he asked: :.
"There was another lady-she IS
vounp-with Mrs. Loring. Has she
departed?"
aOh. no. She will remain here for
for some time"
"Ah!"
The tone gave no reason to suppose
that he gauged my interest in the
young woman, although I suspected
that he measured it accurately.
"Have you any commander" asked,
rather hastily rising and moving to.
ward the door.
"None."
He, too, rose, with the intention OF
following me to the door and barring
1T after 1 hac passed out. His move
ments were slow, however, and had
drawn the bolt and turned the knob
before he was fairly out of his chair.
In an instant the door swung back
under a violent thrust from without,
and I was seized by powerful man,
who hurled me from him with such
force that reeled against the table.
AS 1 caught at it for support, I saw
Lamar step back to the wall and with
motion like fash for quickness
press the knob, the use of which he
had explained after my discovery of
the wire across the marsh. Then, with
oil his habitual GOODNESS, he returned
to his chair, and sat facing the in
truders.
Three men had forced their way into
the room, and, having locked the door
behind them, were now ranged against
the table, Slaring at Lamar like tigers
ready to spring upon their prey. My

aAsailant was of medium height, but
heavily built lie was swarthy, black
m,lstached and black haired, with a
face which, under the influence Of pas
sion, suggested little more than brute
ferocity He was roughly dressed, in
this respect differing widely from his
companions, whose garments, though
evidently designed for hard service,
were of costly material. One of these
men was young, hardly more than
boy-a remarkably comely fellow, with
clean-cut features and q dark clear
skin. The third man, who seemed to
be the leader of the raiders, was tall
and sinewy. His piercing eyes looked
out from under heavy brows; q long
mustache failed to hide the firm mouth.
There was about this man an air of
authority and u solderly bearing which
more than suggested military training.
None of the three displayed weapons,
though it was not easy to suppose that
they had ventured unarmed on their
mission.
The peril Lamar had dreaded had
come upon him; the enemy he had fed
from had found him at last. With all
my experience Of his marvellous nerve,
/ was amazed at the unshrinking cour-
age with which he confronted his foes.
Not muscle of his face quivered. The
only change I could mark was in his
eye; the old look of the fugitive had
gone, and in its place was the fierce
light of desperate hate.
For a time, which seemed almost an
eternity, though probably it could have
been measured in seconds, no one spoke.
Then the tall stranger, after motion
ing to his companions to change their
places-a ma.neuver which brought the
STRIPPING opposite me, as stood at La
mars right-addressed the master OF
the house, pouring out upon him in tho
native tongue of both of them a stream
OF invectives, as could guess from an
occasional expletive of which caught
the meaning. Az he spoke, half
smothered curses broke from the
others. The man who had thrust me
back seemed to be beside himself with
rage, while / could see the fingers of the
youth working convulsively, as if in an
ticipation of the moment of closing
about Lamnr's throat.
When the first burst of passion had
spent itself, the spokesman began what
appeared to be the recital of some ter
rible story. More than once he paused
dramatically, but only to proceed with
renewed fierceness. Withal, he made
slow work of it--no doubt for the joy
of prolonging his enemy's ordeal-for
his tale was still unfinished when the
only reinforcement we cou1d hope for
arrived. There was the sound of n
door thrown open, then quick steps as
the newcomer crossed the kitchen, and
then johnson burst into the room.
With a bound he was beside Lamar,
painting from his run, but quite pre-
pared to take hand in whatever might
be doing.
1t was q strange scene that the lamp
shone down supon. There we were,
three to three, ranged on either side of
the table, the attacking force no longer
outnumbering the defenders, but, of
course, far better prepared for a. strug-
gle. They had blundered in delaying

certainly. We should not think of
leaving you before daybreak."
"That will SUFFICE" he answered.
"For the present, 60 to my room"
johnson, what do you make OF all
this?" asked, when Lamar had left us.
"Not much," he answered. "'cept
twas a close shave for the boss. l

locked drawer if ever he wanted to get

Divide the County?

Under the head Divide the County
the Belmar Coast Echo says:
The tax rate of Asburv Park this
year is $22. so per 81 900 as against
$3.50 for 1895 While the borough
assessment is a trifie below that of
last year the special school, road and
poor taxes are higher AT meeting
held on Monday evening the borough
council of Asbury Park called down
the back county assessors with a
strict eve to business have decreased
township valuations, thus raising the
tax percentage Mayor Tenbroeck
characterized the scheme as whole
sale robbery.
Other members of the committee
used language scarcely less forcible.
Mr.. Kirkbride thought the question
should be referred to the State Board
of Taxation for arbitration. He
said Asbury Parks valuation was an
honest one and that the books and
duplicates were open for inspection,
and asked why Asbnry Parks valu-
alton should be increased and Shrews-
bury's and Oceans decreased. AS a
matter of fact one property in
Shire wsbury had justified a larger in
crease than could equitably be given
to the whole of Asbury Park Shrews-
bury and Ocean were growing richer
every year, and yet their valuations
We're decreased at the expense of the
shore districts.
Messrs. Kroehl, kirkbride and
Harvey were appointed committee
to bring the matter before the State
Board of Taxation.
