Who shall describe the weird fancies
that torment q person in my situation;
The position of Cy Walters was such
that his shadow, huge, grotesque and
misshapen, stretched from the side Of
his chair to the opposite wall, where his
head, still bearing the SLOUGH bat,
doomed up like the crest of some noun.

the legs crossed, did not stir. Whenever

l resolutely held my gaze away from
the terrible bearded face for fully 10
minutes, during which my own pre-.
tense Of Inconsistencies continued.
Then I stole q glance at him and with
feelings that cannot be imagined per.
ceived that his eyes, too, were closed.
There was strong probability that
the fellow was as wide awake as ever,
for it was easy to understand that he
wished to induce an attempt on my
part to escape so as to gain the pretext
for winding up the business by shoot.

OF my nerves preferred he should do
so than for me to wait for the horrors
of the morrow.
For ten minutes ! did not remove my

and during that time he was as a dead
man, but whether really asleep or not

self to the test Of life OF death. was

1t will be perceived that for me to
escape from my jailers I must CROSS the

With preliminary glance around

hair on which they had been resting.
But for the heavy breathing which filled

gathered my muscles for the decisive
fort. My intention was that If detect.

past midnight it ceased. Probably it

toe without my shoes giving out any
noise Ten steps were necessary to take
me from my chair to the window,
through which I could feel the cool
breath Of the night stealing. It was
blowing gently upon the side Of the
sleeper, and with that propensity to no.
tice trifling incidents at the most crit
ioRl moments I saw in the dim light
long look Of hair at the temple of Archie
Hunter gently move and wondered
whether the refreshing touch of the air
would not recall his wandering senses.
My awful fear was that Cy Walters
would open his eyes and, instantly de-
teotiDg what was going on, shoot me
with lightninglike quickness before I
could spring out into the darkness.
Thrilled by this dread stopped at the
very edge Of the window and looked
searchingly at him.
So far as could judge lie was sunk
in as profound sleep as ever. My sur.
vey was but glance, when I turned
back and reached forward to rest my
hand on the sill preparatory to leaping
out. AS did so saw that my I'M

the deep gloom of the outside I saw the
twinkle Of a single star, low in the sky.
1t sent strange thrill through me, for
it seemed to whisper y hope.
At some distance from the window
was tree, one Of whose branches OBJ
truded in front Of the panes. The soft
night wind stirred it gently and at first
I thought the slight swaying was the
movement Of some person, but minute
later the explanation was manifest. The
stiffness grew so profound that the
rustling Of the branches occasionally
reached me, sad, mournful and hope.

Suddenly I shot glance into the

he was studying me as closely as be-

closed as if he were sunk in profound
slumber.
Yet it might be pretense on his part,
and not until fully ten minutes passed

pose so as to gain a glimpse of the
bearded face against the door. All, there
was no slumber there. His twinkling
gray eyes were as wide open as ever and
watching me like cat. He was q vet.

awake when the necessity existed.
But sleep is too insidious an enemy

for the rest which it brings. The sight
of the younger man unconscious gave
