that something horrible had happened.
She went to the window, touched the
shade, which disappeared upward i'm
mediately, and lifted the sash. The
front of square building in the court
house square was bright with lights,
and figures were passing in and out of
the Main street doors. She remember
ed that this was the Jail.
"Claudine!' The voice Of the hus-
band Of Claudine was like the voice
of one lamenting over Jerusalem.

"But, Joe, if they git me, what'n she

not after this
The door opened, and the two men
came out, Joe with his hand on the
others shoulder. The splotches had
gone from Happy's face, leaving it an
even, deathly white. He did not
glance toward Ariel. He gazed far
beyond all that was about him, and
suddenly she was aware Of a great
tragedy. The little mans chin trem-
bled, and he swallowed painfully
Nevertheless he bore himself upright
and dauntlessly as the two walked
slowly to the door, like men taking
part in some fateful ceremony. Joe
stopped upon the landing at the head
Of the stairs, but Happy Fear went
on, dumping heavily down the steps.

tits better for you to go alone. Don't
you worry. I'll see you through. It
will be all right" r.
Gust as you say, Joe," a breaking
voice came back from the foot Of the
steps-"just as you say"
The lawyer turned from the landing
and went rapidly to the window beside
Ariel. Together they watched the
shabby little figure cross the street
below, and she felt an infinite pathos
gathering about it as it paused for a
moment, hesitating, underneath the arc
lamp at the corner. They saw the
white face lifted as Happy Fear gave
one last look about him; then he set
his shoulders sturdily and steadfastly
entered the door Of the Jail.
Joe took deep breath. "Now We'll
CO." he said. II must be quick"
"What was it?'' she asked tremulous-
~ as they reached the street. "Can
you tell me?''
Nothing; just an old story"
He had not offered her his arm, but
walked on hurriedly pace ahead of
her, though she came as rapidly as she
could She put her hand rather timidly
on his sleeve, and without need of
more words from her he understood

"And there's handsome roundabout

':Wasn't it!' she agreed cheerfully.
"And he trusted the Judge absolutely.
I don't, you see."
He gave her thoughtful look and
nodded. "No, he isn't good man." he
said, ''not even according to his lights,
but doubt if he could have managed
to get away with anything Of conse-
quence after he became the admins

"Quiet!' His voice rang like shot,
and on the instant his hand fell sharp
~ across the speakers mouth. I'm
there, Happy!'
He threw an arm across the little
mans shoulders and swung him toward
the door Of the other room.
Happy Fear looked up from beneath
the down bent brim of his black SLOUGH
hat. His eyes followed an imperious
gesture toward Ariel, gave her a brief,
CHASTITY stare and stumbled into the in
ner chamber.
"Wait!' Joe said cavalierly to Ariel.
He went in quickly after Mr.. Fear and
closed the door.
This was Joseph Louden, attorney at
law. And to Ariel it was like new
face seen in flashlight-not at all the
face of Joe. The sense of his strange
ness, his unfamiliarity in this cleo
trical aspect, overcame her. She was
possessed by establishment. Did she
know him so we'll after all? The
strange client had burst in, shaken be
yond belief with some passion un.
known to her, but Joe, alert and mas
terful beyond denial, had controlled
him instantly; had swept him into the
other room as with a broom. Could
it be that Joe sometimes did other
things in the same sweeping fashion?
She heard match struck In the next
room and the voices Of the two men
Joe's, then the others, the latter at
first broken and protestive, but soon
rising shrilly. She could hear only
fragments. Once she heard the client
cry, almost scream, "Joe, I thought
Claudine had chased him around there
to do mev' And instantly followed
Louden's voice:
STEADY, Happy, steadyv'
The name "Claudine" startled her,
and, although she had had no COM
prehension Of the argot Of Happy
Fear, the sense Of a mysterious catas-
trophe oppressed her. She was sure

Harry Bakers stock appears to be
rising as the day of battle draws near
ana many of Attell's staunchest adj
nerents are wondering just what Abe
thinks way down deep in his heart.
Jimmy Walsh, who lost to Abe a
snort time ago, Is among the number
imbued with great respect for At

work the other day and was much i'm
pressed with Harrys training. Hes
a great little fellow" remarked Walsh.
and not so little either. l don't see
how he Will be able to remain in the
featherweight division long.
Maybe Baker will win, but I like
Attelrs chances. That fellow Is the
slickest man ever met in the ring. He
does not care a snap for the first blow,
but watches like a cat for what you
are going to do on the second lead. If
Baker wins, my hat off to him, for
what Attell can't do in the ring isn't
worth doing"
Jim Jeffries has not yet officially
accepted an offer of the Pacific Athletic
club, though there is no doubt but
that JEFF will be third man in the ring.
