And here, since they were alone in the
carriage, and had still a good twenty
miles to go before they reached their first
stopping point, no man can say how rap
idly and how happily O'Rourke's fate
might have been decided, if only the ad-
venture had happened in England, where
the guards refrain from walking about
the outside of their trains during transit
But at this instant the door swung open
and the ticket collector entered, and hav-
ing with a perfect stony gravity punched
their tickets, swung himself out through
the door on the other side of the car
riage and went on his way with broad
grin. OsRourke saw the grin, and for a
moment, though he was fairly good-tem-
pered man as a general thing, felt venge-
full. The obvious impossibility of pur-
suing the ticket collector along the foot
board did nothing to assuage his anger for
the time.

The two were seated in Frost's dingy
apartment. The tenant of the room was
better dressed than usual, his clothes
were better brushed, and his linen was
sitter and whittier than ordinary. A tall,
shiny silk hat cooked lazily over one eye
gave him Z rakish air, and as he leaned
back in broken down rocking chair, with
his heels on the window sill, he contem-
plated the trim and well polished boots
which ornamented his feet with a look
of obvious satisfaction. The evening sun
shone through the dirty, uncurtained win
dow, and gave his sallow skin an unac-
customed glow.
What do you want to get at, at all?"
demanded Frost. What do you want
