substitute emulsions can only be sold on the reputation of Scott's Emulsion, substitute emulsions have no reputation of their own. That is why Scott's Emulsion cures and other emulsions do not' cure; .no other emulsion has yet been made that cures like Scott's cures! v Scott's Emulsion cures the disease—no matter the age of the patient—and will be approved by your Doctor for Rickets if you ask him.

By a London Scientist. Chas. Hyatt-Woolf, Esq., F.R.P.S.. F.R.S.L., Editor of Popular Science Sittings, writes a.s follows in his new book, Truths About Things We Live On and Daily Use":—"With a view to discovering a form of medicine needed to diminish congestion, aid expeetora, tion, and soothe the respiratory track, I ex- perimented in the laboratory with Veno'e Lightning Cough Cure and applied it in prac- tice. I found this remedy contained a variety of matters capable of affording relief in all those cases where coughing is a symp- tom. Xot only thie, but it is a distinct nerve scdative and tonio, and is not only appli- cable with advantage in cases of bronohial coughs, but also for stomach coughs. It would likewise have a certain value in con- eumption, it showed distinct ability to abate feverish symptoms, and in all cases to which I applied it the influence of \eno's Light- ning Dough Cure was most marked. This Cough Cure is very nicely compounded, so much so that it is even pleasant to take, its delightful flavour commending it to the most fastidious patient. It contains no opiate or anything that could effect harm." Take Veno's Lightning Cough Cure for all disea,sog of chest, thoat, and lungs in young or old. Price 9id., Is.
