THE RED CHANCELLOR.
THE RED CHANCELLOR. A ROMANCE, By SIR WILLIAM MAGNAY, Bart., Author of "The Heiress of the Season," "The Man-Trap," The Pride of Life, &0. I CHAPTER XXXVII-Continued, The Last Meeting. In talking to me like this he must have felt pretty confident of the difference between my na-Htra and his own; had the positions been reversed, little time would he have given me for parley, except, perhaps, aa a cat pro- longs a moose's agony. I. had evidently taken him by surprise, and so at a. disadvan- tage; no chance was left for him but to calculate upon my sense of chivalry. Chivalry with that murderous reptile! I wonder how I allowed such a. consideration to inflnenee me; but somehow it seemed hard to pull the trigger in cold blood. "Will you give me a chance, my dear Tyrrell?" he demanded again, but without the ugly grin. "Or are you going to shoot me here as I stand defenceless? If so, for Hea- ven's sake be quick about it." Instead of taking him at his word, I, like a fool, began to retort. The thought of Asta and all this loathsome brute had made her suffer came to my mind with the recollection of the pitiable state of feair she had shown that evening. "Chance!" I cried. "What chance did you mean to give me when you pressed me to eat poisoned sweetmeats at your cursed talble? What chance was I to have in the,, assassin's room you gave me to sleep in? What chance did you give that poor priest whom you decoyed to your devil's den—the man who, three hours after, was lying in his grave in the wood. You talk to me of—ah! He had suddenly stooped and made a des- perate rush at me. Perhaps he saw tha.t I was working myself up to do what I should have done long before. No doubt my vehemence had relaxed my alertness. His move was a clever one, for in his stooping position he offered a much worse mark for a shot, and greatly reduced the certainty of a mortal wound. In that one fierce crouching spring he was upon me and at close quarters, while my advantag-e was almost gone. I must have fired, but have no recollection of the shot. I only know that each seized the other's right wrist with the left hand. So he was safe from my revolver, and I from something J. oouaa see sinning In his grasp- I think the feeling uppermost in my mind at that supreme moment was one of bitter disgust at my own folly; bat. after the first pang of discomfiture, there was no room 'for any thought but of mastering the human hyena that bad fastened on me. It was evi- dent to me that I wae the stronger and more athletic toan, but then my adversary had the strength of desperation; he had gained the first advantage, and would naturally fight like a demon. It was scarcely violent struggle at ftrat. We stood for a while wrestling warily, con- fining oar efforts almost entirely to the arms, I can eee now Forello's horrible faoe close to mine; it was as though in those critical moment- every evil passion of his life, every prima, every knavery, spraaig its index into his countenance. If ever the Devil looked out of a man's eyes, there he was in that glare of desperate vioious hatred and rage. Soon I put forth a greater effort, and to my relief it confirmed the idea thait my adversary's strength was Ieee than my own. I forced him backwards step by step till I held him against the well. Suddenly he pressed himself close against me. struggling furiously to force towards me the hand I held. In it was an object which scarcely suggested a. weapon- A short metal instrument, square at the butt, tapering to a very fine point. I could not tell what it actually was. but the fact of the Count's using it was enough to give me a shrewd idea of its purpose. At any rate. I thought I would make trial of its effectiveness on its owner. eo. holding away from the sting-like point. I forced Furello round from the wall, then against the table, then back- warde upon it, where naturally he was at my mercy. Then I set myself to force down the hand with its mysterious weapon upon him. As he realised my intention he, even at the disadvantage of that almost helpless posi- tion, struggled with such convulsive fury that for a. time he baffled my purpose. Then gradually my greater strength told, the point | [ was forced down till it entered his cheek. "A h!" Such a cry. as the stylet dug into the flesh. The grip om my revolver hand relaxed so that with a sharp wrench I could release it. The fingers of the Count's other hand still rigidly clutched the strange weapon. I had now the pistol free and pressed to his temple. "Let go!" I said, "or rll blow year brains out!" "Shoot!" he cried. "Shoot! I defy you, cursed Englishman! You dare not!" He raised his head and tried furiously to bite my hand. I beat his head back with the revolver and drove by sheer weight the styllt into his neck. He screamed and wriggled like a wounded animal, but I had no pity for him, only heartily wishing the part I was forced to play had fallen to another man's lot. As I held him there an idea crossed my mind and determined me to get from him the murderous little weapon which he held so tenaciously. After a sharp struggle I suc- ceeded in unloosening the nervous fingers, and, obtaining possession of the instrument, flung it to the farther end of the room. The Count now lay absolutely still, except for his heaving chest. Suspicious of his fur- ther power for mischief I began to feel for any weapon he might have about him. There was a revolver in a pocket of his coat. I took it out, and then drew a little away, content- ing myself with watching keenly for any sus- picious movement. He lay quite passive on the table just as I had forced him down: on his back with his legs dangling, his feet scarcely touching the floor. It seemed as though all the fight was beaten out of him. The situation was a hide- ous one for me, and I began to speculate how long it would last and how it would end, when suddenly a oonvulsive shudder seemed to run I through the man as he lay before me. His hands opened and clenched thrice, then I another convulsion shook him and he called me by name. "Shoot me!" he gasped in a voice thick and hardly frecognisable. "If you are a man send a bulled through me and put me out of my agony." The conjecture in my mind now became a certainty; I returned no answer; simply waited in silence. Another spasm seemed to madden him. "Shoot me! Shoot me, curse you!" he cried, breaking out into a string of hideous unptre- eauou& J said nothing, and sat quite still. "Tyrrellho screamed, and then, by what seemed a terrible effort, sat WrMbL I sprang irgm JB7 chafer a horror. The faoe, which had been hidden fom me as htt lay, was now dark purple, almost black. The blazing eyes protruded from their sockets, the swollen lips, jet black, were drawn back into a frightful grin; the man was a human being no longer; it seemed as though he were already a devil, as hideous as the imagination of man ever conceived. The sight brought back to me poor Szalay's appearance in his death agony, but the effect of the poison here was indescribably more fearful. For the first time in that perilous half-hottr I felt fear—sickening fear. The thing oppo- site to me was so unutterably loathsome that the very idea of his breath reaching me horrible. I recall that in sheer panic I raised my revolver, but before I could fire the Count, with a sound of words which the tumid tongue would not utter, fell back. I could endure the terrible sight no longer, but rushed from the room, locking the door behind me. When I had roused the hotel people and the door was opened again, Count Furello lay still on the table—dead. So perished this villain by the horrible means he had prepared for me. When I think of that hideous death, the ide& of my narrow escape sends a shiver through me. When we came to examine the lethal instrument which inflicted it, we found it to be a hollow stiletto with a. collapsible handle, this form- ing a receptacle for the virulent poison with which it was charged. A slight prick, as it must have been in the case of poor Szalay, would be enough to cause death, amd the venom acted so rapidly that a remedy was out of the question. A very pretty and effec- tive implement of the great Chancellor's vaunted statecraft! It appeared that the Count had taken a room on the same floor, whence it had been easy for him to slip into mine and await my return. But Von Lindheim's letter saved me. There was, of course, an inquiry into the facts of that strange and appalling tragedy. Happily for me. all the circumstances oon- firmed my straightforward story, which was further corroborated by the dead man's ante- cedents. It appeared that before he quitted Italy several mysterious deaths of the same character as this one had occurred, with which he had seemed closely connected; but nothing beyond strong suspicion had been fastened upon him. But at last the terribly appropriate retribu- tion had overtaken him; and surely no man had ever greater cause than I to be t&ankful for the gift of a etrong arm and an athletic frame. With that night the story of my series of adventures eafe. I had certainly ha4 OW til of them, and ever sinbe then my ap that sort, of thing has been considerably leM ketn. But sparti from the more selfish advantage I derived, the winning of a most charming wife, it has always been a satisfaction to me to reflect that what I did served a useful purpose in ridding the world of a gang of precious vil- lains. I have since visited the Monastery of St. Tranquillin in the Geierthal; it is now the most innocent abode of a prosperous far- mer, who occasionally entertains stray sports- men in rather different fashion from his pre- decessors, and is, happily, ignorant of what lies beneath the ground he plods over, or the dark history of the rooms in which his child- ren play. After the death of Count Rallenstein the rule of the Jaguar was known no more, and Von Lindheim, after spending several- months with us in England, was able to return to his estate, there to live in peace and safety. From the subsequent marriage of the poor Princess Casilde there sprang, as every student of European affairs knows, the consort of one of the most illustrious rulers; but the keenest and most diligent of students has never found the name Von Orsova in her family tree, and yet that was undoubtedly the Princess's name before her marriage. Still. I have made a journey, more than once, to lay a wreath on the grave of the hand- some Rittmeister von Orsova, the man whose fate, though it brought terror and death to others, yet gave supreme happiness to me.

THE TWO COSTERS.
THE TWO COSTERS. Mr. Albert Chevalier tells a. richly funny story regarding an incident in his career which startled one of the fraternity he so inimitably depicts upon the stage. Once, when his engagements each night covered a couple of musio-halls situated respectively in Edgware-road and Hammersmith, he found that the time intervening between the one "turn" and the other was not sufficient to allow of his changing into everyday attire. Accordingly he was accustomed to run across to Edgware-road Station apparelled in his coster'a costume. One night, as he applied at the booking-office for "a firstclass to Ham- mersmith," there stood by him the "real. genuine article," whose clothes were enly slightly less outre than the comedian's. Chevalier's "rig-out" delighted him. and he wae just about to cultivate the artist's acquaintance when he heard that extra- ordinary application for a first-lass ticket. "What!" exclaimed the genuine .,iLl!u, "that cove wants a first-class to miifs Here, mubteyl-tumiuc to the bookiDc-derk- "give 1U a Pullman to WhibeahapeU"
