pulled from the vault by the strong
hands of Anstruther and the detective.
This is old Tomasso Monaldi," says
Edwin shortly, who was supposed to

with white lips: This tarnation tower

stairs, carefully examining every ORR

loophOles too small to permit the exit
of man, and the masonry too solid to
be broken through in any ordinary
time, as the building is bare of tools
and weapons.

They have reached the upper room.
Anstruther has thrown off his coat and
vest, kicked off his shoes and taken off
his stockings. Toes will cling to the
rough stonework better than boots. He
picks up the letter and the concluding
sentences seem to make him crazy. He
springs to the window and a muttered
oaths parts his white lips, for he en-
counters a grillage of heavy iron so Sc
cureIy fastened on the outside that 1t
is impossible for him to make exit.
But even as Edwin struggles with
the grating, he utters low cry, half
of longing, half of despair.

vines and flowers, almost reclining in

the young wife looks like dream OF
love TO her despairing husband. Her
face is flushed, if not happily, at least
excitedly. To her, speaking-the dis

the gestures they are those of amity
is Count Cipriano Daneila, his eyes
sparkling vivaciously, his costume the
romantic one of Corsica.

frantically assaults the door again.
"Oh, l reckoned they'd be doing
something underhand to you," calls
Emory. Come down and help me out
first"

Il can't. Dash it, they've got leg

Emory kept his eyes open and done

ing to unloosen the irons from the
Americans legs.
They've got keys somewhere"
snarls Emory. Hang it. think of their
cheek, manacling a detective"
Edwin is up the ladder again. He
strikes another match and on the
ground story finds, after some little de-
lay. bunch of keys hanging on the
wall.
After some trouble with the locks,
which are rusty, 'Elijah's legs are re-
leased and he ascends with Edwin. his
jaws almost swapping with rage as he
tells his wrongs.

Tropez," he says. ~ had got onto
the elder man, CipriaHo, when, like a
darn fool, went on board of that big,
cursed fishing felucca to them, pre-
tending to want to get a job, thinking
would find out what the devil they
were driving at. That was the end of
me. I hadn't more than got in the
forecastle than l was covered with
two long knives, and that scar-faced
fellow said to me: The first time, you
were warned to keep out of this affair.
This is the second time They were
savage enough to kill me, but they sim

hold. and oh, what time / had as
their Internal vessel dashed about the
Mediterranean after you. When they
gave up chasing you they stopped here
and put me away carefully in that hole
down there"
Suddenly he cries: What are you
doing?" for Edwin has his hands in an
iron ring and is trying to pull up an
other trap door in the flooring.
Il want tools by which we can break
enough masonry from one of these
embrasures to get out" says the sailor.

he and the American gaze astounded
into the other vault.

as that of Marina's letter, makes the
young mans eyes roll in his head:

The sharp clang of the doors below
makes Edwin drop the letter and spring

Though he is quick, somebody Is
quicker. The strong doors are closed
AS he reaches the lower step, he hears
steel bars falling into their sockets out

creaky turning of a great key.

quarterback tones.
''Diable. not after having had sc

in almost Partisan French.
Without a word Anstruther dis
charges his revolver into the lock OF
the door, He has exhausted his three
remaining cartridges. when the im-
pingement of the bullets shows that the
lock is protected by steel and his at
tempts abortive.
He is interrupted by loud cries of ter

trap door in the flooring beneath his
feet. He pulls it up ann peers down.
His eyes glare into those of another
man gazing up from an underground
vault. Holding the match so that he
can see the face he gasps: Great guns,

C. C. Miller of near Sweet

day and dropped into the Inter
Ocean Office. MIR. Miller is
making arrangements to sell
some Of his personal effects. as
it is his intention to move to
Kingsville, Texas, as soon as
fall work is completed. He, his
father George, and brother r.
A., own 230 acres near that city.
MIR. Miller was in that country
in the spring of '06, and pur-
chased the land when it was
cheap. He says the country is
an elegant one, but of course
has it's drawbacks. It is nee
essary to go down about 1000
feet to get water, but when
struck it is a flowing well of soft
water. Also the land is covered
with what is known as 'tMos-
quito" tree, which must be grub
bed out before agriculture work
can commence. The crops con-
sist mainly Of vegetables in the.
winter, and corn and cotton ID
the summer. : IKingsville is only.
a short distance from the Gulf:
Of Mexico, and it is. said that
many tropical fruits can Be
raised there. !, I. Mr.. Miller saws
be made what he is now worth
10 this state, and that he isn't
going to sell his real estate Ia /
this county until he has lived at |
least several years iii his propos-|
ed new home in the south. He
and his family will leave here
about the first Of December.
