The streets were full of peopie-strangely
fun of women and children, Eartram
thought as he darted into a dark alley TO
avoid a group of merry shoppers. He had
forgotten that it was the evening before
Christmas
At the new ParnasSus theater Maxwell
and his wife were playing. Bartram had
planned to meet his enemy at the door or
the theater. BY one well-aimed thrust he
hoped to cancel the deadly obligation. But
the plan had failed. Maxwell. always alert
and suspicious, had evidently seen him
and entered by another door.
Disappointed, the cripple stole away. He
crossed the city, using the least frequented
streets. murmuring 10 himself: Tonight
1t shall be tonight or never.
The house that Bartram sought was a
cottage that set hack little distance from
the street. He hobbled up TO the porch
where he rested for a few minutes He
never used car or cab. "A life for a
life" he whispered TO himself 1T was
the old law. 1t is the law OF nature. 1t
Is just"

Dante and lived among kings and heroes.
His fame had preceded him 10 North

while the audience waited.

Of manner that was always noted by the

Their eyes met IN a flush of rosy light
that darted out Of n suddenly opened door.

unutterable delight.
Meanwhile people continued TO pour into

late corners in unexpected vacancies. While
rows of heads arranged themselves In two
great semi-eircies under the galleries. Al
