THE KING'S ROSE DANO

By GEORGE GRIFFITH. fCopyright, 1898, by the Author.]

Day by dav, etors by stone, the par- cel had increased, and every one of the now splendid collsetion of gems repre- sented not wily so many pounds eterling in hard cash when once successfully translated from the Kimberley com- pound and sorting houses te the outsid« world, but also many moments of desper- ste yet skillfully hidden anxiety, during which the fickle needle of fate bad swayed to and fro between two poles of fertune and ruin.

Some wen in Frank Ridley’s position —and he was one of the most trusted sorters in camp—would have taken the stones out one by one, or eaployed Kaffirs to take them from bim after they had been searched, and pase them direct to one of the illicit dealers ont- side, but that was not his way. He had no other confidaut than his own con- science, not always an approving one, but at any rate one that would not give hin away

To have taken the stones out one by one would only have multipiied the risk of discovery and ruin by the num- ber of them, for the possession of a single illicit diamond would have meunt disgrace and penal servitude jast as certainly as woula the discovery o2 his person of the whole £20,006 or £80, - 000 worth of gems—the very pick of the Kimberley mine output for nearly six monghs past.

So one afternoon he made up his mind that he had tempted the fates far enough, and at 6 that evening be walk- ed off to bis lodgings with his heart in his mouth and a fortune in the liniug of his somewhat shabby felt wideawake.

That night, albeit with some Jittly fear and tremling, he permitted bim- self the Juxury of a few minutes’ oxain~ ination of his plunderin bulk and an estimate of its value, not to him, but to the more fortunate man who shor!d sucveed in getting the parcel through safely to London or Amsterdam. If he ceonld only do that himself, be would never need to do another day’s work in the world, but t* was an employee, a sorter, aud therefore a marked man, and the secret ramifications of the won- derful eyste:n which inclosed him and gy! like hi> cs in a net were many and wide.

No, that risk was too great, consider- tng that he could now make £4,090 or £5.000 in uu horr or s9, endat the same time transfer i.)] hig risc and Nabijity to some one elie, and fo back to his

work with a light heart and, in & cer . 4,

tain sense, a clesr couscie:: >, :

Yet there was one w2aguificent : use diamond, which must have weighed somewhere between 40 aud 50 cirates, which he would Gearly have loved te see nicely cut and poli: bed and glitter. ing op the neck or in the hair of a cer- tain well Joved some one far away in old Carlisle, but be knew well enough that there was not another of its size and color in the world. The nearest to it wagian the De Beers collection, and the mere possession of it by any one bné a monarch or a millionaire would mean jaet what bis own possession of it meant, so there wae no use thinking about that.

With something very like a sigh for the unattainable possibilitias of Lis en far successful theft, he tied up the gems in a bit of dirty rag and stuffe) thie into the toe of a rather dilapidated Wellington boot. Then he had a wash and a change and went for a waik down town.

On his way along Stockdale street he chaaced to mect «. well dressed, dapper looking little men, who nodded to him as one might do toa casual acquaint- ance, and eaid in a quick, chirpy sort of tana:

‘*How do, Ridiey? Going strong, eh”

‘*Pretty well, Mr Muratti,’’ he re- plied, with a quick look up ané down the street. ‘‘Returne are looking up again. We've bad some very pretty finds the last day or two.’’

“Oh, glad to hear it, even from a men who wastes his opportunities as idiotically as youdo! Anything psar- ticnlarly choice’ ’

‘‘Well, yes. Are you doing anything in secondhand boots just now, Mr. Muratti?’’

It may here be conveniently explain- ed that the gentleman with whom young Ridley bad thus falien into con-
