Drunk! Not a bit of it. Did you

tell you 1t was a put up Job. Torrevo
knew you always looked at the in
voices and tally. and he played this
little game for you to see how well the
boy wrote. He knew your anxiety to
get the work done well would do the
rest. But what's the use standing here
talking? He's gone. and getting farther
away every minute
I'VE must follow-but in which d.
rection?"
In which direction? Why. in what
direction would he go but toward his

He may have gone toward Buenos
Ayres."
mot he. What could he do there?
I tell you, the bargain included the
safety Of Torrevo. The boy has gone
back to Join Torrevo, and the Black
Cat will sail for Buenos Ayres with
these two precious fellows on board"
II will order horses. We can reach
the Black Cat before morning. They
will not sail till then. We may even
overtake the boy"
Now that his stupor was over, Elvin
could think and act quickly. He re-
allied the danger in which he and his
son stood as long as this intrepid and
intelligent young American was alive
and at large. He ordered horses to be
saddled, and, after a drink to brace
their nerves, father and son sat out on
their errand-two men. to run down
and kill boy.
There was moon. and the way was
easily made. The horses were put to
their utmost, and mile after mile was
covered. but no Rob was seen.
Suddenly Starne drew up and called
to Elvin.

That is true. Also said Torrevo.
with an imperturbability that was
amazing. she married Senior Clever
dale after my brother died"
But this boys name is Cleverdale."
"Yes, they gave him that. He was
only year old when my brother died."
But you sent him to me to spy, and
report all to Horton"
Captain. you are mistaken. I did
not send him to you at all. You saw
his handwriting and took him. Did l
say for you to take him?"
Enough Of this talk!" exclaimed
Starne. You have told us pack OF
lies. know that Horizons sister was
never married but once, and that time
1t was to Cleverdale. Torrevo. you are
a traitor and you must pay the penalty.
Where is that boy?"
That is what l was going to ask
you You took him. l want him back.
He is very valuable to me on the
schooner

again!" shouted Starne.
Torrevo's quick eye saw the CLEAN
of pistol. He had none himself. but
in the twinkling of an eye he had pro-
duced a long knife. and sprang upon
Starne. Starne was still In the saddle.
and all Torrevo could do was to slash
at his legs. Starne aimed and sent
bullet into Torrevo's heart"
"One traitor less" he said, calmly.
as Torrevo fell on the ground dead.
What glorious liar that fellow was.
He would have been worth something

tions Of the country has been traced
by physicians and sanitarians in many
instances directly to the moldy and
rotting layers of paper and paste
which cover the walls of many houses.
The practice Of laying layer after layer
of paper on a wall. using common

create homes for disease germs. Peo-
Pile could not do more to effect such a
result II they tried. The rotting vege-
table matter affords caves from which
are ready to dart forth the infection
at every opportunity. There Is no ex-
cuse for this practice. as walls and

BE ready for treachery." said
Starne, Have your pistol in your
hand. This fellow must be up to mis-
chief"
Torreyo saw them coming, but
walked on as II he feared nothing.
Even had he stood in fear of his life
there was no place to hide.
"Well," said Elvin. maintaining an
outward coolness he did not feel.
what are you doing here? l thought
YOU we're to go to Montevideo."
True, Captain Elvin. l am going.
But thought perhaps my nephew
would be done with his new duties by
now, and, as he has become very vall-
able on board l am taking walk out
to your place to get him."
"Your nephew! Ha! That's good.
And have you not seen that dear
nephew of yours tonight?"
II have not, captain. Else why would
I be walking out to see him now. l
have not been near your place this
night"
mo! And neither has he! Look
here, Torrevo. what is this game you
are playing"
"Game? What game? What do you
mean?"
Torrevo's black eyes glistened with
suspicion as he looked from one to the
other. He readily saw that something
unusual had happened. and from their
words he believed they had discovered
Rob's identity and his own duplicity.
You know well enough what I
mean. You are a traitor.
THAT is what the Judge said when
was convicted. That was five years
ago."
"Yes, you were traitor to your
friends then, and you are traitor to
your friends now. Did you think you
could hoodwink us? l knew that boy
was Horizons nephew"
$50 did 1" said Torrevo, stolidly.
but you told me-" said Elvin, chok-
ing with rage, and made worse by Tor
revo's coolness; you told me that he
was your own nephew"
"Certainly-and SO he is"
Both Elvin and Starne stood aghast
at this. This was the most monument
al cheek they had ever seen.
HE is Horizons nephew and mine
Also" said Torrevo, as II it was mat
ter of no Importance. You see, cap
tain, Horizons sister married my
brother"
"Liar!" shouted Starne. Horton

York, and her name Is Cleverdale."

there was an agreement between them

II so. you will know what to do with

evil laugh. III kill him with his eyes

The two men parted, Starne going
on foot toward Black Cat Bay. and Ell
win returning to his headquarters,
leading Lemuel's horse.
But where was Rob Cleverdale.
while Elvin. Starne and Torrevo were
looking for him in vain?
He was on his way to the BLACK
Cat" as Starne suspected, but, being
ignorant of the road, he had gone a
little out of his way. and thus missed
Torrevo.
| EARLY in the evening, when Elvin
thought he had gone to bed. the cour-
ageous young American had slipped
out of the window, which was not
more than five feet from the ground,
and had fortunately chosen a moment
when there was no one around to see
him. Finding all clear. he had shaped
his course as we'll as he knew how,
for Black Cat Bay, and started of on
run. He kept up this gait for some
time and then rested. There was no
sight of pursuers, 80 he trudged on
again. keeping the direction, as he
thought. straight to the river. But he
did not travel as straight as he
thought he did. He made quite de-
tour to the north, thus missing Tor
revo. but toward morning reached the
river short distance above the bay.
There was an island, quite. a noun
tain, out in the river, which could
be seen from the entrance to Black
Cat Bay, and Rob could see 1t from
the point where he met the river. From
its position he knew he was too high
up and went down toward the aEchor-
age.
