""Eo, I don't know him-never raw

with you to the hospital, II you like"
Now, In the sudden excitement OF TINS
matter, and in the sudden tragic ending
It had, the man had quite forgotten
where he should have8been at that mo-
ment, and for whom he should have
been waiting. He only knew that this
man had dashed put Of that mysterious
house, In apparently deadly fear, n
had gone plunging through the WIND
and the rain like q maniac; had met
with what might: have been his death In
that blind hurry. He wanted to know
more OF him-to see what the end OF
this business was to be. The policeman
only too gladly accepted his offer. and
they put the unconscious man in the
cab and rode away with. him.
Into the great, quiet, orderly building
THE man was carried. Some sort Of con-
s%ciousness had come upon him, and he
moaned f1tfully and flung his head from
side to side, and stared about him.
While he was being examined the po-
liceman glanced %curiously once or twice
at the, other man-partly because it
might be necessary, in the official sense,
to swear to him, at some time or other;
partly because the man was obviously
SO greatly perturbed by the accident.
He vas a tall man, as has been said
with well-cut features and a skin
which, though naturally clear, had been
tanned by long exposure to sun and
wind; the face had about 1t something
OF a.curious restraint, and something of
melancholy. For the rest, he was a
gentlemanly-looking fellow enough, well
dressed and with a smooth and easy
mode Of speech.
The examination was over, the grave
faced, business-like surgeon had pros
nounced the injuries severe, and had
given instructions to have the man
placed in a certain ward at once. AS
they We're moving him he suddenly
flung up one crushed hand and shrieked
out 'a-name:
Colbert Rickerby"'!
The tall man Of the tanned skin start
ed violently, and bent forward to look
al. the broken creature more closely; the
policeman meditatively fingered the
metal ventilator of the top of his he'll
met, and looked at the man they were
carrying away, musingly. "Now, I
wonder he said, whether that hap
pens to-be your name?."

door again and tell them to raise the
