It was McGuires habit, while stay

drink of cool water before going to

Often when the evenings were not
too cold, he would sit by the lake
shore for a half-hour, smoking and
watching its starlit or moon-Glittering
surface, and listening to the calls of
night providers.
In spite OF being an outlaw, devoid
of moral nature, and one who preyed
upon his fellow-man, he was not with
out sentiment, and the wild grandeur
Of these enclosing mountains, and the
sense of security they gave, were
pleasant to him. His life had been a
harsh and brutal one. He had dealt
in mans lust and love of liquor. He
measured all humankind by his own
standard OF right and wrong, and be.
lieved that he must rob others or they
would rob him. He had followed that
belief implicitly from the start, and
would so long as he lived. He felt
that every mans hand was against
him, and no reproaches of conscience
had resulted from his cold-blooded kill

able horror he had decreed for his own
child.
So vile a wretch seemed unfit for
of night beside this lake, and the stars
mirrored on its motionless surface,
soothed and satisfied him.
He had now and then another i'm
pulse-to some day take his savings
of many years, secreted here, and go
to some other country, assume another
name, and lead different life.
And now, while an unsupported
enemy was waiting for him to enter a
sleep that should know no waking, he
left his cave and seated himself on
shelf-like projection close to the lake,
which was deep here, and the ledge
shore sheer face rising some ten feet
above the water.
One hour or more this strange COM
POUND of brute and man sat there con-
templating the stars, and then he sud
denly detected a sound-only a faint
one, the mere click of one pebble
striking another
He arose and listened
Soon another soft, crushing sound
reached him. Some animal creeping
along in the passage between the
lodges, he thought.
He stepped quickly to the end Of the
shelf. On that instant a crouching
form rose upward and confronted him.
He had one moment only, but
enough to see a tall man a step be-
low him, the next a flash of splitting
fire, singing pain in one shoulder,
and this human panther Ieaped upon
Mcclure,
But life was sweet, even to Mcclure
and as he Srasped and struck at this
enemy in blind instinct of self-pres-
ervation as both closed in a death

came to him as a knife entered his
hcart-a yell of mingled hate and
deadly fear, as two bodies writhed on
the narrow shelf, a plugging sound, as
both struck the water below-and then
silence.
Death and vengeance were clasped
in one eternal embrace.

KEY TO AN ANCIENT
CALENDAR FOUND

LONDON, May PA key tc
Israel's ancient calendar has Just been
discovered In Egypt. e. B. Knobel
in paper read before the Royal
Astronomical society, described the
finding OF ancient Hebrew documents
by which has been established the
method OF time measurement among
the Israelites in the time of Nebuchad
nezzar.
Some papyri discovered at this
place and translated recently by Prof
Sayce and Mr.. Cowley, contain con
tracts dated according 10 both the
Egyptian and Jewish calendars. AS the
Egyptian calendar is perfectly well
known to us. II Is now possible to re-
construct the Jewish calendar.
Dir. Knobels reconstruction shows
that the Jewish calendar in use al
the period in question was one de-
rived, not from actual observation OF
the first appearance Of the new moon
but from calculation. This calcula.
ton was clearly based upon q knowl
edge OF the fact that 10 solar years
contain an exact number OF lunar
