fully suppressing every vestige Of
emotion, will you lend me hand

The detective stumbled over his

Of his neck. Then he went away and

herself.

dark car.
Hickey, by firing prematurely, lent
him adventurous aid. The criminal re.
piled with spirit, aiming at the flash,
his bullet spattering against the back
wall of the shaft. Hickey's next bullet
rang with bell-like note against the
metal-work, Anisty's presumably went
wide-though Maitland could have
sworn he felt the cold kiss Of its
breath upon his cheek. And the lighted
cage rocked past, and up.
Maitland needed no admonition to
pursue; his blood was up, his heart
singing with the lust of the man.hunt.
Yet Anisty was rapidly leaving them,
his car soaring at an appalling pace.
Towards the top he evidently made
some attempt to slow up, but either
he was ignorant of the management Of
the lever, or else the thing had got
beyond control. The cage rammed
the buffers with crash that echoed
through the sounding halls like peal
of thunder-claps; it was instantane
ously plunged into darkness. There
followed splintering and rending
sound, and Maitland, heart in mouth,
could make out dimly dark, falling
shadow in the further shaft. Yet ere
it had descended score of feet the
safety-clutch acted and. with third
tremendous jar, shaking the building,
the car halted.
Hickey and Maitland were then some
five floors below. "stop 'er at 49," or
dered the detective. There was Tilt
of exultancy in his voice. 1--WE got
him now, all right, all right. He'll try
to get down by-There!" Overhead
the crash Of q gate forced open was
followed by scurry Of footsteps over
the thing. "stop 'er and we'll head
him off. So now-eeeasy!"
Maitland shut OF the power - the
car reached the nineteenth floor.
Hickey opened the gate and jumped
out. "Shut that" he commanded.

"stop that there cart"
Hickey's stentorian command had
no effect; the block Of light continued
to fall with undated speed.
The detective wasted no more
breath. As the other car swept past,
Maitland was shocked by report and
fash beside him. Hickey was using
his revolver.
The detonation was answered by
cry, scream Of pain, from the lighted
cage. It paused on the instant, like
bird stricken awning, some four
floors below, but at once resumed its
downward swoop.

"Steady!" cautioned Maitland, de.

but it's arrival at the street level was

a brief fusillade of shots-perhaps
five in all-and the clang of the gate
Then, like a ball rebounding, the cage
swung upwards again, hurtling at full
speed.
Evidently Anisty had been received
In force which he had not bargained
for.
Maitland instinctively reversed the
lever and sent his own car upward
again, slowly, waiting for the other to
overtake it. Peering down through
the iron lattice-work he could indis.
tinctly observe the growing cube of
light, with dark shape lying huddled
in one corner of the floor. A second
figure, rapidly taking shape as Anisty's,
stood by the controller, braced against
the side Of the car, one hand on the
lever, the other posing a shining
thing, the flesh-colored oval of his face

ing, until at the end the crowd roared
its approval and the dancers disap.
peared among the spectators.
Political society at the picnics, DEM
ocratic as it seemed at first blush, had
its lines of demarcation, which were
quite noticeably drawn. The wife and
daughters of the ''big boss" were on
hand, together with the women-folks
of the various holders, but they
did not mingle with the average lady
picnickers. They sat by themselves
in something of exclusive grandeur,
and were pointed out by the more
ordinary of the merry-makers to their
companions.
Sometimes a possible presidential
candidate graced the occasion by his
presence and consented to hand out a
sample of silver-tongued oratory. But
never heard one yet who could draw
away any of the attendance at the
baseball game or the fat women's race.
There's limit, even to oratory.
Great was the CONSERVATION when.
as sometimes happened, the food
gates of heaven opened and drowned
the picnic grounds. The last political
picnic l attended commenced on a
very threatening day, and at last the
clouds seemed to make up their minds

taken alarm with a number of others
and had gone down the track to where
the first train to town was stationed.
The crowd got there and jammed the
train instantly. Just opposite the pic

was a wide platform, uncovered, on
which stood hundreds who were wait.

as we passed the picnic grounds hun

drenching showers in white dresses
that stuck to their limbs and straw
hats that were being soaked to ruin.
But the train went past regardless OF
their yells, and as it went by the car
windows were raised and the chorus
of the latest song was waited into
their ears:
